Chapter 1062: Chapter 1061: A Meeting of Minds
"Some days ago, I was unwell and hadn’t yet had the chance to entertain Prince Lili..."
"My feelings for Lili are mutual, and she is eager to return home to see my father."
Before the Emperor could finish, Chu Minghao interrupted him.
Chu Minghao leaned slightly towards the Emperor and said with a smile, "I hope the Emperor will forgive me."
He and Chu Qianli, had mutual feelings for each other?
Although it was clear that this was Chu Minghao’s excuse to prevent the Emperor from keeping Chu Qianli behind, once spoken, one must take responsibility for such words.
At the very least, the moment today’s remarks from Chu Minghao were uttered, countless rumors would immediately begin to spread everywhere.
One mustn’t speak carelessly.
It seemed that the Princely Heir was determined to take Chu Qianli back to Nanming with him.
Since they had spoken of this matter first, the Emperor naturally wouldn’t obstruct them.
However, with his condition, if he were to let Chu Qianli leave, and he became ill afterward...
Unexpectedly at this moment, Chu Qianli suddenly spoke up, "Emperor, you need only take one pill of my medicine each day. With this dosage, it should last at least half a year."
"I am merely accompanying the Princely Heir to Nanming to meet Prince Yu. After seeing Prince Yu, it’s not as if I won’t visit Beiming as a guest."
Her implication was that these two bottles of medicine would be enough for the Emperor to wait for her return.
Of course, whether she would actually return later could not be guaranteed by anyone.
But at least, within the next half a year, the Emperor’s illness would be safe and sound.
Although the Emperor’s face showed little change, still wearing a gentle, faint smile, there was somewhat of a sigh of relief in his heart.
This stubborn illness wouldn’t claim his life for now.
But when the pain flared up, it was truly agonizing, as if he were dying and coming back to life.
"Since Prince Lili’s mind is made up, I will not make things difficult for you. However, after meeting Prince Yu, do remember to visit Beiming and allow me to entertain you properly," said the Emperor.
"Thank you, Emperor." Chu Qianli bowed slightly and then coughed lightly twice before falling silent.
The Empress, seated on the Jade Chair, coughed twice at this time to remind Feng Qihe of something.
But Feng Qihe wore a sullen expression as if lost in thought and didn’t notice.
The Empress coughed again.
Feng Qihe was still unresponsive.
The Emperor’s expression, however, turned somewhat unpleasant: "If the Empress feels unwell, please go back and rest early."
Ever since the day the Emperor stumbled upon Chu Qianli treating the Empress and was chased away by the stench, whenever he saw the Empress, he would feel nauseated.
He couldn’t hide his disdainful look, which of course the Empress understood in her heart.
But she could only pretend not to notice.
The Empress replied with a smile, "It is just a minor cough and nothing serious, thank you for your concern, Emperor."
Not giving the Emperor the chance to send her away, the Empress eagerly added, "I never expected that Prince Lili and the Princely Heir have already developed mutual feelings. This is truly joyous and worthy of celebration... However, Hehe, don’t you also have something to say to your father?"
Named by the Empress, Feng Qihe grew impatient.
He had no desire to say such words.
But, at this point, it would not do not to speak.
He looked up into the Emperor’s eyes and said flatly, "Father Emperor, I have long been fond of Commandery Princess Feiyan. I was intending to ask for your permission for me to escort Commandery Princess Feiyan back to Nanming, and at the same time, to formally propose marriage to Prince Yu of Nanming on her behalf."
