However, the surprise was not over yet.
When Zhu Huidi walked out of Duan Hu's room, she realized something.
The corpses of the five snow mastiffs that he had killed had disappeared.
"Where's bengong's snow mastiff?" Zhu Huidi asked the eunuchs.
The eunuchs knelt down before Zhu Huidi could ask.
It seemed that when Zhu Huidi came out, they already knew that things were not good and were ready to be punished.
" Your Highness, Your Highness, Lord Duan Duan said that it's useless to keep a few animals. It's better to keep them." The little eunuch's teeth chattered non-stop. It was unknown whether he was frozen or frightened from kneeling in the snow.
"Speak, why not?" Zhu Huidi already had a bad feeling.
"Lord Duan said that it would be better to let the soldiers have some meat. The corpse of the snow mastiff has already been dragged away by Lord Duan.”After the little eunuch finished speaking, he almost stuck his head into the snow.
Zhu Huidi took a deep breath. Her breasts rose and fell for a moment before calming down.
Duan Hu, this big bad guy!
This demon!
Zhu Huidi didn't dare to curse out loud, but she cursed Duan Hu in her heart.
However, after brewing for a long time, Zhu Huidi was like a deflated ball.
Forget it, she couldn't defeat Duan Hu anyway.
Moreover, her emperor brother would definitely not stand up for her.
"Let's go back to the palace!"
After Zhu Huidi finished speaking, she limped towards the palace.
However, her eyes kept looking around as if she was afraid that Duan Hu would suddenly appear and pounce on her.
The eunuchs and maids behind Zhu Huidi looked as if they had seen a ghost.
In the palace, Emperor Tianqi was still watching the shadow play in the warm pavilion as usual.
Empress Zhang Yan and the Divine Empress 'guest Yin Yue were by his side.
Watching shadow plays seemed to have become one of Emperor Tianqi's compulsory lessons.
It was just that today, he wasn't as engrossed in it as he was every day. He kept slipping away.
Empress Zhang Yan, who was sitting beside him, seemed to have noticed this as well, but she did not ask.
It seemed that ever since Duan Hu entered the palace, her husband had undergone some strange changes.
The head eunuch Li Yongzhen stood in the warm pavilion with his hands hanging by his side. A young eunuch hurriedly walked in from the door and whispered into his ear.
Li Yongzhen waved his hand and then lowered his head to Emperor Tianqi's side.
"Your Majesty, the Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, Uncle Zhong Yong requests an audience.”Li Yongzhen said softly, as if he was afraid of disturbing Emperor Tianqi who was watching a shadow play.
"Duan Hu is here? Quick, let him in!" Emperor Tianqi immediately perked up and turned to look at Li Yongzhen.
Li Yongzhen was stunned.
Normally, even if the Minister of War, Sun Chengzong, came, he would have to wait outside the door.
In the imperial court, Wei Zhongxian was probably the only one who would be immediately received.
"Yes." Li Yongzhen quickly walked out of the warm pavilion.
Outside the warm pavilion, Duan Hu put on a black cloak from the new boat and shook off the snow on his body.
"Lord Duan, His Majesty has summoned you.”Li Yongzhen said with a smile.
Who in the palace wasn't a shrewd person?
Just based on Emperor Tianqi's attitude towards Duan Hu, Li Yongzhen dared to say that in the future, Duan Hu would probably soar to the heavens.
He would definitely become one of the only nobles in the court.
Although Duan Hu was only the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, as long as the case of the White Lotus Society was resolved, he would be able to deal with the situation.
A third-grade Da Hong Pao definitely wouldn't be able to escape.
Duan Hu smiled and walked into the warm pavilion.
"Men, give Minister Duan a seat!"
Duan Hu had just entered when Emperor Tianqi waved his hand to summon a little eunuch to give him a seat.
The shadow play in the house also stopped.
"Your Majesty, I will take my leave first." Empress Zhang Yan stood up and bowed slightly to Emperor Tianqi before leaving the warm pavilion.
"Emperor, bengong will return to the palace first, but bengong has something to ask of you.”Ke Yinyue looked at Emperor Tianqi and said.
Emperor Tianqi smiled." Mother, just tell me what you want. It doesn't matter if you want it or not."”
Ke Yinyue looked at Duan Hu and smiled slightly. It seemed that there was a lot of meaning in her smile.
"Emperor, bengong has heard all year round about how difficult the Liaodong war is, but I have never seen it with my own eyes. I'm afraid I won't be able to see it in this life, so bengong wants to let Zhongyong uncle come to bengong and tell bengong about Liaodong.”Ke Yinyue said with a smile.
"Haha, I thought it was something important. It's fine. As long as Duan Qing's family has time, I'll go. I'm also very curious about the customs of Liaodong.”
Seeing that Emperor Tianqi had agreed, Ke Yinyue smiled charmingly at Duan Hu before leaving the warm pavilion.
Instantly, other than Emperor Tianqi, only Duan Hu and Li Yongzhen were left in the warm pavilion.
"Minister Duan, why have you come to the palace?”Emperor Tianqi asked.
Duan Hu didn't say anything. Instead, he turned to look at Li Yongzhen.
When Emperor Tianqi saw Duan Hu's gaze, he understood and said,""Minister Duan must be cold since she came here in the wind and snow. Li Banban, go and prepare 10,000 ginseng tea for Minister Duan to warm her up.”
Li Yongzhen hurriedly nodded and left the warm pavilion.
"Your Majesty, I have found the whereabouts of the White Lotus Society. The reason why the White Lotus Society was able to enter the city was because someone in the army was secretly helping them!”Duan Hu raised his head and looked at Emperor Tianqi.
"What?! In the army!"
Emperor Tianqi was first stunned, then shocked!
