This movement naturally alarmed the emperor, who was enjoying delicious food with his beloved concubine. He turned around and saw that the ones the guards viewed as a great enemy were actually two little kids, and when he looked again, one of the chubby girls had a familiar jade pendant hanging around her neck. He raised his hand and said, "Bring those two little guys over."

Little Nine and Cheng Mingrui were brought before the emperor. The emperor looked at the chubby little girl laughing merrily, then looked at the crying little boy. He couldn't help but feel that it was very interesting. Glancing at the jade pendant on Little Nine's neck, he asked quietly, "Who are you?"

Little Nine blinked several times. "Are you the Emperor?"

The supervisor standing behind the emperor could not help but exclaim, "Impudent! How dare you be so rude in front of the Son of Heaven. Come, take him down!"

The emperor glared discontentedly at the overseer, signalling that they weren't allowed to act.

Little Nine, who was still on the edge of the knife, did not understand the supervisor's words. She only understood the word "impudence" and glared at him. "I'm asking him, I'm not asking you. You really have a lot to say!"

For the first time in his life, the overseer was despised by a child. He couldn't help but be stunned. When the emperor saw this, he found it laughable and couldn't help but laugh out loud. Imperial Consort Hui, who was following beside the Emperor, couldn't help but laugh. "This little girl is very interesting. I wonder who she belongs to?"

Little Nine glanced at Imperial Consort Hui's elegant hairpin. She didn't think it was pretty and looked average, so she walked up to the emperor familiarly and pulled his sleeves. "Hey, are you the emperor?"

"What do you think?" The Emperor had already guessed Little Nine's identity and felt that this girl was indeed as interesting as she was when she was young. He couldn't help but have the thought of teasing her as he deliberately asked this question.

Little Nine tilted her head as she looked at the emperor and thought for a moment. "I think you're the emperor!"

"Oh, where did you see it?"

"My grandfather said that the emperor is the biggest man in the world and everyone listens to him, no, they all listen to you. My fifth brother said that only the emperor can wear yellow dragon-like clothes. If you wear yellow clothes and there are dragons on top, then you must be the emperor!"

The emperor couldn't help but laugh again. The supervisor looked at the laughing emperor with a hint of surprise in his eyes. Ever since the empress's funeral and the crown prince left, the emperor had never been so happy again.

Seeing that the emperor was still laughing, Little Nine couldn't help but tug on his sleeve. "Your majesty, don't laugh anymore. I'm hungry!" As she spoke, she rubbed her stomach in grievance. Ever since she entered the palace, she had never had the chance to drink water from a snack. If she had known that class would not be fun, she would not have come.

The emperor couldn't help but laugh as he waved for people to bring the roasted meat for Little Nine and the rest to eat.

Little Nine could not stop eating in big mouthfuls. Her mouth was stuffed full of food like a squirrel. The emperor looked at her with interest. He smiled and said, "Eat slower, eat slower!" Seeing that Little Nine's face was covered in oil, he casually picked up a handkerchief and wiped her mouth.

Everyone couldn't help but be stupefied. One had to know that this was the emperor! Ever since the birth of his mother, he had always been the type to stick out his hand and say what he wanted. Since when did he have to serve someone else? Could it be that this little girl came out of nowhere due to some great luck? He was actually treated so intimately by the Emperor.

Little Nine, on the other hand, didn't feel the slightest bit strange. When she ate at home, she didn't even have to do it herself. Here, she was extremely self-reliant. Little Nine stuffed the last piece of meat into her stomach and gulped down a cup of tea. She then burped and rubbed her belly comfortably before sitting back on the chair.

The emperor was already stunned by Little Nine's astonishing appetite. He couldn't help but ask, "Little girl, could it be that you haven't eaten breakfast this morning?"

Little Nine shook her head and pointed out with her finger, "I ate a big piece of Hu Pao this morning, drank a bowl of congee, and ate two steamed buns and some vegetables. However, I didn't eat any meat." Little Nine smacked her lips in regret.

The emperor was stunned. He looked at Little Nine's bloated stomach and joked, "Since you ate so much this morning and now you're eating so much barbecue, aren't you afraid your stomach will burst?"

Little Nine glared at the emperor, scaring the other prisoners. The emperor was also stunned. It had been a long time since the empress had left, and no one had dared to stare at him. Thinking of the empress, the emperor couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Little Nine refused to give in and said, "I'm tired, so I'm hungry. You still have so much meat, so I just ate a little bit." As he spoke, he stretched out his plump hand to try and feel the sensation.

The emperor couldn't help but be amused by Little Nine. He asked in amusement, "Tell me, what did you do? "He's actually so tired that he's hungry."

Little Nine told the story of her dispute with Third Princess in an exaggerated manner, stretching out her arms and saying, "I've walked so far to get here. Sigh, I'm so tired!"

When the emperor heard this, his gaze changed slightly. He glanced at the supervisor, who was already sweating profusely. He quickly went over and said softly, "This servant will go ask for the details now." The emperor lightly raised his hand. The overseer immediately retreated quietly, while Imperial Consort Hui's eyes couldn't help but flicker.

The emperor looked at Little Nine with a smile and asked, "Do you like that Third Princess?"

"I don't like it!" Little Nine shook her head without any trace of politeness.

"Why?"

"She always keeps her head up, and even makes me kneel. If I don't kneel, she'll get angry, and it won't be fun."

"Then the next time you see her, you won't kneel. Tell her that I said it, what do you think?"

Little Nine looked at the emperor and grinned. "Good, good. Your majesty, you're so good. Little Nine will always play with you in the future!"

The emperor was stunned. He actually felt happy after being praised by a little kid. What's going on?

Little Nine felt that she was already familiar with the emperor, so she leaned forward to prop on the emperor's knee and said mysteriously, "Your majesty, can you give me some meat?"

His son may not have many children, but to date, he has only had three girls and a son. However, other than the crown prince, no other child has ever been so intimate with him. Seeing Little Nine like this, he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart and ask with a warm smile, "Do you want dried meat? Haven't you eaten your fill? "

Little Nine shook her head, gesturing for the emperor to lower his head. She whispered into his ear, "My grandmother doesn't want grandfather to eat more meat. The meat here is delicious, so I brought some back for grandfather to eat. This is a secret. Don't tell anyone else!"

The emperor couldn't help but look at Little Nine with a smile. This little girl, it was not in vain that State Duke Hsing doted on her. She was truly a filial person. Seeing that the Emperor had agreed, Little Nine unceremoniously ordered someone to pack a large bag of roasted meat for her grandfather to eat.

Thinking about the meat, Little Nine couldn't help but lick the corner of her lips and drool. The Emperor saw this and found it funny, but just as she was about to get someone to bring Little Nine some roasted hump, Imperial Consort Hui stopped her and said gently, "Your majesty, this child is still young. Eating a lot of meat might make him easy to accumulate."
