He slowly descended the steps, approaching Ling Xiao step by step. The chief eunuch beside him made a feigned obstruction, but the emperor gently brushed him aside and lowered his head without moving.
As the man drew closer, Ling Xiao remained completely unafraid, instead letting out a soft laugh.
At this time, the singing and dancing in the hall had stopped at some point, and the people were no longer chatting and exchanging toasts; one could hear a pin drop.
The little girl's soft laughter carried far.
The emperor squatted down, looked directly at her, and said solemnly:
