good time, seeing this, hurriedly grabbed Qing Yu's garment, crying out, "Emperor, you have hurt the Empress Dowager! Emperor!"
What do I want? What do I truly desire?
What I want is that foolish Seventh Prince. Can you return him to me?
He listened to my words and fell silent.
After a long while, he suddenly released me and quietly walked to the door.
After a moment, he turned back, his voice as calm as still water. "Shaohua, I will ask you just once more: do you truly refuse to stay? To be my Empress, second only to me, above all others... do you really not wish for that?"
I slowly knelt down and said, " I, your servant "
Qing Yu closed his eyes in pain.
"Depose her."
In the sixth year of Fenghua, emperor Qing Yu issued an edict to depose Shao Hua from her position as Empress.
In the seventh year of Fenghua, the former Empress drowned herself in a lake.
In the eighth year of Fenghua, emperor Qing Yu appointed consort Mingye as his new Empress.
In the twenty-sixth year of Fenghua, emperor Qing Yu passed away at the age of fifty-one, and Crown Prince good time ascended to the throne.
"You never told me that time travel was even a thing."
Qing Yu lounged lazily on the sofa in the air-conditioned room, munching on chips while watching a movie.
His adaptability was truly remarkable; just a few days after arriving in the Twenty-First Century, he was already handling televisions and computers with ease. good time should have had a life like this too...
Sigh, leaving him as an emperor in that chaotic era really felt unfair...
"I can't believe I made it back. I never dared to hope I would survive... Haha, and I came back so young!" I happily snatched the chips from Qing Yu's hand and took a big bite.
The television continued to play "First Love, This Little Thing," a show that Qing Yu had watched over and over again without getting tired of it.
I recalled the note I left for Qing Yu before my suicide; he read that note nineteen years later!
Though those nineteen years in that world equated to just nineteen days here in the Twenty-First Century, those nineteen days had consumed my thoughts for quite some time!
"Yes, my dear, you are the wisest."
"Not quite. I haven't forgiven you yet. The way you plotted against me back then... You almost cost me my life. What exactly happened?"
"Honestly, I knew the Crown Prince liked you all along." Qing Yu put on a pitiful expression. "That's why I dared to place you by his side; I knew he wouldn't easily harm you. So, I came up with this last resort.
You have to understand, once the Crown Prince ascended to the throne, neither of us would survive. So, in order to marry you openly in the future, I had to resort to that tactic."
"Alright, alright." I nodded, "So how do you plan to compensate me?"
Qing Yu tilted his head and thought for a moment before saying, "How about I buy you a big bag of chips?"
I tossed a pillow at him casually, rolling my eyes in annoyance.
"Hey, then just marry me."
"Get lost! I didn't even wear your wedding dress in that hellhole, so it's even more impossible now!"
I shot him a sideways glance but didn't notice that Qing Yu had quietly snuck behind me. He wrapped his arms around my waist, a wicked smile on his face, and then yanked off my sexy little underwear.
"Hmph, you won't marry me, huh? Then let's just make it happen!"
I let out a startled "Ah!" as Qing Yu began to "go wild" on the sofa, and amidst my half-hearted resistance, I found myself completely consumed by him.
The last line of the movie was—actually, I had been waiting for that person to return from America.
Yes, I had been waiting for him to come back from that chaotic time.
And he finally returned to my side.
