Taiji Palace.
Wang De explained Kong Yan's request in detail and waited nervously.
The morning court session ended not long after Kong Yan left.
After the disaster relief fund corruption case, the officials of the three provinces and six departments were busy.
Li Shiming remained expressionless for a long time.
"Since he wants to go, allow it!"
After a long time, Li Shiming said coldly.
Boom!
Wang De's brain exploded.
"His Majesty has agreed?" Wang De suddenly raised his head and looked at Li Shi Min, his expression filled with undisguised shock.
Ye Ting Palace was a forbidden place for all men in the world except Li Shi Min.
Even Retired Emperor Li Yuan would never go to his son's back garden unless it was absolutely necessary.
After his abdication, Li Yuan seemed to have only done two things in his life-
sleep with women and have children!
"What? Do you think he still dares to commit adultery in the palace?”Li Shi Min sneered.
"…"
Wang De didn't dare to answer. He could only bow and leave the hall.
Seeing Kong Yan again, Wang De sighed and said,""His Majesty has agreed.
"Lead the way."
Kong Yan was not surprised. He even knew that even if he did not take the initiative to go to Ye Ting Palace, Li Shimin would have asked Empress Zhangsun to summon him.
"Young Master Kong is the first person who dares to make such a request to His Majesty.”
Wang De smiled bitterly as he led the way.
He had been serving Li Shi Min for many years, but this was the first time he had encountered such a thing.
"Don't think so dirty.”Kong Yan snorted and said unhappily,"Do you think our Emperor would ask for my help himself?”
Wang De laughed dryly, but this was not easy to answer.
"What does the Empress like?" Kong Yan asked casually.
Wang De thought for a moment and said,"Your Highness loves poetry. She often scrolls poems and she likes embroidery…"
Along the way, Kong Yan asked about Empress Zhangsun's hobbies and interests. Wang De answered a few of them selectively.
He could only wipe away his cold sweat and keep quiet about the rebellious questions such as how many times the empress slept with the emperor in a month.
Kong Yan didn't get the gossip he wanted to know, so he wasn't disappointed. Instead, he felt a little embarrassed.
Asking a eunuch about sexual matters was really a little inappropriate.
Therefore, he made up for it in time.
"Eunuch Wang has been by His Majesty's side for many years. You should miss your family, right?”Kong Yan asked with concern.
Wang De was startled and immediately said self-deprecatingly,"What family does this old servant have?”
Kong Yan nodded and sighed."The Sui Dynasty was tyrannical. The world was in chaos. The people were displaced. Even if they had relatives, they should have been separated or died in the years of war.”
Wang De was silent. A trace of sadness flashed in the depths of his eyes.
"When we rise, the people will suffer; when we die, the people will suffer.”Kong Yan sighed."Fortunately, our Tang Emperor has shown mercy to the world. In the future, the people will definitely be able to live a good life.”
Wang De's expression was strange. He didn't think that Kong Yan would have any good feelings for Li Shiming.
He glanced at Kong Yan's expression from the corner of his eye, and his pupils constricted.
Kong Yan's left hand was playing with a yellow fish-shaped jade pendant.
"Young Master Kong has always been known as a great philanthropist.”Wang De laughed. He tried his best to suppress his gaze and not let himself show the slightest abnormality.
Kong Yan smiled and said,"If you are poor, you will be good to yourself. If you are good, you will help the world." I don't know how to be an official, but when it comes to business, no one in the world can compare to me.”
"When you have a lot of money, you want a little reputation. I've saved a lot of people over the years. Every time I see their families reunite, I feel quite good.”
"Hehe, is that so?" Wang De wiped the sweat from his forehead. His lips trembled, but he did not say anything in the end. He only smiled apologetically.
"It's just a small matter. It won't cost much.”Kong Yan chuckled and asked,"How much longer?”
"Soon, soon," Wang De quickly said,"but we need to inform the Empress first."”
"Yes." "Hmm," Kong Yan said softly. He didn't say anything else and started to look around.
Far away from Taiji Palace, there were countless pavilions on both sides, as well as mountains, rivers, and gardens.
Wang De followed Kong Yan's gaze and introduced them one by one, roughly describing the situation in the palace.
In front of the Qing Ning Palace, Kong Yan tidied his red robe and waited for Empress Zhangsun's summons.
"Announce, Halberd Wielder Kong Yan to enter the hall!”The eunuch on duty shouted.
"Shoes ~"
Kong Yan was just about to walk in when Wang De pointed at his feet and reminded him.
Kong Yan took off his shoes and complained to himself,""Taking off your shoes to see the empress, why do I feel like I'm having an affair?”
He did not dare to say this out loud.
The floor was warm. Kong Yan had already felt it once in the Yin and Yang Palace last night, so he wasn't surprised.
After looking around the hall, Kong Yan thought of a phrase,"Elegant and luxurious!
This was originally a word used to describe a woman's nobility, but Kong Yan felt that it was appropriate to describe this palace.
"This subject, Halberd Wielder Kong Yan, greets the Empress.”Glancing at the figures hidden behind the veil, Kong Yan cupped his hands and bowed from afar.
"Kong Yan, why do you want to see this prince?”Empress Zhangsun's voice rang out, as pleasant as ever.
Kong Yan pondered and said,"On the night of the birthday banquet, I seemed to have forgotten to bid farewell to the Empress. I was in no mood to eat or drink, and I couldn't sit or sleep. The Empress's voice and smile often appeared in my mind.”
