Jiang Ning left Crystal Frost Hall, and after asking the eunuch at the entrance, she went straight to the side hall to find the two children.
As she entered, she saw Li Hongyuan sitting next to the cradle, propping up his chin, tilting his head, and watching the sleeping boy and girl twins motionlessly.
He looked dazed and lost, his beautiful profile appearing rather silly.
"Your Highness, Lady Jiang is here," the palace maid reminded softly.
Li Hongyuan came to his senses and looked at her.
Jiang Ning nodded.
Li Hongyuan got up and walked over, "Is everything alright with Emperor Father?"
"It's nothing, just a few idle words."
"Then I'll have Sanli send you and the children back."
"Thank you." Jiang Ning paused, "Your Highness, I have a request."
"Speak."
Li Hongyuan's voice was cold.
