Chapter 25: The Middle-Aged Childless Emperor * The Prince's Daughter Entered the Palace on Behalf of Someone Else (25)



[Host, you're truly amazing! You're truly a master at winning people over!]

Xin Guoguo: ...

Forget it, I’m too lazy to explain!

"What are you thinking, my dear?"

The emperor strode in and saw the little girl lying in the rocking chair, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

He walked over, stood beside the little girl, and lowered his eyes to look at her.

A handsome face that looked slightly haggard appeared in his sight, and Xin Guoguo sighed:

"Your Majesty, promise me that I will not insult your face again!"

Really! If this continues, by the time she gives birth, she'll probably be a dozen years older!

emperor:……

Helpless and amusing: "Does Guoguo dislike my old age?"

That’s right, the little girl is only in her teens, and he is almost forty years old.

The sudden mention of the age difference made the emperor feel a sense of urgency.

Xin Guoguo stood up and raised her little hand.

The emperor immediately understood, picked up the girl, sat down on the couch, and let the little girl lean on his arms.

"I didn't say that! Your Majesty, this is called the charm of a mature man! However, I am worried that when the child grows up and sees Your Majesty and me, will he make a mistake?"

For example, they called her "mother" but called the emperor "grandfather".

Emperor: d(?д??)

Sudden panic!

"I will pay attention!"

The little girl burst out laughing, and soon she fell into the emperor's arms:

"Your Majesty is so cute!"

emperor:……

"Cute" and such are a bit embarrassing!

The two of them cuddled together for a while, and Xin Guoguo leaned on the emperor's shoulder, playing with his fingers:

"I heard from Liuli that His Majesty has released Consort Shu."

"Are you angry, my beloved?"

The emperor came here just for this matter.

He was worried that the little girl would think too much.

But the little girl shook her head and said, "Your Majesty must have a purpose for doing this."

Her sensible appearance made the emperor feel even more distressed.

He hugged her tightly and explained softly:

"Zongzheng has surrendered his military power and accepted my enfeoffment."

The little girl looked up in confusion, her face full of bewilderment.

What does this have to do with releasing Concubine Shu?

"Zongzheng has been stationed in the north for many years, but he has only engaged in minor battles and has avoided direct conflict with the northern barbarians. This is to serve as a restraining force for me, so that I can favor Shufei."

"But now that he's back, is he compromising with His Majesty in exchange for Consort Shu's freedom?"

The little girl was surprised, and after seeing his affirmative look, she was even more envious.

"Your Highness is so lucky!"

Unfortunately, she doesn't appreciate her blessings.

The emperor also sighed:

"Zong Zheng is a rare military talent, and he is also upright and loyal. If it weren't for Concubine Shu..."

The king and his ministers would not have gotten to this point.

"Then what does Your Majesty intend to let General Zong do in the future?"

Ever since he started reviewing memorials in Yong'an Palace, the emperor would not deliberately hide court affairs from Xin Guoguo, and would even occasionally complain to her, saying that so-and-so talked too much nonsense, that so-and-so couldn't do things, etc.

Therefore, it was natural for Xin Guoguo to ask about this matter at this moment.

The emperor shook his head.

"He is a talented general. But I can no longer let him lead troops or go to the battlefield. Therefore, he can only be an idle prince."

No emperor could tolerate an uncontrolled person stationed in a key border area.

“What a pity!”

The little girl sighed, "It would be great if his skills could be passed on to others."

The seemingly unintentional sigh made the emperor's eyes light up:

"Yes! Why didn't I think of that? Zong Zheng can't lead troops, but he can teach others how to lead troops! Guo Guo is really smart, worthy of being my little lucky star!"

The emperor couldn't help but kiss the little girl's forehead, his face full of excitement.

Xin Guoguo: ...

She pouted, "Your Majesty is disgusting! It's all saliva!"

The little girl's disgust was so obvious, but the emperor was not angry. Instead, he burst into laughter.

The little girl hugged his neck angrily and kissed him on the face again and again, deliberately making the emperor's face covered with saliva.

But someone is so shameless that he actually enjoys it:

"Here, here, we haven't kissed here yet, Guoguo can't be partial."

Xin Guoguo: (︶︿︶) = convex

Tired! Destroy!

The little girl's angry look made the emperor laugh again.

Xin Guoguo simply pinched his face with her little hands and pulled it to both sides, finally stopping him from laughing.

The little girl was satisfied now. She raised her chin and looked very proud. Her expression seemed to say, "Look, I can't laugh anymore!"

The emperor couldn't help laughing and thought the little girl was so super cute!

He held the little girl's hand and hugged her again: "Be careful, don't fall."

After making a fuss for a while, Xin Guoguo was tired and finally sat quietly in the man's arms. She couldn't help but ask him curiously:

"Your Majesty, I have a question for you."

"you say."

"I'm curious, simply curious. Since you value General Zong so much, under what circumstances would you not allow him to live?"
