BXBX NOVEL Chapter 442 - 12.50
"Your Majesty, I may be younger than you. But I can see that His Majesty will eventually marry someone else, it\'s obvious."
The young man\'s words were like a knife stabbing Yunyu\'s heart. He became doubtful of Huang Shu right after this stinky kid said that.
Honestly, he had that suspicion. It was like an innate suspicion and doubt of Huang Shu\'s loyalty. He was pretty sure that Huang Shu had cheated on him a lot of time, but that was simply illogical. And it might just be him being annoying and disturbing to Huang Shu with his irrational suspicion.
The young man sensed that Bai Yunyu, the Ger Empress, had fallen to his trap. He had a thin smirk on his face and continued planting the seed of doubt in Yunyu\'s heart, "Your Majesty, I know that you love Your Majesty so much, but don\'t you see how smitten His Majesty Emperor Xianliang was when he saw Lady Xi Yue from Xi family?"
"Y—You\'re just a stinky boy who knows nothing. What do you know about love? You haven\'t even grown your hair yet!"
"Hey, I\'m thirteen, not ten! I\'ve grown some!" The young man protested. He hated the fact that he was stuck in this young body, but it seemed only he remembered Bai Yunyu, not vice versa.
He didn\'t know who he was, just like a regular teenager who was going through puberty, albeit from a noble family. But the moment he accompanied his father to the Imperial Banquet and saw the future Empress, Bai Yunyu. He had a strong urge to embrace him.
It was a weird sensation. When Bai Yunyu smile, he felt a bit more joyous. But when he saw Yunyu cried, he also felt distressed.
The moment Yunyu ran away from the banquet, he asked his father that he wanted to walk around the Imperial Palace because he was bored. And as the son of the renowned Marquis Xu, he was allowed to do so. Though in fact, he stealthily followed Bai Yunyu until he sat alone in the Garden of Serene Harmony.
Just like an inherent nature of him, he wanted to pacify this Ger Empress and doted him as much as he could, even though he just met him once during this banquet. And he was just a thirteen years old boy.
However, everything changed the moment the red chain appeared to connect their heart. That moment, he finally got his memory back, including the timeline before and the life he had to dedicate himself to Bai Yunyu.
He remembered everything.
\'I can\'t sense those sparks between our gaze when our eyes met again, so it seemed that Yunyu doesn\'t have any memory about us and has no love for me in this timeline. Or is it because I\'m too young for him, so he has no other feeling other than big brother love to me?\'
\'Doesn\'t matter. In the end, that scum Huang Shu must\'ve done something to him. I don\'t think my beloved Yunyu will believe me if I said about what happened in the previous timeline. So I will just make sure that he will leave that bastard Huang Shu,\' the young man formulated more plan in his head.
"Your Majesty, I just think that marrying the Emperor might not be the right choice for you. Even if His Majesty is very loyal to you right now, that\'s just because of your beauty. What would happen when you got old? Emperor Xianliang will definitely find another wife, maybe hundreds of them. Maybe he will fill his harem with 102 women and ger men."
\'102?!\' Bai Yunyu felt it was a very familiar number, especially when this stinky boy mentioned \'102 women and ger men inside His Majesty\'s harem.\'
Yunyu couldn\'t believe that his heart got swayed because of a thirteen years old boy. But what the young man said had some weight in it. It was logical and… definitely possible.
"Your Majesty, if you want a husband that will forever be loyal to you, you shouldn\'t marry an Emperor. Because that\'s just simply impossible…" the young man said. Then he blushed a bit. "W—Well, one of those loyal men is me. I will be very loyal to you, you know…"
"Pfftt! You? Ahahaha!" Yunyu, who was stressed out because of Huang Shu\'s matter, suddenly burst out laughing.
"What? I\'m also a man!"
Yunyu giggled and patted the young man\'s head, "Alright, alright. You should find a good woman or ger man for you to marry when you got older, okay?"
"Hmph, you really don\'t believe me!"
Yunyu smiled at the young man, "Okay, stinky boy, I know all that you said might be true. But you shouldn\'t say something like that in front of other people in the future, okay? Or you might be beheaded for slandering my husband."
"T—Then, how about you, Your Majesty? Will you stay with His Majesty Emperor Xianliang?"
…
Yunyu said nothing for a good while, and then he just turned his back and walked away.
"W—Wait, you haven\'t replied yet, Your Majesty!"
"Young man, I am already married to the Emperor. There was no divorce when you got married to him. So, in the end, I will be by his side forever. Even after he meets another woman or ger man to marry, I will not leave him. That is the duty of the Empress and also the proof of my loyalty and respect to my marriage."
"But, will you still love him when that time comes? What if you get fallen out of his favor and banished to the Cold Palace? Will you still love him?"
…
"When that time comes, I will still be by his side. I have harbored my heart for him. I might\'ve resented him, hated him, cursed him. But I know my heart will still long for his warmth in the end."
"If the day when I got banished to the cold palace finally came upon me, then I will leave my heart in this Palace of Serene Harmony and die peacefully. I just wish in my next incarnation that I will not marry an Emperor. All I want is just a loyal husband, that\'s it."
Bai Yunyu knew how stupid he sounded, but it was what he had in his heart. He walked away from the garden to the palace, but he asked the young man before he got too far away.
"What is your name, young man?"
…
"I have a lot of names. But for now, you can call me Xu Jiansheng… "
Yunyu giggled, "You have a lot of imaginations, I see. Then I will call you Xu Jiansheng. Thank you for your advice, Xu Jiansheng. You\'re quite of a talkative young man, aren\'t you?"
"This will be the last time we will meet like this. You should return to the banquet. Your family must\'ve been waiting for you."
Xu Jiansheng watched Yunyu\'s back as he walked away from the garden., further and further until he entered his palace.
Xu Jiansheng clenched his fist, "This will not be the last time we will meet, Yunyu. Through countless millennia and dozens of worlds, I will always follow you and help you. I will make sure that you will choose me in the end. That is my own promise."
