Chapter 443: Chapter 397: Teasing can cost you your life, Susu saves the entire tribe with her own power_2

Shen Chuwei saw that and took the Night Pearl from beside the bed.

The light emitted by the Night Pearl was very soft and not blinding.

The two of them were in perfect sync.

Shen Chuwei, uncharacteristically taking the initiative, hooked her arm around Xiao Jinyan’s neck and offered a kiss.

Xiao Jinyan was clearly more excited than usual.

Fortunately, the two little ones slept exceptionally soundly tonight, not disturbing the couple’s intimate world.

As no one was there to bother them, the activity continued until the break of dawn...

After this night, Shen Chuwei learned one thing, she would rather do it four or five times a week than just once. The accumulated exercise was simply exhausting.

When all was quiet again, Xiao Jinyan tidied up and saw the person in his arms sleeping deeply, not even opening her eyes during the bath earlier.

Xiao Jinyan also closed his eyes contentedly and rested.

At this moment, Xiao Jinyan headed to the Conference Hall with a spring in his step.

On the way, Lu Zhaoyan saw Xiao Jinyan and couldn’t help but tease, "Your Highness, you seem to be in a good mood today."

Xiao Jinyan glanced at Lu Zhaoyan and responded indifferently, "Are you that idle?"

Upon catching Xiao Jinyan’s gaze, a chill involuntarily raced down Lu Zhaoyan’s spine, and he said awkwardly, "Not idle, not idle, I’m actually quite busy."

Xiao Jinyan withdrew his gaze, reflecting inwardly, was it that obvious?

Shen Chuwei was awakened by hunger, and when she opened her eyes, the figure of Xiao Jinyan was already gone from her side, and outside the window the birds chirped incessantly.

Having slept for so long, she still felt so tired that she couldn’t even bother to move her fingers.

In the past, it was said that women, who bleed every month without dying, were miraculous creatures.

Lately, she had come to realize that it was actually children who were truly miraculous, especially when they fell asleep in your arms. Just put them on the bed, and they would immediately open their eyes and look at you, that particularly lucid kind, time after time.

Now, she began to wonder, just what kind of creatures were men? To be able to strive for so long...

When Chun Xi came in and saw that Shen Chuwei was awake, she walked over with a smile, "Master, you must be hungry. Let’s get up for breakfast. I made your favorite steamed pork dumplings, deep-fried dough, and dumplings."

Shen Chuwei, upon hearing about food, mustered the last of her strength and reached out to Chun Xi, "Help me up to wash!"

After having breakfast, she regained some energy, but the thought of having to check the account book made her lie on the low table, too lazy to move.

At that moment, Eunuch Li came in smiling, "Crown Princess, the Emperor wants to see his granddaughter and sent me to fetch her."

Shen Chuwei got up from the couch adeptly and joined Eunuch Li by the crib, where she saw Susu happily playing with Xuetuan’s tail.

Eunuch Li bent down to lift Susu, and seeing someone pick her up, she smiled contentedly. Eunuch Li, delighted, said, "No wonder the Emperor dotes on the little Princess so much. I too am very fond of her."

Shen Chuwei gently reminded, "Then please be careful, Eunuch Li."

Eunuch Li chuckled, "Rest assured, Crown Princess. The little Princess is the Emperor’s treasure; I will be very cautious."

After Eunuch Li left, Shen Chuwei, looking at the account book in her hand, glanced towards Chun Xi, wishing Chun Xi could manage the accounts. Then she wouldn’t have to look at the account book and have her mind filled with how much silver was spent here or there.

She stared at the ledger until her head was spinning, then she heard Taotao making "yi ya yi ya" sounds and immediately burst into crying.

She hurriedly set down the ledger and approached the crib, only to see Taotao lying there, with tearful eyes.

Quickly, she picked up her son, soothing him while saying, "Did you cry because you woke up and didn’t see your sister? Your sister is with Grandfather Emperor."

Taotao sniffled a bit and seemed to stop crying upon seeing Shen Chuwei.

"How about I take you outside for a walk, huh?"

"If you don’t say anything, I’ll take that as your agreement."

Shen Chuwei, carrying Taotao, stepped out followed by two young eunuchs and two palace maids.

Since becoming the Crown Princess, the number of servants attending to her had doubled.

The sun was lovely today, with a gentle breeze.

Once outside, Taotao was excited as well, his handsome phoenix eyes curiously looking all around.

Thinking of the Empress, Shen Chuwei said to her son with a smile, "Every day, Grandmother comes to see you. This time, let’s go visit Grandmother."

Meanwhile, in the Imperial Study Room

When Eunuch Li arrived with Susu, the Emperor put aside his work. Before he could reach out, he saw Susu stretching her arms towards him, grinning and asking to be held.

The Emperor’s heart melted instantly; Susu was just too adorable.

"Grandfather Emperor hold."

The Emperor took Susu from Eunuch Li’s arms.

Susu, never having been in the Imperial Study Room before, curiously observed the unfamiliar yet imposing surroundings.

Her little hand touched something interesting, and looking down, she tried to pick it up.

The Emperor, looking down, saw his granddaughter interested in his jade pendant and unhesitatingly handed it to her, "Susu, this is a Dragon Pendant."

Susu held the jade pendant with both hands, curiously touching the dragon pattern on it.

Eunuch Li came in to report, "Your Majesty, the officials have arrived."

The Emperor hadn’t expected them so early and commanded, "Let them in."

After Eunuch Li left, a group of officials filed in noisily.

Having saluted, they were all stunned to see the baby in the Emperor’s arms. It was their first time witnessing the Emperor holding his grandchild at a meeting.

Though puzzled, they dared not voice their thoughts.

"Your Majesty, evidence of the Chunan King’s rebellion is conclusive. We ask that you pronounce his guilt soon."

"Your Majesty, the Chunan King is wholly loyal to Daxia and would never commit such disorderly acts. Please reconsider carefully."

The officials inevitably started arguing with each other.

Susu, holding the Dragon Pendant in one hand and lifting a memorial from the desk with the other, accidentally dropped it with a "plop" on the floor.

For a moment, there was silence, the officials all turning their gazes to the Emperor, only to see the little Princess sprawling on the Royal desk clutching the Jade Seal, scaring everyone pale.

The Emperor, far from angry, even helped move the Jade Seal closer to Susu.

When Susu grabbed what she wanted, she laughed happily.

The Emperor, seeing this, also smiled. But when he lifted his head to face the officials, all traces of his smile vanished.

"The Chunan King has great power and harbors treasonous intentions. We cannot be careless. Immediately take Our decree and arrest everyone in the Chunan King’s household."

The Emperor had barely finished speaking when Susu started crying, "wah wah," as if she had been frightened.

The Emperor panicked when his precious granddaughter began to cry and comforted her gently, "Susu, don’t cry, Grandfather Emperor isn’t scolding you."

But Susu couldn’t be consoled and continued to cry ceaselessly.

Seeing his precious granddaughter crying so heartbrokenly, the Emperor fretted, unable to soothe her tears no matter what he tried.
