CHAPTER 232 (2): SLAP TO THE FACE
Grand Tutor Liu put down his wine cup and walked to the middle of the main hall . He bowed towards Yun Ruofeng to pay his respects before speaking . “This official is an aged man and can’t write charming poems anymore . Instead, this old man will embarrass myself and paint a picture . However, will Prince Yun please promise this humble official something if I paint well?”
Yun Ruofeng smiled . “Grand Tutor Liu, just say it . ”
“Prince Yun, this humble official has been staying in the imperial palace for a few months already . My daughter is 10 years old, and has been calling for this humble official every day . This humble official only has one daughter who was born when I was already old, so I truly miss her . If this humble official paints well, will you allow me to return to my residence to see my daughter . I promise to return after a few days . ”
When Su Xi-er heard this, her hand that held the wine pot froze, and her lips pursed together tightly . How dare Yun Ruofeng hold Grand Tutor Liu captive in the imperial palace!
At this moment, Pei Qianhao spoke . “This Prince has heard of Grand Tutor Liu being lauded as the leading figure in the literary world, even in Beimin . As a court official, you should be able to return to your residence every day . Why have you stayed in the imperial palace for months without seeing your ten-year-old daughter?”
His voice was calm, but each word was full of interrogation .
Yun Ruofeng looked at Grand Tutor Liu calmly . He purposely chose to wait until now to mention this . Didn’t you always protect Ning Lianchen? Isn’t this Prince kind in allowing you to always stay at the Imperial Palace to keep His Majesty company?
Yun Ruofeng smiled and replied . “Grand Tutor Liu has always accompanied His Majesty to teach him the ways of governance . This Prince was so satisfied with the amount of progress that His Majesty has made that I forgot that Grand Tutor Liu had a ten-year-old daughter . You can return to your residence tomorrow . Don’t worry about hurrying back either; just take your time and stay a few more days at your residence . ”
After he finished talking, Yun Ruofeng raised his wine cup . “This Prince toasts to everyone . Everyone, please drink as much as you can tonight; don’t leave without getting drunk!”
The leaders of each country raised their cups along with the officials of Nanzhao, draining their drinks together with Yun Ruofeng .
Only Pei Qianhao took a light sip . He turned his head to look at Su Xi-er and put down his wine cup . “Are you tired after standing for so long?”
