Chapter 466
The Regent nodded. "Your Majesty, I understand. Now that Your Majesty has recovered, it is time to resume the morning court sessions."
Wen Xin: "..."
Early morning court = getting up before dawn = saying goodbye to sleeping in!
Wait a minute, or I'll take back everything I said earlier. Your Highness, please come in, please come in quickly, goodbye!
Xiao Jin: "..."
Master, your love for His Highness the Regent is actually less than your love for sleeping in.
What kind of plastic true love is this?
Wen Xin was not guilty at all and said righteously: "Not getting enough sleep is a waste of your beauty. Without beauty, where would I get true love?"
Little Jin almost banged his head against the wall. What kind of twisted logic was his master spouting now?
Her Majesty the Empress tried her best to reason with the Regent, resolutely refusing to hold court in the morning. "Your Highness, my injuries are not yet healed, and I am really weak."
Regent: "..." I really couldn't tell!
Wen Xin instantly channeled her inner movie queen, her steps faltering slightly, "Your Highness, please help me, I'm dizzy."
Regent: "..."
Even though he knew she was faking it, the Regent still reached out to support her. He felt the soft, boneless girl snuggle into his arms, and his thin lips twitched violently.
Little Jin couldn't bear to watch any longer and almost roared out: Master, please be more reserved!
Wen Xin: This is a matriarchal world. I am the emperor. If I want something, I will have it. What's with the pretense?
That's how majestic and domineering emperors are!
Little Jin chuckled maliciously: Master, you can't access it!
What can a little kid like him attend?
Wen Xin... Wen Xin crushed a stupid butterfly to death, and then cried herself blind.
Couldn't the soul fragments have been a little more resilient? Let her come back when she's an adult!
Who understands the misery of seeing something you can't have but can't have it?
I am simply the most unpretentious emperor in history.
No harem, and I've got my eye on a handsome guy, but I don't even have the means to get him... *sobs*
The heartbroken little empress hugged the regent's strong waist, nuzzled against his chest, and tried to comfort herself by taking advantage of him.
Ah, Your Highness's waist is so slender yet strong, and your chest is quite ample.
Her Majesty the Empress is shy~~
As for why she hugged the Regent twice without showing any sign of doubt about his gender?
The young empress, feigning ignorance, raised her hand and replied: "I am still a child!"
Isn't her chest flat too?
I don't understand! I don't understand!
Focus on getting a good deal!
The Regent, feeling completely uncomfortable from being rubbed against this soft body in his arms: "..."
He stood there with his hands frozen, wanting to push her away but not daring to use force.
Helpless, the Regent could only coldly look at Granny Wan and the other palace servants, "Didn't you hear His Majesty say he's not feeling well? Quickly summon the imperial physician!"
Palace servants: "..."
Your Highness, you can't do anything about His Majesty, so you take it out on us servants. Is that really a good thing?
Okay, subordinates have no human rights!
The Regent's Adam's apple bobbed beneath his high collar, his voice slightly hoarse. "Your Majesty, let me help you to your bed to rest."
On the tatami mat!!!
The young empress was so excited that she blurted out, "Your Highness, shall we come together?"
Regent: "???"
"Cough cough cough..."
Wen Xin released him and suddenly covered her mouth and coughed.
At this point, the Regent had no intention of questioning her lewd words. He quickly supported her and gently patted her back, asking, "How is Your Majesty?"
Wen Xin coughed so hard she could barely stand, so the Regent picked her up and carried her to the phoenix bed.
Is it developing so fast?
The little empress got so excited that she coughed even more violently, and her pretty face turned red.
Well, this time she really choked on her own saliva.
The regent's brows were furrowed with worry as he coldly rebuked the palace servants, "Why hasn't the imperial physician arrived yet?"
"Quickly, pour me a glass of warm water."
Coughing until she felt weak all over, Wen Xin leaned softly against the Regent's chest. She took a few sips of warm water from his hand and managed to suppress the itching in her throat.
She looked at the Regent with her watery eyes, pleading, "Your Highness, I feel unwell."
The Regent's heart trembled with a pang of pain, and he couldn't help but hug her tighter. His deep voice was full of gentle comfort, "Your Majesty, don't be afraid. The imperial physician will be here soon. It's alright. Your humble servant will stay here with you."
The young empress said, moved, "Your Highness, you are the best person in the world to me."
"I was foolish before, I couldn't understand people's hearts, and I always misunderstood you. I'm sorry."
The Regent's dark, deep eyes reflected her figure, his expression gentle and focused. "It was your humble servant who failed to protect Your Majesty."
How could there be such a gentle and doting regent?
They're hers! They're hers!
The girl's eyes sparkled, and a blush rose to her cheeks. This time, it wasn't a cough, but rather...
The Regent's eyes darkened.
The distance between the two seemed to be closing.
"Your Highness, the imperial physician has arrived."
Granny Wan's voice startled the Regent. He snapped back to reality, his heart pounding uncontrollably, and he nearly pushed the girl in his arms away in a moment of panic and uncertainty.
Fortunately, he instinctively protected her, not wanting her to get hurt in the slightest.
But at this moment, his body was as stiff as a stone, and he awkwardly looked away, not daring to look at her again.
The regent bit his tongue hard, the taste of blood irritating him. He wanted to slap himself. Was he a beast?
This is the child he has watched grow up since he was a baby!
How could this be...
Is he really crazy?
Suppressing his inner turmoil, the Regent spoke in a cold voice, "Summon him."
The imperial physicians rushed in to take the young empress's pulse, and the result was...
Um?
Forehead……
His Majesty is doing well!
Absolutely perfect!
Why are the palace servants and the regent making it seem like His Majesty is on his deathbed?
It almost scared these people in high-risk professions to death.
No, let's take another look. If they're not careful and don't notice anything wrong with His Majesty, and something happens to him, their whole family will be beheaded.
Wen Xin: "..." Are these imperial physicians all idiots sent by monkeys?
They're the ones who have cat biscuits!
The Regent watched as the imperial physician examined the emperor's pulse for a long time, growing increasingly anxious. He had no other thoughts but fear that something might happen to the little emperor in his arms.
His voice turned several degrees colder, "What exactly is wrong with His Majesty?"
The cold and ruthless aura made the imperial physicians break out in a cold sweat, wishing they could dig a hole and hide themselves.
Waaaaah... Your Highness is so scary!
The head imperial physician, under pressure, swallowed hard and said, "Your Highness, His Majesty is just a little feverish; his health is fine."
The regent was somewhat distrustful of these quack doctors. "Are you sure?"
The imperial physicians: "..."
Did they answer "yes" or "I'll think about it"?
Um... what exactly does Your Highness mean by this?
Is it genuine concern for His Majesty, or...?
Thinking of all the rumors circulating outside, the imperial physicians racked their brains: Could it be that His Majesty has just regained some power, and His Highness can no longer tolerate her and is about to suppress and imprison her?
For example, making His Majesty fall seriously ill so that he can no longer appear in court...
Ugh, political infighting is terrifying! They want to go home!
The Regent grew increasingly annoyed by this group of cowardly fools who kept making up their own ideas, and his tone became chillingly cold.
