Chapter 157 Don't Touch Me

Eunuch De was already walking towards Lu An with a food box in his hand. "Your Majesty, the snacks prepared by the imperial kitchen are ready."

Lu An did not reach out to take it, after all, he was holding a large bouquet of flowers. He glanced at Pei Yan and said, "Then let's go and see Cheng Yan. You haven't seen Cheng Yan since you came back."

Pei Yan looked at Xuan Ying and said, "Well, let's go."

"Your Majesty, why are you so cold? Cheng Yan is still a child. Please be gentler."

"Okay, I understand."

Lu An came up to Pei Yan, stood on tiptoe and asked him, "What do you know?"

Pei Yan hugged Lu An's waist to prevent An An from losing his balance. "I will stop talking for a while."

Lu An bumped his head against Pei Yan's chest and looked at him helplessly, "Your Majesty~."

But Pei Yan reached out and covered An An's forehead, "Don't hit it, it will hurt soon."

Lu An said proudly: "Okay then." Then he gave Pei Yan a kiss on the face.

As soon as Lu An walked to the gate of the East Palace, Cheng Yan spotted An An. He stood up and ran out of the palace, "An An, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time."

When Master Zhou saw the prince run out, he stood up as well. Just as he was about to speak, he saw the emperor. He bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty."

Cheng Yan also saw Pei Yan at this time. He knelt down and said respectfully, "Greetings, Father."

Pei Yan's face darkened when he heard Cheng Yan call Lu An "An An". Lu An reached out and tugged at Pei Yan's sleeve. Seeing that Pei Yan didn't say anything, he couldn't help but look at Pei Yan and whispered, "Why don't you let Cheng Yan and Master Zhou get up?"

Pei Yan held Lu An's hand and said, "Master, please get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"How is Nian'an's etiquette learning going recently?"

Lu An understood what was going on as soon as he heard it. He squatted down and pulled Cheng Yan to his feet. He led Cheng Yan inside and said as he walked: "Cheng Yan, I didn't make cakes for you today, but the ones made by the imperial kitchen are also very delicious. You can try them later. They are even better than what I made."

Cheng Yan turned around and looked at Pei Yan, and couldn't help but hold Lu An's hand tightly. He didn't know what he did wrong. Did he follow the etiquette wrong just now? Otherwise, why does my father look so bad?

Lu An noticed that Cheng Yan was dejected. He led Cheng Yan into the hall, took out half of the flowers in his hand and handed them to Cheng Yan's nurse, "You can put this in a vase."

The nurse quickly went to find a large vase and put the flowers in it. Lu An saw that Cheng Yan's eyes were fixed on the flowers in his hand. He picked up a rose and handed it to him, "Does it look good?"

"They are beautiful," Cheng Yan said, and then glanced at Lu An who was holding the flowers, "but I think An An is the prettiest."

"Oh my God! I believe what Cheng Yan said is true, but please praise me for being handsome next time, hahahahaha."

Cheng Yan nodded seriously, "Yeah, An An is very handsome."

Lu An held Cheng Yan's face and kissed him several times. After the kiss, he wiped it and said, "It's okay, it's okay. There's no saliva, no saliva."

Cheng Yan blushed and said, "I don't mind. I like An An."

"Yes, I know. I like Cheng Yan, too. And I only like a little kid like you, Cheng Yan."

Cheng Yan looked at Lu An in disbelief, "Really?"

Seeing Cheng Yan's cute look, Lu An said, "Of course. After all, who doesn't like their own children?"

"Well, Cheng Yan remembered it."

"You're so good. Cheng Yan, try the cakes in the imperial kitchen first and see if they're delicious. I'll come in to see you later, okay?"

"good."

Tutor Zhou has been trembling ever since the Emperor asked him, "How is the Crown Prince doing in learning etiquette?" He knew that the Emperor was angry and was thinking about how to apologize. Then he saw Lu An bringing the prince into the palace alone.

Master Zhou wanted to stop Lu An, but he didn't dare to speak. He could only watch Lu An walk into the hall. Master Zhou secretly glanced at the emperor's expression, sighed quietly, and thought: Even if the emperor dotes on Lu An, Lu An can't do this! After all, he is the emperor.

Tutor Zhou was thinking of a solution in his mind. He thought that if the emperor got angry, he should just ask for help. After all, Lu An was not...

At this time, Tutor Zhou was paying attention to the emperor's actions. He was ready to kneel down and plead for Lu An as soon as the emperor got angry. Sure enough, he heard the emperor "humph" after a while. Tutor Zhou was about to kneel down while saying, "Your Majesty, Lu An's crime... is excusable..." But before he could kneel down, he was supported by Lu An who came out.

Master Zhou: …………

Seeing that Master Zhou was obviously preparing to plead for him, Lu An was actually a little touched. He had only bowed slightly when he saw Pei Yan just now, but he was actually kneeling down. He knew that Master Zhou was specially invited by Pei Yan to teach Cheng Yan. Lu An knew that Master Zhou was pedantic, but he was also clear-headed.

Lu An helped Master Zhou up and said with a smile, "It seems that Master Zhou has changed his mind about me. Did you want to plead for my little Anzi just now?"

Seeing that Lu An was still in the mood to laugh, Master Zhou couldn't help but glance at the emperor: "How can you be so unrestrained in front of the emperor!"

Lu An clasped his fists and bowed to Master Zhou, and said seriously: "Lu An will remember this."

Master Zhou: …………, what happened today?

After Lu An finished speaking, he walked to Pei Yan's side, held Pei Yan's face and said, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

Pei Yan said nothing, but turned his head to look at Eunuch De. Eunuch De immediately understood and quickly asked the eunuchs to retreat. Tutor Zhou, with a confused look on his face, followed Eunuch De into the hall.

Eunuch De looked at Grand Tutor Zhou and said, "Oh, it's okay. Little Anzi is very capable."

Master Zhou looked puzzled, "Hmm~?"

Eunuch De smiled and said nothing more. No matter who is in trouble, Xiao Anzi will not be in trouble. It was he who helped grind the ink when the emperor wrote the imperial edict this morning.

At this time, there were only Lu An and Pei Yan left in the yard. Seeing that Pei Yan looked unmoved, Lu An hugged Pei Yan's arm and leaned on him. What Lu An didn't expect was that Pei Yan actually took a step back!

Lu An stood up straight instantly. He stopped leaning and crossed his arms over his chest. He turned around and didn't look at Pei Yan, but he kept talking. "What are you doing? What's there to be angry about? I asked Cheng Yan to call me An An. What's wrong? Is there a problem? If I don't let him call me An An, what's wrong with me? Ah! You tell me yourself."

After Lu An finished speaking, he turned to look at Pei Yan, and then he saw Pei Yan raising his hands, as if he was about to pull him over. Lu An took a step back and said, "Don't touch me."

Pei Yan's hands froze, he didn't know whether to move or not, "An An, I haven't touched you yet."
