Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart



Long Yang was thinking if he should not have given so much of his opinion.

He explained to her patiently, "Weiwei, I have never harbored such a thought. It's just because I love you and can no longer allow anyone in my heart that I'm not willing for you to suffer even a little. I don't want anyone to hurt you. Other women are no different to me than just wooden blocks. Since I have you, I've never given a second look to any woman."

"But, I'm me, and Yin'er is Yin'er. I can't force Yin'er into following what I practice and make him do exactly what I do, to be loyal to only one woman and love only one woman his entire life."

"In fact, whichever woman he marries and if she would get hurt in the process is not within the jurisdiction of what I should look after, nor would I get involved to overlook it, because if that person isn't you, she would have nothing to do with me. I have given everything I had to the imperial court in the first half of my life and all I want is to give my everything to you in the second half of my life."

"Other than you, the life and death of another woman have nothing to do with me, and it would be the same even if she was my daughter-in-law. If Yin'er wants to have an imperial harem, it is his freedom to do so and I will not interfere with it, but I don't think it's wrong of him to do so. Weiwei, do you understand what I'm trying to say?"

To be honest, Lu Liangwei had never doubted his love for her. It moved her even more after she had listened to his explanation.

She understood that it was normal for men of this era to marry more than one wife, especially when it came to the Emperor.

It was a rare occurrence that Long Yang had made an exception for her and she should feel lucky and content about it.

She could not use modern standards to make everyone living in this era to marry only one wife, even if that person happened to be her son.

Of course, before Long Yang had explained this, she was not able to adapt to it. She could never get used to it if Yin'er decided to have an imperial harem one day.

However, not interfering with this did not mean that she had accepted and approved of this.

Despite that, there was still a huge gap between the practices of the two different eras. It was a mountain that could not be conquered. Change would not come because of a few words.

This was olden times and the beliefs and traditions of the people had built a deep foundation within them for the past thousands of years. It was impossible to think that they could be changed unless the person in question had gone through a personal epiphany like Long Yang did.

That was why she was very lucky to have met Long Yang.

He was a noble Emperor who was willing to give up the imperial harem for her and only wanted her by his side for his entire life.

However, she could not request her son to make the same choice as Long Yang did.

"I understand what you're trying to tell me. If Yin'er really does have an imperial harem in the future, let's move to the imperial holiday home. I won't be so bothered if I don't witness it," Lu Liangwei said listlessly as she pursed her lips.

Long Yang rubbed her head. "The children will figure out their lives. They are all grown up and have their own opinions. We shouldn't interfere too much with them. At the most, we'll just offer our opinions when they are feeling lost and point them in the right direction. There are many things that they would need to figure out on their own. As for us, the less we worry, the longer we'll live."

"You're absolutely right." Lu Liangwei smiled with some helplessness. She thought about this and suggested, "Let's just move to the imperial holiday home in the future and live the rest of our lives quietly."

The smile on Long Yang's face diminished as he faltered slightly. "Weiwei, judging by the dates, Ji'er and the others will be arriving soon. I think it's best I head to the imperial holiday home tomorrow first. Ji'er would be unhappy if she sees me."

Lu Liangwei frowned when she heard this. "There is no need for you to do that. You're her father no matter what. Who has ever heard of a father avoiding his daughter?"
