A Cutie Spoiled by Her Seven Uncles
Chapter 124: Your Majesty, what have you done to anger the heavens?

Chapter 124: Chapter 124: Your Majesty, what have you done to anger the heavens?

Xiaosuisui was panicked at first, but she gradually calmed down.

From the moment she became a princess, His Majesty, my brother... No! He’s His Majesty, my adoptive father now.

From the moment she became a princess, His Majesty, her adoptive father, had held her and told her with countless admonitions that from then on, she was Princess Changrong Shunhe, a lucky talisman of Great Han, a little Lucky Star. In the future, she would not have to kneel before anyone, not even him, His Majesty, her adoptive father.

She had been scared silly by Zhao Chunxiang at first, so she hadn’t remembered. But now, seeing Captain Wang’s demeanor, with Li San pressing down on her and forcing her knees to bend slightly, and as the sky suddenly darkened with ominous clouds pressing down, only then did she remember those words.

So, she instinctively tensed her legs, and her knees refused to bend even a fraction further.

Heaven and earth changed color, and dark clouds pressed down. Everyone looked up at the sky in bewilderment.

The National Master, who was seated below the young Emperor and discussing how to deal with Nanjiang, suddenly began to make calculations with his fingers.

The young Emperor blinked, a flicker of familiarity crossing his mind at the sky’s abrupt change.

"This change in heaven and earth... the heavens are angry! Your Majesty, have you perhaps done something sacrilegious to provoke the heavens?"

The young Emperor looked at him, puzzled.

The National Master’s face grew increasingly pale as he continued his calculations, his bloodless face eventually lifting to look at the young Emperor.

BOOM!

A dry clap of thunder echoed—merely a prelude. Lightning flickered, suspended in the sky, but had yet to truly strike.

Hearing this thunderclap, the young Emperor, a beat later, finally remembered something.

He abruptly turned to the National Master. "What did you just say? The heavens are angry?"

With his pale face, the National Master looked at the young Emperor with utmost solemnity.

"Your Majesty, a similar Celestial Phenomenon occurred three days ago. At that time, I was investigating the situation concerning the Altar of Nanjiang and the Dragon Vein of our Great Han.

First, a Celestial Thunder descended from the sky. According to the Celestial Phenomenon observed then, more Celestial Thunders should have followed. However, for some unknown reason, the thunder suddenly ceased, and the sky returned to normal.

Later, approaching dusk, the sky again became abnormal, though only for a moment. All these signs indicate that the heavens are enraged, that someone has provoked the heavens! Your Majesty, ordinarily, common folk would not..."

"Where is... where is Suisui?"

The young Emperor ignored the chattering National Master, abruptly standing up and walking out.

Figures flickered in the trees as the secret bodyguards followed closely.

Meanwhile, Xiaosuisui, pressed down by Li San, stubbornly kept her little knees straight. I won’t kneel! I won’t kneel!

I just won’t kneel! Father Emperor said his words are the Imperial Decree. If I don’t listen, it’s defying the Imperial Decree, and I’ll be beheaded!

"Father Emperor told me not to kneel, so I won’t kneel to a malicious person like you!" Xiaosuisui shouted, struggling with all her might. It was unclear where she found the strength, but even as Li San used every ounce of his power to hold her down, she managed to lift her little foot, stomp hard on Li San’s instep, and wrench herself free from his grasp.

The dark clouds in the sky suddenly dispersed, revealing clear, sunny weather.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

How can the sky change its expression faster than one can flip through a book?

The National Master hurriedly made calculations with his fingers again. The Celestial Phenomenon these past few days is too abnormal, simply unprecedented!

Did His Majesty anger the heavens, or has some scandal occurred within the royal family? The National Master’s heart was in turmoil...

As soon as the young Emperor left the National Master, he immediately ordered the secret bodyguards to disperse and find Xiaosuisui.

Soon, the secret bodyguard from whom Xiaosuisui had snatched the scimitar came to report, "Your Majesty, the Princess is at the archway of the second courtyard. She..."

The secret bodyguard hesitated. Should I report the Princess’s situation immediately? Or... should I report it *immediately*?
