no double fate

Li Zhanyue thought that the emperor was just casually saying that he wanted to see Han Shuang, the Ninth Five-Year Lord had so many things to do, how could he have the time to come and see an unknown person?Unexpectedly, just a few days after this incident, when Xiu Mu happened, the emperor ordered someone to spread the word that he was going to visit the general's mansion.

Li Zhanyue didn't think there was anything wrong, the new emperor and his courtiers had a harmonious relationship, and when they had nothing to do, they would sit in the homes of the courtiers who valued them, chatting and enhancing the friendship between the monarch and his ministers.

But this news fell to Han Shuang's ears, but it was not the same thing.

"Your Majesty is coming?" Han Shuang heard her voice trembling with fear.Li Zhanyue thought that Hanshuang was nervous, so he smiled and said: "Don't be afraid, Your Majesty is very nice. Last time he said he wanted to see who can teach me to read, but he really came here, hehe."

Han Shuang's face turned pale, his lips moved, but he couldn't speak.

The current emperor is the former King Duan, whose surname is Pei Yanqing. Since he came to power, the government has been well-organized and the people are harmonious. Naturally, no one mentions the events of the past. Maybe many years later, the history books will use the phrase "lewdness to confuse it".Li Zhanyue only knew the Mingjun after he ascended the throne. For Hanshuang, he only remembered the demon back then!

The emperor arrived around noon, the main gate of the General's Mansion was wide open, Li Zhanyue came to pick him up, he wanted to call Han Shuang, but Han Shuang said that he had no identity and it was inconvenient to go out, so he didn't go with him.

When Pei Yanqing stepped into the gate, he noticed that the layout of the front yard had changed. He took a second look and said with a smile, "Li Qing, this yard is much better than before. A new gardener has been hired?"

Li Zhanyue immediately said proudly: "No! The garden was re-arranged by my little husband!"

"Oh, your little gentleman has a good eye." Pei Yanqing nodded, "Then I won't go to the main hall, you can take me to sit in the garden."

When the two arrived at the garden, Pei Yanqing walked around the garden with great interest. The refurbished garden was more vibrant than before. The flowers and plants were well arranged, echoing the rockery pavilion, bright but not kitsch.A person's temperament can be seen from his preferences. For a rough person like Li Zhanyue, he does everything in a big way. The exquisite elegance in front of him is not something he can arrange.After seeing the garden, Pei Yanqing also had a little more affection for the "Little Mister" who hadn't met yet.

After sitting down and calling the servants to serve tea, Pei Yanqing took a sip, looked left and right, and said, "Li Qing, did you study hard today, Xiu Mu?"

Li Zhanyue said: "Return to Your Majesty, I have to study hard. In the morning, Mr. Xiao gave me two articles, and Mr. Xiao said that I will arrange calligraphy practice for me in the afternoon."

"Oh? What did your little gentleman teach you today, recite it to me."

"Ah? Your Majesty, I haven't recited what I taught you today... Is it okay for me to recite what I taught you yesterday?"

Li Zhanyue looked at the emperor eagerly, Pei Yanqing smiled, yes.Li Zhanyue recited the article he learned yesterday, a little bit stuttering, but finally he was right.Pei Yanqing asked him the meaning of the article again, and Li Zhanyue explained it in plain language, but it was not ambiguous at all.

Pei Yanqing nodded and said: "Well, yes, your husband is a good teacher, explaining profound things in simple terms, and getting the true meaning of a sage."

Li Zhanyue grinned, proud of his little teacher.

Pei Yanqing smiled, and finally got to the point: "You said that the person you like is you, Mr.?"

"Exactly!" Li Zhanyue nodded again and again, carefully peeking at the emperor's face, seeing that the other party didn't seem to be angry, and struck while the iron was hot, "Your Majesty, although my little gentleman is not a woman, he is ten thousand times better than a woman, please help me. "

"Since you have said your husband so well, then call him out and let me see if it's okay, whether it's perfect or not, that's another story."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I will send someone to call now!"

The two monarchs and ministers said some other things, and after a while, someone from the messenger came.

From a distance, I saw a thin and thin man walking slowly with his head down. He was dressed in Tsing Yi, elegant and clean.The man stopped outside the gazebo, knelt down on the steps, kowtowed and said: "Caomin Li Hanshuang sees Your Majesty."

Pei Yanqing saw that this little gentleman was so courteous, he felt a bit higher in his heart, raised his palm slightly, and said with a smile: "Excuse me. Sit down beside Zhan Yue."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The young man sat down on the seat next to Li Zhanyue, his buttocks only touched the edge of the chair, his back was straight, but his head was lowered, as if he was afraid of the might of the dragon, and he looked very humble.

Pei Yanqing couldn't see the whole picture of the other party clearly, so after thinking about it, he said, "Your name is Li Hanshuang?"

Han Shuang replied: "Yes."

"Both Zhan Yue and Zhan Yue are from Li Family Village?"

"Yes."

"I heard him call you 'Little Mister', you taught him to read?" Pei Yanqing asked, Han Shuang was about to answer, but Pei Yanqing suddenly said: "You raise your head, don't lower your head and talk like this, I'm so scary ?"

"Grassman...yes."

Han Shuang responded softly, her small Adam's apple moved up and down, obviously very frightened.Pei Yanqing could see clearly, and even stared at the other party, waiting for Han Shuang to slowly raise his head.

Pei Yanqing saw Hanshuang's appearance clearly, it seemed that he had a face as big as a palm, and his almond eyes seemed to be misty and watery, with a bit of coquettish charm.

Han Shuang replied: "The general said he wanted to read some books, and Caomin just happened to know some characters, so I taught him to read some simple chapters. Because the age difference is not much, the general called Caomin 'Little Mister'."

Pei Yanqing didn't seem to recognize him, nodded slightly, and praised: "Recently, Zhan Yue has made great progress. He knows the words of the sage, and the words are also beautiful. You teach well."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Han Shuang lowered her head again, her fingers tightened her clothes, not daring to relax.

Pei Yanqing turned his head and asked Li Zhanyue: "Li Qing, did you learn it just because Mr. Hanshuang taught you?"

Li Zhanyue nodded hurriedly.

Pei Yanqing smiled slightly, and said: "Then I will find an old gentleman for your little gentleman, teach him, and then let him teach you?"

Han Shuang was taken aback, couldn't help but looked up, and looked at Li Zhanyue at a loss.

Li Zhanyue knew that the emperor was determined to ask him to learn something, and it would be better to let Hanshuang teach him than those rigid old masters. He grinned, lifted his robe and knelt down on the ground: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Get up. Let Hanshuang enter the palace tomorrow, and I will find him a husband."

After the matter was settled, Pei Yanqing changed the subject and chatted with Li Zhanyue about the court affairs.Hanshuang left in a hurry under the pretext of going to the kitchen to supervise lunch. Although Pei Yanqing didn't seem to recognize him right now, he didn't dare to stay longer. Afterwards, Pei Yanqing stayed for dinner, but Hanshuang didn't accompany him.

After Pei Yanqing left, Li Zhanyue happily returned to the backyard. Seeing Han Shuang sitting there, he thought he hadn't recovered from the shock of meeting the emperor—well, Li Zhanyue himself was so stupid in front of the emperor back then. In a daze, Hanshuang's performance is much better than him.

Li Zhanyue hugged him into his arms and arched his neck, and said with a smile, "Han Shuang, you're back!"

Han Shuang was stunned for a moment, then pulled out a forced smile, and called weakly: "Zhan Yue..."

Li Zhanyue jokingly said: "Although Your Majesty is very handsome, I forbid you to think about him!"

"How come..." Han Shuang laughed softly, which was uglier than crying.

"Han Shuang, what's wrong with you? You're out of your mind." Only then did Li Zhanyue feel that Han Shuang's reaction was a little weird, "Could it be that he was afraid of entering the palace?" He smiled and said, "It's nothing, in fact, His Majesty is quite nice."

"yes……"

"Yeah, I usually joke with him often!"

"Oh, that's really nice..."

Han Shuang touched Li Zhanyue's face, and smiled again.Li Zhanyue didn't know what to say, he felt that Han Shuang seemed to be full of thoughts.

On the second day when Hanshuang entered the palace, a young eunuch picked him up, and Pei Yanqing really arranged for an old gentleman to teach Hanshuang a class, which made Hanshuang calm down a bit, and he couldn't help but hope that Pei Yanqing had really forgotten himself , or even if he recognized it, he didn't take it to heart.

However, Han Shuang was not at ease for a long time, as the bell rang for retreating, his heart was raised again, and he listened to the old master absently for a while, when a eunuch's unique sharp voice came from outside the door: "The emperor is here! "

Pei Yanqing strode into the door, Han Shuang knelt down on the ground, kowtowed and said: "The grass people see His Majesty the Emperor."

The old gentleman on one side also saluted. After Pei Yanqing sat down in the main seat, he only let the old gentleman lie flat, exchanged a few words with him and then let them leave, but never let Hanshuang get up.

Han Shuang already had a bad premonition in his heart, kneeling on the hard stone bricks, the ground in winter was very cold, and his face seemed to be slightly pale from the cold.

Pei Yanqing seemed to see his uneasiness, and said with a sneer, "Li Hanshuang? I know that every child Mo Qing teaches is very good, but I didn't expect that they are so good that they can be other people's teachers!"

Han Shuang's small face had already lost all color, and she knelt on the ground, trembling and speechless.

Pei Yanqing was still high above him, his sharp eyes pierced his back like a sword, the coldness of the sword's edge seemed to freeze his blood, his hands and feet were so cold that he lost consciousness and could not move.

The peaceful days in the mountain village made Hanshuang think that he could hide and forget those things ten years ago. However, when he faced this man again, he realized that the pain engraved in his bones could not be forgotten.

Just like ten years ago, I was so humble and lowly, kneeling in front of this man, being scrutinized, and my fate was decided.

Maybe it was a long time, maybe it was just a moment, Pei Yanqing's cold voice sounded again: "Does Li Zhanyue know your identity?"

"he does not know……"

"Hmph, you've kept it a secret! Do you think you can keep it a secret forever?" Pei Yanqing sneered, paused, and said, "I don't want to see you by Li Zhanyue's side, and I don't want Li Zhanyue to know what I said to you today. You know what to do."

The strength of his whole body was taken away in an instant, he didn't even have the strength to kneel, Hanshuang was paralyzed on the ground, unable to give the answer he should have.

"Did you hear that!" Pei Yanqing raised his voice.

"...it's... grassroots... obeying the order..."
