Chapter 3662 A Little Sweetheart 19
After that, she hummed a little tune and strolled back to her room.

The next day, the sky was bright and the palace was in full bloom.
Just after the morning court, Huo Yanzhi, the fifth master of the Hou Mansion, was summoned to the Yangxin Hall by Emperor Shengyuan.
In the Yangxin Hall, everything is bright yellow. The floor is paved with gold bricks, and the five-clawed golden dragon engraved with gold is majestic and majestic. It coils around the giant pillars, as if it is about to fly into the air in the next second.
"Cough cough...cough cough cough..."
There were bursts of coughing, heartbreaking, as if he was about to cough up his internal organs in the next second.
The man was wearing a green robe, his body was as long as jade, and he stood upright in front of the bright yellow table.
Emperor Sheng Yuan, who was leaning on the dragon chair, had gray hair. He had been ill these days and had lost a lot of weight.
He looked at the man in front of him, his eyes full of love. As he watched, he felt a little dazed, as if he was looking at another person through Huo Yanzhi in front of him.
"You look very much like your mother-in-law."
He murmured in a low voice with a pleased tone.
Huo Yanzhi just lowered his head and said nothing.
Seeing his cold look, as if he didn't care about anything, Emperor Shengyuan sighed, "When will you enter the court? I have chosen a position for you. You will do it for two years. When the time is right, I will serve you Restore identity.”
Hearing this, the man lowered his eyes slightly, his long and sparse eyelashes covering his deep gaze.
He opened his lips lightly and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty, but I have no intention of becoming an official and I am quite satisfied with my current life."
Every time Emperor Sheng Yuan heard what he said, he felt as if his already weak body was burning up from inside.
His eyes widened, he gasped and slapped the table with a "bang", which made the pen, ink, paper and inkstone above him tremble.
"Ridiculous! You said you are satisfied with being a low-level businessman?! You are obviously full of talents. Among the princes, who is more outstanding than you?! Bai Qing! Why are you so stubborn?! A hundred years from now, I will... After all, I will leave this seat to you!"
He coughed violently several times and finished speaking in one breath, his throat felt itchy again.
He was so weak that he fell into the dragon chair and pointed at Huo Yanzhi angrily.
Bai Qing is Huo Yanzhi's name.
Huo Yanzhi's mood did not fluctuate. He bent down and saluted, "Your Majesty, please calm down. It's you who praised me so much. My ability can only be limited to doing business. I don't know anything about being an official."
"You know nothing about it!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Sheng Yuan became furious again. This time, even foul language came out.
"Don't think I don't know how you serve as Lao Qi's adviser behind the scenes! Of all the major things he has done, you are not behind any of them?!"
It turns out he knew everything.
Huo Yanzhi was not surprised at all. He smiled and said, "The Holy One is wise."
The more salty he was, the angrier Sheng Yuan Emperor became. He gritted his teeth and said, "You damn Yingming! Have you been Huo Yanzhi for so long that you forget whose blood is flowing in your bones?! I am your father!"
Standing aside, the trembling chief steward glanced at Huo Yanzhi imploringly and said to himself: Mr. Huo Wu, don't be angry with the emperor!
If I continue to be angry, I feel like I'm going to call the imperial doctor again.
Huo Yanzhi received the signal and lowered his head in time, "Father."
Emperor Sheng Yuan finally felt a little more comfortable. He gritted his teeth, but he couldn't do anything about his most beloved son.
"Gungun, I don't want to see you for the moment!"
Huo Yanzhi immediately knelt down and kowtowed, "Then I will retire, and my father will take care of himself."
