Chapter 10: Poison Testing

Pei Yan and Mo Yuan walked over. Eunuch De hurried over to serve the emperor a meal. Pei Yan pointed at Lu An and said, "Come here and test the poison for me."

Eunuch De was about to say, "We've already had someone test it, and there's no problem with the food." Before he could finish, Pei Yan raised his hand to interrupt him. Eunuch De stood aside and looked at Lu An.

[No way, no way, Pei Yan wants me to die]

[Can I not eat it? I won’t die, will I?]

[Someone poisoned someone last time. What happened to those two people in the end? 】

Pei Yan sneered in his heart, of course he is dead, is there any need to ask? When Lu An heard Pei Yan's laugh, he was scared to death. Lu An quickly walked over with a look of despair on his face.

[Can you please stop laughing so villainously? My heart can’t take it.]

Pei Yan looked at Lu An and thought: What if I let you die? I don’t know how many times you have died, yet you are still alive to test poison for me.

Lu An picked up the bowl and chopsticks tremblingly, tasted one, and his eyes lit up instantly.

[Wow, this is so delicious. The beef is so flavorful.]

[Wow, this vegetable is so tender]

[The ribs are boneless, so delicious]

Pei Yan looked at him doubtfully. Is it really that delicious? Basically, Lu An said one and Pei Yan tasted one. In the end, he couldn't help but nodded. The taste today was indeed good.

After Lu An'an tried it once, he was also full.

[Next time something good like this happens, can you give it back to me?]

[For the Emperor's safety, I think I can]

Pei Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at Lu An, as if to say, it depends on your performance. After Lu An tested the poison, he stepped aside.

After Pei Yan finished his meal, he had to go and deal with other matters. Mo Yuan also returned to the Marquis' Mansion. Lu An was arranged by Eunuch De to sit beside the imperial desk. Because Xuanying fell asleep after dinner, he could only wait for Xuanying to wake up.

[Xuanying, can’t you just hold on for a while? Let’s sleep when we get back. We can sleep together. I’m also very sleepy.]

[I feel sleepy after eating and want to sleep]

[Isn’t Pei Yan sleepy?] He isn’t tired either? How else can a person become an emperor?】

[With this perseverance, Pei Yan, you will succeed in everything you do]

Pei Yan looked at Lu An and thought: Why are you talking so much? Chattering, he looked at Lu An and tried to get him to stop thinking about it.

[Ahhhh, why is Pei Yan looking at me all of a sudden?]

[What did I do again? I didn’t do anything.]

Pei Yan sighed and thought: Should I kill him? After thinking about it, I decided to give up. Xuanying would make a fuss if he couldn't see anyone in the future.

[Pei Yan, why are you sighing at me?]

[Dog Emperor, what is that kind of vision you have? You look down on me. Am I really ugly? 】

[Humph, Pei Yan is no longer the best person in my heart]

Pei Yan thought, who cares?

Pei Yan felt inexplicably relieved when he saw that Lu An no longer listened to his inner thoughts after he said this.

By the time Pei Yan finished dealing with the matter, it was already dark. Xuan Ying had already woken up and was lying at his feet. Pei Yan was still wondering, why didn't Xuan Ying go to find that little eunuch? Now he remembers that I am his master? How could the little eunuch hold back from speaking for so long?

Pei Yan turned his head and looked over. The entire Mingguang Hall was silent with flickering candlelight. Lu An was leaning against a red pillar with his hands naturally clasped together and his head lowered. At this time, a gust of wind blew in from the window, and the curtains in the hall drooped and the tulle fluttered.

Pei Yan seemed to smell the fragrance of flowers and looked outside. Yes, it was summer already.

Lu An dreamed of a big truck crashing towards him again. He was frightened awake. When he opened his eyes, he saw Pei Yan standing in front of him. He closed his eyes again.

[Haha, this must be a dream, it must be, otherwise how could I have seen Pei Yan]

[No, I think I was in Mingguang Hall before I fell asleep]

[I dare not open my eyes, I hope it is my hallucination]

[Ahhhh, I actually fell asleep right under Pei Yan’s nose]

[Is it too late to die now?] 】
