Chu Jinglin was frightened by Han Xiao's request. No one had ever dared to make such a request to the emperor.
Seeing that the emperor looked unhappy, Chu Jinglin wanted to stand up and speak for Han Xiao.
But looking at the Second Prince who was staring at him covetously, Chu Jinglin clenched his fists and lowered his head.
Han Xiao also looked at the emperor calmly. The whole hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
No one dared to breathe, and some ministers could even imagine how Han Xiao would be punished by the emperor.
Unexpectedly, after a long while, the emperor burst into laughter. He walked forward and patted Han Xiao on the shoulder while laughing: "Well, well, well, it's been a long time since anyone has been so presumptuous in front of me. You... are really the first one."
Han Xiao was calm, he was sure that the emperor would agree to his request.
After all, this was not a difficult task for the emperor.
Moreover, he had a guess in his mind when Han Xiao came in, and making this request now was also a test of the emperor.
As expected, Han Xiao roughly confirmed it in his heart.
Han Xiao lowered his head and said, "I dare not. Your Majesty, please do not blame me for my recklessness."
The emperor waved his hand and said, "It's alright. Are you sure you don't want anything? You know that it's not impossible to be offered a title of nobility or prime minister for a fortune."
The emperor looked at Han Xiao meaningfully, wanting to know what he would choose.
Han Xiao still shook his head: "I don't need any of these. I still hope that His Majesty can agree to one of my requests in the future."
This request is equivalent to the young master's golden ticket to immunity from death.
No matter what, Han Xiao will be prepared for both situations, and he will never take the young master's life safety lightly.
"Okay, I agree to your request." The emperor took off a jade pendant with a dragon pattern from his body.
"Keep this jade pendant. Take it and come to me in person."
Now everyone looked over. They didn’t expect the emperor to play such a big game and directly give the personal jade pendant to Han Xiao.
This is almost equivalent to Han Xiao holding a blank imperial edict.
Suddenly, some ministers with deep thoughts began to look at Han Xiao, wanting to gain some benefits from him.
Even the second prince looked at Han Xiao with jealousy. He didn't expect that such a lowly poor man could receive such grace just because of a telescope.
Chu Jinglin breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, his father was not angry, otherwise he really didn't know how to save Han Xiao.
Han Xiao put away the dragon-patterned jade pendant without looking at it carefully and placed it in his arms. This would be the second life of their Han family from now on, so he had to keep it well.
"Amitabha, Your Majesty is wise." Hearing the old monk say this, the emperor felt a little better.
He waved his hand and let Han Xiao leave.
Only after Master Yuan Jing took Han Xiao out did Han Xiao relax.
When he relaxed, he found that his entire back was wet.
Master Yuan Jing also said to Han Xiao curiously: "Donor Han, you are too bold. That's the emperor."
Master Yuan Jing was originally a very steady person, but this time he was also frightened by Han Xiao.
Han Xiao shook his head and made a harmless joke: "Wealth and honor are sought in danger. It seems that the Buddha is still on my side."
"Amitabha, Amitabha, Mr. Han, please don't talk nonsense." Master Yuan Jing looked at Han Xiao helplessly and said.
He has been with Han Xiao for nearly a month and has probably understood Han Xiao's personality. Sometimes he is just so eccentric that even the host can't do anything about him.
After sending Han Xiao back to the room, Yuan Jing hurried back. Han Xiao changed his clothes that were soaked with sweat on the mountain, and then put the dragon-patterned jade pendant into his bag.
I'll give it to the young master when I get home, so that anyone who wants to touch the young master in the future will have to think twice.
After finishing everything, Han Xiao sat down and continued to copy the scriptures, which was also one of Han Xiao's daily homework.
Apart from anything else, after practicing with the old monk, Han Xiao felt that his control over his body movements had improved a lot.
Even his physical fitness has improved a lot, and he is stronger than his previous self in modern times.
Sometimes Han Xiao would spar with the monks from Guoan Temple, and occasionally they would end up in a draw.
Time passed unknowingly. Han Xiao needed to concentrate all his attention on copying the scriptures. When he looked up again, it was already dark.
Han Xiao's stomach growled twice. He put down the brush in his hand and wondered why dinner had not been delivered yet.
Logically speaking, the emperor should have returned by this time.
When I opened the door, there was no one outside the room, but the front hall not far away was still brightly lit.
Han Xiao couldn't bear it any longer and prepared to secretly go to the front hall to take a look and find something to eat.
I don’t know if Master Yuan Jing has forgotten me.
Before I even stepped out of the courtyard, I saw Master Yuan Xin coming over with a tray.
Seeing Han Xiao about to leave, he asked questioningly, "Donor Han, where are you going?"
Han Xiao retracted his foot and said softly, "Nothing, I'm just a little hungry and want to find something to eat. Where's Master Yuan Jing? Why isn't he coming over?"
In the past, it was Master Yuan Jing who delivered food to Han Xiao, but this was the first time that Yuan Xin delivered food to Han Xiao.
Master Yuan Xin handed the tray to Han Xiao, stretched his wrist, and then said, "Oh, don't say it. The emperor is here to pray and all the brothers are in the front hall now."
"Oh? The Emperor hasn't left yet?"
Yuan Xin shook his head and sighed. Every time the emperor came to their temple, there was chaos and war.
"Okay, then you go back quickly. I will send it to the kitchen myself after I finish eating." Han Xiao has become quite familiar with Guoan Temple.
At least he knew where the kitchen was.
Young Master Yuan Xin nodded and then said to Han Xiao, "By the way, Master Han said you can go down the mountain tomorrow."
Han Xiao's hands trembled upon hearing this news. He looked at Master Yuan Xin uncertainly and asked, "Can I go down the mountain now? Really? Did the master say so?"
After being asked three questions in a row, Master Yuan Xin was somewhat speechless. "Yes, it is true. I believe that Mr. Han has also felt it. So your body is fine now. However, you should still try to copy the scriptures every day."
After getting a definite answer, Han Xiao's heart leaped with joy, and he couldn't hide the upward smile on his lips.
"Okay, I understand, Master Yuanxin. You should go back quickly. I'll pack my things and leave early tomorrow morning."
Now Han Xiao's heart has flown back and he has no intention of thinking about anything else.
Young Master Yuan Xin also noticed that Han Xiao was absent-minded. Although he didn't know what Han Xiao was happy about, he scratched his bald head and turned to walk out.
Han Xiao simply ate some food, and the upward curve of his mouth never dropped.
It's been a month, and I don't know how Ruanruan is doing.
