Chapter Thirty-Seven: A Great Tribulation Approaches?
The next morning, as the sky was about to dawn, a crisp knock broke the silence of the street.
Soon there was the sound of footsteps in the Banxiang Building, and then the sleepy Yun Ying opened the door, and she greeted the person very familiarly when she saw the face of the visitor.
"Childe, you are here, my son-in-law will be waiting upstairs, please come in!"
Upstairs in Banxiang, it was the familiar figure who walked up the stairs again.
Yun Yi looked at the smile on the corner of the man's mouth in front of him, and guessed half of the meaning, he habitually poured the man wine and put it on the table.
"Looking at your happy appearance, I'm afraid you're ready to act, right?"
The man sat down and took a sip of wine, and waited for the spicy sensation with a fragrant fragrance to flow down his throat before he said leisurely: "It won't be long before they will be passed into the palace, and those who are secretly making ghosts will be anxious if they know the purpose of their trip!"
Yun Yi looked at his smug look and sneered: "That's not exactly what you want, everything is going according to your plan!"
"Naturally, there will be no mistakes in my plan, but don't forget, Young Master Yun, what you promised me, this long line, but only you can throw it farthest!"
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly stopped and leaned into Yun Yi's ear, and he didn't know what to add softly, only to see Yun Yi shaking his head helplessly after hearing it.
"You're a cunning old fox!"
The man was not impressed, he took the flask and poured himself a glass, swallowed it very cheerfully, and then put the glass on the table and got up.
"Now that you're ready, it's time for me to show up as bait, otherwise how could that big fat fish be so easily hooked?"
As the sun slowly rises, so does the crowd on the streets.
On the bustling market, suddenly a few sturdy horses galloped by, frightening the people on the side of the road to dodge on the side of the road.
In Nan'an Mansion, a violent knock on the door startled the magpies parked on the edge of the courtyard, and the little maid who was cleaning in the yard hurriedly went to open the door.
He only opened the door in disguise, wanting to see who it was, but the momentum of these three people scared the little guy backwards.
The person in front of him frowned very coldly, and the two in the back looked like the royal forest army in the palace, and the majestic and domineering appearance of the three of them didn't look like they were here to drink tea.
The father and son of the Shen family, who were having breakfast in the hall, were noisy by the movement outside, and walked out together to find out.
Outside the door, the man standing in front of him was dressed in black from head to toe, with a special red silk embroidery pattern on the placket, belt and cuffs.
Shen Cong'an looked at the sign pinned to the man's waist again, which was clearly the word 'royal', and quickly stretched out his hand to signal the little guy to retreat, and then opened the door and stepped forward to salute......
As soon as Shen Cong'an finished saying this, he suddenly felt that this move was a little inappropriate, after all, people were still standing outside the door, so he hurriedly continued: "It's abrupt, my lord, you must be very tired all the way, please come into the house and rest!"
As he spoke, he turned around and gave Shen Yan a look, and said in a low voice, "Why don't you hurry up and get ready to serve tea to the guards?!"
Shen Yan turned around and was about to enter the hall to make arrangements, when the imperial guard suddenly said coldly.
"No need, I'm just here to pass on the emperor's message, Your Majesty has something to announce Shen Yan and enter the palace immediately!"
The guard turned and walked outside, and the two behind him also turned and got on their horses.
Shen Yan's father and son looked at them respectfully, and after watching them ride away after riding their horses, Shen Cong'an turned his head to look at his son with a dark face.
"Say it...... What kind of trouble are you causing outside, and now you're still messing with the emperor?!"
"Dad, I didn't!"
Shen Yan looked dazed, what other big things could he do besides his usual eating, drinking, and handling cases?
This sudden summoning of him was also very unexpected, after all, Nan'an Mansion was just a small regional government, and even his father, an official the size of a sesame seed, had never met the emperor in person.
Although eating, drinking, and having fun on weekdays are a bit sloppy, they can be regarded as keeping to themselves!
Wait a minute...... Thinking like this, he suddenly remembered that he and Zhao Wuwu were on Baihu Street a few days ago, and they were indirectly involved in grabbing pictures, could it be that the head of the palace knew about this matter? !
It's over, he advised, this thing is not reliable, but now he was miserable by the surnamed Zhao!
