Sister, you traveled through time too?

[Imperial City, Inside the Imperial Palace]

Tang Zhao announced to all officials that she had found her daughter who had been living among the people yesterday and planned to give her the title Princess Zhaohui.

A banquet was specially held in the palace to celebrate the princess's return.

For a time, there were many different opinions in the imperial city. After all, it was the emperor's first child, and everyone was paying close attention to it.

But because she was just a princess and not a prince, not many people questioned her.

But the concubines in the harem were suddenly furious. They had never imagined that the emperor, who never allowed anyone to get close to him, actually had a daughter.

They have very few opportunities to get close to the emperor on a daily basis, let alone conceive their own children.

For a moment, everyone was curious about the little princess.

The night banquet to celebrate the princess' return is about to begin, and the whole palace is bustling with activity.

Everyone wants to see what the emperor’s first child looks like.

Tang Zhao knew very well that if anything went wrong at today's banquet, Baiyun would be criticized.

Although Bai Yun is not Tang Zhao's child, since she has already acknowledged this daughter, she must be responsible.

He always felt that life in the palace was boring and it would be nice to have a child to accompany him.

At least, not so lonely.

He had already changed into his gorgeous clothes and was ready to pick up Baiyun for the banquet.

He placed Baiyun in a palace very close to him. To show his respect for Baiyun, Tang Zhao renamed the palace Xiangyun Palace.

Since such a lonely and skinny child has acknowledged me as his father, I can't treat him badly.

"Your Majesty, how about having a cup of tea first? It's still early."

Jiang Dehai followed Tang Zhao and handed the tea to her personally.

Tang Zhao nodded and asked the palace servant who was serving Baiyun how long they would have to wait.

"In reply to the emperor, it may take some time for the princess to take a bath. After all, she has been away from home for a long time..."

The palace maid answered with her head down, fearing that the emperor would become impatient and angry.

Tang Zhao didn't mind waiting any longer. She just nodded as the palace servant said and drank her tea in silence.

Little did he know that his question caused his servants to think that he was getting impatient waiting.

The palace maid retreated and hurried to the room where Baiyun was bathing to urge him.

At this moment, Bai Yun was still soaking naked in the bathtub, with four palace maids carefully rubbing her body.

"Rub it faster! If you are slow, you will suffer if the emperor gets tired of waiting!"

The palace maid was the head maid of Xiangyun Palace. Her words carried more weight than those of ordinary people, and she did not have much respect for Baiyun.

Baiyun was still very young and she didn't take the princess seriously.

After hearing this, several palace maids increased their strength and moved much faster.

Bai Yun was thin and it hurt when she was rubbed too hard. There were red marks on her body and she clenched her teeth in pain.

But Baiyun didn't say anything. She just silently let the palace servants scrub her.

When the maid in charge saw that Bai Yun said nothing, she thought that he was an easy person to control, and her expression became even more disdainful.

Bai Yun just glanced at her lightly without any expression.

By the time Bai Yun finally finished showering and changing clothes, there were many red marks on his body.

She looked at the shocking marks on her arms with satisfaction in her eyes.

She let the palace maid dress her. Looking at the red marks hidden in her sleeves, a cold light flashed in her eyes.

Tang Zhao had finished a cup of tea and waited for a long time before white clouds appeared.

When he raised his eyes, he saw the small figure.

Baiyun was wearing a lake blue skirt with beautiful butterflies embroidered with gold thread. It was very beautiful and set off her fair skin.

It's just that she is too thin and always looks pitiful.

She wore a golden crown on her head. Maybe it was because of her wealth and fame that she was dazzled, or maybe it was because the white clouds in her eyes were very bright. She did not look timid.

Instead, it makes people feel very dignified.

Tang Zhao smiled with satisfaction and waved Bai Yun to come over.

Bai Yun looked at his cheap father, and trotted over and threw himself into his arms.

"Father~"

Bai Yun spoke softly, blinking her innocent and clear eyes and looking at Tang Zhao with a smile.

She knew that this was very cute and she thought her father would like it.

Tang Zhao looked at the white clouds and felt her heart melt.

The word "Father" made the young boy very happy. It also allowed him to experience the joy of being a father ten years in advance.

He tried to maintain his persona by appearing calm on the surface, but he was smiling brightly in his heart.

Tang Zhao: Hehe, he calls me father, hehehe~

"Good boy, come and see the gift your father gave you."

Tang Zhao smiled faintly, raised her hand to take the box from Jiang Dehai, and handed it to Bai Yun.

Baiyun smiled sweetly, said thank you politely, and then opened it.

Inside the box is a very ornate safety lock.

The lock body is made of top-grade mutton-fat jade, carved into lifelike auspicious clouds.

The entire necklace with the auspicious cloud jade lock is made of gold wire, and two beautiful diamonds are inlaid on each side of the lock.

This was a gift that Tang Zhao had someone rush to make, and he carefully put it on Baiyun.

"Thank you, Father~"

Baiyun thanked him happily, thinking that this gift from his cheap dad was really not cheap.

From now on, don’t call him cheap dad, just call him expensive dad.

As she thought about it, she raised her hands to hug Tang Zhao. She deliberately raised her hands high to expose her arms.

Just as Tang Zhao was about to pick up Bai Yun, he saw the shocking red marks on Bai Yun's arms.

He frowned, took Bai Yun's hand, gently touched the marks, and asked in a deep voice: "Who bullied you?"

The maid in charge standing by felt a jolt in her heart. She had not expected that the emperor, who usually did not like to get along with others, would talk to the princess for so long.

What was even more unexpected was that the emperor would notice the wound on the princess' arm.

Tang Zhao looked at the white clouds, his eyes filled with worry.

Bai Yun lowered his head and quickly pulled down his sleeves, trying to hide the scars.

She quickly shook her head and said that no one bullied her.

"Not a shit. I knew there was something wrong as soon as I saw it." Tang Zhao thought to himself and gave Jiang Dehai a look.

He knew very well that there must be something wrong. After all, he was bullied before because of Bai Yun.

Jiang Dehai understood and immediately shouted loudly.

"How dare you! What's wrong with you servants? How do you serve a princess?"

He let out a loud roar, which scared all the palace servants.

The palace maids who served Baiyun all knelt down in unison.

Jiang Dehai knew that the emperor cared a little about this little princess, so he knew that the palace servants who were serving him today would have no chance of escaping.

"Your Majesty, please understand! We serve the princess wholeheartedly!"

"The servants were gently scrubbing and bathing the princess. Her skin was so delicate that the marks were so shocking."

"The Emperor's clear warning!"

The several palace maids who were serving Baiyun in bathing hurriedly explained and exchanged glances with the palace maid in charge.

Tang Zhao didn't care what these people said. He just looked at the white clouds and said:

"I am your father. Your father is the Son of Heaven, the Emperor, the ruler of the world."

"You don't have to be afraid. Father will protect you."

He stroked Bai Yun's head lovingly, thinking, how could my daughter be bullied by others?

It’s bad enough that he was bullied in the past, but now that he is the emperor, how can he allow others to bully his daughter?
