“If we find my daughter, I’m sure she’ll be just as cute and adorable,” Emperor Yong Ning said.

If Jun Ning had heard these words, she would definitely cough and say, “You clearly don’t know me! Well-behaved? Cute? Adorable? I’m sorry, I don’t know what those words mean. ”

All she knew was that she had to quickly tell Jun Yu that she needed the seeds and then take her leave.

The emperor’s vision was not very good due to his old age, but she could not count on that. After some time, he would definitely figure out that the brat came dressed as a girl to meet Jun Yu.

And at this moment, Xiao Lizi had a feeling that something was wrong.

Shouldn’t a playmate for the seventeenth prince visit the empress first before entering the palace? Why did she come straight to this cave?

Xiao Lizi had asked around in private. This cave seemed to be the seventeenth prince’s secret hideout. Usually, he would come in secret and stay for a while before heading back on his own. No one knew about this.

It was very strange for an adult and a child to come into his hideout so brazenly.

“Your Majesty, something is amiss about the palace maid and the little girl.”

Emperor Yong Ning rolled his eyes at Xiao Li, who was so scared that he knelt down immediately. “Your Majesty.”

“What’s wrong? She’s just a little girl who’s about the same age as Seventeen. What can she possibly know? Don’t look at children like you look at adults,” Emperor Yong Ning sneered. “A child’s world is very simple and pure.”

Emperor Yong Ning firmly believed that the little girl was just going to play with Seventeen. He did not doubt her.

However, Xiao Lizi still felt that things were not that simple.

He kowtowed to Emperor Yong Ning and said, “Your Majesty, why don’t we go up and take a look? Just in case.”

“I’m not going over there,” Emperor Yong Ning said in a non-negotiable tone. “Little Seventeen doesn’t like to talk much, and he’s also boring. Now that he finally has someone around his age to play with, it’s a good thing. Plus, this is the first time they’re meeting. Do you think it’s appropriate for us adults to go and stir things up?”

This…

Emperor Yong Ning seemed to be in a good mood now. He said, “It’s not appropriate. It wouldn’t be good if things went south. ”

“Why not?” Xiao Lizi was puzzled. “If you lose a playmate, you can always find another one!” They were just playmates, and there were plenty of them outside the palace.

As soon as he said this, Xiao Lizi felt that Emperor Yong Ning’s entire aura had turned cold. He felt as though a treasure he had taken a fancy to had been ruthlessly ripped from his grasp.

Xiao Lizi was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and secretly observed Emperor Yong Ning’s face. He saw that Emperor Yong Ning was still staring affectionately at the little girl. He instantly understood why.

The emperor was not looking for a playmate for his son. He was being selfish. He liked the little girl and wanted her to get along with the seventeenth prince so that she could stay by his side. This way, spending time with the little girl might relieve the heartache he felt from missing his daughter.

After Xiao Lizi thought it through, he quickly changed the topic and said, “That little girl is not bad. She looks like a very suitable playmate for the seventeenth prince. I could not see her clearly just now.”

After hearing this, the cold aura around Emperor Yong Ning finally dissipated.

Meanwhile, Jun Ning felt a burning gaze on her back and felt very uneasy. She was afraid that if she delayed this any longer, Emperor Yong Ning would notice something.
