Rong'er thought to himself: At this moment, I understand a principle. Sometimes, the Emperor's love isn't all of me, but rather, his protection … Especially the Emperor's pet … I was so touched...

After arranging everything properly, the imperial carriage set off on its journey in February. A group of people majestically headed east, passing through the mountain customs to pay respects to Fu Ling and Zhao Ling. In early March, a group of people arrived in Shengjing.

She remembered that Xuan Ye had once wanted to bring her with him on his first east patrol after coming to the Qing Dynasty. The Emperor had said that this place was the capital of the Qing Dynasty and was the place where the Qing Dynasty originated, but she was too worried about the fact that she was unable to go with Long Qian. She didn't expect that she had finally arrived here after almost ten years. The Emperor lived in the Qingning Palace of Shengjing Palace, while Rong'er was arranged to stay in the Guanzi Palace. The Imperial Noble Concubine Yi stayed in the Qilin palace, the Imperial Concubine Wen stayed in the Yanqing Palace, and the Imperial Concubine Yi stayed in the Yongfu Palace.

The design here was more like the layout of the old Manqing house. The kang was shaped like a "kang" and the main hall that Rong'er lived in had a view of the Emperor's Qingning Palace. As Rong'er was observing the situation, the palace maid, Xiao Qing, who accompanied Rong'er, came in from outside the house and walked towards Rong'er excitedly, calling out, "Master, master …"

Rong'er looked at her and chuckled, "What's wrong? What's so happy about it? "

"Mistress, your servant just chatted with the people in this palace for a while. Do you know who used to live in this palace?" Little Qing happily said.

Hearing Xiao Qing's question, Rong'er couldn't help but think deeply for a moment. She raised her head and asked in disbelief, "It can't be that Chen Fei, Hai Lan Zhu?"

"That's right, that's right, that's right!" Xiaoqing said happily, "It's so good that the Emperor let you live here."

The Emperor told her the story of Emperor Taizong and Chen Fei, as well as the Empress Dowager herself. Here, the fortune and misfortune of Sea Orchid Pearl's life was recorded, and fortunately, she was doted upon by the Emperor, before she, who was 33 years old, passed away in a hurry. Whether it was luck or misfortune, Rong'er carefully examined the scenery of this room, wanting to find more stories about her … Unfortunately, too much time had passed. Apart from this room and this room, everything else was gone. He was no longer there, and that feeling of love was also gone …

"Mother!" While Rong'er was lost in thought, Prince Rong ran in from outside the house. Prince Rong also stayed in a side room next to the palace.

Rong'er smiled as he looked at his daughter, "Xian'er, what's wrong?"

"Mother, I'm going to find Si-er to play." On the way, he told her about the interesting things he would show her in Shengjing.

"Call me Crown Prince." Rong-er looked at his daughter reproachfully, reminding her many times that she could not remember.

"Alright, the crown prince is here. Have I gone?" He looked at Rong with a smile.

"Don't be too greedy, come back quickly." Rong'er nodded in agreement, not even bothering to tell his daughter what to do.

"Alright!" As he turned to run out of the palace, the palace maids at his side hurried to follow him.

"Xiao Qing, Yin He lives in the Polar Palace, right?" Rong'er turned around and looked at the palace maid beside her.

"Yes, Mistress." Little Qing hurriedly agreed.

Rong'er nodded, then suddenly said with emotion, "Yin He didn't disappoint the filial Queen. On the way here, I've seen him the most, he's really smart, with a good recitation of poems and books, and he's also very heroic. He's even a shadow of the emperor when he was young, no wonder the emperor keeps praising him on the tip of his tongue."

"That's right, but this servant heard that the emperor has especially high requirements for the crown prince. His Highness the crown prince is very pitiful, and he rarely has any time to rest from morning till night. The adults around him are all around us, and I think only when he's with our Crown Prince and Brother Zhi, will he be as happy as a child." Little Qing sighed and said.

"Who asked him to be the crown prince? He has too many responsibilities on him, and the expectations the emperor has of him are also high. This is his life, there's no other way." If the late emperor was six years old and the emperor was eight years old, then that would be even more pressure than the crown prince. He would be used to it. "

Xiaoqing nodded. "So, it's still our Third Brother Yin who's happy. He doesn't feel that much pressure. Right, since we've been out for so long, little Brother A will definitely miss us. I wonder if you'll take good care of us."

"She's such a gentle and kind person, but she'll definitely treat him well. I'm afraid that she's too mischievous and angered him." Rong'er chuckled. In his heart, Rong'er understood that in another year, Prince Yin would be leaving her side when he turned six. Both she and Prince Yin would have to get used to it.

After dinner, Xuan Ye came in and asked with a smile, "Are you used to Rong'er here?"

"I'm pretty used to it. How long are we supposed to stay in Shengjing, your majesty?" Rong'er looked up.

"Rong'er, I want to bring you guys to see Shengjing. During this time, I will bring Yin He to patrol the surrounding area and pay tribute at Yongling. After that, we will head to Wu La, Changbai Mountain, and Songhua River. We will probably return to the capital early in April." Xuan Ye replied softly.

"Oh." Rong'er nodded, then raised his head and said with a smile, "This time, chenqie has finally followed Your Majesty to Shengjing."

"That's right, this is my wish. Let's go, I'll take you to the Shengjing Palace." Xuan Ye stood up and said.

The Shengjing Palace was much smaller than the imperial palace in the capital. According to Xuan Ye and Rong'er, the imperial palace took up more than ten times more space than the imperial palace in the capital.

Rong'er suddenly stopped and looked up into Xuan Ye's eyes, "Your majesty, I heard that your concubine lives in Guan Sui Palace, which is the palace of the late emperor Chen Fei?"

"Consort Chen is the most doted on concubine in Taizong. Although she entered the palace late, she was deeply loved by Taizong. In order to express her feelings, Emperor Taizong changed the name of the palace to 'Guan Ju Palace'."

"Guan Ju Jiu, in River State. A beautiful lady is someone that a noble should be able to get his hands on. " Rong'er whispered.

"Yes, the implication is this ancient little poem, 'Guan Sui'." Xuan Ye nodded slightly.

Rong'er said faintly, "Taizong's love for the pearl was so genuine."

Xuan Ye bitterly shook his head. "Tai Zong's love for the pearl was so unprotected."

"Your Majesty …" Rong'er raised his head to look at Xuan Ye.

After a moment's thought, Xuan Ye said in a faint voice, "Hai Lan Zhu is my royal grandmother's sister. My royal grandmother once said that Tai Zong's love for Hai Lan Zhu was unconcealed, and it was clearly displayed in front of everyone. Very few women in the imperial palace weren't jealous of her, and after she gave birth to a prince, Tai Zong's concubine, this is the first time in the Great Qing Dynasty. The court officials and imperial concubines all felt very dissatisfied, but unfortunately, this child died when he was two years old, if he didn't die, my royal mother would not be able to be your emperor for two years."

Rong'er's eyes turned red. This was the love of the royal family …

There was a trace of disappointment in Xuan Ye's eyes as he turned around and said in a low voice, "That's why I said that Tai Zong's love for Hai Lan Zhu is unprotected. The Emperor's family is not ordinary, and if they don't give her the best things, they treat her well. If they really do love her, they must protect her."

Rong'er nodded and said with a tinge of sadness in his voice, "Your majesty, this is what the empress dowager once said to chenqie."

"Rong'er, I want to protect you. This was taught to me by my royal grandmother, and taught to me by Taizong and my Emperor Ama. I pamper you, not to give you the best, but to protect you. Do you understand?" Xuan Ye gently pulled Rong'er's face up as he said this.

A trace of tears appeared in Rong'er's eyes. If time could stop here, then she would be the happiest person here …

Late at night, lying in this bed that perhaps even Haylon had once laid down, Rong'er had a dream. Inside the dream, she saw a beautiful woman faintly smiling at her, softly telling a beautiful story …
