He used to think that his daughter was grown up at fifteen, but now that Yun'er is almost eighteen, he feels that Nan Zhiyun is becoming more and more childish.
"Furthermore... I plan to make Yun'er Empress on that day." Yu Jingchen's words caused a huge stir, and everyone present was taken aback by them.
Nan Zhiyun, in particular, was completely stunned, standing there speechless, looking utterly dumbfounded.
She was to be made empress? Nan Zhiyun even doubted her ears. Was it really her?
"Your Majesty..." Nan Zhiyun's words became incoherent.
"What's wrong? Can't you even speak properly?" Yu Jingchen found Nan Zhiyun's appearance rather amusing.
Nan Zhiyun bit her lip, and slowly stood up, seemingly lost in thought. No one knew what Nan Zhiyun was planning to do; they simply watched as she slowly walked towards Yu Jingchen.
Yu Jingchen didn't understand Nan Zhiyun's meaning either, but he still raised his hand and pulled Nan Zhiyun over.
"What's wrong? Are you unhappy?" Yu Jingchen asked her. Nan Zhiyun was pulled into Yu Jingchen's arms. Nan Zhiyun shook her head, which confused Yu Jingchen.
"What's wrong? Yun'er doesn't want to?" Yu Jingchen asked again, while Nan Su and the Empress Dowager looked at Nan Zhiyun without saying a word.
“Afraid…” Nan Zhiyun finally managed to utter a single word.
Afraid?
"Why are you afraid? What are you afraid of? Hmm?" Yu Jingchen asked her.
“I’m afraid I’m not good enough… I don’t know anything, so I’m afraid I can’t do the job… I’m afraid His Majesty won’t like me anymore… I’m afraid I’ll be killed…” Nan Zhiyun said a lot, but Yu Jingchen found it funny. He didn’t know why Nan Zhiyun would have such thoughts. He had never thought that Nan Zhiyun would think like this before.
"How can Yun'er think like that? Who said it's not possible?" Yu Jingchen coaxed her.
“That’s how it’s written in those storybooks. After becoming empress, many people will want to take the position and try to frame her. The empress has to do a lot of things. More importantly, in those storybooks, His Majesty doesn’t like the empress. They just seem to be a couple, but His Majesty won’t favor the empress.” Nan Zhiyun wrapped her arms around Yu Jingchen’s neck.
Upon hearing your words, Yu Jingchen was taken aback. What kind of statement was that? Nan Su and the Empress Dowager were also worried, but upon hearing Nan Zhiyun's answer, they were both amused and exasperated.
"Storybooks? Yun'er, you learned all this from picture books?" Yu Jingchen looked at Nan Zhiyun with amusement.
"Hmm... many stories are like this, not just one. If there was only one, I definitely wouldn't take it seriously. I would just treat it as a story. But almost all stories are written like this, so it must be reliable and based on reality." Nan Zhiyun spoke as if it were true, while her face showed a look of fear as she leaned against Yu Jingchen's chest, as if she were about to be abandoned after becoming empress.
Nan Zhiyun felt the vibration of Yu Jingchen's chest and was somewhat confused. She looked up at Yu Jingchen in bewilderment and found him smiling broadly.
Not only Yu Jingchen, but even his own father and the Empress Dowager couldn't hide their smiles.
Nan Zhiyun's face flushed red instantly. Why did everyone have to laugh at her?
"Your Majesty..." Nan Zhiyun's eyes were innocent, but Yu Jingchen was amused by Nan Zhiyun and laughed uncontrollably.
