He had been born into the imperial family. The girls that he had met were all noble. They would not expose their feet when walking, nor reveal their teeth when smiling. Any bad behaviors would be corrected by the families.

But the girls of that village were totally refreshing and completely changed his views. It allowed him to understand that girls with their sleeves rolled up to reveal some skin were actually quite beautiful. It turned out that girls could also wade into rivers barefoot with their pant legs rolled up to try and catch fish. It turned out that girls could also get mad and curse at people. They were also able to loudly express their love toward someone in front of others. At the same time, they could smile as though these were things in line with the desires of the heavens and the earth. There was no need to feel embarrassed nor worry about being mocked by others.

And if you agreed, you would take her hand and visit her parents. In a few instants after bowing to the heaven and the earth, you could live together happily. If you did not agree, you would also say it clearly. The girl would not feel too ashamed. They would continue smiling while advising you to find the girl of your dreams. They would then turn around and continue singing or dancing if they wanted. They would very quickly cast these thoughts to the back of their minds.

He was a very able person, and his appearance naturally was not plain. In addition to this, with him being from the imperial family, he was good in both martial arts and academics. He very quickly gained some fame within the village. During one bonfire gathering, there were six girls that had expressed their love to him; however, he only accepted the hand of the girl that had torn her dress to treat his wound. Her name was Yun Pian Pian.

Yun Pian Pian did not know what sort of person he was at that time; however, she was duty-bound to not turn back, thus she married him. The two lived together for a very long time until a plague started and ruined this entire situation. If it was not for the Emperor taking her away at a timely moment, perhaps Yun Pian Pian would have lost her life as well.

The two left the mountain, and the guards received them. They found the best doctors to treat her, and Yun Pian Pian finally discovered what sort of person her husband was.

The Emperor had begun reminiscing and did not want to stop for a long time. Xuan Tian Hua, however, could not allow him to continue reminiscing, thus he went forward and quietly called out to him: “Father Emperor.” His voice was clean and was most adept at calming people down.

The Emperor regained his senses and put on a bitter smile. He reached out and poked the piece of gauze; however, he knew that it was not the same piece as before.

“Your mother… is she well?” He asked Xuan Tian Hua, “You just returned to the capital and should have seen her, right?”

Xuan Tian Hua nodded but smiled bitterly, saying: “When has mother ever grieved her situation. Father Emperor should know just by looking at what she did to son’s palace. She’s very well.”

The Emperor was a bit emotional and asked Xuan Tian Hua: “You… can you think of a way to have her see me?” Regardless of whether they were inside the palace or not, the Emperor did not dare go and see imperial concubine Yun rashly. He had called to her from the outside and messed around. He had the ability to stir up trouble; however, he definitely did not have the courage to push the door open and enter. In his heart, Yun Pian Pian was above all else. Back then, if he had not been in a rush to treat her illness, he would have done everything to ensure that he did not expose his identity so easily.

The Emperor’s request caused Xuan Tian Hua to feel troubled. He said: “When the servant came by earlier, mother said that if father Emperor came, she… would not see you.”
