Episode 56: The Royal Gold Medal

Ji Xia Mo was idle for only two days, Qin Yan came to the Prime Minister's Mansion again with the escort, but this time with Qin Yan's arrival, there was also an edict, Emperor Fengyuan quickly summoned Ji Xia Mo into the palace.

At a loss for what to do in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Ji Xia Mo received the holy decree and returned to the Plum Garden in silence, standing in front of the bluestone steps of the door, looking at the gloomy sky and silent for a long time.

A cloak fell on Ji Xiamo's shoulder, and Jin Wuji carefully tied his tie for Ji Xiamo. "It's windy today, don't stay out for long."

"Xia Mo." Qin Yan walked over and gestured outside. "The carriage is ready, it's time to go."

Ji Xia Mo squinted at the black clouds, as if he was saying to himself, "I'm afraid it's raining today." ”

"Childe, bring an umbrella." Seeing that Ji Xia Mo was in a bad mood, Aoki cautiously catered to him.

Ji Xia Mo glanced at Aoki, raised the corners of his lips, and turned into the house. "Brother Jin, I'm afraid I'm going to cool down today, so you can add two more clothes."

This time he was ordered to enter the palace, Ji Xiamo refused the entourage arranged by Ji Ye, and only brought Jin Wuji alone.

Along the way, Ji Xia Mo closed his eyes calmly and relaxedly, Qin Yan was dressed in a black and gold official uniform, riding a high-headed horse and following the carriage, and wanted to ask several times, but he wanted to stop talking.

Emperor Fengyuan's summons had already been expected by Ji Xiamo, but it was earlier than he thought.

The carriage stopped in front of the palace gate, and Ji Xiamo got out of the carriage and was led by Qin Yan and entered the inner palace unimpeded.

Qin Yan leaned against Ji Xiamo, his lips did not move and lowered his voice. "Xia Mo, what does the emperor intend to summon?"

Ji Xia Mo glanced at Qin Yan, rubbed his nose and learned from Qin Yan's appearance, smiling in a bad way. "The sacred heart is unpredictable, and the grass people dare not speculate."

"Ji Xiamo, it's itchy and itchy, haven't you cleaned it up?" Qin Yan glared, and raised his hand to greet Ji Xia Mo's head.

"Brother Jin~~~" Ji Xiamo's head shrank, and he begged for protection pitifully. Jin Wuji glanced at Qin Yan lightly, and the broken dye in his hand moved three points, and the cold hilt of the sword was against Qin Yan's lower back. Qin Yan's body stiffened, glared at Ji Xia Mo angrily, and drooped down with an aggrieved expression.

Ji Xiamo pillowed his head with his hands, not thinking that it was too big to look at the excitement. Qin Yan grinded his teeth, eager to rush over and put down Ji Xia Mo's face and bite twice, but with Jin Wuji, a god of evil, blocking it, he couldn't beat it, and he held back the fire in his belly.

The three of them came to the outside of the imperial study, and the little eunuch who had been waiting greeted them one by one. "Eldest son Ji, the emperor is already waiting inside."

Ji Xia Mo took off his cloak and handed it to Jin Wuji, "Brother Jin, Qin Xiaoyan, the two of you are waiting for me outside." ”

The door of the imperial study was opened, and after Ji Xia Mo entered, it was quickly closed. Qin Yan frowned and glanced around, slightly anxious.

"Father-in-law, I don't know why the emperor is so eager to summon the prince into the palace?" Qin Yan leaned over to the little eunuch and asked in a low voice.

The little eunuch bowed and took a step back, and said with a smile. "This holy mind, how can we as minions guess? However, Qin Guards don't have to worry, the emperor seems to be in a good mood today, and he won't embarrass the eldest son Ji in the future. ”

"You ......"

"Qin Gongzi." Jin Wuji interrupted Qin Yan, who wanted to continue to ask, Qin Yan raised his head and bumped into Jin Wuji's cold eyes, and his heart suddenly cooled, and he knew that he was reckless, so he had to shut down, and waited aside with dissatisfaction.

Ji Xia Mo entered the imperial study and secretly looked around. The Panlong golden furnace is filled with a hazy incense mist, the sandalwood carvings are circling and the eaves on all sides are lifelike, and the agarwood board is inlaid with jade. In the center of the main hall, there is a bright moon orb, carved with golden lotus on all sides, and the ghostly light of the orb adds a bit of mystery to the quiet imperial study.

Through the two doors, Ji Xia Mo came to the inner room, and at a glance saw Emperor Fengyuan sitting behind the desk and resting with his head.

Ji Xiamo hesitated for a moment, but still leaned over and knelt down, and made a big salute, "See the emperor for the grass people." ”

There was no answer in the middle of the sound, Ji Xia Mo raised his head and peeked, but saw that Emperor Fengyuan was asleep and couldn't wake up, paused, bowed again, and raised his voice. "The grass people see the emperor!!"

Emperor Fengyuan still didn't respond, Ji Xiamo was about to shout again, but Emperor Fengyuan suddenly interrupted Ji Xiamo's breath. "Okay, when you say this, I'm afraid that the guards are going to rush in."

With a sigh of relief, Ji Xiamo puffed out his little red face, looking at Emperor Fengyuan with embarrassment, a little resentful.

Emperor Fengyuan opened his eyes, took a sip of cold tea and leaned on the back of the chair, and let out a light breath of turbidity, and then put his eyes on Ji Xiamo, who was kneeling.

Being seen by Emperor Fengyuan, Ji Xiamo couldn't help but bury his head and timidly tugged at the hem of his clothes. Emperor Fengyuan sneered, and his indifferent expression made it impossible to distinguish whether he was happy or angry. "I've sent everyone out, if you don't want to knock your head up, you won't be tired, I'm tired of looking at it."

Ji Xiamo's eyes widened, and he looked at Emperor Fengyuan with a dripping look, shocked and suspicious, his knees shook weakly, and he almost knelt down.

Ji Xia Mo stood up tremblingly, rubbing his slightly sore leg with one hand, and pestle dryly, not knowing how to speak.

Emperor Fengyuan looked at Ji Xia Mo and snorted, and casually picked up the fold on the case and looked at it. "What? Scared? ”

"Yes." Nodded obediently.

"If you're afraid, kowtow obediently, lest you bump into me and cut off your head."

"You can't kneel." Ji Xiamo shook his head, looking innocent. "I have a problem with my legs and lack of calcium."

"......" Emperor Fengyuan

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Emperor Fengyuan frowned, closed the fold in his hand and threw it on the table. Ji Xia Mo leaned over, not daring to raise his head.

Emperor Fengyuan stared at Ji Xia Mo for a while, and suddenly laughed. "I can't eat or sleep these days, but you look good."

"Back to the emperor, the grass people think less, eat well, and sleep naturally heavily."

"Your heart is wide." Emperor Fengyuan's smile, the originally condensed and heavy atmosphere suddenly relaxed. Ji Xiamo's face was not obvious, but he breathed a heavy sigh of relief in his heart.

"Ji Xiamo, do you remember the letter you presented that day?" Speaking of business, Emperor Fengyuan's expression became stern again.

"Yes." Ji Xiamo was silent for a moment, and suddenly bowed his hand deeply. "The grass people can help the emperor and relieve the danger of protecting the country."

Qin Yan walked back and forth outside the imperial study, his face full of anxiety, Jin Wuji waited unmoving, although his face was expressionless, the hand holding the sword was constantly tightening.

"Escort Jin, you said that Xia Mo has been in for so long, why hasn't he come out yet?" Qin Yan scratched his head, looking at the closed imperial study, eager to break in.

Emperor Fengyuan suddenly summoned today, although he didn't say what was going on, but Jin Wuji could clearly perceive the heaviness under Ji Xiamo's smile, that heaviness, decisively, was something that Jin Wuji had never seen in Ji Xiamo, which made him a little flustered.

The sun went from noon to the west, and the door of the imperial study, which had been closed, finally opened, and Ji Xiamo walked out with a calm expression.

"Xia Mo!" Qin Yan was overjoyed, and hurriedly greeted him, looking Ji Xiamo up and down.

"What an expression!" Ji Xia Mo slapped Qin Yan's face angrily. "I'm not going to the execution ground, my master has been unlucky these days, so don't give me mildew."

"I'm worried about you." Sure that Ji Xiamo was fine, Qin Yan directly smashed his fist on Ji Xiamo's shoulder, and scolded happily. "Lao Tzu has guarded you until now, you haven't eaten yet, and you're dying of hunger!"

Looking at Qin Yan with his teeth and claws smiling, Ji Xiamo was amused, and his heart warmed slightly. "Can you get out of the palace? Master invites you to a big meal. ”

"A must!" Qin Yan flicked the broken hair on his forehead, and his face was blind.

Jin Wuji walked to Ji Xiamo's side and put the cloak in his hand back onto Ji Xiamo's shoulder.

"Xia Mo, what are you holding in your hand?" Seeing Jin Wuji take the things in Ji Xiamo's hand, Qin Yan saw the two extra things in Ji Xiamo's hand.

"A holy decree, a ......" Ji Xiamo's hand rested on a brocade box, paused for a moment, and slowly opened the brocade box.

"This is ......" Qin Yan's eyes widened, his face shocked and stunned. Royal Gold Medal !! ”

The gold medal in the brocade box is engraved with the surname of the 'Feng' family, and the gold medal of the dragon and phoenix characters is like the emperor coming in person, and the prince and the prince will also bow down when they see it.

Ji Xia Mo closed the brocade box, stretched lazily, squinted at the half-scattered dark clouds in the sky, and said in a low voice. "Brother Jin, I seem to have caused myself a lot of trouble again."

Jin Wuji looked at Ji Xiamo's slightly tired eyebrows, stretched out a hand and slowly held Ji Xiamo's shoulder.

I've always been there. ’

Ji Xiamo glanced at Jin Wuji, smiled slightly, and suddenly clenched his fists into the sky. "Qin Xiaoyan!! Location: Outside the palace gate, the target, big pork buns! Come on!!! ”

"Rush ......," Qin Yan nodded mu.

Ji Xiamo ran for less than two steps, then suddenly stopped again, looked back at Jin Wuji with teary eyes, and opened his hands pitifully. "Brother Jin, my feet are soft~~~~"

"......" Jin Wouji
