I am Ming Qingyue, the tenth emperor of this kingdom of the underworld. Living in the intrigues of the palace since I was a child, I learned how to disguise myself, thus becoming more indifferent and tenacious.
The current Queen Mother is not my biological mother. My biological mother left me very early. Since then, the Queen Mother has taken on the responsibility of raising me.
Ascending this throne is the result of my coercion and inducement to my mother, because I know that she cannot truly treat me well.
Seventeen years old is already mature enough for a king. That summer was already the fifth reincarnation since Xue'er left me, and I had almost forgotten Xue'er's appearance.
I only remember that one snowy night, I secretly hid behind the rockery and cried.
A small hand hugged my neck tightly. Her eyes were big, watery, and full of clarity.
"Brother, are you cold?"
She foolishly thought that I was crying because I was freezing, but in fact, I was angry at the emboldened ministers in the court today.
It's clear that I am the emperor of this underworld, yet I am controlled by them in every way. It's disgusting!
Even if the Queen Mother listens to politics behind the curtain, I still have to listen to the Queen Mother. She is clearly a puppet emperor!
"Don't cry, Xue'er will warm you up."
After saying that, she spread out my hand and breathed on it with her little mouth. The breath was originally warm, but when it encountered cold, it turned into water.
In an instant, the palms of my hands became wet again, and felt cool after being blown by the wind.
"Brother, are you still cold?"
Her eyes were still so clear, as if the world was so beautiful in her eyes.
I smiled and shook my head. Actually, I really don’t like to laugh, but at that moment, I laughed.
The past resurfaced again. Standing in front of the familiar rockery, I looked at it and seemed to recall something in my deep memory.
Today is my wedding day, but the right minister and the queen mother have full control over the new queen. I know! They want to monitor me.
As if it were a routine matter, after wandering outside for a long time, I walked into the new house pretending to be drunk, with our hair tied together and chattering in pairs.
But the person in the new house was not the one I was waiting for. I was already angry in my heart, and with a scolding, I ordered the servants to leave.
I didn't drink a glass of wine or lift my hijab. I lay directly on my bed and said in a cold voice, "Get off my bed!"
At that time, I didn't know what kind of harm I had done to Yu Yan, but I knew that I eventually fell into a drowsy sleep. The next day, before the rooster crow, Little Lizi came to call me to the morning court.
It was at that moment that I opened my eyes and looked at the red hijab. Yuyan had been sitting like that all night.
"You want me to lift your hijab?"
I just wanted to leave, but the person sitting over there suddenly stood up and stood in front of me.
"Your Majesty, since I am already your wife, even if you don't want to do anything, my wife will do whatever my husband wants. I will be loyal to the Emperor until death, and Your Majesty has also shown me all the etiquette."
Her tone was firm and not afraid at all, which made my heart skip a beat for a moment.
I casually pulled off the hijab, threw it on the ground, and walked away.
Just vaguely, she heard the sound of suppressed crying in her ears, and she cried.
In this harem, there are many women who can cry, but there are very few women who can't bear to cry in front of me.
The morning court was just to congratulate the newlyweds and to have children as early as possible. The queen mother kept looking at me with bad eyes, probably knowing that I had not slept with Yu Hui all night.
