Chapter 35 Who dares to go against my will?
Mo Yuan came to the Minguang Hall as if he was being chased by a dog. As soon as he entered the Minguang Hall, he saw Pei Yan calmly reviewing memorials. At this moment, he didn't know how to start talking.
Mo Yuan looked at Pei Yan and wondered if he knew that he had done something so shocking that it would shake the world and make the ghosts weep?
The jade pendant was the only thing Pei Yan's mother left him. When the two were in the army, Pei Yan said, "This jade pendant is for the person he will choose in this life."
That's why Mo Yuan was so shocked when he saw Lu An holding the jade pendant.
Pei Yan looked at Mo Yuan's anxious look and knew what he was going to ask.
Mo Yuan had just organized his words and was about to speak when he heard Pei Yan say calmly, "If you ask about the jade pendant, it's what you saw."
When Mo Yuan heard this, his scalp went numb. He raised his injured hand and pointed to the side hall tremblingly, "But he is a eunuch! And you are the emperor of the whole world!" There was an imperceptible tremor in Mo Yuan's voice.
Pei Yan raised his head, his eyebrows revealing an unquestionable authority, looking at Mo Yuan and slightly opened his thin lips: "So what?"
Mo Yuan knelt down and said respectfully, "I am not questioning Your Majesty, but what people say is scary. The road to becoming an emperor is paved with bones. How will you be recorded in history books ten thousand years from now? How will the people of this world view you? Has Your Majesty ever thought about this?"
Pei Yan stood on the throne with his hands behind his back, his eyes slightly raised: "The lives of the people in the world all depend on my thoughts. I hold the power, who dares to go against my will? I can protect the world and the people I love."
Mo Yuan couldn't calm down for a long time...
Mo Yuan looked up at Pei Yan and thought: But the emperor's love is illusory, so how will that little eunuch cope with it then?
Lu An had no idea what was happening in Mingguang Palace. He now brought Xuanying and Long Qi to his small kitchen to light a fire and prepare to roast sweet potatoes. Autumn is coming and they must eat sweet roasted sweet potatoes.
Lu An looked at the sweet potato in his hand and thought: I will send one to Pei Yan later, and today's snack will be complete. I am really smart.
Lu An put the washed sweet potatoes aside and started to make a fire. While making the fire, he deliberately asked Xuanying to stay away. There was no other way. The hairless Xuanying was too crazy and he couldn't resist.
After the fire was burning brightly, Lu An threw the sweet potatoes in one by one, and finally the whole fire pit was full. Lu An threw a sweet potato to each person, including Pei Yan, Xuan Ying, Eunuch De, Long Qi and me. It turned out that he had someone he cared about in this world without realizing it.
After a while, a rich caramel aroma wafted out. Gently breaking it open, the steaming orange-yellow flesh came into view. Lu An let it dry for a while before giving it to Xuanying. Xuanying ate the roasted sweet potato happily. Sure enough, Xiangxiang still liked me the most.
Lu An packed Pei Yan's and the others' separately and gave one to Long Qi first. Long Qi was very surprised when he took it, as he didn't expect that there would be a share for him.
Lu An came to the entrance of Minguang Hall with the things and handed one to Eunuch De, who took it happily.
When Lu An entered the Mingguang Hall, he saw Pei Yan alone and thought: It seems that Mo Yuan has left. He took the roasted sweet potatoes out of the box.
Pei Yan was speechless as he looked at the thing whose skin was burnt black and even a little wrinkled. He couldn't tell what it was for a moment.
Palace cuisine places more emphasis on refinement and etiquette, so Pei Yan had never seen this kind of folk snack before and didn't know how to start.
[Why isn’t Pei Yan eating yet?] 】
[It will become cold and not tasty after a while]
[Pei Yan must have eaten it before, right? 】
Lu An thought about it and realized that this was indeed possible. The food cooked in the imperial kitchen was very exquisite. Pei Yan must have never seen something as dark as this?
Lu An had no choice but to step forward, stretched out his hand to tear off the outer skin and said: "Your Majesty, this is a folk snack, it's delicious, you can try it."
Pei Yan looked at Lu An's hands as he moved. His fingers were long and slender, with distinct joints but not abrupt, and the fingertips were slightly pink.
Pei Yan somehow followed Lu An's hand and took a bite of the roasted sweet potato. It had a sweet taste, with the caramelized aroma of the skin and the sweet and sticky inside intertwined together. It was indeed delicious.
Seeing that Pei Yan had no intention of doing it himself, Lu An fed Pei Yan a whole roasted sweet potato.
[A male favorite should have the awareness of a male favorite]
[This is what I should do, I endure it]
After eating, Pei Yan said: That’s all? He hasn't eaten enough yet.
