Liu Sisi and others hastily knelt down to welcome the arrival of His Majesty.
Before the group had fully knelt, His Majesty had already strode in from outside the hall and sat down directly in the chair in the center of the hall, with Di Yelei, who watched with an attentive gaze, and Eunuch Xiao following by his side.
Zhao Yuanlang cast a cold glance at Liu Sisi before hardening his face and calling out, "Rise."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Liu Sisi let out a sigh of relief; it seemed the Father Emperor was indeed in a foul mood.
However, Honored Princess Consort Luo was sweating profusely. The Emperor had not set foot in her quarters for several months, and she hadn't expected that, just after she had summoned Princess Ruyu to her side today, he had followed in hot pursuit.
"Zhao'er is here too? Come over here, to your Father Emperor," His Majesty beckoned to the Nineteenth Prince, his expression instantly softening as his gaze landed on his son, calling his nickname.
