Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In the main hall.
Both the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty and Taishang Xuanji were clearly bewildered.
In particular, Taishang Xuanji was even more dumbfounded.
‘Illegitimate son?’
‘When did I ever have an illegitimate son?’
The problem was that he wasn’t even aware of that matter.
“Xuanji, when did you have an illegitimate son?”
At this mont, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty couldn’t help but look at Taishang Xuanji.
The latter was dumbfounded too.
“Your Majesty, I have never had an illegitimate son, this must be a misunderstanding. Let get to the bottom of this.”
Taishang Xuanji answered.
The emperor nodded and told him to settle the matter.
Without further ado, Taishang Xuanji turned around and left the hall to ask his servant about the matter.
After a while, Taishang Xuanji hurriedly returned to the main hall and looked at the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty with a bitter expression.
“Your Majesty, sothing major happened.”
Taishang Xuanji said with a glum expression.
“Sothing has happened? What happened?”
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was even more bewildered.
‘What happened?’
“Your Majesty, it has sothing to do with you.”
Taishang Xuanji continued to ask bitterly.
“Nonsense!”
“How can it have anything to do with ? Don’t accuse .”
In an instant, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty’s face turned sullen. ‘What does your illegitimate son have to do with ? That’s plain nonsense.’
‘How can you forcefully put the bla on ?’
“No, no, Your Majesty, you’ve misunderstood.”
“The person who ca to see is Changyu...”
Taishang Xuanji didn’t know if he should say it or not.
“Changyu?”
“What is Changyu here to see you for?”
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was a little agitated and also curious because he didn’t expect it to be Su Changyu.
He really didn’t understand what Su Changyu was doing at Taishang Xuanji’s ho.
“Your Majesty, Changyu probably misunderstood sothing and mistakenly thinks that I’m his biological father.”
Taishang Xuanji didn’t know exactly how to answer.
‘How did I encounter such a thing?’
“Um...”
All of a sudden, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was at a loss for words.
“Your Majesty, what should I do?”
Taishang Xuanji asked the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty because he had no idea what he should do. Even if he knew, he could not say it because he would be the one getting punished if things go wrong.
However, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty did not answer.
He paced around in the hall.
A few minutes passed.
Finally, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty took a deep breath and looked at Taishang Xuanji.
“Let’s go to your place.”
A look of determination appeared in the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty’s eyes.
He didn’t want to hide anything anymore.
Since Su Changyu was his son, there was no need to hide anymore.
Thinking of this, the gaze in the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty’s eyes beca more and more determined.
Taishang Xuanji also imdiately understood the emperor’s intentions.
He didn’t say anything more and led the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty to his official residence.
At the sa ti, at the backyard of Taishang Xuanji’s residence.
Su Changyu stood quietly.
Under the peach blossom tree, he looked extraordinarily handso, and even the most beautiful peach blossoms in the world paled in comparison to him.
However, when Ye Ping stood beside him, he didn’t seem inferior at all. The only advantage Su Changyu had over Ye Ping was that his aura was very much like that of an immortal.
On the other hand, Ye Ping was like a Confucian scholar.
Looking at the huge garden, Su Changyu’s heart was full of bitterness.
It was exactly as his master guessed.
His biological father was wealthy and powerful. He reckoned that the beautiful residence belonging to his father should be worth at least a few thousand taels of gold.
In the front yard, a few won were weeping miserably.
Taishang Xuanji’s lawful wife didn’t cry.
It was normal for n of this era to have several wives but she did feel a little upset.
‘He actually has an illegitimate son, but he didn’t tell about it. Does he not trust ?’
‘What is it?’
However, the ones who cried the most miserably were her daughters.
Taishang Xuanji’s wife was baffled.
“Why are you all crying so miserably?”
Taishang Xuanji’s wife was really curious about why they were crying even though she wasn’t.
“Mother, since this person is father’s illegitimate son, doesn’t that an he’s related to us by blood? He’s so handso and suave but he’s related to us. Of course we’ll cry.”
“Yes, Mother, when I think of such a handso man getting snatched away by other won, my heart really aches. It feels as if my heart is shattering.”
They were crying in devastation, but the reason for their misery rendered their mother speechless.
However, at this mont, the servant walked over in a hurry.
He exclaid, “Master is back!”
As his voice sounded, everyone couldn’t help but get up in a bid to walk out of the door.
However, the servant added another sentence that made everyone shocked.
“His Majesty is here too.”
Everyone imdiately fell silent.
“His Majesty is here too?”
“What is His Majesty doing here?”
The crowd was curious, but Taishang Xuanji’s wife imdiately interjected, “Okay, stop fooling around and let handle it.”
Taishang Xuanji’s wife stood up and walked out.
At this mont, Taishang Xuanji and the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty arrived at the residence.
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty walked in front and Taishang Xuanji walked behind.
As soon as they entered the official residence, Taishang Xuanji’s wife quickly strode over.
“Greetings, Your Majesty.”
Taishang Xuanji’s wife said very respectfully. She had no choice but to be respectful towards the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.
“Forgo the formality.”
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty said indifferently.
Taishang Xuanji hurriedly said, “Milady, so things are hard to explain now. Where is Changyu?”
There were many things that Taishang Xuanji did not want to explain in detail about. After all, he couldn’t spread it before the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty announced it to the public.
Since she could beco the Chancellor’s wife, Taishang Xuanji’s wife was naturally intelligent and understood that there must be so other hidden reasons behind this.
Hence, she didn’t think much about it or butt in.
Instead, she answered, “Lord, he’s in the back garden. I’ll have the servants make arrangents.”
“Alright. Thank you, Milady.”
Taishang Xuanji nodded, but he also signaled for her to leave. She imdiately understood and excused herself.
Afterwards, Taishang Xuanji looked at the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty and said, “Your Majesty, now...”
“Let’s go.”
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty nodded without saying much.
However, deep down, he was quite anxious.
After all, he was worried that Su Changyu wouldn’t accept it.
He was also worried that Su Changyu would bla him.
He might be the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.
However, at the end of the day, he was Su Changyu’s father.
Between father and emperor...
The status of a father mattered more.
He could give orders to the world, but he could not order Su Changyu around, especially since they had been separated for so many years during which Su Changyu had suffered lots of hardships.
Soon, they arrived at the back garden.
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty got more and more nervous.
In the end, he even stopped outside the courtyard.
He looked at Taishang Xuanji.
The latter lowered his head without saying anything after sensing the emperor’s gaze.
Well, he would avoid talking about it unless necessary.
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty had the final say.
He couldn’t tell the emperor what to do. If sothing happened, he wouldn’t be able to bear the consequences.
Looking at Taishang Xuanji, who was hanging his head low, the emperor knew what he was thinking about. After laughing bitterly, he bit the bullet and entered.
When the two stepped inside the back garden...
Su Changyu imdiately reacted.
He also imdiately sensed that the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty and Taishang Xuanji had appeared.
At this mont, Su Changyu was sohow nervous.
No, he wasn’t just nervous.
He was extrely nervous.
At the sa ti, Su Changyu realized that his bad habit... was about to act up again.
