Chapter 347: Mouth for Lu Chaochao
Mingguang Hall.
"This is the Minguang Palace, where my royal grandfather held court. Now that my grandfather is old, my mother is governing together with him." He looked at Xu Shiyun with a hidden look in his eyes.
"All the civil and military officials are already waiting in front of the palace. Let's go see the Emperor first."
Outside the Mingguang Hall, Xie Jingxi and Rong Che left their swords outside the hall.
No weapons are allowed when entering the palace.
"Princess Zhaoyang of Beizhao is here to see you."
"The Northern Zhao State Guardian General is here to see you."
"The King of Bei Zhaojingxi is here to see you."
"I am here to see Master Lu of Beizhao."
The long list of names surprised the ministers.
Nan Mubai only sent a message back to the Southern Kingdom to find the princess, but did not tell the ministers the details.
"Grandfather, Mu Bai has fulfilled his mission and found my aunt, so that she can be reunited with your family." Nan Mubai stepped forward and bowed deeply.
The old emperor sitting high on the dragon throne has gray hair but his eyes are still sharp.
Even at his old age, his facial features still reveal the handsomeness of his youth.
Everyone greeted him in turn. Lu Chaochao glanced at the old emperor and stood there without moving.
Anyway, she is small and no one cares about her at the moment.
"Good, good!" the old emperor clapped his hands and praised.
He stood up, and Nan Fengyu beside him stood up and supported him.
"Father, let me help you." Nan Fengyu said in a low voice.
She helped the old emperor walk down the stairs step by step. The old emperor trembled and nodded continuously as he looked at Xu Shiyun.
"Like, like, so much like..."
"Like your mother, very much like her."
"My dear child, have you ever seen your mother? She has been looking for you for many years and has been working hard for you all her life." The old emperor sighed softly, showing his love for his daughter.
"I've seen him just now." Xu Shiyun whispered, her brows slightly lowered, not daring to look up.
I'm afraid I can't hide my hatred.
The grace of saving a life was exchanged for the disaster of exterminating the whole family. How cruel!
The old emperor personally helped her up and said, "You have been a source of worry for my father for many years. I have been missing you for so long that I have become ill. Now that I have found you, I have finally put my father's worries to rest. Even if I die, I can finally close my eyes."
"It was my father's fault that I lost you unintentionally back then." The old emperor had tears in his eyes.
Nan Fengyu could not help but kneel at the emperor's feet: "Father, this is not your fault. You are not to blame for all this. You have done enough in the past 36 years, praying for the safety of mother and daughter every day."
Lu Chaochao rolled her eyes when she heard this.
"Yes, it's your fault. Your wife is disabled, your daughter is lost, and even your entire village has been wiped out. How did you become the emperor?" Lu Chaochao's childish voice rang out, and he asked loudly in front of all the civil and military officials in the court.
Everyone was so frightened that their hearts skipped a beat, and all the civil and military officials in the court knelt on the ground.
I dare not breathe.
After just a couple of sneak glances, I realized there was a short man standing next to Xu Shiyun.
She looks about three years old, with a round and clever face and a short head of hair.
The round eyes rolled around.
Nan Fengyu's heart suddenly rose: "How dare you talk to His Majesty? You have no respect for your elders, and you don't distinguish between the superior and the inferior. Things that come out of small places are not worthy of being on the stage!"
"He is the emperor, but he can't protect his wife and daughter. Isn't that funny?"
"Thirty-six years have passed. Have you found the person who was chasing my grandmother? Have you caught the mastermind who set fire to the village? You are the emperor, are you so useless?"
"Not as good as my father, the Emperor of Bei Zhao."
"Who are you? Oh, you are Princess Nan Fengyu? You are a princess, and I am also a princess. What right do you have to yell at me?"
"You are so angry, did you do it? That's right, only the closest relatives will let the emperor protect them." The little guy touched the back of his head naively.
It seemed as if he could not see the solemnity of the atmosphere, as if he could not see the anger gathering in the emperor's eyes.
"Oh, Grandfather Huang, Aunt Fengyu, you won't be angry, right?"
"Chao Chao is only three years old and can't speak. Children speak without restraint. You won't blame Chao Chao, right?" The little guy's tears welled up and he looked at the old emperor with tears streaming down his face.
The sound of the little princess sobbing could be heard in Mingguang Palace.
Everyone gasped.
"Hiss..." You are so brave to say that! !
Just one encounter and your childish words have already torn off my fig leaf.
The problem is, looking at the group of people from Bei Zhao, their faces are also filled with confusion and shock.
It was as if she was really performing on the spot.
The old emperor almost gritted his teeth and spoke word by word: "Don't blame me, don't blame me. My grandfather is so happy that Zhaoyang has returned home. How can my grandfather bear to blame me?"
"Feng Yu, right?"
Nan Fengyu was at a disadvantage, clenched her fists, and replied in a low voice: "Yes, Chaochao is young and ignorant, auntie won't mind."
The old emperor added: "I am ashamed of you and your daughter."
"Back then, I was saved by the Ning family, and Taoyuan Village also helped me a lot."
"After returning to the palace, I fell into a coma, which allowed the thieves to attack Taoyuan Village and the Ning family."
Lu Chaochao looked at him with burning eyes: "Who is that thief?"
Xu Shiyun and others: Chaochao, you are really our mouthpiece!
You can say everything that adults are not easy to say!
The old emperor sighed softly, "This is the root of evil I left behind. I made countless enemies back then, and I let Taoyuan Village and the Ning family protect me from this disaster."
"They are a group of evil people. When I was young and hot-tempered, I vowed to eradicate all injustice. I offended the evil people."
"After Feng Yu found me, I accidentally leaked the news, which led to the evil sect taking the opportunity to seek revenge. It also implicated Taoyuan Village."
"The people who leaked the news have all been killed, but the evil sect has not yet been completely eliminated."
[Evil ways, evil ways. You look like a group of evil people to me.] 】
[One day, I will capture all those evil people and confront them! 】
[Isn’t it because you can’t catch the evildoers?! 】
“Father, you have been hunting down evildoers all these years, which can be regarded as a little comfort to the mother and daughter.” Nan Fengyu sighed softly.
"I can never repay what I owe you and your daughter." The old emperor shook his head.
"You are Rong Che, right? You are very handsome... I have heard of your fame a long time ago." Who hasn't heard of Rong Che, the Beizhao God of War?
Even the old emperor was surprised.
His daughter, who was living away from home, was so lucky.
Although she was mistreated after marrying into the marquis's mansion, the three sons and one daughter she left behind were outstanding people.
Even her second husband was a general guarding the country.
It’s a pity... that I’m just a mortal.
At the same time, I felt relieved.
Nan Fengyu is the result of his years of hard work. She is his eldest daughter and his pride.
And what about Xu Shiyun?
Having been stranded since birth, I have no sense of belonging to the South and I am not close to it. Her maternal family offered no help, she herself was a mortal, and she married a mortal.
Directly cut off the summoning god’s bloodline.
Furthermore, the massacre of Taoyuan Village is always separated by a layer of hatred.
The old emperor must have gone mad to pass the throne to her.
But now that they have been recalled, we must always treat them equally to the outside world.
Accept the invocation ceremony together.
Lu Chaochao looked at the old emperor, opened her mouth, and the old emperor's eyelids twitched.
He really doesn't like this little granddaughter.
"What about your grandmother? You have prayed to heaven and earth and married her formally. How come your grandmother doesn't have a legitimate status?"
"Do you dislike her?"
The old emperor was a little annoyed, but he didn't show it on his face: "I wanted to bring her into the palace and give her a concubine, but she didn't want to."
"Of course she doesn't want to. They are married to each other in a proper way, and she saved the Southern Emperor. Why is she still a concubine? Isn't this repaying kindness with enmity?"
"Shouldn't she be the queen?" The little guy smiled innocently.
"Don't be angry, Grandfather. I was just asking casually."
The old emperor and Nan Fengyu could hardly hold on any longer, what a casual question!
Just asking casually, you want the position of queen? !
Yunniang kept out of the matter as it had nothing to do with her.
He looked up at the sky and down at the earth, but ignored the old emperor's gaze asking for help.
Chao Chao, she is supporting her grandmother.
