In ancient times, I made a fortune by copying my family

Chapter 373 Secret

Manager Han was about to kneel down to pay tribute to the emperor.

Unexpectedly, the emperor suddenly approached him quickly and snatched the gift list from his hand.

Manager Han was so stunned that he even forgot to kneel down.

Not only Manager Han, but others were also surprised.

The emperor has always been calm, and I have never seen him lose his composure like this before.

Eunuch Deng, who was accompanying him, was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward anxiously, "Your Majesty..."

For the sake of safety when going out, Eunuch Deng usually inspects everything he eats, drinks, or comes into contact with before handing it over to the emperor after confirming that it is not poisonous.

But when Eunuch Deng saw that the emperor took the gift list without waiting for him to check it, he was afraid that something was wrong and wanted to take it from him.

Unexpectedly, the emperor not only refused to let him touch the gift list, but also suddenly shouted at him fiercely, "Presumptuous..."

Eunuch Deng was so frightened that he knelt down and begged for mercy. He had no idea what he had done wrong, and he had no idea why the emperor looked so terrifying.

The emperor ignored Eunuch Deng and carefully touched the gift list as if it were a treasure.

Everyone's eyes followed the emperor's movements and fell on the gift list.

There is a painting on the cover.

Ling Chu looked at it curiously and found a graceful and luxurious peony painted on it. On the peony is a lifelike colorful butterfly.

At this time, the emperor's hand fell on the colorful butterfly.

What surprised Ling Chu was that she found that the emperor's hands were trembling slightly?

She subconsciously raised her head and her eyes fell on the emperor's face.

That majestic face had a complicated expression at the moment.

There is love and pity, heartache, guilt, and pain...

Curiosity killed the cat.

After just one glance, Ling Chu's heart tightened and he immediately lowered his eyes, looking at his nose and heart.

Although others were also curious, they all saw the emperor's gaffe and rage just now.

No one dares to pry into the emperor's secrets.

Everyone, like Ling Chu, bowed their heads and remained silent.

No one dared to leave, let alone make the slightest sound.

There was dead silence.

It seemed like a long time passed, and it seemed like it was just a few breaths.

The emperor unfolded the gift list with trembling hands.

The gift list includes all kinds of gold and silver jewelry, jewelry, and silk and satin.

The emperor's eyes swept over and fell on the familiar yet unfamiliar handwriting, and his heart felt painful.

He raised his hand and stroked it gently over the writing.

The movement was like caressing a beloved woman.

half an hour.

The emperor slowly closed the gift list and looked at the second gift list in his hand.

There is a picture of tall and slender green bamboo on the cover.

The second gift list was thicker and longer than the first, and it was densely filled with all kinds of gifts.

The handwriting on it is the same as the previous gift note.

The emperor felt both familiar and strange at the same time.

The long-lost heartache came flooding back.

The emperor's hands were holding the gift list, and his knuckles turned white.

After reading the two gift lists one by one, the emperor found that there was a letter at the bottom.

On the cover of the letter were written the four words "Ling Chu personally opened the letter".

The emperor paused and did not open the letter.

"Princess Jiashan."

Ling Chu was stunned and subconsciously raised his head.

Seeing the emperor handing the letter in his hand to him.

Even more surprised.

Seeing that she didn't move, the emperor stretched his hand in front of her again and said, "Your letter."

Ling Chu quickly glanced at the emperor and saw that he was not angry, then he slowly reached out and took the letter.

Her eyes fell on the envelope and she saw her name. Only then did she know why the emperor gave her the letter.

But the handwriting on it was unfamiliar and she had never seen it before.

The emperor took back his hand and saw that Ling Chu was holding the letter motionless.

"Take it apart and take a look."

"Okay." Ling Chu was a little confused, but somehow felt that the emperor seemed a little anxious. Moreover, it seemed that he wanted to take the letter and open it himself.

There was something wrong with the Emperor. Ling Chu didn't have time to think about it and raised his hand to gently tear open the envelope.

The emperor withdrew his gaze and slowly raised his head, but didn't look at anyone.

He glanced at the various boxes carried, held, carried, and carried by the boys one by one.

The boys were uneasy and didn't know what was going on. Seeing King Dingyuan and the others standing quietly aside, they did not dare to move at all. They lowered their heads and allowed the emperor to look at them.

The letter in Ling Chu's hand was not long, and only two things were written on it.

The first is to tell her that everything on Colorful Butterfly's gift list is for her.

The other copy was asked to be handed over to Ning Chuyi on her behalf.

The envelope is unsigned.

Ling Chu's first reaction was that her master knew that Dingyuan Prince's Palace was giving her a replacement hairpin gift, so he sent her these gifts.

But as soon as the idea came up, she rejected it again.

The handwriting on this letter was not written by the real person Xuan Yi, but was clearly written by a woman.

Moreover, as far as he knew, her master had no contact with Ning Chuyi at all, so how could she suddenly send him so many things.

Not Master Xuan Yi, nor her other two senior brothers.

Ling Chu was confused.

After the emperor looked at the boxes, he looked back at Ling Chu.

"Princess Jiashan, can you give me the letter?"

As soon as the emperor spoke, Ning Chuyi and King Dingyuan frowned at the same time.

Ling Chu raised his eyes and glanced at the emperor, then silently handed over the letter.

To be honest, she was also very curious.

The letter is for her, and the gift is for her.

But she didn't know who gave her the gift.

The emperor had no share in those things, but he clearly recognized the paintings and handwriting on the gift list.

But even though he was curious, Ling Chu didn't ask a single word.

Curiosity killed the cat.

Staying away from the royal family's secrets, especially the emperor's secrets, is the best way to save your life.

The emperor read the letter at a glance, with a mixture of sadness and joy on his face.

a long time.

The emperor finally withdrew his gaze and looked at Manager Han.

"Who sent these gift cards and gifts?"

Manager Han was equally uneasy, but he had also fought on the battlefield with King Dingyuan when he was young, so he was still calm at this time.

"Back to the emperor, it was sent by Weiyuan Escort Agency."

"Who is escorting the escort? Where is he now?"

"It's the bodyguard leader Lei Dagang. I just asked him to attend the banquet at our house."

"Quickly summon the leader of the thunder escort to come see me."

When Lei Dagang heard that the emperor had summoned him, he hurried over anxiously.

After seeing the ceremony, the emperor immediately pointed to the ceremony carried by the servants and asked, "Who escorted you to transport these things?"

Lei Dagang was confused in his heart, but he said respectfully, "Back to the emperor, these things were entrusted by a man named Chen Wu to escort them back to the capital. One is for Princess Jiashan, and the other is for Lord Ning."

Ning Chuyi frowned. Are some of those things for him?

How can the things given to him be sent to Dingyuan Palace?

After turning around in his mind, Ning Chuyi realized that he didn't know Chen Wu.

This name doesn't sound like a real name.

The emperor also had the same idea.

After questioning Lei Dagang for a long time, he didn't get any useful information.

The escort agency only cares about delivering the escort safely to the designated person, and will not ask for detailed information about the person who escorted the escort.

The emperor was silent for a while, then waved back the thunderbolt head.

"Summon Ning Guo Gong to come and see me quickly."
