Chapter 300 Accompanying the Royal Palace, Young Master Dou
The situation in the imperial court and Wuming County is becoming more and more urgent, but since Dou Haowei entered the palace, he doesn't seem to feel the sense of urgency he felt every day in Xiaohan's palace. The whole palace is like another world, and the people living here are so calm.
The emperor sat side by side in the pavilion with the Empress Yan Ling, while Dou Haowei sat a little farther away on the other side of the emperor. All three of them held fishing rods in their hands, and the long fishing line hung in the lake under the pavilion. The small fish floated slightly, but the fish had not been hooked for a long time.
Dou Haowei felt extremely embarrassed, because except for the three of them, all the eunuch maids and bodyguards were rushed to the distance by the emperor. Originally, Dou Haowei also wanted to leave, but the emperor was not sure. Although Dou Haowei deliberately sat away from the emperor, he also heard clearly what the emperor and Empress Yan Ling said in a low voice.
Yan Ling's mother is virtuous and elegant. Dou Haowei soon felt the power of this mother in the palace and understood why the emperor spoiled her so much. But what Dou Haowei didn't understand was that since he entered the palace, the emperor took him with him no matter what he did, even when he was alone with Yan Ling's wife like today. He knew that King Xiaohan asked him to enter the palace to solve the emperor's problems, but so far, he has not seen any danger from the emperor. Everything is so calm, just like the lake in front of us.
"Haowei, who is the most likely to catch fish among the three of us today?"
Maybe he found Dou Haowei's embarrassed appearance, and the emperor asked with a smile.
Dou Haowei sighed and said, "Your Majesty, you used the freshly dug bait, and the bait specially made by the fish eunuchs, but what you gave Haowei was a grape picked from the fruit plate... If the fish in the lake want to taste fresh, it would be cheaper for me. ......”
Dou Haowei's words made the emperor and Yanling couldn't help laughing. The emperor pointed to Dou Haowei with a smile and said, "Thanks to you, you are still the young master of the emperor's mansion. This is very vulgar."
Dou Haowei smiled indifferently, "If you don't say some vulgar words, you can't make the emperor and Yan Ling's wife laugh. Don't you know, emperor? The fish in the water are extremely timid. If there is a sound, they will definitely escape. With such a smile, the fish that should have been eaten with good bait must be gathered on my side.
When Yan Ling heard this, she hurriedly leaned over and looked into the water, and then said to the emperor with a smile, "Look, Your Majesty, Haowei is counting us."
Dou Haowei listened and said quickly, "Your Majesty, Haowei knows that he is guilty..."
The emperor waved his hand with a smile and sighed, "There is no one in the world who doesn't count? How can there be nothing to be counted? I tricked Haowei as bait for a grain of grapes, and he came back with a few jokes. Isn't this just enough to offset it?
Seeing that the emperor seemed to think of something, Mrs. Yan Ling said, "I have a proposal. Why don't we change the bait again? If anyone catches the fish first, it will be a winner, how about it?"
The emperor raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, "What if you win?"
Yan Lingniang smiled and said softly, "One winner and two losers, those two losers have to do something for the winner, and everything is up to the winner."
Dou Haowei nodded, "Your Majesty, please speak."
The emperor looked at Dou Haowei and said in a low voice, "No matter what happens in the future, no matter what happens in the future, I want you to promise to stand on my side forever." After saying this, the emperor smiled and walked away.
In the pavilion, only Dou Haowei was left looking at the emperor's distant figure.
