Chapter 48 The little emperor is cowardly and soft 12
Su Xi's face was calm, and he acted like an emperor, but he was racking his brains thinking how to end this unpleasant encounter gracefully and politely.
At this time, D6 suddenly said: "Wan Chongshan is standing behind you."
"What...?" Su Xi was taken aback.
D6 sighed imperceptibly, "Wanchongshan stands not far behind you."
Ten Thousand Mountains?Didn't he leave?Why are you back again.
Su Xi pursed her lips.
"Your Majesty?" Chen Wanhan was talking, but when she turned around, she saw that the young emperor's brows were a little dazed, and his eyes didn't know where to look, so she couldn't help calling softly.
Su Xi came back to his senses, looked at Chen Wanhan's pretty face, and suddenly reached out to stroke Chen Wanhan's temples.
It was as light as a gust of wind, Chen Wanhan was taken aback, and stood there blankly.
When he came back to his senses, the emperor's hand had already left his ear.
The originally fair cheeks were dyed pink almost at a speed visible to the naked eye, which made her more pink and springy, like a rose in a bush.
Chen Wan lowered her head shyly with brows and eyes, revealing a crescent moon porcelain white neck, and said softly, "Your Majesty... what were you doing just now?"
"Wanhan just now... a bee fell on her ear." Su Xi lowered her eyes lightly, and her eyes fell on an unknown flower branch beside Chen Wanhan, her voice was a little low.
"Ah?" Chen Wanhan covered her mouth and exclaimed, and took two steps closer to Su Xi, but she managed to maintain the reservedness of a lady, and did not throw herself into her arms as Su Xi expected.
The tension in Su Xi's eyes relaxed, and then seeing Chen Wanhan's brows stained with worry, she stretched out her hand to take the one she had just stretched out.
"Is the emperor all right?"
Su Xi pursed her lips, but did not withdraw her hand, and said softly, "It's nothing."
Chen Wanhan breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the words, as if she had realized that she had actually held the hand of the emperor, she immediately lowered her head shyly and let go of her hand.
Su Xi's mind was no longer with her, her long eyelashes drooped slightly, covering the strange look in her eyes, Su Xi said softly, "Has he left?"
D6 hummed.
Su Xi paused slightly, and slowly turned around.
Chen Wanhan noticed his gaze, and Su Xi looked back for an instant.
But there is only an empty path in sight, "What is the emperor looking at?"
Su Xi withdrew his gaze, nodded, and his expression became stern again, "It's late at night, Wanhan should go to serve the Queen Mother first."
There was still a smile in the corner of Chen Wanhan's eyes that hadn't dissipated, and she was slightly startled when she heard the words. When she recovered, the emperor had already turned and left.
Eunuch Li lowered his body towards her, "Miss Chen, walk slowly."
A proper smile appeared on Chen Wanhan's face, "Thank you, Eunuch Li."
Eunuch Li nodded.
Walking to the bedroom, Su Xi suddenly stopped. Eunuch Li, who was beside him, was stunned, and wanted to step forward to ask Su Xi what he needed.
But the emperor glanced at him slantingly, and the dim light reflected on his face, which seemed a little flickering.
"Eunuch Li, there are countless eunuchs in this palace wanting the position of chief servant."
Eunuch Li stiffened instantly, and when he looked up, the emperor in a bright yellow dragon robe had already entered the bedroom.
A gust of cold wind blew by, and the stiff Eunuch Li suddenly came back to his senses.
It turns out that the young emperor's brows and eyes have lost their childishness.
Su Xi slept very restlessly.
Because of his request, the lights in the hall were not extinguished, and the half-transparent curtain cast a misty shadow in front of Su Xi's eyes.
D6 sat on the head of his bed, dangling his two straight legs, and said slowly: "Why, do you feel distressed?"
Su Xi closed her eyes lightly, "Why do you feel distressed?"
D6 raised his eyebrows, but he was also measured, and changed the subject, "Go to bed early, and you have to get up tomorrow morning to go to court."
Su Xi didn't answer him, but his eyes were completely closed.
While Su Xi was sleeping, he vaguely felt a familiar temperature coming from his cheeks, just like Lu Huaiye's temperature. Su Xi took a breath, his eyes became sour almost immediately, and he rubbed his palm that was emitting heat like a kitten.
The body under the quilt curled up in extreme unease, unknowingly, tears had overflowed from the corners of the eyes and sank into the pillow along the snow-white cheeks.
Like a drowning man grabbing the last straw, Su Xi murmured softly, "Don't go..."
When Su Xi was awakened by D6, it was not yet dawn, the emperor didn't want to be as leisurely as in the novel, he could spend time with his beautiful woman.
As a profession whose life expectancy is generally not early, the early court alone can kill Su Xi half of his life.
God knows that he is actually a slob who sleeps until the sun shines on his butt every day.
Su Xi yawned and rubbed his eyes, but found that there were no serving people around.
Only then did I realize that he forgot to order to go down last night.
And as his usual international practice, the word "Zaochao" has never been included in the dictionary, and those court ladies and eunuchs naturally dare not come in without orders.
When the maid who lit the incense came in, she saw the emperor in clothes with her eyes closed. Eunuch Li was so frightened that his heart skipped a beat, and he quickly called someone to serve Su Xi.
The bedroom quickly became lively.
Su Xi casually ate two mouthfuls of his favorite pastry, and suddenly felt that there was no taste in his mouth, so he waved back and got up to go to court.
This is how the emperor's day begins.
Su Xi's drowsiness disappeared without a trace when he saw the figure in front of the general.
The man was wearing a dark blue military uniform today, with a handsome face and cold eyes.
It's just that the air around him is very oppressive, and the military officer standing behind him is obviously separated by a long distance.
He didn't pay the slightest attention to the emperor on the dragon chair. When everyone paid their respects, Su Xi looked at the appearance of Wanzhongshan kneeling on one knee, and suddenly thought in his heart, if Wu had Wanzhongshan, and Wen had Shang Yuanliang, both of them were against him. They are all loyal people, so will Daqing return to a peaceful and prosperous age?
Su Xi glanced at Wanchongshan imperceptibly, he thought that Wanchongshan wouldn't come.
In the early court, the ministers who reported clearly saw the emperor's absent-mindedness.
They looked at each other and came to a conclusion.
The emperor is still the emperor.
Still that foolish person.
Su Xi saw their small movements in his eyes, snorted imperceptibly, turned his head and said lazily to D6; "Dad, it's up to you."
D6 raised his eyebrows, "Small problem."
Not long after, soldiers outside reported that Tonglan's envoy had come to the palace to ask for an audience.
Su Xi regained a little bit of energy, "Sure."
There were about five or six people from Tonglan, and the leader was a literati in his thirties.
They sent a petition for peace.
A large number of tributes were also brought.
The country of Tonglan is quite opportunistic. Originally, when the new emperor of Daqing took office, when other countries were watching, they couldn't wait to jump out and carve up a piece of land.
Unexpectedly, a Ten Thousand Mountains appeared in the sky.
The melon was not distributed, but it was contaminated with fishy smell.
The second prince was captured alive by Wan Zhongshan, and the Daqing army even approached the capital of Tonglan. Seeing that the situation was not going well with the small countries allied with Tonglan, they quickly left it and slipped away.
The messenger had all the good things to say.
At this time, Su Xi's dog came in handy. This group of old treacherous officials usually fight fiercely, but when it comes to the righteousness of the country, they understand that they should point their guns at foreign countries.
Su Xi couldn't understand the scolding war among literati.Although the generals didn't speak, they were all tall and strong standing in place, and the evil spirit on their bodies would scare people speechless.
And those old treacherous officials saw that the emperor turned a blind eye and closed one eye, coupled with the might of the general.
Really complied with that sentence, the fox pretends to be the tiger, and dare not let Tonglan come to scold a fart, all of them with their tails between their faces are pale.
He almost didn't have to be signed by the civil servants to sign the traitor.
Seeing that it was almost done, Su Xi said in a deep voice, "Enough."
The envoy of Tonglan breathed a sigh of relief, and the courtiers of Daqing looked at them with disdain.
Although the envoy of Tonglan didn't know what the scolding was like in his heart, he still had to put on a smile on his face, and brought up all the tributes that Tonglan brought to make amends.
Su Xi heard that Tonglan wanted to send their princess to marry her.
For some reason, I dismissed the idea again.
He glanced imperceptibly at the sitting man.
What is the reason is self-evident.
Tonglan was afraid that the princess hadn't been able to get married, so she was quartered by five horses for an inexplicable crime.
After all, this Wanzhongshan was the ruthless man who captured their prince Tonglan alive.
The Tonglan envoy saw that he had reported a large list of names, and his mouth was dry, but the emperor's eyes did not fluctuate in the slightest.
Can't help but feel a little anxious.
Little did they know that Su Xi didn't understand what he said at all, but looking at the eyes of the courtiers, it should be some kind of rare treasure.
The Tonglan envoy smiled, suddenly raised his head and slapped his hands twice, calling the two people behind him, and brought out two things covered by the red cloth.
There seemed to be living things inside, and the guards holding the things seemed a little struggling.
Su Xi became a little interested, and the eyes of the Tonglan envoy flashed with excitement.
"Your Majesty, please look at Phoenix."
Surprise flashed across Su Xi's eyes, "Phoenix?"
Did Phoenix Really Exist in Ancient Times?
D6 was also surprised for a moment, "Could it be the golden pheasant?"
Su Xi shook his head, the emissary didn't make too much of a fuss, probably put the finale here.
Hearing that Emperor Daqing loved rare and exotic animals, they happened to find this divine bird that had never been seen before.
I hereby offer my apology.
The red cloth was slowly lifted, revealing a colorful tail, and then a touch of indigo.
The phoenix in the cage gradually revealed its figure.
Su Xi opened his eyes wide. As a modern person, he couldn't help being excited. He actually saw the legendary Phoenix here.
The messenger raised his hand and lifted the red cloth off.
Seeing the whole picture clearly, Su Xi's smile froze.
What a phoenix, it is clearly a peacock.
It's just that this peacock is covered in indigo, with colorful feathers growing on its tail.
The courtiers in Daqing all showed a hint of surprise, but when they saw the unsalty expression on their Majesty's face, they had no choice but to suppress the surprise in their hearts.
Instead, what caught Su Xi's attention was something in another cage.
