Chapter 12 Meeting the Empress
During this sleep, Han Xu slept very peacefully.
In the dream, he tasted the fried noodles cooked by his sister, so he soaked the pillow. In order not to be ridiculed by Lin Feng, Han Xu used fire-attribute spiritual power to evaporate it.
Then, Han Xu rummaged through the closet, found a decent piece of clothing and put it on, and then went out.
At the door, the old man selling buns saw Han Xu coming out and shouted: "Young master got up so early today, just in time, the buns that just came out of the cage."
Han Xu smiled and threw out two taels of silver, carried two cages of hot buns into the carriage.
Seeing him leaving, the old man took out a booklet from under the stove, recorded a few pens before he continued to shout again.
"Young Master, will that old man be a member of the party?"
"It shouldn't be. Since I entered the royal city six years ago, he has sold buns here. It should be a department in the court that arranged to monitor me here."
"Then he is really patient."
"It's a good thing to be patient, otherwise I wouldn't be able to find such delicious buns."
A quarter of an hour later, Han Xu's carriage appeared in front of Han Luoling's villa. The Tiance army in front of the door knew his identity and did not stop him.
"sister!"
Han Xu just shouted, and was stunned.
Before him, a fairy-like man walked in. Although he was not decorated with gold and jade, it was enough to make any woman look overshadowed.
"Why are you standing there?" Han Luoling said.
"Aren't I shocked by my sister's peerless face?"
"Another poor."
While chatting and laughing, the subordinates spread the word that the people from the Ministry of Rites had arrived.
"Let's go and meet the Queen." Han Luoling said lightly, as if he was about to go to his own back garden.
The carriage walked forward and came to the center of the royal city. A magnificent and magnificent palace stood in front.
Although Han Xu lived in the royal city for six years, it was also the first time he entered the palace.
As the vermilion palace gate opened one after another, it seemed as if a man-devouring ancient giant beast opened its bloody mouth, revealing its fangs.
Along the way, there were guards wearing armor guarding both sides of the road. Han Xu opened his spiritual consciousness and could feel many hidden and powerful auras within the coverage.
I don’t know how many masters are hiding in the dark.
The palace was much larger than Han Xu thought. After entering the palace gate, the carriage drove for half an hour before reaching the destination of the trip, the queen's bedroom and Kunhua Palace.
An eunuch and palace maid were waiting in front of the door to welcome Han Luoling and Han Xu into the door.
In the hall, Han Xu finally saw the current queen, a graceful and luxurious woman. The years left no traces on her face. At first glance, it still looks like a year old.
"Han Luoling from the north has seen the Empress." Han Luoling bowed and Han Xu also bowed, "Han Xu has seen the Empress."
"Bold!" At this moment, a sharp voice came.
The eunuch standing beside the queen picked up the orchid and pointed at Han Luoling and said, "Bold Han Luoling, why don't he kneel when he sees the queen?"
Han Xu's eyes sank, thinking that it was indeed a routine of palace fighting dramas. This queen must have come to give her sister a warning.
Didn’t the queen scold the eunuch after he finished speaking?
She even picked up a cup of tea and savored it carefully.
This is to let Han Luoling understand who is the master of the harem.
However, Han Luoling still stood still without moving, as if she seemed delicate, but she gave people an extremely strong feeling.
She kept a smile on her face, but she was also disdainful indifference.
Seeing that Han Luoling ignored his words, the eunuch said again: "When the concubines in the harem meet the queen, they must bow down. Han Luoling, you are openly treating my great martial law as nothing, what should you be guilty of!"
Han Luoling sneered at the eunuch. This glance made the eunuch feel cold all over his body, as if at this moment, the space around him became illusory.
Han Xu thought to himself: Mirror flowers and water moon are indeed magical, and just eyes can make people fall into a illusion.
However, Han Luoling instantly withdrew his martial arts, and no one except Han Xu noticed it.
She only heard her say, "My father Han Li is the king of the Northern Territory and has inherited it from generation to generation. You can not kneel when you see Your Majesty. And the descendants of Han can only kneel down."
"You said, should I kneel down to the Queen?"
"But... but the Empress is the lord of the harem!" the eunuch said with a stuttering, his momentum was no longer as good as before.
At this time, the queen finally spoke. She gently put down the teacup and said, "Rareless."
"Empress, I know my mistake."
"Get the punishment yourself."
"promise!"
The eunuch was sent away in a few words. Then, the queen looked at Han Luoling. Han Xu observed secretly, but found that there was no abnormality on the queen's face.
The scene just now was clearly directed by the queen himself, but it was easily resolved by Han Luoling. If ordinary people were to show some emotions at this time, they would definitely show some emotions, whether it was anger, surprise or otherwise, but the queen did not.
This can only be said that her scheming is terrible.
Han Luoling faced the queen's gaze without any timidity.
The queen suddenly smiled and said, "The servant was rude just now, so don't be disgusted by my sister."
She spoke earnestly, as if she was talking to her sister.
Han Luoling said, "You are polite to Empress."
"You still call me Empress?"
"I have not been granted a title yet." Han Luoling said. She is still the princess of the North Realm now, so she naturally will not change her words to be the queen's sister, otherwise she will be deemed true.
In this seemingly ordinary conversation between the two, it seemed that they were hidden by sword lights and sword shadows.
"That's all these days. In the future, everyone should serve His Majesty well." After saying that, the queen turned her eyes to Han Xu and said, "This is Han Xu."
"Han Xu has seen the Empress." Han Xu said seriously, but was thinking about something else in his heart.
As the queen, she naturally knew about the assassination last night. Logically, she should have cared about it, but until now, she didn't mention it and turned the topic on Han Xu.
Obviously, she deliberately did not want to mention this matter.
Han Xu thought to himself that most of this matter was inseparable from the queen.
Han Xu was thinking about what to say, but he heard the queen say, "It turns out that he is a handsome talent. I don't know if there is a marriage. If not, I can help introduce some girls."
"When I say that to the Empress, I am still young, so it is too early to talk about marriage." Han Xu said, "But if the Empress refuses, I will probably wipe out the Empress's face, so I dare to ask for a reward from the Empress?"
The queen was a little surprised, and Han Luoling was also a little surprised. No one knew where Han Xu was going to make trouble.
However, the queen said, "Since that's the case, what reward do you want to get?"
She had already known Han Xu's actions in the royal city, and thought he was just a idle playboy, so what else could he do to make trouble?
Han Xu bowed and said, "I am not asking for rewards for myself."
"Last night, my sister was attacked at the post station. I heard that General Wang Qian secretly took action to deal with all the assassins, so my sister was able to arrive at the royal city safely. So, I want to ask General Wang Qian for a reward to express my gratitude."
