Author’s Note: This is an experimental sort of thing where letters, official documents, and diary entries may be chapters. Due to their short nature, they will always be released with a regular length chapter. Consider them “bonus” things.

Shortly after the incident, my son asked permission for me to allow him to marry Li Changyu. With respect to our friendship, I refused him. Though I do not question the sincerity and depth of my son’s feelings for him, I fear for your boy’s safety should he turn of age and be within the Imperial City. Being an omega is a risk in and of itself, and it is not out of turn to say that Li Changyu is unlike any normal omega. I am afraid that puts him at an even greater danger within these walls.
As you very well know, the riches and privileges of being in the Royal Family come with heavy burdens. I understand that like all the Li’s, your son too needs freedom and to not be bound by the constraints of these politics. That is why I will finally grant your request to have Li Changyu train in the military.
You will be promoted to General, and Li Changyu will formally be conscripted to train for a year. He will serve at the Northern Border for seven years. All expenses for heat suppressing herbs will be provided by the treasury, and I will trust your discretion on assigning someone to aid him, be it his Brothers or other trusted officials, should he run into trouble. Expect my edict within the week.
It is my promise, both as Emperor and friend, that Li Changyu will be regarded as a soldier despite his status and eligible for all titles and promotions should he prove worthy of them. I appreciate counting him amongst the loyal soldiers serving my nation, and I look forward to seeing how far he can go.
Emperor Jin Zhan Long
Oh, finally a father emperor that seems decent in a novel! The story keeps on getting interesting and now even the first prince seems suspicious. Thanks for the updates. Hoping for more early updates!
I am glad you are enjoying the story! And yes, Father Emperor…is kinda okay. I will be honest, there are no real pure people in this story.
Except Julong.
Li Julong is a precious little bean.
A seemingly good emperor… I read so many novels where the emperor is an idiot, easily manipulted or downright evil that I’m half expecting it to be just a mask… please don’t let it be 🥲
No, JXY is a bit manipulated right now, but as explained, it’s from his accident.
Wow JX did try to marry LC back then! I can’t wait for him to get his memory back. You got your soul mate back.. Loving this story so far.
BOY WAS THIS CLOSE TO SEALING THE DEAL WITH A KISS but he got robbed.
So so close. He took responsibility. 😢
Humm now im so curious about the dog, the previous emperor and the memory loss.
Thanks for the chapter!
Good! You should be suspicious of EVERYONE!
A smart emperor..he knows the danger of the Palace..(゜o゜;
Now I like Father Emperor
