"Marquis of Zhenbei, do you know what you're saying?"
"This title has been passed down through three generations, and there has never been any reason for it to be passed on in a skipped order!"
Marquis Zhenbei was somewhat apprehensive, but he still forced himself to continue speaking.
“Your Majesty, I know that such a request is against etiquette, but Your Majesty, my grandfather died young for the late Emperor, and I am deeply saddened.”
“These past few days, my grandfather has been appearing in my dreams, saying that he is in pain…”
【Ouch!】
They've even played the emotional card.
Upon hearing the faint whispers behind the screen, the Holy Emperor let out a cold snort.
I don't know how the Marquis of Zhenbei could be so lucky to have a wife like Ye Lanyin.
Unfortunately, several of his children were not his bloodline, yet the emperor couldn't do anything about it!
"Marquis of Zhenbei! I will not allow this!"
“Even if your grandfather were to rise from his grave, I would not agree. This was a promise made to your grandfather by the late Emperor. Even if you have the ability, go and find the late Emperor.”
snort!
I don't know what got into the late emperor, but he bestowed a title upon him!
Rewarding them with some gold and silver jewelry would be enough.
Is this title something that can be conferred so easily?
He just keeps leaving a mess.
Hehe, actually it wouldn't hurt to give it to him.
The concubine was the daughter of a disgraced official, and her son was her son.
[If we wipe them all out, the Marquis of Zhenbei will have nothing left.]
Oh dear, we're back to square one...
[I don't even have underwear to wear...]
The Holy Emperor frowned slightly.
The daughter of a disgraced official?
He couldn't help but think of Consort Zhao again. Consort Zhao was also the daughter of a disgraced official, and she and the fake crown prince tried to seize his throne.
The Marquis of Zhenbei wept and knelt on the ground again and again, kowtowing repeatedly.
"Your Majesty, please have mercy on me!"
“These days, Shixuan has also gained the favor of the Second Prince. If Shixuan passes the imperial examination, he can also share the burden with His Majesty.”
"Your Majesty, I am only concerned for my son and for the sake of the Marquis's mansion."
Despite Lin Wanwan's words, the Holy Emperor still had to consider it.
This involves national laws, and he has to consider it carefully.
"Go out."
The Holy Emperor waved his hand.
After hearing this, Eunuch Wang walked to the side of Marquis Zhenbei and said, "Marquis Zhenbei, please."
Knowing that his efforts were futile, Marquis Zhenbei had no choice but to withdraw.
But he won't give up.
The fact that His Majesty wasn't angry just now shows that he's not completely opposed to it.
Then he still has a chance.
He bowed to the emperor and then withdrew.
The Regent had only ever heard Lin Wanwan call him "Dad" in her childish voice before, but now that he had spent more time with her, he discovered that this little one was quite capable.
She knows even these things, just who is she?
He suppressed the countless doubts that filled his mind.
Soon the imperial kitchen brought out the food.
The Holy Emperor specially instructed the imperial kitchen to prepare a separate meal for Lin Wanwan according to her taste.
Looking at the different dishes on the menu.
Lin Wanwan wanted to cry.
Braised chicken turned into shredded vegetables.
Chicken legs turned into minced meat.
Even my favorite chicken soup has been turned into milk...
【Ahhh.】
Lin Wanwan couldn't help but roar in her heart.
That's so unfair!
How did the meal she had been longing for turn out like this?
The heads of the group were all buzzing, yet each of them acted better than the last.
Seeing his tearful expression, the Holy Emperor reached out and gently patted her head.
“Wanwan, you’re not even a year old yet. Last time you ate so much, you had a stomachache when you got home.”
"Your mother did not blame me, entirely because I am the emperor, and she gave me face."
"No matter what I say today, I cannot let you eat as much as you want." He also longed for everyone to become one family, and he could not afford to offend his sister-in-law.
Changing the subject, the Holy Emperor beamed with joy.
"However, when you turn one year old, I will attend your first birthday banquet. I will have the imperial kitchen prepare a table full of chicken legs and pork knuckles for you, how about that?"
The crown prince suppressed a laugh.
He personally brought the milk and fed it to Lin Wanwan, who was pouting her little mouth, spoonful by spoonful.
Even the usually aloof and cold-hearted regent has his own thoughts.
He was completely dumbfounded.
What's going on?
The emperor coaxed him.
The Crown Prince personally served him.
What exactly did he miss during this time?
After finishing the meal.
The Holy Emperor and the Crown Prince personally escorted Lin Wanwan and Lin Chang'an back to Fengyi Palace.
The regent returned to his palace, filled with shock and confusion.
After lighting the incense burner, Yao Qianshu excitedly ran back to the Imperial Study, not even pausing for breath along the way.
He was muttering to himself.
"Imperial cuisine, imperial cuisine, imperial cuisine, I, Yao Qianshu, have arrived!!"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
The weather in August was scorching hot and freezing cold. He couldn't wait to eat some imperial food to cool off and drink some ice-cold sugar water.
I ran happily all the way, and apart from being a little thirsty, I didn't feel tired at all.
When he arrived at the door of the Imperial Study, he smiled and knocked on the door.
"Your Majesty, I'm back."
But no one answered from inside.
He then extended his left hand and tapped with both hands together.
"Your Majesty, I'm back."
...
There was no response from inside.
He knocked again.
"His Majesty?"
"Wanwan?"
"Chang'an?"
I called out several times, but no one responded and the door didn't open.
Yao Qianshu saw a eunuch sweeping in front of the corridor and jogged over to him.
"Brother, may I ask if His Majesty is inside?"
The young eunuch, upon seeing that it was Yao Qianshu, smiled and put down his broom.
"Young Master Yao, why are you still here? His Majesty finished his lunch and left long ago."
