The Royal Highness - C36
But I can’t have her
Seeing that she was so smart, the empress dowager liked her son more. She was not so angry at him either as she said, “Don’t stand under the sun, I just want to go out and lead the way so that I can rest early in Qinzhou.”
No matter how angry Xiang Ye was, it was impossible to get him off the horse carriage. His mother would really fall out with him. Furthermore, Qiu Miner wouldn’t have the guts to urge the empress dowager to chase him to the Qinzhou. This woman didn’t care about anything at all.
She took the umbrella from her elegant hands to shield her from the sun, but when she reached the door, she touched her wrist and said, “My jade bracelet was taken off when I was washing her hands. I forgot to bring it back. My daughter, go get it for me.”
She could have ordered the eunuchs and maids to do such a thing, and the empress dowager had done it on purpose, obviously, to see the Emperor alone. She didn’t know what would happen if she went, but she had been afraid that the Emperor would bury her when he got angry, and now she was sure that at least the Emperor wouldn’t bury her here.
He walked into the main hall by himself, and the eunuchs and maids by the side did not make a sound. She walked straight into the main hall, and just as she was about to enter through the door, she heard the Emperor’s sad voice, “If I had known earlier, I would have split up. Why were we together in the first place?”
“, I won’t let anyone replace you. This Qiu Miner is a good woman, my mother likes her a lot, just like how she liked you back then, but I can’t take her.”
