Lin Yi instantly woke up, with all drowsiness dissipating, and ran straight to the little Emperor's sleeping chamber.
"My little treasured heart, you finally awoke. I've missed you to death."
After cooing and coddling for a while, the little Emperor gently pushed Lin Yi away. Did this rascal really need to exaggerate so much just for not seeing him for one night?
They couldn't even continue their endearments when the hurried footsteps of a eunuch approached.
"Your Majesty, the Empress has come to request an audience."
The Empress? So early in the morning, what does she want?
The little Emperor looked at Lin Yi with puzzlement, and Lin Yi, not knowing either, could only shake his head.
"Have the Empress wait outside the Imperial Study Room."
The little Emperor couldn't guess the Empress's intentions but got out of bed cooperatively, while Lin Yi helped him tidy his clothes.
