Chapter 1302： When the secret is revealed (1/2)

”His Royal Highness, Your Majesty is waiting for you inside.”

Seeing His Royal Highness stopping in front of the door, Gong Cao was a little confused, but he reminded him aloud.

Xiao Xu didn't say anything, turned his back and pushed the door open.

The heavy door was pushed open from the outside, and a loud noise rang in the empty temple.

Although I do not know where this uneasy feeling comes from, all of this must be faced today.

He stepped in without hesitation.

Emperor Xixuan was standing under a portrait, looking up and appreciating, hearing the sound coming from behind him, he did not look back, but said blandly, ”You are here.”

”Yes, the son-in-law came to hear the order, I don't know what the emperor has to explain.” Xiao Xu bowed his head slightly, saluted, and then asked.

”You come.” Xi Xuandi turned his head and waved at him.

Xiao Xu hesitated for a while before walking over, but instead of standing with Xi Xuandi, he stood behind him.

”I have a question to test you.”

”Father Emperor, please.”

Xi Xuandi pointed at the painting on the wall and asked him with a smile, ”Do you know who made this painting?”

Xiao Xu turned his attention to the scroll before he heard the words. The painting was not signed, but he could see that it was good. He answered truthfully, ”I don't know.”

Emperor Xixuan was behind him, stroking his beard with one hand, and slowly said, ”This painting is from the hand of painting artist Liu Xiran.”

”Liu Xiran? Could it be the one who was cut off six years ago?” Xiao Xu was somewhat surprised.

”Yes,” Emperor Xuan Xuan turned gloomy. ”He was a generation of painters and won the favor of Xun, but He can't tolerate the deception of others, so he described a tiger painted as a cat as Cat, this makes me very angry. Although he is a talented person, he cannot allow others to bully him.

Xiao Xu didn't know why his father suddenly said this. Although it wasn't obvious, he had doubts in his heart.

Emperor Xixuan glanced at the people around him, then turned back and walked back to the dragon chair and sat down. ”For so long, I have never asked the soldiers in the battle with Nan Cang. Many of them have not entered Beijing to receive rewards. I don't know. Have you settled well? ”

”The border cannot be separated from the people. The battle of Nan Cang consumed too much manpower to prevent neighboring countries from taking advantage of it. Most of them stayed there. Although they did not enter Beijing to receive rewards, their father did not treat them badly. The decree of the merit reward has also been made, and it is very rich, and they are also grateful. ”

Xiao Xu talked about things, formulating his tone.

Emperor Xixuan nodded, ”They are all Xier Xuanlang. Thanks to them, they can protect the safety of one party.” Speaking of this, he suddenly turned the subject, ”I remember in the army, there is a very brilliant young man, called Chu Yan came. ”

Xiao Xu's pupils shrank, and I didn't know what the emperor's sudden mention was. He still calmly and calmly said, ”Yes, although he is young, he has the courage and is a rare general.”

Xi Xuan Di Mulu praised him, but his tone was dubious. ”I also heard that many generals praised him a lot, but why did n’t he come to Beijing this time? And why did you not draw him in the list of rewards you drafted? Is it missing or? ”
