Emperor Xinchen

Remembering the imperial sister living outside the palace, Yao Huaiyuan was in a trance.

She probably didn't call that girl Hanyan into the palace for half a month.

Strange to say, before King Chang died, Yao Huaiyuan seldom noticed the coldness of the palace.At this point, she just read a confession letter of apology, and she felt uncomfortable.

This may be the old saying that the lips are dead and the teeth are cold...

After a while of silence, Yao Huaiyuan lowered his eyebrows and looked carefully at the scroll on the desk.Jiji that night, in addition to Yao Nian'an, king of Chang, she also painted a portrait of Han Yan.Stretching his finger to brush the slightly charming and drunken face in the scroll, Yao Huaiyuan decided to go to Prince Han's mansion to have a look.

Anticipating that Han Yan of the branch would waste some effort, Yao Huaiyuan ordered the servants serving outside the hall to put away the scrolls on the table, put on makeup and changed clothes, and happily drove out with the servants of the fifth and sixth palaces. palace gate.

The palace gates of the imperial city are magnificently built.The huge gate inlaid with gilt ornaments seems to indicate that there are rare treasures that people in the world dream of hiding inside the gate.

Yao Huaiyuan turned his head to peek from the chariot covered with nine layers of green gauze, and vaguely remembered that a few years ago, she and Liangyu worshiped each other step by step, approaching the huge red door.

It would be great if Liangyu was in Kyoto.

Remembering that Chu Liangyu was still in the North, Yao Huaiyuan couldn't help being disappointed, but he didn't show this rare regret on his face.

Or in a few months, Liangyu will be able to welcome the triumphant return at the gate of the palace, right?

What should she give to welcome people?

Thinking about the reward for Chu Liangyu when he returned, Yao Huaiyuan suddenly heard the servant girl's words that he had arrived at Prince Han's residence.

has arrived?

He ordered the palace maid to knock on the door, Yao Huaiyuan closed his eyes.

Originally thought that Hanwang's mansion was remote, but who knew that he was only half a columnist, and the chariot arrived in front of the palace.

Knowing that the green shirt is the unique attire of the steward of Prince Han's residence, the maid walked quickly to the steward, explaining the purpose of her visit: "The one sitting on the chariot is the king...is King Han in the residence?"

"Lord?" Knowing that the chariot in front of the mansion is Luanjia, thin sweat broke out on the forehead of the housekeeper of Prince Han's mansion.

Because Yao Huaiyuan did not send a maid to make a point before this trip, there was no preparation in Prince Han's mansion.

"Master is in the mansion..." Knowing that the maidservant is the king's close friend, the steward can only deal with it carefully, "But, because I lit the lamp to read at night last night, the master made a mistake..."

Before the word "breakfast" was uttered, the palace servants clapped their hands in the air, summoned eight servants to change into light sedan chairs, and served Yao Huaiyuan as he got off the chariot.

"Even if King Han is in the residence, my sister should welcome His Majesty to leave the chariot as soon as possible."

After prudently talking to the steward, the servant girl turned around and stood in front of the king's sedan chair, and sang in harmony: "Enter the mansion!"

The sharp command made the people around him terrified.

In an instant, all the people in Hanwang's mansion fell to their knees and shouted: "Welcome to the holy car!".

"Excuse me."

Yao Huaiyuan was a little surprised when the butler entered the house.How could Hanyan not know the reason to go out to welcome the emperor when she was a little girl?Could it be that the girl cared about her sudden arrival and deliberately played tricks on her in front of the mansion?

"How is King Han?" Yao Huaiyuan was absent-minded as he was thinking about seeing the imperial sister.

"Return to Your Majesty. Everything is fine, master..." The steward carefully brought the holy driver into the mansion, but the butler looked unhappy.

Seeing that the housekeeper had other thoughts, Yao Huaiyuan cast his eyes on the railing not far away, and said calmly: "If there is something else, you can do it first... the only person waiting here is King Han... ..."

"This……"

The presence of the king in person is a huge matter, and there is no room for ambiguity.

but……

Seeing that the king seemed to be interested in the furnishings in the mansion, the steward hesitated for a moment, but decided to use the pretext of making tea and sent his maid to look for someone outside the mansion, then kowtowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your understanding."

"Go back."

Yao Huaiyuan nodded in agreement.

Seeing that the steward of Prince Han's mansion was so entrusted to him, all the accompanying maids were dissatisfied.Just because Yao Huaiyuan didn't speak, the maidservants could only follow behind Yao Huaiyuan, wandering around in Prince Han's mansion at will.

Prince Han's mansion is simple, without any extravagant decorations.

Therefore, not long after, Yao Huaiyuan lost interest.

"When will the master leave?"

Staring at the clumps of autumn chrysanthemums in the corner of the courtyard, Yao Huaiyuan asked questions.

The maidservant said: "Perhaps it has been an hour."

"An hour?"

Vaguely guessing that Han Yan is not at the house, Yao Huaiyuan is slightly absent-minded.

She never thought that Yao Hanyan would not be in the mansion.

According to etiquette, Hanyan and Yanqian should have been raised in the palace.Unexpectedly, her ears were soft, and she couldn't bear Han Yan saying in her ear that the imperial city was lonely, so she allowed her to leave the mansion.

The people outside the palace are no more aware of the seriousness than the maids in the palace.Worried that Han Yan would be humiliated outside, Yao Huaiyuan immediately ordered the palace maid to call the palace maid, and asked in a warm voice: "How long has King Han been out?"

"Return to Your Majesty. I don't know..."

The servant girl kneeling on the ground was like a frightened bird, shaking like chaff.

"How could you not know?" Seeing the change in the maidservant's complexion, the maidservant who was serving at the side hastily helped Yao Huaiyuan up before Yao Huaiyuan could speak, and said in a persuasive manner, "Sister, please rest assured that Your Majesty will not talk to you. Condemned..."

Maid Ren helped her, and the servant girl was so nervous that she grasped the handkerchief in her palm tightly. How could she have the guts to scold her master in front of the king? She was carrying a long whip in the early morning and went to Mingxiang's mansion to make trouble...

"The servant girl knows, knows..."

He prevaricated indiscriminately to help his elder sister, and the servant girl's legs became weak.

"Don't panic." Seeing the stalemate between the two servant girls in front of him, Yao Huaiyuan broke the siege, "If you don't want to say it, then don't say it..."

"This……"

The voice of the king's unbridled anger poured into the ears of the servant girl like a clear spring, and the servant girl was in a dilemma.She really didn't know whether to repay the king with the truth, or to show her loyalty and help her master play sloppy eyes in front of the king.

Bean big drops of sweat fell down, and the servant girl peeked at Yao Huaiyuan who looked normal, and her heart beat like a drum.

"Forget it, let's go." Waved his hand and ordered the maid to leave, Yao Huaiyuan turned his attention to the butler who came in a hurry.

Knowing that Han Yan was no longer at the residence, Yao Huaiyuan asked directly, "Where is Wen Xuan?"

When King Wen asked about Wen Xuan, the housekeeper turned pale.Wenxuan was the steward bestowed by King Yuanqin when King Han built his mansion.It is in the woodshed at the moment.If Wenxuan hadn't been imprisoned in the firewood room for contradicting the lord, how could she have had the opportunity to welcome the holy driver?

Bowing to offer the tea bowl to the king, the butler looked intently at the maidservant's face and replied, "Here... the prince is..."

The maid asked, "Where is it?"

"I...I don't know..." The butler gritted his teeth and resisted.

Seeing the housekeeper's sacrifice, Yao Huaiyuan wanted to return to the palace.She came here for Han Yan.Since Hanyan is not here, she will leave, there is no reason to stay in Hanyan's mansion to be scary.After ordering the palace servants to bring the cakes and jewels in the chariot to Hanyan, Yao Huaiyuan turned around and got on the sedan chair, and said: "When King Han returns to the mansion, he will say that the imperial sister misses her..."

Realizing that the king was about to leave, the steward standing in the hall was in a mess again.Before leaving, the prince had told him that if he did not return at noon, he would have to go to the palace to move the king to rescue him.At this moment, it was only half an hour before noon.If the prince didn't return to the mansion at noon, and she begged to go to the gate of the palace again, wouldn't she be asking for trouble?

Weighing the pros and cons, the butler's face wrinkled into bun folds.It won't work if you speak, and it won't work if you don't speak.She was really hurt by her little prince...

Forget it, kneel down on the ground with the determination that life is too cheap to speculate, the housekeeper cried bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, I beg you to go to the right minister's mansion to save the master!"

"Help?" Holding the jade tea bowl that was about to fall in his palm, Yao Huaiyuan waited for the butler to explain the whole story.

Ming Yuan is not a person who does good things, and she will definitely not provoke Han Yan for no reason and put her to death.

"Go back to the Holy One..." The steward was about to answer, meeting the King's gaze, but saw a figure behind him.

Who is this person?

I can't think of anyone in the mansion who has the courage to come to see the king, but the housekeeper swallowed the words that came to his lips.

Watching the swaying figure, Yao Huaiyuan did not speak.

She knows someone.

The visitor also knew her.

"Return to Your Majesty, the lord is for King Chang..." Then the butler continued, Wen Xuan's eyes were full of sadness.

"King Chang?" Worried about Han Yan's safety, Yao Huaiyuan couldn't care less about Wen Xuan.

Leaving a palace servant to look after him in the mansion, Yao Huaiyuan hastily changed into a sedan chair and went to the Ming mansion to investigate.

Seeing that the king was so impatient, Wen Xuan couldn't help frowning.Some things, the superior may not be able to see clearly than her.Mingming early when the king sent his Prime Minister to the south to visit King Chang unannounced, King Han felt resentful towards the king.

The king doesn't know...

However, after thinking about Ming Yuan's notorious sense of propriety, Wen Xuan laughed secretly at being mediocre.How can something go wrong when the king comes in person?Han Wanghe came back in the blink of an eye.

As Wen Xuan thought about it, she suddenly remembered that the maid in the mansion who rescued her from the woodshed had handed her a ball of paper.

paper ball?

He belatedly spread out the items in his sleeves, and the ink-colored "薨" made Wenxuan turn pale with shock.

Someone is going to assassinate?

Unintentionally thinking about where the note came from, Wen Xuan reached out and grabbed the maid who wanted to go to Hanwang's bedroom to check, and hurriedly asked: "How many people did your Majesty bring with you on this trip?"

"Hmm..." As if amused by Wen Xuan's behavior, the maid covered her lips and Wen Xuan stretched out two fingers.

"Two hundred?" Wen Xuan's pupils shrank slightly.Although the world is peaceful now, but the son of a daughter cannot sit still, how dare His Majesty bring only 200 people out of the imperial city?

"Heh." The servant girl laughed, "How could Your Majesty bring 200 people to Prince Han's Mansion? What's the matter, there should be a thousand people!"

When Wen Xuan heard this, she lightened her body, and a smile appeared on her face.Since the king brought more than a thousand people, the handwriting on the paper ball should be nonsense.

"I'm sorry, my sister..." Knowing that the king is safe, Wen Xuan was ready to leave.

Unexpectedly, before she could take three steps, the servant girl came to her ear just after she spoke.

"For this trip, counting the servants, His Majesty only brought eight people with him."

The maidservant's voice was so small that Wen Xuan thought the "eight" in the maidservant's mouth was an illusion.

Wen Xuan asked back: "Eight people?"

"Um……"

The palace maid nodded, and Wenxuan felt dizzy.

The treacherous come prepared, and they cannot be defeated by seven people.If there are really only seven people by the king's side, then the trip to the Ming Palace must be a disaster!
