Chapter 825: Chapter 826: Your Method is Too Simple and Crude!

Emperor of Xiyun said, "I know well your filial piety. Even if you disparage yourselves with numerous words, I still believe you are good. However, why do you not reside in the palace but outside the city? Fenghua Palace has been tidied up for you. It would be so much better if you lived in Fenghua Palace—it would be convenient for me to see you."

An Jing said, "Staying in the palace for a few days is fine, but to live there permanently... You know, Father Emperor, I come from a farmer family, and Changyi, before he joined the army, wasn’t from a noble family either. We really aren’t suited to palace life."

Emperor of Xiyun said, "I guessed as much, so it’s up to you." Everyone had come to the Imperial Capital, and he was satisfied with seeing them often; he would not demand anything more.

Just then, from the inner chamber came the panicking voices of an eunuch and a palace maid, "Little Prince, Third Young Master, you really can’t go up there."

It was then that An Jing and the others realized that Su Yi Jing and An Yiqing had run off to play in the inner chamber, and as for what they really couldn’t do, An Jing was quite puzzled.

Emperor of Xiyun was also puzzled, so he had Eunuch Fu go and take a look.

Soon, Eunuch Fu returned and reported, "To inform the Emperor, the Little Prince and Third Young Master wanted to climb onto the dragon bed to play, and the slaves were terrified, kneeling all over the floor."

Without a second thought, Emperor of Xiyun said, "Let them go up, don’t make them cry."

Eunuch Fu was shocked inside; that was the dragon bed! The Emperor was really spoiling Prince Yi’s children too much.

However, remembering how much the Emperor doted on Prince Yi without limits, Eunuch Fu came to terms with it and hurried into the inner chamber, ordering the eunuchs and palace maids not to stop Su Yi Jing and An Yiqing from climbing the dragon bed.

An Jing hesitated but then said, "Father Emperor, isn’t this inappropriate..."

"What’s inappropriate about it? Can Jing’er and Qinger overthrow my throne?" The Emperor of Xiyun spoke indifferently, his tone revealing neither happiness nor anger.

An Jing broke out in a cold sweat and was about to kneel to the Emperor of Xiyun, as she was particularly sensitive to issues of usurping authority and plotting coups, but before she could move, she was pushed back down by Xiao Changyi.

Xiao Changyi grunted, "Why pay him any mind, I flipped that dragon bed of his quite a few times myself."

An Jing, "..." Husband, you are too awesome!

Emperor of Xiyun wasn’t angry at all and even laughed, "It’s just as well you do not reside in the palace; at least my bed won’t get turned upside down again."

Xiao Changyi said nothing, continuing to drink his tea calmly.

Curious, An Jing whispered to Xiao Changyi, "Husband, why on earth would you flip Father Emperor’s dragon bed?"

Xiao Changyi grunted again, "He did it to himself. He always kept me up at night to play chess. When I said I was tired, he suggested I could rest a bit on that bed before continuing the game. Eventually, I flipped his bed, and he let me go back to Fenghua Palace."

An Jing: "..." Your method is too blunt!

Emperor of Xiyun remarked, "Yi Er, not to criticize you, but you are sometimes too impulsive and need to control that."

An Jing: "..."

Emperor of Xiyun continued, "Fortunately, you only flipped over the bed. If you had flipped me over, would I still be alive?"

An Jing: "..." I think, you really annoyed my husband to the point where he couldn’t stand it, so he simply dealt with the problem in such a crude and straightforward manner!

Seeing that Su Yi Xing and An Yiyun also went to the inner chamber to play, Emperor of Xiyun stopped talking about flipping the bed and instead laughed, "The children seem to really like it here. Let them spend the night with me tonight; tomorrow, I’ll have someone send the children back to you."
