Yuan Yao thought to herself, as long as he gives her money, he'll be her God of Wealth!
The God of Wealth must be treated with utmost respect!
The cherries she had kept for herself were all served to the emperor, along with hot milk and various milk-based desserts, which were laid out on a table in front of him.
Yuan Yao said in a childish voice, "Your Majesty, please try it!"
The emperor glanced at the Ninth Prince.
The Ninth Prince's face was cold and indifferent, his gaze fixed on Xiao Yuanyao.
The emperor picked up the jade cup containing milk with disdain, took a sip, and then another.
Mmm, it tastes good.
He then picked up a custard bun shaped like a little tiger's head and took a bite.
This is good.
After the emperor had tasted all the desserts, Yuan Yao asked with a smile, "Your Majesty, are they delicious?"
Seeing her smile so sweetly and ingratiatingly, she was even sweeter than a custard bun...
Realizing this idea, the emperor's face immediately darkened. He wiped his hands with a handkerchief and said in a hoarse, unpleasant voice, "That's it."
That's it?
The way he said those words was exactly like the day Huaiyao first came to Qianhua Palace.
She clearly likes everything, but pretends to be indifferent to everything...
So, Huaiyao's personality was inherited from the emperor!
Yuan Yao wasn't annoyed and continued with a smile, "Since Your Majesty doesn't like it, then Yao'er will have all of these removed. Your Majesty can have some tea and cherries."
The emperor immediately pointed at her: "You..."
At this moment, the Ninth Prince spoke up: "Your Majesty, it's time to return to Yong'an Palace."
Upon hearing this, the emperor withdrew his hand, his face showing grievance: "It's rare for me to come to Qianhua Palace, can't I stay a little longer?"
An adult, but with the appearance of a child.
Yuan Yao thought to herself: So ugly...
This emperor really needs to take care of himself!
She was slightly overweight, had poor skin, large eye bags, and dark circles under her eyes, making her look particularly listless and gloomy to outsiders.
He clearly has a good foundation, so why did he ruin himself like this?
Take good care of yourself, get a better figure, better skin, get enough sleep and rest, get rid of eye bags and dark circles, wouldn't it be nice to be a handsome guy?
Isn't it good?
This is absolutely intolerable!
Thinking it over, Yuan Yao rolled up her sleeves and said to the Ninth Prince, "Father, let the Emperor stay a little longer! Yao'er will go and fetch the tiger cubs! Wait for me!"
She lifted the hem of her skirt and ran very fast with her short legs.
In the blink of an eye, they disappeared at the entrance of the main hall.
The atmosphere inside the hall instantly turned cold.
The Ninth Prince sat languidly in a soft chair, gently waving a folding fan. His voice was gentle, but his tone was incredibly cold: "Was what happened just now truly just an accident?"
The emperor quickly stood up and said anxiously, "A-Yuan, believe me, I really didn't mean to hurt her today, you must believe me..."
As he spoke, he reached out to tug at the sleeve of the Ninth Prince.
With a wave of his fan, the Emperor's hand was hit by a blast of cold air, and the Emperor staggered backward.
The Ninth Prince narrowed his long eyes and coldly looked at the Emperor: "If you dare to hurt Xiao Yao'er again, I will take her away!"
I've been cleaning up the mess in the Great Qi Kingdom for over a decade!
You're over thirty, yet still so incompetent. In my opinion, the Great Qi should be destroyed as soon as possible!
"A-Yuan..." the emperor cried out in anguish, ignoring being pushed away, and threw himself at the Ninth Prince's feet once more: "A-Yuan, you promised your sister that you would not leave me, that you would stay with me for the rest of your life!"
You promised your sister you'd look after me and Daqi...
From a young age, you protected my sister and me. Now that my sister is gone, you have to protect me for the rest of your life!
He clung tightly to the corner of the Ninth Prince's robe, like a drowning child grasping at a straw, bewildered and helpless, yet unwilling to let go.
The Ninth Prince coldly waved the Emperor's hand away: "Get up first."
"I won't get up!" After letting go, the emperor grabbed his sleeve again, just like when he was bullied as a child: "A-Yuan, you swore to your sister that you wouldn't leave, don't you remember?"
He kept calling her "sister," and the Ninth Prince's face grew colder with each passing word: "Get up!"
The emperor flinched and quickly released his grip.
Yuan Yao was outside the door when he heard the Ninth Prince's reprimand.
As soon as she entered the room, she saw the emperor kneeling at the feet of the Ninth Prince.
Yuan Yao: "???"
What's going on?
Did she come back at the wrong time?
"Aww..." the little dumpling in my arms cried out.
At this moment, the Ninth Prince and the Emperor both looked towards the door.
Yuan Yao hugged Tangyuan, looking completely innocent: "Daddy, Yao'er just arrived, Yao'er didn't see anything."
"Come here." The Ninth Prince beckoned to her.
Looking at the emperor on the ground, Yuan Yao hesitated for a moment before walking to the side of the Ninth Prince.
Tangyuan has gained a little weight these past few days, making it a bit difficult for her to hold him.
After walking halfway, Yuan Yao put the glutinous rice balls down.
The little tiger cub immediately raised its tail and roared upon seeing the emperor.
It looks fierce.
The emperor was already furious that Yuan Yao had caught him in this state, but he dared not vent his anger on Yuan Yao. So, he stood up and looked at Tang Yuan with a gloomy expression: "Insolence! I am the emperor!"
Perhaps because his murderous aura was too obvious, Tangyuan immediately bared his teeth and hid behind Yuan Yao.
Yuan Yao bent down and scooped up the glutinous rice ball: "Glutinous rice ball, this is the Emperor, you can't be mean to the Emperor!"
"Ouch..." Tangyuan cried out in frustration.
Yuan Yao walked to the emperor's side and handed him the glutinous rice ball, saying, "Your Majesty, feel it. The glutinous rice ball won't bite you."
"Tangyuan?" The emperor said in a hoarse voice, "A mighty tiger, given such a name, it's an insult to it."
Yuan Yao thought to himself, "You, the emperor, are you not disgracing the title of 'emperor' by kneeling before the Ninth Prince?"
However, since the emperor had just given her money, Yuan Yao smiled and said, "Tangyuan is soft, round, and especially cute. Father also thinks this name sounds nice, right, Father?"
As she spoke, she looked at the Ninth Prince.
The Ninth Prince waved his folding fan and said, "Tangyuan, come here."
Immediately, Tangyuan got down from Yuan Yao's arms, walked gracefully to the feet of the Ninth Prince, and rolled around on the spot.
The emperor watched with envy, but he could also tell that the tiger cub didn't like him.
At this moment, the Ninth Prince glanced at him and lightly patted Tangyuan's belly with his fan: "Go away."
"Aww..." Tangyuan obediently rolled over and stood up, raising its icy blue eyes to glance at the emperor before taking small steps to his side and looking up: "Aww..."
It's like a commanding king: Hold me.
The emperor paused for a moment, then bent down and carefully picked up the tiger cub.
Although the tiger cub was young, it displayed the imposing manner of a fierce tiger, forbidding him to touch its head or belly. Giving it a hug was considered a favor.
The emperor's nose tingled, and he said in a hoarse voice, "When I was a child, the winters in the Cold Palace were very cold. One year, for some reason, a furry little white dog crawled in."
My sister and I really wanted to keep it, but after only a few days, you got angry, A-Yuan, and threw it away..."
His voice was hoarse and tinged with grievance.
Wow, there's some gossip going on!
Yuan Yao immediately perked up her ears.
