Ji Xiaolan: Kill Qianlong at the beginning

Heshen walked in, bowed and said, "Your servant Heshen pays homage to the emperor."

Emperor Gai Zhang said, "Get up. I already know your story."

He Shen pretended not to know, stood up, and asked, "Your Majesty, my business? What is it?"

Emperor Gai Zhang said, "Heshen, don't play dumb. Ji Xiaolan has already told me what you said to Mo Li before."

Heshen was so frightened that sweat broke out on his forehead. He said, "Your Majesty, please do not listen to the slander of this villain. I am loyal to you and have no complaints. What Ji Xiaolan said is completely false."

Emperor Gai Zhang said, "Ji Xiaolan will not lie to me. I now order you to guard the city gate with Mo Li."

He Shen knew that if he continued to speak, Emperor Gai Zhang would be angry, so he said, "Yes, I obey your command."

Exited the imperial study.

After Heshen left, Emperor Gai Zhang was holding a pen and was about to write when he suddenly heard some noise.

He turned his head and asked, "Is that Xiaoyue?"

At this time, a eunuch brought a tea bowl.

Du Xiaoyue sighed and said, "Xiaoyue is not here."

The Emperor said, "Xiaoyue, come out."

Du Xiaoyue walked out from behind the curtain, bowed and said, "Xiaoyue pays her respects to the Emperor."

Emperor Gai Zhang asked, "Why is Xiaoyue hiding outside and not coming in?"

Du Xiaoyue said, "Xiaoyue was afraid that the emperor was still angry, so she didn't dare to come in."

Emperor Gai Zhang smiled and said, "You also know how to be afraid. The emperor is no longer angry."

Du Xiaoyue was overjoyed when she heard this. She walked up to Emperor Gaizhang and said, "Your Majesty, you are truly kind and lovely, wise and great."

Emperor Gai Zhang laughed and said, "Look at you, look at you, you've learned all these sweet words and flattery just by hanging around with this Mo Dayanpipe."

Du Xiaoyue said, "Your Majesty, Lord Mo is outside Chongwenmen every day, exposed to the wind and sun. How pitiful."

Emperor Gai Zhang said: "Is he pitiable? He brought it upon himself. I have been very lenient with him."

At this time, Mo Chou came over, bowed and said, "Mo Chou pays respect to the emperor."

Emperor Gai Zhang stood up and said, "Oh, what a coincidence today. Two rare guests have come to my imperial study to plead for Mo Li."

Du Xiaoyue came over and said, "Your Majesty, you are truly so wise and great. You know everything we are thinking. In fact, besides wanting to plead for Lord Mo, the most important reason I came here is to visit Your Majesty."

After saying that, he turned his head and looked at Mo Chou, "Isn't that right, sister?"

Mo Chou hummed and said, "Lord Mo is old and I'm afraid he can't stand the hardships of the weather. After all, he's a talent of Daxuan. Wouldn't it be too unfair for him to let him guard the city gate?"

Emperor Gai Zhang thought to himself that Mo Li was only in his thirties, so how could he be considered old? However, he did not say it out loud, but said, “Even if what Mo Chou said makes some sense.”

After saying that, he looked at Du Xiaoyue and continued, "Xiaoyue, you have to thank your sister on behalf of Mo Dayanpipe."

Du Xiaoyue said happily: "Your Majesty, you agreed."

Emperor Gai Zhang smiled and sighed.

Du Xiaoyue said excitedly: "Your Majesty, you are truly so wise and great."

Emperor Gai Zhang said with a smile: "Xiao Yue, why do you have so many flattering words? You are making me dizzy."

Du Xiaoyue said, "No, when I was in the opera troupe, the more I encountered a tyrant emperor, the more I called him wise and great."

Mo Chou was slightly startled when she heard this and said nervously, "Xiao Yue, please stop talking nonsense."
