hao still heard him clearly....Su Wenhao broke into a brilliant smile..."Zixuan, no matter what you've encountered, you can tell me, I will be with you..." Su Wenhao gently embraced the trembling Chen..."My lord" Bai Ying had never seen such a powerful aura before, and she looked at him with some concern.
"Get out! Scram!" Ruitianjie roared...
Bai Ying withdrew gracefully...
When Bai Ying walked out, Rui Tianjie slumped in his chair, staring blankly ahead...
Within the palace, one cannot use their own carriage, and must ride in carriages exclusive to the palace. Therefore, Rui Tianling got off his own carriage outside the palace.
"Five… Five Kings" The coachman stared blankly at the blood-red tooth mark on Ruitian Ling's...
It's incredible that someone in this world could bite the esteemed Fifth Prince of the Heavenly Court! No...looking at the Fifth Prince's demeanor, he doesn't seem angry. It seems like he's in a good mood. That must be the young lady from the Prince's Manor then... I never imagined that a celestial being like the Fifth Prince would pamper a young lady so much... it's truly rare to find such a thing in this world...
Rui Tianling glanced at the coachman and climbed onto the carriage...
The carriage stopped outside the emperor's sleeping quarters. Ruitianling, with a normal expression, got off the carriage and slowly walked up the steps paved with Han stone.
The palace attendants who came and went bowed to the Fifth Wangye, but as usual, the Fifth Wangye ignored them...
"See The Fifth Prince really has tooth marks on his face..."
"Yeah, yeah, who do you think bit it"
"I wonder, could it be that young lady from the Fifth Prince's Manor"
"Well... I don't know, look at the Fifth Prince's mouth, he seems to have a smile..."
"Indeed, indeed... Fifth Prince looks even more valiant..."
"If it was truly that girl who bit him, then the Fifth Prince must be very fond of her..."
“That’s right, if only I weren’t afraid of the Fifth Prince’s poison… To be loved by a man as divine as a god would be so desirable…”
"Don't dream, don't even dream in the palace, it's strictly forbidden. Let's go."
Ruitian listened quietly as several palace maids gossiped, then a barely perceptible smile appeared on her lips.
Before long, after Rui Tianling dismounted his carriage at the palace gate and entered the emperor's sleeping quarters, Chen Zixuan's name had spread throughout the imperial palace... Many versions circulated, but in the end, every version boiled down to one point: Chen Zixuan got lucky and received the favor of the Heavenly King, the Fifth Prince... And he was the only one favored...
If the livestreaming Chen Zixuan knew about this, he would probably be furious...
"Father!" Ruitianling bowed simply to the Emperor.
"Um... Father summoned you here because..." The Emperor lifted his head from a pile of documents, "What's wrong with your face"
The Emperor stared intently at Ruitian Ling's face, blinked his eyes, and then looked seriously at Ruitian Ling's face again: "This is... bitten by someone"
Rui Tianling didn't speak.
"The woman in your household" The Emperor restrained his tone.
Ritian Ling remained silent.
"She's done for!" The Emperor said, observing Ruitianling's expression. "To dare defy the Imperial family, I shall have her thrown out of the Noon Gate."
Seeing that Rui Tianling remained silent, as always, the emperor continued, “Beheading her would be too cheap for her, wouldn’t it”
Ruitianling remained silent, standing there quietly.
"Why don't we dismember her into five pieces A girl should be terrified hearing this, right" The Emperor observed Ruitianling carefully.
"Why don't we just slice her flesh into pieces, and then..." Seeing that Rui Tianling didn't react, the Emperor grew bolder with his words.
"Your Majesty, if there is nothing else, this prince will take his leave." Rui Tianling performed a bow and, without waiting for the emperor's reply, left on his own.
"You, you, you! You dare to call yourself the king! Everything is upside down! All of you are upside down! None of you were bestowed titles by me, who gave you the right to be called prince How dare he leave without my permission Do you see this Do you see!" The emperor hurled a scroll directly at Rui Tianling's departing direction.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. The Fifth Prince has always been like this. You shouldn't stoop to his level. It would be detrimental to your health." Huang Gonggong picked up the imperial edict from the ground.
"You said that I was too lenient with them, and each one of them is now acting recklessly. Now even the sixth son doesn't come to pay respects. If this continues, wouldn't I end up as a lonely man" The emperor dejectedly placed his brush on the inkstone.
Huang Gonggong smiled and said, “Your Majesty, you’ve been so good to the princes. The people know that Your Majesty has a sincere love for them. That’s why they aren’t worried about their lives now. All the subjects in this land praise Your Majesty for loving them like your own children...”
The Emperor was clearly pleased with Huang Gonggong's flattery. He shook his head and said, "You only ever say nice things to me. I've heard them for so many years now, but I can't tell which are true and which are false."
Huang Gonggong knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, my admiration for you is like the endless Yangtze River. Every word I say comes from the bottom of my heart. Even if I don't say it, Your Majesty can hear a lot just by turning around in heaven. These are what I heard from common people. They all want to serve Your Majesty. It's just that I am more fortunate and have been able to follow Your Majesty since I was young."
"Oh Do you all want to serve me"
"Indeed, Your Majesty!"
"Do you all want to be eunuchs"
“This… Your Majesty, you’re teasing me again!”
"Haha! Get up! I know you are loyal to me. Come, help me think of a way to teach the fifth brother a lesson!"
Huang Gonggong originally wanted to thank the emperor, but after hearing the second half of the sentence, he was so scared that he fainted directly to the ground: "Your Majesty, please don't joke with your servants. How dare I trip the Fifth Prince If the Fifth Prince finds out, wouldn't he flay my skin"
"If you don't help me punish the fifth prince, I won't hesitate to skin you alive."
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty... you're not making it easy for your servant! A servant only has one life and one skin. What use is a servant without his skin" Huang Gonggong wore a pained expression.
Why does every time I see the Fifth King, something bad happens… It's just a small disagreement between father and son, why drag me, an outsider, into it I really don't know what bad luck I've gotten myself into...
Huang Gonggong silently made a decision in his heart, from now on, whenever he saw the Fifth King, he must take a detour...
"How could I possibly make things difficult for you Weigh the importance yourself." The Emperor's light and airy words nearly made Huang Gonggong spit blood...
As the saying goes, "Like father, like son." These two are even more cunning than each other. This... this is really putting him in a tough spot...
He knew Five Kings' temper very well, if Five King found out he was helping the Emperor find trouble for him, he would definitely be in a bad situation... Better not to do it...
After serving the Emperor for so many years, Huang Gonggong still understood the Emperor's temper quite well. So he decided to feign illness and slip away tomorrow...
The Emperor knew Huang Gonggong well, and Huang Gonggong knew the Emperor equally well. Before Huang Gonggong could even utter a word, the Emperor spoke first: “Don’t try to play tricks on me. I’m not old, and my eyes are sharp. Just think carefully about how you can be of service to me…”
Huang Gonggong, exposed and humiliated, knelt on the ground with a pitiful expression and cried out, "Your Majesty..."
"Don't try that with me, I won't fall for it today..." The Emperor looked at Huang Gonggong, "Just spit it out, I know you already have a plan..."
Once again seen through, Huang Gonggong became even more depressed: "Your Majesty...the servant dare not..."
The Emperor tapped his temple: “Don’t keep it hidden, just say it. Otherwise, I’ll tell the fifth prince that everything before was your idea…”esn't he"The man nodded and was about to say something more.The doctor across from him winked at him and glanced behind him.The doctor immediately closed his mouth."What are you guys talking about" Yu...
