Chapter 213 Someone who has the same opportunity as her
"Father!"
The second princess called out "Father" as soon as she entered, but there was no "Father" in the East Warm Pavilion, but a "Madam" whom she had never seen before. The three or four-year-old was still a little confused. She stood at the threshold and tilted her head to look at her beautiful sister.
Following behind was the third prince who had just learned to walk.
The third prince was held under the armpits by the wet nurse and was not let down until he stepped over the threshold.
The wet nurse was obviously unaware that there was a distinguished person inside, so she knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "Greetings, distinguished person."
"I'm not a noble person." Lin Xuxi put down the book and sat up straight.
Lin Xuxi knew exactly why the two had come. The emperor was still determined and wanted her to see their qualifications so that she could take one of them away.
But, it is really cruel of her to leave her parents at such a young age.
The second princess stood there, looking at her beautiful sister. Suddenly, she trotted over, but because she was young, she ran too fast and couldn't stop, and fell directly onto the edge of the chaise longue.
"Well--"
The little guy got hit.
"Be careful." Lin Xuxi supported the second princess. The moment her hand touched the child's, she knew that this person had a weak constitution. She could enjoy wealth and luxury, but she had little chance of cultivating immortality.
"Who are you? Are you the new queen?" The second princess looked at the beauty in front of her with her black eyes cutely, and even stretched out her hand to touch her face.
Lin Xuxi smiled and shook her head, saying, "I'm not the new queen, I'm just a passerby." But she still lowered her head slightly so that the second princess's hand could touch her face.
"So slippery." The second princess giggled when she touched it.
The wet nurse also came over carrying the third prince.
The chief eunuch was holding a swaddled baby, the Fourth Prince. He was puzzled as to why His Majesty had all the heirs in the palace come to hang out in front of this young lady.
However, he is a servant who will only do what His Majesty tells him to do.
"Yaaaaa." The Third Prince couldn't speak fluently yet, but he seemed to like Lin Xuxi very much. After all, even children like beautiful things.
Lin Xuxi reached out first and touched the baby in the cradle. When she touched the little fleshy hand, she frowned slightly and shook her head, seeming dissatisfied.
The eunuch had been observing the girl's expression and was a little surprised to see her shaking her head. Why would she shake her head just by being touched?
Finally, Lin Xuxi's gaze fell on the third prince. Just as she was about to reach out her hand, the emperor came in after bathing.
"How is it?" the emperor asked as he came in.
Lin Xuxi didn't answer immediately. Instead, she reached out and touched the Third Prince. Then, she smiled at the Emperor and shook her head, saying, "Good roots are rare. It's really hard to find."
Hearing this, the emperor frowned.
He was a rare talent, yet none of the three heirs had good roots! He now suspected that this person was deceiving him and was unwilling to take the child to cultivate immortality.
"Things about one's physique are rare to begin with. Thirty years ago, when the world was in turmoil, they were even rarer." Lin Xuxi reached out and tapped the Third Prince's brow, smiling, "He's a good one."
"What good?"
The emperor's eyes lit up. He had always thought that the third prince was smart, and now he thought it was indeed true!
Lin Xuxi shook her head but refused to speak immediately.
The emperor immediately understood what was happening and turned around and ordered, "Go and prepare the meal, everyone go back. Just leave the child here, I will take care of him." He reached out and took the fourth prince.
"Yes." The eunuch immediately retreated.
At this time, there were only two people and three children in the East Warm Pavilion. The three children were still babbling and probably didn't know what was going on.
"Is there really no one suitable?" The emperor sat down next to Lin Xuxi and asked, "These children are all excellent."
"Father."
With her father, the Second Princess no longer wanted this beautiful lady. Holding the edge of the chaise longue, she slowly walked to her father, hugged his legs, and refused to let go.
"Yes." The emperor was quite affectionate towards the children. He stroked the second princess's face and said with a smile, "Were you also that old when you left?"
"No, much older than her. Ten years old, he died at ten." Lin Xuxi extended her index finger, which was immediately grasped by the Third Prince. Smiling, she reached out and tapped the Third Prince's brow, saying, "He doesn't have the talent for cultivating immortals, but he's a good material for being an emperor." She turned and looked down on the Emperor.
As a mortal, she naturally couldn't make irresponsible comments about the crown prince, but she was a deity. A prophet, a deity admired by all, she naturally had the qualifications.
The emperor's eyes suddenly became eager when he looked at the third prince.
The second princess looked confused. Maybe she understood, or maybe she didn't.
Lin Xuxi glanced at the second princess and smiled at her.
The second princess immediately crawled into her father's arms and dared not look at the beautiful lady anymore.
"Good, good!" It wasn't as if nothing had happened. Suddenly, the emperor seemed to remember something and asked, "Extend life, how can I extend my life?"
"Give me the thing first." Lin Xuxi is not a fool.
Just as the two were about to exchange, the chief eunuch came in to greet them: "Your Majesty, the Imperial Master wishes to see you regarding an important matter!"
"Please come in." The emperor signaled the eunuch to come and carry the fourth prince away.
The remaining two children were also taken away.
But before leaving, the Second Princess glanced back at the newlyweds sitting on the chaise longue. Her eyes showed confusion and shock, but not confusion.
Lin Xuxi smiled at her: Since you also have the opportunity, then I will help you.
As long as she said this, the Third Prince would definitely become the emperor in the future. Since she knew this in advance, she knew what to do.
The second princess hastily withdrew her gaze and left with her wet nurse.
After the child left, the imperial teacher came in.
"Your Majesty, great joy!" The Imperial Master, beaming with joy, hurried in without even a whisk in hand. He knelt before the Emperor, then looked up to find the woman sitting there.
He was actually sitting so lazily on the chaise longue, and His Majesty didn't blame him. The Imperial Master was shocked, and he really didn't understand what this person was like.
Could it be that he is even more powerful than him?
"Grandmaster, what's the good news?" The emperor's attitude towards the Grandmaster was no longer so enthusiastic. He asked calmly, "It's not even dark yet, where did you come from to observe the stars?"
That's a funny question.
Lin Xuxi covered her mouth and did not laugh in front of the Imperial Master.
"Your Majesty." This reaction was within the expectations of the Imperial Master. He quickly knelt and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, just now I returned to the Taoist temple and unexpectedly found a tortoise shell."
"Turtle shell?" The emperor asked casually, obviously lacking interest.
"Yes." The Imperial Master took out the tortoise shell, presented it with both hands, and explained, "Your Majesty, do you know what the several horizontal lines on this tortoise shell mean?"
The emperor simply glanced at the tortoise shell. There were indeed a few lines of words scattered across it. He frowned and said, "If I knew, what would I need you for?"
This time, Lin Xuxi really couldn't help laughing out loud, "Puchi——" The emperor's mouth was no less than that of a laughing stock.
