"Father, what crime have I committed?"
Su Lan's face was full of grievance, and there were even tears in her eyes.
He thought he would receive some reward on this trip, but he did not expect to endure his father's wrath.
Could it be that he secretly went to a brothel last night and was discovered by someone?
"You still don't know your guilt? Ha, then continue to kneel here until you figure it out!"
Emperor Jian'an sneered, then continued to hold Su Lili in his arms to read the memorials. Su Lan could only kneel obediently until his knees became numb.
Just when she was about to take a nap, the gavel made a loud noise, scaring Su Lan awake again.
After a while, Su Lan finally mustered up the courage and spoke weakly,
"Father, I should never, ever go to that brothel last night... But, it was the son of the Minister of Revenue who instigated me, and I just couldn't resist the temptation!"
What? There is such a thing?
...
...
Emperor Jian'an looked up from the pile of memorials, and the anger in his eyes grew more and more intense.
Great, his eldest son, at such a young age, has learned to visit brothels!
Originally, he invited Su Lan here just to give him a warning and to make an act in the eyes of Hu Yancuo's party. After all, the son of destiny cannot bear any grievances, and then he would give his son some compensation.
I didn’t expect... Damn it, so damn it!
"Father, I was wrong. I will never visit a brothel again. Please understand me, Father!"
Su Lan howled more and more sadly, with tears falling continuously, which made Emperor Jian'an frown and look disgusted.
Look, look, the royal family has been disgraced by this fool!
The imperial historian, Lord Xue, is still sitting behind the curtain, writing furiously. This, this will be infamous for eternity.
He had originally planned to make Su Lan the crown prince, but now it seems that he has to think carefully about it...
[Alas, Su Lan was destined to be the crown prince, but he likes to hang out with playboys the most, doing all kinds of evil things all day long, and he likes to bully the little protons the most when he is free. ]
[The little proton later turned evil and took revenge, but it was Su Lan who contributed to it. And Su Lan was also the one who died the most miserably among all the princes. Tsk tsk, it's really a case of evil being rewarded with evil! ]
In Emperor Jian'an's arms, Su Lili rubbed her chin thoughtfully, looking at Su Lan with deep sympathy.
[Alas, my brother can only live well if he changes his temper and stops doing evil... Father, you can't let your son run wild any longer! ]
Yes, I failed in my duty, but it is not too late to mend the situation. At least no big mistake has been made yet!
"Since you know you are wrong, you must make amends. Write a 300-word letter of repentance, detailing your regret for visiting a brothel, and apologize to Hu Yancuo in person. You must be sincere. If the letter of repentance is written by someone else, I will impose a severe punishment."
"Yes, I understand. I will definitely complete the task assigned by my father."
Su Lan knelt down and kowtowed. Although she was resentful, she also understood that at this moment, no matter how great the injustice was, she had to endure it.
But...soon, Su Lan sensed something was wrong and suddenly raised his head.
"Father, why should I go to that little bastard's house to apologize? Is he worthy?"
In the past, didn’t we allow ourselves to be beaten and scolded at will, and did our father, the emperor, and our mother condone it?
"You dare to disobey my order? Just do whatever I tell you to do, don't ask so many questions!"
Emperor Jian'an's eyes suddenly became fierce, and Su Lan shivered with fear. Then, she finally noticed that there was a little baby in his arms.
He is full of joy, with red lips and white teeth, just like the little boy sitting under the seat of Guanyin.
Their eyes met and Su Lili made a naughty face, which made Su Lan very angry.
However, he did not dare to say anything more. He could only suppress his jealousy, kowtowed, and stumbled away.
[Alas, I hope Su Lan can reform himself. Father is really smart. He dealt with his son in a swift and decisive manner. He is a good and competent father! ]
Su Lili twisted her butt and gave Emperor Jian'an a thumbs up.
Emperor Jian'an couldn't help but feel proud in his heart. Look, look, the little god is praising him again!
After reviewing the memorials for a while, Su Lili felt a little hungry. She picked up the snacks on the table and started to eat them, but she couldn't chew them as she had no teeth.
[Wow, I'm so hungry. I'm almost starving to death. Father, don't you have any food that children can eat? ]
[Ah, I really want to go back to Weirui Palace, I really want to hug my sweet and soft mother and have a good sleep! ]
Emperor Jian'an stopped writing and felt quite unhappy. Before he could give any order, the eunuch who was delivering the message suddenly arrived late.
He came before the imperial carriage and knelt on the ground swiftly.
"Your Majesty, the Consort Xian has arrived and she said she came to pick up the little princess!"
[Okay, okay, my mother is finally here. I can finally go back to Wei Rui Palace. I am so happy! ]
Su Lili twisted around happily, making babbling sounds from her mouth.
Seeing her heartless little appearance, Emperor Jian'an's temper improved little by little, and he rubbed his daughter's round little head with his big hand.
"Okay, just follow your mother, but don't get too tired."
The virtuous concubine came and went, Su Lili also disappeared. Emperor Jian'an felt empty in his arms and felt a little lost for no reason.
He put down his pen, looked at Wang Yun beside him, and said calmly,
"Tell the imperial kitchen to do their best to research snacks suitable for babies. If the little princess likes them, she will be rewarded handsomely."
"Yes, I understand!"
After receiving the order, Wang Yun immediately responded in a repetitive voice, and was full of awe for the newborn princess.
It is the first time in history that His Majesty has favored me so much. I must serve him well. I will have to rely on the little princess’s protection in the future!
As the orders were passed down layer by layer, Emperor Jian'an felt a little tired. He turned over Concubine Xiao Shufei's nameplate and then fell into a drowsy doze.
Over there, Su Lili was quickly carried back to Weirui Palace. After eating her fill of milk and bird's nest soup, she lay comfortably in the newly made cradle.
The cradle is made of rosewood, and flowers, birds, insects and fish are carefully outlined with gold powder. Various precious jewels are inlaid into various patterns at no cost, which is gorgeous and magnificent.
[Hehe, my grandparents are really generous. I love this cradle so much. It's more comfortable than the big soft bed in heaven! ]
[I just don’t know when I can meet more relatives. I can’t wait any longer! ]
Looking at Su Lili's waving little hands and chubby little face, Concubine Xian's heart was almost melted by her cuteness.
At this moment, Queen Yuyao also arrived late. Before Concubine Xian could salute, she just supported Concubine Xian's elbow.
"Huilan, there's no need to be so polite. I'm here for the little princess's full-moon banquet..."
Full Moon Banquet? Su Lili counted with her fingers, and her expression suddenly changed.
I’m afraid something will happen at this full moon banquet!
