Chapter 288 The Unavoidable Invitation

Chapter 288: An invitation that cannot be avoided

Xie Yuan took his men to Yousi Yamen to register his name and report, and handed over the memorial to wait for the emperor to visit him before summoning him.

Unsurprisingly, the official who answered her memorial looked and praised her again.

Xie Yuan reluctantly curled the corners of his lips and squeezed out a smile, expressed his politeness, seized the gap and said goodbye.

When I walked to the gate of the yamen, I happened to meet a woman who looked straight and came in with her head raised and passed by Xie Yuan and his group.

If Xie Yuan hadn't taken the initiative to avoid it, they would have probably bumped into the woman's sideways.

Xiao Erdan turned his head and glanced at the woman's back, curled his lips dissatisfiedly, and said in a low voice:

"Look at her arrogant look, her eyes are on her head, and she doesn't look at people when she walks. What's so great about it!"

Xie Yuan frowned and explained to Xiao Erdan impatiently: "Female looking at her clothes, she should be the female official in the palace. Just move aside, you just talk too much. If you say so much, you can go back first."

Xiao Erdan was a little dissatisfied when he heard this and said, "A palace maid's eyes are so tall? General, your grade is not higher than her. I just can't stand others' despise you."

Xie Yuan sighed deeply when he heard this, and stopped outside the yamen. He pressed one hand on the hilt of the sword and the other hand on his waist. He was thinking about how to attend class with Xiao Erdan and let him grow.

Sun Tian beside him said, "This is the capital, not as good as in a military camp. Maybe if you bump into someone on the street, then your relationship will be in line, let alone the female official in the palace? Erdan, as foreign ministers, it is better to be careful."

When Xie Yuan heard this, he said everything she wanted to say. So he stretched out his finger and pointed at Xiao Erdan threateningly and said:

"Sun Tian is right. Pay attention to your mouth. I really want to beat you up just now on the street."

Xiao Erdan looked at Xie Yuan's lips trembling, and seemed to be crying in grievance. Just as she was about to speak up for her, she heard Xie Yuan continue to say:

"I know you are holding on to me, but I don't need you to hug me. If I can't help it, I will do it myself!"

After saying that, his eyes stared at him fiercely, showing his domineeringness. Xiao Erdan then gave in and lowered his head and said peacefully:

"I know the general."

Xie Yuan was relieved and prepared to get on the horse and leave here to find his master.

Unexpectedly, the group had just turned over and sat on the horse's back. The arrogant female official hurriedly ran out of the yamen, looked around and ran towards Xie Yuan and the others:

"Wait! Is this newly promoted general Jie Yuan Jie?"

The female official's face was full of smiles, and the joyful light in her eyes could warm up the person, which was completely different from the way she looked when she first entered the door. It made the group of young men who had been fighting in war stunned and didn't know how to react.

Xie Yuan frowned even more, thinking that she came to him again, because she was curious or for some other reason, so she came to him to talk to him.

So Xie Yuan did not dismount and pulled the reins, and while making the horse turn around, he said politely:

"This sister, it happens that I have some important things. Why don't we talk about it later?"

As he said that, he was going to take people away.

When the palace maid heard this, she rushed to Xie Yuan's horse, stretched out her arms to stop him, and said with a smile:

"General Jie misunderstood. I am the female official in Princess Huaizhen's mansion. When we heard that you were going to Beijing, we have been waiting for you. We asked me to come to the Ministry of Justice every day to ask. This time we finally waited for you. Come with me to see her."

When Xie Yuan heard this, he looked at the female official with displeasure and said no.

The personal soldiers behind her all showed a laughing expression.

"I really have something important to do." Xie Yuan held it in for a long time and only said this sentence.

The female official put her arms down, held her hands dignifiedly in front of her body, and said with a smile on her face:

"What important thing can General Jie have compared to the invitation of the princess and the lady?... Now we cannot go to the palace to see His Majesty immediately."

Xie Yuanyizai thought to himself that he was the emperor's daughter, and except for moving out the emperor, the prince could defeat her.

But she just reported that she didn't know any prince and couldn't even find an excuse to shirk it.

So Xie Yuan thought about it and said, "...I'll ask the female official to tell the princess, I'll go to her mansion to see her. If Yu Li doesn't match, I'll be criticized, so I'll stop going."

When the female official heard this, the friendly smile on her face immediately turned into a sneer, and then turned into a arrogant look with her eyes higher than the top. She raised her chin and snorted coldly and said:

"When did our princess care about these things? General Jie doesn't have to think so much about our princess. Could it be that he looks down on the daughter of the Tian family and is unwilling to go?"

Xie Yuan couldn't speak anymore. The horse under his crotch seemed to feel Xie Yuan's anxiety. He sniffed and shook his head, and stepped on the horse's hooves for a few steps.

Seeing Xie Yuan frowning and his face was full of impatientness, Sun Tian leaned against her ears and whispered to her:

"General, you'd better go there. How can you hide from it? At worst, you can leave her mansion this time and make her unable to find it."

Xie Yuan had no choice but to breathe helplessly and said, "Please take the lead."

When the female official heard this, her eyebrows and eyes suddenly burst into laughter, and turned around and walked towards a carriage parked next to her.

Xie Yuan followed the carriage and walked slowly for a long time until Xie Yuan's patience was almost worn out, and he stopped on a street near the palace gate.

The female official got out of the car first, and as soon as she entered the door, she said a few words to the guardian. The guardian glanced at Xie Yuan and immediately pointed to a servant. The servant ran to the backyard to report the news.

"You are tired from the journey and haven't had time to wash up and eat. Come on, except for getting to know the general, come with me, and there are already arrangements in the mansion." The female official warmly greeted Xie Yuan's personal soldiers.

Xiao Erdan and the others looked at Xie Yuan, and saw that she had no objection, they followed the female official.

Then a little palace maid bowed her head and gave a gift to Xie Yuan, then took her inside.

Princess Huaizhen was taking a nap when she heard the doorman say Xie Yuan was coming, and immediately hurriedly called someone to dress her up.

But sitting in front of the dressing table, the palace maid had just combed her hair. She looked at herself in the mirror, and suddenly her eyes lit up, stopping the process of dressing up, and decided to see Xie Yuan with her black hair scattered.

So when Xie Yuan saw Princess Huaizhen, the first thing she saw was that she was wearing comfortable indoor clothes and her hair was scattered.

If Xie Yuan was really a man, he should be panicked at this time, then covered his eyes and exited the door, kept chanting rudely, and his heart would be beating constantly because of such "seduction".

But Xie Yuan is a girl... Although she has not had the habit of dressing up since she was a child, she has been used to seeing her mother's daily life, and she does not have the heart to like women...

So she just held a calm and wooden face and looked at the princess without any grudges.

But she was so confused by this...the princess.
