"It'll be fine, don't worry." Even though there was no way to heal the leg yet, Murong Kai kept comforting her for her peace of mind.
Murong Kai's hand was originally trying to stop Ah Man from touching his leg, but now, he held Ah Man's hand tightly. The warm touch seemed to touch Ah Man's heart. Her heart seemed to be on fire and could burst out of her chest at any time.
"A'man, I will treat you well in the future." These should have been words of affection, but when Murong Kai said them, they sounded extremely solemn. No one knew that Murong Kai kept this promise all his life.
"Who would be with you? Don't talk nonsense." He said this, but his face turned red.
She had met too many young men in Bei'an, but none of them could easily move her heart like Murong Kai.
It’s not that no one has tried to kiss her, and there have been people who have wanted to hold her hand, but every time, she would avoid them and even get annoyed.
Only Murong Kai is an exception.
I just started to save him, and when I knew his situation, I felt very sorry for him. Later, the pity was gone, but he lived in my heart.
There was really nothing going on between the two of them, but he touched her heart.
Perhaps, this is what is called fate.
"Don't talk nonsense. I will treat you well, and from now on, I will only treat you well." Murong Kai's smile was full of warmth, and his indulgent and doting eyes were like a hot spring in the valley, soaking people's hearts with warmth.
"What are you still looking at? He has already said that he will only be nice to that girl Bei'an from now on. What's the point of you worrying about him
At this moment, outside the simple bridal chamber, the Empress Dowager was talking to Ashe with a look of disgust on her face. It was obvious that she was unhappy after hearing Murong Kai's affectionate words.
"Why are you jealous of a kid? As the old saying goes, when you marry a daughter-in-law, the matchmaker throws her over the wall. It's good that he didn't come out to chase you away now."
"Besides, Akai has you in his heart for sure. When he found out it was you, he almost didn't even enter the bridal chamber."
"I'm just angry that he hasn't seen me for more than ten years. When he sees me, he doesn't chat with me about family matters but is busy coaxing his wife."
The Empress Dowager naturally understood Ah She's words of comfort. She understood life more clearly than anyone else. It was just that she hadn't seen Murong Kai for many years, and she wanted to talk to him more, but he was so good that he stayed with his wife that he completely forgot about her, an old woman.
"Just say you miss him. Is it that hard to admit a fact?" Ah She couldn't help but complain. The older she got, the more she cared about her face. She obviously missed her grandchildren and great-grandchildren in the palace, but she never went back. She obviously missed Murong Kai, but she met him in this way...
"I know you are angry with Zheng Er, but he knows he is wrong now, and you still don't go to see him. It's really..."
Back then, in order to reassure Murong Zheng and to reduce the rift between the grandfather and grandson, the Empress Dowager chose to leave.
He fled to Hanshan simply because he favored Dong. The Empress Dowager tried to persuade him many times but to no avail. The two even had a rift. In order to avoid damaging the relationship between the grandfather and grandson, the Empress Dowager prepared for more than ten years later and left.
Now, Dong was trapped in Qingliang Palace. If she was willing to go back, Murong Zheng would certainly welcome her, but she was still unwilling to go back out of spite.
But in my heart, I am thinking about them.
Although there is no one of her blood in the court today, those children are the result of her half a lifetime of hard work, and the man from the Murong family is the one she has devoted her entire life to.
"What are you going to do now? Continue to stop her from favoring Concubine Jin? Look at what his father has done?" The Empress Dowager naturally understood Ashe's thoughts. She spoke slowly, with endless fatigue in her words.
