Senior Officer Zheng had already signaled for everyone to leave.
Wei Zhao then narrated his conversation with Beauty Li in full detail, and even felt wronged in the end, ”Father, why do you think Beauty Li came to me instead of looking for the first mama?”
Emperor Qinghu shot her a sidelong glance. ”What do you think?” Why didn't she come to find you instead of the big mama? ”
The night wind was a little cold. Wei Zhao rubbed his nose, ”She thinks I'm a child so I can talk.” Emperor Qing He didn't say anything. Wei Zhao paused before continuing, ”It should be that I'm easier to talk to than the first mama …” No, yes, if it was a big mama, then my royal father would personally appoint her and she wouldn't be unreasonable, ”the little girl flattered him, but seeing that Emperor Qing was still unmoved, she could only humph and continue,” That is, what Beauty Li said either doesn't conform to the rules, or it isn't something you can say! She couldn't talk to the old woman, but she wanted to talk to her father, so she came to me. Oh, I should have asked her. ”
When Emperor Qing He saw that she was getting more and more restless, he knew that Wei Zhao wasn't afraid of him and couldn't help but smile. He recalled the good deeds Wei Zhao had done and quickly put away his smile.
Wei Zhao nodded and shook his head, ”Father, I just promised to tell you, but I didn't promise that she will definitely meet you!”
”Since you've spread the word and I haven't seen her, would Li Mei-jie think that you don't even have any status with me at all?” ”Think about it, if any of the young eunuchs were to ask to meet Beauty Li, would I have met her?”
Wei Zhao's eyes widened as he spun around in a circle. He wanted to jump up, but he suppressed his desire with a pout. With so many twists and turns inside, he took a sip from the teacup in front of him and immediately stuck out his tongue in pain.
”Father, this son of mine is too smart to handle. Not only do you manage the country, but you also manage the harem. You're the smartest person in the world!”
Wei Zhao was about to continue speaking when he suddenly recalled the eunuch from the steward's room, and smiled maliciously, ”Royal father, your son shall hold a banquet for you tonight! Even though Huang Xiang is only nine years old, I'm still younger than him. ”
”Fine, go ahead. I, too, will experience your filial piety!”
After a while, he came out and saw that his face was full of old chrysanthemums. Then, Emperor Qing He heard him say in a low voice, ”The princess said that the bed is too big for the temperature; it's too warm. Now, roll around on top …”
”Pfft!” Emperor Qing He snorted. The jealousy in his heart towards his daughter for favoring outsiders had been neutralized. The PH value in his body must be very basic right now.
As soon as he spoke, Emperor Qing He couldn't sit still anymore. He quietly went into the inner room and stood beside the screen to look inside. Wei Zhao was sprawled out on the bed like a tired little frog, occasionally pouting. But he was probably too tired to hold on any longer.
It wasn't that he didn't care about the princes and princesses in the past, but every single one of them had already known how to salute and pay their respects at the age of one. All of them were taught according to the rules of a wise monarch, as if they were born with the fortune of a king, and only Wei Zhao was born and raised in the common people. Although he was a little restrained when he first entered the palace, as the days passed by, the lively and mischievous nature of her couldn't help but emerge.
Emperor Qing He returned to the outside world and stood by the window looking at the starry sky. He spoke with hesitation in his voice, ”What do you think if you tell the Du Family that Wei Zhao died from an illness?” The more he said, the more he felt that it was feasible, so he continued speaking faster, ”I can give them more gold and silver as compensation, so that they can raise a new heir!”
Senior Officer Zheng's lips quivered, not daring to speak until Emperor Qinghe turned to look at him. Only then did he muster up the courage to speak. ”This servant doesn't dare question master's thoughts. This servant thinks that the princess values her kinship greatly.”
”Forget it. I've promised her that we'll wait a bit longer.” Although he said that he would have to wait, he still mentioned it when he saw Tutor Qian the next day. He made Tutor Qian feel as if he'd drunk water from Huang Lian's mouth.
”Your Majesty, everything is better than everything else. The heaven is selfless, and the reputation of the reading partners is also tied to the princess. If something were to happen to the reading partners, how would the world view it? Losing the will of the people is not worth it. Furthermore, it seems like the Du Family is still quite honest and there is nothing wrong with it. ”
After Emperor Qing He was exhorted, he felt depressed in his heart. He just wanted his daughter to be on his own, that's all. But even this little request of his couldn't be fulfilled!
The depressed emperor decided to take a walk around the imperial harem to see Beauty Li and see what she was up to.
As the months went by, the palace gradually became more lively, especially with the addition of a large group of children. Wei Zhao ran back and forth every day, practicing his tree climbing skills.
Wei Zhao was a bit curious as to what Emperor Qing He had said to the beauty, but he instinctively felt that it was better not to ask about such matters.
