Chapter 1316: Prince Li’s Extra: Cold-Hearted

Chapter 1316 Prince Li’s Extra: Cold Feelings

Murong Kai’s arrival aroused Su Jinxuan’s possessiveness towards Ah Man, so Ah Man, who was originally going to go to find her father right away, was able to get away only in the afternoon.

Ah Man had a severe headache just thinking about going to find her father. She could not get her mind right. When she saw him, she thought of the past, and then, naturally, she felt resentful.

This time, Ah Man could not wait on the road that her father had to take when he went to and from the court, because the morning court had already been dispersed.

She finally mustered up the courage and went to Concubine Xu’s palace.

It is said that during this period, as long as the emperor did not deal with state affairs, he would stay in Concubine Xu’s palace. The emperor gave her rewards almost every day. The servants in the palace secretly said that the emperor’s favor for Concubine Xu had surpassed the favor of the queen at the beginning. Of course, no one dared to say such words in front of Ah Man.

Ah Man mustered up her courage to enter Concubine Xu's palace. When she entered Concubine Xu's Changyi Palace, Ah Man did not dare to look at her for a second, fearing that her father would treat her like his mother did back then. Everything in the palace was carefully arranged by him. If she really saw such a scene, she would go crazy and completely lose her mind.

Unlike Concubine Zhu, who was extremely proud at this time, Concubine Xu was humble. Seeing her coming, she quickly stood up to greet her.

"Where is my father?" Ah Man was too lazy to talk to Concubine Xu. She had long known Concubine Xu's deep affection for her father, and she also knew that she insisted on entering the palace despite the opposition of her family and the disgust of her father. She thought it was just her wishful thinking. After enduring the long loneliness, her heart would cool down, but she did not expect that there would be a day when her wish would come true.

But her wish came true because her mother broke up with her father because her mother had passed away.

So, even if she had a little pity for Concubine Xu before, now that she saw her again, that emotion had long disappeared.

"He's lying on the bed." Concubine Xu said softly, and she didn't forget to salute Ah Man. Although she was favored now, Ah Man was the legitimate princess appointed by the previous emperor, so she had to be polite, otherwise she wanted to whip her with a whip, but it was just based on her mood.

"Why are you still lying at this time? Are you not feeling well?" Although she was angry in her heart, when she knew that he was still lying, her worry came before her resentment.

She knew her father's daily routine best. He was strong and seldom rested at noon, let alone sleeping until this time in the afternoon.

"He's fine." Concubine Xu replied reluctantly. It was not that she wanted to hide something, but because the emperor was always lying here with her, even if he didn't sleep, he was lying on the bed. She was just a servant, and she had to apologize if the emperor was unhappy.

Everyone thought that she, the favored concubine, would soar to the sky, and now she was envied by the whole palace, but no one knew that behind everyone's jealousy, she was just a maid who was slightly satisfied with the emperor.

But she couldn't tell anyone about this grievance, not even her own relatives.

Since she was in good health, Ah Man had no scruples. She walked into Concubine Xu's bedroom in two or three steps and shouted to the person on the bed: "Father, I need your approval for something."

"What's the matter? You just came to me this morning, and now..." Su Jing's words were full of anger. No one knew that his face was not as cold as his voice when he was lying on the bed.

"There are some things I can't decide."

"I really let you take full responsibility for the affairs of the queen's funeral. As long as it is about the queen's funeral, you can make the full decision without asking me."

Ah Man listened to her father's voice and her heart sank to the bottom again. What a cold-hearted man he was. After his wife died, he was too lazy to even do superficial work.

"Since your father has said so, please don't punish me if I have overstepped my authority." Ah Man felt that there was nothing more to say to her father. Since he had said that, she would use chicken feathers as a token of authority to release her uncle and cousin.

Ah Man left angrily after she finished speaking. Concubine Xu had heard that Princess Jiaoyang was arrogant and spoiled, but she didn't expect her to be like this.

She walked into her bedroom trembling with fear. Seeing that the emperor had already sat up from the bed, she hurried forward, put on his shoes, and quietly pleaded for Ah Man.
