Duke An was stunned when he suddenly received the Emperor’s order.

Although the Tian Family was his son-in-law’s family, he still did not have the courage to resist the decree.

This was because the decree said that he needed to bring Qin Huai along.

“Eunuch Xi, did the Tian Family say why they wanted me to bring Huai’er along?” The Duchess smiled and took a brocade bag from her maidservant, calmly stuffing it into the arms of the messenger.

Eunuch Xi did not take it.

He only put his hand in his sleeve and said, “Lord Duke, quickly bring the Young Master over. The Emperor has been tired recently. I’m afraid he doesn’t have much energy to wait.”

This was already a reminder.

It was said that Duke An was a favored minister in front of the Emperor. Who asked one of his daughters to be the current Empress?

Speaking of which, the world still did not know how many daughters Duke An had.

The Empress was one of them. It was said that there were still two left at the border. It was unknown if they were married to the generals at the border or to other countries.

In Wanning City, one of them was married to the Marquis, and the other was said to be a close female friend of King Xiaoyao.

Duke An was a playboy when he was young. It was said that there were two wives and one concubine in his harem.

There were many Madams and Young Masters in the residence. From time to time, they would send a few away and bring a few back. Even Duke An’s servants could not figure out where they came from.

The entire residence did not like to interact with nobles, and they had never seen the children they gave birth to walk around.

No one knew how many children he had.

“Since the Emperor has invited you, don’t dawdle. Go quickly.” The Duchess was also uneasy. At this moment, she could only force a smile and say to the maidservant, “Is the Young Master done washing up? Don’t miss the time to enter the palace.”

It was an hour’s carriage ride from the Duke’s Estate to the Imperial Palace. The Duke and Qin Huai sat opposite each other.

From time to time, he looked at his grandson opposite him.

Previously, the divine doctor had determined that the child would not live past the age of eight. Now, his expression was calm and he looked healthy.

From which angle did he look like he would die early?

“Why aren’t you pretending to be weak anymore?” Duke An couldn’t stand Qin Huai’s expression of an adult, so he teased him.

Qin Huai frowned. “I’m not pretending. What do you mean, Grandpa?”

Duke An snorted. “Everyone in the residence is my subordinate. Who do you think you can fool?”

“Mn.” Qin Huai glanced at Duke An and replied warmly, “I’ll move away as soon as possible.”

This way, he could be fooled.

Duke An immediately choked.

Was this how this Young brat replied?

“Don’t you want to know why the Emperor wants to call you into the palace?”

Qin Huai had been raised in Duke An Manor for eight years, and two to three years of his life was spent on the battlefield. Another year was on the road, but he was ultimately raised by Duke An.

During this period, the Emperor never thought of Qin Huai.

They probably didn’t even know that this person existed.

Today, he was suddenly summoned to the palace. The deeper meaning behind it could not help but make one think too much.

“I don’t know.” Qin Huai was stubborn.

Duke An softened his tone and advised him earnestly, “Don’t be stubborn with me now. It’s best if you explain clearly what has happened recently to attract the attention of the Tian Family. While there’s still some time, we can discuss a countermeasure to avoid chaos.”

This child was even more stubborn than his mother, so he was naturally more stubborn than Duke An.

Duke An suspected that his stubborn personality had been multiplied several times and passed on to Qin Huai.

That was not right. This child’s grandfather was an even more paranoid person.

Could it be that they combined the worst personalities of the two families?

Thinking of this, Duke An gasped.

That would be bad.

At this moment, Eunuch Xi’s voice came from outside. “Duke An, Young Master, please alight. The Emperor has specially arranged for a carriage to lead you into the palace.” A carriage specially used by the Tian Family?

Duke An felt his teeth ache..
