Chapter 1264: Chapter 21: The Emperor Turns into a Dog

At the Empress Dowager’s place, when the Empress Dowager saw Wanzi holding a pomegranate to give her, she was very pleased and beckoned for Wanzi to come to her embrace.

"Grand Empress Dowager, this is for you." Wanzi lifted the pomegranate, saying.

"Wanzi is the most obedient. Thank you, Wanzi." Tianmiao kissed the Princess’s forehead, took the pomegranate, and handed it to Lianhua to peel and put on a plate.

"Grand Empress Dowager, Happy is clever. She can paint by herself." The Princess, boasting like showing off a treasure, gestured.

"So clever, huh?" The Empress Dowager looked at the little dog standing at their feet with a smile.

"Yes, yes, Grand Empress Dowager, Father came to see me and Mother yesterday. Father even held me." The Princess happily shared her joy with Tianmiao.

"Oh? Your father came to see you? Did he bring you any gifts?" Tianmiao asked.

The Princess was taken aback, thought for a moment, and shook her head, "No."

The Emperor was stunned, only to realize that yesterday he was eager and went straight to the Empress’s palace but didn’t bring anything! This is really inappropriate. Next time, he must bring lots and lots of things for his daughter!

"Do you still like your father then?" The Empress Dowager issued a soul-searching question, and then saw with the corner of her eye the dog’s tail bristling. Silly dog!

"Still like him! Father coming to see me is the best gift." The Princess’s childish voice rang out.

The Emperor’s heart at this moment was full of warmth, almost overflowing.

Ah, why do I have such a lovely daughter, but I didn’t cherish her before. I’m such a fool!

The Emperor almost cried tears of joy, along with profound guilt and reflection.

After playing with the Empress Dowager for a while, the Princess wanted to return because she wanted to have dinner with the Empress.

"Go then, when you want to come and play with Grand Empress Dowager, bring Happy along." Tianmiao patted the Princess’s small head kindly.

"Okay, Grand Empress Dowager, I’ll show you Happy’s paintings next time." The Princess nodded.

"Alright, go on then." Tianmiao smiled and nodded as well.

The Princess was a bit tired after playing all day, and Lianhua carried her on the way back to the palace. The Emperor followed with his short little legs, thinking about what to bring for the Princess the next time he returned to human form. He must search thoroughly through his private treasury. I wonder if the Princess has started learning the zither; last time someone offered a zither made of some special material, supposedly with excellent sound quality. That should be given to the Princess. Oh, also, give her more calligraphy and painting supplies to play with her in the future...

Ah, spit! No! Never again want to turn into a dog. When I become human again, I’ll teach my daughter to write and paint.

The Emperor thought deeply, then came to his senses, realizing there was nobody ahead.

Huh? Where did Lianhua and the others go? Why did they walk so fast?

The Emperor quickened his short legs to try to catch up.

But the next moment, he was suddenly grabbed by a pair of hands.

"Where did this dog come from?" A young eunuch caught Happy, asking in confusion.

"I don’t know, hey, it’s a bit chubby. How about we eat dog meat hotpot tonight?" Another eunuch’s eyes lit up as he spoke.

All the hair on the Emperor stood up.

Dog meat hotpot?

Did these servants want to eat him?

Don’t they know who he is? He’s the Emperor...oh, he’s the Princess’s pet dog!

How dare they think of eating him?

"Sure, but maybe he’s being raised by someone, right? Is it okay to eat like that?" The eunuch who caught Happy frowned.

"Check if there’s any dog tag on its neck; if not, let’s eat it." The other eunuch said.
