The Holy Emperor had no interest in paying him any attention.
He then stood up, holding Lin Wanwan in his arms, and with a flick of his dragon robe, said, "Dismiss the court."
Then he strode away.
"Your Majesty, I dare not do it again. I beg Your Majesty for mercy..."
"His Majesty……"
Marquis Zhenbei kept his eyes closed and kowtowed, begging for mercy, completely unaware of the Holy Emperor's words, "Dismiss the court."
Before long, a number of people were standing in front of him.
They're all doting fathers...
General Yao chuckled and said, "Marquis of Zhenbei, His Majesty is not here, but we are. Why don't you ask us for help? Perhaps we can be of assistance to you?"
As soon as General Yao finished speaking, the Marquis of Zhenbei suddenly opened his eyes and looked up.
No one knew when, but His Majesty was no longer in the Golden Palace.
His face darkened, he stood up, and then dusted himself off.
"No need!"
He flicked his sleeves and turned to leave the Golden Palace.
General Yao, known for his big mouth, would not let such an opportunity pass. He followed the Marquis of Zhenbei, asking questions as they walked.
"Marquis of Zhenbei, may I ask what your feelings are about keeping a mistress?"
"Is that mistress's child yours?"
"I heard your wife accepted that mistress. How did you appease her?"
"Hey, hey, don't go..."
The Marquis of Zhenbei was so frightened by the voice behind him that he fled in panic.
On the way, he kept resenting Zou Shuang'er for revealing his identity, and even more so resenting Ye Lanyin for not agreeing to let him take a concubine in the past.
The Holy Emperor carried Lin Wanwan back to the Imperial Study.
He saw Lin Chang'an sitting there obediently, waiting for him.
He was extremely satisfied.
He was thinking about how to get him to come to the palace every day.
Hehe, what a great day! What a great day!!!
The Prime Minister, like him, was also cuckolded.
Marquis of Zhenbei was demoted.
He suddenly obtained the Truth Talisman.
They learned the inside story of some ministers.
He held Lin Wanwan as if she were a rare treasure, unable to put her down.
"Wanwan, how about you and the Second Prince become sworn brothers?"
"He's your brother?"
The Holy Emperor coaxed her, and in doing so, he also brought Lin Chang'an over.
"Chang'an, what do you think about having your sister become my daughter? It would be better to have one more person to protect her."
Lin Chang'an couldn't have asked for it.
The thought of being able to eat as much as he wanted in the imperial kitchen made him smile so much his face almost closed into a line.
"Yes, Your Majesty is kind and benevolent; my sister will surely like it."
No, I have a daddy.
The Holy Emperor's face darkened. What kind of father was the Marquis of Zhenbei?
He's even worse than the emperor, who favors sons over daughters.
"Wanwan, shall I be your father?"
"Now you have two fathers, one in your household and one in the palace."
The Holy Emperor, like a child, stretched out two long, slender fingers and gestured as if the child in front of him recognized them.
"If you agree, would you please nod?" The Holy Emperor asked expectantly.
Lin Wanwan pouted and shook her head.
【No, no.】
Upon hearing this, the Holy Emperor's eyes dimmed with disappointment.
I don't want a scumbag father; he's not my father.
My father is the Regent, my uncle's younger brother!
Lin Wanwan's thoughts settled.
The chicken claw in Lin Chang'an's hand fell to the ground with a thud.
The Holy Emperor was struck dumb, his eyes widened, and he was so shocked that he could hardly close his mouth.
How does this child know these things?
The Holy Emperor thought about it again and realized that her being different from ordinary people was not surprising.
But in order to prevent Lin Wanwan from noticing anything amiss, he forcefully suppressed his inner elation.
So, she's a member of the royal family?
His... niece?
!!
That won't do.
The regent remained unmarried for over a decade, and his wife acted as both father and mother to him.
This child must call him Dad!
Lin Chang'an's palms felt cold. He wondered many times who his biological father was, but he never expected it to be the Regent.
So, let's put it this way.
He and his friend Xiao Chengyun have the same father?
Who is Xiao Chengyun? Could he be my own older brother?
It's a big event; he needs to go back and tell his brother right away.
He hurriedly took Lin Wanwan from the Holy Emperor's arms.
"Well, Your Majesty, my mother said I shouldn't come home too late."
"I came to the palace secretly this time. Could you please send me back?"
If Mother knew, he would have brought his sister into the palace without prior notice.
I'll definitely beat him to death!
The Holy Emperor looked at the sky and saw that the sun was indeed about to set.
"Eunuch Wang, send someone to take him back."
Standing not far away, Eunuch Wang smiled and said, "This servant obeys the decree."
"Remember, make sure you get there safely," the Holy Emperor added.
Lin Wanwan is still young, and it's not a good thing for her to be too sharp. She can't let people discover that she's different from ordinary people.
Otherwise, if word gets to the ears of the Marquis of Zhenbei, he won't know how to use the child.
"No one is to utter a single word about what happened today, whether they know it or not!"
"This servant understands."
Before long, Eunuch Wang helped the two of them onto the carriage.
Fearing they might be going to the palace, Eunuch Wang specially sent the child to the Ye family, and then the Ye family sent him to the Zhenbei Marquis's residence.
Afterwards, he went to a government office to inform them of the events of the day's court proceedings.
When Lin Wanwan returned to the Marquis's residence, it was almost dark.
Ye Lanyin paced anxiously back and forth in the room.
Finally seeing her two children, she quickly went over and took the daughter from her son's arms.
"Chang'an, why are you so late coming back?"
Hehe, went to the palace and had a big meal...
Lin Chang'an: ...
Well, he can't beat someone who's still nursing.
Lying is something he'll probably never be able to do again from now on!
Ye Lanyin looked at Lin Chang'an with a scrutinizing gaze, as if to say, "Try lying to me."
