Chapter 1169: Venting anger
Chu Yan only heard a chaotic cry, and a hazy face appeared in front of his eyes. He reached out to touch her, raised it high, but didn’t touch anything. His hand dropped heavily, falling into endless darkness.
When he woke up again, he found himself lying on the familiar dragon bed, everything was so familiar.
Could it be that all of that was a dream?
Bai Zhi didn’t want to be separated from him, it was just a dream he had.
He has never been to Qiyun Mountain?
If it was really a dream, then this dream was too realistic.
He lifted the quilt out of bed, and the palace maid at the side hurried forward to put on boots for him.
He waved: “Everyone back down.”
He still couldn’t get used to having people wait and dress him. After years of military life, it already become a habit.
Just like he was used to looking at the portrait of Bai Zhi after getting up every day.
But today, he didn’t find that small painting on the imperial case.
“Where is Eunuch Fu?” Chu Yan asked the palace maid serving at the side with anger.
The palace maid immediately knelt down: “Answering back the emperor, Eunuch Fu is watching the decoction.”
While talking, a person came in from the outside, it was Eunuch Fu who was carrying a tray.
Chu Yan pointed to the imperial table and asked, “Eunuch Fu, where is the little painting I look at every day?”
Eunuch Fu’s heart trembled, the hand holding the soup shook slightly, and the medicine almost spilled out.
He hurriedly put down the medicine, and knelt down in front of the emperor, “Go back to the emperor, the little painting was confiscated by the supreme emperor.”
Chu Yan frowned, with a displeased expression on his face: “What? Why did he take this painting away? Why did he come here?” Ever since he ascended the throne, his father never came to this imperial study, let alone asked about his personal affairs.
Eunuch Fu said fairly: “Your majesty, since you were sick and returned to the palace, the Supreme Emperor has been visiting every day. He happened to find the small painting on the imperial table, so, then——”
In fact, it was not confiscated but burned by the Supreme Emperor.
Not even ash was left.
He can understand the mood of the Supreme Emperor very well. A good son, a majestic king of a country, actually became half-dead like this several times for a woman. It really pissed him off.
He was full of resentment, and he couldn’t vent it on the emperor, and he couldn’t kill people from Qi Yunshan. After all, she was Dongfang Mu’s granddaughter, so he should give her some face.
So he can only take this small painting to vent his anger.
Chu Yan didn’t ask any more questions, a sentence kept echoing in his ears, returning to the palace sick, returning to the palace sick?
Did he leave the palace? Where did he go? Qi Yunshan?
So, it wasn’t a dream?
He reached out and lifted Eunuch Fu from the ground, and asked anxiously, “Did I go to Qiyun Mountain?”
Eunuch Fu nodded with surprise on his face: “Yes, your majesty, don’t you remember?”
As soon as his hand was loosened, Eunuch Fu almost fell down, so he quickly stabilized his figure and took two steps back.
“Where is Bai Zhi?” He stared at Eunuch Fu and asked.
Eunuch Fu hurriedly said: “Answering back the emperor, Miss Bai sent you back and left.”
“Where did she go?” Chu Yan asked anxiously.
Eunuch Fu lowered his head, feeling extremely entangled in his heart, should he say it, or not?
The Supreme Emperor had ordered that he was not allowed to speak, but facing the furious Emperor, if he did not speak, what would be the consequences?
“Hurry up and say it!” Chu Yan roared angrily, causing all the palace people in the palace to kneel down in fright.
Eunuch Fu tremblingly said: “Your Majesty, I don’t know where Miss Bai has gone, but Miss Bai left you a letter.”
Chu Yan stretched out his hand to him: “A letter, bring it quickly.” He was very uneasy. Since she had already sent him back to the palace, why did she leave again?
