Novel Full Chapter 141
Pengman brought the plate of cakes over after that, and Lin Feilu held a piece of cake in both hands, gnawing quietly at the side. She had bright sparkling eyes and a small face, and her head bobbed while she was eating, like a cute little hamster.
Emperor Lin watched her from the side, adoring her more by the second. Although he was very fond of the Eldest Imperial Princess, he would sometimes be overwhelmed by Lin Nianzhi’s hyperactive personality.
The Second Princess passed away in her early age; and the thought of the Third Princess just disgusted him (one who pushed Lin Feilu to the lake).
On the other hand, the Fourth Princess was too dull and honest, and it was difficult to enjoy the joy as a parent when she could never conceal her fear for him.
Imperial Concubine Su’s Sixth Princess was only three years old now. Although she was also naive, she lacked Little Fifth Princess’ charm and was far too young. She acted too much on instinct and cried any time she wanted. Emperor Lin was a little traumatised after witnessing her tantrums during his visits.
On usual days, he would spend his spare time and pay more attention to the princes, checking on their homework and training them in riding and shooting.
Because of that, the princes had always feared him; they were always well behaved and did not dare to be presumptuous in front of him, but in exchange, the closeness between father and son was lost.
He seldom spent time with his daughters, and at this moment, he suddenly felt that his daughter was much cuter than his sons.
Daughters would act like a baby, call me “Father” softly, and had adorable buns on their heads!
Can any princes do that?!
No!
Emperor Lin’s undisguised delight was undoubtedly noticed by Lin Feilu. Her head still buried in the cake that she was holding in her hands, she turned her petite body slightly to the side, leaving only half of her back in Emperor Lin’s vision.
Emperor Lin burst into laughter, amused by her shy demeanor, feeling like he had not been so happy for a long time.
Lin Feilu finished her snack and wiped her hands with the kerchief handed by Pengman. With a satisfied expression, her small body swayed slightly following the swaying rhythm of the carriage. Her glistening eyes widened suddenly as her gaze fell on something.
Emperor Lin followed her gaze. It turned out that it was a sachet worn on his waist.
Her head tilted in doubt, wondering if she was mistaken, but when she took a closer look, it indeed was the sachet that she gave to the Crown Prince.
Why is it here?
Confused, she tugged her little buns and looked at Emperor Lin with her little face in befuddlement.
Feeling a surge of shame, Emperor Lin coughed dryly and said, “This is given to me by your Third Brother.”
The little dumpling relaxed her brows and blinked in realisation.
The father and daughter got along very well. After a while, the carriage stopped for a while, and the servants outside reported, “Your Majesty, Consort Mei is here.”
Emperor Lin smiled and said, “Come in.”
The carriage curtain was pulled aside and Consort Mei entered the carriage, carrying an alluring scented breeze. She bowed first, and then greeted softly, “I’ve come to accompany your Majesty to finish the unfinished game of chess yesterday.”
Emperor Lin carried Lin Feilu to his side, and chuckled, “Okay. Pengman, set up the chessboard.” He addressed Consort Mei, “I want to take a closer look today if your chess skills have improved.”
Concubine Mei groaned, “Your Majesty is making fun of me again.”
The two laughed and chatted for a while, and Consort Mei looked at Lin Feilu who was nibbling snacks on the side with a look of concern, “How is the Fifth Princess’ voice today?”
Lin Feilu nodded obediently, with a lovely, exceptionally harmless smile.
