Chapter 210 See you late
"Prime Minister, that person inside is a relative of the emperor. I'm afraid only you can handle it."

Situ Tianyin pursed his lips and smiled.

No wonder this girl didn't go in. It was the emperor's relatives who were causing trouble inside.

"What's going on? The truth is not here to show you off."

Lu Hao couldn't laugh or cry.

It turned out that the man inside was the Emperor's Ninth Uncle, and people in the imperial capital called him Ninth Emperor Uncle.

Uncle Jiuhuang is an old-hearted man, so he falls in love with Gongsun Meng and wants to ask her to dance alone.

However, Gongsun Meng obviously didn't like this old guy and refused directly.

If they were ordinary guests, they would not dare to cause trouble in Tianyin Pavilion. However, the Nine Emperors Uncle was the emperor's uncle, so how could he swallow such a sigh of relief.

At this time, Gongsun Meng, who heard that someone was making trouble, also came over.

"Mengmeng meets the Pavilion Master!"

Gongsun Meng bowed slightly, but his eyes were on Lu Hao.

"Mengmeng, this is the Prime Minister of our Great Yan Empire, Lu Hao."

Situ Tianyin introduced with a smile.

"Mengmeng pays homage to the Prime Minister!"

Gongsun Meng bowed Yingying.

"Girls don't have to be polite!"

Lu Hao examined the beautiful spy.

Although he could tell that she was a spy, when it came to catching thieves and taking stolen goods, he certainly couldn't arrest people from Tianyin Pavilion without evidence.

Besides, whose order did Gongsun Meng sneak into the imperial capital, and what was his purpose?These things need to be investigated slowly.

"Pavilion Master, that Nine Emperors uncle is making moves, Mengmeng doesn't want to go."

Gongsun Meng pretended to be charming and pitiful.

"Uncle Nine Emperors! I can't afford to offend this Pavilion Master. Otherwise, please beg the Prime Minister."

Situ Tianyin directly passed the blame to Lu Hao.

"Master Prime Minister, please save the little girl."

Gongsun Meng looked at Lu Hao and begged.

Lu Hao gave Situ Tianyin a hard look, as if he couldn't do anything to her.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, you hold a high position, so it shouldn't be a problem to solve this small matter, right?"

Situ Tianyin was sure to defeat him.

"Okay, I'm going to meet this Nine Emperors Uncle."

Lu Hao finally had to agree.

To be honest, the last thing he wants to do right now is such a thankless business.

This Nine Emperors Uncle was actually not Murong Yuan's biological uncle, but a distant uncle. Because he ranked ninth, he was named Nine Emperors Uncle.

Uncle Nine Emperors came to Tianyin Pavilion many times, always for the charming Gongsun Meng.

In the past, Gongsun Meng would dance and sing for him alone, but since he started to touch beautiful women, Gongsun Meng found various excuses not to come.

Therefore, he was furious today, throwing things and kicking people, just to put pressure on Gongsun Meng.

Although Tianyin Pavilion is also a major force on the mainland, it would not be a good thing if it really becomes an enemy of the imperial family.

Uncle Jiuhuang estimated that Tianyin Pavilion would compromise and sent Gongsun Meng to deal with the aftermath.

However, what I didn't expect was that the person who walked in was the current Prime Minister.

"Master Prime Minister?"

When Uncle Nine Emperors saw clearly who was coming, he suddenly looked confused.

"Hahaha... I found out that Uncle Nine Emperors was drinking and having fun here, so I naturally wanted to come over and say hello."

Lu Haole laughed.

The Nine Emperors Uncle had grown old and matured. He immediately noticed something and a flattering smile appeared on his face.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, I never thought we could meet here. Come on, come on, please sit down! Let's have a drink!"

Uncle Nine Emperors accompanied him with a smile.

"Uncle Nine Emperors, this place... is too messy! Otherwise, why don't we move to another place?"

Lu Hao looked at the debris on the ground and asked with a smile.

"Okay, then let's open another room and have a drink!"

Uncle Nine Emperors readily agreed.

Situ Tianyin immediately made a big move and arranged the two of them into the next room.Wine and delicacies were served again, and Uncle Nine Emperors poured wine for Lu Hao himself, not daring to put on any airs in front of him.

"Master Prime Minister, I give you a toast!"

Uncle Nine Emperors took the initiative to carry the cup.

"Uncle Nine Emperors, you're welcome, let's drink together!"

Lu Hao smiled and raised his glass.

The two drank the wine in one gulp and started chatting.

During this period, Situ Tianyin also brought Gongsun Meng to come over in person to apologize to the Nine Emperors Uncle, which was enough to give the Nine Emperors Uncle his face.

In fact, Uncle Nine Emperors is not stupid. Lu Hao can stand up for Tianyin Pavilion, so he naturally does not dare to cause trouble again.

One drink after another, the two of them seemed to regret meeting each other too late.

Lu Hao had drank a lot of wine before, but now that he was drinking like this, he was already feeling a little dizzy.

The original name of the Nine Emperors Uncle was Murong Potian. He was the elder brother of the late emperor and was given the title "King of Qi". After Murong Yuan ascended the throne, he retired to a secluded courtyard in the north of the city and seemed to have no interest in the throne of the emperor.

However, as Lu Hao got to know him better, a bad feeling arose in his heart.

It is said that "the great hermit hides in the city", this Nine Emperors Uncle is probably such a person.

In fact, the two of them met once before the Empress Dowager's mourning hall, but Lu Hao didn't take it to heart.

"Prime Minister, what's going on with the Emperor?"

Uncle Nine Emperors asked.

"The Emperor was seriously injured after being assassinated during the last Autumn Hunting Ceremony, and is still in a coma... Everyone knows about this!"

Lu Hao responded casually.

"What I mean is... can the emperor still wake up?"

Uncle Nine Emperors asked.

"This... I really don't know the truth. I think only the imperial doctor at the Taiyuan Hospital knows."

Lu Hao responded seriously.

"To be honest with you, Prime Minister, as far as I know, the Emperor may never wake up!"

Uncle Nine Emperors said in a deep voice.

"This... I don't dare to speculate on the truth. I hope that the emperor will be blessed and wake up as soon as possible."

Lu Hao seemed to be in a heavy mood.

"Prime Minister, how is the situation of His Highness the Crown Prince?"

Uncle Nine Emperors asked again.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was unfortunately hit by an arrow during the last civil strife. However, he is not in danger of life and is still recovering."

Lu Hao didn't hide it.

"Since the prince is fine, the future of the empire is fine, and I can rest assured."

Uncle Nine Emperors seemed relieved.

"Uncle Nine Emperors cares about the country and the people, I admire you!"

Lu Hao smiled and praised.

"As I get older, I no longer have any competitive spirit. As long as the empire is well, I will be satisfied."

Uncle Nine Emperors looked like he was in his old age.

"Hahaha... How can he be old? It turns out that Uncle Nine Emperors is an old man with an old heart. Otherwise, he would still find Miss Gongsun to keep him company."

Lu Haole joked.

"Master Xiang..."

The Nine Emperors Uncle smiled awkwardly and said: "The Prime Minister is joking, I am just looking for fun, but don't take it to heart."

"Hahaha... no way..."

Lu Hao smiled again.

The two chatted over wine again and drank happily.

After Uncle Nine Emperors left, Lu Hao was almost done drinking.

Situ Tianyin walked in slowly, supported him, went upstairs and threw him on his couch.

This is her temporary resting place. The decoration is warm and simple, and it has a bit of girlish feeling.

"Master Prime Minister, you are drunk, please rest here first."

Situ Tianyin pulled the quilt and covered him.
