The reborn woman returns

Chapter 16

There are two tall guards in the upper study room, which is almost a forbidden area in the palace. There are also various hidden guards ambushing around them, and there are many guards patrolling around.The two men who guarded the door saw the little eunuch showing a familiar smile and greeted the man in a low voice.

"Eunuch Sun, good day."

The little eunuch also had a smile on his face, "Xu Shiwei, Chen Shiwei has worked hard."

Chen Shiwei, whose name was called, said "don't dare", and stood guard without looking sideways after saying hello.

Xu Shiwei looked at Chen Shiwei with a little disgust, and stopped the little eunuch's shoulder. "Don't worry about him, Eunuch Sun, are you in a hurry?"

Hearing this, the little eunuch's face instantly became a little excited. "Yes, Guard Xu, is His Majesty inside?"

"Eunuch Sun, it's a coincidence that you came here. Your Majesty is here, but the imperial concubine is also there." The little eunuch's face suddenly became sad, the imperial concubine and empress are inside, how can the emperor have time to care about outside affairs!
"What are you arguing about?" The vermilion door opened from the inside, and an eunuch dressed in clothes that were many times better than that of the little eunuch appeared in front of the two of them.As soon as the little eunuch saw someone, he bowed his head respectfully and called foster father.The eunuch inside looked much better when he saw his godson outside, but he still said in a low voice. "You don't want to die, kid, I can't keep you if you disturb His Majesty."

The little eunuch had a bitter expression on his face, and stretched out his head to whisper a few words to his father-in-law.The eldest lady also had a tangled face after listening to it, looked at the little eunuch, turned and went into the study.In the study room, a woman wearing a five-color phoenix hairpin and a white jade bead hairpin, wearing a light red lining and a brocade satin cover with pearls, is rolling up her sleeves and revealing her plain white wrists, concentrating on grinding the inkstone.

Sitting next to her was the emperor in a tuanlong golden robe, who was reviewing the memorial, and occasionally glanced at the woman with invisible tenderness.

"Your Majesty, the Duke seeks an audience."

The emperor raised his eyebrows and put down the wolf hair in his hand.

The woman heard the eunuch talking about the Duke, who was grinding the ink, gave a light wrist, and then continued to move without leaving a trace.

"It's a coincidence, I just mentioned your father, and here we are." The emperor was not in a hurry to summon Wei Guogong, but pulled Concubine Xue's wrist, "Does my beloved concubine know what the Duke is doing?"

It turned out that this woman was none other than Wei Guogong's eldest daughter, Xue Shaochen's older sister, and Xue Guifei, the most beloved concubine of the current emperor.

Concubine Xue Gui lowered her eyebrows and said in a chatty manner. "The concubine's father must have something important to see His Majesty, how dare the concubine lie."

The emperor seemed helpless, gently rubbed the back of her hand, and said something softly. "Slippery!" He asked the eunuch in a blink of an eye, "Did Wei Guogong say anything about looking for me?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, the Duke of the State did not explain the reason, but he just walked in a hurry, as if there was something urgent." The eunuch looked at his nose, nose, nose and heart, and even his breathing was very soft.

The emperor frowned slightly, "Pass."

"According to the order."

Concubine Xue Gui immediately blessed her body when she heard the words, with lowered eyebrows, "The concubine will resign." It is a rule set by the ancestors that the concubines avoid when the foreign ministers meet.

"My concubine hasn't seen the Duke for many days, so let's stay." The emperor didn't seem to take this rule very seriously, so Concubine Xue could only stand quietly on one side.

Wei Guogong was dressed in a purple-gold boa robe, with shrewd and wise eyes, which made people feel murderous.Gray hair can be seen faintly on the temples, and his gait is steady and has the style of a titan. "The humble minister Xue Qingpeng kowtows to the emperor, the noble concubine, and the empress, may my emperor live long and live long, and my empress may live a thousand years and a thousand years."

"The Duke is exempt from courtesy." The emperor lightly raised his hand and asked Duke Wei to stand up. "The Duke entered the palace in a hurry, why?"

"My minister pleads guilty and wants to ask the emperor for something." Wei Guogong didn't get up, his face was solemn.

Seeing that Wei Guogong was so cautious, the emperor's eyes changed. "What makes the Duke so cautious? But it doesn't matter."

"What I want to ask for is the Holy Pond Golden Lotus." The Duke said with a sigh.

Concubine Xue Gui turned pale immediately, and hurriedly asked: "But father is unwell?" The golden lotus in the Holy Pond is a sacred object of the Qian Kingdom, which can cure all poisons.

"It's not a humble minister." Wei Guogong replied immediately.Concubine Xue Gui's face became even uglier, "Could it be the little brother..." The little brother is now in Licheng to help the disaster, could it be...

"It's not a dog." Wei Guogong suddenly didn't know how to say it, but Concubine Xue Gui's complexion returned to blood, as long as it wasn't her father and younger brother.
