Chapter 99
From the next morning to the present, most of the morning has passed without knowing it.Rarely, the sun shone in through the window, driving away some of the chill in the house.

As soon as he heard that Emperor Dong Ling wanted to call Xia Zhi into the palace, Han Poli looked at the bright yellow figure and smiled instead of anger.He suddenly felt that the act of entering the palace alone today could not be more correct.

I didn't see Xia Zhi last night, but today I can take advantage of Emperor Dongling's oral order to take a good look at that little man.

Thinking of this, Han Po immediately knelt on the ground and gave a big gift to Emperor Dong Ling for the third time, "Master, thank you Lord Long En!"

Compared with the rebellious attitude just now, Han Poli can be regarded as happily accepting the imperial edict at this time.However, Emperor Dongling and Prime Minister Yan suddenly couldn't figure out what Han Poli was thinking. What's going on?

They thought that Han Poli would be so happy because Emperor Dongling had given him an order to get married within ten days.

……

It is a happy thing to deal with things and still have time to sleep.Xia Zhi didn't know how long she had been lying on the bed, because she had a long dream.

"Miss, wake up. Someone is coming from the palace." Bai Yi pushed Xia Zhi, pulling her out of the dream.

Xia Zhi opened her eyes in a daze, but what she saw was still a vast expanse of whiteness, she closed her eyes again.After a long time, after the consciousness had returned to normal, he asked in a hoarse voice, "What time is it?"

"It's not yet noon. Miss, there are people coming from the palace, a team of guards in armor and servants, do you think we want..." Bai Yi looked at the sky, and first went to open the window slightly , and then went back to tuck Xia Zhi's quilt.

Xia Zhi nodded, as if she had heard what Bai Yi said.After lying in bed for a while, Bai Yi helped her up. "Go and ask what happened first. And tell the guards of the house that, except for Brother Han who comes in, no one else is allowed to be rough on them when they come to visit."

Bai Yi responded, and after dressing Xia Zhi, he turned around and went out the door.

After a while, he came in and reported to Xia Zhi, "Miss, it is said that Emperor Dongling summoned you into the palace. I can't ask about anything else."

Xia Zhi pondered for a while, took Bai Yi's hand to support her, slowly got up and walked towards the door.Just before going out, he waved his hand in the air again, "A Li, remember to tell them later, if I don't come back tonight, remember to tell him everything about today when Feng Qiu comes to invite someone tomorrow."

There was a sound of clothes rubbing in the air.With a cold face, Xia Zhi followed the people from the palace into the carriage.

……

When Yan Sihan came to the imperial study room with his servant, the queen's palace, he was extremely nervous.She probably also guessed what Emperor Dong Ling's purpose was for calling her to the Imperial Study.

I heard that Han Poli and Prime Minister Yan were also inside.

Clutching a handkerchief, Yan Sihan seemed to have lost the strength to move forward before stepping into the door.

The maid standing behind Yan Sihan looked at Yan Sihan suspiciously, not understanding why she stopped.Sensing the strange eyes of the servant guarding the door, the servant girl gently tugged Yan Sihan's sleeve, "Miss?"

Yan Sihan is a lady trained by the Yan family. She has participated in countless banquets in the palace, and she even has more chances to face the saint. It is impossible for her to be stage fright.But why she stopped at the door of the imperial study room at this time.

The handkerchief had been pinched by her so long ago that she couldn't see its original shape. Yan Sihan took a deep breath and finally felt the strength on her feet.But when she just stepped into the house, she heard the latest decree issued by Emperor Dong Ling.

Yan Sihan froze for a moment, and repeated in his own mouth what he had just heard, "We will be married within ten days..."

Then she heard Han Li's voice of thanking him. That steady voice made Yan Sihan's heart tremble.

In fact, Yan Sihan never thought that she would marry Han Lili before the imperial decree of marriage came out.Although she, as well as the other well-known young masters and ladies in the capital, have all studied in the same academy as Han Poli, and after getting along with him all day, it is inevitable that they will be impressed by this general who stands out from a group of frail scholars, but Yan Sihan really didn't consider Han Poli.

Apart from the fact that she is the prime minister's daughter and that he is a general stationed at the border, Yan Sihan also found that Han Poli was ruthless to every woman, even to the point of disgust.

If it hadn't been reported back then that Han Poli almost tarnished the reputation of the former queen's sister, Han Poli would probably be the subject of speculation in the entire Kyoto now.

In private, it was rumored that Han Poli was actually a broken sleeve.

But now Emperor Dongling gave them a marriage, so Yan Sihan had to forget all his previous thoughts, and could only marry Han Poli according to the order, and then stay in the capital to tidy up a backyard for him.There is a home to live in when he returns triumphantly again.

Thinking of this, Yan Sihan had the motivation to step in again.

The servant standing beside Emperor Dongling saw a girl in a light yellow palace dress coming from the imperial study with sharp eyes, and hurriedly reminded Emperor Dongling, "Your Majesty, Miss Yan is here."

The three people who were originally staying in the imperial study immediately cast their eyes on Yan Sihan.

As soon as Yan Sihan caught the bright yellow color in his eyes, he immediately knelt down on the ground and gave a big gift to Emperor Dong Ling.She just clenched her fists under the wide sleeve robe, and the scene she just saw clearly appeared in her mind.

Emperor Dong Ling's face was full of imperial air, she didn't dare to look directly at it.Prime Minister Yan looked at her lovingly, Yan Sihan understood her father's thoughts.But Han Poli...

Brother Ali of the Miss Kyoto looked at his fiancée with a stranger's gaze.

Yan Sihan couldn't figure it out, obviously he thanked Emperor Dongling for his will just now, didn't he?
"Get up. I finally became a matchmaker, and now it's time for you to treat me well." Emperor Dongling put away the aura of the superior, and put on the same kind face as Yan Chengxiang, letting Yan Sihan stand in Han Poli's side.

Yan Sihan's face blushed when he heard Emperor Dong Ling's joke.He looked up at Han Poli inadvertently, and wanted to walk over, but he was a little shy.After finally adjusting his mentality so that he could walk over naturally, he accidentally stepped on the corner of his skirt and rushed directly in Han Poli's direction.

And Han Poli can catch Yan Sihan as long as he stretches out his hand.

……

As soon as Xia Zhi got into the carriage, she found the horses pulling the carriage galloping forward quickly.After Bai Yi was able to firmly support Xia Zhi to sit still, and fasten the straps that had slipped off, the carriage under him stopped again.

It didn't take long before the servant's shrill voice came from outside, "Madam, please get out of the carriage and go in. Horse-drawn carriages are not allowed to enter the palace."

At first Xia Zhi was wondering why her house was so close to the palace gate, but after hearing the servant's voice, she immediately pressed the corners of her lips together and held Bai Yi's hand.

Xia Zhiqing said in a cold voice, "No matter who you meet later, you must follow me closely." She is blind now, so it shouldn't be too much to bring a personal maid.As for Ah Li, there must be a way for him to enter the palace.

Sure enough, when Xia Zhi got out of the car and brought Bai Yi into the palace, no one stopped them.

The cold face and the corners of the lips are tightly pursed, these are the habits that Xia Zhi has developed since she experienced those things five years ago.When in an unfamiliar environment, someone must be by her side.

Because she is afraid of death.

It didn't seem like a very long way from the palace gate to the imperial study room, but Xia Zhi and the others walked for an hour.I don't know if it was because the servant leading the way picked a difficult path, or because of something else, when they walked into the imperial study, Xia Zhi was already sweating profusely.

The shoes on the feet were wet by the remaining snow on the ground.

While they were still waiting for the waiter to go in and communicate, Bai Yi looked at Xia Zhi's situation and felt dissatisfied in his heart.

On Xia Zhi's body, apart from the wet shoes she could feel, the hem of her skirt was also wet.Bai Yi watched Xia Zhi's forehead covered with sweat, but when he touched her palm, it was still cold.

"Miss, why did you stop me just now. You also know that as long as winter comes, your hands will be extremely cold. If there is no heater, your hands will not be frozen!"

Bai Yi rubbed his two hands on the clothes beside him several times, and only covered Xia Zhi's palm after a little warmth.Feeling the coldness in his hand, Bai Yi stomped his feet a few times anxiously, complaining, "I don't know how long I will wait here, Miss, you shouldn't have let them take away the stove in your hand just now."

Listening to Bai Yi's words, Xia Zhi shook her head lightly, telling her to take back her complaints, "If they don't accept my stove, then I have to wonder if Emperor Dongling still has ulterior motives for me."

After a pause, Xia Zhi then lowered her voice and said softly, "Can you guess why Emperor Dongling summoned me to the imperial study instead of the empress's palace?"

When Bai Yi heard Xia Zhi's words, he couldn't help lowering his voice, "I don't know. Isn't it because that old man wants to trick you?"

Xia Zhi's already cold heart was warmed by Bai Yi's words.

old man?Trick?
Xia Zhi's mouth curled up in a puzzled smile, as expected, she saw the right person at the beginning.The maid Bai Yi is indeed more interesting than others, especially when it comes to words.

Xia Zhi shook her head, still lowering her voice, "No, because he is afraid of me, he can't play dirty tricks, he can only play tricks. Maybe we will see an extremely exciting scene when we enter the door later."

Hearing Xia Zhi's profound words, Bai also nodded with a vague understanding.

In the end, without making them wait for long, Xia Zhi heard a voice coming from inside.Xia Zhi straightened her back, let Bai Yi support her, and stepped into the door with a cold expression.

Then, Xia Zhi heard Bai Yi gasp.
