Chapter 2684: Chapter 2684: There’s Nothing in the Palace
Of course, he didn’t intend to finish all the books he brought into the palace in one go. After all, the palace already has plenty of books he can read, far more than in the academy.
“I…”
“Your Majesty, Prince Zhan and Prince An Yang have entered the palace.”
Just as the little one and the elder were about to speak, Eunuch Fu approached and whispered in the Emperor’s ear.
“Hm?”
The Emperor looked up at him.
He thought it would take a few more days, but he didn’t expect the affairs of Dowager Consort Yu and her son to conclude so swiftly?
“Where are they? I’ll take Yilu over.”
“Sire, the two princes have gone to see the Retired Emperor at the Supreme Palace,” responded Eunuch Fu.
Otherwise, even if he received news, it couldn’t be him coming to report to the Emperor first; it must be the two princes who found the Emperor.
Emperor: “…”
Entered the palace and did not first see their elder brother and son, but immediately went to the Supreme Palace to see the Retired Emperor?
Seems like the Retired Emperor was indeed not favored by them. Entering the palace, they immediately wanted to annoy the Retired Emperor, didn’t they? Could it be that something else was uncovered in the Northern Lands?
“Since that’s the case, let’s also go to the Supreme Palace, Yilu, come.”
He took An Yilu’s hand and led him to the Supreme Palace, coincidentally to see if the Retired Emperor had gone outside to bask in the sun these past few days. After all, he had heard Eunuch Fu say that the Retired Emperor had shut himself in the hall for several days without coming out.
…
When the door of the hall was pushed open, the Retired Emperor instinctively looked up and cursed.
“You wretched son, still know… how come it’s you?!”
Not yet time for meals, he thought it would be the Emperor entering upon opening the door, but as he lifted his head, he saw two familiar faces that he loathed.
Who else could it be but Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue.
“You two really came back!”
Wasn’t it just a trick that wretched son used to coax him into telling the truth? But these two had indeed returned, and…
He turned his gaze to the pair holding and carrying children. It was bad enough that they came to mock him, but they even brought the children along, truly thinking he was easy to bully?
Indeed, he was easy to bully now. Not only could that wretched son come anytime to mock him, but even the eunuchs and palace maids in the Supreme Palace ignored his orders, sometimes secretly ridiculing him.
Thinking about it was really suffocating!
“Does it matter if we’re back? Retired Emperor, do you not welcome us?”
An Jiuyue looked smilingly at the haggard Retired Emperor sitting on the couch and retorted.
Then, she turned her gaze to the two little ones she held and signaled Qian Jiyun to set down the little baby before speaking.
“Treehouse, Zhou’er, take Nuonuo outside to play.”
The little children also knew that their parents wanted to speak with the old man in front of them and were sending them out, so they didn’t linger and happily went out hand in hand to play.
“Big brother, there’s nothing interesting in this palace. Let’s go somewhere else to play.”
The little baby suggested while walking forward to the two older brothers. Anyway, their parents always kept an eye on them, so anywhere they went would be known.
“Okay, let’s go outside to play together.” The two older brothers nodded, and they ran out of the Supreme Palace.
Meanwhile, inside the hall, the Retired Emperor’s murderous gaze continuously stared at Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue.
“You both dare to come back, aren’t you afraid I’ll have someone kill you?” The Retired Emperor gritted his teeth and glared viciously at them, speaking through clenched teeth.
