He didn’t understand the meaning of such a dream, but if one were to look solely at the scenes in the dream, he had probably dreamed of the Yaochi in the immortal realm.
Lotuses, with their quality of emerging from the mud unstained, have always been admired by the immortal realm and have become a symbol of transcendence.
Some even believe that lotuses can assist in achieving immortality and should be planted in abundance.
Therefore, the emperor was not averse to lotuses and would often instruct people to place some lotuses in Qingxu Hall.
If one were to say that the Crown Prince, to cater to his preferences, sent him a lotus-shaped jade piece, it wouldn’t be surprising. But the fact that it was sent today…
The emperor had dreamed of lotuses last night, and he had not mentioned it to anyone.
Could it be that this was what Xun Yuanbai was talking about, that the Crown Prince was actually able to help him cultivate immortality?
The emperor thought this way, and his originally complex mood suddenly became quite joyful, and a smile appeared on his face, “Where did you get this from, and why do you want to give it to me?”
The Crown Prince was initially flustered but calmed down considerably upon seeing the kind smile on the emperor’s face. He began to lie earnestly, “To be honest with Your Majesty, I obtained this item by chance. After seeing it, I felt a sense of tranquility and grew very fond of it.”
“However, as much as I like it, I felt that this item should be given to Your Majesty. So, I took the liberty of presenting it to you. I wonder if Your Majesty likes it.”
Indeed, everything was as the Celestial Master had said!
The Crown Prince also had an affinity with the immortal realm, but for the sake of his father, he had forcefully cast it aside.
His son was very filial!
The emperor was delighted, his smile grew wider, and his face was filled with affection, “I like it very much. The Crown Prince has shown great thoughtfulness.”
He then instructed the officials standing in the hall, “With the Crown Prince overseeing the country, all matters, big or small, must go through his hands. You must also do your best to assist and support the Crown Prince.”
The emperor was not only not angry but also very happy?
Such a precious piece of mutton fat jade had unexpectedly appealed to the emperor, who was currently advocating frugality?
Tang Zhichuan and the others were puzzled and even greatly shocked.
But the emperor’s complete delegation of authority to the Crown Prince was something they welcomed, and they hurriedly knelt again to respond.
The Crown Prince also went from shock to joy and bowed to express his gratitude.
A short while later, everyone withdrew from Zhongyuan Palace.
The Crown Prince intentionally slowed down, walking alongside Song Jingyun.
“How did you know that my father would like the jade piece so much?” The Crown Prince was still puzzled.
“Intuition,” Song Jingyun replied.
The Crown Prince, “……”
Was it that hasty?
But regardless of the reason, the current situation was gradually improving.
Many things, as long as the outcome is satisfactory, why bother to get to the bottom of it?
The Crown Prince chuckled and caught up with Song Jingyun, who had already walked far ahead.
May arrived, and the weather grew warmer.
After more than half a month of long-distance travel, Jiang Youcheng and Liu Shi finally reached the capital.
Traveling with them was Jiang Chunyu.
Jiang Chunyu had grown into a sturdy young man, taller than Jiang Youcheng by a bit. When he saw Jiang Mixia and Song Jingyun, his smile was so wide that it almost reached his ears.
“I’ve never left home before, but when I heard that Uncle and Aunt were coming to the capital to visit Sixth Sister and Brother-in-law, I pestered them, insisting that they bring me to the capital to see the world.”
Although Jiang Chunyu said this, anyone with discerning eyes could see that he was there to accompany Jiang Youcheng and Liu Shi, helping to take care of them along the way.
Jiang Mixia and Song Jingyun understood this, but they didn’t expose it.
