So sweet! She's pampered like a precious gem in her little world.

Lin Qingyue hadn't expected that when she rushed over to examine Princess Yuanjia's pulse, she would run into His Majesty carrying the little princess and coaxing her towards her bedchamber as soon as she stepped into the Zichen Palace.

"Lin Qingyue, a female physician of the Imperial Medical Academy, greets Your Majesty and Princess Yuanjia."

Jingyin glanced casually at the person kneeling on the ground, without stopping, "Get up, come and take the princess's pulse."

"Yes."

When there are outsiders around, Chu Yu reverts to her quiet and obedient self. She only becomes lively and vibrant in front of Jing Yin, behaving like she should at her age.

Jingyin carried her straight to the bedside, bent down and carefully placed her back on the bed.

Lin Qingyue, who followed in, was startled after only glancing at it out of the corner of her eye.

What did she just see?

His Majesty held Princess Yuanjia and placed her on the dragon bed?

That's a dragon bed, my goodness!

She had naturally heard about Princess Yuanjia's favor with the emperor, but no amount of rumors could compare to the shock of seeing it with her own eyes.

After Jingyin sat down next to Chuyu, he asked Lin Qingyue to come forward and take her pulse.

Lin Qingyue kept her head down the whole time, kneeling on the low couch beside the bed, and gently placed the medicine box in her hands aside.

"Your Highness, please extend your hand so that I may take your pulse."

Chu Yu obediently handed over her little hand.

The little girl's skin was pinkish-white, and her skin was as smooth and delicate as jade. Lin Qingyue was even a little afraid to touch her, for fear that she might accidentally leave a scar on her delicate skin.

The pulse diagnosis was conducted quietly.

Jingyin sat upright to the side, somewhat nervous.

A moment later, Lin Qingyue withdrew her hand from taking the pulse and bowed to the two of them, saying, "Your Majesty, the princess is in good health and there is nothing wrong with her."

"But she felt uncomfortable just now, does she need some medicine?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Yu's face flushed instantly, and the tips of her ears secretly turned red.

Why does this person tell everyone everything?

Doesn't she want to lose face?

The little hand that was closest to him poked him silently in protest.

Jingyin was worried and didn't realize that the little girl was embarrassed and angry. He simply grabbed the naughty little finger and held her little hand.

Lin Qingyue lowered her head, effectively concealing her almost uncontrollable surprise.

"Your Majesty, the princess is young. If she is only slightly bloated from a meal, she can simply digest the food and will not need medicine."

The girl, who had been nervous because the boy mentioned taking medicine, finally relaxed after hearing this and nodded in agreement.

Jingyin chuckled as he watched the little girl's pigtails sway back and forth, his voice low and gentle: "So afraid of taking medicine?"

The little girl looked up at him, somewhat puzzled. What was he asking? Would anyone like to drink medicine?

But she still explained to him in a serious tone: "Medicine is bitter, I don't like drinking medicine."

Sitting on the edge of the bed, with his feet barely reaching the footrest below, the little boy looked so serious, it was incredibly cute.

Even Lin Qingyue couldn't help but smile. This little princess was indeed lovable; no wonder His Majesty doted on her so much.

-

The female doctor left after taking the pulse.

Chu Yu felt sleepy as soon as she touched the bed and yawned three times in a row.

Her almond-shaped eyes were brimming with tears, which softened Jingyin's heart, and he couldn't bear to force her to go for a walk.

The boy raised his hand and gently pinched the little girl's chubby cheeks, which were soft and adorable.

Is the baby sleepy?

She went to bed early last night, but I guess she didn't get a good night's sleep. Now that she's finally settled down, let her catch up on her sleep.

Jingyin was already very skilled at taking care of people, and he quickly helped her take off her outer garment, leaving her only in her inner garment.

He carried her to the bed and laid her down, then covered her with a quilt.

Chu Yu then realized that she had her own little soft pillow.

She was brought back last night, and there was no pillow for her to use in Zichen Palace. When she woke up this morning, she saw that Jingyin had folded a soft, low pillow for her using his own inner garment.

After the young man finished doing all this, he prepared to get up. He didn't have to attend court, but he had a lot of government affairs to handle.

I'll finish this quickly while the little girl is sleeping, so I can spend more time with her when she wakes up.

He had a brilliant plan, but before he could even get up, the little girl grabbed his sleeve.

A sleepy, childlike voice asked, "Where are you going, brother?"

Jingyin froze, and the little girl on the bed couldn't even open her eyes, but she still insisted on pulling him to ask questions.

The words that were about to come out suddenly turned into: "Brother won't go anywhere, he'll just stay here and sleep with the baby."

"Sleep well, I'm right here."

The boy's unique voice was clear and gentle, soothing people's hearts just right.

Hearing his words, the little girl finally felt relieved and soon fell into a deep sleep.

After she fell asleep, Jingyin stayed with her for a while to make sure she was sound asleep before tiptoeing away.

He did not go to Yanying Hall; Li Zhi sent all the memorials he needed to handle to the study in Zichen Hall.

The little girl will definitely look for him when she wakes up, so he stays in the Zichen Palace, which makes him feel more at ease.

In the study.

Today's memorial concerns only two matters.

The massacre of the Shen family last night.

And Princess Yuanjia, whom he just conferred the title of Princess Yuanjia this morning.

Scholars died remonstrating, warriors died in battle.

Besides impeaching the regent for his abuse of power and the persecution of loyal ministers, the officials also advised Emperor Jingyin against disregarding ancestral laws and bestowing such honors upon an orphaned daughter of a general's family.

Jingyin reviewed the memorials with a stern face, and Li Zhi, standing to the side, didn't dare to breathe loudly.

As expected, His Majesty is still the same His Majesty.

The gentle and considerate emperor in front of Princess Yuanjia was all an illusion!

-

Chu Yu woke up after only a short time.

Through the bed curtains, one could see Ying Qi waiting by the bedside.

[Little Milk Cake.]

[Here I am, host.]

Where is Jing Yin?

[He's reviewing documents in the study next door and got really angry. You could take this opportunity to appease him and improve your relationship with him!]

Chu Yu: "..."

She strongly suspected that the system assigned to her had some serious illness.

Jingyin lost his temper over matters of the court; what could a five-year-old girl possibly do to comfort him?

If I accidentally say something I shouldn't and arouse his suspicion, I might lose my life.

She didn't want to be offline before she even grew up and accumulated enough affection points.

Little Milk Cake, however, looked unconvinced.

How could the host be completely unaware of his own charm?

In its view, Jingyin had already placed the host at the very top of his heart.

It even felt that, given Jing Yin's current attitude towards the host, even if he became suspicious of the host's identity, he wouldn't be willing to do anything to the host.

Not only will they not do anything, they might even try to help her deal with her troubles.

Speechless, Little Milk Cake glanced at its silly host who was focused on following the plot and completing tasks. It secretly resolved that its host was always clueless and it would have to rely on its divine assistance to get things done!

Although Chu Yu knew that her going there would be of no use, she still listened to Xiao Naigao's advice and got up to look for the person.

Hearing the princess get up, Yingqi hurriedly stepped forward, "Princess, you're awake. This servant will help you change your clothes."

Where is my brother?

Yingqi paused for a moment before realizing she was referring to His Majesty.

"Your Highness, His Majesty is handling state affairs in the study next door."

"I'm going to find my brother."

As Yingqi helped her put on her dress, she said softly, "Princess, His Majesty doesn't like to be disturbed when he's in his study. Would you like me to accompany you to the garden for a while?"
