Chapter 1089 - Ascending the Throne Together

Gu Bailu wasn’t overthinking it.

Many people heard that the emperor had issued a decree to appoint a crown prince, and that the crown prince would ascend the throne when court opened. The first thing they thought of... was that they could eat something good again.

The palace banquet this time definitely wouldn’t be like the one on New Year’s Eve, which was full of cold, tasteless dishes.

This was simply a joyous matter for the nobles.

After the imperial edict was issued, Prince Zi’s residence was full of people as carriages full of gifts were sent over every day.

However, Gu Bailu said in amusement, “I’m afraid that Prince Zi’s residence already has the most popular gifts.”

What kind of gifts could the people give? They were all antiques and ornaments.

However, some of the noble families were scraping the barrel with these.

They couldn’t take out the latest fashion or beautiful makeup.

Of course, some sent spirit pills and medicine, but Prince Zi didn’t lack those.

But getting gifts was always good. There was no worry that Feng Qingtian and Gu Bailu wouldn’t accept them.

Who were they? They would be the biggest figures in the country in the future.

When he was still Prince Zi, these people still had to take the emperor into consideration and didn’t dare give gifts openly, while Feng Qingtian also had to consider the impact.

But now... there was nothing to worry about at all.

More importantly, Gu Bailu planned to take advantage of this matter to empty out the pockets of the noble families. She wanted to see what they would do when the time came.

There were no craftsmen or entertainment to be had. She wanted to see how mighty these experts could be and how they would enjoy themselves.

Take your spiritual power with you and go cultivate and play with yourself.

Although the emperor had sincerely decided to abdicate, Feng Qingtian still postponed the coronation. It wasn’t like the throne could run away, after all.

He was unwilling to ascend the throne until Gu Bailu completed her one-month confinement.

It would be meaningless if he didn’t ascend the throne with Gu Bailu.

The little prince – oh, no, he should be called the little crown prince now – grinned and said, “Then let’s just do it in one go. Once I can walk, the three of us can ascend the throne together. That’ll be fun.”

Feng Qingtian looked at him in disdain. “Dream on.”

Who wanted to ascend the throne with him? In any case, if they waited until he could walk, it would take at least half a year.

“Father, mother, it’ll be more fun if our family of three ascends the throne together. I definitely won’t take half a year. I’ll definitely be able to walk in a month,” the little crown prince promised solemnly. “Mother, think about how beautiful that scene would be. You’ll hold my hand and I’ll hold my father’s... You’ll wear a long, phoenix robe. It’ll be like a wedding...”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Gu Bailu thought about it seriously. It did sound pretty good.

It would be interesting to take her son with her and ascend the throne.

Feng Qingtian wondered if Lulu had been brainwashed by her talkative son.

“Mother, you’ve been with father for so long, but you never officially became his wife. Just nice, you can get married at the same time.” The little crown prince clapped his hands and giggled happily. “I can be the page boy... Yes, I’ll definitely be the most beautiful and handsome page boy in the six realms.”

Feng Qingtian threw him to the wet nurse. “Take him away. It’s time for him to sleep.”

“Father... I’m not sleepy yet. You should consider my suggestion. It’s really good. Only then will it be glamorous.”

The little crown prince was unwilling to be taken away. Even at a distance, his childish voice could still be heard.
