The young monk calmly bowed to Han Xiao before saying, "The abbot said you can do it alone and he doesn't need to accompany you. An important person is coming today, so the abbot is busy."
Big shot? What kind of big shot?
Han Xiao let go of the little monk and said softly, "Thank you, little master."
The young master didn't care about Han Xiao's weakness just now and continued to do his work.
Han Xiao walked out of the hall and wandered around casually, wondering who this important person was. Could he be the one in the palace who could make the old monk go there in person?
Han Xiao was shocked when he thought about this. The more he thought about it, the more it made sense. He also knew that the emperor could ask the old monk who was the imperial teacher to go to greet him.
After knowing this, Emperor Han Xiao lost interest and simply went back to his room to continue copying scriptures.
I don’t know how long it took, but I could hear the faint sound of bells outside.
Han Xiao had been here for so long and had never heard the bell ring except in the morning.
Judging from the noise, the emperor must have arrived.
Han Xiao shook his head, put aside the thoughts in his mind, and continued copying.
Unfortunately, today might not be a suitable day to copy scriptures, so Yuan Jing hurriedly knocked on Han Xiao's door.
"Donor Han, Donor Han."
Hearing Yuan Jing's anxious voice, Han Xiao thought something had gone wrong. He immediately put down his pen and opened the door: "What's wrong, Master Yuan Jing?"
Yuan Jing wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a gasp, "Come with me quickly. Master asked me to call you over."
"I go over there? Where to?" Han Xiao pointed at himself, not understanding why the old monk asked him to go over there.
"I don't know either. It was my master's order. Please come with me quickly." He looked at Han Xiao's clothes and felt that there was nothing wrong with them before pulling him to the main hall.
Han Xiao was pulled by Yuan Jing to jog all the way. Along the way, he saw many monks with solemn expressions and hurried steps. He didn't know what was going on.
After following Yuan Jing to the main hall, there was a large group of people standing in front of the main hall, including many court officials.
It seems that my guess was right, the emperor really came.
These officials obviously knew Master Yuan Jing. When they saw Master Yuan Jing pulling Han Xiao, Han Xiao felt many eyes falling on him for a moment.
Han Xiao's expression remained unchanged. He let them look at him and followed Yuan Jing past them and walked in.
When they got here, Yuan Jing whispered, "When someone asks you a question later, just answer truthfully."
Han Xiao looked up at Yuan Jing in confusion. Could it be that the emperor had something to ask him?
If I think about it carefully, it seems that I don't have anything worthy of the emperor's attention.
"Okay, I understand. Master Yuan Jing, don't worry." Han Xiao replied.
Yuan Jing took a deep breath, then walked in with his head lowered.
"Your Majesty, I have brought Master Han Xiao with me."
When Han Xiao came in, he kept his head down and didn't dare to look up. After all, Han Xiao had watched TV and knew that he couldn't look directly at the emperor.
Han Xiao also noticed Yuan Jing's actions, and he also kept his head down.
Han Xiao followed Yuan Jing and knelt down.
He felt a majestic gaze falling on him: "Are you Han Xiao?"
"Yes, Your Majesty." Han Xiao answered respectfully.
"Lift your head and let me see."
Although Han Xiao was very unhappy, he still raised his head obediently.
Only then could Han Xiao see clearly the people in the front hall.
The front hall of Guoan Temple is very large, but it seems a bit crowded at this moment.
There were quite a few people standing in the hall, and Han Xiao even saw Chu Jinglin and the second prince.
Standing in the middle was a middle-aged man with a dignified face. He was wearing a black robe and seemed low-key, but in fact, the black robe was covered with dark patterns of almost the same color. Han Xiao's eyesight was pretty good, and these dark patterns were obviously dragon patterns.
Presumably, this person should be the current emperor. The emperor does not look very old, probably in his thirties. While Han Xiao was secretly looking at the emperor, the emperor was also looking at Han Xiao.
After a long while, the emperor said something ambiguous: "Just barely enough."
It was unknown who this sentence was directed to, but Han Xiao heard it clearly. Since the emperor had said so, Han Xiao could only kneel down and thank him. No matter what the emperor said, he just had to thank him.
Seeing Han Xiao kneel down again, the emperor nodded with satisfaction: "Alright, stand up. I heard from the Imperial Master that this little toy was given by you?"
Only then did Han Xiao realize that the emperor was holding a telescopic telescope in his hand. This telescope was the result of countless improvements made by Han Xiao and the craftsmen to make it so telescopic and more convenient to carry.
Currently, only Chu Jinglin, the old monk and Mr. Qinghe have one, so it seems that this root belongs to the old monk.
Han Xiao stood up and said, "These are some small things I made. I am grateful for your kindness, Master Imperial Master, so I took them out and gave them to you as a thank you gift."
"Oh~ So that's how it is. Master Imperial Master, what favor did you do for this kid that he could give you such a clever thing." The emperor played with the telescope and could hardly let it go.
The old monk clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, this donor Han and I have a connection."
The other old monks did not elaborate, and the emperor could do nothing about him, so he could only look at Han Xiao again.
"Tell me how to use this thing." After the emperor got the telescope, he didn't know how to use it, and the old monk didn't tell him.
Chu Jinglin knew it, but he would not be the first to speak out.
When the telescope was first made, Chu Jinglin asked Han Xiao to keep it confidential and never sell it in the strange objects section, otherwise if it was bought by someone with ulterior motives, there would be a big mess.
After Chu Jinglin got the telescope, he once again realized how powerful it was.
So the telescopes were all produced in secret by Han Xiao.
It is normal that the emperor doesn’t know.
Seeing that the emperor said so, Han Xiao stood up and walked to the emperor to teach him how to use it.
Before he could get close, he was stopped by the eunuch beside the emperor: "How dare you..."
"It's okay, let him come over." Hearing that Han Xiao was stopped by the eunuch beside him, the emperor raised his eyelids and said.
The eunuch looked at Han Xiao embarrassedly, but since the emperor had spoken, he had no choice but to let him go.
"Thank you, eunuch." Han Xiao bowed to express his gratitude, and his courtesy was very perfect, leaving no room for fault.
Walking up to the emperor, Han Xiao bent down and said to him, "Please give me the telescope."
The emperor put it in Han Xiao's hand without hesitation.
The telescope had a scale. Han Xiao adjusted it before handing it to the emperor and asking him to put it in front of his eyes.
The emperor took it curiously and looked at it according to Han Xiao's instructions. Sure enough, through the telescope, the emperor saw the scenery outside the temple.
I put down the telescope and looked again, but this time I couldn't see anything clearly with my naked eyes.
