The Imperial Robe That Was Seen

The regent instructed people to prepare some food, and made Xi Fu, who was glued onto Shao Qian, wait in the main hall, before he carried Shao Qian and returned to his bedroom.

"Imperial Uncle?" As Shao Qian was carried by the regent back to his bedroom, he revealed a confused expression on his face, "Weren't we going to eat?"

This body is only twelve years old, so you better not be thinking of doing anything, you beast.

Helian Jing Qi's hand, which had just set Shao Qian onto the bed, paused. Then, acting as if nothing had happened, he spoke, "It takes about an hour for the kitchen to prepare food, so how can we wait in the main hall? I also noticed that Xuan-er is tired, so I brought you here to rest on Imperial Uncle's bed."

Shao Qian sat on the bed, dodging Helian Jing Qi's hand and burrowing deeper into the covers, "Then I'll sleep for a while. Imperial Uncle, you can go do your work."

The regent really wanted to sleep with his little Emperor, but he also felt that he shouldn't pressure him too much. Right now, Xuan-er was still small, if he was pressured too much and ran away, what would this regent do?

Eh? That was also wrong. The entire Imperial Palace was under his control, where could Xuan-er run away to? At this moment, the regent was rejoicing without restraint at his previous actions. Back then, he had taken a lot of precautions. Even when his Imperial Brother was still alive, he had already began his preparations. It looked like he only had to wait for his treasure to arrive.

However, that little eunuch by Xuan-er's side really needed a beating.

"Xuan-er, take off your clothes before sleeping. Imperial Uncle still has something to do, but if anything happens, just call for me." Helian Jing Qi reluctantly headed out. His 'one step, yet looking back three times' behaviour caused blue veins to pop out on Shao Qian's forehead. Do you really wish to watch Zhen undress?

In the end, the regent still left, but didn't forget to lock the door when he did so. It wasn't that he was worried that someone in the residence might enter his bedroom without permission and disturb the little Emperor's sleep, but he was worried that the little Emperor wouldn't sleep and instead would run out to play.

When Shao Qian heard the door being locked, he threw a scornful glance at it. If he wasn't aware of this thing's natural disposition, he would've thought that he was being placed under house arrest.

Although, sleeping for a while was also good. After all, he had gotten up too early this morning. Since it was already noon, he was more or less exhausted.

Shao Qian took off his outer garment and laid down. He was half-asleep when it seemed like the door was opened and his inner garment were taken off. After that, he felt smooth skin pressing against his own. The familiar feeling made him disinclined to resist, even rubbing his cheeks on that person's smooth chest before going back to sleep.

The regent trembled because of his actions. The place Shao Qian had rubbed was his left chest, and coincidentally, that small nub…

Mm, the regent who had never touched other people, felt a strange feeling spread within his chest. He hugged the little Emperor, who was clinging tightly to his bare skin, but hurriedly loosened his grip when he saw him frown.

The little Emperor slept very soundly, but the person hugging the little Emperor was staring at him with wide eyes, unmoving, afraid that he would wake the little Emperor up if he moved even a bit. It was fortunate that the regent was a martial arts practitioner, otherwise, his whole body would become numb from lying down in such a stiff manner.

When Shao Qian woke up, it was already mid-afternoon. He dazedly rubbed his eyes and tilted his head up, feeling his hand pressing against foreign smooth skin. The person who had just awoken was somewhat confused, so when he became aware of the sensation beneath his hand, he lightly pinched it.

The expressionless regent's face changed. His long and dexterous arms reached out and somehow pressed the other onto his body. He lowered his head bit by bit and planted a kiss on Shao Qian's forehead, saying, "Naughty child, you start seducing Imperial Uncle as soon as you wake up."

At this moment, Shao Qian had completely woken up. He silently looked up at his elder, the evil person who went against the law, and questioned, "Imperial Uncle, why are you laying on nephew's bed?"

"This is Imperial Uncle's bed." The regent moved down from Shao Qian's forehead and placed a kiss on his nose. "Nephew won't allow Imperial Uncle to take a rest on his own bed?"

How could you be this shameless? Shao Qian lifted up the thin quilt, and upon seeing his bare, long and slender legs (that didn't exist), the blue veins on his forehead started throbbing once again. He innocently turned his head to look at the regent, asking, "Imperial Uncle, where are Zhen's inner garments?"

"How could you wear your inner garments to sleep? It's better to just take off those nuisances. Look, Imperial Uncle has never worn inner garments." The regent stared at the little Emperor from his long and slender legs (that didn't exist) up to his chest, and felt as though his nose was a bit itchy. The regent, who had accepted that he was very thick-skinned, calmly rubbed his nose and said, "Come, Imperial Uncle will help you change."

How can your face be so thick? How can you say these kinds of words without any expression? This face of yours, it would feel wronged if it didn't act as a city wall.

Shao Qian's small body couldn't stop the regent's claws, so rather than spending a lot of effort to dodge them, he might as well let the regent help him get dressed. Since there was someone here to serve him, why should he do it himself?

The regent took his inner garments and leisurely dressed his little Emperor. Although his expression looked serious, but he couldn't hide the fact that his hand would rub the other's body from time to time.

Shao Qian was angered until his teeth itched. He immediately slapped the regent's claw, "Imperial Uncle, if Imperial Uncle doesn't know how to serve people, then call my little eunuch over."

The previous little Emperor would have never dared to say these words to the regent. It was likely that even being glanced at would cause him to be frightened, and hurriedly lowered his head. But now, seeing this little Emperor tilting his chin up, coupled with an arrogant expression on his face; he liked this expression very much.

"How can that little eunuch be better than Imperial Uncle in serving you?" The regent scooped up the pale blue unlined long gown at the side, and upon seeing the colour of the clothes, it made him think of that woman with unbecoming behaviour, who he had mistakenly recognised as the person in his dream. The regent felt unhappy, how could that woman who had lost all sense of shame be mentioned in the same breath as his noble and threatening little Emperor?

"Is there anything wrong with Zhen's outer gown?" Shao Qian didn't know what kind of a daze this thing had entered whilst staring at his clothes. He only felt his companion in this world seemed to have become a bit foolish?

Shao Qian was somewhat worried. If he continued to be this foolish, when he met him upon his next reincarnation, would he have a filthy appearance, covered from head to toe in drool, and having a foolish smile on his face?

"This outer gown is too ugly, Imperial Uncle will give Xuan-er some other clothes." The more he looked at it, the uglier he felt it was. The regent immediately threw the outer gown onto the floor, before carrying the little Emperor who was only wearing inner garments to the cloakroom.

But since his residence didn't have any children, how could his cloakroom have any children's clothes? The regent's heart was vexed, it could be said that he lost his entire lifetime of face in front of this little Emperor today.

Inwardly, Shao Qian had already seen enough of his foolish appearance and leisurely opened his mouth, "Imperial Uncle, Zhen is hungry."

"Let's go have our meal." The regent picked up a black brocade gown and wrapped it around Shao Qian, "Your body is too thin, wear Imperial Uncle's clothes and warm up."

Because of the regent's careless movements, Shao Qian caught sight of a clothing that was golden in colour and mumbled, "What is that?"

You! You had already prepared to usurp the throne this early? Your mother! Don't think that Zhen didn't see that a dragon was sewn into that cloth. You dared to hide an imperial robe in this cloakroom, do you wish for nine degrees of your kindred to be destroyed?

Wrong, his nine degrees of kindred only included himself... Let's change the punishment.

The regent had also obviously seen the exposed imperial robe. This robe was made at the time when his Imperial Brother had suddenly passed away, but when it was finished, he didn't want to be Emperor anymore, and had tossed it into the cloakroom and left it alone. But, how could he be so unlucky that his little Emperor saw it? The regent's heart became weary, and his entire body turned rigid.

"Imperial Uncle," Shao Qian felt like a famous actor had possessed his body; when he said come, those tears would really come, "If... If Imperial Uncle wants to be the Emperor..."

"Don't think too much, Xuan-er," the regent retrieved the imperial robe, threw the black brocade robe on Shao Qian onto the floor, before wrapping the imperial robe onto his body in exchange, "Imperial Uncle got people to make this for you, I originally wanted to send it to the palace in a few days, but didn't expect that you would see it first here."

"But... according to the size, this robe is clearly for a grown up male." Did you think Zhen is that easy to trick? You are too naive.

"This is... this is what Imperial Uncle made for Xuan-er, to be worn after you grow up." The regent hugged the little Emperor bundled up in the imperial robe, wishing to cry in his heart but could shed no tears. How many holes did he actually dig for himself? Later tonight, he had to think carefully, what kind of careless mistakes he might make in the future.

Telling the twelve year old Emperor that this clothes was for him when he grew up, how would you interpret it?

"Really?" Shao Qian revealed a smiling face in an instant, "Thank you, Imperial Uncle."

"Xuan-er doesn't need to be polite with Imperial Uncle." In his heart, the regent secretly wiped away his sweat, if he could be deceived then that was good.

He carried the little Emperor to their meals, and when the little Emperor wasn't paying attention, he instructed a hidden guard to retrieve some clothes that the little Emperor could wear from the Imperial Palace.

Actually, let's not phrase it in such a nice manner, you were directly stealing. Obviously, being given the task to steal clothes, the hidden guard was somewhat stunned, only after a good while did he react and follow his master's order of 'retrieving' the clothes.

Shao Qian finished his meals and returned back to the Imperial Palace, by his side a regent accompanied him, pestering him endlessly.

Shao Qian felt that, concerning this person with the thickest face, if the regent dared to claim he was the second, then definitely, there would be no one that dared to claim to be the first.
