C29 (1/2)
In the past few months, Wei Zhao had eaten and slept well. His height had risen a lot as he stood in the hall. The candlelight made her face look even more carved and jade-like as countless pieces of jade swirled in his eyes.
Emperor Qinghu came back to his senses. ”What's wrong?” He extended his hand and patted the seat beside him, ”Come sit with royal father.”
Wei Zhao's lips were pursed tightly as he walked forward one step at a time. When Emperor Qing He got off the bed to hug her, she then took advantage of the situation to hug his neck, burying her tears on his clothes.
Emperor Qing He gently asked, ”What's wrong?” ”Tell Father.” He patted her back as he spoke.
Senior Officer Zheng had long signaled for Senior Servant Lin to go ask some questions.
Lin mama was also baffled. ”She's still fine before she goes to bed …”
Wei Zhao was sobbing in the room, ”Imperial father, wuu wuu, I think my mother …”
Emperor Qing He felt a shiver run down his spine as he thought of the face of the Du Family.
Zhao Baolin had meticulously dressed himself up, but when he arrived at the entrance of His Majesty's chambers, he was stopped. He was so depressed that he nearly bled internally, and after asking a few questions he knew that the princess was with his majesty, and Zhao Baolin's depression could be imagined, in the past, all sorts of beauties and concubines fought for the favor. But now, there's a third princess.
He saw that the princess had fallen asleep in the emperor's arms. He was slowly patting her arm, and his eyes were shining with love. He suddenly thought of something, [I am both a father and a mother.]
The poor Zhao Baolin was still eagerly waiting for the news to spread, so he had to be careful and invite this unlucky ancestor back. His Majesty had not been lucky for a long time, and this reward fell on Zhao Baolin's head, causing many to be jealous of him. Unfortunately, this reward was too hot for Zhao Baolin to receive, and in the blink of an eye, people would be jealous to the point of laughing, this was truly bad luck.
Not to mention that Zhao Baolin had secretly gritted his teeth as he returned to his original path, but after Wei Zhao woke up, he didn't suffer from any side effects from eating and drinking, and instead, he added an extra night to look for his father. As long as Emperor Qing He gave the order, Wei Zhao would definitely come over.
Soon, it was the sixth day of the ninth month. The birthdays of the princes and princesses in the palace were not all that great, but the nobles in the capital were not blind either, and many people sent gifts. Fortunately, everyone was quite calm, and did not send too many gifts.
General Xuan De's residence also brought a lot of things over. Emperor Qing He took Wei Zhao's hand and slipped it over. Wei Zhao was extremely calm as he glanced at the basket of grapes that the Cheng Guo Family sent over along with the basket of longevity peach buns that Zong Zheng Temple had given him. Emperor Qing He laughed loudly and the father and daughter both ate a bowl of longevity noodles.
On the ninth day of the ninth month, the emperor gave the chrysanthemum wine to the elders of Yan City and the neighboring counties, and took Wei Zhao to Jingshan.
Wei Zhao sat in front of Emperor Qing He, excitedly looking at the scenery on both sides of the mountain as he urged, ”Father, hurry up.”
When he heard her cry, he picked up her horse and carried it on his back. Unfortunately, both of them were guards, and the horse was running at full speed. Wei Zhaokong was so excited that he picked up the horse himself but could not do anything about it.
Halfway up the mountain, there was a ten-zhang tall gilded Buddha. Emperor Qing He dismounted with Wei Zhao. He said to her, ”Go and properly pay your respects. Whether or not your wish can be fulfilled is up to you.”
As the wind blew, the cloaks of the group fluttered. Wei Zhao muttered to himself as he stood up and walked to the side of Emperor Qing He. He paused for a moment before speaking to him, ”Imperial Father, your son will be filial to you! [I will never be able to keep up with your words!] I want to be a gentleman! ”
Emperor Qing He smiled gently. He thought to himself, 'If I, the emperor, were to be too gentleman, it would be extremely arduous for me.'
The father and daughter pair simply abandoned their horses and climbed to the top of the mountain together. The guards presented the dogwood, and Wei Zhao personally placed it into the dogwood sack prepared by Green Bamboo. He helped Qing He tie it to his left arm and solemnly said, ”Father, you will live to be a hundred years old!”
Qing He nodded with a wide smile. He loved to hear these words, so he didn't say anything else. It was fine as long as he lived past the Du Family!
When he mounted the horse, Wei Zhao was eager to give it a try. Qing He smiled and said, ”It's fine to bring you along, but you have to agree to a condition that you are not allowed to turn over a tablet in front of me in the future!”
Wei Zhao rolled his eyes, as if he had suffered at the hands of someone. He nodded, ”Father must bring along this son of mine as far as possible in the future.”
As a result, in the evening, Official Zheng arrived with a toothache faced eunuch. Emperor Qinghe had waited for half a day to wait for Wei Zhao with great interest, but when he saw the eunuch's constipated face, he even glanced at him a few more times before finding the words' Third Princess' written on it.
As Wei Zhao skipped over the threshold, Emperor Qinghe turned the tables with a wail and laughter. Indeed, each and every one of them was the third princess.
