Chapter 200 He tripped!

For someone who can serve as a guard in the imperial study, having sharp ears and eyes is definitely the most basic requirement.

From a great distance, seeing the unusual happy smile on Emperor Xuanwu's face, several guards thought that His Majesty had already known the surprise the two princes had prepared for him, and they immediately kept their mouths shut and straightened their backs.

Emperor Xuanwu did not notice anything unusual. It was impossible for an emperor to always keep his head down and stare at his feet while walking.

He strode towards the imperial study with a refreshed spirit. As he walked, he remembered that there had been no news from Yun Shu for several days, so he casually asked:
"Has Saint Ann been going to the Ministry of Works every day these past two days?"

"I heard that's the case."

Li Dehai followed Emperor Xuanwu in quick, small steps.

Originally, he was staring at Emperor Xuanwu's feet, always on guard against any rocks or other things appearing in front of him.

But perhaps because the imperial study was so close, and thinking that there would be no chance of stumbling blocks in this place, he subconsciously relaxed his vigilance.
In addition, Emperor Xuanwu was talking to him again, so Li Dehai raised his eyes reflexively:

"Your Highness seems to be very concerned about the affairs of the Water Affairs Bureau. It is said that he personally walked on the dam a few days ago..."

Before he could utter the word "circle", his peripheral vision suddenly caught sight of the "small city wall" that was less than a step away from Emperor Xuanwu.
Why is there such a thing at the door of the imperial study?

Who did this?
Are all these guards dead? Are they blind or something?

What if Your Majesty falls?!

In just a moment, all kinds of question marks accompanied by screams almost filled Li Dehai's entire head!
Seeing that Emperor Xuanwu had already taken a step forward, it was too late to just warn him.
Li Dehai was confused, and he kneeled down and rushed forward reflexively.

"His Majesty!"

They watched helplessly as their wise and powerful emperor tripped over an ugly "stone". If Li Dehai had not rushed in to act as a cushion, he would have almost fallen flat on his face.

The eunuchs and guards around were immediately horrified and rushed forward to help Emperor Xuanwu up:
"Your Majesty, are you all right?"

"Call the imperial physician! Hurry up and call the imperial physician!"

"I'm fine!"

Making a fool of oneself in front of so many people would be embarrassing for most people, let alone a person who is the emperor.

After being helped to stand up, Emperor Xuanwu shook off the hand that was holding him and looked at the thing that had just tripped him. His face was frighteningly dark:
"What on earth is going on? Why is there something like this at the door of the imperial study?!"

"Your Majesty's forgiveness!"

Facing the wrath of Emperor Xuanwu, the guards at the door had their backs soaked with sweat.

He was afraid that if he spoke a little slower, Emperor Xuanwu would completely vent his anger, so he hurriedly explained:

"I heard that this was a surprise prepared by Princess Sheng'an and the Sixth Prince for Your Majesty, so I didn't report it to Your Majesty in advance. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me!"

What surprises have your Highnesses prepared?
Is it so cruel to make His Majesty trip?

The eunuchs and guards who were hearing this for the first time couldn't help but secretly take a deep breath, thinking that even if the two princes were favored, this time it would definitely be bad.
Only after Emperor Xuanwu heard this, his angry expression suddenly became strange.

Is this the one that the life choice simulation system said would trip him up?
What's the meaning of that little brat Xiaowu deliberately putting this thing in front of his door to trip him?
and many more,

This is not right. Emperor Xuanwu gritted his teeth:
"You just said that this was a surprise prepared for me by Princess Saint Ann and the Sixth Prince?
Did they say this themselves? "

"This... I don't know!"

The guard who had just changed shifts in the morning was sweating even more:
"When I came here this morning, this thing was already there."

"Tell last night's guard to come over here!"

Emperor Xuanwu flicked his sleeves and walked straight into the imperial study.

Not long after, the guard who was on duty last night was hurriedly brought over.

He had just fallen asleep and was still dazed when he was pulled out of his sleep.

On the way here, I heard a few people talking about it. I learned that His Majesty was tripped up by the "surprise" left by the Sixth Prince yesterday. Now he is furious, and I immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

When he was led into the imperial study, his legs became as soft as noodles, and he knelt down with a plop:
"I humble myself to pay homage to Your Majesty!"

"I heard that the thing outside the door is a surprise prepared for me by Princess Saint Ann and the Sixth Prince?"

Emperor Xuanwu didn't bother to care what the guard was thinking. He went straight to the point and said:

"What happened yesterday? Tell me everything in detail!"

"Back...back to Your Majesty, yesterday..."

Without hiding anything, he told her everything that happened yesterday.
The guard was also frightened:

"When I saw that thing, it was just a soft ball, and I didn't expect it to trip someone... I was negligent, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive me!"

"A soft, sparse mass?"

It was difficult for Emperor Xuanwu. Despite his anger, he could still keenly hear the key points in the other party's words. He slammed the table:
"You said that the thing outside that is harder than stone is actually a loose and soft mass?"

"Your Majesty, I saw it yesterday and it really had nothing to do with the word hard!"

The guard buried his head even harder:
"Your Highness used that thing called 'cement' to build a short section of what looked like a city wall yesterday. But because the 'cement' was too soft, it collapsed a little and became what it is now!"

"..."

That ugly thing outside turned out to be the collapsed city wall?

Emperor Xuanwu paused for a moment, and suddenly understood why that bastard Lao Liu had built such a thing in front of the door of the Imperial Study.

That little bastard actually still holds a grudge against his father!

With a sullen face, he ordered the guard in front of him to go down and receive ten strokes of the board. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He turned around and asked Li Dehai to go to the upper study room in person and bring Yun Chuhuan to him.

Halfway through the class, I was taken to the Imperial Study Room.
Yun Chuhuan was not stupid. He knew that what he did yesterday must have been discovered.

Fortunately, he had been with Yun Shu every day for nearly a year, and had more or less learned from her some tricks on how to deal with his own father. As soon as he entered the room, he started to lie with his eyes open:
"Father, have you seen the surprise that your son and your fifth sister have carefully prepared for you? It's right outside the door!"
