"Father, save me!" The little Emperor shouted.
After the curtains were lifted, a haggard middle-aged man was lying on the huge dragon bed, breathing weakly.
His face, which was supposed to be handsome, was now as shriveled as a corpse. His hands, which were exposed outside the blanket, were abnormally shriveled, as though there was only a layer of skin covering his bones.
On that shriveled face, only a pair of weak eyes moved slowly, looking at Ye Qingtang and the others in front of the bed.
"Father …" The little Emperor's eyes reddened involuntarily as he looked at his father. At this moment, he was no longer the willful and reckless Emperor. He was just a child.
"My child has offended you all. Please … forgive me … What … do you have … to ask me …" The Grand Imperial Sire spoke slowly. Every word was hoarse and extremely laborious.
Ye Qingtang looked at the Grand Imperial Sire with a complicated expression.
She had long heard that the Grand Imperial Sire was seriously ill, but she didn't know that it was this serious.
No wonder he had to abdicate and let his five-year-old son inherit the throne.
Compared to the mischievous little Emperor, the Grand Imperial Sire gave off a much gentler and more polite feeling.
Ye Qingtang didn't say much. She took out the jade pendant from her space ring and placed it in front of the Grand Imperial Sire.
When the Grand Imperial Sire's eyes landed on the jade pendant, a trace of shock flashed across his face. He struggled to lift his eyes and looked at Ye Qingtang in disbelief.
"You … you … how did you … get this jade pendant?"
"The Grand Imperial Sire indeed recognizes it. I'm here today because of this jade pendant," Ye Qingtang said slowly.
"I recognize it … how can I not recognize it … this … this is her … this is something that she carried with her all those years ago … but this … why is it in your hands? That year … I clearly … clearly saw her putting it somewhere else … "the Grand Imperial Sire said.
"To be honest, this jade pendant is related to my past. If the Grand Imperial Sire knows about it, please tell me," Ye Qingtang said.
"Wh … what?" The Grand Imperial Sire's eyes widened with difficulty. He sized Ye Qingtang up. "You … you're saying that this jade pendant … is related to your past?"
"This jade pendant was with me when I was still a baby. It was already there when my adoptive father found me," Ye Qingtang said as she looked at the Grand Imperial Sire.
The Grand Imperial Sire's eyes widened as he stared at Ye Qingtang. Suddenly, he shook his head.
"No, impossible … This jade pendant can't possibly be yours … Back then, she came to my Nine Nights Dynasty pregnant and assisted me to secure the throne. At that time … she was about to give birth, and she seemed to be worried about something. Thus, she asked me to hide her secretly, and after she gave birth, she placed the jade pendant on her child …" "That's right. That's right.
"Back then, I personally saw her place the jade pendant on her child. However, that child was a girl …"
A look of understanding flashed across Ye Qingtang's eyes. She suddenly turned around and removed her disguise, reverting to her original voice.
"I'm a prostitute."
She turned around and looked at the Grand Imperial Sire.
It was only for a moment.
When Ye Qingtang regained her looks, the Grand Imperial Sire and the dragon general were completely stunned.
"My … My Lord?!" Long Jiang's eyes widened in disbelief. Even Qu Xiangyang, who came along, gasped.
The young girl in front of them clearly had a seventy to eighty percent resemblance to their master in the past!
