"I'm going!" Emperor Wu stormed off.
"Your Majesty, where are you going?" Gao asked curiously as he helped Emperor Wu change into a casual outfit.
"Xiao Wu must be devastated now. My stupid son abandoned her; I can't live with that!" Emperor Wu put a hand to his chest.
Gao thought, "I think you're just looking for an excuse to see Lady Ling…"
Of course, he didn't dare to say that out loud.
Just then, fireworks rose above the south gate of the city and turned into two words: Birthday girl.
"Your Majesty, look!" Gao pointed at the sky.
Emperor Wu's face darkened. "So, I was right! He really is celebrating Zuo Qingluan's birthday! How can I have such a promiscuous son?!"
Gao cleared this throat, finding that description a little over the top.
Meanwhile, in the Zuo family.
Zuo Qingluan stood in the center of the crowd, and her otherworldly beauty made her look like a fairy.
