Sweet Wife in My Arms
195 Old
"You don't have to comfort me; I cannot compare against that young girl." The Empress put down her hand before bringing over the cup of tea. Within her eyes, one could see the glory that she used to enjoy. However, right there and then, all that was left was a little shock and regret. She was shocked at her age and regretful of her youth.
She sat like this, not moving a muscle. She continued drinking the tea within her cup. Occasionally, some light would land on her face and her age showed not only on her face but in her eyes too.
"Cut!" Director Zheng shouted before giving Yan Huan a thumbs up.
Her expression was on point and there was the right feeling. She had the grandeur and even though she didn't lose her temper, that silent anger gave everyone around her pressure that anyone could easily feel.
He was still worried that Yan Huan wouldn't be able to act the role of the Empress well. Hence, he had asked them to put more effort on her make-up. However, he didn't expect her acting to be this good.
She looked exactly what she was acting like. Whatever she acted as, she became that. Whatever she acted as, she was that.
Yan Huan held back her smile. At that moment, she still remembered that she wasn't Yan Huan. She wasn't a 20-year-old girl. She was an empress, an old empress who controlled all of the empire.
She was the most powerful women in this palace with many people beneath her.
Naturally, she needed to have the grandeur of an empress.
As the next scene proceeded, she pulled back her sleeves and in an instant, she displayed her stature fully. Even the actors who stood beside her could feel it. They all had an unexplainable pressure from this small girl.
She simply sat like that but her elegance was up for admiration. Sometimes, she displayed sorrow from her eyes and when she smiled at someone there was a certain distance. Only with her son did she show her true feelings.
Today was the day the emperor chose his wife.
"Empress, do you not want to take a look?"
Granny Flower gently touched the Empress shoulders and asked.
"Why would I go?" The Empress held her cup as she erased any hint of curiosity in her eyes. Time had not only left wrinkles in her face, it left a mark in her eyes too.
"I am old and no longer care who the Emperor marries, so long as she gives birth to two grandsons for me."
After a while, a eunuch walked over gingerly.
He then knelt on the floor, bowed and shouted at the top of his voice.
"Empress, this is the list of beauties that the emperor has chosen. Please take a look at it."
The Empress' hand trembled as she continued drinking tea.
Granny Flower had followed the Empress for most of her life and of course she knew what the Empress was thinking. She took over the list from the eunuch before walking back.
She then laughed and said, "Empress take a look at this. We were just talking about this. The Emperor must have put you in first place."
The Empress took over the list. "Even if he shows it to me, I do not care who he marries."
Even though this was what she said, she was obviously saying it out of pride. The Empress might be the most respected woman in the world and there were many people beneath her. However, she was still a woman and a mother after all.
As a mother, her son was everything to her. If her son were to forget about her after marrying his wife, no mother would be happy with that.
