His Majesty the King glanced at Gu Shaoyong, his eyes showing a slight but undisguised disapproval: "What are you talking about, what blessings or not? Shaoyong, we are now implementing new policies. To be honest, I, the King, am just the helmsman of a country. I am no more noble than anyone else."
"The same goes for Xiao Wu."
"Although he is a prince, he is also a citizen of China, just like everyone else. His status as a prince only adds to his responsibilities, it doesn't mean he is more noble than anyone else."
“It’s a good thing that the kids get along. You don’t know, I used to worry that Xiao Wu’er, who is so young, doesn’t have a single friend. I was afraid that he might become too withdrawn. I was really afraid that his personality might become extreme because of this.”
"Fortunately, we have your little girl. She is truly our little Wu'er's lucky star."
"You don't know, he was still in Xichuan at that time, and it was your little girl who saved him once, and that's how their fate was formed."
"Originally, he returned to the capital, and your little girl was in Xichuan, which is far away. It wouldn't be easy for them to meet again. Who knew that little girl would turn out to be your beloved daughter who had been lost for many years? You even brought her back to the capital, and the two children met again in the palace. Tell me, isn't this fate?"
Gu Shaoyong felt increasingly uneasy.
What do you mean by fate?
What does His Majesty the King want to do?
Aren't you always so busy with official duties that you forget to eat and sleep, giving the physicians a real headache? What brings you here today to chat with me?
No, Your Majesty... I didn't want this, and neither did my daughter!
Gu Shaoyong chuckled and said, "It was quite a coincidence that day. My little girl is shy and timid, and she doesn't get along with other boys and girls, so she ran out to play by herself. Who knew she would run into the Fifth Prince..."
As soon as the words left his mouth, Gu Shaoyong wanted to slap himself.
Why are you speaking such blunt truths?
Sure enough, His Majesty the King immediately said, "Yes, that's why it's said to be the fate of the two children. Little Wu'er doesn't get along with others, and your little girl doesn't get along with others either, but these two get along so well. Shaoyong, tell me, what else could this be but fate?"
"They're a match made in heaven!"
Gu Shaoyong's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly shook his head and waved his hands: "No, no, no, Your Majesty, that's not how you use the term 'a match made in heaven.' My daughter Duo'er and the Fifth Prince are friends, so it's not appropriate to say that they're a match made in heaven."
His Majesty the King pretended not to understand the hidden meaning in Gu Shaoyong's words, nodded seriously, and said, "It's good to be friends. They're childhood sweethearts, innocent and inseparable. When they grow up, that's the foundation of their relationship. Only when two people with such a foundation are together can they live a sweet and happy life."
"You and your wife had a very good relationship even before you got married, and your relationship is still very good now, so good that others envy you..."
Gu Shaoyong practically wanted to kneel before His Majesty the King. Could you please stop this?
Gu Shaoyong steeled his resolve and looked at His Majesty the King with a serious expression, saying, "Your Majesty, my Duo'er and the Fifth Prince are still young, just two children. Their personalities are not yet settled, who knows what will happen to them in the future?"
