Chapter 9 The Wind Rises

Pei Yan and his group walked out of the pavilion and headed towards Minguang Hall.

The Queen Mother looked at the backs of Pei Yan and his group and thought: I should not have kept him back then, I should have burned him and his mother to death. If Pei Yan had not known how to avoid the spotlight at such a young age, and pretended to be obedient and stupid, making me think that he was an easy-to-control and indecisive person, he would not have sat in this position.

"I thought I had raised a dog, but it turned out to be a man-eating wolf. Ha, a mere Minister of Revenue cannot shake my position. The court is still under my control, and I am just making small moves."

During the whole journey, Lu An's thoughts never stopped. Pei Yan really couldn't imagine why a person could have so many psychological activities. It turned out that he was usually timid and said everything in his heart.

[That Queen Mother doesn't look like a good person at first glance]

[Sarcastic phase]

Pei Yan nodded when he heard this. It seemed that this little eunuch was not so stupid.

[What should I feed the dog later? I remember carrots growing hairs.]

[By the way, animal liver is also OK. Seeing how strong the dog is, he probably doesn’t like to eat vegetarian food.]

Pei Yan thought to himself: No, no, no. Your dog likes to eat everything.

The group quickly arrived at the Minguang Hall, and Lu An and Gou Zi returned to the side hall.

Pei Yan walked to the inner hall and said slowly: "It seems that the Queen Mother can no longer sit still. Now the palace's finances are in my hands. I have been planning for this matter for a long time."

"Let Prime Minister Zhu handle the matter of the Minister of Revenue Zhang. This is also a warning to those who are neutral. If they want to take sides, they must weigh the consequences."

"Now it's time to start taking action against those noble families. Behind the Queen Mother are mainly the Wang family, Zhao Di and Qinghe Cui Di."

"It was with the support of these noble families that the late emperor was able to gain a firm foothold in the State of Wei, but this also led to a situation where 'the king and the horse ruled the world'."

"The Queen Mother is so eager to take concubines to me, it must be the request of those noble families."

Mo Yuan replied respectfully: "The Queen Mother is probably trying to suppress your power, Your Majesty, and further control the court." Pei Yan played with the jade pendant in his hand, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "How could I not know?"

"However, it is not easy to deal with these aristocratic families." Mo Yuan frowned slightly, looking worried.

At this time, Lu An and Xuan Ying were lying on the bed, one person and one dog, looking at each other. Lu An was looking at the frisbee back and forth in his hand.

This was the scene Xia Yun saw when she came in. Lu An was lying on Xuan Ying, stroking her fur while talking. Xuan Ying did not resist and let Lu An touch her, even responding from time to time. Of course, Xia Yun also saw what Lu An was holding in his hand. Normally, she could not even get close to that.

Xia Yun's back teeth were almost broken as he thought: What's so special about this little eunuch?

Xia Yun came to call Xuanying to have lunch. Every time Xuanying went to eat with His Majesty, Xia Yun could also take this opportunity to meet the Emperor. But Eunuch De just said that Xuanying would be under the full responsibility of Lu An from now on. How could she not hate him?

When Lu An and Xuan Ying arrived at the Minguang Palace, they saw palace maids and eunuchs coming in and out and starting to serve the meal. Although it was not the first time Lu An had seen this scene, he was still shocked every time.

[Can you finish all these dishes? What a waste!]

[Ahhhhh, I want to eat this too. I want to eat this so much.]

[Look at the color, the presentation is comparable to Michelin]

[This is too exquisite. I also want to be the emperor]

Pei Yan knew Lu An was coming without looking up. The sound of his heart was so loud that his ears were almost deafened. Pei Yan wondered, what is Michelin?

Pei Yan is now used to Lu An telling him things he doesn't understand from time to time. Is that dish really that delicious?

Pei Yan had been eating for so many years, but he never thought anything was delicious. After hearing what Lu An said, he really felt a little hungry.
