680 Doting Grandchildren, Slap in the Face (1)
Not to mention that the relationship between the Emperor and the Eldest Princess and her daughter was so tense, he did not have the intention of establishing this lineage at all. Even if he did, he would not surpass the Eldest Princess and Yu Wan to let a child who did not know how to speak be the crown prince!
The Emperor held his forehead.
He had a headache.
It hurts!
It hurt more than his face!
His face hurt because he had sworn not to go to the Vermilion Bird Palace, but he went eagerly. He had gone more than once. As for his headache, it was because of this little fellow. Not only did he snatch his heirloom seal, but he also came to sit on his throne. Is the throne something you can sit on? Huh?
The Emperor looked at Dabao resentfully. Dabao felt him looking at him and turned to look at him adorably.
The Emperor : “…”
The Emperor’s anger instantly fell. He covered his eyes sadly and helplessly. He regretted bringing this little thing into the palace.
The civil and military officials did not know what kind of suffering the Emperor had experienced in his heart. Many of them recognized the black little egg. Ever since the Seventy-feet Little Gu Elder was revealed to be the little master of the Helian family during the ritual, the portraits of the three of them had spread among the commoners.
The three of them were too easy to recognize. After all, there was no fourth such dark little fellow in the world.
It was unknown which of the three children the Emperor brought to court.
But no matter which one it was, they were much more beautiful than the portrait. Look at those big black eyes, small nose and mouth, a pair of heroic eyebrows, two chubby little cheeks, and a round stomach.
A voice flashed across everyone’s hearts—Oh my god, they wanted to pinch it!
There were many people from Nangong Yan’s faction in the court, but even they wished they could reach out and steal this little black egg.
As the saying goes, a country cannot go without a ruler for a day. The Emperor was already old, and the position of the Crown Prince was empty. This was definitely not a good thing for Nanzhao, which was already in a precarious situation. The people needed the Crown Prince, and they needed someone to succeed the country. If the Emperor did not make a decision for a long time, it would attract wild guesses. Could it be that there was really no one to succeed the country?
The Little Princess’s actions were disappointing. Although the Eldest Princess had the holy artifact and the Gu Elders, she was still a jinx. Was the Emperor not satisfied with these two? The commoners who had originally guessed that the Eldest Princess’s fate might be wrong gradually wavered in the shadow of the Emperor not recognizing her for a long time.
How could the commoners know that it was not that the Emperor did not want to recognize her, but he could not.
In short, when they saw the Emperor bring a little great-grandson to the throne room, the civil and military officials were excited.
“I…”
“Long live my Emperor!”
Just as the Emperor was about to explain to everyone, before he could speak, the civil and military officials knelt down in unison. A monstrous roar echoed throughout the throne room, almost rushing through the roof and into the clouds.
The Emperor held his forehead. “No…”
“Long live my Emperor!”
“My dear ministers…”
“Long live my Emperor!”
After three rounds of cheers, the Emperor no longer wanted to speak.
“Mhm.” Dabao nodded seriously.
Everyone was stunned, and so was the Emperor. This child even acknowledge it? Long live to me, why did you acknowledge?!!
The ministers’ thoughts were different from the Emperor’s. Dabao’s adult-like serious expression and especially serious “Mhm” amused the ministers. How could there be such a cute child? They really want to carry him back!
Dabao’s expression was extremely serious. The ministers wanted to laugh but did not dare to. They were all holding it in.
A doctor from the Censorate mustered his courage and probed, “Then… we’ll rise?”
Dabao nodded solemnly. “Mhm.”
Hahahahaha! What kind of immortal child was he!!! He even knew how to let them stand up!
Everyone burst into laughter in their hearts!
Dabao did not know how to speak. He only knew how to hum and occasionally laugh like a pig with his brothers. However, the ministers did not know this. They felt that this child cherished his words like gold. He was too cold and stylish!
Dabao sat for a while and felt that it was not fun here. He hugged the heirloom seal and jumped down. When everyone saw him walking towards them, they hurriedly knelt on the ground.
Dabao looked at them strangely and walked up to the doctor of the Censorate who had just spoken to him. He raised his chubby little hand and patted the other party’s shoulder solemnly.
The doctor of the Censorate trembled with excitement.
He had high hopes for him!
Dabao expressed that there was dust on his shoulders.
