On the second day, the old emperor arrived with the empress. The Eleventh Prince and Jiamei came yesterday, so they didn't join today.
Qiao Mai had prepared food early because they were coming around mealtime, hoping to get a free meal.
In the past, when the emperor visited Lucky Garden, it might have been for the food. Now, he wanted to take a good look at this Immortal and verify his thoughts.
What Qingfeng said was one thing, but he only believed it when he heard it with his ears.
As soon as they entered Lucky Garden, the emperor followed the empress's example and held Yuan Jiaqi's hand, but he was shaken off.
Holding hands between women might be usual, but when two men do it, people might mistake it for something else, even if it is a friendly gesture.
Even if it were a romantic relationship between men, it would be too embarrassing for it to be the emperor.
Unbeknownst to the old emperor, he was rejected!
