Chapter 57

Only Xiao Yan and Chu Huang were left in the tent.

"emperor."

The Emperor of Chu measured Xiao Yan, dressed in a dark black robe, with sword-like brows and star-eyed eyes, imposing manner.

He usually only noticed Xiao Yan's talent, but today he took a closer look, and it was indeed very good-looking.

He said: "Xiao Yan, do you know what I kept you here to talk to you?"

With a calm expression, Xiao Yan bowed and said, "I should be punished for leaving the paddock without authorization."

"Punishment? I don't intend to punish you."

Emperor Chu looked like an old god, which was unpredictable.

"But it's about assassins?"

"Not at all."

"That is……"

The Emperor of Chu has always attached great importance to Xiao Yan, and at a young age, he made him the Taifu to tutor the four princesses.

But among the four princesses, he has the best relationship with the little emperor Ji Mengqing, and he is very ordinary to the other princesses.

"Xiao Yan, among my many daughters, can you tell me why you take care of Qingqing so much?"

"The minister treats all the princesses equally."

As soon as the words fell, the Emperor Chu smiled, "You're lying! If the other princesses were in such a catastrophe, would you still be so desperate to save them?"

Xiao Yan was stumped by this question.

Yes, if it was other princesses, maybe he wouldn't be desperate to save them.

But why...Meng Qing is different?
He never figured it out.

Xiao Yan remained silent.

Chu Huang continued: "Don't take me for a fool, you know better than me what kind of person I am."

It seems that he really treats Meng Qing differently, not because she is his pawn, nor because she is his student...

Could it be that he... fell in love with Meng Qing?
Xiao Yan became more and more confused about his own heart.

"Among my many daughters, Qingqing is the one I love the most. After going through so many things, I can see that you are sincere to Qingqing, and Qingqing also means something to you. So I decided to personally marry you two."

Xiao Yan panicked, "Your Majesty, this is inappropriate."

"What's wrong?"

"After all, I am the teacher of His Royal Highness Little Diji, so it doesn't make sense."

Emperor Chu stroked his beard and smiled, "Then you and her are still monarchs and ministers, what's wrong with that, it's decided like this!"

"emperor……"

"Go on, I will personally inform Qingqing someday."

Xiao Yan was at a loss for words, so he could only salute silently and exit the tent.

……

Silent night.

Meng Qing had just returned from Gu Qingyun's place, and as soon as she entered the tent, she saw Xie Yunzhi lying on her couch, sound asleep.

She hooked her lips and stepped forward to pull him up.

"Yunzhi, get up."

Xie Yunzhi was sleeping soundly, but was woken up by Meng Qing, and he was in a daze.

"Sister... you're back..."

He rubbed his eyes, bleary-eyed.

"Yeah, I'm back, do you know that I've been missing for many days, you still have the face to sleep here, don't you worry about me?"

Xie Yunzhi grinned, and said, "Didn't Mrs. Xiao go to look for you? With Mrs. Xiao here, my sister will surely turn the danger into a blessing!"

Meng Qing heard something was wrong, "How do you know that Xiao Yan went to look for me?"

Xie Yunzhi choked.

It's over, she can't let her know about their relationship.

"I heard that with so many people and so many mouths, it's not like Yunzhi doesn't have ears."

Meng Qing stared at him dubiously, "It's quite clever."

"That's right, how can I not learn to be clever in the harem!"

"Whether you're clever or not, follow me to Xiao Yan's camp now, and you go hide with him."

"what……"

"Walk."

After finishing speaking, Meng Qing dragged Xie Yunzhi to Xiao Yan's place.

The moonlight halos, and the starlight is sparse.

The lights in the tent are dim and dim, and a faint fragrance of orchids is burning in the hollow triangular furnace in the corner of the desk.

Xiao Yan sat on his knees at the banquet, reading scriptures and drinking tea.

Ben was very comfortable, and a "Teacher" came from outside the tent.

It's true that the voice comes first before the people arrive.

Meng Qing opened the tent and came in, with a small follower behind him - Xie Yunzhi.

Xiao Yan put down the scriptures, his eyes were irritable.

He was also dressed as male or female. If the king of Changjun saw it, he would have to vomit blood in anger.

The little girl sat down opposite him in two or three moves, becoming more and more unruly.

He was about to salute but she stopped him.

"Teacher, I need your help with something!"

She smiled brightly, making Xiao Yan embarrassed to refuse.

"Your Highness, please speak."

Meng Qing pointed to Xie Yunzhi, "He! He was originally staying in my palace, but somehow he came to the paddock. I wanted to keep her, but all the maids in my account have their names recorded, so I would like to ask the Taifu to help him stay here with you!"

Xiao Yan sipped his tea, "If you put it here, you won't be discovered?"

"You are a courtier. What's the point of bringing two bookboys and a few maidservants? Even if you ask at that time, just say she is your concubine."

"Cough cough..."

Xiao Yan miraculously choked on drinking tea.

Xie Yunzhi and Xiao Yan even looked at each other, slightly embarrassed.

Seeing that Xiao Yan was silent, Meng Qing tugged at the corner of his clothes.

"Okay, ma'am!"

Xiao Yan couldn't help her, so he could only agree, "Yes, but he must be disciplined by the minister."

His phoenix eyes stared at Xie Yunzhi fiercely like eagle eyes.

"Naturally!"

"However, for fear of being misunderstood, he pretended to be a bookboy and replaced Yushu's name."

"I knew Taifu was the best!"

Xie Yunzhi squinted at her, with a strange expression, "I knew that Tai Tuo is the best!"

Meng Qing's expression changed dramatically.

"Teach me what to do?"

Xie Yunzhi was like learning from a parrot, "Why do you want to learn from me?"

"..."

Meng Qing was speechless.

Xiao Yan put the teacup on the table, "Shut up."

Relying on Xiao Yan's backing, Meng Qing also became arrogant, "Did you hear that, the Taifu told you to shut up! Yun Zhi, if you don't obey me, maybe I won't be able to beat you, but he will definitely beat you up."

"I will definitely beat you!"

Xie Yunzhi imitated her again.

"Children."

"Children!"

"..."

Meng Qing didn't bother to talk to him anymore, she lay down on the desk and continued talking to Xiao Yan.

"Teacher, did the emperor punish you today?"

Holding her chubby face in her hands, she asked obediently.

Xiao Yan shook his head, "No."

Seeing them talking, Xie Yunzhi felt very bored, yawned and ran to the side bed to lie down.

"Oh……"

Oh?
She really wanted him to be punished?
Xiao Yan's expression was subtle.

He stared at her, "Are you worried about the minister, or are you hoping that the minister will be punished?"

"What are you talking about, I'm naturally worried about you!"

She said it subconsciously, but she didn't know that Xiao Yan's heart had already blossomed with joy.

"is it?"

Meng Qing was noncommittal, but she began to wonder what her father had said to him.

When she spoke, she babbled like an oriole, "Teacher, what did my father tell you?"

so want to know.

Xiao Yan looked at her, pinched the girl's smooth chin with his slender palm, and said in a deep voice, "He said, he wants to marry you and me."
