Outside the main hall of Guanju Palace.
Two palace maids held palace lanterns, Xuan Ling stood in the moonlight, and behind him stood a row of sturdy and strong guards with swords.
"Your Majesty, should we have someone pry the door open?"
Eunuch Fu observed his expression and said, "Why not bring the young master over from the west warm room? When he arrives, Concubine Zhaoyi will definitely open the door."
Xuan Ling glared at him with eagle eyes.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I didn't say that the young master is more important to Concubine Zhaoyi than the emperor. I just wanted to say..."
Xuan Ling regretted that he had wanted to spend some time alone together tonight, so he placed Jiang Jiang and Le Wen in the west warm pavilion to play and rest.
Even if the young woman didn't open the door, her son would definitely open it for her.
At this time, Dun Guiyuan walked out from the side hall.
After hearing the news from the palace maid, she quickly changed into a bright dress.
Seeing Xuan Ling's dress, she couldn't help but blush and her heart beat fast, and she shyly twisted her waist to face him.
"Your Majesty, your attire today..."
Xuan Ling glanced coldly and asked, "How?"
Dun Guiyuan shook her body and said delicately, "She is so beautiful that I fell in love with her at first sight and couldn't help myself."
Xuan Ling sighed, "I am naturally impeccable, but I just happened to meet a tough nut to crack."
I have spoiled that woman so much that she actually refused to let the emperor in.
A mosquito was buzzing nearby. Eunuch Fu stood on tiptoe to swat it, but he bumped into Xuan Ling's shoulder and was pushed away.
Eunuch Fu served in front of the emperor every day, and he could see that the emperor's anger had reached the point where he had to vent it.
He knelt down quickly and said, "Your Majesty, I say you are too indulgent towards Concubine Zhaoyi. Tell the guards to kick the door open. Why are you just sitting here feeding mosquitoes?"
Xuan Ling kicked him, "You little dog slave."
"Your Majesty, I am truly distressed... Your loyalty is evident to all..."
Dun Guiyuan said in a delicate voice, "Your Majesty, please go to the side hall and let me give you a massage. I have just learned a little song and I will sing it to you."
Xuan Ling put away the folding fan and threw it to Eunuch Fu.
Heading towards the courtyard wall, the guards quickly followed.
"Your Majesty, are you going to climb over the wall?"
Eunuch Fu immediately ordered the guards to clear the debris from the courtyard wall.
Dun Guiyuan said, "Your Majesty, why do you insist on going in? This will make Concubine Chen even more proud and she will look down on you even more! If you want to climb over the wall, go to the side hall, where the wall is lower."
"Shut up!" Xuan Ling scolded.
What Dun Guiyuan said was true. The outer blue brick wall of the courtyard was not short, but rather quite high.
Xuan Ling retreated ten steps and rubbed his hands. Eight guards immediately approached the courtyard wall from both sides for protection.
In an instant, Xuan Ling ran as fast as lightning and took a few steps. In the dark night, he was like a white eagle, easily jumping over the high courtyard wall.
It stopped steadily inside the courtyard wall.
In the yard, Xiao Zhuozi thought he was dazzled. What white thing just flew in from the east wall?
He ran over in a hurry, only to see that it was Emperor Xuanwu.
"emperor!"
As soon as he shouted, several palace maids including Shanhu came running and knelt down.
Xuan Ling lowered his head to look for something, and Xiao Zhuozi asked, "Your Majesty, what are you looking for?"
The emperor picked up a piece of ceramic fragment from the ground.
In order to make that young woman feel distressed, I had no choice but to resort to this last resort.
He poked the pointed end of the porcelain shard into his palm.
Hua Xia ran into the inner hall, "Your Majesty! The Emperor is here!"
I was so excited that I couldn't speak.
Sheng Xiyan climbed from the couch to the carved window, stretched her neck, and saw a tall man in a white robe with a smile on his red lips.
Suddenly, Xiao Zhuozi and Shanhu were heard shouting, "Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
Sheng Xiyan's heart skipped a beat. Oh no, did he get hurt while climbing over the wall?
She got off the couch in a hurry and ran out of the palace without even putting on her embroidered shoes.
He ran all the way to Xuan Ling.
Seeing the bright red blood on his palm,
Sheng Xiyan held it carefully with both hands, tears already bursting out at that moment.
She choked and said, "Your Majesty, your hand is broken, does it hurt?"
Xuan Ling hugged her tightly.
He said in a deep voice: "It doesn't hurt, Yanyan, don't worry."
Sheng Xiyan whimpered, "How can it not hurt? I'm bleeding."
"My heart is broken,
My head is dizzy,
I can't explain it clearly anymore,
He is about to die.
Yanyan, what do you think we should do? "
With coquettishness and full of love, he was just a man who wanted to see his beloved woman.
"Xi Yan, please don't worry, the emperor is fine. Let me see your hands."
Sheng Xiyan took out a silk handkerchief, folded it and tied it to the bloodstain on Xuan Ling's palm while crying.
If tears were like pearls, they would never fall apart.
It was still crystal clear under the moonlight and flowed into Xuan Ling's heart.
At this moment, he could be sure that Sheng Xiyan's love for him was a romantic one, not a feeling of gratitude.
He held her in his arms again.
"Yan Yan, don't ignore me,
Don't push me away.
Your presence is in my heart,
Outperformed everyone.”
Sheng Xiyan wrapped her arms around his slender waist and held him tightly.
"Xuan Lang, is Xi Yan really that important to you?"
“Treasure it.”
Xuan Ling said "for", not "treat it as a treasure".
In my heart, Yanyan is a rare treasure.
The moonlight is hazy.
Beneath the high courtyard wall, Tan Lang and Xie Nu are a perfect match, as romantic as a painting.
Eunuch Fu was let in and cautiously reminded, "Your Majesty, please bandage the wound on your hand quickly."
Sheng Xiyan supported Xuan Ling, tears still hanging on her cheeks.
"Go in quickly."
As soon as she left, Xuan Ling saw that she was not wearing shoes and her white cloud stockings had been half-fallen off by running.
