At this moment, Emperor Tianwu hated that he couldn't slap himself twice. He had been pretending all this time, but was it all for the empress and her people? The people he really wanted to hide it from had been exposed by him. What should he do now?
Seeing him in a daze and seeing that Consort Yun's group had already walked out the door, Zhang Yuan also became anxious. He quickly poked Tianwu and reminded him in a small voice, "Your Majesty, Consort Yun might want to go back. Quickly chase after her!"
Only then did Tianwu react. He immediately ran out, shouting as he ran, "Pian Pian! Wait a moment and listen to zhen's explanation! "
Unfortunately, when he left the hall, he only saw the corner of Consort Yun's clothes.
Tianwu gritted his teeth. He didn't care about his image, nor did he care that he had just announced that he was unconscious. He ran out to chase after her.
Consort Yun was sitting in a soft chair carried by four people. The people carrying the sedan had qinggong, so their feet didn't touch the ground as they floated towards Winter Moon Palace.
When Tianwu was young, he was a tough man who had personally entered the battlefield. His martial arts were very good, but how could someone who fought on the battlefield compare to a Jianghu expert with qinggong? He thought that he was already running very fast, but he was still gradually left behind by the soft chair in front of him.
Tianwu didn't give up and wholeheartedly chased after her. Behind him, Zhang Yuan was also panting heavily as he followed from a distance. Feng Yu Heng stayed in Heavenly Hall and didn't go out. She had already helped as much as she could, so the rest would depend on Tianwu's luck. She walked towards the front hall to find Xuan Tianming while thinking in her heart that Consort Yun wouldn't blame her for helping Emperor Tianwu this time!
From Heavenly Hall to Winter Moon Palace, Tianwu chased for a full two incense sticks of time. Seeing Consort Yun's soft chair being carried through Winter Moon Palace's door, he gritted his teeth and charged towards the door that was about to close.
However, he was still a step behind.
The door was closed, trapping his sleeve. Just like this, the Emperor was awkwardly shut outside the door. He wanted to go in, but he could not, and he could not leave.
He tried to tug at his sleeve, but it didn't come out. Tianwu was amused, "Pian Pian, if you miss this zhen, just say it. It's not good to keep pulling on this zhen's sleeve. You're already so old, it's a joke.
There was no movement inside.
The Emperor was not discouraged and continued: "Pian Pian, We know that you have Us in your heart. Otherwise, you would not have gone to Heavenly Hall. We did lie to you, but it was for the sake of seeing you! It's a white lie. "
There was still no movement inside.
.. Zhen't't's's't's't't Pian Pian't '''t's right? In any case, I am the ruler of a country. It's not appropriate for me to just wait at the entrance. "
The Winter Moon Palace was completely silent. Only the sound of leaves rustling in the summer wind could be heard. There was no other sound at all.
At this time, Zhang Yuan also caught up, panting heavily. When he saw Tianwu's sorry state, he felt that it was a bit unfair. Thus, he also shouted towards the palace gates, "Consort Yun, His Majesty was indeed frightened today, but you arrived just in time for him to recover. Since this person was already at the entrance of the palace, he should at least invite him in for a cup of tea! Niang niang! Did you hear me? "
Tianwu heard that Zhang Yuan's shouts were not moving, and there was even a hint of resentment in them. He hurriedly pulled him back and scolded, "What are you shouting for?"
Zhang Yuan said angrily, "That's too much of a bully." As she spoke, she helped Tianwu tug at his sleeves. Unfortunately, the doors of the Winter Moon Palace were shut too tightly. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't pull it out.
Tianwu scolded him, "It's none of your business. I'm happy to be bullied, so what? "
Zhang Yuan said, "This servant was just afraid that you would suffer!"
Tianwu rolled his eyes and comforted himself, "If you want to eat, then eat. After so many years, I've already gotten used to it. That's right — — "He looked back and asked Zhang Yuan," Where's Heng Zheng? She didn't come with us? "
Zhang Yuan said, "Your Majesty! County Princess is calling you Imperial Father, but she also has to call Consort Yun Mother, right? She just helped you out, but you messed up your act. If you do it again, how will she explain it to Consort Yun in the future? "
Tianwu thought about it and found that this was reasonable. However, he really couldn't accept that he had messed up his act. He helplessly sighed and muttered to himself, "Is there really no way to remedy this?"
Zhang Yuan stomped his foot, "Your Majesty, now that things have reached this point, I'm afraid it's too late to remedy this. How about you be firm this time and this servant will protect you as we charge through this door! Isn't this just Winter Moon Palace? It's not like it's a dragon's lair or a tiger's den. It's already been in a deadlock for over ten years, so why can't we go in? "
Tianwu was so angry that his nose became crooked. Why didn't his damn eunuch grow a brain? If he wanted to go in, he would have done it over ten years ago. Why would he wait until today?
Before he could scold Zhang Yuan, at this time, he heard the sound of footsteps coming from all directions. It sounded like a large group of people were running around. Not long after, he saw groups of Imperial Guard moving around. It looked a bit chaotic.
Tianwu wiped his sweat and asked Zhang Yuan, "What's going on? Could it be that there's a coup? "
Zhang Yuan was helpless, "Your Majesty, can't you think of something better?"
So Tianwu changed his words, "Could it be that someone wants to steal the throne?"
Was there any difference?
Zhang Yuan took a few steps toward the small path and called for an Imperial Guard, asking: "What happened?"
The Imperial Guard immediately saw Tianwu's sleeve that was stuck in the palace gate. The corners of his mouth twitched, and he only replied after a long time: "Replying to your Majesty, Princess Ru Jia, who had been recovering in the palace, has disappeared. His Ninth Highness has ordered the entire palace to search for her."
"What?" Tianwu became furious, "Fuck, Qian Zhou really is courting death! Both men and women are courting death. If I don't teach them a lesson, it really won't do! " He ordered the soldier: "Quickly go search. Search carefully for Us. Even if you have to dig three feet into the ground, you must find her."
The soldier did not have any fear and replied: "Yes!" He then quickly ran off.
Tianwu was a little anxious and did not enter Winter Moon Palace. Waving to Zhang Yuan, he said: "Quickly! Borrow a knife from someone and cut off this sleeve. Let's quickly go back. "
Zhang Yuan said, "Are you trying to sever ties with me? Isn't that too unlucky? "
"Then what do you think should be done?"
"How about … you take off your outer robe!" Zhang Yuan gave him a suggestion, "Just treat it as leaving this robe for Consort Yun to remember. It's better than cutting it off."
Tianwu thought about it and felt that this was the case, thus he turned around and took off his outer robe.
"Go, go, go. Let's return to Heavenly Hall!" A certain emperor took the initiative to pull his eunuch back, but after taking just a few steps, he felt that something was a little off. He looked down. Huh? All that was left was a white cotton undergarment? How ugly was that? "That, let's go this way." He pulled Zhang Yuan to the side, and the two walked along a small path.
Just like this, they sneaked in the direction of Heavenly Hall. Zhang Yuan thought to himself, why are we acting like thieves? Who would have thought that just as he thought this, he heard a loud shout from the side — — "Who's there? Come out! "
Zhang Yuan thought to himself, it's over! This is going to be a big loss of face.
Following that, several spears were thrust into the thicket of flowers. This scared Zhang Yuan so much that he shouted: "How dare you!"
The Imperial Guards were originally searching for Ru Jia. When they found this place, they noticed that there was movement in the flowers on both sides of the path. Who would have thought that when they poked their spears, they would hear the voice of a eunuch.
Immediately after that, they saw the head eunuch Zhang Yuan, who was by the Emperor's side, standing up from the flowers with a head full of leaves and petals. Behind him, there was another man who was only wearing a white cotton undershirt standing up.
The Imperial Guards were a bit confused. It was dark at night, and Tianwu was hiding behind Zhang Yuan, so no one could tell who he was. They heard an Imperial Guard ask Zhang Yuan: "Why isn't eunuch taking care of His Majesty? Why are you hiding here?" When they looked behind them, they felt that something was off. This was the imperial harem, so how could a man come here? Could it be that he was also a eunuch? Why would a eunuch be dressed like that? Countless questions popped up in their minds. The soldier asked in confusion: "Who is the eunuch behind eunuch?"
"Bullshit!" When he heard that he was also treated as a eunuch, Tianwu immediately exploded. He cursed as he walked forward, raising his foot to kick the Imperial Guard.
The Imperial Guard reflexively dodged backwards, and at the same time, he stabbed forward with his spear. Tianwu was so angry that he pulled the spear into his chest with one hand. With a powerful thrust, the Imperial Guard was sent flying.
The soldiers finally realized that this wasn't a eunuch. This was clearly the emperor! Thus, they hurriedly knelt and begged for mercy. They heard the soldier who called Tianwu eunuch say: "This humble one really didn't know that His Majesty was here. Please spare me, His Majesty!"
Tianwu had always placed great importance on his face. Otherwise, he wouldn't have hidden in the bushes. Who knew that he would end up being caught as a thief? At this moment, his heart was on the verge of collapsing.
Tianwu felt that he had no face to see anyone, so he simply pulled Zhang Yuan in front of him, blocking him again.
Zhang Yuan also did not have any face, but as Tianwu's personal eunuch, he had to charge forward at a time like this. Thus he straightened his back and loudly said to the Imperial Guard in front of him: "His Majesty knows that Qian Zhou's princess has escaped and is preparing to personally bring her back. Don't cause a ruckus. Disperse. Disperse!"
The Imperial Guard cursed internally. Who was he trying to fool? Coming out in his underclothes to catch someone? Was he that addicted?
But they could only say this to themselves. He was the emperor. No matter what he wore or did, he would appear to be in the right. Thus the Imperial Guard heard Zhang Yuan's words and bid farewell to Tianwu before dispersing. The two of them then heard the imperial guards who had spread out shouting to another group of people who were heading towards them, "There's no need to check this side! His Majesty just came out of Winter Moon Palace and did not have a chance to put on his clothes. Don't go over and cause trouble. "
Zhang Yuan grabbed Tianwu's arm: "Your Majesty, calm down! We're all on the same side. You absolutely must not be rash! "
Tianwu was puzzled, "Why should We be rash?"
"They said …"
"They said that We just came out of Winter Moon Palace and did not have a chance to put on our clothes. Haha! Very good, this is very good! Making up a story for this great one to enjoy listening to is also quite good. Let's go back to Zhao He Hall. "
Zhao He Hall was a bedchamber. When Qian Zhou was causing trouble and the entire palace was searching for the escaped Ru Jia, Emperor Tianwu actually chose to return to his bedchamber to sleep!
Zhang Yuan's eyes were a little wet, and his nose was a little sore. He knew that Tianwu was running away. He had chosen to use a lie to deceive himself. He would rather live in this lie than accept the truth.
He turned back to look at Winter Moon Palace and felt that Consort Yun was truly too cruel. An emperor could do this much for an imperial concubine. What else could she want? She really was … willful!
At this time, in Winter Moon Palace, on a hot night, Imperial Concubine Yun sneezed while walking. She stopped and asked the palace maid to her side: "Say, could it be that the old man is cursing me behind my back?"
