Shen Xue Ziyang

Working by the emperor's side, there is no such thing as "rest", and the emperor will not let you rest, even if I have the heart and courage of a leopard.But this is not an absolute thing. For example, my "hard work" day and night moved Zi Feng a little, and he even allowed me to go home to visit relatives.

"Are you serious?" I need to reconfirm seriously.

"When have I lied to you?" Zi Feng responded unhurriedly, taking a sip of the tea that the maidservant had just brought, frowning, "The astringency is too strong, pour him out."

"..."

I didn't say that, with such a difficult emperor to serve, I deeply doubt whether I can leave safely.

Worried and worried, I still obediently chose a sunny day to leave the palace and returned to the home I haven't returned to for many years - Cangyun Palace.

My father is the hereditary King Cangyun. He practiced martial arts with his grandfather since he was a child.I was born late, and I was not interested in swords, guns and sticks when I was young. I didn't like to fight and kill. My father didn't force me to join the martial arts. Instead, he found many excellent teachers to teach me piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.If I could keep working hard with these gentlemen, I would be considered a gifted scholar compared to what I am now. It is a pity that I have learned "books", but the elegant arts of "qinqihua" were interviewed privately by Weifu before I even touched them. Emperor Mo was brought to the palace.

Even if the gentlemen in the palace are more capable than the folk gentlemen outside, they can't stop the students from being absent-minded.After I entered the palace, I was led by Zifeng and Haoci, and I got along with them all day long, but I failed to become the talented noble son in my father's heart.

"Master, madam! The young master is back!"

As soon as I stepped into the house, I heard Wenniang shouting in the yard. The servants in the house changed wave after wave over time, but Wenniang was always there.Hearing her energetic voice, other young people in the family stopped what they were doing and looked at me, as if I was a new species, and I could even hear their whispers.

"Hmm..." I cleared my throat on purpose, "I told you to do what you should do, and I'm not a monster. Be careful, if I'm not happy, you will all be punished."

These words really worked, the servants and servants all fled in all directions as if they were hiding from the plague.

"After so many years in the palace, she has become more and more stubborn."

My parents leaned against the door frame to welcome me, so I had to scratch my head and restrain myself, feeling embarrassed.

"It's not easy for the baby to come back, why can't father and mother say a few thoughtful words?"

"Do you often talk about being considerate?"

Father is still as majestic as ever, unwilling to say a soft word to me.

Mother said that they had already received the news from the palace, and by the time I got home, the good wine and food would have been ready.

On this day, I had a full meal with my parents and chatted with them a lot of anecdotes about the palace.I haven't grown up with them all these years, so it's inevitable that I'm born. There were times when the blank space between the words was too long, and I could only smirk.

It's not anyone's fault, both father and mother understand, the three of us will not live much longer under the same roof, cherishing the days together is more worthwhile than minding embarrassment.

I have nothing to do at home, so I sleep until the sun rises every day, so I no longer have to worry about when the emperor will go to court, what urgent government affairs will be dealt with in the court, and which adults' memorials need to be reviewed first... Naturally, after waking up, I will exercise my muscles and bones, Teasing the birds in the cage, practicing calligraphy, it's unbelievably leisurely.

Haoci once said that laziness is poison, but the facts prove that such days are the gods.Even if it is really poisonous, let me be poisoned for a few days first.

"Master An, is Master An at home?"

I haven't been poisoned to the core, but this familiar voice is about to detoxify me.

Xiaochengzi is a little follower specially sent by Eunuch Liu to take care of me. The affairs in the palace are complicated, and I don't have superpowers, so I can have such a person by my side for emergencies.

Whenever something happened and he didn't know what to do, Xiao Chengzi would call my name with his voice that had just entered the stage of voice change.In one day, I heard him say "Master An" no less than twenty times.

"Master An, Lord An!"

The voice crossed the yard and stopped outside my door, and I heard his tone was more urgent than ever, and my intuition told me that something was wrong.

"What happened? Sit down and rest for a while."

I asked Xiao Chengzi to sit in the room, and ordered Wen Niang to pour him a glass of water, which he drank while panting.

"Master An, your house is really not easy to find. It took several turns. Isn't this called 'The Winding Path Leads to the Quiet'?"

"...The point is, has something happened to the emperor?"

"Oh, the emperor sent me to tell you that there is a shortage of manpower in his palace, and he asked you to find one."

"Shortage of manpower?!"

I suddenly felt overwhelmed, and wished I could vomit a few ounces of blood on the spot.The emperor alone is the master of the entire palace, and all the manpower in the palace is allocated to him, but he still thinks it is not enough, how dare you say it!

Xiao Chengzi was afraid that I would not believe him, so she deliberately took out the emperor's handwriting, which contained a simple sentence - "Find someone for me".

What about the time you agreed to give me to recuperate?They're all liars...

"Little Chengzi, tell me the truth, why does the emperor want to find someone? Is it because the people in the palace are not easy to use?"

I circled Xiaochengzi with my hands behind my back and gave him an unusually sharp look.

"Lord An, I dare not hide it from you, but you don't know that on the second day after you left the palace, several maids in Chao'an Palace were arguing over who would clean the emperor's coat."

Xiao Chengzi had a calm face, saying that it was like eating a bowl of noodles, so it was no surprise.

"Is washing clothes worth such a struggle?"

It's the first time I've heard of this happening.

"Hey, how do I know what women are thinking? I saw them fighting so much that they tore the emperor's middle coat in the end."

"What! This... the emperor is not angry?"

"The emperor just ordered someone to change a new set, and didn't say much. But in the next few days, the emperor couldn't stand them chattering all day long, and they were flustered, so he sent me to find you. Lord An, you must be sure. I need to find someone who suits the emperor, otherwise he will send me to become a monk... I am using my hair as a guarantee for you."

"...It's really worrying."

No matter how much I complain about Zi Feng, I still have to work tirelessly to do what needs to be done for him. I must have owed him a few pennies in my previous life, and I have to run around for him in this life.
