Yuan Yao glanced behind the emperor and saw only a group of kneeling eunuchs and Li Deshan.
At this time, the Ninth Prince should be holding court in the Haoran Hall.
This emperor! While others handle state affairs for him, he comes to Qianhua Palace to watch the spectacle!
Yuan Yao mustered all her strength and said in a childish voice, "Your Majesty, are you here to see Father? Father is still in Haoran Palace!"
The emperor took a few steps into the room, looked around, and said in a hoarse voice, "What? I can't come here if I don't look for your father? The entire palace belongs to me, and I can go wherever I want!"
Yuan Yao pursed her lips.
She thought to herself: Try saying that to His Majesty the Ninth Prince.
However, being such a little girl, she decided not to confront the emperor head-on...
Yuan Yao said obediently, "In that case, Your Majesty, please feel free to wander around, or, Yao'er can show you around."
"Hmph! Who needs you to bring me!" the emperor sneered. "I know every nook and cranny of Qianhua Palace better than you do!"
Yuan Yao: "..."
Your Majesty, are you a living, breathing contrarian?
He had such a smug attitude, completely lacking the demeanor of an adult or an emperor!
Yuan Yao lifted her skirt and said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, please feel free to stroll around. I'll go to the kitchen and have them prepare tea and snacks for Your Majesty."
After speaking, she took short strides and ran very fast.
However, she hadn't run two steps when the emperor grabbed her by the collar, lifted her up, and said in a sinister tone, "Did I say you could leave?"
With both feet off the ground, Yuan Yao struggled desperately, but her toes couldn't touch the ground at all.
Ahhh!
This emperor is so annoying!
Yuan Yao's face turned red with anger: "Your Majesty, what exactly do you want to do?!"
I'm so angry I could die!
Bullying the weak is shameless!
The emperor glanced at the people outside, then looked at Yuan Yao, who was struggling in his arms, and said in a gloomy voice, "Yesterday, A Yuan took you out of the palace?"
"Yes!" Yuan Yao said in her sweet little voice, "Daddy's friend brought cherries back to the capital from a thousand miles away, and Daddy specially took me out to eat cherries!"
I'll make you so angry, I'll make you so jealous!
Stinking emperor!
The emperor tightened his grip on Yuan Yao's hand: "The cherries, were they specially found for you by A Yuan?"
“Yes!” Yuan Yao replied, “My father is so good to me! He loves me so much!”
"Smack..."
Yuan Yao fell heavily to the ground.
It hit his forehead with a loud "thud".
For a moment, Yuan Yao felt dizzy and disoriented, seeing stars.
What did the emperor just do to her?
The emperor threw her to the ground!
Throw her!
So annoying...
I really want to beat the emperor's head up!
No, no!
If she personally beats up the emperor, things might not end well.
This kind of thing should be left to the Ninth Prince.
Yuan Yao gritted her teeth in anger, suppressing her rage, and lay on the ground, crying out with all her might, "It hurts so much..."
The emperor never expected that he would accidentally drop her and she would start crying...
Isn't it said that children don't feel pain?
Looking at Yuan Yao, who was crying so hard, the emperor's face turned green, and he said in a hoarse voice, "You...you shut up!"
He glanced at his hands, which were trembling slightly.
Why did he make a move?
Yuan Yao cried even louder after being yelled at: "Waaah... Daddy, save me!"
You stinking emperor, you'll be ruined by your acting!
You dared to bully a child!
...
The Ninth Prince returned in a hurry.
Upon entering Qianhua Palace, one sees palace servants kneeling all the way from the palace gate to the wine cellar.
From afar, he could hear Yuan Yao crying.
With a sudden surge of energy, the Ninth Prince rushed into the wine cellar like a gust of wind.
Upon seeing the little figure on the ground, his murderous aura surged.
Yuan Yao, her face streaked with tears, looked up at him, her voice barely audible with grievance: "Father..."
"Yao'er!" The Ninth Prince bent down, scooped her up, held her in his arms, and patted her gently, coaxing her softly, "Don't cry, Daddy's back."
"Waaah, Father, it hurts..." Yuan Yao cried, turning her gaze to the Emperor.
The emperor clenched his fists, his face extremely grim.
I'll make you furious, you stinking emperor!
Yuan Yao took a sip, stopping her tears, and then started sobbing.
The old man's narrow eyes were filled with coldness as he asked in a chilling voice, "What are you doing here?"
The emperor loosened his fist, his hand unconsciously gripping his robe, his voice hoarse: "I... just wanted to take a walk."
"Is that so?" The Ninth Prince narrowed his eyes. "I told you, if the Emperor has nothing to do, don't get close to Yuan Yao! What, you've forgotten all about it in just two years?"
The emperor's hoarse voice held a hint of grievance and fear: "A-Yuan, are you... angry?"
The Ninth Prince did not answer, but continued, "Get out. From now on, do not set foot in Qianhua Palace again without my permission."
"A-Yuan..." The emperor's hands gripped his robes tightly, wrinkling them. "I'm sorry, I... I lost control. I didn't mean to hurt Yuan Yao..."
out of control?
Yuan Yao clutched the Ninth Prince's robes and looked at the Emperor in surprise.
What does it mean when he says it's out of control?
Could it be that the emperor couldn't control his emotions?
Is this... bipolar disorder?
At this moment, the Ninth Prince said to the person outside the door, "Someone, escort the Emperor back to Yong'an Palace!"
The emperor looked at the Ninth Prince with a blank and frightened expression, like a child who had done something wrong.
At this moment, Yuan Yao called out, "Father, wait a moment!"
The Ninth Prince looked down at her: "Is there anything that's bothering you?"
Yuan Yao slurped a sniffle and said aggrievedly, "Yao'er just bumped her head and got a bump, it's swollen and hurts a little."
The Ninth Prince frowned instantly, looking at the Emperor with an unfriendly expression.
At this moment, Yuan Yao tugged at his sleeve and said in a childish voice, "Father, even the Emperor knows he was wrong, so please don't blame him."
As long as the Emperor apologizes to Yao'er, Yao'er will forgive him..."
Upon hearing this, the emperor's expression immediately changed. His face darkened, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Yuan Yao, I am the emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom. Don't even think about making me apologize to you!"
This little girl is really strange.
Yuan Yao rolled her eyes inwardly and said in a childish voice, "Not apologize? Fine, I don't care!"
However, even though it was an accident, the Emperor still frightened Yao'er. The Emperor must compensate Yao'er for her emotional distress!
Compensation for emotional distress?
What utter bullshit!
The emperor clenched his fist and said in a hoarse voice, "I am the Emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom..."
Before he could finish speaking, he looked at the Ninth Prince's expressionless face and awkwardly stopped.
That's all.
He made the mistake first...
We can deal with Yuan Yao later.
The emperor summoned Li Deshan and said, "Go to the national treasury and pick out a few interesting little trinkets for Princess Yuanyao."
A little gadget?
Wow! You think you can just send her a little something to get rid of her?
Yuan Yao tugged at the Ninth Prince's robe and asked in a childish voice, "Daddy, I've never seen gold before! What does gold look like? Is it pretty?"
emperor:"……"
The emperor's face was gloomy, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Go, fetch ten ingots of gold and send them to Princess Yuan Yao. Also, fetch another thousand taels of silver and send them here."
Besides gold, they also gave silver?
I made a profit!
She was worried because she didn't have the capital to start a business!
Just by dropping it, you can make so much money – you've hit the jackpot!
It's so much fun to extort money from people!!
Yuan Yao stepped down from the Emperor's arms, her headache gone. She wiped away her tears and smiled sweetly and obediently: "Your Majesty, would you like some cherries? Would you like to try some milk? You can eat desserts, right? Yao'er will go and bring you the tiger cubs so you can pet them..."
