Han Wanrong felt a tightness in her heart, but she remained calm: " servants is honored to serve Your Majesty." 0
 
Han Yu reached out and gently caressed Han Wanrong's cheek, his voice low and charming: "Your beauty is not just external, but also in your talent and wisdom. I have always had expectations for you." 0
 
 
Han Wanrong's cheeks turned slightly red, she lowered her head, not daring to look directly into the Emperor's eyes. Although she felt a hint of honor in her heart, there was more of an inexplicable pressure. 0
 
Seeing this, Han Yu smiled gently and reached out to embrace her. His voice was soft and affectionate: "Rest assured, I will treat you gently." 0
 
 
Su Wanyi's body stiffened slightly, but soon relaxed. She knew that she had completely integrated into this magnificent palace and had become an indispensable part of it. 0
 
Han Yu's embrace was warm and secure, and at that moment, Su Wanyi felt an unprecedented sense of peace. She softly said, " servants thank you, Your Majesty." 0
 
 
Su Wanyi's cheeks were tinged with a faint blush, and her eyes shimmered with complex emotions. In this palace full of countless secrets and intrigues, she was like a budding flower, both delicate and pure. 0
 
Han Yu carefully sensed her changes, his gaze gentle as if able to perceive every subtle fluctuation in her heart. 0
 
 
He gently stroked her hair and spoke with a subtle concern, "In this palace, I will protect you." 0
 
Su Wanyi raised her head, her eyes shimmering with gratitude but also mixed with unease, "Your Majesty, I will do my best to fulfill my duties." 0
 
 
Late at night, in another palace, the queen's palace, it is quiet. 0
 
 
Chen Feng'er returned to her palace alone, sitting by the window, gazing at the moonlight outside, her heart in turmoil. 0
 
She recalled her past with Han Yu, memories intertwined with sweetness and pain. 0
 
 
Now, she is the lofty queen, but in this deep palace, she feels an unprecedented loneliness. 0
 
Chen Feng'er's heart is full of contradictions. On the one hand, she understands the emperor's decision, knowing that this is to maintain the stability of the royal bloodline and power; but in her heart, there is always a trace of indescribable loneliness. 0
 
 
It's late at night, but Chen Feng'er is still sitting by the window, tears shimmering in her eyes, but she bravely holds back from crying. 0
 
Her fingers gently stroke the embroidery on the table, every stitch revealing her thoughts. Her gaze is deep, as if recalling the bits and pieces of the past. 0
 
 
At this moment, there came the faint sound of footsteps outside, it was her personal maid Xiaolian. 0
 
"Your Majesty, why haven't you rested yet?" Xiaolian asked cautiously, with a worried look in her eyes. 0
 
 
Chen Feng'er Gently smiled, concealing the emotions in her heart: "It's nothing, just my thoughts drifting away casually." 0
 
Empress Chen Slightly smiled and shook her head: "I have some things to ponder, you go rest first." 0
 
 
Xiao Lian hesitated to speak, but in the end, she nodded and quietly left. 0
 
Empress Chen sat alone by the window, her heart filled with complex emotions. 0
 
 
She knew that tomorrow would be another brand new day, and she had to continue playing the role of a queen, maintaining the harmony and stability of the palace. 0
 
But on this quiet night, she allowed herself to temporarily set aside those heavy responsibilities and feel her true emotions for a moment. 0
 
 
She gazed at the moonlight outside the window, her heart filled with anticipation and unease for the future. This night, Empress Chen did not sleep at all. 0
 
 
With the arrival of the morning light, Chen Feng'er awoke from her deep contemplation of the long night. She stood up, straightened her clothes, and decided to start a new day. 0
 
She walked out of the palace and headed towards Shanglin Garden. The flowers here appeared particularly vibrant in the morning light, with dew glistening on the petals like pearls of dawn. 0
 
 
Chen Feng'er strolled slowly in the garden, her thoughts drifting back to the events of last night. She knew that as the queen, every decision she made would impact the entire harem, and even the entire empire. 0
 
Her steps halted beneath a blooming peony tree. The resplendence and resilience of the peony seemed to remind her that even in the most difficult moments, she must maintain strength and grace. 0
 
 
At that moment, Chen Huang'er walked lightly over, her face fresh with the morning: "Madam, good morning." 0
 
Chen Feng'er turned around, smiling to greet her: " Hang'er, good morning. The garden looks especially beautiful today." 0
 
 
Chen Huang'er nodded in agreement, her gaze wandering around the garden. "Yes, Your Highness. Whenever I come here, my mood always improves." 0
 
The two of them walked together in the garden, discussing various matters in the palace. Chen Feng'er occasionally offered Chen Huang'er some guidance and advice during their conversation, helping her better adapt to palace life. 0
 
 
Suddenly, a palace maid hurriedly approached and bowed to Chen Feng'er: "Your Highness, the Emperor has issued an edict requesting your immediate presence in the study." 0
 
Upon hearing this news, Chen Feng'er furrowed her brows slightly. She knew that if the Emperor summoned her, it must be for an important matter. 0
 
 
She said to Chen Huang'er: " Hang'er, I need to go see the emperor. You continue walking in the garden." 0
 
Chen Huang'er nodded in understanding: "Your Highness, please go ahead. I will wait for you here." 0
 
 
Chen Feng'er turned around and walked steadily towards the imperial study. Her heart was filled with doubt, unsure of what the emperor's summons could possibly be about. 0
 
 
When Chen Feng'er entered the imperial study and saw Emperor Han Yu, she noticed that he looked slightly tired, but there was a gentle light in his eyes. 0
 
As she entered the imperial study and saw Emperor Han Yu sitting behind the desk, looking serious, she bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the servant greets you." 0
 
 
Han Yu saw Chen Feng'er and gave a slight smile, with a tone of apology: "Feng'er, I was unable to accompany you last night, so I came today to apologize to you." 0
 
Chen Feng'er nodded gently, with a calm expression on her face: "Your Majesty, there is no need for this. Your servants understand the heavy responsibilities of Your Majesty." 0
 
 
Han Yu approached Chen Feng'er with a gentle look in his eyes: "Feng'er, I have understood your understanding and support all along. Today at noon, I want to dine with you to make up for last night's regret." 0
 
A hint of joy flashed in Chen Feng'er's eyes: "That's good, servants look forward to having lunch with Your Majesty." 0
 
 
Han Yu's face showed a satisfied smile, and he said softly, "Then it's settled. Let's enjoy a pleasant lunch together and relax a bit." 0
 
Their conversation was filled with the tacit understanding and warmth of a married couple. Despite being in the deep palace, their emotions remained deep and strong. 0
 
 
At noon, Chen Feng'er and Han Yu had their meal in an elegant pavilion in the Imperial Garden. 0
 
 
The environment here is quiet and peaceful, surrounded by lush flowers, as if it were a paradise away from the hustle and bustle of the world. 0
 
Exquisite dishes are placed on the table, each one a favorite of Chen Feng'er. 0
 
 
Han Yu's thoughtful arrangements made Chen Feng'er feel a hint of warmth. 0
 
Han Yu and Chen Feng'er chatted casually while dining, discussing interesting events in the palace as well as the prosperity of the country. 0
 
 
At this moment, they both temporarily set aside the constraints of their identities and enjoyed this rare moment of being together. After the meal, Han Yu invited Chen Feng'er to take a walk together. They strolled in the garden, with Han Yu occasionally lowering his head to listen to Chen Feng'er's whispers, and at other times, admiring the beautiful scenery of the flowers with her. 0
 
 
On this afternoon, it was a precious and beautiful time for Chen Feng'er. In the deep palace days, being able to share such peace and sweetness with her loved one was already a rare happiness for her. 0
 
 
As the sun sets in the west, Chen Feng'er and Han Yu stopped on a small bridge in the garden. They quietly watched the lingering glow of the sunset, drawing closer to each other in their hearts. 0
 
At this moment, Chen Feng'er deeply felt that no matter where they were, as long as they were together with their loved one, it was the most beautiful time. 0
