Chapter 463: Susu was eager to read with me, but she got lost while leading the way...
Eunuch Li glanced around and saw the small figure of the emperor's granddaughter in front of the stone steps not far away.
"Your Majesty, the emperor's granddaughter seems to be there."
Upon hearing this, the emperor looked over and saw a small red figure holding a white ball with two small buns on her head. Who else could it be but Susu?
The crying continued, and it was particularly sad.
Susu greets people with a smile every day, and her smile is sweeter than sugar.
The emperor had already filled in his mind a long paragraph about others bullying his granddaughter, and then he strode over angrily.
Eunuch Li bent down and chased after him.
Susu and Xiaobai grew up together and have a very good relationship. She hugged Xiaobai tightly, fearing that Yin'er would snatch her away.
When the emperor arrived, Chu Lingfeng was the first to see him. He knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. I wish you good health and happiness."
Only then did Yin'er realize that the emperor had arrived. He was not afraid of anyone but the emperor himself.
"Grandson pays respects to the Emperor."
The emperor didn't even look at Yin'er. He went straight to Susu, hugged the still crying Susu into his arms, and soothed her gently, "Baby."
When Susu saw the emperor, she hugged his neck and cried even more sadly and aggrievedly, "Grandpa."
The emperor was so distressed when he saw his precious granddaughter crying so sadly. He took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears from Susu's cheeks, "Don't cry, baby."
Susu choked up twice: "Grandpa."
The emperor wiped it and asked, "Who bullied you? The emperor was so distressed.
Susu pointed at Yin'er and said with sobs, "Grandpa, he stepped on the cake and made a sizzling sound."
If it was the first time I heard Susu speak, I couldn't understand what she was saying at all.
However, the emperor had heard it countless times and could guess what his precious granddaughter was saying.
Yin'er was stepping on the crispy pastries and wanted to snatch the crispy white tiger.
No wonder the baby granddaughter cried so sadly. Her favorite cake was stepped on and she must be in so much pain.
Xiaobai is her little follower, and snatching her little follower is no different from snatching her food.
The emperor looked at Yin'er with anger, "Yin'er, kneel down for me."
Yin'er was most afraid of the Emperor. He immediately knelt down upon hearing this, and did not forget to explain: "Your Majesty, I did not step on my sister's cakes. I stepped on Prince Chu's cakes."
The emperor raised his eyes to look at Chu Lingfeng and asked coldly: "Prince Chu, whose cakes are these?"
Chu Lingfeng lowered his head. It was no longer possible to protect himself at this moment. No matter what he said, he would be beaten when he returned.
"Your Majesty, the little princess knew that I was hungry, so she brought me some lotus cake, but it was crushed by Prince Yin."
The emperor asked again: "Didn't you have lunch? Why are you hungry?"
Chu Lingfeng said: "I did not have lunch because I was punished to kneel."
The emperor frowned, "Kneel down? Why kneel down?"
Chu Lingfeng hesitated for a while, but finally told the truth: "Prince Yin disdains my teachings, and if he is unhappy, he will punish me by making me kneel."
The emperor looked at Yin'er and his voice deepened: "Yin'er, you are so young and you are not a good person. Why are you being punished to kneel? He is the prince of Chu after all. You don't treat him with courtesy. Where have you learned the rules of etiquette?"
Yin'er said aggrievedly: "Your Majesty, Sun'er doesn't want this study partner. He is disobedient. Sun'er wants to be obedient."
Susu hugged the emperor and said in a baby voice, "Grandpa, I need a pot and a small pot."
If the precious granddaughter wants it, the emperor will certainly give it to her. But how dare Yin'er, this bastard, bully Susu? He is tired of living.
"You are so shameless, but you still don't want it? From today on, Prince Chu will be the companion of the Emperor's grandson."
Susu held the emperor's face in her hands and smacked him, "Grandpa Xie Xie."
The emperor, who was kissed by his precious granddaughter, was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.
Chu Lingfeng did not feel relieved when he heard this. Instead, he became more worried. Serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. Life in the East Palace may not be any better than before.
"I, your humble servant, thank you for your great grace."
The emperor glanced at Prince Chu, then looked at Yin'er, and ordered in a cold voice: "Yin'er has a violent heart and bullies his own sister. He will be punished to kneel for an hour and copy the Analects."
After saying this, the emperor carried Susu in his arms and walked towards the East Palace.
Chu Lingfeng stood up and glanced at Yin'er who was kneeling on the ground. After being bullied for so long, he felt a little happy. He retracted his gaze and followed him.
Susu saw Chu Lingfeng and struggled to get down, "Grandpa, we have to get down."
The emperor always granted his precious granddaughter's request. Upon hearing this, he put her down.
Susu came to Chu Lingfeng and reached out to hold his hand, "Go home with Xiao Guoguo."
Chu Lingfeng saw the little princess' sweet smile and was reluctant to let go. However, it was not right, so he raised his head to look at the emperor and subconsciously wanted to take his hand back.
Seeing that the emperor did not say anything but just smiled faintly, and that smile was directed at the little princess, he suddenly stopped trying to pull back his hand and let the little princess hold her.
It is said in the palace that the little princess is the emperor's favorite and is spoiled to an outrageous degree. But when I saw her today, she is even more spoiled than the rumors said.
Susu happily took the small pot home, but when she reached the fork in the road, she suddenly stopped and stared at the two roads in a daze.
Chu Lingfeng also stopped and looked at the little princess in confusion, but did not ask any questions.
Xiaobai on the side stopped in tacit understanding.
The emperor walked slowly behind, watching Susu holding Prince Chu's hand. Why did he have the illusion that his treasure was being snatched away?
Until he saw his precious granddaughter suddenly stop, he took two steps forward and looked down at Susu, "Baby, why did you stop?"
Susu looked at the two roads and forgot which one she took when she came here. In the past, Xuetuan always led the way in front of her, but now that there was no one to lead the way, she didn't know which way to go.
"Grandpa, the nest is lost."
The emperor laughed when he heard this, "Do you want me to hold you, Grandpa?"
Susu let go of Chu Lingfeng's hand and reached out for a hug, "Grandpa, hold the baby."
The emperor was delighted to hear this. He picked up Susu and when they reached the fork in the road, he turned right and continued walking.
Chu Lingfeng looked at his hand, raised his head and looked at Susu in the emperor's arms, smiling very happily.
When Concubine Yun learned that her precious grandson was punished to kneel, she trotted to the garden beside the Taiye Lake. From a distance, she saw Yin'er kneeling there and was immediately heartbroken.
She ran over, hugged Yin'er, and looked at her precious grandson with heartache, "Yin'er."
When Yin'er saw his grandmother coming, he felt like he had found a supporter. He started crying aggrievedly, "Grandma, Yin'er's legs hurt. Yin'er doesn't want to kneel."
Concubine Yun felt sorry for her grandson, but she dared not disobey the emperor's order. She raised her head and looked at Eunuch Li, "Eunuch Li, what's going on?"
"Noble Consort Yun, Crown Prince Yin needs to change his temper. Although Crown Prince Chu is a study companion, he is also the eldest son of King Chu Nan. How can you treat Crown Prince Chu with such contempt? Where is the face of the royal family?"
"More importantly, Prince Yin actually bullied the Crown Prince's daughter. The Crown Prince's daughter is the apple of the Emperor's eye. The Emperor feels distressed when she frowns. Prince Yin is still a brother, how could he bully his own sister?"
Eunuch Li's tone turned unkind at the end. "The Crown Prince's daughter cried so sadly. The Emperor saw it and felt so distressed. Forcing her to kneel down and copy the Analects was already a light punishment."
Being forced to kneel for an hour, copying the Analects is considered a light punishment?
Concubine Yun just felt sorry for Yin'er when she heard it, and did not realize that her grandson had done anything wrong. She just felt unlucky to be seen by the emperor with his own eyes.

Shen Chuwei searched the entire East Palace but couldn't find Susu, so she guessed that she must have sneaked out of the East Palace.
Just as she was about to go out to look for her, she saw the emperor coming back with Susu in his arms, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Sure enough, he ran away.
She stepped forward and bowed, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you, Father. May you be blessed with good health."
"Get up." The emperor said as he walked in holding Susu.
Just as Shen Chuwei was about to follow, she discovered that there was a young man following behind the emperor. He was handsome and had a cool temperament.
Children nowadays are amazing, they are so pretty at such a young age~
Chu Lingfeng took two steps forward and bowed, "I pay my respects to the Crown Princess."
The sudden greeting made Shen Chu stunned for a moment. He was somewhat curious about who the young man in front of him was.
