章 275: Old Acquaintances Meet

Emperor Jiawen was stunned, and he jumped to his feet. "What? Didn't they say it would take a while longer? Why did he arrive so suddenly?"

They weren't prepared yet!

Eunuch Min wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Your Majesty, I don't know either! Wha-what should we do?"

What to do? What else can we do?!

Emperor Jiawen hurried forward. "Of course, I'll go forward and receive him personally!"

The Empress followed suit when she heard that, and she looked at Rong Jin and Rong Qi. "Your Majesty! Your Majesty, the Crown Prince and I will join you!"

Emperor Jiawen thought about it and agreed. If more people came, the event would seem grander and more important.

The Empress and Crown Prince's statuses were a good fit too.

They hurried forward, their usually stoic faces revealing a hint of nervousness.

The others got to their feet when they saw Emperor Jiawen's reaction.
