Chapter 471 A good hand of cards played badly
After the person from Changle Palace finished reporting, Ji Sheng stood where he was and did not follow her to Changle Palace immediately.
"Daddy."
Xixi, who had just finished washing up, still had a sleepy little voice.
She tried hard to open her eyes, and after seeing her father's position clearly, she opened her arms to him like a spoiled child.
Ji Sheng hugged Xixi, who was about to fall down, and said softly, "It's time for your morning class."
Xixi nestled in Jisheng's arms. After finding a suitable position, she leaned her head against him and said to her father, "Daddy, do you know?"
"Um?"
"A child who doesn't get enough sleep won't grow tall." After saying that, Xixi leaned directly into Ji Sheng's arms and fell asleep again.
She could still sleep for a while between here and the morning class.
Ji Sheng helplessly looked at Xixi who was sleeping in his arms. After sighing slightly, he raised his eyes to look at Chunque who was looking at him with some resentment not far away.
Ji Sheng raised his eyebrows and asked her what was wrong with his eyes.
Chunque faced Ji Sheng, suppressed her dissatisfaction, and muttered to him: "Young master is right. My master said that children who don't get enough sleep will not grow tall."
During the time Chunque was with Xixi, she felt heartbroken seeing Xixi so tired every day.
Ji Sheng: “…”
Well, he asked why Xixi kept muttering this to him, and it turned out that Zhou Yunshu said it to her.
Ji Sheng looked at his daughter's little face carefully, feeling a little confused. Is it true that if she doesn't get enough sleep, she won't grow taller?
Because of this doubt, Ji Sheng did not carry Xixi to class, but instead carried her and took people to Changle Palace.
When Ji Sheng slowly came to Changle Palace with Xixi in his arms, Ji Mingzhu had already changed her clothes and had been waiting for Ji Sheng for quite some time.
Ji Sheng carried Xixi into Changle Palace and saw Zhou Jianying kneeling at the palace gate.
After taking a quick glance, Ji Sheng continued walking into the hall, not caring at all and not curious about why Zhou Jianying was kneeling here.
In the entire Changle Palace, the only servants were Nanny Wang and Chu San, and there were countless candles.
When Ji Sheng arrived at the bedroom of Changle Palace and saw Ji Mingzhu, dressed in gorgeous clothes and leaning on a soft couch, he glanced around and found no other place to sit.
However, it is obvious that some people still have good discernment.
After Ji Sheng took a look, someone immediately brought him a throne.
Ji Sheng held Xixi and sat down. Xixi pursed her lips and slept soundly in his arms. She had no idea that she was brought to Changle Palace by her biological father.
"I have something I want to say to you alone."
Ji Mingzhu looked at Ji Sheng, who was in his prime, and said slowly.
After Ji Mingzhu finished speaking, Chu San and Nanny Wang were the first to leave the hall.
Ji Mingzhu looked at the people around Ji Sheng. Ji Sheng raised his hand and his men retreated one after another.
Only Chunque hesitated for a while, thought about it, and followed them out.
Chunque thought she should be more self-aware, because the eldest princess and the regent would definitely not agree to her staying.
But Chunque thought about it and felt that it didn't matter. Maybe Xixi woke up when they were talking. Chunque didn't know what they talked about, but it was okay for Xixi to know.
Xixi knew that her master would know, after all, Xixi told her master almost everything.
Thinking of this, Chunque immediately felt relieved and waited outside the palace.
But Xixi was destined to disappoint Chunque. She did hear someone talking next to her, but she couldn't hear what was said at all.
When she woke up, only Ji Sheng and Ji Mingzhu were in the palace. She rubbed her eyes, looked around, and then looked at her father in disbelief: "Dad, you took me to skip class!?"
Ji Sheng: “…”
"Oh! I skipped class!" Xixi got up from Ji Sheng's arms and stepped on Ji Sheng's legs, seeming to be very excited about skipping class.
She had never skipped classes since she came to the palace and started attending classes, but she didn't expect that her father would take her to skip classes today.
"Can we skip classes often in the future?" Xixi looked at Ji Sheng expectantly.
Facing the huge, shrill eyes, Ji Sheng shook his head cruelly and said, "No."
Xixi was immediately disappointed.
"However, classes can start half an hour later in the future. I'll talk to the tutor."
"Very good!"
Ji Mingzhu leaned weakly on the couch, feeling a moment of envy when she looked at the father and daughter in front of her.
She had lived in Changle Palace since she was three years old, and her father had played with her like this here before.
Ji Mingzhu exhaled slowly. She missed her father a little.
"They will be here tomorrow, right?" Ji Mingzhu wanted to say a complete sentence now, but she felt exhausted all over.
She knew her body couldn't hold on any longer.
When a person is about to die, his thoughts always change in the blink of an eye.
Time is running out and she doesn't want to leave any regrets.
For example, now, Ji Mingzhu really wants to meet the Zhou family, even if they may not want to see her.
"possible."
"I want to see Zhou Jianwu."
"good."
Ji Sheng stood up and looked at Ji Mingzhu who was leaning weakly on the couch and asked, "Anything else?"
"Yes, can you make it happen?"
Ji Sheng didn't say anything, just looked at Ji Mingzhu.
"I want to see Yunshu."
When Xixi heard her mother's name, she immediately looked at her father.
Ji Sheng said: "After death, yes."
Ji Mingzhu: "...You are really, as always, annoying."
"The same to you."
"Cough cough!" Ji Mingzhu covered her chest angrily.
She felt that a large part of the reason why she had fallen to this point was because she was angry at Ji, this heartless little beast who didn't know how to respect the elderly and love the young!
"Should we call the doctor?"
Ji was afraid that if he didn't call the imperial physician, Ji Mingzhu would die today.
"roll!"
"oh."
Now, she is probably the only one in the Great Zhou who can say "get lost" to Ji Sheng.
Ji Sheng was not angry either. After all, he had heard a lot of unpleasant words since he was a child, so the word "get out" was nothing.
On the contrary, Ji Sheng even felt that Ji Mingzhu was a bit pitiful now.
She is still the same as before, nothing she does is pure or thorough.
When Ruizong died, she lacked the courage; after Emperor Guangdi died after three years in power, she had no ambition to ascend the throne; after finally assisting his father Daizong to ascend the throne, she naively and greedily wanted to be a regent princess who was above the emperor.
Sometimes Ji Sheng would think that Ji Mingzhu had played a good hand badly.
If he was Ji Mingzhu, he would have been in power before Ruizong died, and there would have been no events like Emperor Guangdi and Emperor Daizong later.
In fact, if Ji Mingzhu was willing to be a married princess after her father ascended the throne, she would be very happy.
Zhou Cungao was a powerful and devoted woman. Except for the youngest who was a little troublesome, her two sons were all talented generals, not to mention her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
She could have lived a happy life.
As long as she doesn't always feel unwilling to accept the situation, always staring at what she has lost and forgetting what she has.
If you want everything, you will get nothing.
