Chapter 438: Bao Zhu Zhu Meets the Liang Emperor
Chapter 438: Bao Zhu Zhu Meets the Liang Emperor
Dou Qingyi sat in the Crown Prince's Mansion, patiently awaiting the imperial edict.
Half a day had passed, and there was still no sign of the eunuch delivering the edict. She couldn't help but feel a bit anxious.
The last time at the Crown Prince's Mansion, that little brat had already blocked her once.
This time, she hoped there wouldn't be any more unexpected changes...
As she thought about it, a sense of foreboding suddenly rose from the depths of her heart.
Eunuch Zhen saw her concern and assured her confidently, "Princess Consort, please don't worry. I personally heard His Majesty issue the edict in the Imperial Study. There's no mistake. I believe Eunuch Yu is getting on in years, and the carriage is moving slowly, causing a delay."
On the surface, he seemed to be making excuses for Eunuch Yu, but in reality, he was implying that Eunuch Yu was old and should retire.
At this moment, Dou Qingyi was only concerned about whether she could successfully become the Crown Princess Consort. As for Eunuch Zhen's ambitions, she chose to ignore them.
Eunuch Zhen, sensing her mood, wisely refrained from saying more.
But with the edict issued, no one could stop it.
The Liang Emperor was not like the young emperor of Da Zhou, easily manipulated by a mere corrupt official. He was a domineering and powerful ruler, and no one dared to intercept his edicts midway.
At this moment, whether the edict would be intercepted or not was uncertain, but it was clear that the edict was no longer usable.
Eunuch Yu looked at the tiny culprit who had destroyed the edict—a little dumpling that had emerged from the Crown Prince's embrace—and was completely stunned.
He wasn't sure if he should be more shocked that the edict had been destroyed or that the Crown Prince had somehow produced this little fellow out of thin air...
Meanwhile, Lu Yuan immediately recognized the little one as he poked his head out.
The shock he felt was no less than that of Eunuch Yu.
The little one had come to the southwest, and now he was mixed up with the Crown Prince.
Either of these events alone would be unbelievable, let alone both happening together.
According to the plan, the little one should have been accompanying Liu Muyan in Wushan.
Had the old man taken the little one away from Liu Muyan's side, unwilling to part with him?
If that was the case, where was the old man now? And how did he manage to deliver the little one to Lu Zhaoyan? Given his understanding of Lu Zhaoyan and the old man, it was more likely that Lu Zhaoyan had taken the little one away.
But what could be Lu Zhaoyan's reason for taking the little one? Could it be that his identity had been exposed?
There were too many questions swirling in Lu Yuan's mind, but in reality, it only took an instant for him to process them, as his mind worked quickly. In the time it took an ordinary person to think about one issue, he could consider ten or more.
Without pausing in his steps, he quickly approached the two and scooped up the little one, who had just finished vomiting, into his arms.
"She's wrapped too tightly, and it's making her uncomfortable."
He untied the cloak.
Then, he patted the little one's belly and frowned, "How much did you feed her?"
Lu Zhaoyan: "Two sugar-coated haws."
After thinking for a moment, he added, "And half a large meat bun."
Lu Yuan: "..."
Lu Zhaoyan: "I didn't feed her the meat bun."
"Who did?"
Lu Yuan asked.
Lu Zhaoyan replied honestly, "Your mother."
Lu Yuan was stunned. "Say that again, whose mother?"
He recognized each word, but when put together, they made no sense. Suddenly, he recalled Lu Zhaoyan's earlier words, "Your sister."
Before Lu Zhaoyan could respond, Lu Yuan had almost figured out what was going on. He grabbed the little one and asked sternly, "What do you call me?"
Bao Zhu Zhu, seeing that the handsome Crown Prince couldn't protect himself, could only adapt to the situation and called out in a soft voice, "Daddy."
Lu Zhaoyan: "..."
Eunuch Yu: "..."
