THE QUEEN'S TRUE LOVE

CHAPTER 101 BONUSES

Confused how to explain it, I told him. "Qi Sheng, you don't understand!"

"Then explain it to me."

I was about to open my mouth, but I didn't even know what to say. Finally I just told him that as long as he was Emperor then it meant that he was my master. With my life in his grasp, how could I get rid of all his vigilance and love him?

He did not understand that love not only gave him everything but equality. As long as she's the Emperor and I'm the empress, we'll never be equal.

The Queen Mother died in the tenth year of Qi Sheng's reign. Qi Sheng was very close to the Queen Mother, so he was very sad for quite a long time. But this meant that, next year Qi Sheng became even more excuses not to raise any more concubines.

Two more years passed and now, Qi Sheng and I already have 3 sons and 2 daughters. In that year, Qi Sheng chose the best candidate before we finally married our eldest daughter.

I told Qi Sheng. "We don't have to have any more kids, huh? I might be a grandmother soon. I'm too embarrassed to have another child."

Qi Sheng thought about it for a few nights and finally said that he would think about my advice.

In the 14th year of Qi Sheng's reign, the Crown Prince was now 16 years old and after carefully selecting candidates, we married him.

When we picked a concubine for her, I told my son. "If you like it, it's fine to marry a lot of women. But if you don't like the woman, then don't marry her at all. Don't ruin someone's life."

The Crown Prince was young, so he replied excitedly. "I just love my wife, so I don't need another woman."

But Qi Sheng looked at me with a thoughtful expression.

Covered by the scent of incense, I answered honestly. "happy. Very happy."

It's just that I also feel bad when I think that all this happiness of mine is paid for by the lives of those women who spent their entire lives in the temple.

Qi Sheng asked. "This temple is their place (the concubines). Do you want to see them?"

After a moment of silence, I finally shook my head. "No. I don't think so."

Qi Sheng laughed and whispered. "It's good you don't want to meet them. If so, I still wouldn't be juggling them out of nothing."

Dazed, I looked at him confused.

Qi Sheng smiled, stroked my head and explained gently. "Peng Peng, how can I let your conscience suffer? They. I let them go. Although I don't promise wealth and a life of luxury, but I let them choose the way they want to live."

Sighing heavily, Qi Sheng led me out of the temple. When we returned to the palace, Qi Sheng's mood was suddenly much more cheerful and he told me. "20 years (wedding) we will be arriving soon. I'll prepare a surprise for your birthday this year."

I'm nodding. Since I was happy about the incident this morning, I decided to pay more attention that night. Qi Sheng did not want to admit that he was no longer young, which meant that he arrived late in the morning meeting the next day.

Before my birthday, Qi Sheng went hunting after he told me he was going to catch a white fox for me as a gift.

I actually didn't care much about the fur of the beast, but since he seemed so enthusiastic, I nodded and replied. "Remember what you said. Don't give me an empty promise."
