Chapter 741: 343 Father and Son (Updated eight more times)

The emperor was furious!

He despised that poisonous woman, yet it seemed everyone around him had been bought over one by one. He didn’t bother mentioning the young divine doctor and Xiao Liulang, considering they knew her first.

But why did she have to manipulate his son too?

Kids were easy to fool, particularly this gluttonous little fat one. Just a sweet date was enough for him to abandon loyalties.

The emperor didn’t think it would be difficult to win his son’s loyalty back, nor did he believe that his son genuinely discovered the Duchess Dowager’s kindness. He was convinced it was nothing more than the Duchess Dowager scheming to steal people from him.

Qin Chuyu shivered in Lady Jing’s embrace.

Lady Jing gently stroked his face, coaxing, "Don’t be afraid, go to Grandma Jing."

Qin Chuyu clung tightly to Lady Jing, refusing to come out.

Unable to forcibly extract Qin Chuyu from Lady Jing, the emperor restrained his fury and commanded, "Get the palanquin, we’re returning to the palace!"

Back at Huaqing Palace, Qin Chuyu darted straight into Lady Jing’s chambers, worried his father would spank him.

Watching his son sprint off faster than a rabbit, the corner of the emperor’s mouth twitched.

Lady Jing could not help but laugh as she said, "Xiaoqi is still young. Don’t be too harsh on him, he’ll be heartbroken."

The emperor snorted, "Better a broken heart than a lost life!"

Lady Jing sighed, shaking her head, "Your Majesty, are you misunderstanding Dowager Empress too much? Renshou Palace is not a den of wolves and tigers. The Dowager Empress is Xiaoqi’s grandaunt. How could she possibly harm him?"

Standing in the corridor, looking at the quiet courtyard, the emperor’s eyes turned icy, "Perhaps Imperial Concubine forgot what happened to Xiao Hen? Wasn’t four-year-old Xiao Hen innocent? Yet she still met with her vicious claws!"

Lady Jing replied, "Perhaps it’s all a misunderstanding?"

The emperor looked at Lady Jing and casually dismissed her argument, "How many misunderstandings can there be? Imperial Concubine is just too kind-hearted, always repaying malice with kindness, but some people will not feel grateful, instead they redouble their efforts to undermine."

Lady Jing pressed on, "Then don’t blame Xiaoqi. He’s still so small; he doesn’t understand anything."
