Eunuch An stepped aside and said to Emperor Xuande: "The emperor is here, come and see your little girl."
The Zhao family was shocked and quickly knelt down to pay their respects. Zhao Letong did not kneel down, but blinked at him. This is the emperor.
"Tongtong, kneel down and pay homage to the emperor. Please forgive me. I am still young and do not know the etiquette. I have offended the emperor."
"It's okay. I heard from the Supervisor that this little girl is quite something. She won't have to kneel down to me anymore."
The Supervisors did not need to kneel down either. They were all people who were above the worldly world, and Emperor Xuande had to show them some courtesy.
There was another person who was very nervous, that was Xiao Shanjian. Oh my God, why did the emperor grandfather come in person?
"Your Majesty, please take a seat. The food in my house is simple and I am sorry for neglecting Your Majesty."
"Eat something casually. I want to try what kind of food your family usually serves."
"It's your pleasure."
There were no particularly expensive dishes, just home-cooked meals. Zhao Biao didn't like luxury, nor could he afford it. There were too many things to spend, and he had always been a poor man.
The kitchen sent a few more dishes for the emperor to eat first. Fortunately, they tasted good. This was because Zhao Letong had a picky palate, so Zhao Biao specially invited two chefs. If it were the previous meals, they would only be of edible quality.
"Well, it's okay. Let's do it. Zhao Aiqing, you gave birth to a good daughter. My little daughter is older than her, but she doesn't seem as sensible as her."
Zhao Biao said modestly: "She looks well-behaved, but she is actually very naughty. I can't control her. There is nothing I can do. She is not as filial and sensible as the princess."
"You have so many children and grandchildren. I envy you. Come and see them."
Everything else was fine, but when it came to Xiao Shanjian, Zhao Biao became nervous. Oh no, how could he forget about him?
Emperor Xuande thought the child looked familiar. Why did he look a bit like his eldest grandson?
Xiao Shanjian gritted his teeth and saluted: "Greetings to the Emperor."
"What's your name? You look like my eldest grandson to me."
Eunuch An was surprised: "Isn't this the eldest grandson's?"
Xiao Shanjian knelt down directly: "Royal Grandfather."
Zhao Biao also knelt down: "Your Majesty, please have mercy and listen to my explanation."
"It's okay. Take your time to think about it. Xiao Letong, tell me what happened?"
Zhao Letong spoke frankly, "You're talking about him. I picked it up when I was out playing. He didn't want to go back to the palace, so he stayed at my house.
Your Majesty, please stop scaring me. Xiaoshan is my friend, and my father doesn't know about it. Didn't you sneak out to play too? "
