"emperor?"
Seeing that the emperor hadn't given an answer for a long time, Shen Mingyue couldn't help but ask again: "Can I raise the orphan of the General Zhenbei?"
At this point, the emperor finally came to his senses and said, "Mingyue, thank you for your concern."
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Long live the Emperor."
Shen Mingyue quickly knelt down to express her gratitude.
Qiuju and Qiuhe also knelt down again.
The emperor said lovingly, "There are no outsiders here, so you don't have to be so polite to me. The ground is cold, get up quickly."
As he said this, he wanted to go forward to support her, but because he was holding Su Qiqi in his arms, it was a little inconvenient for a while.
So, he could only wink at the eunuch waiting on the side and said, "Zhao Xu."
Zhao Xu understood immediately and hurriedly bent over to help Shen Mingyue: "Your Majesty, please don't kneel anymore. The Emperor feels bad for you."
Shen Mingyue pursed her lips and said nothing.
Su Qiqi sneered disdainfully.
[Wow, you know how to coax your wife now? Oh, if I remember correctly, you had a quarrel with the imperial concubine two days ago and then went into a cold war!]
Concubine Jing specifically hired someone to fabricate lies in front of you to sow discord, and you actually suspected your own wife based on just a few casual words. How could there be an emperor as stupid as you?
[Alas, cherish your wife! Abusing your wife is fun for a while, but chasing her is a nightmare!]
[It won't be long before your beloved Shen Mingyue is framed and tragically dies in the cold palace. By then, you won't even have time to cry.]
"What?" The emperor's eyes turned slightly cold, and there was obviously anger in them.
He looked at Su Qiqi in his arms, wishing he could immediately force Su Qiqi to tell him everything she knew.
"W-What happened?"
Shen Mingyue asked anxiously, looking at Su Qiqi in the emperor's arms from time to time.
The emperor continued to stare at Su Qiqi without saying a word.
"Oh my god! Why are you staring at me? It's scary!"
"You can't hear what I'm saying, can you? I'm talking about level 10 baby talk, 'Aba Aba,' can you understand me?"
[If you understand, just blink, okay?]
“…”
The emperor remained unmoved and at the same time, managed not to blink.
One second, two seconds, three seconds...
After waiting for a long time, the emperor didn't even blink.
Just when Su Qiqi was feeling extremely anxious, the emperor suddenly raised the corners of his mouth and smiled gently.
"I like this child. Pass on my decree to confer the title of Princess Chaoyang on Su Qiqi, the orphan of General Zhenbei. From now on, she will be my own daughter."
"ah?"
Shen Mingyue was a little surprised.
Generally speaking, princesses would be given titles before they got married or after they reached the age of 15.
Su Qiqi, how could she be treated like this?!
Zhao Xu, standing by, smiled flatteringly and said, "Your Majesty is wise. The morning sun is everywhere, and the light of dawn is everywhere. The word 'chaoyang' implies vitality and awakening of all things. This shows the Majesty's love and expectations for the princess."
The emperor nodded and said meaningfully, "Yes, I have high hopes for this child."
Hearing this, Shen Mingyue felt happy and finally a smile appeared on her face.
She bent her knees slightly and saluted the emperor: "I thank the emperor on behalf of Princess Chaoyang."
[What the hell? The emperor adopted me as his own daughter and placed high hopes on me? There's no such thing in the book!]
[Is it because I'm cute and well-behaved? Or is it because the emperor wants to use this to tell the world that he doesn't mistreat his loyal subjects?]
[Strange, your heart is hard to predict. Anyway, he definitely didn't understand my baby talk! Otherwise, I would have been beheaded long ago!]
Su Qiqi muttered to herself.
After reaching the conclusion, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Little did she know that the emperor had already heard everything she was thinking.
The little girl is clever, innocent and cute.
It’s better to be patient and pretend, otherwise it will not be worth it if you scare her.
This is the noble person who can help him change his fate!
The little guy seemed to know what was going to happen to all of them in the future.
Therefore, he had to proceed step by step, carefully observe the little guy's thoughts, and then make arrangements quietly to avoid various crises.
Shen Mingyue cannot die, the country cannot be taken away, and he must not become a tyrant!
//
Perhaps because of Su Qiqi, the relationship between the emperor and Shen Mingyue was eased.
The two of them teased Su Qiqi together and had dinner together.
At the dinner table, the emperor picked up some food for Shen Mingyue and served her soup.
Su Qiqi was lying in the cradle beside her, drooling and wailing in greed.
If I am guilty, please let the law punish me! Instead of letting me watch others eat delicious food while I can only watch them show their affection and then be fed dog food!
If I am guilty, please let morality condemn me! Instead of letting me cry out to heaven and earth in vain. I am still a young flower, I shouldn't be subjected to this kind of torture...
[I'm so hungry! I want to eat some pig's trotters! I want to eat some skewers!]
Su Qiqi wailed incessantly.
Qiu He walked in with a tray.
"My Lady, as you instructed, I have prepared warm milk for the princess."
After saying that, she put the tray on the table and tactfully retreated.
Shen Mingyue picked up the silver needle on the table and placed it in the bowl of warm milk.
She observed carefully, and only after making sure that the silver needle had not changed color did she pick up the milk and walk over to Su Qiqi.
"Mingyue, let the servants feed you. You haven't eaten much." said the emperor.
Shen Mingyue shook her head: "I'm not hungry."
As soon as she finished speaking, she scooped up the warm milk with a spoon and brought it to her lips to test the temperature.
After confirming that it was not hot, she fed the spoonful of warm milk to Su Qiqi's mouth.
