Chapter 3: The Emperor's Heart

"How can this palace be willing to let people touch you, it is natural that this palace will do it himself, so that he can have fun." Bai Lichu's eyes looked at the demonic nature that sent chills down his spine, and with a sweep of his fingertips, he lifted the hem of her robe and peeked in, while whispering in her ear, his voice was gentle and cold.

"But first, you have to go to your clothes like this."

She thought that he must have known about the things when Yuan Ze stayed with her, and she wanted to explain something, but she felt that it was not a good thing to mention Yuan Ze at this time.

It was just between hesitation that I suddenly heard a few knocks on the door behind me, and the knock was a little faint and hesitant.

Qiu Yebai breathed a sigh of relief instantly, but she didn't want to, her waist was cold, and a cool hand had unceremoniously probed directly into her chest, and the cold touch on her sensitive skin and the pressure on her chest made her can't help but tremble, snorted, and grabbed his hand.

"Ah Chu, someone is knocking on the door."

"Let him die." Bai Li Chu said lightly, and unbuttoned her chest by the way.

As soon as these words came out, the knock on the door seemed to disappear in an instant, and Bai Li Chu was about to continue to peel and wash and shabu the 'tender meat' in front of him, but after a while, the knock sounded again.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”

This time, the knock on the door was extremely firm.

Bai Lichu raised her eyes and stared at the door, the cold light under her eyes was faint, almost making her feel that the temperature of the door behind her had dropped a little.

"Your Highness, someone is knocking on the door!" She grabbed his wrist and gasped a little wolfishly.

The people in the Mingguang Hall are all human spirits, and it must be urgent to disturb the master at this time.

Bai Li Chu glanced at her lightly, and after a moment, he let go of his hand, allowing her to quickly turn behind the screen to tidy up her clothes.

"Hongu hopes to hear a suitable reason to disturb Hongu's eating in a while." He stared at the door indifferently.

The door trembled for a moment, and then slowly opened, revealing a white and depressed feminine and handsome face, he glanced at his master's face a little nervously and couldn't see the love, and then immediately lowered his head, and secretly scolded Shuangbai and Lao Zhen's ancestors for eighteen generations.

Every time there is such an unfortunate thing, those two always slip away the fastest, and he is the one to clean up the mess!

Who doesn't know that when His Royal Highness eats, whether it is eating vegetables or eating people, he hates people to disturb him the most, and he has been better in recent years, and there are still people who don't have long eyes in the early years, so the end is .......

Yibai trembled, and then sighed secretly, but this time, it was indeed something that could not be passed on.

He raised his hand and said respectfully: "Back to Your Highness, Your Majesty has summoned Lord Qiu." ”

Yibai said a little uneasily, and he didn't know if this was a suitable reason.

"The old man wants to summon Xiaobai?"

"His Majesty the Emperor wants to summon me?"

The cold voice of Baili Chu and the sound of Autumn Leaf Bai who had just sorted out his clothes and walked out from behind the screen sounded at the same time.

Autumn leaves looked at Yibai in amazement, did she hear it right?

In the past ten years, His Majesty the Emperor, who has always been sick, has not summoned any ministers except for occasional festivals.

At this moment, His Majesty the Emperor actually wanted to summon her.

"Yes." Ichibaku looked at her, then nodded affirmatively.

She was a little unsure why, why did His Majesty the Emperor summon her, if it was because of the crisis of the fall of southern Xinjiang, then it should also be other generals who should be summoned, not her?

She looked at Bailichu, but saw that Bailichu was also looking at her, seeing the confusion in her eyes, his expression was also a little strange, which showed that Ah Chu also didn't know the emperor's purpose for summoning her.

Baili Chu pondered for a moment before curling the corners of his lips slightly: "Since it was summoned by His Majesty the Emperor, let's go." ”

……*……*……*……*……

When Qiu Yebai followed the two eunuchs on the empty corridor of the Purple Gold Palace, he still had some inexplicable feelings in his heart.

I don't know if I should breathe a sigh of relief for myself to get rid of the 'clutches', or whether I should be worried about the sudden summons of His Majesty the Emperor.

"Lord Qiu, the slave will lead you into the side hall for a while, you wait, wait for the chief manager to inform you to meet His Highness." The little eunuch who led her there was quite polite.

Because everyone with a discerning eye knows that after Zheng Jun's accident, the admiral of the celebrant is getting the blue eyes of His Royal Highness Regent, and he will be promoted to the first seat of the celebrant in the near future.

The celebrant has jurisdiction over the twelve eunuchs of the inner court, and sooner or later these people are also Akiba Bai's subordinates.

"There is labor." Akiba Bai nodded in return.

She has never been a bully.

The little eunuch saw that Qiu Ye Bai was polite, so he arched his hand, and continued to politely introduce Qiu Ye Bai into a side hall room, and after someone served tea, he went to the main hall to restore his life.

Qiu Yebai lowered his head and smelled the tea in the cup, and then looked up at the surroundings of the Purple Gold Palace, and found that the Purple Gold Palace was decorated with carved cranes and auspicious clouds or lush forests and bamboos.

made her suddenly think of her small riverside building.

His Majesty the Emperor didn't seem to like incense, and he didn't place the usual beast head incense burner, only a stack of fresh flowers and fruits, but a faint sober fragrance of flowers and trees in the air came from nowhere, just smelling it and feeling extremely comfortable.

She looked down and was guessing, when she heard footsteps coming from outside.

"Your Excellency, please rest here, someone will be summoned in a moment."

"Thank you."

Qiu Yebai listened to the man's calm and clear alto, raised his eyes instantly, and sure enough, he saw a slender and elegant figure slowly walking in from outside the door, and the face of the middle-aged man with handsome eyebrows and a calm breath made her eyes cold.

"On the autumn clouds."

As soon as Qiu Yun entered the door, he also saw Qiu Ye Bai, and when he saw the person sitting in the room, his eyebrows jumped, and he felt a faint pain in his shoulder, and a complicated look flashed in his eyes.

"Why are you here?"

The little eunuch outside the door didn't quite understand why the father and son didn't look like father and son when they spoke, so strange, but he didn't bother to ask more, so he only smiled and said: "Qiu Shangshu, in addition to summoning you, Your Majesty also summoned Admiral Qiu. ”

When Qiu Yunshang and Qiu Yebai heard this, they glanced at each other, and they both saw suspicion in each other's eyes, but they both had a tacit understanding and didn't say much.

When the little eunuch saw Qiu Yun enter the house and sit down, he immediately turned around and went to prepare tea.

Only father and daughter were left in the room.

Autumn leaves white coldly closed his eyes, lowered his head and tasted the tea in his cup, just as if he couldn't see such a person in front of him.

Qiu Yun saw her appearance, his eyes were gloomy, and then he sat down opposite her.

"Why are you here?"

She listened to his question, then put down the teacup in her hand, and looked at him curling the corners of her lips sneeringly: "Didn't that little father-in-law just say that His Majesty wanted to summon me, as for your father, I remember that Lafayette is lying in bed now, don't you want to support the Du family to the end, I remember that from a few days ago to today, my father has been sick in bed, what's the matter, I saw that the Queen Mother fell, so I want to change the flag?" ”

Although the woman in front of him called his father, there was no half of respect for his father in his tone, but it was full of harsh ridicule, his expression was slightly gloomy, and his bright eyes were cold: "How am I treated, how should you ask?" ”

Qiu Yebai looked at his eyes that were so similar to herself, and sneered in her heart, she said indifferently: "That's right, so don't ask me about me here in the future, don't ask me in the future, what do I have to do, ask too much, it won't do you any good." ”

Seeing her indifferently not putting herself in the bottom of her eyes at all, Qiu Yunshang suddenly felt a faint pain in his shoulder, his face turned blue, and he said sharply: "You are my ......." ”

"Your daughters are now two in the Qiu Mansion and one is a monk outside, don't be mistaken." Akiba Bai narrowed his eyes and interrupted him in a cold voice.

Qiu Yunshang realized that he was almost provoked to say the wrong thing here, and he immediately stopped, but his face changed.

Qiu Ye Bai and Qiu Yun are both people with internal strength, and ordinary people will be noticed by them when they approach, so naturally they can't eavesdrop on their words, but here is the palace after all, and you can sail ten thousand boats carefully.

In the end, he held back his anger and looked at her with a cold expression: "Autumn leaves, I don't care if you recognize me or not, but I only want to tell you one word, you can live to this day and get today's status, it has proven your ability, so why do you have to stay in the court, mess with His Royal Highness the Regent, and be willing to be a lackey, it will not do you any good!" ”

After this incident of making living objects and burning the lamp at the stake, he still can't see who this daughter actually is, that's a joke.

When she heard this, she looked at him, and her eyes had flashed impatience and ridicule: "Qiu Shangshu, are you taking what I just said as a fart?" ”

She remembered that she had just said that he had better leave her alone, and then he put on a fatherly appearance to meddle in her choice!

"Vulgar!" Qiu Yunshang listened to her disrespectful cold words, and couldn't help but cover his shoulders, looked at her and reprimanded.

Qiu Yebai raised his eyebrows and smiled non-yin and yang: "Qiu Shangshu, Lord Qiu, I was born in the rivers and lakes, I am indeed vulgar, and my temperament is not the same as your gentle fifth aunt, she can be demoted by you all the way from a noble concubine to the lowest status aunt, without complaint or regret for decades, but I am a blind eyelid, you have to always put on this strict father's appearance, I am so vulgar, I can't say that I accidentally picked the tongue of 'father', and I don't know!" ”

"You ......." Qiu Yunshang saw that she regarded herself as a stranger, or even a political enemy, and for some reason she had mixed feelings in her heart, but she felt as if there was bitterness spreading in her heart.

When there was tension between the two, they suddenly heard the door creak open, and two eunuchs with various refreshments came in, so neither of them spoke, but watched the eunuchs arrange their things on the table.

The eunuch who was the leader of them only felt that the coldness emanating from the 'father and son' in the room made the air a few degrees colder, so he secretly guessed that their father and son had a quarrel, so after the arrangement was almost finished, he was a little flattering, and consciously looked at Qiu Yebai and Qiu Yun and said: "Although the two adults are father and son, Yingwei is in the same lineage, but our family looks at the two more like brothers, Qiu Shangshu is very young, and he looks not much older than Admiral Qiu." ”

It's just that before he finished speaking, he saw Akiba Bai's cold gaze sweeping over, which made him shiver, realizing that maybe he had slapped the horse's leg on the horse's leg, although he didn't quite understand what was wrong with his flattering words.

It's just that this Lord Xiaoqiu, or Admiral Qiu's eyes were so sharp that he couldn't stand it, and he was about to retreat quickly, but suddenly heard footsteps outside the door and the voice of the great eunuch of the Purple Gold Palace: "Your Majesty Xuanqiu Admiral is here." ”

So the eunuch immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly smiled and looked at Qiu Yebai: "Your Majesty, please." ”

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly picked up the plate and led the little eunuch out of the house quickly, far away.

Qiu Yebai snorted coldly, some things really can't be changed, Qiu Yunshang and her appearance are blood relatives at a glance.

Only then did he know that Acacia hurt Acacia, he has been out in the wind and rain for many years, and he can still look so young, but the reason is that he has never really put anyone in his heart?

She put down the teacup and prepared to leave, she really didn't want to stay with Qiu Yunshang, saving her from thinking that he had hardly appeared in front of her for more than ten years, and as soon as she appeared, she sold her mother to the Queen Mother as a hostage to control her, she couldn't help but itch her hands, and couldn't resist the urge to 'kill her father'.

Qiu Yunshang saw that she was about to leave with her sleeves brushed up, her sword eyebrows frowned slightly, she got up and said in a slower tone: "Ye Bai, what I said, you had better think about it, now that the Queen Mother is seriously injured, the Du family can't embarrass you, the royal mess is a mess, anyone can participate, but you are as far away as possible, go back to the rivers and lakes, find a home, even if it is not for yourself, you should ......." ”

He paused, knowing that what he said sounded like a threat again, but he continued, "For the sake of your mother. ”

Qiu Yebai listened to his words, stood in front of the door, and turned his face slightly in his direction, but he didn't look at him directly, but only said coldly: "Finally, I don't have to worry about the affairs of this admiral. ”

With that, he brushed his sleeves and left.

Qiu Yunshang looked at her back as she left, and wanted to say something, but in the end, he was silent, and his eyes were cold and complicated to watch her leave.

And the pipa bone in her shoulder that was shattered by her ached faintly.

……*……*……*……*……

"See Majesty, Majesty Majesty, Majesty Akiba Bai knelt respectfully in front of the bright yellow gauze tent.

"Flat." A somewhat tired and slightly cool middle-aged man's voice sounded from behind the gauze tent.

Then, the chief eunuch who was waiting motioned to his little palace people to lift the tent.

Akiba Bai looked quietly at the man sitting on the throne through her eyes, this was the first time she had seen the rightful ruler of this vast empire with her own eyes.

She has never been a pure minister, and naturally she will not have any feelings about the emperor who cannot be blasphemed.

His Majesty the Emperor sat quietly on the thickened snow fox mat, not wearing a dragon robe, but wearing a soap-colored regular clothes, although his complexion was very pale, but probably because he was used to seeing the almost inhuman white skin at the beginning of a hundred miles, and then looking at the Emperor Majesty, it did not seem too disobedient, although his appearance was tired and gloomy, but it did not look like the desolation of the person who lingered on the sickbed for many years as he imagined.

And she must admit that her Ah Chu can be born with such a peerless elegance, which makes women ashamed, and not only inherited the beauty of her mother who is the first beauty in Jiangnan, but also the emperor in front of her has also contributed a 'force'.

At least now, it seems that even though His Majesty the Emperor is a little blue at the moment, he can really be regarded as a middle-aged beautiful man, but he is too thin, and some of the high cheekbones make his face look a decadent feeling.

If he was young, Emperor Majesty would be high-spirited and scolding Fang Chu, presumably not much inferior to Ah Chu, or although Emperor Majesty was slightly inferior to his son's beauty and posture, he would have more affinity than Ah Chu, more like the third prince Baili Lingyu or the eighth prince Baili Lingfeng, but he was already the supreme in the world, no wonder Ah Chu's mother was so desperate to put all her net worth and life on him.

However, she remembered that in her previous life, everyone said that the more beautiful things are, the more poisonous they are, Baili Lingyu is like this, Baili Lingfeng is like this, the fifth prince is like this, and Ah Chu is even more so.

Most of the people in the Baili family have a unique and good skin, but there is really no one who is good-looking, and those who are close to them do not need to pay the price.

And, of course, her 'young' father.

Autumn leaves lowered her eyes, secretly sneering in her heart.

"Give a seat to Lord Qiu." His Majesty the Emperor coughed lightly twice, and immediately a little eunuch presented a low chair to Autumn Leaf Bai.

She was not polite, and said without humility or arrogance: "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

Then she lifted her robe and sat down.

The emperor looked at the young man in front of him, and a glimmer of light flashed in his originally somewhat confused and tired eyes: "Autumn leaves white? ”

She arched her hand: "Weichen is here." ”

Seeing that she was neither humble nor arrogant, the emperor suddenly smiled slightly: "Count it out, this is the second time I have met you face to face, and the first time is on top of the wedding, right?" ”

Qiu Yebai pondered for a moment, and said: "Back to Your Majesty, it is not the first time that Weichen faces the saint, but it is indeed the first time to peep into the sky, when Weichen married His Royal Highness the Regent, when His Majesty issued a decree, although there was no wind curtain to cover His Majesty's holy face, but Weichen never dared to raise his head. ”

His Majesty the Emperor sat in the curtain in and out, she entered the court for two years, this was the first time to see His Majesty the Emperor with her own eyes, on the day of the wedding, the Emperor Majesty was rare to show up, but after the decree was issued, he sat back in the curtain of the windshield, and the people in the audience were all sitting and looking directly at the Emperor Majesty except for Baili Chu, and everyone was lying face down to listen to the decree.

It was rare for His Majesty the Emperor to dare to refute him so directly, so he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and looked Qiu Yebai up and down with interest: "Sure enough, it is the son of Yunshangjun, but he is quite bold." ”

Qiu Yebai listened to the name on Qiu Yun, his eyes were cold, and he only smiled and thanked him, and avoided the topic by the way: "Thank you for the compliment, but Wei Chen doesn't know what His Majesty has summoned Wei Chen to do?" ”

The emperor looked at Qiu Yebai, and suddenly said lightly: "You married my regent, what do you think of him?" ”

She thought about it, but still said, "Your Highness is very good." ”

'Good' doesn't work!

The emperor looked at her and said, "You like the regent very much, don't you?" ”

Autumn leaves are a little speechless, your old 'daughter' is married, do you want to consider your 'son-in-law', will it be too late?

However, His Majesty the Emperor didn't ask in the past, but today he suddenly asked, which must have a deep meaning.

She remembered that the emperor's majesty was not deep, and her wrists were not ruthless back then, so she was vigilant in her heart.
