Chapter 1050 Cultivating feelings
The Queen Mother was very kind. She always called herself "I" in front of Chu Cang, and kept her noble and extraordinary posture low, which made Chu Cang very flattered.
"You know about my body, right?" the Queen Mother said again, not as a question, but as an affirmation, "My bones are failing and I won't live long. I just hope that I can see the Emperor's happiness before I leave."
"Chu Cong." The Queen Mother stretched out her hand towards Chu Cong. Chu Cong hurriedly stepped forward and held the Queen Mother's hand. The Queen Mother continued, "Your Majesty... he suffered a lot and suffered a lot when he was a child, so he is what he is today, okay? It's easy to get rid of all the hardships, but... I was blind because I didn't marry him a good wife. Chu Cong, you are a good girl. I believe you will take good care of the emperor in the future."
"The Emperor is a man who values love and justice. If I hadn't forced the Emperor to marry the concubines in the harem, the Emperor would not have married them. But don't worry, the Emperor will definitely treat you differently. You and them It’s different, they were selected by the ministers below, and you were personally appointed by the emperor to marry.”
"In the future, the emperor will treat you well."
The Queen Mother also told Chu Cong a lot about the emperor's childhood, so that Chu Cong could know more about the emperor.
At noon, the emperor came over and had lunch with his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. After lunch, the queen mother took a habitual nap, and the emperor took Chu Cong to his palace.
As soon as he entered his palace, the emperor who was walking in front suddenly stopped, looked back at Chu Cang, and stretched out a hand towards her.
Chu Xing was stunned and looked at the emperor's hand, not understanding what the emperor meant.
The emperor pursed his lips and smiled, took a step forward, took one of her hands, turned and walked towards his bedroom.
"Your Majesty...this, this is not good."
Chu Cong's cheeks turned red, as if she had a guilty conscience. She quickly looked around and saw many maids and father-in-laws working in the yard. She subconsciously wanted to withdraw her hand.
The emperor refused.
The emperor tightened his hands and said, "You have to get used to it sooner or later. Let's just think of it as practicing in advance."
"But..."
"You are my fiancée, what are you afraid of?"
"You also said that she is a fiancée, not a wife." How can you be unmarried and just have sex in public? How is it decent?
The emperor was unhappy and said, "Aqi and Chu Yu can hold hands on the street, but I just hold my wife's hand in the yard where I live. What's wrong?"
Can we compare with the prince and master?
Can it be compared?
Is it comparable?
Chu Cong wanted to yell at him, but he didn't have the courage.
The prince and his master had been childhood sweethearts and had grown up together. Before they were even engaged, the prince would often rush into his master's room in the middle of the night to talk to his master.
Two people are as good as one.
And what about her and the emperor?
She and the emperor have only met a few times in total, and they don't understand each other. How can she compare with the prince and master?
She still doesn't understand why the emperor chose to marry her?
Perhaps, she knew in her heart, but...since she had agreed to marry the emperor, she shouldn't think too much.
Chu Cong did not struggle and allowed the emperor to hold her hand and enter the bedroom where he lived.
When Chu Cang came to the emperor's bedroom for the first time, the first feeling she felt was that it was cold, very cold. The entire palace is quite luxuriously decorated, and everything inside is priceless. Even the pillows and cushions on the Arhat's bed are made of rare golden silk threads.
In the center of the dormitory, the most eye-catching thing is a large copper incense burner, which is burning jasmine incense. The light fragrance adds a bit of warmth to this cold palace.
The emperor pulled her onto the Arhat bed, and the two of them sat on one side. As soon as they sat down, the maid came in with tea.
After pouring the tea, the emperor sent the maids out of the palace and said, "No woman has ever lived here before, and the furnishings are a bit cold. When you enter the palace, I won't prepare another palace for you, so you can just live here." Here.”
"Isn't this against the rules?" Chu Xang was surprised, his black eyes flickering, as bright as the stars in the sky at night, very beautiful and moving.
"Rules?" The emperor smiled arrogantly, "Rules are set by people. Whoever has the power is the rule."
In the palace, every move of the emperor and queen must follow rules, especially their residence. The emperor and the queen do not live in the same bedroom. The emperor has his own bedroom, and the queen and other concubines also have their own bedrooms.
When the emperor wanted a concubine to sleep with him, he would look through the names of the concubines. When he found a concubine, he would spend the night in that concubine's bedroom.
If the cards are not turned over, it means that the emperor wants to live in his own palace.
This is a palace rule that every emperor must abide by throughout the ages.
The emperor planned to let Chu Xing live directly in his bedroom after entering the palace. This was breaking the rules of the palace.
However, the emperor controls the entire Dasheng Kingdom's military forces and has overwhelming power. He doesn't have to do what his father did back then, and has to rely on the looks of his ministers to do something.
Today's emperor, not to mention just breaking this little rule, even if he breaks all the rules in the palace, no one dares to say a word against him.
But before, several civil servants who did not agree with him marrying Chu Cong because of some calculations in their hearts were discovered by the emperor within two days and had their official positions demoted three levels in a row.
After those civil servants came to their senses, they were so regretful that their intestines were green. From then on, no one dared to object to his marriage to Chu Cong.
Chu Cang and the emperor chatted in the room until almost evening. Seeing that it was getting dark, the emperor lowered his head to Chrysostom and let people out of the palace.
From that day on, the emperor would invite Chu Cong into the palace from time to time, euphemistically calling it to chat with the Queen Mother, but every time Chu Cong would accompany the Queen Mother in the morning, and then the three of them would have lunch together and take a nap with the Queen Mother. After that, Chu Cang will be kidnapped by the emperor to speak.
The emperor's reasons are quite sufficient. It is about cultivating a relationship. After the two of them fall in love and get married, the young couple will live the same life as Chu Jingqi and Xia Zihan. They care for each other, play the piano and the harp in harmony, and only envy the mandarin ducks but not the immortals.
This reason made Chu Cang feel embarrassed even if he wanted to find an excuse.
Five days before the wedding, the emperor finally stopped inviting Chu Cong into the palace because Chu Cong said that the lining she wore when she got married still had one unfinished embroidery sleeve.
The emperor was worried that she would really run out of embroidery, so he stopped occupying her time.
As for the phoenix robe she wore on her wedding day, the emperor had already ordered it to be made by the nuns at the needlework bureau in the palace.
Even the shoes and hijabs were made by the needlework bureau. Only the inner lining, socks and bellyband were embroidered by Chu Cong himself.
Chu Xing embroidered for three days before finishing the sleeve. In the remaining two days, the palace sent a betrothal gift on the first day of the wedding.
