Chapter 373 Secret

Han Guanshi was about to kneel down to greet the emperor.

Unexpectedly, the emperor suddenly approached him quickly and snatched the gift list from his hand.

Han Guanshi was so shocked that he even forgot to kneel down.

Not only Han Guanshi, but others were also surprised.

The emperor has always been calm, and he has never seen him lose his temper like this.

The accompanying eunuch Deng was stunned at first, and then stepped forward with an anxious look, "Your Majesty..."

When going out, for the sake of safety, whether it is food or drink, or objects that come into contact with, they are usually tested by eunuch Deng first, and only when they are confirmed to be non-toxic will they be handed over to the emperor.

But when eunuch Deng saw that the emperor took the gift list without waiting for him to check it, he was afraid that there was something wrong and wanted to take it from him.

Who knew that the emperor not only did not let him touch the gift list, but also suddenly shouted at him fiercely, "You are so presumptuous..."

Eunuch Deng was so scared that he knelt down and begged for mercy. He had no idea what he had done wrong, and he didn't know why the emperor looked so horrible.

The emperor ignored eunuch Deng and stroked the gift list carefully as if it were a treasure.

Everyone's eyes followed the emperor's movements and fell on the gift list.

On the cover, there was a painting.

Ling Chu looked at it curiously and found that there was a graceful peony painted on it. On the peony was a lifelike colorful butterfly.

At this time, the emperor's hand was on the colorful butterfly.

What surprised Ling Chu was that she found that the emperor's hand was actually trembling slightly?

She subconsciously raised her head and her eyes fell on the emperor's face.

The expression on that majestic face was very complicated at the moment.

There was love, heartache, guilt, pain...

Curiosity killed the cat.

After just one look, Ling Chu's heart tightened and he immediately lowered his eyes, looking at his nose and his heart.

Although others were also curious, they all saw the emperor's loss of composure and anger just now.

No one dared to peek into the emperor's secrets.

Everyone, like Ling Chu, lowered their heads and kept silent.

No one dared to leave, let alone make the slightest noise.

The scene was dead silent.

It seemed like a long time had passed, but it also seemed like only a few breaths.

The emperor unfolded the gift list with trembling hands.

The gift list contained all kinds of gold and silver jewelry, jewelry, head ornaments, and silk and satin.

The emperor's eyes swept over it, and fell on the familiar yet unfamiliar handwriting, and his heart ached.

He raised his hand and gently stroked the handwriting.

The action was like stroking a beloved woman.

After a while.

The emperor slowly closed the gift list and looked at the second gift list in his hand.

There was a picture of tall and slender green bamboo on the cover.

The second gift list was thicker and longer than the first one, and it was densely filled with all kinds of gifts.

The handwriting on it was the same as the previous gift list.

It made the emperor feel familiar and unfamiliar.

The long-lost heartache surged up.

The emperor's knuckles turned white as he held the gift lists.

After reading the two gift lists one by one, the emperor found a letter at the bottom.

On the cover of the letter were written the words "Ling Chu personally wrote".

The emperor paused and did not open the letter.

"Princess Jiashan."

Ling Chu was stunned and subconsciously raised her head.

She saw the emperor handing the letter to her.

She was even more surprised.

Seeing that she did not move, the emperor stretched out his hand in front of her again, "Your letter."

Ling Chu quickly glanced at the emperor, and seeing that he was not angry, she slowly reached out to take the letter.

Her eyes fell on the envelope and saw her name, and then she knew why the emperor gave her the letter.

But the handwriting on it was very strange, she had never seen it before.

The emperor withdrew his hand, but saw Ling Chu holding the letter without moving.

"Open it and take a look."

"Okay."

Ling Chu was a little confused, but she felt that the emperor seemed a little anxious. Moreover, it seemed that he wanted to take the letter away and open it himself.

The emperor was so abnormal that Ling Chu had no time to think about it. He raised his hand and gently tore open the envelope.

The emperor retracted his gaze and slowly raised his head, but he didn't look at anyone.

His eyes looked at the various boxes that the servants were carrying, hugging, carrying, and carrying.

The servants were uneasy, not knowing what had happened. Seeing that Prince Dingyuan and the others were standing quietly by the side, they dared not move, and lowered their heads to let the emperor look at them.

The letter in Ling Chu's hand was not long, and there were only two things written on it.

One was to tell her that the things on the gift list of the Colorful Butterfly were all for her.

The other was for her to pass it on to Ning Chuyi on her behalf.

The envelope was unsigned.

Ling Chu's first reaction was that her master knew that Prince Dingyuan's mansion was giving her a re-birth ceremony, so he sent her these gifts.

But as soon as this thought came up, she was rejected again.

The handwriting on the letter was not from the hand of Xuanyi Zhenren, but was clearly written by a woman.

Moreover, as far as he knew, her master had no contact with Ning Chuyi, so how could he suddenly send him so many things?

It was not Xuanyi Zhenren, nor her other two senior brothers.

Ling Chu was confused.

After the emperor looked at the boxes, he turned back to look at Ling Chu.

"Princess Jiashan, can you show me the letter?"

As soon as the emperor spoke, Ning Chuyi and Prince Dingyuan frowned at the same time.

Ling Chu looked up at the emperor and handed the letter over silently.

To be honest, she was also very curious.

The letter was for her, and she also had a gift.

But she didn't know who gave her the gift.

The emperor didn't have any of those things, but he clearly recognized the paintings and handwriting on the gift list.

However, although he was curious, Ling Chu did not ask a single question.

Curiosity kills the cat.

Keeping away from the secrets of the royal family, especially the secrets of the emperor, is the best way to save your life.

The emperor read the letter quickly, his face mixed with sadness and joy.

After a long time.

The emperor retracted his gaze and looked at Han Guanshi.

"Who sent these gift lists and gifts?"

Han Guanshi was also uneasy, but he had fought on the battlefield with Prince Dingyuan when he was young, so he was still calm at this time.

"Your Majesty, it was sent by Weiyuan Escort Agency."

"Who is the escort and where is he now?"

"It's the escort leader Lei Dagang. I just asked him to go to our banquet."

"Quickly call Lei to see me."

Lei Dagang heard that the emperor summoned him, and hurried over anxiously.

After the greetings, the emperor immediately pointed at the gifts carried by the servants and asked, "Who escorted you to bring these things?"

Lei Dagang was confused, but he said respectfully, "Your Majesty, these things were sent back to Beijing by a man named Chen Wu. One is for Princess Jiashan, and one is for Lord Ning."

Ning Chuyi frowned. Some of those things were for him?

How could the things for him be sent to Dingyuan Palace?

After thinking about it, Ning Chuyi found that he did not know Chen Wu.

This name does not sound like a real name.

The emperor had the same idea.

After questioning Lei Dagang for a long time, he did not get any useful information.

The escort agency only delivers the escorted goods to the designated person safely, and will not ask for detailed information about the person who entrusted the escort.

The emperor was silent for a while and waved away Lei Biaotou.

"Quickly summon Duke Ningguo to see me."
