As Ah Jiu entered the palace, he attracted quite a bit of attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Prince Jin is truly handsome.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed, do you know that currently in the entire Beiyan Capital, Prince Jin is the top choice as an ideal husband!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wonder who will be so fortunate in the future, to become the Princess Consort of Jin.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Empress Dowager Mo walked in the garden with the help of a palace maid, and Nanny Shui approached with a smile, curtsied, and reported, \"Your Majesty, the Prince has arrived.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Empress Dowager Mo paused and saw Ah Jiu striding towards her. His dark purple attire accentuated his nobility, and his demeanor was full of kingly bearing, causing her to reveal a gentle and loving smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your son pays respects to Royal Mother!\" Ah Jiu knelt on one knee before Empress Dowager Mo in salute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rise.\" Empress Dowager Mo smiled as she called him to stand, extending her hand to him. \"What brings you here today?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I missed Royal Mother!\" Ah Jiu took over the palace maid’s chore, personally supporting the hand of Empress Dowager Mo as they walked through the garden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Empress Dowager Mo chuckled softly, \"Your words are as sweet as honey; surely there is something you seek.\" Yet her face was full of joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed, nothing can escape Royal Mother’s discerning eyes!\" Ah Jiu replied cheerfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Empress Dowager Mo gave him a sidelong glance but did not ask further. After walking two laps, she sat down in a pavilion set up by the palace maids and eunuchs, sipped her tea, and said, \"Speak, what is it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your son is to be sent on a mission to Nanyue.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Empress Dowager Mo raised an eyebrow, though not showing much surprise, as if she had known this news, and said, \"Is this mission for Beiyan, or for yourself?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Royal Mother and Imperial Brother say the same thing.\" Ah Jiu smiled slightly, \"I do it for the country and for myself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Empress Dowager Mo said nothing, waiting for him to continue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ah Jiu said, \"Royal Mother, this time when I go to Nanyue, I wish to bring back the woman dear to my heart to meet you. Would you be willing to see her?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What if Royal Mother is unwilling?\" Empress Dowager Mo’s voice was gentle, deliberately sounding sad, \"You’ve only just returned from there less than half a year, and now you’re leaving again? How much time do you think you spend with me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ah Jiu laughed as he refilled her tea, \"Royal Mother, your son wishes to start a family. Don’t you want to have grandchildren?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Grandchildren, of course Royal Mother looks forward to. But Jiujiu, without proper marriage, such unions can only make her a concubine, you know?\" Empress Dowager Mo looked deeply at him, \"The world disdains such unions; this is not just about whether individuals care. Even if you don’t care for one day, ten days, will that hold? I do not wish your reputation to suffer.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like all mothers, even as the noblest woman in the world, Empress Dowager Mo only cared for her child.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet Ah Jiu said, \"Royal Mother, I cherish and respect her; how could I let her bear such a reputation for my sake?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Empress Dowager Mo frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No matter what I do, I hope Royal Mother will support me,\" Ah Jiu looked at Empress Dowager Mo and said, \"This is the only thing I ask of you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"All for a woman?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s not just any woman; it’s about your son’s happiness. Royal Mother, I only want her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Empress Dowager Mo looked into his determined eyes, speechless for a long time until a bird flew into the pavilion, pecked at the scattered grains, and flew off. Only then did she let out a long sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A son grown is beyond a mother’s control; you are grown now, and Royal Mother can no longer make decisions or manage you!\" Empress Dowager Mo sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was her concession.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ah Jiu’s heart leapt with joy, but he feigned innocence, \"How could that be? Royal Mother, you must help me manage the children in the future, you definitely cannot let go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Empress Dowager Mo playfully tapped his forehead, but her gaze became distant.\u003C\u002Fp>",716,"2026-06-05T19:25:38.891Z",1,"novelbin.me","df0a3495c43274b9258b527a3b16d651d59730c2bc943c759103974f8e6c97bf","doted-by-the-regent-king-chapter-1283","doted-by-the-regent-king-chapter-1281",1685,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdoted-by-the-regent-king-cover.jpg"]
