Chapter 4 — He was reborn and asked to marry the Emperor. I turned around and chose the Grand Deputy

"Alright." I took out a handkerchief and gently wiped her tears. “This is a happy matter, the mother in heaven will definitely be happy too.” Mama Tom nodded, then said angrily: "That Crown Prince today even dared to publicly refuse His Highness. Your Highness, tell me, compared to Ta Thai Deputy, besides his beautiful face, what other advantages does he have?" “What mom said is not true.” I interrupted her. "This palace feels that Ta Thai Pho is much more beautiful than Ve Lam." Mother To was stunned for a moment, then smiled kindly: "Yes, yes, everything your Highness said is correct." Looking at her gentle smile, a feeling of guilt arose in my heart. In my previous life, my eyes were blinded by Ve Lam. To mommy didn't know how many times she advised me, but I still stubbornly refused to wake up. In this life, I will definitely not let you be upset because of me anymore. “Mama.” I held her hand. “Help me find that chest.” Mother To was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood what I meant and quickly nodded: "Yes, old slave, go do it now." Not long after, Tom commanded two eunuchs to carry the pear tree wooden chest that I had specially ordered to make in my previous life to the spacious yard. In the chest were all small things that Ve Lam conveniently gave to me, or a few envelopes that he wrote indifferently and sloppily. At that time, we often sat in a daze in front of those items for half a day, trying in vain to squeeze out a little sweetness from them to deceive ourselves. Now that I think about it, I just find it ironic. I shook my head and nonchalantly ordered: "Burn it." As soon as Mother Su heard that, she immediately quickly commanded the palace staff to throw firewood on it, then set it on fire. That movement was so fast, it was as if I was afraid that I would change my mind in the next second. I sat on the rosary chair brought by the little eunuch, watching the red fire flare up, the scenes of my past life being humiliated and trampled by Tham Uyen and Ve Lam continuously appeared before my eyes out of control. Mama To carefully observed my expression and softly spoke to comfort her: "Your Highness, it will be clean once burned. Once burned, everything will be over." "That's right." I tilted my eyes to look at her. “Mom, from now on, our days will definitely be completely different.” Mother Su nodded vigorously, tears shining in the corners of her eyes: "Yes, this old slave believes in your highness! It will definitely be like that!" I sat in the yard for a long time, until everything completely turned into a pile of black ashes. However, there was no feeling of relief in my heart as I had imagined. On the contrary, there was a feeling of emptiness after everything was completely over. “I'm bored, move out.” I lightly said a word, stood up, brushed my sleeves, and went straight back to the inner hall. 4. In the following days, I began to intentionally and unintentionally create random meetings with Ta Nghien Chi. Outside the royal study, I calculated the time and waited on the path he would definitely pass. Just seeing the slender, tall figure in a robe coming out of the hallway, I quickly took two steps forward, pretending to unintentionally say hello: "Ta Thai Deputy, what a coincidence." Ta Nghien Chi also warmly responded: "Your Highness Princess, it is indeed very coincidental." Sometimes when I often see him reading a book in the Royal Garden, I immediately find a nearby stone bench to sit down and pretend to admire the flowers. If Ta Nghien Chi finds out, he will take the initiative to give me the book, and then slowly explain the subtle points in it. More often than not, I bring fruits and snacks to pay tribute and go directly to Sung Van Quan to "visit" my royal brother. Every time he saw me coming, his younger brother would grimace his little face and mumble in a low voice: "The royal sister didn't come to visit you. She obviously saw that the Grand Deputy was having a hard time, so she specially brought him some breakfast to nourish him, so that he would have more strength to 'teach' you." Hearing that, Ta Nghien Chi burst out laughing and decided to keep me there as if he had another "auditoring student". Just like that, our time together grew more and more, sometimes discussing poetry, sometimes talking about court politics. Thanks to the memories of reincarnation, from time to time I give r

He had some unique insights, but those insights always made his eyes light up, and the look of appreciation in his eyes became increasingly stronger. Gradually, his eyes looking at me gradually became a little more gentle.
