Chapter 228: Emperor, manage your concubine
The Seventh Prince was naturally excited, but he extremely restrained the excitement he felt. After a flash of surprise and joy, the Emperor’s eyes continued to show concern to the Third Prince.
The Seventh Prince was stunned, so he came closer to the emperors, then said: “Imperial Father, don’t worry, third brother will be fine.”
“Little Seven is right, nothing will bad happen to your third brother.” The Emperor carefully looked at the Seventh Prince. At that moment, he realized that although the Crown Prince and the Seventh Prince came out from the same mother, they don’t look the same.
It was because he ignored the Seventh Prince for long.
Seeing the Seventh Prince like a little man, the emperor realized that his youngest son was now this big, so he couldn’t help but be quite emotional. The Emperor said while holding the Seventh Prince’s hand: “Little Seven, today, you accompany imperial father.”
“Mmm, Little Seven will go together with Imperial Father and accompany Third Brother.” The Seventh Prince always included the Third Prince’s name when he opened his mouth. Because he knew that this love of the emperor was only temporary. The best son for him was the still Third Prince Xiao Zian. If he wanted to get the favor of the Emperor, he mustn’t compete with the Third Prince.
“Good boy, you really care about your third brother.” The Emperor seems wanted to say something, but when his eyes swept from the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince shrink his neck, so he no longer speaks.
The Seventh Prince acted like he didn’t understand a thing. He innocently said: “Imperial Father, not only me, Imperial Mother, Imperial brother, Imperial Concubine and the others are also worried about third brother. Everyone only keeps it to their heart.”
Listening to these words, some dark clouds inside the Emperor’s heart scattered away. Other people felt relieved with this. Only the Empress and Imperial Concubine Zhou were not.
Imperial Concubine Zhou was irritated at the Seventh Prince this time. Because the Seventh Prince didn’t hesitate to used his son to get the Emperor’s favor. On the other hand, the Empress was blaming herself for not being a good mother. Her son was still young, but he needed to hide his true self. And in order to get his imperial father’s favor, he needed to please a concubine’s son.
This was absolutely shameful for the Empress. But, her son still has to smile and swallow this shame.
The Empress’s face still looked gentle and dignified, but she was tightly clenching her hands that were hidden in her sleeves. Her nails were embedding on her palms, but it seems she doesn’t feel any pain.

When Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu came to the palace, there was this strange atmosphere. However, the eunuch continued to guide them: “Xiao Wangye, Xiao Wangfei this way please.” Xiao Tianyao was wearing a scarlet robe, while Lin Chujiu was wearing a purple dress when they entered the palace.
When they entered the imperial hall, Xiao Tianyao slowed down his footsteps and walked beside Lin Chujiu. As the two of them continue to walk inside, there was still some light, so they could see everyone’s eyes were staring at them. However, the moment they came in, the door closed and the room become darker. But, who knows why the two of them were still the center of attention.
It’s been a long time since Xiao Tianyao entered the palace because of his crippled legs. But now that he came, the emperor’s eyes were full of shocked and angry. And when the emperor looked at Lin Chujiu, his eyes were full of malice.
Xiao Tianyao ignored all the people’s eyes that looking at them. He walked together with Lin Chujiu in front of the emperor. Then, he bowed his head and said: ” Huangshang.”
This was a greeting?
Lin Chujiu finally saw Xiao Tianyao’s arrogance in front of the Emperor. He really didn’t put the emperor into his eyes.
Sure thing!
Xiao Tianyao didn’t give the emperor a face. Lin Chujiu was also bad in flattering, so she only greeted the emperor, the empress, the princes, and Imperial Concubine Zhou one by one. But, as for the snow goddess Mo Yuer?
Heh Heh … From the moment Xiao Tianyao came inside, Lin Chujiu saw a pair of sticky eyes looking at her husband. So, too bad, she forgot to greet her.
After Lin Chujiu completed her greetings. The Crown Prince and the Seventh Prince came forward and paid respect to Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu. Lin Chujiu didn’t say anything, while Xiao Tianyao coldly said: “No need for courtesy.”
When everyone finished paying respect. The Emperor didn’t offer them a seat. However, Xiao Tianyao didn’t wait for the emperor’s instruction. He directly took Lin Chujiu to sit down in the empty space. And then, he asked directly: “Huangshang, in addition to the matter of the Third Prince, what else is there that we needed to enter the palace?”
This attitude was not something that can only be described as arrogance. Xiao Tianyao didn’t take the Emperor seriously. From the bottom of her heart, Lin Chujiu silently sympathized with the Emperor.
When the emperor heard the Third Prince, he tried to suppress his anger.
Although the emperor was really angry, he can still be rational. He secretly took a deep breath and showed a big smile: “In addition to the matter of the Third Prince, of course, zhen wanted to see you. Now that you can walk again, zhen now feel at ease. And if Imperial Father can see your condition right now, he will certainly be happy.”
“Imperial Father was really happy that benwang escaped that disaster and didn’t die. But as for the others, benwang doesn’t know.” Xiao Tianyao’s words were full of sarcasm, but… …
The Emperor was able to act calmly as if those events have nothing to do with him: “If you didn’t die, it means you have a great luck. Tianyao rest assured, zhen will not let anyone treat you unjustly again.”
“Thank you, Huangshang.” Xiao Tianyao was so ruthless. It was obvious that he was feeling lazy to even stretch his mouth. Seeing the Emperor on the top seems has nothing more to say. Xiao Tianyao lazily speaks the matter, right on the spot: “Huangshang, didn’t you summon my Wangfei to check your sicked son? Where is Zian?”
The Emperor didn’t expect Xiao Tianyao will mention that matter directly. So, he could only say at the moment: “Inside the Inner Hall.”
“Then, let’s go.” Xiao Tianyao got up and took a glance at Lin Chujiu. When Lin Chujiu got up, he took a step forward.
Lin Chujiu silently followed, but at the same time, she thought: Sure enough, if Xiao Tianyao was with me. Nobody wants to bring me trouble.
Fortunately, although Xiao Tianyao was crazy, he didn’t forget that there was a lot of guards in the palace. He didn’t go directly into the inner hall, he waited for the emperor to get up and lead the way.
Lin Chujiu secretly rejoiced, Xiao Tianyao didn’t get mad. The Emperor has no reason to bring them trouble. Because if the Emperor punish Xiao Tianyao, she will also be in trouble.
Under the guidance of the Emperor, the Empress and the others walked out from the Imperial Hall. Even Imperial Concubine Zhou who never spoke also followed.
Imperial Concubine Zhou doesn’t care about the battle between the Emperor and Xiao Wangye. All she wanted and praying for, was for Xiao Wangfei to save her son.
In this occasion, it can be said that the snow goddess, Mo Yuer was not qualified to enter the inner hall with everyone. But, Mo Yuer was not aware of this. And she did not only followed everyone but also walked side by side with Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu.
When Imperial Concubine Zhou noticed Mo Yuer, she knitted her eyebrows. This small concubine walked in front of her?
However, on such occasion, Imperial Concubine Zhou didn’t dare to open her mouth, but she secretly wrote it down inside her heart. On the other hand, Xiao Tianyao suddenly stopped walking, then said with full of dissatisfaction: “Huangshang, you should manage your concubine.”
What?
When everyone heard this, they stopped and looked back. But, who knows when Mo Yuer walked side by side with Lin Chujiu. A small concubine like her did not only walked in front of Imperial Concubine Zhou but also stood beside Xiao Wangfei!
What does Mo Yuer mean by this?
Everyone looked at Mo Yuer, but Mo Yuer completely acted ignorantly. She just stood there calmly. The Empress frowned her eyebrows, she was about to open her mouth, but she heard the Emperor say: “Come, someone helps Yu Meiren to rest in her palace.”
Seeing Xiao Tianyao walking freely, the emperor was already feeling unhappy. So, with Mo Yuer’s move this time, a fire undoubtedly engulfed the Emperor’s heart, but… …
