Chapter 1360: Chapter 1008 Back to Beijing_2
"Mother Empress, do you believe this yourself? The Xie Family has a waist token and can visit Pan’Er in the palace at any time. If she misses her family, she can simply send a message for them to visit. Why sneak out of the palace herself?
Moreover, how many days has she been gone? I’ve sent people to the Xie and Ji Families, and no one has seen her!"
"Then where do you think she could have gone with her big belly? It’s been so many days; could she have been captured by spies from a rival nation?"
The Empress Dowager became more worried the more she thought about it.
The Emperor was also very anxious. Long Wu, after searching for days without finding the Empress, knelt before the Emperor to plead for punishment.
"What good does it do for me to hit you? Would hitting you help find the Empress? Instead of asking for punishment, why don’t you go to the Ji Family again and see if they can think of where the Empress might have gone?"
The Emperor’s words to Long Wu spread among the servants of Kunning Palace, who couldn’t help but sigh at how some people have different fates. They would be beaten for losing the Empress, yet Commander Long Wu wasn’t.
Long Wu, anxious and uneasy, went to the Ji Family. Before he even reached the Main Gate of the Ji Mansion, the sky darkened. He looked up in confusion; it seemed like the giant wings of a great phoenix were blocking the sun overhead.
Indeed, when he looked up, he saw the great phoenix flying into the Ji Mansion, with people on its back.
And one of those people with a big belly—who else could it be but our Empress?
Relieved, Long Wu turned and ran back to the Imperial Palace.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Good news, wonderful news!"
At this moment, the Emperor was anxious and fuming over the Empress’s sudden disappearance.
Upon hearing this, he said, "You’d better have news about Pan’Er, or you can wait for your spanking!"
"I do have news about the Empress, Your Majesty. The Empress has returned!"
As soon as Long Wu spoke, the Emperor couldn’t help but become excited.
"Are you serious? Where is she?"
"It’s true, it’s true. The Empress had actually ridden out on the great phoenix. I just went to the Ji Mansion, and at the entrance, I saw the great phoenix carrying several people in, and our Empress was on its back!"
"The great phoenix has returned, carrying your Empress. Don’t tell me that while the Empress was missing, she went to Nanjiang?"
Long Wu twitched slightly, having the same suspicion, but...
"Why don’t you ask her yourself when the Empress returns?"
The Emperor glared at him and said, "What are we waiting for? Hurry up and let’s go to the Ji Family!"
The Emperor spoke as he prepared to leave the palace.
Long Wu quickly said, "Are you just... just going out like this?"
The Emperor was still wearing his Dragon Robe! If he went to the Ji Mansion like this, it would cause chaos!!!
"Ah, it doesn’t matter. Take off your clothes!"
The Emperor started taking off his clothes as he spoke.
Long Wu: "Your Majesty, why should I take off my clothes?"
"For me to wear, what else?"
"Then... then what should I wear?"
"That’s up to you. If there’s nothing else, you could wear my Dragon Robe?"
Long Wu immediately knelt on the ground, "I deserve to die, I dare not!"
"Enough nonsense, take off your clothes!"
Under imperial pressure, Long Wu had no choice but to obediently take off his clothes, watching the Emperor put on his clothes and swagger out of the palace.
A young guard gave him a sympathetic look and was about to leave when he was caught.
"Hey you, quickly, take off your clothes!"
The young guard: "!!!"
The Emperor arrived at the Ji Family and entered through the Main Gate without needing to be announced.
Inside, there was laughter and joy.
"Grandmother! Grandfather is so clumsy. He still can’t even comb hair; it’s better if you help Suisui comb it! When you do it, Suisui feels very comfortable!"
Old Madam Ji replied, "Alright, alright! Grandmother will comb it for you."
Her hands trembled, as if not listening to her, unable to pick up the comb for a long while.
Ji Shang felt a pang in his heart, grasping her hand, and said, "I don’t believe I can’t braid our dear grandchild’s hair today. You just leave it to me."
As he said this, he secretly checked Old Madam Ji’s pulse and Qi.
The final result...
"It’s nothing serious, you still have time, learn slowly."
This person has cultivated and achieved enlightenment; to ordinary people, he seems like an immortal, with a long lifespan. But she is already aging, nearing the end of her life. How many more days can she enjoy such familial bliss?
Old Madam Ji forcibly picked up the comb and slowly braided Xiaosuisui’s hair.
Xiaosuisui closed her eyes, enjoying this beautiful moment.
Until the emperor appeared, her little ponytail was firmly in place atop her head, she cheerfully shouted "Godfather Emperor!"
The Emperor was overjoyed to see her.
"Suisui! You’re back. You naughty child, running off without a word, do you know how worried your Godfather Emperor was about you?"
Seeing Xiaosuisui, the Emperor began scolding, but after a while, he suddenly thought of something.
"Speak honestly, has your pretty aunt been with you these days? Did she secretly come to find you?"
Xiaosuisui tilted her little head back and giggled, "Pretty Aunt was worried about Suisui and came to find me. Godfather Emperor, please don’t blame her; she was just concerned about Suisui, that’s why she sneaked out of the palace!"
Hearing this, the Emperor thought that was indeed the case and said, "She’s alright, isn’t she? She’s got a baby in her belly; she shouldn’t be traveling long distances and getting tired."
