Chu Zhiyuan slowly nodded.
The Emperor's Sword is so powerful; how could it not influence its holder?
No one had ever mentioned this issue to him, as it was considered taboo.
Neither Chu Qingyan nor Chu Qingfeng, no matter how close they were, would speak of this.
Even Concubine Rou never brought it up.
Perhaps Concubine Rou hadn't noticed the issue.
Or perhaps the Emperor wasn't greatly affected.
Lady Shu looked at him and said, "Princely Heir, you're still young. Seize the time to enjoy life while you're young. Don't rush to inherit the Emperor's Sword. Once you have it, life loses its joy."
Lady Shu shook her head: "There's only day after day of court affairs, endless stacks of documents, and any spare time must be spent on cultivation. There's not a moment of leisure. What's the point of living?"
Chu Zhiyuan said, "Does Your Ladyship think the Emperor finds no joy, rather than enjoying it all?"
