A Luo led the officials to discuss for two days and then presented another memorial.
Two names were circled again, but they were rejected by the emperor. It was just that the two candidates were not suitable, but the ministers in the court had to pull out one carrot after another, and they had to move one piece at a time.
As a result, Ah Luo had no choice but to continue to convene subordinate officials for discussion.
Political affairs consume the most energy. Ah Luo didn't sleep well for several nights, and her cheeks, which were still rosy, quickly lost weight.
Brother You saw it in his eyes and felt pain in his heart.
However, he couldn't bear and couldn't discourage A Luo at this time. He had already made up his mind to fully support all of A Luo's actions. If he kept nagging in front of A Luo, wouldn't it be another thing for A Luo to worry about?
Brother You made the midnight snack by himself. He simmered the chicken soup for an hour or two, skimmed off the oil and minced meat, took only the clear soup, rolled out the thin noodles by hand, and added a handful of fresh vegetable leaves.
Brother You brought the fragrant chicken noodle soup to A Luo and said with a smile: "This is my first time cooking. Can you try it and see how it tastes?"
A Luo took a bite and praised repeatedly: "This noodles is so fragrant and delicious. Brother You, when did you learn to cook?"
Brother You felt very happy when he saw her eating happily. He laughed softly and said, "You are busy all day long. I can't help you with anything else. Learning to cook and making some midnight snacks for you is nothing."
"Eat more if you like. Look at you, you have lost a lot of weight these days and your chin has become sharp."
Ah Luo had a surprisingly good appetite and ate a bowl of noodles cleanly.
Brother You was very happy and asked with a smile: "What do you want to eat tomorrow night?"
A Luo blinked her eyes, her eye circles suddenly turned red, and tears fell down.
Brother You was startled, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to hug A Luo into his arms. While wiping her tears, he coaxed: "You were fine just now, why are you crying all of a sudden? Do you think I made a midnight snack?"
tasty?"
Since they got married, the couple has been sweet and affectionate and has never blushed. This was the first time A Luo shed tears in front of him.
"Brother You, will you regret marrying me?" Ah Luo sobbed and said, "With your family background, talent, beauty and character, you can marry a lady from any family you want. Whoever marries you will treat you as a husband.
My son-in-law has taken good care of me. But you have become my royal concubine..."
She is busy all day long and cannot be by his side all the time.
Most of her energy was taken up by the political affairs of the court. When she returned to the East Palace, she often summoned the officials of the East Palace to discuss matters. There was very little time and leisure left for him.
She cannot be like an ordinary wife and regard her husband as her first priority. Instead, he has to accommodate her in everything. Now he even takes the initiative to learn to cook and make midnight snacks for her.
Thinking about it, she felt aggrieved for Brother You.
…
Ah Luo acted like a prince in front of others, her words and deeds were dignified and solemn, making people dare not underestimate her and respect her. Even though she was pregnant for several months, she did not show any signs of fatigue or weakness in front of others.
At this time, she was crying in Brother You's arms, her tears falling like broken beads.
Brother You was heartbroken. While wiping A'luo's tears, he comforted her softly: "Sister A'luo, being able to marry you is the greatest luck in my life. Being with you day and night is also the greatest happiness in my life."
Happiness. You are pregnant now, and you are still so busy. I can't help you much, and I feel really guilty. What's the point of making some midnight snacks? I can't wait for the baby to come into my belly, so don't torment you."
A Luo was coaxed to tears and smiled. She raised her head and looked at Brother You eagerly: "Brother You, do you really not regret marrying me? Are you really happy every day?"
Her pretty face, still stained with tears, shone with a pitiful uneasiness.
Brother You lowered his head and kissed A Luo gently on the corner of her mouth.
There were all kinds of intimate things between husband and wife. The gentle kiss at this time contained deep pity and cherishment, as if she was the most fragile treasure in the world.
Ah Luo's heart was filled with the sweetness of happiness, and some confusion had long since been squeezed out of sight.
"Brother You, you are so kind to me." A Luo said in a low voice with a blushing face.
Brother You smiled silently, and gently placed his right hand on A Luo's bulging belly. Just as he was about to say something, there was a slight movement under his palm.
Brother You was shocked and so excited that he didn't know what to do: "Sister Aluo, the child moved. The child just kicked the palm of my hand."
A Luo was also surprised and at a loss: "It's the baby that's moving. The imperial doctor checked my pulse yesterday and said that after four months of pregnancy, the baby will start to move slightly in the belly."
The young couple, who were new parents, were both surprised by the sudden fetal movement. They leaned their heads together and whispered.
"Brother You, do you prefer a son or a daughter?"
"As long as they are our children, I like them all, sons and daughters." His tone was full of love and doting.
A Luo chuckled: "I don't know if the baby will look like you or me."
Brother You laughed softly and said, "It's better to be more like you."
Ah Luo said, "I have been strong and competitive since I was a child. Now that I am the Crown Princess, I have to act like a Crown Prince at all times. My child should be like yours, smart, gentle and careful."
When the young couple discussed their children, they had endless things to talk about. From the child's appearance to the child's temperament, they even argued over how old the child should be to study, learn piano, and practice martial arts.
At some point, A Luo's voice became quieter and quieter, and gradually there was no movement.
Brother You lowered his head and couldn't help but laugh.
A Luo actually snuggled into his arms and fell asleep.
A'luo, who was sleeping soundly, looked relaxed and relieved, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised. Brother You smiled silently, lowered his head and kissed her forehead, carefully picked up the sleeping A'luo, and put her on the bed.
He was born in his mother's womb at seven months, and his body bones have been weak since he was a child. Every time he got sick, he had to come back again and again, and it took a long time to recover. Therefore, A Luo and the others started practicing martial arts when they were five years old, and You Geer did not do it until he was ten.
He only started practicing martial arts and archery when he was 18 years old, and his martial arts skills were mediocre.
However, he did not practice martial arts to compete with others, but just to strengthen his body. In a real fight, he would not be A Luo's opponent even if he were ten.
A'luo was worried that he would regret marrying her, but she didn't know that the uneasiness in his heart was even greater than hers.
A Luo is so beautiful, intelligent, brave and decisive, and dazzling. In comparison, he, the crown prince, is much inferior. Now they are newlyweds, and their affection is strong. A Luo will not dislike him. After three years,
Five years, ten years, eight years, or even longer, A Luo has become the empress. Will she get tired of him and find a new love?
...No matter how thick-skinned he is, he can't express these hidden worries.
Brother You blew out the candlesticks in the room, leaving only one in the corner. He lay down next to A Luo, carefully wrapped his arms around A Luo, and together they fell asleep sweetly.
