The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince!
Chapter 1584 - 1577: Great Wei’s Realm Needs Her ChildChapter 1584: Chapter 1577: Great Wei’s Realm Needs Her Child
After all, war had not spread to this place, making it a suitable hideaway.
However, Wei Mingze saw Rong Yun standing in front of this group of wooden houses in a daze, then knelt down with some shame, "My apologies, Princess, for not being able to provide a better environment for you at the moment. For the sake of survival, living conditions are poor, and I hope you do not find them distasteful!"
He had his own relatives give up the best house for Rong Yun and her maid.
Rong Yun turned around, biting her lip, "Please stand up, it’s not that I mind this place, it’s just that... I miss my imperial grandmother so much. She did not come with us, and now I have no idea where she might be."
In these chaotic times of war, she was very worried that her imperial grandmother was exhausted with nowhere to rest, possibly staying in even worse conditions than herself.
"The Empress Dowager... there are still some people by her side, even the traitorous soldiers would not dare to harm her lightly. You, Princess, must take care of yourself."
Wei Mingze kowtowed.
The reason he chose to take Rong Yun away first was because he knew that she was precisely whom the rebels most desired, capable of using her to threaten Your Highness!
But the Empress Dowager is highly respected; she is also the birth mother of Zhao Wang, who she raised; in any case, even Zhao Wang’s followers would not dare to harm her, even those plotting for the realm of Great Wei must spare the life of the Empress Dowager.
However, Nanny Yan seemed to be heavily burdened with worry, looking at Rong Yun wearing the Empress Dowager’s clothing, she felt that something was amiss.
But she needed to be calmer than Rong Yun, so she didn’t say anything in her presence, just had Hong Xiu and Xiao Xiang assist Rong Yun in washing up, before helping her to rest.
While sorting through the clothes Rong Yun had taken off, Nanny Yan just started to shake them out when suddenly she heard a "thud"—something had fallen onto the muddy ground.
Nanny Yan placed the clothes on the kang bed and picked up the object to look at it, eyes widening, "The phoenix seal!"
She quickly wiped the phoenix seal clean with her sleeve, and held it carefully, thinking of the Empress Dowager, tears streaming down her face.
This was an elder who loved Rong Yun to the bone.
She had entrusted her with the heavy responsibility of a nation!
But as for Rong Yun herself...
"Auntie."
Rong Yun, having finished washing up, came out in a white inner garment.
Seeing Nanny Yan’s reddened eyes, she stepped forward to wipe her tears, "Auntie, don’t cry, we will be alright, Qin Muyan will surely come to take us back!"
"Yes, the maid understands." Nanny Yan’s tears flowed as she brought the phoenix seal before Rong Yun.
Rong Yun looked at the phoenix seal; she had seen this item before.
Her beautiful brows furrowed, "Auntie, where did this phoenix seal come from?"
"It’s something the Empress Dowager left for you." Nanny Yan wrapped the phoenix seal with a silk handkerchief from her bosom, then placed it in Rong Yun’s palm, "Didn’t the empress say to you before her death, that she wanted to entrust the realm of Great Wei to you and Your Highness? The Empress Dowager meant the same, she wanted you to use this phoenix seal to one day rule over the harem."
"But what about my imperial grandmother..." Rong Yun’s eyes suddenly brimmed with tears, and realizing something, she immediately rushed towards the door.
"Princess!"
"Princess, be careful!"
Nanny Yan along with Hong Xiu and Xiao Xiang all ran after her to stop her, they held Rong Yun inside the house, with Nanny Yan grasping Rong Yun’s hand, her palm burning hot, "Princess, after this challenge, perhaps you’ve grown a bit? The empress, the Empress Dowager, Your Highness... they all have high hopes for you!"
Once this calamity is over, the court situation will become clearer, and unless Qin Muyan and the emperor are defeated and perish, then the future Crown Prince of Great Wei will surely be Qin Muyan, and as his Princess, you’re destined to ascend to the throne with him!
With such a kind nature, you may not be able to securely hold the position of the empress in the Middle Palace.
You must have your own thoughts and strategies.
Rong Yun’s tears fell one by one along her long eyelashes, she knew the phoenix seal in her hand carried the weight of a thousand pounds, and she realized, the Empress Dowager must have encountered trouble while trying to protect her!
"But..."
Rong Yun looked at Yan Momo with a dazed expression, "Auntie, what should I do then? Should I kill with a sword like Your Highness does? I can’t do it."
She neither knew how, nor did she want to!
Yan Momo’s eyes were filled with unspeakable difficulty, and she even wanted to discard her status and scold, "Princess, when will you grow up! When will you understand the responsibilities you bear on your shoulders!"
But her words were of no use, Rong Yun would only hold onto the imperial seal and grieve.
During these days of hiding in the village, she did nothing more than take walks and practice calligraphy.
No matter how much Yan Momo resented her stubbornness, she could only stay by her side.
She noticed that Rong Yun had recently been practicing calligraphy with the same Mr. Nie, the man who had fled with them from the prince’s mansion to the village.
Not many had remained with them, but this Mr. Nie was originally invited by Qin Muyan to teach Rong Yun calligraphy, so she had brought him along all this time.
Now, Rong Yun sat upright at the table, Mr. Nie holding a scroll, patiently correcting her, "Princess, this character is not properly written, you must rewrite it."
"Alright." Rong Yun completed a sheet of rough paper, then changed to a new one and wrote again.
She wrote many verses, but the one she wrote most was a name.
Shunshun.
Rong Yun could not practice calligraphy at night, so she sat on the bed, stroking the characters on the rough paper over and over with her hand, her eyes brimming with longing, "Qin Muyan, I have already written the child’s name, please come find me soon."
That way, they could have another child.
Rong Yun’s longing seemed to have had an effect.
In the third month of their secret stay in the village, Qin Muyan led troops to find them.
He dismounted from his horse, his black attire Silver-clad, and rushed straight to Rong Yun.
He held the young girl clothed in coarse fabric in his embrace, his head lowered, whispering sweet nothings by her ear, his lips hot upon hers as he earnestly called out her name, "Jingjing! Jingjing! Thank goodness you’re unharmed..."
He had lost too much in this battle!
The Imperial Sister-in-law died, his imperial grandmother also died, the Imperial Brother was wounded and recuperating, now only he stood alone supporting the front lines of the war!
His heart was ice cold!
"Qin Muyan, does it hurt?"
Rong Yun lifted her eyes, focusing on the forehead above her, he was tanned and had lost weight, and there on his forehead were deep impressions left by his helmet, so deep that the skin had been chafed to blisters.
Qin Muyan’s eyes reddened as he removed his helmet, leaning his forehead against hers with a hoarse whisper, "It doesn’t hurt, Jingjing, I missed you so much."
The days when she was by his side every day... how precious they were!
Qin Muyan could only stay for one night before having to leave again.
Rong Yun bore the aches over her body, helping him dress; she didn’t know how to put on armor, so Qin Muyan had to wear it himself.
The armor Rong Yun couldn’t even lift seemed to weigh a thousand pounds on him, and she hesitated to let go, "Qin Muyan, when will the war end? I miss the Empress and the Imperial Grandmother so much."
"It will be soon! Jingjing, those traitors, Your Highness will exterminate their lineages, to offer their blood in sacrifice to the heroes of Great Wei’s Realm!" Qin Muyan’s eyes were filled with bloodlust.
Rong Yun, watching his stern figure, grew even more worried.
