The Emperor nodded, feeling quite pleased, "Good, Beloved Minister Zhao, you may withdraw now. I am tired and need to rest."
This morning, the War Prince infuriated him. It’s almost noon now, and The Emperor hasn’t had breakfast yet!
Earlier, when he was angry, he didn’t even feel hungry and couldn’t eat. Now that his mood has improved, he feels a pang of hunger; The Emperor decides to have a hearty al and then take a nap.
The Emperor was rarely in such a good mood, and Zhao Yin was very happy too. He lowered his head and respectfully responded, "Yes."
After tidying up his props, he retreated.
The Emperor sat on the Dragon Throne, envisioning Gu insects wriggling inside Long Rui’s body, with Long Rui curled up in pain on his bed. His spirits lifted, and he couldn’t help but smile broadly, muttering to himself, "Long Rui, if you don’t let live comfortably, I won’t let you off easily either."
Having just been scolded by The Emperor, Eunuch Li stood at the door, afraid to enter. As he waited anxiously, The Emperor’s voice echoed from inside, "Eunuch Li, Eunuch Li."
Eunuch Li imdiately perked up and hurried inside, "Oh! The Emperor, your servant is here!"
"Have the Imperial Kitchen serve the al, I’m hungry."
"Yes!"
Eunuch Li quickly retreated. The Emperor had been venting anger all morning, his breakfast reheated over and over, not fresh had to be redone. On the Imperial Kitchen’s side, they were nearly driven mad preparing the Emperor’s breakfast.
Soon, The Emperor’s breakfast spread out in hundreds of dishes was served.
In a good mood, The Emperor even asked Eunuch Li to invite Noble Consort Wang to join him for the al.
"The Emperor, what’s made you so happy?"
Earlier, she heard that The Emperor was so overwheld by the War Prince in the Golden Throne Hall that he couldn’t breathe. After court, he returned to his chambers in a fury, skipping breakfast. The Imperial Kitchen was so busy ensuring The Emperor got his breakfast on ti that they didn’t even have ti to make so bird’s nest syrup for her.
Thinking The Emperor might be in a bad mood today, Noble Consort Wang was surprised when she received his call. Coming to Qingping Palace, seeing The Emperor smiling brightly, she felt even more puzzled, wondering what happened to The Emperor? Could he have been driven mad by the War Prince?
"The Emperor, are you alright?"
Noble Consort Wang stepped forward, extending her delicate hand to touch The Emperor’s forehead.
The Emperor removed her delicate hand, holding it while caressing it, he chuckled, "Beloved Consort, don’t worry, I’m fine."
"The Emperor, do you have a fever?"
"I’m perfectly well; why would I have a fever!"
"This concubine heard the War Prince was quite outrageous in the Golden Throne Hall. The Emperor, could you have been confused by anger?"
"Ah hahaha!" Suddenly, The Emperor held Noble Consort Wang and burst into laughter.
"The Emperor, what’s wrong?"
"Haha, it’s nothing, just a re War Prince, I don’t take him seriously."
"The Emperor, are you really alright?" The Emperor’s unusual behavior made Noble Consort Wang very worried.
"If we don’t eat soon, things will really go wrong!"
"What’s happening?" Noble Consort Wang was extrely anxious.
"The first Emperor of Moli Country to starve to death, hahaha..." The Emperor actually started joking.
"The Emperor, you’re so botherso, you scared this concubine." Noble Consort Wang couldn’t help but laugh too, picked up a pair of silver chopsticks, and served a spring roll into The Emperor’s bowl, saying, "The Emperor, if you’re hungry, eat quickly!"
"You’re indeed the one who treats the best!" The Emperor pinched Noble Consort Wang’s reddish cheeks before starting his breakfast.
