Chapter 209: Doubts in the Heart
He reached out and picked up the wine glass in front of him, motioning to Xue Gao if he wanted to have a drink with him.
But now Xue Gao is not in the mood to drink at all.
"Alright, when are you going to bring that girl over to me? As he spoke, the emperor glanced up at Xue Gao, which could be regarded as getting down to business.
Seeing that his imperial brother wanted to see Jian Yun by name, a trace of hesitation appeared on Xue Gao's face.
Speaking of which, Jian Yun is carefree, and several adults here are very good to her, so her temperament is much more straightforward, not like those women in the palace who will always please the emperor.
So he was worried that if Jian Yun really saw his imperial brother, would he offend his imperial brother.
"Okay, don't worry about the rest, she is now related to the national society, as long as she doesn't do anything extraordinary, of course I won't blame her. The emperor saw Xue Gao's worry at a glance, and he said with a smile.
Although he said that, Xue Gao was still not at ease in his heart.
Seeing that the time was not early, and seeing Xue Gao's appearance again, the emperor glanced at Leng Yun: "Okay, take your master back to rest, and wait for something to happen in two days." ”
Leng Yun hurriedly answered "yes", stepped forward and gently pulled Xue Gao's arm, signaling him to go back first.
Xue Gao stood up and respectfully said to his imperial brother that after the subordinate brother retreated, he pushed open the door and left in a hurry.
Looking at Xue Gao's figure that left in a hurry, the emperor's face sank.
From the side, he could also see how nervous Xue Gao was about this civilian woman.
When walking on the road, Xue Gao's face could be said to be extremely bad.
"Although Miss Jian said that she was very straightforward, but in such a big matter, Miss Jian should still go to see the emperor, right?" Leng Yun knew what Xue Gao was thinking at the moment, and he asked cautiously.
At this moment, Xue Gao just returned to the inn, his face was very bad.
"Have you ever heard about the Imperial Brother coming here lately, is there anything else?" Xue Gao asked as he turned his head to look at Leng Yun.
Leng Yun shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.
It's been so long since he left the imperial court, and if his imperial brother wants to do something, who can really stop him?
"Don't tell Miss Jane about this matter first, I'll talk to Miss Jane when I have time tomorrow. Xue Gao sighed deeply, and it could be seen that he was a little irritable in his heart.
Leng Yun didn't know how to persuade him on the side, so he could only nod and say yes.
Early the next morning, Xue Gao came earlier than usual, which surprised Jian Yun.
"You only came here after breakfast two days ago, why did you come here so early today?" Jian Yun said as he got up and put away all the dishes and chopsticks on the table.
After thinking about it all night last night, Xue Gao couldn't figure out what kind of reason to tell Jian Yun before she agreed to see the imperial brother.
Jian Yun saw that Xue Gao didn't speak for a long time after he finished speaking, thinking that something important had happened.
A little doubt rose in her heart, then she frowned and looked up at Xue Gao and asked quietly, "Is something happening?" Jian Yun said as he poured a cup of tea for Xue Gao.
When he heard this, Xue Gao was stunned for a moment, could it be that his unhappiness was obvious?
"Not really, it's just that there's one thing I want to discuss with you, and I'm afraid you'll disagree. Xue Gao said as he motioned to Leng Yun to help her clean up all the things on the table.
Seeing him so serious, a little puzzlement appeared on Jian Yun's face.
"What Leng Yun told me yesterday is because I was being followed, but the person who followed me was my imperial brother. Xue Gao looked up at Jian Yun as he spoke.
When Jian Yun heard this, Jian Yun was a little surprised, how could Xue Gao, who was so good, be followed?
"It's because you've been with me for so long and haven't gone back, your imperial brother is in a hurry, so I'll come and arrest you personally, right?" Jian Yun looked at Xue Gao and said with a bit of amusement.
Although he said it in a playful tone, the moment he said it for some reason, Jian Yun felt as if he was a little sad in his heart.
For some reason, she seemed to be suddenly reluctant to let Xue Gao leave her.
"Not really, but yesterday I went to see the emperor, and I asked him why he was following me, and he said he wanted to see you. Xue Gao said as he looked up at Jian Yun with a slightly embarrassed expression.
When she heard this, Jian Yun was really stunned for a moment, how could the good emperor want to see her?
"I'm just a village woman, this appearance is not suitable for a saint, right?" Jian Yun looked at Xue Gao with some uneasiness and said.
Xue Gao knew that Jian Yun would reject him, and shook his head slightly.
"Although I don't know why the imperial brother wants to see you, but it shouldn't be for any bad thing, it's just a matter of whether you want to or not, if you want to, I can accompany you to see the imperial brother, don't worry, with me, I will never let my imperial brother embarrass you." Xue Gao looked at Jian Yun seriously and said.
When he heard this, Jian Yun suddenly burst out laughing.
"What are you thinking? I haven't done anything hurtful, if I have to say anything, it's just that I kidnapped you, King Shen, to come here, but I also have some credit for the country, and the emperor will naturally think that my merits outweigh my faults, it's just that you came to tell me today that I understand these things, so you can pick a time." After thinking about it, Jian Yun looked at Xue Gao and said.
Hearing this, Xue Gao felt a little surprised, Jian Yun actually agreed to him.
"Don't think it's your credit, but I think it's reasonable for me to make such a big move today, and the emperor wants to see me. Jian Yun lowered his head slightly, and talked to Xue Gao about his considerations.
But no matter what reason she had, Xue Gao's heart felt relieved.
Just when the two of them were talking about this, Leng Yun just cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks on the table.
"Since you came, sometimes I don't even have to wash the dishes and chopsticks, and having a cold guard here to help me is indeed a lot easier, but I have wronged the cold guard. Jian Yun looked at Leng Yun with a smile and said.
When he heard this, some fine beads of sweat oozed from the corners of Leng Yun's forehead, what kind of joke are you kidding?
Estimating that the emperor didn't have anything to do now, Xue Gao took the first step to let Leng Yun inform the people around the emperor of the matter.
