Chapter 4 The situation is on thin ice
"What are you still doing in a daze? Why don't you help me down?"

Just when Chu Baihan was in a daze, Yan Lin's cold voice came from the side.

Help him?

Chu Baihan looked sideways at him, frowning fiercely.

But in the end, I stretched out my hand cautiously, "My lord, this concubine will help you out."

She entered the play quickly, and even called herself a "concubine".Yan Lin's face darkened slightly, but he didn't bother to correct her.

His palms were wide and slightly cold, and the thin calluses on them made her fingertips very uncomfortable, but she didn't dare to complain.

In this way, she helped him out of the carriage.

"This is the eighth sister-in-law, right? The relationship between the eighth emperor and the eighth sister-in-law is really good." The yin and yang voice sounded again.

Chu Baihan looked up and saw a man in a Chinese robe standing not far away fanning his fan.

His outline is three points similar to Yan Lin's, but he is not half as charming as him, especially his cloudy eyes, mixed with calculations, making people look very uncomfortable.

"Fifth Prince." Yan Lin didn't bother to pay attention to the other party, but Zi Ying reluctantly saluted behind him.

Fifth Prince?
Then this person should be the Fifth Prince Yanjin.It is heard that he is obsessed with female sex and frequents brothels, but because he has a good relationship with the prince and his mother is one of the four concubines, Concubine Han, so he can take charge of the official department.

Chu Baihan was thinking about this in his heart, and when he looked up, he found that Yan Jin was sizing her up with naked eyes.

This look made her sick, and her face turned cold.

"Lord Lin, you are here. The emperor is waiting for you and the concubine at Fuyang Palace." Eunuch Zhang Hai, who was beside the emperor, ran over quickly, and he reminded him in a low voice while wiping his sweat.

"Oh, after all, the Eighth Emperor Brother has never been to court since his eye accident, and he has rarely been summoned by his father. He must not know how to get out of Fuyang Palace. Do you need me to guide you, Brother Emperor?"

Yan Jin spoke contemptuously again, he really took the opportunity to humiliate Yan Lin severely.

"Fifth Prince, you..." Ziying couldn't get enough of her anger, and wanted to speak up to defend their master.

But at this time Chu Baihan had already stood up, and she said softly to Yan Jin: "Don't bother Brother Wuhuang, the father-in-law will lead the way, and the concubine will just support my prince."

After finishing speaking, her slender fingers took the initiative to hold Yan Lin's big palm again.

Sensing the softness of the palm, a certain King Lin's thick eyelashes trembled slightly, but his dark pupils were still empty, and no one knew what was going on in his heart.

After a long time, he said blankly, "Let's go."

Hearing this, Chu Baihan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Yan Lin still gave her face in front of the outside, she was really afraid that he would unceremoniously shake off her hand.

When turning around and heading towards Fuyang Hall, Chu Baihan could still feel Yan Jin's contemptuous eyes behind him.

She couldn't help but secretly glanced at the man beside her from the corner of her eye.

He was so tall that she needed to lift her head up to see his profile.

The sun shone down, making his handsome and flawless side face seem to be covered with a layer of light.

If nothing happened to his eyes, what a brilliance it would be.

After hearing that he was blind, the prince's party and other princes attacked him together.

Although the emperor didn't completely take away his military power, he let him recuperate in the mansion, and he didn't care about the military camp or the court affairs.

From a proud son of heaven to a remnant king whom everyone despises, he must feel very uncomfortable.

Chu Baihan couldn't help feeling a little pity in her heart, but she quickly suppressed this pity.

?Now that she can't protect herself, it is really inappropriate to pity someone who wants to kill her.

With a steady mind, she and Yan Lin crossed the threshold of Fuyang Hall.

The emperor's test... She didn't know if she could get through it safely.

"Your Majesty, Prince Lin and Prince Lin's mansion are here." The eunuch reminded the emperor in a low voice in the hall.

"My son has met the father." Yan Lin did not lift his head, his thin lips moved slightly, and his voice was cold.

"Your eyes are inconvenient, so there is no need for etiquette." The emperor put down the memorial in his hand and said softly.

Banquet etiquette does not need to be so thoughtful, but she can't...

Chu Baihan lowered his head and quickly knelt down.

"The emperor's daughter-in-law has met the emperor." When the words came out, her heart was very confused.

"You are the daughter of Chu Aiqing? Get up and raise your head." The emperor's voice came from the hall.

His tone was calm, but the aura of the emperor was not to be underestimated.

Chu Baihan took a deep breath, and slowly raised his head while standing up.

The emperor sitting on the dragon chair looks nearly 50 years old, and the hair on his temples is completely white, presumably because he has worked too much on state affairs.

His eyes were full of oppression, and he just stared at her like this.

Chu Baihan didn't know what he was thinking.

After a long time, he suddenly chuckled.

"You little girl, you dare to look directly at me, you have the demeanor of your mother Xu." He seemed to recall some past memories, and his tone was quite emotional.

Xu?My mother's surname is Xu.

His Majesty...

"Your Majesty, my daughter is guilty." Chu Baihan understood that he already knew about her marriage, so he wanted to plead guilty immediately.

"Just now you called yourself 'Emperor's Daughter-in-law', why do you call yourself 'Minister' now? Do you think being the daughter-in-law of the royal family has humiliated you?" The emperor's face turned cold, and his tone implied anger.

"Minister...the emperor's daughter-in-law doesn't mean that." Chu Baihan shook his head quickly.

"It's not that good. Since you've married into the royal family, you're Lao Ba's concubine. You have to be more careful in calling yourself in the future. As for Chu Aiqing, it seems that he is really old and confused. The royal daughter-in-law can still Arrange according to his temperament..."

The last sentence, he seemed to be talking to himself.

The entire hall was extremely quiet, only his voice echoed.

Chu Baihan looked at him, neither angry nor happy, and his tone was really unpredictable.

"After entering the imperial gate, you have to take it easy, old eighth daughter-in-law, don't you think so?" The emperor looked at Chu Baihan again, and said this meaningfully.

What exactly is the emperor trying to hit her with?
Chu Baihan's back was covered with cold sweat, the king's heart was unpredictable, she understood it completely today.

Just when the atmosphere was about to continue to be stalemate, Yan Lin finally said again: "Father, the imperial grandmother misses my son. If you are fine, my son and the princess will go to pay their respects to the emperor's grandmother."

His tone was cold and devoid of respect.

Strangely, the emperor was not angry either.

He nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, your imperial grandmother has always missed you. It's really not easy for you to enter the palace. Go."

The way these two father and son get along is so strange, Chu Baihan frowned and thought deeply.

Soon, Yan Lin's unhappy voice came from her ear: "Are you still leaving?"

"The concubine is leaving now." When she regained her senses, Chu Baihan quickly reached out to support his arm, and carefully helped him out.

She felt that there seemed to be a fire in his body.

Why is he angry? Is he hating the emperor?
"If you don't want to die too ugly, put away your curiosity." Walking outside, Yan Lin said with a sneer.

Chu Baihan's expression froze, and after a long time, she said embarrassingly, "I know."

Forget it, after she rescued Nan Xing, they immediately fled this place.

She should not pry too much into the secrets of the palace, the more she knows, the sooner she will die.

"When I get to the emperor's grandmother later, if you talk nonsense, I will kill you." Yan Lin said coldly again, and the warning was not polite.
