Chapter 516: Chapter 516: Only Zizi is my confidant

The tone of Lin Zizi’s words gives the Emperor an inexplicable pang of anxiety. “No, why would I confine the Princess Consort?” He hurriedly explained, “It’s just that the palace has been busy lately. Considering the Princess Consort’s weak constitution, I haven’t let her go out.”

“And what about the Crown Prince?”

“The Crown Prince…He probably…it seems…” The Emperor faltered, catching a glimpse of Jiang Ning’s composed demeanour from the corner of his eye, he hummed silently and figured something out, “I guess the two young ones must be having a quarrel.”

Jiang Ning smiled faintly.

Lin Zizi looked at her, “Seventh Sister, did you have a fight with the Crown Prince?”

“Just a minor conflict, it’s nothing serious. Mother, don’t worry. I’ve come out, haven’t I? I don’t think the Crown Prince really meant to confine me.”

“That’s true. But why didn’t you bring your children?”

“I have not been feeling well, I didn’t want to pass on the illness to the children.” The Emperor took the initiative to speak for Jiang Ning.

Listening to the Emperor’s explanation, Lin Zizi’s face softened a bit.

The Emperor hesitated for a while, “Zizi, what made you think of visiting the palace today?”

“I was summoned by the Empress’s Imperial Decree. She wished to see me.” Lin Zizi replied softly, with great tranquillity, “The Royal Consort’s demise must have left you in deep sorrow, your Majesty. You still need to take care of your health.”

“Is that so.”

“Your Majesty, only by taking care of your health and living a long life, can you reminisce her voice, her smile, and the time you’ve spent with her every day.” Lin Zizi spoke at a leisurely pace, “If anything happens to you, who would then remember the goodness of the Royal Consort?”

The Emperor was deeply moved, he stared at Lin Zizi’s face, “If I’m not here anymore, will there be no one left to remember the Royal Consort?”

“As long as you remember the Royal Consort, she will always exist. If no one remembers her, then she is truly gone.” Lin Zizi spoke in a soft voice.

The Emperor let out a long sigh, “I’ve lived for decades, known so many people, but only Zizi truly understands me.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning wondered, what about the Royal Consort?

Lin Zizi said, “The Royal Consort has always been aware of your Majesty’s heart.”

“But, I dearly want to see her once more.”

“Your Majesty, everyone has a final destination, it’s just a matter of time. Why should you worry about this temporary situation? A person’s life span is predetermined, there’s no need to worry or hurry. Everything is arranged by heaven. You just need to manage your immediate affairs. Otherwise, when you meet the Royal Consort in the future, you’ll only be left with regret and vexation.”

Jiang Ning was startled by Lin Zizi’s words.

Who could’ve thought that Lin Zizi, seemingly naive and unsophisticated, could utter such profound words.

And the Emperor, by the soothing voice of the beautiful woman, was also calmed down.

“Zizi,” he suddenly stood up, “Now that the Royal Consort is no longer with us, my heart feels empty. Only when you are here can my heart feel a moment of peace.”

Noticing the strange expression on the Emperor’s face, Jiang Ning hurriedly assisted Lin Zizi to stand up, “Mother, I’m not feeling well.”

Lin Zizi was most worried about her, so her focus shifted to Jiang Ning as soon as she heard her words. Seeing Jiang Ning’s discomfort, she immediately turned to the Emperor and said, “May I ask your Majesty to allow the Imperial Physician to treat Seventh Sister?”

The Emperor paused, regained some of his senses and then became somewhat embarrassed.

He was upset.

A moment ago, he had an alarming thought of wanting to keep Lin Zizi by his side, replacing the Royal Consort.

That was too frightening.

Although he had many flaws, he wasn’t a tyrant who would contend for his subject’s wife.

Besides, the Royal Consort was irreplaceable.

If he did that, it would be a betrayal to the Royal Consort..
