However, the next day, Ping An still didn't have time to see Zhao Can's collection.Because the two had just got up, someone rushed to report that someone had come from the original palace, please pass safely.

The emperor, who had forgotten about peace for a long time, finally remembered him.

When he heard the news, Zhao Can was combing Ping'an's hair, when he heard this, his hand shook slightly, and tore off a piece of Ping'an's hair.

"Understood." He waved his hand to let people go down, turned his head and continued to comb his hair quietly, until he put on the crown for Ping An, and then said, "Go after breakfast."

"No need." Ping An said, "Go early and return early."

Zhao Can forced a smile and said, "That's fine."

Ping An went to change her clothes, and then planned to go out.When he got to the door, he couldn't help but turned his head and asked Zhao Can, "You seem to have something wrong today?"

In fact, he couldn't tell what was wrong.After all, his relationship with Zhao Can had a breakthrough just yesterday.The old relationship has been broken, and the new one hasn't been adjusted well, maybe there should be some abnormalities in the first place.But Ping An still felt something was wrong.

He didn't want to ask.

Maybe Zhao Can regretted it?At this time, he asked, did they say it or not?

But I don't know why, and I suddenly feel that I should ask.

The expression on Zhao Can's face changed slightly, but he quickly restrained himself, "Is there?"

Ping An looked at him steadily for a moment, then smiled, "It's fine if you don't. Then I'll go first." Zhao Can's performance was so obvious, but he didn't want him to know, so why bother to ask?

"Peace." But Zhao Can himself suddenly caught up and took his hand.

Ping An couldn't help being a little amused by this sticky appearance.He raised his head, put his hands on Zhao Can's shoulders, gnawed on Zhao Can's mouth with his head, and said in a low voice, "Wait for me."

Then turned around and left quickly.

After running out, he realized that he was still uncomfortable.Fortunately, after an afternoon and night of rest, bear with it, at least nothing can be seen on the surface.

Even though Ping An is not the kind of temperament that makes people easily, when faced with this kind of thing, he still can't help but feel a little shy.I feel uncomfortable when I think of such things, so I try my best to act as if nothing happened in front of Zhao Can.

It's actually good to go to see the emperor right now and separate from Zhao Can for a while.

Even though the progress of the two is far beyond Ping An's expectations, after thinking about it last night, Ping An still feels that even if they are happy with each other, there is still a need for a little distance between them, otherwise the relationship will soon be burnt out and unsustainable .

Distance produces beauty, and excessive intimacy may lose respect for each other.

With such thoughts flashing all the way, Ping An didn't seriously think about the upcoming face saint.After all, he did not see the emperor once or twice. Even though this time because of Xu Wenmei's matter, he had to be careful, but Ping An had been preparing for a long time, and he believed that there would be no problems.

It wasn't until he reached the gate of Benchu ​​Hall that he straightened his clothes and walked in solemnly.

Except for the emperor, there was no one in the hall, and the first question asked by the emperor shocked Ping An even more: "Where is your master?"

"Your Majesty... I don't understand what Your Majesty means." Ping An panicked for a moment, but quickly calmed down.As expected, this situation is also possible.It's just that it shouldn't be now, at least the emperor shouldn't have questioned this matter in the first place.

But no matter what, the answer must be given now.

The emperor snorted, "I don't have anyone serving here, and you don't have to play sloppy with me! The people below replied that your master is gone, do you think I will believe it?"

Pingan knelt down, and using his sleeves to cover up, he pinched his thigh hard.This action really worked, and while he was in pain, tears were streaming down his face, and there was a tear in his voice, "Your Majesty... I don't want to believe it, but this is the truth. I watched Master go with my own eyes."

Then buried his head deeply.

So he didn't see it, and there was a haze in the emperor's eyes.

"If you're talking about the corpse of someone who can't be seen clearly," he turned his head to stare at Ping An, and paused every word, "I have already asked Wu Zuo to examine the corpse, and he will definitely not be your master!"

The emperor was really suspicious, not only suspicious, but also sent someone to investigate!

Ping'an was flustered again, but luckily the emperor couldn't see his expression when he was acting now, and Ping'an soon came to his senses—don't care if the emperor suspected the investigation, but the result must be that he didn't investigate. to what.At least, he didn't find Xu Wenmei's whereabouts.

Otherwise, he would have already sent someone to arrest him, so why would he call himself here for questioning?His safety is not so important that the emperor is willing to give him one more chance to test it.

Thinking of this, Ping An regained his composure.Now that the emperor has checked, there is no need to lie at this time.If it hadn't been checked and it was confirmed that the person was definitely not Xu Wenmei, the emperor would not have called him.

The TV dramas are indeed deceptive. Whenever they see a bloody corpse, they will be so excited and nervous that they can't even see any flaws. If they want to live or die, they don't even think about whether the corpse is the person they are looking for. , it's all a lie.The emperor is not so easy to fool...

However, Ping An didn't know that he had actually fooled the emperor.When he first heard the news, the emperor was so shocked that he shouldn't have noticed any flaws.You may even be reluctant to see peace for a long time because of your sadness.After this period of time has passed, the deal is done. Even if there are any doubts, it is impossible to pursue it.

However, it was such an unfortunate coincidence that when the emperor had just heard the news and asked people to confirm it again and again because he couldn't believe it, he happened to notice the existence of Zhao Can's person.

The emperor was suspicious by nature, so he immediately became vigilant and vigilant, and then made people continue to investigate.After such an investigation, I realized that there are actually many strange things here. ——Ping An alone can do very little, so this strategy seems rigorous, but it is still full of loopholes when it is actually implemented.Fortunately, the emperor was in the game before, so he didn't think about this possibility, so he didn't notice it at all.

Finding out that he had been cheated, the emperor was naturally furious.But after all, the city is quite deep, so he didn't immediately call Pingan over for questioning, but asked his own people to investigate carefully, checking every place.Even——During the few days when Ping An and Zhao Can were fooling around, the emperor had already checked the capital, and felt that Xu Wenmei was no longer in the capital, but couldn't find a possible whereabouts, so he sent someone to call Ping An over. .

It was just such a mistake, something that was done so easily in Ping An, and it was impossible to hide it in front of the emperor.

Fortunately, the way Xu Wenmei was sent away was really unimaginable. Zhao Can didn't expect it, and only thought that Xu Wenmei had gone to the south of the Yangtze River, and the emperor didn't even find any clues.

Ping An actually wanted to tell the emperor his previous thoughts, such as "What do you think of my master?" and so on.But after thinking about it, he decided that he should not open his mouth to continue provoking the emperor.So he shut his mouth tightly.

It's just that he was honest, and the emperor might not be happy. He stared at Ping An for a while, but Ping An was still the same. The emperor was so angry that he lifted his foot and put Ping An on his back, "Speak!"

Ping An's body was shaken by the kick, but soon stabilized, "Even if His Majesty has found out, I have nothing to say. Please punish him."

"Punishment? I come to ask you, how to punish the crime of deceiving the emperor?" The emperor glared at Ping An.

"Go back to the emperor and die."

"You deserve to die! So you are not afraid of death? Good! I have never seen before that you are such a bloody talent! Since you are not afraid of death, then I will make your life worse than death!" the emperor said loudly. Angry, he raised his voice and was about to call someone in, "You hide your master at the expense of your body, I want to see if he can bear it after hearing about you!"

Xu Wenmei has already left, of course it is impossible to know the news.After all, even if the emperor really kills a little eunuch, it is impossible to spread it all over the world.So Ping An heard his threat, but just pretended not to hear it.

However, the emperor's reaction made Ping An even more puzzled.In fact, it is strange that the emperor attaches great importance to Xu Wenmei, but after all, he is the emperor, and he used to be very measured in his actions, so he is not sure about his safety.However, his almost out-of-control reaction now made Pingan sure that the emperor definitely had affection for Xu Wenmei.And still deeply emotional.

Ping An doesn't care what the emperor thinks, even if he is really affectionate, just looking at his dozen or so sons is enough to make people sick.If it is ruthless, it can be said to be a matter of course, but since it is merciful, it cannot be tolerated.

Especially after Ping An made love to Zhao Can, this feeling became even more obvious.He substituted himself, if he was in the position of master, if Zhao Can dared to "love" himself while marrying a wife and having children without any delay, and his son took advantage of each other, he would have already thought of a way to kill Zhao Can up!

Xu Wenmei didn't do anything, probably because she grew up in the palace and didn't have so many rebellious thoughts.Of course, the most important thing is that Ping An feels that Xu Wenmei has no feelings for the emperor, and this is what makes him happiest.Because there is no bloody drama of sadomasochism in it.

At the moment when Ping An was silent, Zhang Dongyuan had already been called in by the emperor, and was listening to the emperor's order with a sullen face, "Let the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs come over."

The Ministry of Internal Affairs is in charge of supervising eunuchs, as well as punishment and other matters.Calling them over now is to punish Ping An.Zhang Dongyuan has been very close to Ping An in the past few years, and now he can't help but look at Ping An worriedly.But since it was the emperor's order, he didn't dare to disobey, and hurried out to call someone.

He is the chief steward next to the emperor, and most things can't be hidden from him.He also knew of Xu Wenmei's existence, and he also knew that the person was missing, and that it had something to do with Pinna—the emperor asked the people from the Imperial City Department to investigate this matter, and he personally supervised it.

In fact, if Ping An hadn't been fooled by Zhao Can's beauty and stayed honestly in the Maoxin Hall these few days, but had come out for a walk, he would have been able to get the news early.After all, although the Secretary of the Imperial City was handed over, most of the people still turned to him.

However, he hid in Maoxin Palace, so that everyone could not find a way to report the news.

During the period before the Ministry of Internal Affairs came, Ping An thought that the emperor would say something, but the strange thing was that he didn't speak any more. He just paced slowly not far from Ping An, as if to give him Create more stress.But when Ping An was kneeling, he could only see the hem of the dragon robe and the looming upper of his shoes.

The emperor only stared at Ping An when Zhang Dongyuan's informant arrived, "I will ask you last, where is your master?"

"I don't know either." Ping An finally found a more appropriate way of saying, "Master just said he wanted to leave, but I don't know where he went."

The emperor seemed to believe this explanation, and he snorted, "Why didn't your master take you away? Could it be that in his eyes, your apprentice has run out of use value, so he threw it away?" He even felt that this matter was conspiratorial. The matter Xu Wenmei began to arrange seven years ago, and the purpose of accepting Ping An as an apprentice was to escape from the palace.

He didn't say it, but Ping An heard it from his words.I don't feel funny in my heart.If Master really wanted to leave before, why wait until now?Although Ping An tried his best to help, in all fairness, he felt that Xu Wenmei could still go without him.It's just that the method is different.

Pingan didn't even have the intention to deny the emperor's conjecture, so he lowered his head and remained silent.A high-ranking person takes everything for granted, and also does not take "weak" people seriously.Therefore, the emperor's liking for Xu Wenmei is not so much an admiration for his sweetheart, but a possessive desire for the toys he owns. It seems that he attaches great importance to it, but it is actually dispensable.

Because he has too many things to replace.

This situation was too suggestive, and Ping An couldn't help but think of himself.

What about Zhao Can?One day when he ascends the throne, will he also become such a disgusting face as the emperor?How can the so-called relationship survive at that time?Or, does he want to make a clean break?

"I stayed voluntarily." Ping An said, "If I didn't stay, how could His Majesty believe that Master is dead?"

So Ping An was not deceived and bewitched by Xu Wenmei, but did it on purpose knowing that he was deceiving the king!The emperor gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! Zhang Dongyuan, let me make you stick forty!"

Staff punishment should have dragged people out so as not to hinder the emperor's eyes.But the emperor just stared at Pingan for a moment, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs did not dare to act rashly, so they simply did it here.

When Ping An was pushed to the ground, he still had some thoughts of preferring death to surrender, but when the first stick fell, he couldn't help but yelled.

It was really unfortunate that the stick hit the buttocks.He just used it here yesterday, and it wasn't good in the first place. Now that he hit it, he didn't jump up directly.Of course, it may also be too painful to jump up.As for patience and persistence, Ping An, who is so afraid of pain, has already seen the horizon.

It was probably the most grotesque caning ever executed by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.The person who was beaten was screaming, but he didn't admit his mistake, so that the emperor could calm down.And they also felt a little guilty amidst the yelling: Did the beating really hurt so much?Or... it's better to take it easy?

The emperor frowned fiercely, upset by Ping'an's shouts, and couldn't help but said, "Zhang Dongyuan, shut his mouth!"

Zhang Dongyuan quickly took a handkerchief, wrapped it casually, ran over and stuffed it into Ping An's mouth.

Ping An bit the towel and finally stopped screaming.But the emperor didn't feel much better.He frowned and stared at Ping An for a while, his eyes flickered, and he noticed what Ping An was wearing around his waist, and said quickly, "Stop!"

When the person stopped, he quickly walked over, grabbed the thing around Ping An's waist, held it up and looked at it for a while, then turned his head and asked Ping An, "Where did this come from?"

"..." Ping An's mouth was gagged, and of course he couldn't speak.Moreover, although the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs kept their hands later, he has been beaten with nearly twenty sticks, and now his head is full of pain. He didn't even hear what the emperor asked, and of course he couldn't answer.

The emperor straightened up, waved his hands, let everyone go out, and asked Zhang Dongyuan to help them up, took off the towel, and then brought the things in front of his eyes and asked, "He gave this to you?"

Only then did Ping An hear his question, his eyes slid from the thing, and he knew it in his heart.

That thing was given by Xu Wenmei.It's nothing more than an ordinary net. At most, the piece of jade that falls on the head is not bad, but for the emperor, I'm afraid it's not even worthy of the upper body.At that time Xu Wenmei only said that it was to commemorate him, but she didn't expect the emperor to recognize it. Maybe it was because of this thing that she saved herself from a half-beating.

Ping An couldn't help thinking that the master was unreliable, since he left a life-saving talisman, he should explain it clearly earlier!If I took it out earlier, wouldn't the beating be saved?

"He actually gave this to you." The emperor looked at Ping An with complicated eyes, and said something himself without waiting for Ping An's answer.Then put the thing in the palm of his hand, stood up, went to sit down next to the case, waved to Zhang Dongyuan, "Send him away."

"Your Majesty, where are you sending it?" Zhang Dongyuan asked with some embarrassment.

The emperor didn't seem to have thought about this question, so he paused and said, "Send it to the boss! Let him boil the water there to wake me up!"

"Yes." Zhang Dongyuan immediately went out holding Ping An, and then handed it over to the people waiting outside.Fortunately, he is not usually considered pampered, otherwise he might not be able to hug him.After handing over the person, he whispered again, "Be gentle, be careful, don't bump into each other, and send it over."

The beating the emperor gave Ping An was like a farce.Besides, Zhang Dongyuan could see clearly that the emperor clearly didn't really intend to punish Ping An, but just taught him a lesson.With such kindness, even I can't help being jealous!

So he sent the man to the mess hall, and he personally greeted the person in charge here, telling him not to be embarrassed and safe, and let him recover from his injuries.Then turn back to see peace.

At this moment, Ping An somewhat recovered, lay on the bed and asked him, "Director Zhang, do you know what's going on?"

Zhang Dongyuan couldn't help sighing, "I said it's safe, you have annoyed His Majesty this time. Can we handle the big matter of deceiving the emperor? How confused! Fortunately, Your Majesty doesn't care about you, otherwise there is no life Here!" Since His Majesty is merciful, he naturally has to say more good things, lest Ping An care about this in his heart.

Ping An didn't care about this, so he continued to ask, "How did the emperor know?"

"It's just a coincidence." Zhang Dongyuan sighed, "Don't you know that you live in the Maoxin Palace? The people of His Royal Highness are also investigating this matter. It happened that the two sides met together, but they both found suspicious points. His Royal Highness did not accompany you. explain?"

Ping An's heart jumped, and Zhao Can's uncomfortable expression when he heard that the emperor sent someone to find him quickly flashed in his mind.

Obviously, Zhao Can had expected this for a long time, but he never confessed to himself, so that Pingan could have a psychological preparation.Thinking of this, Ping An couldn't help but feel chills in his heart. The previous tenderness and sweetness were like dew in the sun, evaporated without a trace.

Zhao Can concealed this matter from him, who knows if there are other things?

Zhang Dongyuan understood it when he saw his expression.He didn't know that Ping'an and Zhao Can still had this entanglement, he only thought that the two got closer after the Wenhui, so he persuaded, "Your Majesty asked you to help him, but it wasn't for you to follow him all the time. The Seventh Highness is afraid of you, and he is not sincere, this is to investigate your affairs, and he wants to take advantage of you! You should be more careful in the future."

This sentence was not insincere, it was very rare for Zhang Dongyuan to talk about his master.Knowing that he was selling himself well, Ping An couldn't help but be moved, "Don't worry, Mr. Zhang, I can save it. I won't be stupid again in the future."

Yes, one time is enough for being stupid.If he can fall into the same ditch twice, it will not be described as "stupid".

Zhang Dongyuan arranged the place very well before leaving.After he left, there were naturally people here who came to see Ping An and expressed their concern.When he finally calmed down, Ping An finally closed his eyes and buried his face in the pillow.

He had expected what happened today, and it was nothing to him.It doesn't matter if you are punished by the emperor, there is always a way to overcome this hurdle.

What really terrified him was the matter of Zhao Can.

When he was living in Maoxin Palace and staying with Zhao Can intimately, Zhao Can was secretly investigating him!Ping An remembered Zhao Can asking herself if she would forgive him if he did something wrong.He also said that it was a matter of human life... Maybe at that time, he already had some regrets.

But what if you regret it?After all, he still didn't think about telling himself about this matter, and the two of them faced and resolved it together, but continued to conceal and escape——
