Chapter 40 The Emperor Asks for Gifts
Today, after sending Chu Moyuan out, the emperor summoned Xia Youan to the imperial study.
Xia Youan came to the imperial study.
The emperor was wearing a black dragon robe and his hair was tied with a golden crown. He looked majestic and domineering!
Maybe because he stays indoors all year round, his skin is fair. He is nearly 40 years old, but he looks like he is in his early 30s.
King Xiaoyao is also here.
He was wearing a red brocade robe with gold embroidery on the cuffs and collar.
Looks very showy!
"Greetings to the Emperor, and to the Prince."
Ever since he knew that Big Brother Chu was Chu Moyuan's irresponsible father, Xia Youan really had no respect for the emperor and was too lazy to even pay his respects.
The Emperor and King Xiaoyao saw this and their mouths twitched.
This Xia Youan is really becoming more and more outrageous. If other girls meet them, the brave ones will be respectful, while the timid ones will be scared to the point of trembling.
Not bad for her.
Not only are they not afraid, they have no awe at all!
It was like he was visiting the imperial study. I wonder if he learned it from Chu Moyuan.
"Xia Youan, you are so bold! How dare you treat me so disrespectfully!"
"Your Majesty, where should I sit?" Xia Youan looked at the emperor with his big innocent eyes.
"Haha, my royal brother, here comes another one who's not afraid of you. Miss Xia's temperament is just what I like." He then waved to Xia Youan, "Come here, sit next to me, and let's have a good chat."
King Xiaoyao was amused by Xia Youan's reaction and burst into laughter, without any airs of a prince at all.
Xia Youan glanced at the emperor and saw that he had no objection, which meant he agreed!
So, he obediently walked to the chair next to King Xiaoyao and sat down, and poured himself a cup of tea.
Seeing that she was so relaxed as if she was at home, the Emperor and Prince Xiaoyao didn't bother to care about her anymore.
“During the morning court session, General Shan brought a telescope that could see very far.
General Shan was wearing a strange object on his wrist. He said it was a watch, used to tell time. "But was it a gift from Miss Xia?" King Xiaoyao asked, feigning indifference.
"Oh, it was a gift from me, but it was meant for Shan Ronghao. How did it end up with his father and brother?" Xia Youan was puzzled. Could it be that he was showing off too much and got robbed?
"Ahem~" King Xiaoyao cleared his cough to hide his embarrassment.
"Well, it's not me, it's my brother who really likes it. He wants me to ask Miss Xia if she has any more."
After King Xiaoyao finished speaking, the emperor looked at King Xiaoyao coldly. What a shameless man! He obviously likes me too, but he pushes me in front.
"Haha~ I see! I have a friend."
Understand!
Isn't it just using the emperor as an excuse to do what is convenient for you?
You are the prince and you have the final say!
The emperor sneered and said, "Haha~ See, no one believes me even if I use you as an excuse."
"I don't have the telescope or the watch anymore, but I do have a tablet that can be used to check the time. If Your Majesty doesn't mind, I'll send it back to you later."
I bought two extra tablets, thinking that if I were lucky enough to see them again, I would give them to them.
But after I knew their identities, it became inconvenient to send them.
King Xiaoyao used the emperor as an excuse, so it shouldn't be too much for me not to tell him that he had a share, right?
"Miss Xia is indeed intelligent and kind-hearted. I would like to thank you in advance. Here are the rewards!"
The emperor appeared calm on the surface, but he was actually laughing inside. He thought his younger brother would regret it soon.
Since you brought me a gift, I won't bother with you about using me as an excuse just now.
Manager Xu took out the reward he had prepared long ago and presented it to Xia Youan.
When Xia Youan saw the jade Buddha, even if he didn't know much about jade, he knew that it must be worth a lot of money!
It is carved from such a large piece of jade, so you can imagine its value.
I didn't expect the emperor to be so generous. Then why does he ignore his own son?
Your Majesty, you don’t really believe the nonsense about the unlucky star, do you?
"Thank you, Your Majesty. This is too precious and not commensurate with what I gave you." Xia Youan felt ashamed to accept it.
"Miss Xia, you are welcome. You cannot refuse the Emperor's gift. The Emperor heard that you were in danger during your last trip, so he specially gave this blessed jade Buddha to Miss Xia."
King Xiaoyao was afraid that Xia Youan didn't know the emperor's intentions, so he explained to Xia Youan.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being blunt. You don't look like an irresponsible person at all. Why are you so irresponsible only to the Seventh Prince?
As a father, shouldn’t you love your children and help them grow up healthily?
Why do you ignore the Seventh Prince?"
Xia Youan couldn't help but wonder in his heart and wanted to find an answer.
"Miss Xia, I can forgive your rudeness to me because you are sincere towards Old Seven, but there are some things you shouldn't ask."
The emperor stared at Xia Youan with cold eyes, which made Xia Youan feel uneasy.
It is true that serving a king is like serving a tiger. The ancients were right.
Xia Youan couldn't help but shiver.
"Well, I overstepped my bounds. If there's nothing else, I'll go back and get the tablet for the Emperor."
After getting the emperor's approval, Xia Youan left the imperial study.
On the way back to Chonghua Palace, a palace maid came towards him.
"Miss Xia, His Royal Highness the Second Prince is waiting for you in Wangyuezhai ahead." The little palace maid saluted Xia Youan respectfully.
"Why is he waiting for me there?"
The Second Prince knew that she had been in trouble, so he never asked her to meet him outside.
There must be something fishy going on here, she wouldn't be fooled.
"His Royal Highness the Second Prince has been entrusted by the Seventh Prince to look after the young lady while the Seventh Prince is away from the palace. Just now, I saw you being summoned. The Second Prince was worried about your safety, so he has been waiting in Wangyuezhai."
Chu Moyuan did tell her that if she had any problems in the palace, she could go to the Second Prince.
"Let's go, lead the way."
The palace maid who delivered the message didn't expect Xia Youan to follow her so easily.
The corners of his mouth curled up, what a fool.
Xia Youan pretended to follow the palace maid, and when the palace maid let her guard down, he turned and ran towards Chonghua Palace.
Do you really think I'm easy to fool? Only a fool would believe your nonsense!
The young maid hadn't expected Xia Youan to do this to her. After a pause, she immediately reacted.
The little palace maid turned around and chased after him.
She had observed that no one was passing by here for the time being, but she couldn't guarantee that if Xia Youan turned the corner, that would happen.
So she must be killed when she escapes from her sight.
It seems that she has no choice but to reveal her martial arts skills! She will inevitably be punished if she returns.
The little palace maid took a deep breath and flew out. Xia Youan felt that he was about to be caught up. God was going to kill him!
Xia Youan's brain was working rapidly, thinking about how to get out of the predicament, when he suddenly heard a low groan.
Xia Youan looked back and saw a branch stuck in the little palace maid's thigh.
In this situation, it is impossible to catch up with her.
Goodbye, you!
