Chapter 51
"Master?" Lin Ziyi looked at herself and her husband with some confusion.
"It's alright, I'll just go to the palace." Wei Jing'an patted Lin Ziyi lightly, then stood up and walked out.
Watching his father leave, Wei Herui breathed a sigh of relief.
His dad is terrifying.
"Mother, I really know I was wrong," Wei Herui said to Lin Ziyi in his usual coquettish manner.
"Hmph, you can kneel here until your father comes back!" Thinking of how her son had embarrassed her today, Lin Ziyi felt that this unfilial son still needed to be properly disciplined by her husband.
Otherwise, if your husband loses face today, you might be the one to lose face next time.
He said it was one thing for her husband to run three laps around the capital naked, but if he were to say that he himself...
I'm afraid I won't have the face to live in this world anymore.
Thinking of this, Lin Ziyi left without looking up.
Wei Jing'an entered the palace with trepidation. All the way, he wondered what the Emperor wanted to do that required bypassing his father and seeking him out.
He also tried hard to recall if he had done anything wrong recently.
However, the royal family had not held any sacrificial ceremonies recently, and he really couldn't figure out where he had gone wrong.
Moreover, I haven't heard from the Imperial Observatory that there are any sacrificial rites to be performed recently.
"Your humble servant greets Your Majesty! May Your Majesty enjoy boundless blessings and peace!" Wei Jing'an stood below Zhu Jingchen and bowed to him with great trepidation.
"Minister Wei, you may rise!" Zhu Jingchen said with a smile as he looked Wei Jing'an up and down.
Grand Tutor Wei was already quite handsome, and Wei Jing'an bore a resemblance to him. It's just unknown what kind of appearance he would have if he took off his outer garments.
He recalled Wei Jing'an and Xu Heming performing a wood-carrying act for him and the other concubines at the Imperial Garden.
For some reason, Zhu Jingchen felt that these things shouldn't be seen by his harem.
But he can't enjoy this all by himself, can he?
Thinking about this, Zhu Jingchen felt conflicted.
"I wonder if Your Majesty has summoned me to the palace for some important matter?" Wei Jing'an asked cautiously, looking at the Emperor who had remained silent for a long time.
However, Zhu Jingchen was too focused on his thoughts and didn't hear Wei Jing'an's words.
"Your Majesty?" Eunuch Liu cautiously reminded him from the side.
Zhu Jingchen, however, rested his chin on his hand, looking in Wei Jing'an's direction, sometimes frowning, sometimes smiling.
This made Wei Jing'an very uneasy.
I wonder why the Emperor summoned me?
In particular, the way the emperor looked at him always gave him a bad feeling.
"Your Majesty?" Eunuch Liu called out again.
"Oh, what's wrong?" Zhu Jingchen coughed lightly and asked, feigning ignorance.
"Your Majesty, Lord Wei is asking you why he was allowed to enter the palace?" Eunuch Liu whispered a reminder.
"Ahem! I've heard that Lord Wei is a man of great learning and talent." Zhu Jingchen said, glancing at Wei Jing'an.
