Chapter 22: The paper wedding contract throwing everything into disorder
The image was a picturesque road paved with green slabs and bamboo trees shading it. Specks of moonlight were drowned out, giving off a deep night scene within. When boots stepped on the green slabs, shadows would cover it. Step by step, as if what was stepped on was not a road, but rather the silence of the night.
The rigid imperial palace, besides the uniformed pace of the patrols, the sounds of the wind blowing on the leaves, no other noise could be heard.
The bold and powerful two words 'Imperial Study' above his head gave off an imposing gloss.
Eunuch Cao went in first, after a short period of time, he came out of the palace hall's door and respectfully bent down to welcome him to enter.
Xiao Xu, without looking around, directly stepped into the 'Imperial Study'.
A bright lantern was placed on the edge of a table in the palace. It lit up the entire palace hall within, also illuminating the person with a brush, writing on the table.
The bright yellow dragon robe seemed to have absorbed all the light, the light flowing on that robe. The golden silk was like the brightest flow of fire in the night, making it so that people didn't dared to look straight at it.
"Your son pays his respect to Father the Emperor." Xiao Xu's emotionless cold voice sounded within this palace hall, neither servile nor overbearing.
The person writing didn't speak, the brush in his hand continued to move. As if he didn't hear the person in front of him paying respect to him.
