I became an official of the imperial court by eating melons when I was still a baby

When Emperor Jin Yuan heard what Eunuch Li said, he put aside the matter of dealing with the Second Prince for the time being and said in a deep voice, "Let him in."

Soon, a man in black quietly came before Emperor Jin Yuan, knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and said, "An Yi pays respect to Your Majesty!"

"An Yi, didn't I ask you to arrange a few people to protect Xiao Fuguan? But what's wrong with this matter?"

Emperor Yuan of Jin said seriously.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, after the morning court session, I have arranged for An Si, An Wu, and An Liu to follow Lord Xiao Fuguan back to the Qin Mansion. An Si just returned to the palace and said that he had important matters to report to Your Majesty, and is now waiting outside the palace."

An Yi replied respectfully.

Emperor Jin Yuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Let him in."

"Yes!" An disappeared in an instant.

After a while, An Yi came in with another man in black.

"An Si pays respects to His Majesty!" An Si saluted respectfully.

Emperor Jin Yuan waved his hand and said solemnly: "Tell me, what happened?"

"Yes! Today, we followed Xiao Fuguan all the way back to the Qin Mansion and have been protecting him in secret. In the evening, after Xiao Fuguan had his meal and went to sleep, several people from the Qin family went to the meeting room together. They must have something to discuss."

"After that, only a few maids and servants were left by the young official's side. It was at this time that several groups of people took advantage of the night to find the courtyard where the young official lived and released drugs, causing everyone in the courtyard to fall into a coma."

"We were alert the whole time and took action as soon as we spotted those people. However, they came in several waves and had the advantage in numbers. We were incompetent and failed to stop them completely, allowing several of them to enter the young official's house."

When Emperor Yuan of Jin heard this, the air pressure around him dropped instantly.

An Si couldn't help but shudder, and continued to speak under the pressure of Emperor Jin Yuan: "I immediately rushed into the house, leaving An Wu and An Liu to deal with the people outside. But when I rushed into the house, a dazzling white light suddenly flashed in front of my eyes, so dazzling that I had to raise my hand to block it."

"When the white light faded, I found that Xiao Fuguan was still sleeping peacefully, unaffected. However, the people who broke in earlier all fell to the ground, bleeding from all seven orifices."

Emperor Jin Yuan was shocked when he heard this, "Why is this happening?"

"I searched the house and found no trace of anyone else. After hastily dealing with the body, An Wu and An Liu stayed behind to continue protecting Xiao Fuguan, while I immediately returned to the palace to report to His Majesty."

An Si told the whole story in detail.

Emperor Jin Yuan pondered for a moment and said, "There may be something protecting Xiao Fuguan. Once there is a malicious attack on her, it will be triggered, that is, the white light."

"Well, that's good too. Human protection always has its shortcomings. The young official is indeed a blessed man."

An Si hesitated and asked, "Should we continue to protect the young official?"

Emperor Jin Yuan said without hesitation: "The three of you continue to protect him, and report any situation in time."

“Should we inform the Qin family of this matter in advance? If they return to Ziwei Courtyard and find that the maids and servants are all asleep, they will probably be quite frightened.”

An Yi at the side asked.

"Tell the truth, the Qin family is not an outsider."

Upon hearing this, An Yi and An Si's pupils shrank suddenly, and they immediately raised the status of the Qin family in their hearts, and secretly made a decision in their hearts that they would treat the Qin family with more respect in the future.

"Yes!" An Yi and An Si bowed in response.

"Go back. You won't be punished for what happened today. If you make mistakes again, you'll be 'retrained again'!"

An Si couldn't help but show fear on his face, as if he recalled something terrible. He replied in a trembling voice: "Thank you for your forgiveness, Your Majesty. We will do our best to protect the young official!"

Emperor Yuan of Jin waved his hand, signaling the two men to leave.

The two men stood up, clasped their fists, and bowed, then gradually disappeared.

The meeting hall of the General’s Mansion.

At this moment, except for Qin Yue, who continued to dream about Zhou Gong after eating, and Qin Zhao, who was studying in the Imperial College, the rest of the Qin family were there.

Lord Qin recounted in detail what happened at the morning court today.

Several people were a little dazed after hearing this. The gossip about Prince An, General Pingxi, and Princess An was really too exciting. It completely shattered their world views!

The fact that Emperor Jinyuan wore his underwear backwards was ignored by them all, and they didn't dare to mention it again...

"I have already explained everything to Butler Wang when I returned home today, and asked him to find a few more trustworthy people. If one day he really gets killed... at least there will be someone to collect the body..."

Lord Qin broke the silence and began to talk about what he had told Butler Wang to do today.

"Master, will it really come to that?" Old Madam Qin asked hesitantly.

"Yes, father, isn't this a bit too cautious?" Qin Qin also echoed.

"To be with the emperor is like being with a tiger. Sister Yue and my younger sister are like that..."

Master Qin paused and continued, "Well...they both have lively personalities, so it won't go wrong to make more preparations."

"You don't need to feel any psychological burden. Sister Yue is a lucky star and will definitely bless our Qin family. We do this just in case."

Lord Qin explained and comforted the others.

"Father, Sister Yue and my younger sister can know other people's secrets. If there are bad guys who don't want Sister Yue to expose the bad things that some people have done, will they come to hurt Sister Yue?"

Lu didn't care whether or not to find someone to collect the body. The worst-case scenario was that the family would be together anyway. Instead, thinking about what happened in the court today, she couldn't help but ask with some concern.

After these words were spoken, everyone present fell into deep thought.

“Master, why don’t we arrange more guards for Sister Yue to guard her day and night, and also send more patrol officers to the mansion.” Old Madam Qin suggested softly.

"Mother is right. I will recruit some more guards tomorrow, and also recruit a few maids who know martial arts to be by Sister Yue'er's side." Lu nodded, agreeing with her mother-in-law's words.

"Well, let's arrange it this way for now. From now on, Sister Yue must be by someone's side at all times."

The conversation between several people about increasing the number of guards happened to be overheard by An Si who had just returned from the palace. After hesitating for a moment, An Si jumped off the eaves and walked into the conference room.

The Qin family members who were discussing how to add more guards suddenly caught a glimpse of a man dressed in black coming in the door, and they were so startled that they stood up from their seats.

"Who are you? How dare you enter my Qin Mansion at will!" Qin Qin shouted sternly, took a big step forward and stood in front of everyone.

Lord Qin's face darkened, and he stared at the person who came with his tiger eyes, and walked slowly to Qin Qin's side.

Seeing that there was a misunderstanding, An Si quickly spoke up to break the tense atmosphere: "My Lords, Madams, please listen to my explanation. It's all a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding!"

"I am the secret guard sent by His Majesty to protect Xiao Fuguan. There are three of us. After the court session today, we will follow Xiao Fuguan back to the Qin Mansion to protect him secretly. But I don't want to do that in the evening..."

Afterwards, An Si told the Qin family members in detail what had happened before.

"That's all that happened. Your Majesty guessed that Xiao Fuguan was protected by something at all times, and the protection would be triggered as long as his life was in danger."

"I just came back from the palace and heard that you were planning to increase the guards. It should be to protect the young official. I came out to explain the situation so as not to worry you."

An Si said in a very respectful tone.

When the Qin family members heard that the person in front of them was the secret guard of Emperor Jin Yuan, and that such a thing had happened in Ziwei Courtyard after they left, they couldn't help but break out in cold sweats.

Fortunately, Sister Yue was lucky and was not hurt, and everyone gradually put their minds at ease.

Then he heard An Si say that he heard their conversation, and his heart tightened. They had previously asked someone to collect the body, and their words about living with the king was like living with a tiger, so they probably didn't hear it...

The heart that had just been put down slowly rose again...
