Chapter 616: If your Su family had a descendant like the Fude County Master
Lord Su quickly said in a serious tone, "I have something to see the Emperor about. Please let Eunuch Liu pass it on."
He originally wanted to find out how the emperor felt, but Liu Quan gave him a blunt and unyielding response with just one word.
"Sir Su, please wait a moment." Eunuch Liu said in a businesslike manner.
Eunuch Liu had a pretty good idea of why Lord Su came.
After all, a member of the Su family provoked the nephew of a clan prince because of a woman and beat him almost to death. This matter was widely circulated in the capital.
With the power of the Su family, it is like an egg hitting a rock when facing the prince's palace.
Liu Quan left the anxious Lord Su behind and opened the door of the imperial study.
"Hahaha……"
As soon as the door opened, the emperor's loud laughter was heard immediately.
Liu Quan, “…”
What did Princess Fude do to make the emperor laugh so hard?
Lord Su, “…”
Thank God, the emperor is happy.
Liu Quan entered the imperial study and was about to report that Lord Su wanted to see him when Emperor Tianxi ordered, "Go to Kunhe Palace!"
After saying that, he picked up a stack of drawings and Xuanyuan Jin's letter and stood up.
Liu Quan: “…Yes.”
He was so shocked that he completely forgot about Lord Su's request for a meeting.
Who would care about the request for an audience with a declining family and a retired patriarch now?
You know, the current queen lives in Kunhe Palace!
Since that incident, the young prince was deposed and the queen was imprisoned.
Although the emperor had also set foot in Kunhe Palace, he always went there quietly in the dead of night without disturbing anyone.
Moreover, he hadn't gone in yet, he was just standing outside the door.
Now, in broad daylight, the Emperor went to see the Empress with great fanfare...
Could it be that the Queen is going to regain her favor?
Is this... possible?
The Queen committed a serious taboo back then!
If it weren't for the outstanding achievements of General Shenwu, who resolutely surrendered his military power to save the Empress, the Empress and the young Crown Prince would have been deposed long ago...
Liu Quan's mind was churning with thoughts, but he kept a straight face as he hurried out to prepare the dragon chariot...
As soon as Emperor Tianxi stepped out of the imperial study, Lord Su immediately knelt down to pay his respects.
"Your Majesty, long live the Emperor!"
Emperor Tianxi glanced at Lord Su and got on the dragon sedan without stopping.
"Get going!" Eunuch Liu shouted.
Lord Su, “…”
The emperor ignored him?
Isn’t the emperor very happy?
Why ignore him?
Lord Su hurriedly got up and grabbed Eunuch Liu.
"Eunuch Liu..."
Eunuch Liu rolled his eyes secretly.
What's the point of calling me if the emperor ignores you?
"Master Su, please come back another day."
Eunuch Liu said this expressionlessly and quickly caught up with the dragon sedan chair.
But he thought to himself: We all have the surname Su. If your Su family has a descendant like Princess Fude, let alone the nephew of a royal prince, even if he is your own grandson, you will beat him.
Maybe the prince will have to go to your house to apologize and say that the beating was good...
The fact that Emperor Tianxi suddenly went to Kunhe Palace caused a stir not only in the harem, but also in the court.
No one knew what the emperor said in Kunhe Palace. All they knew was that when he went in, he was holding a large stack of papers in his hand, but when he came out, he was empty-handed.
Afterwards, the ministers in the court and the favored concubines in the harem discovered that there was an extra root carving ornament on the desk in the emperor's study.
It is fortunate enough to be placed in front of the emperor's desk, which shows that it is very much loved by the emperor.
As a result, root carvings and wood carvings soon became popular in the imperial court and the harem.
The prices of root carvings and wood carvings have also risen sharply...
People often come to Old Man Tian's house, wanting to buy root carvings and wood carvings at high prices.
However, they were all rejected by Old Man Tian.
As for Xiao Tangbao, he sent so many drawings to Emperor Tianxi with great expectations and attached all kinds of flattery, but in the end, only a few drawings were returned.
Fortunately, these drawings were all stamped with the emperor's seal.
"Brother, the Emperor must be missing you." Little Tangbao flipped through the drawings and said, "Look, there's not a single portrait of you here. They've all been confiscated by the Emperor..."
There was a hint of regret in Xiaotangbao's tone.
The little brother is so handsome and good-looking. If his portrait is sold overseas, it can also serve as a display of the mysterious oriental country, right?
What a pity, they were all left behind by the Emperor...
Xuanyuan Jin's eyes darkened when he heard what Xiao Tangbao said.
Then, he began to look through the things sent from the palace.
In the big camphorwood box, those brightly colored fabrics are definitely for little Tangbao.
There are also those small and exquisite head flowers, palace flowers, bead flowers, bracelets...
Without exception, they are definitely for little Tangbao.
Xuanyuan Jin was very satisfied with this.
Little girls should wear the finest fabrics and the most beautiful beads...
Xuanyuan Jin was looking through the books one by one, and his eyes suddenly focused on a small rosewood box with gold edges.
This is……
Xuanyuan Jin slowly picked up the small box.
Little Tangbao happened to come over and saw Xuanyuan Jin's strange expression. He couldn't help but ask, "Brother, what is this?"
Xuanyuan Jin did not answer, but opened the box directly, revealing a pair of small white jade bracelets.
"This is what my mother wore when she was a child."
Xuanyuan Jin said, took out a bracelet, pulled Xiao Tangbao's hand over, and put the bracelet on Xiao Tangbao's wrist.
The crystal clear and delicate bracelet looks really beautiful on little Tangbao's fair and chubby wrist.
Little Tangbao raised his wrist and thought proudly, this was worn by the Queen.
But, is this for yourself?
"My mother said that when she gave birth to a younger sister, I would give it to her."
As Xuanyuan Jin spoke, he put another small bracelet on Xiao Tangbao's wrist.
When Xiao Tangbao heard this, he quickly said, "Then let's keep it for the Queen. Maybe one day the Queen will give birth to a little princess..."
As Xiao Tangbao said this, he was about to take off the bracelet.
Xuanyuan Jin stopped Xiao Tangbao directly.
"Aren't you my sister? My mother specially ordered someone to send the bracelet to me because she treats you as her daughter." Xuanyuan Jin said.
What Xuanyuan Jin didn't say was that this was the first time he had received something from his mother in these few years.
He knew that his mother was imprisoned and the things in Kunhe Palace could not be sent out.
Therefore, he never complained about his mother, but was only worried about her situation.
He knew that his mother loved him.
Now that the Queen Mother's bracelet has been delivered here, does it mean that the Queen Mother is now free?
Will the Queen Mother...come to see me?
A glimmer of light flashed quickly in Xuanyuan Jin's eyes.
Then, it disappeared again.
Even if the emperor pardoned my mother, she wouldn't have come all the way here...
"Brother, do you miss mom?" asked Xiao Tangbao.
Xuanyuan Jin, "..."
I wanted to say no, but when I met the little Tangbao's bright eyes, I couldn't say the word to deny it.
"Yes." Xuanyuan Jin said softly, allowing himself a moment of vulnerability.
Xiao Tangbao immediately said sympathetically, "Brother, don't cry. Look, your father can come to see you. Who knows, your mother will come to see you too."
Xuanyuan Jin, "..."
I didn't cry!
