"Chang'an greets His Majesty, Your Majesty..."
"Let's forget about these empty formalities." The emperor smiled. "Did you feel cold all the way here?"
Chang'an was surprised that the emperor at this moment looked different from the one he had seen in the imperial study before.
She smiled and said, "It's not too cold. It's the middle of winter after all, so it won't be warm at all."
The Emperor glanced at Chang'an with a hint of surprise. "Your answer really surprises me. If it were anyone else, they would definitely say it's not cold."
Changan smiled, "Your Majesty cares about this?"
"I don't mind." The emperor looked directly at Chang'an. "I am happy to hear some flattery."
"Chang'an is also willing. Chang'an also knows that the emperor is happy to listen, but he is not confused in his heart."
The emperor shook his cloak and said, "I am not confused, I am just old and can no longer make trouble, nor do I want to. Sometimes I just pretend to be confused when I know the truth."
"For example!" The emperor turned back with a smile on his face. "In Anxi Palace, you told me about the Fourth Prince and your companions going to the Jiuli Bridge Lake Pavilion. Or, in the Imperial Study, you used provocation to instigate the burning of the Southern Kingdom's imperial edict."
A flash of surprise flashed across Chang'an's eyes. This was something she hadn't expected. Chang'an wondered, were these words from the Emperor a test after his suspicions, or something he was already certain of? What was the Emperor's purpose in saying this now?
