Hide And Cultivate In The East Palace, Only To Find The Prince Is A Girl

Chapter 834: Emperor Xia’s Marriage

It seemed like no actual harm had been done, but the First Prince had already lost his power. Stylone was his representative in the court. Even if he still had some hidden power, it wouldn’t be able to cause any waves. Including Qian Wenli, who had been eliminated from the Scholar Hall, the power in the court had almost been uprooted.

He was grounded for three days and fined a year’s salary. He was making it clear to the outside world that the Xia Emperor had completely given up on him. As long as his head wasn’t kicked by a donkey, he would know what to do and would definitely not join the Xia Emperor.

He did not know if it was an illusion.

Zhang Ronghua felt that Emperor Xia seemed to have aged a few times. If he were to disregard his status as the Human Emperor, he would be a parent disappointed in his children.

Many thoughts ran through his mind.

Xia Shili was a noble prince of the Great Xia Dynasty. He was of noble birth, held a high position, and wielded great authority. If he had put his mind on external affairs and made contributions, he would have a place in the imperial court even if the Crown Prince ascended the throne in the future. However, he had chosen the wrong path!

Put yourself in his shoes.

No matter who was in this position, they would not be satisfied. A prince who did not want to be the ” Human Emperor ” was not a good prince. If it was him, it would be the same.

Wei Shang poured a cup of tea from the teapot and brought it over. It was steaming hot, emitting a milky white fragrance. The Xia Emperor took it and pinched the lid of the tea, holding the tea in his hand, causing ripples to appear on the surface of the tea.

Judging from the fragrance of the tea, this was red lotus grape tea, the ceiling of ordinary tea leaves.

When it was cold, he took a sip and handed the teacup over. He stood up from the dragon throne.” Take a walk with me!”

“Yes, sir!” The two of them replied respectfully.

He quickly stepped forward, supporting the Xia Emperor on his left and right, with Wei Shang following behind.

After leaving the imperial study through the back door, the afterglow of the setting sun shone down. The sunset glow reflected the red sky, forming a beautiful landscape. A gentle breeze blew, blowing his hair. It was cool and comfortable.

They walked along the palace path towards the imperial garden.

He had come to the Imperial Palace many times, but he had never gone deep into it, nor had he come to the Imperial Garden.

There was a sentry post every three steps and a sentry post every five steps. There were Human Sovereign Guards everywhere, fully armed and standing there like a sharp sword. Their auras were restrained and not emitted at all, but from their eyes, they were shining with a sharp light and had a profound cultivation.

The huge imperial garden was picturesque, like a paradise.

The artificial mountains, lakes, spiritual flowers, and spiritual herbs were arranged appropriately and complemented each other. When the flowers were in full bloom, a rich fragrance wafted over, making people unable to get tired of it. It lacked some warmth, coldness, and oppression. A huge pressure was everywhere, as if it lacked some “vitality”.

The Xia Emperor revealed a rare scene. He did not have the domineering and domineering air of a sovereign. Instead, his face was gentle and he wore a kind smile.” It’s been a long time since I’ve been so relaxed.”

Zhang Ronghua smiled naturally.” You’re busy every day. You deal with military and political affairs. You spend your time on the people’s livelihood. You want the people to live well, eat well, have extra money, have new clothes to wear, and often go to restaurants.”

After a pause, his gaze fell upon the Xia Emperor’s hair.

His temples were white. Although it was covered by his black hair, it could not be hidden.

” These white hairs are the years and also proof of your achievements.”

The Xia Emperor smiled faintly and stroked his dragon beard.” Sly!” he said jokingly.

Ding Yi added,” My brother is right. You’ve been so worried about the Great Xia Dynasty. If it weren’t for you, how could there be today’s Glory World? Not to mention the capital, can the people at the border live carefree lives without being disturbed by the flames of war and avoid the enemy’s swords?”

Emperor Xia shook his head.” In my life, although I have made great contributions, the reason why Great Xia can have its current glory is because of the contributions of the soldiers, officials, and people. Some people may be unknown, but what they do is not ordinary at all. The burden is very heavy. It is precisely because of them carrying the burden forward and silently carrying everything that they can reject the enemy outside the country!”

Ding Yi was silent. He hesitated and didn’t know if he should ask or not. However, when he thought about how he hadn’t seen his grandfather for so many years, his heart ached. The feeling of blood being thicker than water couldn’t be erased. He asked,” Your Majesty, is my grandfather still alive?”

He had asked this question when he was young. Uncle Ding told him that Old Master was leading troops outside and that his mission was difficult. He could not return and could not reunite with him. He wanted him to feel kinship and grow up happily like a normal child. At first, Ding Yi believed him without a doubt. As time passed, his age and experience increased. As he came into contact with more people, his power also increased. Every time he thought about it, he had a bad feeling, as if his grandfather was not…It was gone!

The Xia Emperor’s words evoked a soft feeling in the deepest recesses of his heart. Only then did he ask.

The Xia Emperor stopped in his tracks. Like a benevolent elder, he extended his hand and patted his shoulder. Although his voice was soft, it was firm.” Your grandfather was also one of those who carried a heavy burden forward. He had made countless contributions. I had once persuaded him to come back and reunite with you. Your grandfather said, without a country, where would there be a home? Chang Qing is in the capital and doesn’t have to worry about food and drink. With Your Majesty looking after him, this old minister is very relieved. While I can still move, I will do my last bit for the country.”

Ding Yi’s nose twitched violently. His heart ached and he suddenly felt like crying.

The Xia Emperor caressed his head.” Don’t be so wishy-washy like a woman. No matter what happens, the men of the Ding Clan must not shed a single tear, even if they bleed to death!”

“Yes, sir!”

There was a pavilion by the side, so he walked over and sat down according to his position. The Xia Emperor sat in the main seat, while Wei Shang took out pastries and fruits from his Sumeru Bag and placed them on the stone table.

There were imperial guards guarding the surroundings, so no one could get close or eavesdrop.
