The Rebirth of the Empress

So That's You

The days always go by too fast.

With the weather getting colder, the students of Guang Wen Tang also started preparing for the academy exam to be held at the end of the month.

Young men do it so that they can become officials and young women do it to show off their talents so that there will be more value when they get married in the future or a potential partner will like them.

This was what noble children had to do, even a pampered woman like Feng An Ning had also started to work harder lately. Needless to say about Shen Qing and Shen Yue, Shen Yue had specially written poetry and played Qin in the Eastern courtyard all day, hoping to take center stage again this time.

Shen Yue and Shen Qing were already fifteen years old and according to tradition, this was the time where the two families would meet. The women in Ming Qi would be married around the age of sixteen so that they could be engaged at the age of fifteen. Shen Qing and Shen Yue did not finish it for a long time as they set their sights very high and looked down on people of similar status but would be somewhat ignorant of what was good to themselves if they set it too high.

In the end these two households always set their sights on Prince Ding.

Among the nine sons of the late Emperor, only the ninth son, Prince Ding, was unmarried. She was only in her early twenties and it was a great time to get married. But for various reasons, the Imperial Empress's decision still hung in the balance. Like a piece of flesh hanging, Prince Ding would also personally be there as an examiner in the academy examination. This made many young women exert more energy and effort as they hoped to have a good impression in front of Prince Ding and hoped Prince Ding would fall in love with them at sight firstly.

Yet Shen Miao had no intention of doing that.

With another life, she was still not a romantic woman. He did not know how to make poetry or perform any dance. Obviously he cannot stand on stage to talk about major national issues. Moreover, he did not wish to have any relationship with Prince Ding.

In his past life, Prince Ding used his Shen family, hurting his children and slaughtering his entire clan. This is a debt that must be paid sooner or later. Since there was a debt of blood, how could they be husband and wife?

Feng An Ning asked him, “Why don't you read? Seeing that the end of the month has arrived and if you don't dare, don't you let others laugh out loud?” Shen Miao fell into the water and after that became very calm. He thought that Shen Miao was starting to understand things properly but from today it seemed to be no different from before. He was still that stupid, stupid student.

Shen Miao said, "In any case don't understand, why waste extra time."

Yi Pei Lan who was listening to the comment on the side, laughed and sneered, "There is nothing more than mud not sticking to the wall."

Shen Yue was talking to Shen Qing at that moment and was pretending as if he had not heard the words spoken here and had not come to his rescue. These days Shen Miao did not please them like he did before so they were also unhappy with it in their hearts and were eager to see Shen Miao humiliate himself.

Yet Shen Miao did not seem to hear Yi Pei Lan's words and stood up, "I'll take a walk in the park."

"Have you said enough?" Feng An Ning's brows were pinched, "What's the point of having knowledge?" Since the second tier he is impressive and pampered at home. Yi Pei Lan did not want to make trouble with him so she remained silent.

Shen Miao reached the garden and walked slowly.

Guang Wen Tang is such an elegant place that greenery, ponds, rock formations, and garden constructions are beautifully made. As one walked into the forest, one would be able to smell a scent that made one's heart feel refreshed.

He just wanted some quiet time for himself. The people at level two were just impetuous young children and she had already become a mother in her previous life. Many times, as Empress, aside from receiving greetings from various concubines, she needed to spend most of her time in her own Feng Yi Palace. Having gotten used to the solitude and quiet emptiness, he was too lazy to deal with a group of kids making a fuss, be it ridiculed or ridiculed.

In the end, he didn't care about them.

As he walked, he saw a snow-white glutinous rice dumpling appear in front of him.

A small ivory satin robe clad in dumplings stood under the bamboo, her clothes should have been greatly beautified but deformed by the round body shape. The hat on his head was wrinkled and tangled, making his entire appearance seem cute and silly.

“Su MingLang.” He gently called.

When the dumpling heard him, he quickly turned around. When he saw Shen Miao, a pleasant glint of surprise flashed across his eyes. He seemed to want to hurry but stopped hesitantly and did not speak as he looked at Shen Miao.

This child really looked like a four to five year old baby that made Shen Miao's head ache. Could she consider her a mother?

When Su Ming Lang saw Shen Miao, he pursed his lips like he wanted to say something but did not speak. After which, his eyes began to redden as he gently cried, "Sorry ..."

Pardon you? Shen Miao slightly gaped and saw the mouth of the dumplings conical as she was about to cry out with a complaint.

The next moment, a lazy voice sounded.

“So it's you.”
