Chapter 977 - 977 6 Caught by the Short Hairs
?Chapter 977: Chapter 6 Caught by the Short Hairs Chapter 977: Chapter 6 Caught by the Short Hairs Feng Yin glanced at Official Shi, then at the head of the guards who was still putting on a performance of utmost loyalty,
before turning his gaze to the wine table.
Jiang Changhai and the others were arranged at another table and were not here.
At this table, there were only three people: His Majesty the Emperor, Feng Yin, and Dong Xiaoyan.
Just the two of us youngsters.
You’ve left behind Official Shi, who can compete with the Nine Colors sovereign, and secretly, after being probed by the Illusory Silkworm, there are still four shadow guards.
You still have to put on a show.
Of course, Feng Yin also understood that this was His Majesty the Emperor showing a gesture of closeness to the two of them and not an intentional act.
It’s just that he couldn’t help but make a few sarcastic remarks in his mind—a common ailment among modern people.
Official Shi began to pour the wine.
His Majesty the Emperor laughed heartily and said, “Initially, Palace Master Dong and I drank and talked freely, as equals, but when it came to age, I was… almost two thousand years younger than Palace Master Dong… Ah, speaking of it, it really is marrying above one’s station… In this life of mine, with fate above my head, the nation’s fortune tied to my body, treading the universe underfoot, and holding the power of life and death over the whole world… yet I’m doomed to a short life, alas, alas.”
Dong Xiaoyan said, “Uncle Emperor is at the pinnacle of the human realm, lacking some of the fun that we idle people in the wild enjoy, but bearing more responsibilities. It’s truly the great hero who spares no effort for the well-being of the people under his rule.”
His Majesty the Emperor laughed loudly and said, “You girl do know how to talk.”
As he spoke, he personally picked up his chopsticks and placed a piece of spirit fish meat onto Dong Xiaoyan’s plate, saying, “This first piece of fish, is for our little niece.”
“Thank you, Uncle Emperor.”
His Majesty the Emperor sighed with emotion and said, “I ascended the throne in my youth, nineteen years ago. Your father came to Xianyang fifteen years ago; you must have been only three or four years old then?”
In the Emperor’s eyes, a faint mist seemed to flash by as he softly said, “In the blink of an eye, the offspring of old friends has grown up.”
Dong Xiaoyan replied, “Uncle Emperor is in his prime, with exceptional talents and grand strategies, swallowing the universe in his belly, and holding the cosmos in his stomach. That is something my father cannot compare to.”
The Emperor began to laugh. “Your father, hearing such words from you, would probably spank you. He simply doesn’t want to bother with such concerns, whereas your Uncle Emperor, born into the imperial family, dreams of being an idle crane amidst the clouds, a dream that’s hard to come by.”
“Yes, circumstances differ.”
Dong Xiaoyan acknowledged.
