A Foodie Transmigrated into the Palace-Chapter 876: Princess Hai Tang

Unacceptable!

It’s absolutely unacceptable!

Ye Tang furrowed her brows, desperately pulling King Western Xia away from herself.

Then she put on an awkward smile.

"Well..."

"King Western Xia!"

"This... maybe it’s just a coincidence?!"

"Can you really determine this based on a painting and a pendant...?"

Seeing that she still didn’t believe, King Western Xia continued!

"Tangtang! It’s okay if you don’t believe, daddy will prove it to you!"

After speaking, he took Ye Tang away.

"Hey hey!" Ye Tang was startled.

The jailers nearby also reacted and quickly came up to intervene.

Unexpectedly, they were slapped away by King Western Xia.

"I will take full responsibility for any problems!"

"Anyone who blocks me further will be killed without mercy!" His tone was sonorous and powerful, like a dragon’s majesty imposing fear.

After leaving these words behind, he took Ye Tang and left.

Indeed, no one dared to stop them.

Ye Tang was dumbfounded; how was this still the sickly King Western Xia?!

...

King Western Xia took her back to the inn, to his own room.

Then.

He excitedly rummaged through boxes and cabinets, placing many things in front of Ye Tang.

Looking at these familiar items.

The last line of defense in her heart was shattered to pieces.

"This is..."

She slowly picked up a hand knife.

Then took another out from her waist to compare them side by side.

"These are the Mandarin Duck Blades."

King Western Xia explained.

"I got them by chance years ago; they are supposed to be a pair!"

"Ye Xiao liked them very much!"

"So, after he accomplished something, I gave him one of the red ones as a reward!"

"And this!"

"This is the Red Fall Arrow! Ye Xiao had a Blue Sky Crossbow, making this a pair!"

"And this one..."

"And..." 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

King Western Xia explained each item.

Ye Tang silently examined each piece.

Finally, her eyes gradually reddened.

"What you said is indeed true!"

King Western Xia also looked at his daughter with tears in his eyes.

"Tangtang, my Tangtang, I finally found you!"

He hugged his daughter, crying like a child once again.

This time, Ye Tang did not reject him.

Instead, she also cried uncontrollably.

"You... are indeed my father?"

"Then what about my previous father? What... what should I do?!"

Upon hearing this, King Western Xia suddenly looked up.

"Yes, Tangtang, what about your father?"

Having raised her for over twenty years, calling him father wasn’t too much.

Prince Western Xia didn’t plan to suddenly change her form of address.

Ye Tang choked with tears.

"My father passed away long ago!"

When she thought carefully about the reason for his passing, Ye Tang suddenly understood everything.

"No wonder my father had so many scars!"

"No wonder he was so skilled in horseback archery!"

"No wonder he repeatedly insisted that I must hide in the dense forest, never come out, and never be recognized!"

"No wonder he always sighed towards the northwest, no wonder..."

In an instant, Ye Tang suddenly figured out many things.

Her father Ye Xiao was just a deeply reserved person.

He was always busy with work, never speaking a word.

She would act spoilt, but he wouldn’t care.

But when she was ill, he would silently prepare the medicine and feed her.

Then he would stay by her side all night.

As she grew older, wanting to see outside the dense forest.

He wouldn’t allow it, no matter how much she pleaded or cried, he didn’t agree.

But in the end, he still gave in, taking her out once every six months.

And even with this, she was overjoyed.

Whenever it came time to leave the forest, she was always as happy as a little bird.

And he would stand behind her.

Watching her through the sunlight.

Though not his daughter by blood, he loved her deeply.

Having cared for her since she was just over two years old until now, being biological made no difference!

What could possibly separate this father and daughter.

Later.

His health gradually deteriorated.

In the winter.

He was always in pain, the worst being late at night in the winter when he would break out in a cold sweat.

In the summer.

All his joints began to ache!

But back then.

She didn’t realize it was because of old injuries accumulated from years of battles.

She simply thought he was just sick.

So... she thought eating healthier foods would help him heal.

Looking back now, she felt she was truly foolish, truly deserving death!!

"Turns out those were old injuries, when they flared up, he needed medicine!"

But back then Silver was scarce, and her knowledge even lesser.

This issue was thus overlooked.

In the end, till the day of his death, he silently endured.

Just to prevent her from worrying, leaving her more Silver!

Upon realization, Ye Tang cried uncontrollably.

"Turns out he didn’t die from illness!"

"He had too many old injuries... but still!"

"Despite the many old injuries, he taught me all his martial arts before passing!"

"He spared no effort to protect me with all his might!"

The more Ye Tang spoke, the sadder she became, eventually she ran out to the backyard and cried her heart out.

King Western Xia worried and followed her.

Father and daughter reunited, shedding another bout of endless tears.

It was unknown how long it took for their emotions to finally calm.

King Western Xia said.

"Tangtang, he raised you for over twenty years, calling him father is proper!"

"After we return to Western Xia, let’s conduct a ceremony to acknowledge him as your godfather!"

Ye Tang looked at him.

Though reluctant in her heart, she couldn’t easily disagree.

After all.

This man in front of her was her real father.

The Western Xia Royal Family was surely strict in its rules.

Recognizing a godfather might already be a great grace, anything more would be impossible.

Thinking about it, it’s truly tragic.

As a child, she always wanted to find her mother.

But now, unable to find her mother, she found another father...

A foreign father who became King Western Xia.

If she’d known it would be like this, it would have been better not to recognize him!

She herself was never one concerned with power.

The identity of a Princess held no appeal to her.

But now.

A father is a father, she must recognize him!

Ye Tang wiped away her tears and faintly smiled.

"Alright!"

A godfather is also a father.

Upon hearing this, King Western Xia laughed.

"Good, good, how should I reward him for raising my daughter so well?!"

As he spoke, he hugged Ye Tang.

Petting her hair lovingly or gently patting her back.

He yearned to make up for all missing paternal love of these years!

Ye Tang felt extremely uneasy.

Goosebumps rose one after another.

Since childhood, no one had ever treated her like this!

Her father wouldn’t have done this.

But now.

She could only grit her teeth and endure!

Unknown how much time passed.

King Western Xia finally let go.

He looked at Ye Tang contentedly and said with a smile.

"Tangtang, from now on, daddy will no longer have regrets!"

"Now daddy can die in peace even if it happens!"

Ye Tang quickly stopped him.

"What are you talking about? You’re still young, how could you die!"

Speaking of this word death.

Ye Tang suddenly recalled the previous poisoning incident involving King Western Xia.

She asked.

"Regarding that incident, you know who the culprit was, don’t you?!"
