Chapter 733: Something on my mind and no appetite
Xiao Jingyi strode in and saw Emperor Hongde, Empress Luan Xiying, and Xiao Jingyu's family of three sitting around the table having breakfast.
Just looking at the scene of this family of three sitting around having a meal in front of him made Xiao Jingyi feel hatred in his heart!
The warm family sitting here should be me, my mother, and my father, the late crown prince who unfortunately died young while trying to save this good uncle!
But now… the prince’s biological father had died early;
The Crown Princess's biological mother was trapped in a small Buddhist temple, depressed all day long, and filled with hatred;
And I…I was supposed to be the next crown prince;
He was supposed to be the future emperor of Jingyue Kingdom!
But now?
Now he is just an idle prince who depends on others for his livelihood and has no power or influence.
Whether the prince’s father was willing to die early or not... he himself didn’t know!
Mother is unwilling:
I am even more unwilling to accept this!
Xiao Jingyi told himself in his heart: Be patient a little longer!
Be patient a little longer!
Everything that belongs to you must be taken back!
Didn’t he snatch away the peerless beauty Leng Rongyue last night?
The beautiful cold lady who was betrothed to his own son by his good uncle the emperor should have been settled in his Chengbi Villa by his men now!
In the future, I will not let any of these enemies who have taken away everything from me go!
Xiao Jingyi looked at Xiao Jingyu who was eating the soup dumplings in small bites, and a strong and extremely proud feeling suddenly emerged in his heart——
Xiao Jingyu, you are only worthy of eating a small soup dumpling!
When you find out that your future little princess has become my person...what will you do then?
Will you go crazy?
Will die?
Or it is better to live a miserable life than to die... One day in the future, will you crawl on your face before me and Leng Rongyue, the new emperor and empress, and beg for your life?
Xiao Jingyi imagined the moment when he would ascend the throne and be proud of himself...
Just imagining it, you will instantly feel extremely comfortable and refreshed physically and mentally!
However, I still need to be patient for a while...
Xiao Jingyi skillfully put on a warm and respectful smile on his face, walked up to the table, and respectfully saluted Emperor Hongde and Empress Luan Xiying, "Nephew pays respects to the Emperor's uncle and aunt!"
Knowing clearly that the warm smile on this face and the admiration shown were all fake, how could Emperor Hongde not be sad...
It seems that no matter how well as an uncle he treats the only offspring left by his royal brother, he cannot warm his heart that is resting on the dragon throne!
That’s it! That’s it!
For the sake of my royal brother, I should be as tolerant as possible towards this nephew!
As long as his ambition can't hurt Jingyue's country, let him live well!
Emperor Hong De was thinking in his heart, but his face remained calm. He smiled and nodded at Xiao Jingyi.
Queen Luan Xiying treated him with warmth as always.
"Yier, no need to be polite! Come and sit down!
You came to the palace so early, have you had breakfast yet?"
Xiao Jingyi really came to the table and sat down like an obedient junior, and said with a smile: "My nephew has never used it before!
Today is a day off, so I don't have to attend the morning court. I thought I'd go to the palace early to greet my uncle and aunt, and have breakfast with them!"
"Yier is thoughtful!
Auntie Huang will have some fresh food sent over right away!"
As Queen Luan Xiying spoke, she was about to give orders to the palace maids.
After hearing this, Xiao Jingyi hurriedly stopped him, "No need, Auntie Huang, there are still so many on the table, and brother Yu hasn't used them all yet. It's just right, brother Yu and I can use some more together, there will be enough on the table!"
Palace servants had already brought up bowls, plates and jade chopsticks.
As Xiao Jingyi spoke, he picked up a small soup dumpling and started eating.
No matter how you look at it, Xiao Jingyi behaves like a younger generation who is very close to the Emperor and Empress' family and does not do anything out of the ordinary.
Xiao Jingyu finished a small soup dumpling, put down the chopsticks in his hand, and said lightly: "I'm done, enjoy your meal, my royal brother!"
Xiao Jingyi had just stuffed half a soup dumpling into his mouth when he heard Xiao Jingyu say that he was full...
Xiao Jingyi forgot to chew the soup dumpling he had just put into his mouth!
Is he going to eat it alone while the three of them watch?
After chewing and swallowing the soup dumpling in his mouth, Xiao Jingyi wanted to put down his chopsticks and stop eating...
Anyway, he didn't rush into the palace just for this breakfast.
At this time, Queen Luan Xiying picked up the serving chopsticks on the table, picked up a small soup dumpling, and put it in the small bowl in front of Xiao Jingyi, "Yier, we are all done eating, just eat slowly and eat more!"
"Thank you, Auntie!"
Xiao Jingyi had no choice but to eat the soup dumpling again.
Seeing that Queen Luan Xiying was about to bring over another small soup dumpling, Xiao Jingyi quickly put down his chopsticks and reached out to cover the small bowl in front of him.
"Thank you, auntie, I've found it useful!
On weekdays, my nephew doesn’t have breakfast before the morning court.
I would go back and use some after the morning break.
I'm used to this!
I don't feel hungry at all at this hour.
This is all I need. I can’t eat any more!”
It wasn't that Xiao Jingyi couldn't finish the third soup dumpling, he was just worried about something and had no appetite at all, let alone the mood to sit here and chat about family matters and enjoy breakfast!
