Chapter 227 The First Duchess
"No." He held his face, his voice trembling.

"Then have you ever looked for me?" Tang Meichen asked in a low voice. This was what she longed for and wanted to know the most in her life. She asked with a guilty conscience.

"...No." He said he hadn't looked for it, and he didn't hide it at all, but Tang Meichen saw tears sliding down between his fingers holding his face.

Tang Meichen felt a little sad, this knot has always been stuck in her heart, and today she suddenly had an answer, and her heart suddenly became empty, instead of being as sad as imagined to want to die, there was a kind of relief instead.

"You can blame me, you can hate me, it's all right. I didn't know that Du Ruo was pregnant at the time. If I knew, I think I would..."

"Don't talk about it, even if you knew it, it is impossible to give up the succession to the throne for us. Thinking about it this way, thank you for not knowing it back then."

Tang Meichen fisted her hands, she didn't hold back, and said such angry words, but soon she added in a low voice: "Sorry."

His Majesty the King got up, grabbed Tang Meichen's shoulders with an excited expression, and said sincerely: "Meichen, I really don't know, you believe me, I love her, I have loved her all my life, and I have regretted it all my life. Later I know you After being with Moses, I am very happy in my heart. Moses is a good boy. I watched him grow up, and I know he treats you very well and is worthy of entrusting him for a lifetime. You don’t have to worry about his mother anymore. Remember to tell I."

Although she and Huo Du didn't have many hardships when they came together, they also experienced everything that she could never imagine in her life.

The old man in front of her gave her an unbearable background and life. She should be grateful, but she couldn't find even a trace of such gratitude in her heart.

In the end, Tang Meichen pursed her lips and smiled lightly, and remained silent. His desire to atone for sin was so obvious that she no longer planned to get entangled in his affairs.

"Well, Little Tangdou is still waiting for me outside, so I'll go first."

After Tang Meichen finished speaking, she turned and walked out without looking at him.

His Majesty's voice came from behind: "Can you... call me Dad?"

Tang Meichen paused, her heart sank, she never thought about the word 'Dad', she didn't say it for a long time, she couldn't say it out, and she didn't want to.

After a pause, Tang Meichen continued to walk towards the door, as if she had never heard what His Majesty said.

She didn't look back, but he could still hear his heavy sigh.

Sigh evil fate, should not be entangled.

Sighing at myself, I lost to fate after all.

Everything is arranged by God.

When Tang Meichen returned to Huo Du's side, her eyes were almost swollen like peaches, she shed tears on the steps of the palace, and she let go of everything.

"Do you want to go back?" Huo Du put his coat on her shoulders, and hugged her thoughtfully.

Tang Meichen shook her head, "I'm fine."

Huo Du was silent, standing beside her quietly, he could see something, and knew that all words of comfort at this moment were in vain, so he could only quietly accompany her.

In a short while, the imperial edict issued by His Majesty came down, Huo Du succeeded to the title of nobleman, and named Tang Meichen as the first noble lady.

The first duchess is the supreme honor, the same as the princess, outsiders may not know it, but Tang Meichen, Huo Du and Mrs. Huo all know that this first duchess has an extra layer of meaning inside.

Tang Meichen took Huo Du's arm to accept the award, but she didn't look at His Majesty the King until the end of the ceremony.
