As a man who has been purified since he was a child, it is not that Han Diao Si has never found a face, but after staying in the palace for a long time, as he gets older, he really has never felt that way again. Now But when I heard Zhu Qiwen inadvertently exposed this hobby, I was just a little surprised.
He has seen all kinds of surprising scenes in the Han Diao Temple in the palace since he was a child. As the only eunuch who serves personally, he certainly hopes that his master will not hide anything from him, so that he can give His Majesty the best feeling.
"Your Majesty, do you want to let out the imperial guard inside?"
Han Diao Si faced the empress and asked for instructions respectfully.
The empress seemed to have sensed the change in Han Diao Si's tone towards her, and also realized the gaffe she had just made. She coughed awkwardly and responded seriously: "Let go! Only let go of that Jin Yiwei. Apart from that Jin Yiwei, there is no one else." Don’t let any mosquitoes out! Including Su Xuan!”
"Slave, you obey!"
After getting Zhu Qiwen's promise, Han Diao Si turned around and shouted loudly at the heavily guarded imperial guards: "Your Majesty has ordered that only Qi Mingxuan be released from the governor's mansion! The rest are not allowed to take a step forward!"
Gu Ming, who was also watching outside, had been sitting at a simple wooden table, drinking a cup of tea by himself. Naturally, he heard Su Xuan's arrogant tone, and of course the emperor's surprise. In response, Gu Ming raised his head and put the brewed tea down his throat. His fingers were not idle as he cracked nuts and melon seeds.
"Su Xuan is really smart. I wonder if such a smart guy can find the mystery..."
Gu Ming held his head with one hand, closed his eyes, casually dropped a peeled melon seed kernel into his mouth, and then lightly tapped his knee.
As orders were issued one after another, Su Xuan didn't even need to push the door out. The thick door of the mansion was opened by two guardsmen wearing golden armor, leaving only a gap for one person to pass through.
"This is a wounded person! Can you have some brains? Open up! What? Are you afraid that the duck you got will fly away?"
The two second-level imperial guards who were in charge of pulling the door heard Su Xuan's roar and looked at each other. They didn't know what to do for a while until Empress Zhu Zhirui urged her again.
"Let go! Take Qi Mingxuan out and put him in the Imperial Medical Office for treatment! All the soldiers who have devoted all their efforts to protect the Great Xia Dynasty deserve my preferential treatment!"
Only then did the two forest guards dare to slightly widen the threshold to the width of the two of them. Su Xuan looked at Zhu Zhirui through this gap. The two were discussing through the air. The latter had admiration in his eyes, while Su Xuan looked at Zhu Zhirui. There is only resentment and anger towards this kind of emperor's mental tricks. Even at this time, he is still able to catch Qi Mingxuan's injury to restore his own momentum and prestige. He really only regards himself as a human being!
"Let me do it..."
Gu Ming's voice rang out, reverberating throughout the whole place with an ethereal sound, and everyone froze. Gu Ming, who was still drinking tea in the distance and watching, had already arrived in front of the governor's mansion. The two imperial guards knew each other very well. He made room for Gu Ming, and Su Xuan was extremely grateful to the master who looked at him, and then hugged Gu Ming to express his gratitude.
"Thank you Master!"
"Okay, go do your thing. Don't worry if Qi Mingxuan is with me."
"As commanded, I will not disappoint my master." Su Xuan's feelings for Gu Ming and his gratitude for the kindness of finding him were beyond words now.
Gu Ming picked up Qi Mingxuan with both hands, completely ignoring the blood stains on his body that stained his snow-white robe, and smiled faintly at Su Xuan.
"Su Xuan, is it possible that you can still guess what my hope is?"
"My disciple really can't guess it now, but no matter what it is, my disciple will definitely not disappoint the master! A gentleman's words are hard to catch up with!"
"Okay! What a gentleman says, a horse is hard to catch! You are really my good disciple! Compared with that little brat Su Tian, you are much less worried." Gu Ming smiled heartily, and when he finally left, he looked back and squinted his eyes. He glanced at Qing Jun, the personal guard under King Xun, and with just one glance, the latter's back instantly felt a chill as if he was being targeted by something dangerous.
With ancient inscriptions blocking the way in front, the people in the courtyard naturally did not dare to move rashly, and they also saw the soldiers and weapons waiting outside through the gap that was only two widths. The cold light emanating from the weapons made them The warriors in the courtyard of the governor's mansion felt that there was a bit of a disparity.
Naturally, they knew that the Yulin Army was the reserve army of Ten Thousand Tigers under General Gou Hongxuan, so they were also able to understand the gap between themselves and the soldiers outside.
The morale in the mansion was instantly low. As the leader of the dead soldiers, Qingjun could naturally sense that something was wrong with the surrounding momentum and shouted angrily.
"Brothers! After passing this level, the prince will take us to the west to hunt wolves in the prairie! Go to the Western Regions to see the scenery that these dogs who have lived in the palace for a long time cannot see! Soldiers who only stay in such kennels, We can’t see the beautiful scenery of the grassland! But the prince will lead us into northern Xinjiang and get back the land that belongs to us! Take back the grassland that belongs to us! "
Zhu Houyi, who is the prince in Yanzhou, has some fierce men who have been racing on the grassland since childhood. They all have a bold character of eating meat and drinking heavily. Of course, he is not used to the gentle administrative style of the current empress. With Qingjun With such a sound, everyone here thought of the good old days of riding on the grassland.
"Long live the prince! Long live the prince!"
Everyone shouted in unison, and these shouts came like a wave, causing the originally low morale to suddenly return to its original state, even stronger than before.
Before the door was closed, the imperial guards outside naturally heard the shouts inside. Although they were well-trained and didn't show any signs of it, and remained silent, they were all human beings, and they all dreamed of going into battle to kill. Warriors of the enemy, warriors with a lot of passion who have thought about taking back their lost homeland inch by inch on the battlefield!
The thoughts of the Imperial Forest Army also started to beat, but the Empress didn't say much. She just looked at Su Xuan, who stood on the wall of the gate and slowly shook his head.
Zhu Zhirui didn't know what Su Xuan's action meant. Did he feel that he was wrong for not boosting morale just now? Or was his style not liked by civil and military officials? Or was it something else... …
The empress could not think of it, and she could not figure it out for a while. There were some things that her father had not given her the answer to, so Zhu Zhirui could only find it on her own...
