Chapter 104 - Extra 1 – "Do you have someone you admire?"

In the past, Rong Ting thought that his Emperor Father had no interests or hobbies. Oh, that's not right, he did have a hobby: deceiving Empress Mother.

When they returned from modern times, Rong Ting discovered that his Emperor Father suddenly became very unstable!

When something is unusual, there must be a cause1.

He recalled what Empress Mother said. When people were in love, they would involuntarily want to dress beautifully. He thought, although men and women didn't follow the same line of thinking, everyone was human, so they must be more or less the same in big matters. Emperor Father... could he be in love?

Rong Ting knew that he was being very selfish. He didn't know whether Empress Mother had found a boyfriend over there. In any case, he couldn't see her, so he'll just assume that Empress Mother didn't have a boyfriend!

Emperor Father wanted to fall in love? Wanted to be together with someone else? Unless Rong Ting was dead, or he was blind and deaf, don't even think about it!

Eleven-year-old Rong Ting was busy every day. He was no longer satisfied with listening to the Grand Tutor's teachings. He remembered a sentence Empress Mother used to say: learn by doing2. Just like, if he hadn't transmigrated to modern times, how would he know the price of vegetables? How would he know the price of rice?

He had to know what things were like among the people. He wanted to know whether the people could afford to eat. Don't even think about trying to fool him. Before he ascended to the throne, he still had a lot of time to practice.

Of course, when the father and son were chatting happily, Rong Ting would frequently stab Rong Heng with a sentence. "When I hide my identity and walk among the people, it is to understand the sentiments of the people, not to fall in love under a sock puppet3."

Rong Heng: "..."

This will probably become his dark history.

"Don't say these strange things in front of other people." Rong Heng felt his head hurt.

Why? Rong Ting relied on himself being an innovator4, and on several occasions of extreme anger, he even called one minister a hillbilly.

"Emperor Father, will you not listen to Empress Mother's words? You don't care about those ministers, and now they submit memorials nearly every day, asking you to pick a crown princess consort for me! I'm only eleven this year; I'd still be in elementary school in modern times, and they're urging me to fall in love?" Rong Ting grew angrier the more he thought about it. "I have no thoughts on this sort of thing right now. I'm only in elementary school; elementary students who have an early romance will have their parents called in!"

These ministers were too demented, right?

Wanting to introduce a girlfriend to eleven-year-old him? If this were modern times, they would be scolded to the point even their own mother wouldn't recognize them.

Rong Heng was also very helpless. "I rejected them all. But you can't stop others from doing this kind of thing. They say their pieces; I just don't listen."

"Empress Mother said I can only consider those things after I turn eighteen." Rong Ting didn't actually treat Song Yuan's words as an imperial decree; it was just that he truly didn't have those kinds of thoughts. "In any case, I will not think about it before I am eighteen. Love before the age of eighteen is an early romance."

"I know."

The ministers were immensely satisfied with Rong Ting, especially the Grand Tutor. In the past, they only praised him for his talents and intelligence. But now, things were different; he couldn't wait to stuff Rong Ting with all his teachings.
