"Your Majesty, as you predicted, the Imperial Concubine has become impatient and secretly sent a letter back home via a palace maid."
"I'm afraid the Wen family will make a move in the next few days." Changying reported back to the secret guards in detail.
Helian Nie did not answer. As he slightly raised his hand, the wine went down his throat, and his thin, crimson lips were stained with a hint of wine, making him look exceptionally dangerous and alluring.
"Father~ Emperor~!"
A sweet, soft voice drifted in from outside the hot spring pool, startling both people inside.
Helian Nie frowned slightly. Ugly thing? Didn't he leave the palace with Nanrong Jinghua? How come he's in his Wolong Palace?
He glanced up at Changying, who snapped out of his daze and understood. "I'll go see what's going on right away."
Outside the hot spring pool, Helian Si, a tiny little boy, held up a lush green lotus leaf in his short, white hands, covering his fluffy little head.
Because Helian Si was wearing a pink ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress) today, and had a green lotus leaf on his head, he looked just like a little lotus fairy emerging from a lotus pond.
Yue'er stood behind Helian Si with her head slightly lowered, holding a finely crafted wooden box bearing the Tangji Fang logo.
Lately, the Emperor has been paying extra attention to the little princess, and since she is only five years old, the guards at Wolong Palace have not done much to stop her.
But now, seeing the little princess calling out to the hot spring in her tiny, babyish voice, the guards standing by the hot spring couldn't help but twitch at the corners of their mouths.
A gentle breeze blew by, and the figure of the eagle appeared silently at the entrance of the hot spring pool, causing the guards to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Your subordinate greets the little princess." Changying glanced coldly at the guards before bowing and paying respects to Helian Si.
"Hey, big brother, where's Father?" Helian Si stood on tiptoe, his little head peering into the hot spring pool.
"His Majesty, he..."
"What business do you have with me?" A chilling voice, laced with hostility, rang out from behind Changying.
Helian Si's little eyes lit up, and he stuffed the lush green lotus leaf he was holding into the long eagle's palm.
With her two short legs, the little girl ran excitedly toward the figure in the crimson dragon robe who had entered.
On her rosy little face, her bright, grape-like eyes sparkled, and she called out in a sweet, soft voice,
"Father Emperor, Father Emperor, it's Sisi! Sisi has come to bring you candy again!"
The gatekeepers tried to stop them, but Changying stopped them with a look. At this moment, Helian Si was just a tiny little pink dumpling.
He had already rushed to Helian Nie's side, and with a "splat", he stretched out his short arms and hugged Helian Nie's leg, the crimson dragon robe.
Helian Nie's brow twitched when she pounced on him, and he felt a little helpless, but he still naturally bent down and picked up the little Helian Si.
"Smack~!" Without any hesitation, Sisi planted a kiss on Helian Nie's handsome face. Oh, did my little one just finish bathing? He smells so good!
"Hiss..." The guards at the gate gasped inwardly at the sight. The little princess really was...
Helian Nie raised an eyebrow, his long, slender fingers giving the little girl's rosy cheeks a rather unceremoniously pinch.
"You're quite impolite."
They just decide to get married like that; this ugly thing is really becoming more and more lawless.
