Chapter 583 World 6: The Weak and Helpless Crown Princess (23)
"Master, please slow down."
The sedan chair arrived very quickly. When Liu Lingxi knew about it, she immediately stood up and started walking out of the hall. No one reacted for a while.
After a long while, when they came to their senses, Ye Zhi and the young eunuch hurriedly followed.
Ye Zhi watched her master frown every time she took a step, but still tried to walk faster. She immediately went forward to support her with concern.
Even though he knew he shouldn't, Ye Zhi couldn't help but persuade his master to slow down.
"Master, you were so depressed last night... You should go slower now, or your body won't be able to handle it."
Liu Lingxi was upset right now and didn't care about these words of persuasion. She shook her head.
“Ye Zhi, I don’t know how His Highness is doing now, why would he offend Saint Yan Yan.
Do you think it was because of what happened in Fengyi Palace yesterday, or the incident of Lingzhi being beaten to death that day…?"
Liu Lingxi was obviously a little confused, and she thought about all the possibilities from the past to the present.
She held Yeats's arm tightly, as if doing so could provide her with support.
Ye Zhi didn't know what was going on and had no way to help his master, so he could only try his best to comfort him.
"Master, don't worry, we will be there soon. Please hurry them up."
"Yes, yes, faster."
Fortunately, the eunuchs carrying the sedan chair had strong legs and knew the situation was urgent, so they quickly arrived at the Yangxin Gate.
The moment Liu Lingxi appeared at the Yangxin Gate, Sheng Jin, who was reviewing memorials and meditating in the Yangxin Palace, received the news.
A drop of ink fell on a piece of paper, suffusing the words he had just written.
"Where do you think the Crown Princess is?"
Sheng Jin didn't care whether the memorial was submitted or not. He immediately jumped up from the dragon throne and looked at Xiao Ye who was kneeling to report.
His eyes were as sharp as torches, and at that moment, they were shockingly bright!
Xiao Ye Zi vaguely guessed the emperor's feelings for the crown princess. Although she was terrified, she——
He has already boarded the pirate ship, so there is no way out now.
So, he just lowered his head even lower, but his answer was not delayed at all.
"Yes, I saw the Crown Princess's procession from afar. They should have arrived by now."
"Go and have a look."
Sheng Jin started to walk out excitedly, his feet moving fast, but he stopped at the door and asked Xiao Ye a question.
"Are my clothes messy, my hair crooked, or my face stained with ink?"
"Your Majesty is handsome and graceful, and there is nothing wrong with him."
Little Leaf didn't dare to look at it for too long. He just raised his head slightly and quickly lowered his head again.
At the same time, I was muttering in my heart——
Your Majesty is too meticulous. The Crown Princess knows nothing. Maybe she is concerned about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince right now!
Little Ye Zi himself didn't know that his idea was soon confirmed, because...
When he followed the emperor out of the gate of the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, he saw the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess showing their deep love for each other!
He quickly glanced at his own emperor and saw that the emperor's face suddenly darkened.
Xiao Ye Zi didn't dare to look anymore. She stood beside Sheng Jin and buried her head even lower.
On the other side, the young couple still knew nothing and continued to be affectionate with each other.
"Your Highness..."
After Liu Lingxi got off the sedan chair, she limped to the prince's side, knelt down with him, and held his face in her hands with heartache.
The prince turned around and saw his little princess running towards him.
He almost thought he was dazzled.
It was not until the woman gently held his cheek with that gentle yet real touch that he came back to his senses.
Like waking up from a dream.
Sheng Changfeng's soft heart seemed to be touched by something, and his eyes were unprecedentedly gentle and moved.
He did not take away Liu Lingxi's hand that was covering his cheek, but covered it together -
"Xi'er, why are you here? You're not feeling well, how can you kneel down with me?"
The prince recalled that Xier had just walked in a strange manner, and remembered what happened last night, and he felt even more distressed.
"You should rest now. I was careless last night and made my father unhappy this morning, which is why you have to run around and work hard with me."
"Your Highness, I am worried about you..."
How touching this scene is, how moving it is, how - it hurts others' hearts!
Hearing the familiar voice and seeing the figure he had been thinking about day and night, but seeing that figure was calling another man's name, Sheng Jin felt like his head was going to explode!
It felt like there was a big hole in my chest, and countless cold winds rushed in, chilling my heart to the bone.
The funny thing is that even though it was so dazzling, he still couldn't bear to look away and kept staring at it infatuatedly.
"Your servant pays respect to His Majesty."
There were still some sharp-eyed people who noticed that the emperor had walked out of the gate of the Palace of Tranquil Longevity at some point, and they immediately bowed after realizing what was going on.
The palace maid's voice woke up the two people who were expressing their love to each other, and Liu Lingxi withdrew her little hand immediately.
Although the prince was somewhat reluctant to leave, and was craving for the warmth of the princess' body and her charming body fragrance, but...
There’s nothing I can do, it’s my father’s fault!
"My son, I will meet my father."
The two of them knelt in the same manner and saluted the emperor in the same way. They looked such a perfect match standing together.
Sheng Jin had never realized so clearly as at that moment that the person he loved did not belong to him, and his heartache was so real.
He just stared quietly at the pair of beautiful people in front of him.
No, to be more precise, he was just staring at that woman—Liu Lingxi.
Liu Lingxi felt the gaze above her head as if it were real, and her heart began to feel uneasy.
Why was her father staring at her like that? Could it be that the Crown Prince’s punishment really had something to do with her?
Is it because of the Fengyi Palace incident?
Just when Liu Lingxi was thinking about this and that, Sheng Jin's voice finally rang out.
"Everyone, get up."
The man's voice was full of majesty and dignity. No one could question it or refute it.
"Your Highness."
"Don't be afraid, Xier."
After Liu Lingxi stood up, she found that the prince was still kneeling straight on the ground, so she became worried too.
After the prince comforted his little princess, he looked up at the majestic figure.
"Father, I am guilty, but I still don't know what I did wrong. Please tell me clearly."
"Father, your Highness and I are husband and wife. Maybe your Highness did do something wrong, but your Highness is willing to share the responsibility."
Having said that, Liu Lingxi wanted to continue kneeling, but unexpectedly, her arm was supported by a strong hand.
Even through a layer of cloth, Liu Lingxi could still feel the burning temperature of the other person's palm, as well as the ambergris on the other person's body, which was so overbearing and rushed into her nostrils.
This person...
Liu Lingxi slowly raised her head and happened to meet the other person's fiery gaze——
"Father?"
