C24 (1/2)
A false alarm in the entire Feng Mansion allowed him to escape this calamity. Gu Nanfeng carried Lan Yu, who was on the ground, to the room that was specially prepared for her, and invited the best doctor to treat her. I only said a few words in a soft voice
”I'm sorry.”
”Thank you, I promise I will do it. In the inner courtyard of Feng Mansion, you will have the final say in the future. ”
On the desk in the imperial study, there was a thick stack of reports from senior ministers. Aside from daily affairs, the most common news was the battle against the border Xuan Kingdom years later.
The Xuan Kingdom was located in the northwest of the dynasty, separated only by a river. In the past few years, when the late emperor was still here, the two countries had a war, but because there were no specific conflicts of interest between them, they were at peace. However, in recent years, due to the rich fishery resources in the middle of the river, the fishermen on both sides of the river often argue over the ownership of the river area. If the imperial government did not step forward to conduct a conquest, the situation would only get more and more intense.
And according to Yin Su's personality, if he did not move, it would be fine, but if he moved, it would definitely harm him. It was just a small Xuan Kingdom. Even if it had the ability to transcend the heavens, he would still raze it to the ground.
Among these reports, the one that was most recommended was to allow General Zhen to take the field. Since the late emperor was here, General Zhen had fought with the Xuan Kingdom before.
Yin Su did not give any direct answer, nor did he give any indication of when he was going to the Xuan Kingdom or who he was going to send.
The light in the royal study slowly dimmed. Eunuch An lit a lamp and carefully placed it in front of the table. Yin Su finished reading the last imperial report and rubbed his forehead. After half a day of work, his emotions had calmed down.
Eunuch An advised.
”Your majesty, please rest for a while. This servant will bring you dinner now.”
”No, we will take a walk in Six Pools Palace.”
With that said, Yin Su walked towards the direction of the Six Pools Palace. Along the way, the moonlight had already risen, and the entire palace was no longer as noisy as it was during the day. It had sunk into a state of tranquility.
Eunuch An was behind with a lantern in his hand, walking ahead slightly quickly. Only when the cold Six Pools Palace entered his eyes did he finally stop his footsteps, and stand in front of the Six Pools Palace, quietly raising his head to look at these three words.
Everyone in the palace abhorred the Six Pools Palace s and beasts, and only said that this was the Cold Palace, and that this was the woman imprisoned by the Emperor. Even the Xin Fei didn't know that this was the place Yin Su stayed the most in, other than the imperial study. He stayed there all night.
Eunuch An took a step forward and opened the doors of Six Pools Palace's palace.
”Your servant is standing guard outside the door. If the Emperor has any orders, call for me at any time.” Eunuch An consciously took a step back, just like how she used to leave the Emperor alone in Six Pools Palace. In the past six years, he had accompanied the emperor countless times, but he didn't know what the emperor was doing inside. He was only doing his best to guard outside the door.
Although the Emperor did not reveal anything regarding what happened in the Feng Mansion today, he knew that the Emperor's heart had been heavily injured once more.
At this moment, the moon had already passed through the branches, as if hanging on the eaves of a distant palace. The moonlight was clear and bright, and this deep palace, one layer after another, trapped everyone inside.
In the middle of the night, he seemed to have heard a sound coming from inside the Six Pools Palace. The Eunuch An was alarmed, and listened carefully, as if he was a man trying to suppress his moans, this sound was very soft, but like a heavy hammer, it struck hard on the heart of the Eunuch An. In this kind of night, Eunuch An was heartbroken as he listened to the high and mighty Emperor's unspeakable pain.
After a long time, the sound gradually faded away, and he then heard a deep and powerful voice calling out to him …
”Eunuch An, come in.”
When the Eunuch An heard him, he practically crawled and rolled into the Six Pools Palace. After pushing the door open and entering, he was shocked and almost fell down.
Some of them were even adults, some were before entering the palace, and some were after entering the palace.
Some were laughing, some were crying, some were tender, and some were all of different shapes. Hundreds of them hung all over the room.
Angong's legs went limp as he plopped to his knees.
Yin Su did not care about the Eunuch An's ugly expression, as he stared at the new novel in front of him.
”Let's see, what's the resemblance? I can't even remember her face anymore. ”
Eunuch An's legs were still weak from the shock. He walked to the side of the Emperor with his back bent, looking at the painting on the table. Obviously, he had only painted it last night.
She was dressed in white and had her hair tied up in a bun. She was standing under a pear blossom tree with a charming smile on her face. The painting was vivid and vivid, as if a woman was about to jump out from a piece of paper.
The painting was signed with the word ”love” in small letters.
Yin Su seemed to be talking to himself, but also seemed to be asking Eunuch An.
”You think so?”
Eunuch An already had a vague impression of that woman called Qixi. She could only remember that back then, she loved to laugh and cause trouble, and she often overbearingly controlled the Emperor, who was still the Third Prince at that time. When he looked at the portrait again, it was as if he really thought of all the things that had happened to that woman. Speaking of which …
”It's, it's too similar.”
