"Bao'er."
Emperor Yongning had never found it so difficult to handle a child before.
His previous seventeen sons were all well-behaved and sensible, never giving him much trouble. He had never experienced such a dark moment of heart-wrenching crying from a child as today.
He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, fearing that Jun Ning would cry herself hoarse; he wanted to immediately soothe her.
But despite his efforts to comfort her for a long time, it had little effect.
Liu Pin asked with concern, "Your Majesty, do you know why the princess is crying?"
In Liu Pin's view, there's always a reason why children cry, and trying to soothe without understanding the reason is useless. The root of the problem must be identified to be resolved perfectly.
When Emperor Yongning met Liu Pin's gentle gaze, the anger he had just felt with the Empress subsided a little, and he said, "Bao'er is crying like this because she recalled her mother."
