Chapter 626 - Here Comes His Royal Highness — (1/2)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Emperor Wu didn’t care about any exam paper other than the set Grand Secretary Fang brought him.

As for Feng Wu…

Emperor Wu had mixed feelings at the moment.

What happened to the girl’s exam paper?

He was still trying to figure it out when the chief steward whispered in his ear. “Your Majesty, His Royal Highness is here.”

Jun Linyuan?

At this hour? Emperor Wu was bemused.

“Show him in.”

Jun Linyuan stepped into the hall to find the table covered with exam papers.

“Linyuan, what brings you here?” Emperor Wu knew his son too well to wait for the latter to greet him first.

Jun Linyuan gave Emperor Wu a nod, then glanced at the table.

“These are the exam papers for Imperial College this year.” Emperor Wu patted the seat next to him, gesturing at his son to sit down.

The chief steward smiled awkwardly as he observed how the emperor behaved around his son.

When the crown prince was around, the emperor reminded one of a mouse facing a cat and didn’t dare to step out of line at all.

Whereas with his other sons, His Majesty was all stately and authoritative.

He just couldn’t behave like a proper emperor in Jun Linyuan’s presence.

He tried to establish his authority a few times when Jun Linyuan was little, but each time, he was defeated by the crown prince’s relentless comments and blatant disregard. After a few failed attempts, His Majesty gave up ever trying to intimidate His Royal Highness.

Emperor Wu jumped a little when Jun Linyuan sat down next to him.

He really did sit as told?

Something big must have happened. The kid never showed up here without a good reason.

Emperor Wu told the chief steward, “Put away these exam papers. They’re in the way.”
