Mr. Qinghe didn't say anything, but handed the box to Han Xiao and let him look at it himself.
Han Xiao took the box with a puzzled look on his face, wondering what kind of good thing the old monk had sent him.
When the box was opened, a long string of prayer beads was placed on the bright yellow brocade. Each bead was made of transparent red glass. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that this string of prayer beads was of great value.
More importantly, there is a relic at the bottom of the rosary. Han Xiao took out the rosary, and the people who were closer to Han Xiao could see it clearly. Suddenly, there was a commotion in the hall.
"This...this rosary, the Imperial Master actually gave it away?"
"Yeah, does the Imperial Master value the Han family so much?"
"Oh my god, so many nobles wanted this rosary, but the Imperial Master avoided them."
"Yes, yes, I remember that when the Empress gave birth to the little prince, she went to the Guoan Temple. I think she wanted to ask for this rosary. I didn't expect that the Imperial Master would actually give it to the Han family..."
“…”
While the others were still whispering to each other, Lu Qingyun's eyes were almost popping out of his head. This rosary had been enshrined in the Guoan Temple for nearly a hundred years, and it was just given to Han Xiao like that? No, it should be Chao Chao?
No matter how stupid Han Xiao was at this time, he knew the importance of this rosary, so he simply took it off and put it on Xiao Chaochao.
Little Chaochao had no idea how precious this thing was. He just thought his father was playing a joke on him.
He smiled at Han Xiao, revealing his gums which had not yet grown teeth. Looking at his son's funny look, Han Xiao wanted to take a camera to take a picture of him.
Then when Xiao Chaochao gets married, he will put it at the wedding so that his lover can see how ugly he was when he was a child.
It’s a pity that there were no cameras in ancient times, Han Xiao thought regretfully.
Han Mingyuan and Mr. Qinghe also came over. The rosary was almost as long as Xiao Chaochao. Mr. Qinghe even told the wet nurse several times to keep an eye on Xiao Chaochao and not let him get entangled by the rosary.
Everyone else looked at the child with envy and jealousy. Such a tiny kid actually won the favor of the national teacher.
And Mr. Qinghe is here to protect us.
Han Xiao just thought that his son was the male protagonist in some cool novel.
After putting away the rosary, Han Xiao took Master Yuan Xin to the table. Unexpectedly, Master Yuan Xin shook his head and said, "Donor Han, please don't bother. The gift has been delivered. I will be back soon."
Han Xiao was stunned. "So soon? Aren't you going to stay and play for a while?"
Han Xiao knew that although this young Master Yuan Xin looked serious on the surface, he was actually still a child.
He still likes new things. When Han Xiao went to Guoan Temple, he brought a lot of small gadgets to Master Yuan Xin.
Although Master Yuan Xin said that he was not doing his job properly, he accepted the gift.
Young Master Yuan Xin also shook his head helplessly. He also wanted to play for a while, but his master had specifically told him to go back early.
Seeing this, Han Xiao stopped trying to persuade them and personally escorted Master Yuan Xin to the door, watching them get on the carriage and leave.
Back in the hall, others were still discussing why the Imperial Master wanted to give the rosary to Han Xiao.
Seeing that Han Xiao was picked up, his voice became much lower, but Han Xiao could still hear it clearly.
If they knew that not only this rosary, but also the bracelet of Buddhist beads that the old monk wore all year round was on the young master, I don’t know what they would think.
After Master Yuan Xin left, the banquet became lively again.
Unexpectedly, this time another servant rushed in to report.
"Master, Master, there's someone else outside..."
Han Xiao frowned. Who else would come at this time?
"Just let them in with the invitation. Why are you so anxious? Don't you have any manners at all?"
Han Xiao said coldly.
The servant was frightened and tremblingly said, "No, sir, they don't have an invitation..."
"No invitation?" Han Xiao was puzzled. It would be impolite to come without an invitation.
"Yes...it's Eunuch Dexi..."
As soon as the servant's voice fell, Han Mingyuan stood up and asked in surprise: "What? Eunuch Dexi?"
"Yes...but it was Eunuch Dexi who came with his friends..."
"Stop talking nonsense and quickly invite Eunuch Dexi in. Han Xiao, come with me."
Han Mingyuan said this, picked up his robe and ran out.
Han Xiao followed Han Mingyuan helplessly, wondering what was going on.
His son was just holding a simple full moon banquet, but he didn't expect so many important people to come.
Taking Han Xiao with him, the Han family's servants rushed out the door.
Although the other guests were confused, many of them heard what the servant who just reported said.
There are more and more people gossiping.
It’s the Guoan Temple and it belongs to Eunuch Dexi. What is the origin of this Han family?
When I walked outside, I saw Eunuch Dexi standing there in casual clothes, with two men standing beside him.
Han Xiao took a closer look and his pupils trembled. It turned out to be the emperor and Chu Jinglin.
However, neither of them wore court robes, but were both dressed in inconspicuous casual clothes.
There was a disguise on his face, not to mention Han Xiao had met Emperor Chu Jinglin before, so he recognized him immediately.
Han Mingyuan was not familiar with them and thought they might be friends of Grandpa Dexi, so he just glanced at them and didn't look at them any further. Staring at others is impolite and ungentlemanly.
"Eunuch Dexi, why are you here?" Han Mingyuan bowed and said respectfully.
Eunuch Dexi quickly helped this man up. In the past, he could accept this gift with peace of mind, but now Han Mingyuan's status is different.
"Hey, there's no need to be so polite, my dear. We came here privately today. Thinking of this auspicious day, we came to share in the joy. I wonder if you will welcome me." Eunuch Dexi said with a smile.
Han Xiao thought to himself, why are you, a eunuch, trying to take advantage of the good fortune? Can't you find a better reason to bring the emperor here?
"Of course, welcome, welcome. Please come in, and both of you please come in as well." For some reason, Han Mingyuan always felt that the young man looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.
The emperor and Chu Jinglin just nodded without saying a word and followed Han Mingyuan into the room.
Han Xiao walked at the back and quietly tugged at Chu Jinglin's foot, asking with his eyes: "What's going on? Why are you here?"
Chu Jinglin smiled and mouthed: Come and see Ruanruan.
Han Xiao thought, "Don't I know you're here to see Ruanruan? I wanted to ask you why you wanted to come here so openly today."
What if I get recognized?
But if you think about it carefully, it seems that the emperor is the only one who has never seen Ruanruan.
