The eunuch hurriedly brought the pen over. He was afraid that if he was half a step too slow, the emperor would erupt in rage once more.
Xuanyuan Mo turned his hands behind his back, eyes filled with anger, and quickly said: "I am under the command of the heavens, the Emperor's edict. The border had not been very peaceful recently. In order for the crown prince to successfully inherit the throne, he sent his Battle-King to supervise the war at the border without delay. "Here it is."
The eunuch took notes as well. After he was done, he carefully asked the emperor, "Your majesty, when will you deliver the order?"
"At this moment, immediately send the message." Xuanyuan Mo turned and roared at the eunuch. Blue veins were already popping out from his forehead.
The eunuch was truly frightened by this roar. He was afraid that the emperor would be displeased and kill him.
The eunuch immediately knelt down and said, "Your servant obeys the decree."
"Father, wait a moment. The border is extremely dangerous. If my third brother goes there, then the odds are against us." The Crown Prince pretended to be considerate and tried to protect his younger brother's good brother.
After the Emperor heard what the crown prince said, the rage on his face dissipated by quite a bit.
Even if the Battle King was in a lot of trouble, at this very moment, the Crown Prince, regardless of his grudges with the Battle King, was still pleading for mercy for him.
His heart felt much better. He didn't feel so frustrated. What replaced it was a sense of accomplishment.
A smile appeared on his face. This was his good son.
His son was supposed to be like this, but at the same time he was worried about his brotherly feelings.
"This matter shall end just like this. Alright, you all are not allowed to bring it up again." Xuanyuan Mo's swift blade cut through the Crown Prince's brotherly feelings.
"Father." The Crown Prince continued to plead.
"Alright, I've made up my mind. There's no need to say anymore." Xuanyuan Mo said to the crown prince seriously.
The Crown Prince looked at Xuanyuan Mo with a serious face. It seemed that he had made a lot of decisions.
His face was filled with distress, but inside, he was secretly rejoicing.
"Battle-King, I want to see how you're going to play with me." The Crown Prince was secretly gloating.
Seeing that Xuanyuan Mo's expression became serious, the Yan Fei felt a cold shiver down his spine and pinched the crown prince hard in a place where he couldn't see.
The Crown Prince suddenly felt pain. Luckily, he was still able to bear the pain, so he didn't scream out loud.
"Your royal father told you not to say anything, you don't need to say anything." Yan Fei was afraid that Xuanyuan Mo would be angry, so he advised the crown prince.
In reality, she was only trying to persuade him. However, only she and the crown prince knew that her implied meaning was that they shouldn't continue acting. If they continued acting, that would be over.
The crown prince lowered his eyes, his face was filled with dejection.
"Crown Prince, you will become the ruler of a country in the future. You cannot be so emotional. If you continue to be like this, you will be even more severely injured. Father does not want you to be hurt by your own brothers.
royal father knows that you are a good child, but you can't always be this kind to people who hurt you. " Xuanyuan Mo said to the crown prince in disappointment.
Seeing Xuanyuan Mo's disappointed expression, the crown prince was panicking in his heart.
He hurriedly said: "I will remember, royal father, thank you for your concern." His expression was still a little dejected.
"Just remember it." Xuanyuan Mo placed his hands behind his back and furrowed his brows.
Seeing Xuanyuan Mo's expression, Yan Fei was afraid that the crown prince had overdone his part and started acting.
Walking beside Xuanyuan Mo, he cried as he said, "My son truly has a bitter life."
Xuanyuan Mo's wrinkled brows did not relax as he hugged Yan Fei and said: "Alright, alright." Yan Fei's petite hand started to get anxious as Xuanyuan Mo gently pushed her away.
He said calmly, "Now that the crown prince is injured, I will allow you to take care of him. I still have matters to attend to, so I will be leaving first."
Yan Fei wanted to keep the Emperor, but she knew in her heart that now was not the time.
Yan Fei took off her handkerchief and started wiping her tears.
Although she was already forty years old, there was not the slightest hint of age on her face. He exuded the aura of a mature woman.
As he wiped, he said, "Take care, Your Majesty."
As the emperor watched, his wrinkled brow relaxed. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and immediately left without turning back.
"Your majesty, where are we going?" the chief eunuch asked cautiously.
"The lotus pond in the imperial garden." The Emperor spoke his mind as if it were made of gold.
"Set up the Imperial Garden's Lotus Pond." the leader of the eunuchs shouted, stopping to wave his whisk.
The clear voice reached every guard's ears. They all made way for the emperor to leave, and they all went in the same direction.
Battle King Manor.
After Xuanyuan Zhan received the emperor's order, he received the secret message first and thought of a plan.
The two guards at the entrance of the Battle King Manor stood as upright as cypresses and pines. The arrival of one person broke the silence that was supposed to exist.
"Quickly send the Battle-King out to receive the decree. I have an urgent message to convey. "
The eunuchs were afraid that they would ignore the emperor's words.
"Who are you?" The guard pointed at the eunuch seriously.
"Dog slave, the Emperor has decreed that I am an eunuch who has come to deliver the decree. Don't be too presumptuous, quickly send the Battle King to handle the decree. If we delay the transfer of your fingers, you will not be able to bear the consequences. "
Even if the eunuchs felt the oppression of this atmosphere, they were still part of a meeting held at the lowest level of the imperial palace.
The eunuch was sweating profusely. It was fortunate that the person in front of him was not the Battle King. He was just a mere bodyguard and yet he had such an imposing aura. If he was the Battle King, he probably wouldn't be able to stand.
The two guards looked at each other, and one of them went in to report.
The eunuch looked at the two guards. He was also very anxious. This was an order from the emperor when he was angry, how could he overlook it so easily?
Eunuch was very afraid that because of his own reasons, he would not be able to see the Battle King and his orders would not be given away, so he reckoned that he would not be able to escape his death sentence. As he thought of this, he immediately took out his identity token and cleared his throat. The guard's gaze was now fixed on him.
He waved his identity token in front of the guard's eyes. The main reason was to confirm his identity. The two of them had no doubt that he would be able to see the Battle King. This was the fastest way to solve the problem.
The guard looked at his badge and immediately said, "Eunuch, please wait for a moment. I will go and report now."
After receiving the guard's gaze, the eunuch finally agreed to his request for the Battle King.
"The eunuch came all the way here," said the guard. "He was rude only because the King of War has ordered us to guard the gates of the palace. Please do not blame him."
Eunuch might have been in the palace for a long time, and now the guard's words were tactfully indicating that he was being negligent, but the eunuch actually misunderstood his meaning, thinking that the guard was showing weakness by lowering his head.
With a face full of pride, he said, "Those who don't know don't blame them."
The guard on the right immediately said: "Eunuch, the way in Battle King Manor is different from the usual palace. I will first bring you into the hall, then inform the Battle-King and come forward to receive your orders."
The eunuch began to make a show of saying: "Well, as you say, but I want to cut a pot of the best jasmine spring." As he spoke, he raised his orchid fingers and played with them.
The guard replied coldly, "Yes, Eunuch. Please go this way."
The eunuch walked in swaggering. When he passed through the gate, the guard only saw his nostrils.
The proud eunuch might have already forgotten that he was entering the Battle King Manor.
"Eunuch, I will lead you to the hall first, then I will cut you a pot of the best Jade-green Spring. Sit down, I will immediately go find the Battle-King." The guard spoke.
"Alright." The eunuch felt a great satisfaction in his vanity.
The two of them walked on, one in front and the other behind. In order to play with this arrogant eunuch, the guard had to lead him to almost half of the palace before he arrived at the main hall of the palace.
"Eunuch, what do you think of our Battle King Manor? Not bad right … …" He began to introduce the scenery of the manor.
The eunuch walked for a long time, but he did not reach the main hall. He could not help but feel a little anxious. The guard beside him was still talking nonsense. He could not help but feel irritated.
"How long until we get there?" The eunuch said anxiously.
"Don't worry, we'll be there soon." The guard explained.
As the guard walked, he said, "Eunuch, what will you do by coming here?"
"This is an imperial edict. You can't say it out loud so easily. You must wait until the prince is present before you say it out loud." The eunuch spoke seriously.
