The little emperor has a moody temper, but he is still just a nine-year-old naughty boy. Seeing that Bai Yu'an is willing to play with him, he smiles again and rides on the eunuch next to him.
After all, Bai Yu'an is not a child. How can he ride on someone like the little emperor? He bent down and said to the little emperor: "I feel unwell, please stand and accompany your highness."
The little emperor had already hit the ball and was impatient after hearing these words: "Okay, okay, hit the ball quickly."
Bai Yu'an lowered his eyes. The pole was slender, and there were bamboo pieces underneath to hold the ball. If you don't pay attention, you might hurt someone.
The bamboo ball was hit in front of him, and not far away there was an eunuch kneeling on the ground to catch the ball with his hands. Whenever the little emperor hit him, if he didn't catch it, the bamboo pole would hit the eunuch.
Bai Yu'an watched silently and hit the ball in front of the emperor.
But my heart was extremely tormented, and I just wanted this scene to end quickly.
At the end of the fight, the little emperor had enough fun and sat on the ground unruly, drinking the tea handed over by Xiao Ping.
Bai Yu'an glanced at the eunuchs who were still kneeling in the palace. They were all injured. Even Bai Yu'an's knees were scratched by the pole opened by the little emperor, leaving a hole in the flesh.
The wound may be dripping with blood, or it may have been numb for a long time.
Finally, his eyes fell on the eunuch who was catching the ball. The description was even more horrific. Just because he failed to catch the ball hit by the little emperor, his face was scratched with bloodstains by bamboo poles. It was so horrifying that Bai Yu'an couldn't stand it anymore.
She lowered her head and cupped her hands to the little emperor: "It's time to pass on the meal. I don't want to disturb His Highness anymore, so please leave first."
When the little emperor saw that Bai Yu'an was about to leave, he stopped her and said, "I am very happy that you accompanied me today. I will come to play with you next time."
After that, he added: "If you have fun playing with me next time, I will reward you with something."
Bai Yu'an stood there with his hands bowed and his head bowed: "I am grateful to the Holy Master for your attention."
The little emperor smiled proudly, then waved his hand to let her go.
Xiao Ping walked out to see him off, and when he reached the door, Xiao Ping suddenly lowered his head and chuckled in Bai Yuan's ear: "Master Bai, please be careful what you say in front of His Highness, otherwise you will be the one to catch the ball next time."
Bai Yu'an paused and looked at Xiao Ping.
Xiao Ping met Bai Yu'an's eyes. The man who was groveling just now had unknowingly raised his back.
Bai Yu'an remained silent and looked away lightly.
He is just a dog that pleases his master. A villain who flatters his master will dirty his eyes by looking at him too much.
Xiao Ping looked at Bai Yu'an and turned his eyes, his elegant face was calm, and his eyes clearly didn't take him seriously.
He smiled nonchalantly, then turned his head and showed a ferocious expression.
Xiao Ping hated being looked down upon most in his life. So what if Tanhua Lang still had to kneel in front of the emperor? He was no more noble than eunuchs like them.
As soon as Xiao Ping left, Bai Yu'an stood at the door of Wenhua Hall, looking at the dark night outside, and hearing the laughter coming from the hall again, and then felt that his knees began to hurt.
She felt that some of her beliefs were gradually disappearing, and her former self was gradually drifting away.
He walked down the stone steps in front of him one step at a time. On the last step, Bai Yu'an saw a dim light not far away breaking through the night.
Shen Jue, dressed in a purple official robe, came over with raised eyebrows. He looked dignified, followed by two eunuchs, walking over in the night.
Bai Yu'an paused for a moment, then stood on the edge and lowered his head. Until he saw the pair of black boots stopped in front of him, Bai Yu'an did not raise his head to look at Shen Jue.
Shen Jue looked at the Master and saw that the official robe was wrinkled and the lower hem was scratched. The official hat was slightly crooked and several strands of black hair fell down.
She lost a bit of her usual neat demeanor. She lowered her eyes and didn't say a word. Looking at her in particular made her feel uncomfortable.
Looking into the brightly lit hall again, Shen Jue looked at the white and pointed chin and said, "What's wrong?"
What's wrong?
Bai Yu'an sneered secretly, but his face was cold and silent.
Shen Jue saw that Bai Yu'an didn't hear what he said, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked the eunuch behind him to go in first with Zhezi.
The eunuch behind him didn't dare to stay for a moment longer and hurriedly walked into the hall.
Shen Jue walked to Bai Yu'an's side. His tall body blocked the view of the eunuch at the entrance of the palace. He raised a finger to lift Bai Yu'an's chin, his eyes thoughtful: "But have you been wronged by the emperor?"
Bai Yu'an then looked at Shen Jue with distant eyes: "I only realized today that the emperor, who is wise and diligent, could become an obedient chess piece in the hands of Shen Shoufu?"
"I have nothing to say at this moment, so I will take my leave."
After Bai Yu'an said that, he turned around and left without even taking a moment to remember.
Shen Jue stood there and looked at Bai Yu'an's back, walking alone in the night, his official robe slightly raised, the loose hem of his clothes rubbing, and the loneliness of the back could be vaguely seen.
It wasn't until the figure disappeared into the night that Shen Jue turned around with a faint eyebrow.
It was as if Bai Yu'an had never taken to heart the extremely offensive words he just said.
Entering the hall, the little emperor was still sitting on the ground. When he saw Shen Jue coming in, there was a hint of fear in his eyes, and he quickly stood up properly.
Shen Jue glanced around the hall and saw that several of the eunuchs kneeling on the ground were covered in blood. His eyes dimmed and he waved his hands to make those eunuchs retreat.
Shen Jue said nothing, just walked up to the little emperor, lowered his head and looked at the slightly frightened look in the little emperor's eyes, and then smiled: "It's time for your highness to approve the memorial."
The little emperor went to the case obediently, and a eunuch handed a book to the little emperor.
Shen Jue looked at Xiao Ping who was standing behind the little emperor. With a slight glance, Shen Jue walked to the outer hall.
Xiao Ping saw that the little emperor was reading the memorial with his head propped up, holding a red pen and playing with it impatiently between his fingers. He said something to the side and asked someone to bring some fruit and grapes, and then walked out.
As soon as he walked to the outer hall, he saw Shen Jue standing waiting for him, so he quickly walked up to Shen Jue.
The eunuchs serving in the outer hall were all called out, and the guard at the door looked straight ahead, seeing only what was in front of him.
Shen Jue glanced at Xiao Ping, and Xiao Ping understood. He whispered everything about the little emperor's day in detail.
After hearing the end, Shen Jue put his hands behind his hands and glanced at Xiao Ping: "Did Editor Bai get hurt?"
Xiao Ping did not expect that Shen Chief Fu would ask specifically about Bai Yu'an, and said hurriedly: "His Highness's pole is not serious, even if it sweeps away Lord Bai."
Shen Jue pursed her lips and nodded to let Xiao Ping enter.
