Deep ice

Huaihuai caught up with He Yan, "Brother He, why are you walking so fast?"

He Yan said: "Don't look back."

Huaihuai looked back, and met Xilian's eyes just in time.

Hurrying to turn his head, Huaihuai stiffened his neck, "How did the two of us get ahead of the emperor?"

He Yan frowned fiercely, "Didn't I tell you not to look back!"

Huai Huai twitched the corner of his mouth, "I'm not going back."

He Yan said angrily: "Didn't you just turn around!"

Huai Huai said slowly: "I won't come back next time."

Following He Yan for two quick steps, he remembered what he had just said, "How did the two of us get in front of the emperor? Could it be that you used lightness kung fu?"

He Yan snorted coldly, "Stupid, of course he turned back."

Huai Huai pulled He Yan's sleeve, and discussed in a low voice: "Brother He, can you walk slowly, I can also say something to the emperor."

He Yan quickened his pace, "If you run now, he will definitely catch you and question you."

Huai Huai said urgently: "Really?"

He Yan said: "Nonsense."

When Huaihuai heard the words, he ran away.

The group behind was about to catch up, but unexpectedly the idiot ran away Xi Lian was a little dumbfounded, and raised his eyes to look at the emperor.

Yuan Jing's eyes were like cold lights, and his anger could not be calmed down, "Catch!"

Xi Lian suddenly understood, and turned to look at the guard at the side, "Hurry up and arrest him."

Huaihuai was running with a wind blowing in his ears, he had occasional thoughts of hesitation, thinking of what He Yan had just said, he ran forward desperately, but not long after, he heard the clanging of iron behind him, and the sound of the scabbard hitting was getting closer , Huai Huai stopped abruptly, and several guards passed by beside him.

Huaihuai laughed loudly, "Can't stop?"

After speaking, he was pushed to the ground by the guards after him and ate two mouthfuls of mud.

Seeing Huaihuai's ashen face rubbing against the ground, Yuan Jing let out a sigh of relief, but when the guards led him forward, he was a little at a loss for a moment.

Just as he was about to shout back, he saw the man knelt on the ground very happily, kowtowed his head, and flattered him extremely, "Your Majesty, you sent someone to arrest me, but you want me to go back with you?"

Yuan Jing almost lost his temper when he heard the words, and was about to get angry, but Xi Lian scolded sharply, "Don't be rude in front of the emperor!"

Huaihuai looked down at himself for a while, "Eunuch, I'm kneeling."

Xi Lian was taken aback, "Nonsense! Why did you run away just now?"

Huai Huai turned to look at Yuan Jing, eyes full of affection, "Naturally because I want to see the emperor."

Only then did Yuan Jing understand.

Thinking about how I was so obsessed with ghosts just now, how I got angry with that fool in front of these people, and then how I missed him and followed behind him... Unexpectedly, I was fooled by that fool. The intention is obvious.

Yuan Jing was in extreme embarrassment for a moment, a red layer appeared on his ears, and he was speechless for a long time.

Xi Lian saw it, and hurriedly opened his mouth to drink,

"A daring lunatic who dares to tease the emperor, what should he do!"

Huai Huai couldn't tolerate others at all, seeing Yuan Jing's embarrassment, he felt that he was handsome and lovely, "Your Majesty, do you like the things I gave you earlier?"

Yuan Jing felt overwhelmed with depression, and after a long silence, he calmed down a little, and said coldly, "Throw it away."

Revenge in general.

Huaihuai smiled, and answered irrelevantly, "Since the emperor likes what I gave, why don't you give me one next time?"

Yuan Jing's face turned blue, and he waved his hand, "Come here—"

The guard said in a low voice.

"Send this fool back to the palace!"

After finishing speaking, he led a group of people to escape towards the Imperial Study Room.

Xi Lian was a little out of breath following behind Yuan Jing, but he couldn't stay too far away from the emperor, so he gritted his teeth and stepped up, until the fool's guard behind him was dragged out of sight, and then he relaxed a little.

Yuan Jing slowed down his pace, his brows were lightly frowned, and something was on his mind.After entering the hall, he sat down and stared at the spinning top in front of the dragon table for a long time.

Right now, the resentment is getting stronger and stronger, but it looks like he wants to lose but is reluctant to part with it.

Xi Lian pursed his lower lip hard and put a smile on his face, pretending not to see it.

Sure enough, after a while, Yuan Jing's voice was calm and cold,

"It's not a good deal."

Xi Lian raised his eyes and looked over, Yuan Jing was frowning slightly, playing with the hard knife in his hand.

The whole body of the hard man is carved from sheep fat jade, and the top is an excellent sheep mane, which is gentle and decent, it is really top grade.

Xi Lian pondered for a moment, and was about to speak, but Yuan Jing said to himself, "It would be a waste to lose it, why don't we just give it to that idiot."

How dare Xi Lian question it, and hurriedly bowed his head to agree, "What the emperor said is reasonable, anyway, it's not a good thing, it's better to give it to that fool, it's considered reciprocity, the emperor treats people like this, and he can earn a good reputation for it, really It’s a multi-tasking…”

Yuan Jing couldn't stand it anymore, and threw the pen to Xi Lian, "Okay, take it."

Xi Lian arched his body deeply, "I'll do it now, my servant."

Yuan Jing didn't make a sound, wanted to read and practice calligraphy, but he could touch it, the place where the pen is usually separated was empty, so he stretched out his hand angrily, "pen."

Xi hurriedly took another one from the pen holder, and handed it up respectfully.

Yuan Jing took the pen, and then remembered that he had temporarily turned back to the imperial study, but Tian Chongguang was still waiting in the front hall, so he said coldly: "Call Tian Chongguang here."

-

Huaihuai watched the guards leave Weiyang Palace, sighed faintly, turned around, and happened to see He Yan standing behind his head with his hands folded, with a solemn expression on his face.

"Brother He, why did you come back?"

He Yan said straight away: "I really wanted to leave, but you were tied back, right?"

Huaihuai's eyes showed warmth, "Brother He, I knew you couldn't worry about me."

He Yan said: "Enough."

Huaihuai stepped forward and held his hand, "Brother He, the idea you gave me just now is really a good idea. The emperor couldn't catch up, and even specially asked someone to take me there. I saw his cheeks were flushed, as if Extremely shy, really like me like tight."

He Yan shook his hands and sneered, "That's true."

Huai Huai's eyes fixed on He Yan, "Brother He, I will always listen to you from now on."

He Yan thought for a moment, "Then don't talk to me in front of people from now on."

Huaihuai was puzzled, "Why?"

He Yan said: "If people see it, they will only despise you."

Huai Huai said: "Brother He is such a good-looking talent, and he is smart and strong. Standing with Brother He, I feel that I have a bright face."

He Yan's eyes were full of hostility, "I don't think you are very good."

Huaihuai waved his hand, "Do you think I will believe it? If you don't like me, why would you follow me every day?"

While talking, I saw some white-faced eunuchs coming from a distance, and seeing Huai Huai standing at the door, he pushed and smiled, "Master, this is a reward from the emperor."

After finishing speaking, he turned to one side, and the little eunuch behind walked forward a few steps, raising his hands high, holding a long box made of golden nanmu wood, elegant and neat, with natural lines.

Huaihuai was overjoyed, "The emperor rewarded me?"

The eunuch's face froze, "Master, you have to kneel down to thank you."

Huai Huai knelt on the ground, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward."

The little eunuch offered the wooden box, took a few steps back, and then straightened up.

A few eunuchs stood at the gate of Weiyang Palace and greeted Huaihuai for a long time, and they said congratulatory words, but Huaihuai refused to agree, just smiled silly for a while, got up and ran into the palace.

Leave a group of people waiting for a reward to stare outside.

Huaihuai took He Yan into the palace, "Brother He, the emperor rewarded me with something."

He Yan looked at the box coldly, "Open it and have a look."

Huaihuai tilted his head, "That won't work, you guess first."

He Yan said: "Believe it or not, I smashed it for you?"

Huaihuai didn't seem to hear it, and smiled happily, "The emperor really used things to express his love..."

He Yan turned around and wanted to leave, "I don't have the time to mess with you."

Huaihuai hastily pulled someone away, "Don't go, I'll just open it, you... are really dull..."

Then he let go of his hand again, and carefully opened the golden nanmu box, the one lying in the red velvet, the whole body was white, it turned out to be a tough jade handle.

Huaihuai cheered, "The emperor is urging me because he thinks I can't write well."

He Yan squinted at him, "Isn't it just a pen? Why is it so rare?"

Huaihuai held the pen in his hand, clicked his tongue, "It's really a good thing, it's so white."

He Yan took it over, looked at it for a while, and then threw it back into the box, "The workmanship is not bad, and it is also a high-quality mutton fat jade, but it is worth two dollars."

Huaihuai hurriedly went up to cover the box, "Be careful not to break it, it was given to me by the emperor."

He Yan felt cold all over his body, and he walked out of the house a few steps, but he wanted to be farther away from Huaihuai.

Seeing that He Yan had gone out, Huaihuai hesitated for a moment, quickly put the pen back and stuffed it into the brocade quilt, then turned around and pushed it out again.

"Brother He, what are you doing?"

He Yan didn't turn his head back, "Try your luck."

-

After the morning court, Xilian sent a message to Tian Chongguang to wait in the Fudao Hall, but he looked at the noon, but there was no sign of the emperor.

Tian Chongguang, dressed in bright red court clothes, stood outside the majestic palace, slandering for a long time.

After waiting for about half an hour, I saw an old eunuch approaching from a distance.

The old eunuch approached, so he bowed his body forward,

"Master Tian, ​​the emperor uploaded you to the imperial study."

Tian Chongguang took a breath, and said in a gentle voice, "Thank you, father-in-law."

The old eunuch bowed his head, "My lord, please—"

Red walls and green tiles, the deep palace stretches.

Tian Chongguang followed behind the leading eunuch, and within about an hour of incense sticks, he arrived at the place, but something unexpected happened outside the imperial study.

In fact, it is not a surprise.

Under the scarlet palace wall, the man's eyes looked straight at him like bows and arrows fully drawn, not at all the panic of that day and night, but rather the long-lost toughness, ready to go.

Huai Huai watched He Yan staring at the official, and was about to say a word, but remembered what He Yan had told him before, and swallowed the words that came to his mouth.

He Yan saw Tian Chongguang from afar, thought for a moment, and decided to take a gamble.

The worst thing is to die again.

The old eunuch didn't notice it, and just lowered his head to lead the way.

Tian Chongguang's blood was on his face, and he saw the man move his mouth towards him, but he didn't make a sound.

But Tian Chongguang could see clearly.

He Yan said,

"I'll wait for you to come out."

Tian Chongguang was dumbfounded, and led the old eunuch into the imperial study.
