On the other side, a figure was huddled in the corner in front of the gate of Prince Xuan's Mansion, his eyes fixed on the door, afraid of missing anything.

The guards in front of the door looked at him with some sympathy. They had to change shifts at a certain time, but that man was more pitiful, as he had to guard from dawn to dusk.

This person is Xiao Shunzi in the palace.

Ever since that day when the emperor did not wait for anyone at the city gate, although he did not get angry, he was somewhat displeased with everyone.

Eunuch Gao had no choice but to send people to guard Prince Xuan’s mansion.

He was not sure about others, but now such a good thing happened to Xiao Shunzi.

Xiao Shunzi once again sniffed the snot that was about to flow out, and he was almost dizzy. Looking in the direction of the gate, he felt like he was about to become a husband-waiting stone.

"My Lord, if you don't come back, my life will be at stake!"

Xiao Shunzi couldn't help but sigh.

Perhaps God heard his call, and at this moment a seemingly ordinary carriage slowly drove over.

Xiao Shunzi just took a casual glance and then looked away, because the carriage was too ordinary and did not suit the status of a prince!

But soon he opened his eyes wide in shock. Why did the man driving the carriage look a little familiar?

God!

Is that Lord Shadow?

Who else can let Lord Shadow drive the carriage himself?

Regent!

Xiao Shunzi couldn't believe it, this happiness came too quickly!

At this moment, he didn't even dare to blink, for fear that he had seen it wrong.

When the figure he had been longing for appeared before him, he was so excited that he almost cried.

Si Xuan had just got off the carriage and had not yet taken a step when a figure in the distance came running towards him quickly. Anying was startled and thought it was an assassin, so he quickly blocked the figure.

I was still thinking, are these assassins so bold now?

It would have been fine if he had committed the crime in broad daylight, but he chose to do it in front of the gate of Prince Xuan's palace.

It's really impressive!

"My Lord, you are finally back?"

Xiao Shunzi fell to his knees with a thud, smiling widely with tears in his eyes.

Shadow silently put back the sword that was about to be unsheathed, but he was really shocked to see the appearance of the person who came. Could something big have happened and he didn't receive any news?

Did it just happen today?

Seeing him crying like this, could something have happened to the emperor?

Emperor: You are the one who is surprised! I am alive and well!

"What's the matter?"

Si Xuan frowned unhappily, and his good mood disappeared in an instant.

Xiao Shunzi was so happy at this time that he was dizzy. He felt that the Regent's voice was like the sound of nature. How could he hear the unhappiness in his voice? He recounted everything that had happened in the past few days in a burst of rapidity.

"Your Highness, I will go back to the palace and tell the Emperor the good news. I will not disturb you any further."

Fortunately, he still knows what he should do.

Si Xuan quickly waved his hands, what a noisy guy!

"Master, the Emperor truly loves you deeply!"

Looking at the figure stumbling away, Shadow couldn't help but sigh, wondering if the emperor didn't care so much about his own wife!

"You have nothing to do? Then clean the toilet in the mansion!"

After saying this, the man walked into the house without looking back.

"Master, I know I was wrong!"

Shadow was stunned for a moment, then quickly chased after him, and couldn't help but slap himself in the face. He really didn't know why he was so mean just now. It was because of An Qi that he was taught badly to say anything!

An Qi: It’s none of my business!

imperial study room

The emperor was sitting alone in the room. He hadn't turned the page of the book in his hand for a long time. His eyes were fixed on the book, and his thoughts were drifting to who knows where.

Eunuch Gao was very tactful and withdrew. At this time, he would rather stand outside in the cold than be an eyesore inside.

The emperor has been like this every day these days, distraught and heartbroken. If you don’t know, you would think that his wife has run away!

They find all kinds of faults. When eating, the food is either too salty or too bland, too raw or too rotten. Even when drinking tea, they either complain it's too cold or too hot.

It was difficult to sleep. Sometimes I complained that the bed was too hard, and sometimes I complained that it was too soft.

The ministers in the morning court were even more pitiful. It was wrong for them to speak, and it was wrong for them to remain silent.

They simply lowered their heads and let the emperor scold them, and then went out in an orderly manner to run and exercise.

In short, the current emperor is dissatisfied with everything he sees. In one word, he is dissatisfied with everything.

The one who suffered the most, of course, was the chief steward, who had to follow and serve every day.

Eunuch Gao felt that if he continued like this, his life would be over. No matter what others did, he didn't want to live anymore. It was too depressing!

"Master, Master~"

Xiao Shunzi, who was not far away, was running and shouting, and Eunuch Gao finally came to his senses.

"Why are you back, you bastard?"

"Ah... Master... Master..."

Xiao Shunzi was breathing heavily, which made Eunuch Gao very anxious. He didn't know if it was what he thought, but the person in front of him couldn't even utter a complete sentence.

"Why don't you speak quickly?"

"Master, the king...the...the prince is back!"

Xiao Shunzi propped himself up and finally finished speaking in one breath, then continued to prop himself up and gasped for breath.

Eunuch Gao instantly felt like he was alive again, he pushed open the door and walked in.

"emperor,"

But before he could finish his words, the emperor angrily threw the book in his hand on the table with a "bang", and his eyes were glaring at the culprit who interrupted his thoughts as if he was spitting fire.

He was just thinking about his childhood with his ninth brother when he was interrupted by the bang of the door opening. How could he not be angry?

"Goldman, do you still want to clean the toilet?"

Eunuch Gao: I really want to go, but it’s you who can’t leave me and insists on letting me come back, right?

"Your Majesty, please calm down. I know my crime."

Forget it. I am a magnanimous person and I won’t argue with the emperor.

"Are you too old to do anything? Do you want me to replace you with someone else?"

But the emperor still refused to give in.

Eunuch Gao: Please change someone as soon as possible, I would love to have you!

"It's all my fault. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

However, as a qualified general manager, you should admit your mistake quickly and ask for the emperor's forgiveness at this time. No matter whether it is your fault or not, if the emperor loses his temper, then you have done something wrong.

The emperor saw that he had a good attitude. After all, he had served him for decades. It seemed as if he had a change of heart and he didn't bother with him anymore.

"What's the matter? Tell me."

Eunuch Gao: I don’t want to talk about it yet!

But after thinking about it and thinking that I would have a better life in the future, I gave up the idea.

"Your Majesty, the Regent has returned."
