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 was facing 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 people 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. Since the abolition of slavery, new eunuchs have stopped recruiting in the palace, and these old eunuchs have become 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. He worked diligently for the royal family all his life, and the royal family should repay them.

Although these people have no descendants, they will be raised by the court when they get old. Therefore, as long as they are not the kind of ambitions themselves, they do not need to bow 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 sword-flowing pavilion in the slightly confused eyes of everyone, and evaporated the alcohol with his internal energy. Then he quickly caught up with the old eunuch, "Dear father-in-law, dare to ask..."

Before he finished speaking, the old eunuch in front of him 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 room, and the old eunuch stretched out his hand. Xu He walked into the imperial study room.

First there is the main hall, then 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. Eunuch Liu was always with Zhao Dongting, which is normal. Jun Tianfang was also there, 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. His eyes were a little deep, which made him slightly suspicious.

Then he suddenly realized that although the emperor was young, he could not see through the emperor's mood at this moment. He was happy or angry. Although his eyes were clear, they were like an ancient well without waves and could not 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? 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 indescribable and said bluntly: "The emperor may not know anything. The owner of Qi does have some relationship with the lower house. Most of the old people in the rivers and lakes know this, especially the people of the north. The original wife of the owner of Qi was the elder sister of the lower house, and the elder sister. Now the young owner of the lower house is Qi Yue, who is the elder brother of the lower house."

"oh……"

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

"no."

Xu He said: "To be honest with the emperor, our Xu family and their Qi family have never had much contact. This time, the owner of 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, the owner of 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 the emperor if there is something to do, and he needs to work hard for the owner of Qi?"

"The incident between Master Qi and Fairy Hongxia back then was indeed sighing..."

However, 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 he had deceived the emperor, Hongye Valley would definitely not get the emperor's trust in the future. Thinking deeper, Xu He felt more and more terrifying to think about it.

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 repeatedly: "If the emperor has something to do, please let the emperor say it clearly. I will die."

"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 Master Qi Manor does. But if Master Qi dies, you may not be able to live. Are you sure you will never refuse me?"
