Chapter 287 Emperor's Raid
The fox brother ran very fast, with his ears pressed tightly against his head to reduce wind resistance. His eyes were fixed on the front, full of anxiety and expectation.
His tail stretched straight out behind him, like a flag pointing the way. The red fox followed closely behind his brother, his steps were just as firm, and his eyes were flashing with the same anxiety.
They ran wildly on the road, and the flowers and plants they passed by were gently swayed by the wind they created. Their figures were like two flashes of lightning, rushing quickly towards Qi Tian Xiaohan Mansion, just to pass the news to Brother Yan and the others in time.
Emperor Yuxuan sat in the sedan chair, leaning forward slightly, staring at Xiao Sizhe. He kept asking, "Have you figured out how to do it now without having to walk?"
Little Sizhe ignored Emperor Yuxuan's question and looked at the luxurious sedan chair excitedly. Her eyes were wide open, flashing with surprise, and she kept praising: "Wow, the emperor's horse Jiao is so beautiful!"
As he spoke, he reached out his hand to touch the curtains. The soft touch made her look intoxicated: "Soft and smooth, so comfortable!" Then, she bounced her feet and sat down next to Emperor Yuxuan with a "pop" sound, her face filled with a happy smile: "It's really enjoyable!"
Emperor Yuxuan looked at Xiao Sizhe's actions, rolled his eyes helplessly, and was secretly angry in his heart, thinking that he was really a worldly-wise person. But he forced himself not to speak out.
"Is there no carriage in Jinting Bulao Township?"
He took a deep breath and thought to himself, trying to calm himself down, and then silently recited the first secret of longevity in his heart - don't get angry.
He clenched his hands into fists and then slowly unclenched them several times, trying to control his emotions.
Two foxes, one white and one red, rushed into Qi Tian Xiao Han Mansion like arrows. Gua Gua Mei and Little Phoenix in the mansion were combing their feathers leisurely on the roof, with the sun shining on them, making them look particularly peaceful.
Suddenly, two birds on the roof saw two little foxes rushing in and asked hurriedly, "Quack, what happened?"
The little fox ran and shouted: "If you see the emperor coming, report it loudly! I will go tell Brother Yan!"
After saying that, he ran towards Sikong Yan without looking back. Guaguamei looked at the little fox's back and stretched out a bird's claw, as if to express her promise.
Sikong Yan was sitting with Shui Qinglian, Xiao Sanlang, Han Mingguang, Ming Yuexin, and Huo Longguo, discussing seriously how to solve the current exposure problem. They all had worries on their faces and their eyes were full of thoughts.
Suddenly, two little foxes ran in from outside, panting and saying, "Brother Yan, the emperor is here! Play dead!"
Everyone present stood up suddenly, with panicked expressions on their faces. Xiao Sanlang frowned and asked anxiously, "What should we do?"
The little fox panted and said, "Don't panic, of course I'll pretend to be dead first and hide it from you!" Shui Qinglian quickly took out the herb ash and carefully smeared it on Sikong Yan's face. His movements were gentle and quick, and his eyes were full of tension.
Emperor Yuxuan was sitting in the sedan chair, feeling extremely anxious. He kept urging the coachman to speed up, hoping to reach Qitian Xiaohan as soon as possible to achieve his goal. The coachman waved the whip and shouted loudly, and the eight-horse sedan chair rushed towards the gate of Qitian Xiaohan like a flash of lightning.
After a while, they arrived at the gate of Qi Tian Xiaohan Mansion.
Xiao Sizhe stuck her head out and shouted excitedly to the guards at the door: "Go and report to Concubine Wan..." When Emperor Yuxuan heard this, his face darkened and he quickly covered her mouth: "Don't report..."
At this time, a different and unusual voice came from the roof: "The Emperor has arrived, the Emperor has arrived, the Emperor has arrived..."
The sound echoed in the air, as if announcing the coming of a storm.
Emperor Yuxuan was sitting in the sedan chair, already feeling uneasy because of some things. When he heard the cry of the white bird on the roof, his eyebrows knitted tightly, and his thick eyebrows seemed to be twisted into a rope. There was a sinister murderous intent in his eyes, like ice water in a cold pond, which made people shudder. He slowly raised his leopard eyes, and his sharp gaze shot directly at the bird on the roof that was flying with a long tail.
His right hand was slightly raised, as if he was really holding a bow in his hand, and his fingers were slightly bent, making the gesture of drawing the bow.
His eyes were full of anger, and he thought bitterly in his heart: If I had a bow in my hand at this moment, I would shoot that damn bird immediately.
Xiao Sizhe looked at Emperor Yuxuan's angry expression, her eyes rolled and a sweet smile appeared on her face.
He gently took away the emperor's hand that was covering his mouth and said with a grin, "Wow, Your Majesty, you are simply a god-level figure! Even the birds know you are the emperor!"
Xiao Sizhe's eyes were sparkling with admiration. She tilted her head slightly, with the corners of her mouth raised, looking innocent and cute.
When Emperor Yuxuan heard Xiao Sizhe's sweet words, the anger in his heart seemed to be instantly extinguished as if by a basin of cool water.
He was stunned at first, then burst into laughter: "Ahahaha...yes, yes! I am a person who knows everything in this world!"
Emperor Yuxuan showed a proud look on his face, he straightened his back, his eyes were full of confidence. He raised his chin slightly, as if to announce his majesty to the whole world.
Xiao Sizha blinked and said, "Your Majesty, you are so powerful, what else in this world can stump you?"
Emperor Yuxuan narrowed his eyes slightly, thought for a moment, and then slowly said: "Although most of the affairs of this world are under my control, there are also some things that are quite tricky. However, I am confident that I can solve them one by one."
Xiao Sizhe held his chin with both hands and asked curiously, "Your Majesty, what is the problem that you find difficult?"
Emperor Yuxuan frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "For example, those who secretly oppose me, and some unpredictable changes. However, I will not let them succeed."
Xiao Sizhe nodded vigorously and said, "Your Majesty will definitely be able to do it!"
Shui Qinglian nervously applied Baicaohui to Sikong Yan, his hands trembling slightly, and beads of sweat kept rolling down his forehead. Her eyes were focused and eager, and the brush in her hand moved carefully on Sikong Yan's face, as if she was completing an extremely delicate work of art.
Finally, the Hundred Herb Ash was applied. Shui Qinglian breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes fixed on Sikong Yan's face, carefully checking if there was anything missing. He stretched out his long fingers, gently touched Sikong Yan's cheek, and felt the evenness of the Hundred Herb Ash.
After confirming that everything was correct, Shui Qinglian slowly stood up. His legs were a little numb from being bent for a long time.
At this time, Xiao Sanlang and Han Mingguang were carrying Sikong Yan and walking quickly towards the mourning hall. Shui Qinglian hurriedly followed behind, her eyes full of worry. As she walked, she looked back from time to time, as if she was worried that something unexpected would happen.
