Chapter 169
Li Ruo was startled, and immediately wanted to cry, but His Highness squeezed out the last bit of her ability, it was too much.

But seeing Shangyue's meaningful eyes, he immediately raised a flattering smile, "Princess, my servant's skill in making cakes is not bad. When I return home next time, my servant will make you sweet-scented osmanthus glutinous rice cakes immediately."

"En." Shangyue nodded, accepting her flattery.

……

The imperial palace, Longze Palace.

On the warm couch by the window, a middle-aged man about 50 years old leaned on the couch to rest, and the whole bedroom was so quiet that a needle could be heard.Although he is over half a year old, the man's sideburn hair has gradually turned gray, but his outline is quite handsome, it can be seen how magnificent he was when he was young!However, his brows were slightly wrinkled, and his complexion lost a bit of its healthy luster. Instead, it was pale and sick. He seemed to be enduring some kind of pain, and even when he fell asleep, he seemed extremely disturbed.

The servant came in and saw that he was still awake, so he waited aside, not daring to disturb him.

After a long time, seeing the man's eyelids move, he seemed to have woken up, and then he reported in a low voice, "Your Majesty, the regent sent someone to say that he has something to do today, so he won't be here."

The man who had closed his eyes suddenly opened his eyes when he heard the words, the surprise in his eyes flashed away, and he murmured, "Ah Jiu, what's the matter? He has always kept his word and never missed an appointment when he said he would come. What's up today..."

The servant lowered his head, as if he didn't hear the emperor's doubts.

The emperor Ming Yutian thought for a while, turned his head to look at the servant, and asked, "Did that princess come into the palace?"

The servant said respectfully: "Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince Regent sent someone to pick them up, and he even went to Jingci Palace to pay his respects."

Ming Yutian was even more puzzled, "That kid went to Jingci Palace, why didn't he come here alone? He himself said hello that he would bring the princess to see me..." For this reason, he still tried his best , Unexpectedly, I waited for a long time in vain.

The servant carefully replied: "Perhaps there are still important things to deal with. After all, His Highness has to deal with too many government affairs every day."

When Ming Yutian heard the words, he felt a little emotional immediately, his originally bright eyes immediately dimmed, a little depressed, he waved his hand, signaling the servant to step back.

After the servant retreated, the huge sleeping hall seemed even colder and more empty. Ming Yutian coughed a few times, his face became more gloomy, and he sighed silently.

If it wasn't for his poor health, why would Ah Jiu have to shoulder all the burdens at such a young age?
He knows that his youngest son has extraordinary abilities, but he is only a mortal body, and he will also get tired...

Thinking of these, he feels distressed and helpless, the ambitions of his youth have long been dissipated in the torment of his illness.

In the past few years, he has been living on his last breath. If he hadn't been unable to let go of Ah Jiu, he would have passed away long ago.

Thinking of a few days ago, when Ah Jiu told him about the woman he wanted to marry, the faint joy that appeared on his always mature and prudent face made him feel a little relieved.

He also thought that this son was so devoted to government affairs that he didn't know much about the relationship between men and women!

Now it's all right, since he has a woman he likes, he is finally relieved, even if the other party is a subjugated princess, it doesn't matter, I believe Ah Jiu has her own sense of proportion.It's just that he has always been sympathetic to that child Chaoyang, and with her beauty and character, she is good enough to match Ah Jiu... If Ah Jiu is allowed to take in two girls at the same time, it is not impossible.
