Chapter 377 (1/2)



377 Bringing honor to the ancestors (1)

“Today, Lord Xu has brought me to ask about the list of people who can enter and leave the Imperial medicine room …”

The little eunuch slowly explained according to the list. Emperor Yuan jing was silent, his eyes dark. No one knew if he was listening carefully or thinking of something else.

the last person on the list is from the jingxiu Palace, the head Palace maid of the Imperial consort. Lord Xu brought this servant to question her, but the door was closed.

Hearing this, Emperor Yuan jing’s frozen eyes moved, as if his attention was pulled back.

“Xu Daren had no choice but to go to Shao Yin Palace to find His Highness Lin an for help …”

Xu Qi ‘an’s words appeared in the eunuch’s mind. He said naturally, ” after asking lang ‘er from the scenic beauty Palace, Lord Xu’s expression turned extremely ugly. It seemed like he didn’t want to stay any longer. He didn’t even drink the tea and left in a hurry with this servant …

but before he could leave jingxiu Palace, lang ‘er came back and said that the Imperial concubine had invited Lord Xu to the courtyard to thank him for solving the case of Consort Fu. Lord Xu didn’t want to see him at first, but lang’ er forced him to stay. The young eunuch paused for a moment and continued, ”

after that, the Imperial consort dismissed everyone. I was not allowed to enter the house and could only wait in the courtyard …

“Wait!”

Emperor Yuan jing’s eyes regained their liveliness. He interrupted the young eunuch and stared at him. After a few seconds of silence, he said slowly, “”Dismiss everyone?”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“What did they say in the courtyard?”

I was too far away, ” the young eunuch replied. I couldn’t hear you clearly. I could only watch from afar as Lord Xu and the Imperial consort conversed.

Emperor Yuan jing put his right hand to his lips and pondered. Suddenly, he said, ” you said that Xu Qi ‘an’s face turned pale after he asked lang’ er? ”

Without waiting for the young eunuch to reply, the old eunuch’s expression changed slightly as he rebuked, “”You dog, what did I teach you?”

When reporting, do not mix in any subjective emotions. Do not try to mislead His Majesty. Be fair and objective.

Emperor Yuan jing raised his hand and interrupted the angry old eunuch.

Seeing this, the little eunuch had some confidence.”It is indeed very ugly.”

Emperor Yuan jing nodded and pondered for a moment before saying, “”Xu Qi ‘an wanted to leave, but lang’ er forced him to stay?”

“……. That’s right,”

The young eunuch noticed that Emperor Yuan jing’s attitude had changed. He said carefully, “”Lord Xu said that he was investigating a case by imperial edict, and that his duty was to carry out.

“Lang ‘er said that if Lord Xu doesn’t go see the Empress, he won’t be able to walk out of jingxiu Palace.”

Hearing this, Emperor yuanjing’s eyes seemed to burst with light. This time, he thought for a long time. The sleeping Palace was eerily quiet. The two eunuchs, one old and one young, held their breaths, afraid of disturbing the unfathomable Emperor.

Finally, Emperor Yuan jing slowly said,”when Xu Qi. an left …” How are you feeling?”

Xu Qi ‘an had told him this before he left, but the young eunuch didn’t answer immediately. He pretended to think for a while, then said, ”

“Lord Xu has left the palace with a heavy heart.”
