Upon hearing the reply from the young eunuch that Chu Yi had disobeyed the imperial order, Xiao Ling's face became frighteningly gloomy.

The young eunuch was afraid of bringing trouble upon himself, so he told the truth about Chu Yi's disobedience to the imperial order. As for Chu Yi's description of the emperor as a dog and having ulterior motives, he did not dare to mention a single word.

But she could roughly guess what Xiao Ling was thinking and what Chu Yi's attitude towards her was.

Chu Yi, the treacherous minister, might be cursing me behind my back.

All in all, the matter was a failure, and she was too lazy to care what Chu Yi said.

She was just a little annoyed, and she racked her brains all night trying to use this plan to show her goodwill.

It was clearly such a friendly intention, but Chu Yi actually refused?

Can there be even a tiny bit of trust between the ruler and his subjects?

What's more, she spent a lot of money to persuade the family of Xie Du Yushi this time, and Xie Du Yushi's little daughter was so beautiful, how could Chu Yi not be moved?

Was it because he was too careless and didn't send his trusted confidant to pass on the order? Did he fail to show his attitude?

Xiao Ling sat on the dragon throne, thinking about this and that, and was too lazy to care about the young eunuch who was still kneeling in the hall.

"Your Majesty, when I returned, Lord Chu said he had a treasure to give to Your Majesty, to show his loyalty and patriotism..."

The emperor ignored him with a gloomy face, but the young eunuch, with the attitude of having to do his job, took the initiative to remind him.

After all, his life depends on the box sent by Lord Chu.

"treasure?"

Xiao Ling was stunned when he heard this. He looked up curiously and noticed the exquisite box in the eunuch's hand.

In his impression, the traitor Chu Yi seemed to have been pretending nothing in front of him over the years and had no attitude of loyalty to the emperor at all.

Now he is actually offering to give me a treasure?

Xiao Ling didn't even have to think about it.

There is a conspiracy!

Are you saying that Chu Yi is trying to be nice because he's afraid of offending me?

Impossible. If he had such an attitude, he would not be Chu Yi. Why would I go through so much trouble?

However, at this time, Xiao Ling knew that it would be useless to guess more, so he could only wave to the eunuch.

"What treasure is it? Show it to me."

Hearing this, the young eunuch did not dare to hesitate and hurried forward to put the box on the desk.

"Your Majesty, Lord Chu said so, but I don't know what good things are inside."

"Yes, I know."

Xiao Ling waved his hand and stared at the box in front of him for a while, "Open it."

In fact, he was curious. The little eunuch was curious all the way. At this time, Xiao Ling was also wondering what Chu Yi was planning.

The eunuch who received the order did not hesitate and carefully opened the lid of the box.

Xiao Ling couldn't help but lean forward.

Just one glance and her expression became a little more strange.

"What...what is this?"

She was really a little baffling.

Because, what was placed in the box was an ordinary booklet.

The booklet looked quite thick. Fortunately, he could confirm for the time being that what the Chu thief had given him was not something dangerous.

After thinking about it, Xiao Ling simply reached out and started flipping through it out of curiosity.

In the palace, the young eunuch who brought back the news was also a little stunned.

It’s fine that Lord Chu disobeyed the imperial order, saying that he wanted to bring a good thing to His Majesty, but what is the meaning of this picture album?

The young eunuch had good eyesight. The appearance of the album was ordinary, and he seemed to have seen it somewhere.

But for a moment, he couldn't remember.

Xiao Ling just flipped through it casually and froze.

Then, her entire face turned from blue to green, and then from green to red.

At this moment, the handsome man's face was now stained with a layer of crimson that was very inappropriate for his gender.

The maid Yuzhu, who was standing by, couldn't help but look puzzled when she saw that His Majesty's face was inexplicably blushing.

Mu Ci looked even more weird.

It’s strange. What did Your Majesty read in the book that made him as shy as a little girl?

Regardless of the emperor's blushing attitude in the palace at this moment,

Anyway, the little eunuch kneeling on the ground began to panic.

He was curious and pondered all the way.

He felt like he had eaten dog shit.

What a sin——

He just felt that there was something wrong with the book, absolutely something wrong!

There's something dirty!

To make the emperor lose his manners in front of the palace.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty?"
