Chapitre 77: What More Do You Want

"Well, there you are, Little Lady." Emperor Fadong raised his head from his propped up arm. He was originally discussing something with his Empress, until Li Xueyue walked into the throne room without waiting for a Eunuch to announce her presence.

She curtsied for him and was pardoned.

"What happened to you? Apparently you weren't in the Chrysanthemum Garden. Which room did you wander off to?" he teased with a sly smile on his face that irked Duke Li Shenyang. Meanwhile, Duke Li Taojun was pretending as if he had never seen Li Xueyue in his life—even though he was close to ruining her peaceful life half a week ago.

Li Xueyue faked a small laugh. "Your Majesty, you jest."

She smiled and explained, "I merely got lost on my way there."

"Really now?"

"Yes." Li Xueyue nodded.
