Chapter 42

"This Marquis is entering the palace at the emperor's order, please inform Eunuch Chen." Xue Yan looked at Eunuch Chen with his hands behind his back.What he said was not arrogant but also not flattering. As the saying goes, it is better to offend a first-rank official than to offend a harem eunuch.These people hang around the emperor almost all day long, and if they are not paying attention, they are easy to be put on small shoes.

Eunuch Chen did not dare to wear the little shoes of Ning Yuanhou. This master has been favored by the emperor since he was a child. He has an unpredictable temper and is difficult to serve.It's just that the current situation inside, it's not suitable for Lord Hou to go in, is it?After hesitating for a while, he still said: "Your Majesty, it's better not to go in for the time being." Although the emperor had ordered that Ningyuan Houlai just go in without notification, but don't bump into this stall!It is always inappropriate to have foreign ministers around in this harem affair.

"What's the matter?" Xue Yan, who found the atmosphere a bit strange, asked with a smile. "Is there something wrong inside?" Otherwise, there would be no reason for the eunuch not to let me in when I got to the door~
Eunuch Chen looked at the people around him, approached Xue Yanfu and said, "Are the Empress and Imperial Concubine inside?"

"Empress?" Xue Yan frowned. For so many years, he had almost forgotten that there was a queen empress in the harem, and he locked himself in the Buddhist hall all day long. He even refused to participate in the usual celebrations. How could he appear in the Chengqian Palace with the eldest sister, but what Eunuch Chen said was true, it is really inconvenient to go in by himself for the affairs of the harem. "Did the emperor ask me to wait?" If you want to wait for a while, then you can go to the side hall and wait.

"No, the emperor said earlier that if you don't need to pass on the news, you can just go in." Eunuch Chen hurriedly bowed and replied, if the emperor asked why he came here, wouldn't it make him feel overwhelmed? However, it is still up to Lord Ningyuan to decide whether to advance or not.At this time, the little eunuch in the inner palace came out in a hurry and saluted immediately when he saw Xue Yan, "My servant Li Zhong has seen Lord Hou Qiansui."

"What are the emperor's orders?" Seeing that he was his godson, Eunuch Chen immediately asked.Could it be that the Holy Majesty already knew that Master Hou had arrived?Impossible~
Li Zhong buried his head and said to Eunuch Chen: "The emperor has a decree, and the little princess of Xuanhuo Palace will have an audience immediately." Xue Yan frowned immediately when he heard the words, passed on Hanyan?Could it be that something happened?Han Yan should not be in the palace at the moment.Ignoring Eunuch Chen beside him, he immediately entered the inner hall, and within a moment, he saw a palace lady kneeling on the ground shivering, while Emperor Yongtai frowned and said nothing.His eldest sister and the empress stood on both sides of the emperor, and they were also silent, appearing very quiet.But the atmosphere is weird, as if firecrackers will be ignited at any time, and even a small spark will overturn everything in front of them in an instant.

Xue Yan bowed his hands and saluted, and half-kneeled to Emperor Yongtai who was seated, "I have seen the emperor."

"Shaochen, get up quickly." Emperor Yongtai looked at Xue Yan, his brows were a little relieved, but he just sighed helplessly, "I was going to discuss with you about the Tiger Wing Barracks, but I heard that you went to Liufang Pavilion to meet beautiful women. Merry ah~" The conversation between the two is usually very casual, but now they also made a joke.Although this Xue Shaochen only has Hanyan in his heart, he still can't change his flirtatious temperament~
The queen next to him heard how gentle the emperor was to Xue Shaochen, and the peace of mind that had been accompanied by the ancient Buddha with the blue lamp all year round seemed to be cracked a little bit.She smiled neither thick nor weak, and her eyes were indifferent to the world, but the ten fingers hidden in the cuffs had already been tightly clenched, and the emperor still favored this Xue family so much.

Facing Emperor Yongtai's teasing, Xue Yan said without blushing and heartbeat: "This is the only thing I like. The Liufang Pavilion has become very famous recently. I'm afraid I won't be free after a while. Why should the emperor make fun of it?"

"You, you~" Emperor Yongtai said helplessly, "Only you dare to say that in front of me."

Xue Yan was calm and nodded indifferently. "This humble minister is just telling the truth." Xue Guifei saw the conversation between the two, the corners of her lips curled up slightly. The younger brother has never had anything to stop him from speaking in front of the emperor since he was a child. Fortunately, the emperor found it new and did not blame him.Seeing their appearance like this, the Queen's face turned even colder, not knowing what she was thinking.
