Xu He came back to his senses, with a look of confusion in his eyes.

When I opened the door, there was an old eunuch with red lips and white face outside the door.

Although he faced a famous figure like Xu He and a national-level mirror, he was only humble and not flattering.

The status of eunuchs and palace maids in the palace is different from before.

Even those who do not have official positions are still from the court, and they always have some face when they go out.

The third-rank official in front of the prime minister's rank is even more conceivable.

Moreover, since the abolition of slavery, no new eunuchs were recruited in the palace, and these old eunuchs became more and more precious.

The emperor was also very polite to them. He once said that these people were the most loyal servants of the royal family.

If you work diligently for the royal family all your life, the royal family should repay them.

Although these people have no descendants, they will be raised by the court when they grow old.

Therefore, as long as you are not the kind of ambitions, you don’t need to bow down to anyone.

"Master Xu Gu, the Emperor summons you to the imperial study."

The old eunuch who had been traveling from Lin'an to Changsha and had been traveling with the royal family for more than ten years said to Xu He.

Xu He bowed to the old eunuch, "Please, father-in-law."

The old eunuch turned around and went downstairs to lead the way.

Xu He followed him out of the swordsman's pavilion in the slightest doubtful eyes of everyone, and evaporated the wine with his internal energy.

Then he quickly caught up with the old eunuch, "Dude, dare to ask..." Before he finished speaking, the old eunuch in front turned around and smiled and said, "Master of the Valley, our family is just passing messages, not the one who serves the emperor like Eunuch Liu."

Xu He was slightly stunned and stopped talking.

Follow the old eunuch to the outside of the imperial study.

The old eunuch stopped here and shouted to the imperial study room: "Your Majesty, bring it to Lord Xu Gu."

"Prince."

Eunuch Liu's voice came from inside.

The imperial guards opened the imperial study rooms, and the old eunuch stretched out his hand.

Xu He walked into the imperial study room.

First there is the main hall, then to the inner room.

The inner room is where Zhao Dongting stays.

The moment Xu He walked into the inner room, his eyes swept across the people inside the room, and then bowed to Zhao Dongting, "Xu He has seen the emperor in Hongye Valley, long live the emperor!"

Zhao Dongting was wearing a nightgown at this moment, and it seemed that he had not thought of summoning Xu He for a long time, but had a sudden idea.

In addition to him, there were two other people in the house, including Eunuch Liu and Jun Tianfang.

It is normal for Eunuch Liu to be with Zhao Dongting at all times.

Jun Tianfang is actually here, which is somewhat intriguing.

Now Jun Tianfang is responsible for teaching Zhao Ru to practice swordsmanship, which is equivalent to becoming Zhao Ru's nanny. Even at night, he slept in the same house with Zhao Ru.

"Let's flat!"

Zhao Dongting waved his hand at Xu He.

Xu He raised his head and saw Zhao Dongting staring at him.

The eyes were a little deep, which made him slightly doubtful.

Then he suddenly realized that although the emperor was young, he could not see through the emperor's mood at this moment.

Is it joy or anger? Although the eyes are clear, they are like an ancient well without waves, and there is no way to see anything.

Xu He had never seen Zhao Dongting before, but it seemed that Zhao Dongting's eyes were not as deep as that time.

It seems that the emperor is becoming more and more amazing.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Even if the emperor does not have amazing cultivation, just being a cunning man that should not have at this age is definitely not something that ordinary people can compare with.

Xu He didn't know why Zhao Dongting summoned him, and he couldn't see that Zhao Dongting was happy and angry, so he didn't speak, but just waited quietly for Zhao Dongting to speak.

It took about two minutes to pass.

These two minutes seemed short, but it made Xu He feel a little uneasy.

If it were a good thing, the emperor would have spoken long ago.

But now, he felt that the atmosphere in the room was a bit depressing.

"Lord Lord."

Just when he couldn't help but speak, Zhao Dongting spoke, "I came to the valley master late at night to disturb the valley master. Don't be surprised by the valley master..." Xu He hurriedly bowed, "The emperor has ruined Xu. It is Xu's honor to be summoned by the emperor."

"That's right, that's good."

Although Zhao Dongting said this, his tone seemed very plain.

This made Xu He's heart suddenly stumble, and there were a few bad premonitions coming out.

Sure enough, Zhao Dongting immediately said, "I heard that Master Qi went to Jianliu Pavilion to find Master Xu Gu, you?

Are you two old acquaintances?”

However, Xu He spoke easily because of this sentence.

It is certain that the emperor has a suspicion in the imperial city. If Qi Wulie goes to him, it is normal for the emperor to know about this matter.

He didn't think there was anything that could not be said, and said bluntly: "The emperor may not know that the owner of Qi is indeed related to the lower class.

Most of the old people in the world know this, especially those in the north.

The original wife of the owner of the village is the sister of the house, the real sister.

The young owner of the house is Qi Yue, who is the niece of his uncle."

"Oh..." Zhao Dongting nodded slightly, "Then is the owner of the village going to find Master Xu Gu to reminisce about the past?"

"no."

Xu He said: "I will not hide it from the emperor. Our Xu family and their Qi family have never had many contacts.

This time, the owner of the house Qi suddenly looked for him. For some reason, he just wanted me to take care of Qi Yue for him so that Qi Yue could hold the position of the owner of Zijing Villa so that he would not cause chaos in Zijing Villa.

Speaking of which, Master Qi seemed to be explaining his funeral, and he also said that he is now working for the emperor... He is brave enough to ask if there is something to do if Master Qi needs Master Qi to fight to the death?"

"The incident between Master Qi and Fairy Hongxia back then was indeed sighing..." Zhao Dongting did not answer Xu He's words, but suddenly sighed.

This made Xu He sweat even coldly.

It turned out that the emperor really knew about the past of their Red Leaf Valley and Zijing Villa. Fortunately, he did not choose to lie just now.

Otherwise, if you don’t talk about deceiving the emperor, Hongye Valley will definitely not get any trust from the emperor again.

Thinking deeper, Xu He felt more and more terrified of thinking.

He couldn't help but look at Jun Tianfang who was standing calmly with some concern.

The emperor let the sword immortal stand here, it wouldn't be... Although both are pseudo-extreme realms, he doesn't think he will be Jun Tianfang's opponent.

At this time, Zhao Dongting suddenly laughed and said, "Master Qi entrusted you with such a big deal to Master. I am looking for you now, but now I seem a little unkind."

Xu He didn't dare to really feel that Zhao Dongting was so happy at this moment, and said, "If the emperor has something to do, please let the emperor say it clearly.

I will die in a desperate situation.”

"really?"

Zhao Dongting said.

Xu He bowed again, "I will never go back on my word."

Zhao Dongting narrowed his eyes slightly, "Okay, you will stay in the palace from now on! What I may want you to do is the same as what the owner of the Qi Manor.

But if the owner of the village Qi dies, you probably won’t be alive. Are you sure you will never refuse to die?"

Xu He couldn't help but hesitate, but in the end he said: "I am a citizen of the Song Dynasty, and I should share my worries for the emperor."
