The night was overcast, and only half of the Xuanyue was exposed, and the other side was covered by layers of thick clouds. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

There was no light in the room, and by the gray-white moonlight shining through the window lattice, I could only vaguely see what was inside the house.

Chu Chen was dressed in a black robe and jade belt, standing forever, just standing there, it was an existence that made people look up.

"Mrs. Chu, you're finally here." Through a screen of rosewood incense with hundreds of birds and phoenixes, the woman's voice came eloquently.

Chu Chen's eyes were slightly dim, and he only said a few words: "What are you looking for me?" ”

The woman chuckled: "Mrs. Chu has always been concise and to the point, but I appreciate it very much, if I don't have no choice this time, I won't let Master Taifu take this risk." ”

Chu Chen squinted, and a trace of impatience flashed: "What deal do you want to talk about?" You might as well talk about it. "He is really interested, otherwise he would definitely not leave the palace at this juncture.

In fact, deep down, Chu Chen already knew what the woman behind the screen wanted to say, he just wanted to hear with his own ears what kind of tempting conditions she would propose.

In the woman's position, you can see Chu Chen's silhouette clearly, he is tall and handsome, his temperament is peerless, and the most important thing is that this person is thoughtful, the city is amazing, and he is a rare object of cooperation.

The woman is also a smart person, knowing that since Chu Chen can come in person, it is already the greatest sincerity he can show, and she will not beat around the bush: "The emperor's days are numbered, does Lord Taifu really want to support His Royal Highness the Prince?" You know that the prince is by no means good, he can be suspicious because of a trivial matter, kill the palace maid who is close to him, and wait for him to win the throne one day, the foundation is secure, and the Taifu Ke is in danger. ”

No emperor would like a minister with monstrous power.

Chu Chen's sexy lips raised slightly: "Niangniang is thoughtful, but when the time comes, I Chu Chen will not be happy, and Niangniang is no exception." ”

Once the new emperor is registered, the harem of the old emperor will be emptied, and those who have meritorious labor in childbirth will be considered lucky, and will be named concubines, and there will still be a place in the harem, and those who are unlucky will be sent out of the palace and cut off from home.

Of course, these are the endings under normal circumstances, but if the new emperor is suspicious enough, no concubine who has a son will leave the capital alive, including their sons.

The woman behind the screen continued: "Taifu has amazing talents, no matter who assists him, he can succeed in one fell swoop, Taifu thinks that the newborn prince and His Royal Highness the crown prince who is about to weaken the crown, who is easier to control?" ”

She finally threw out the point.

Chu Chen smiled lightly, and his voice was low: "But what if Niangniang gave birth to not a prince, but a princess?" ”

The woman asked rhetorically: "As long as no one knows, the princess can also become a prince, does Master Taifu think I am right?" "The trick of the tanuki to change the prince has already been played badly in the play, Qiao Ruoxi feels that it is easy to plan this matter, as long as you have the courage, nothing is a problem.

Chu Chen didn't answer, ambitious women are sometimes more lethal than men.

What she said is not unreasonable, assisting the new monarch in infancy, he is really one person above and below ten thousand people, holding heavy power, no one dares to make a mistake.

Qiao Ruoxi didn't hear a response, and said, "Taifu is thinking about what will happen more than ten years later?" She sighed: "No one can say for sure what will happen in the future, but what is in front of Taifu is more than ten years of stable life, don't you want to?" I'm just a woman, I just want a mother and a son to be expensive, and I don't have any interest in listening to politics, so I can rest assured. ”

What she meant was that even if the little emperor wanted to seize power when he grew up, it would be more than ten years later, and it would not be counted for the time being.

Chu Chen said lightly: "Niangniang's kindness, I Chu someone wrote it down, the emperor is still there, and Niangniang has not yet given birth, this matter will be discussed in the future." He didn't say no, he didn't say yes.

However, this result has already made Qiao Ruoxi very satisfied, and Chu Chen can come alone tonight, which is enough to show that he has also moved this mind!

Less leaning, there was no man in the house, Xiao Cui lit the candle, gave Qiao Ruoxi a cloak on the bed, and asked worriedly: "Niangniang, will Mrs. Chu agree to cooperate with us?" ”

Qiao Ruoxi bit off his nails, and his eyes were damaged: "Of course he will, even if Bengong doesn't look for him tonight, he will come to Bengong sooner or later." The ambition of this man..... Not under the main palace. ”

Chu Chen entered the palace before the palace gate, first listened to his subordinates report on the situation of the old emperor, and then asked Ruosu about it, and Wang Pu reported them one by one, including Wen Tianyou's interception in the verandah.

"Master, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just sent someone to invite you, but the subordinates only said that you just returned to the house to greet your wife, and the people from the East Palace also sent a lot of things over." Wang Pu said again.

Chu Chen glanced at the large and small brocade boxes on the table, and sneered: "I, a student, can't wait." ”

Wang Pu asked in a low voice, "Master, are we going to act?" Nearly half of the ministers in the court are on the side of the prince, and some of them are still writing to let the eighth prince return to Beijing, and the prince is also looking forward to your contribution to him. ”

"A group of rabble, the emperor hasn't lost his breath yet, how can it be their turn to peck without permission!" Chu Chen's slender five fingers tapped on the handle of the round chair in turn, making a rhythmic sound: "Have you got the invitation?" ”

Wang Pu was stunned for a moment, then remembered what was going on, and took out a post with red gilt characters from his arms, on which were written four large characters in regular script: Medicine King Competition.

Ruo Su is the descendant of the Zhen family, and he must participate, but now Zhen Jian has evaporated bizarrely, and the banner of Zhen can only be carried by Ruo Su.

The Medicine King Contest is held in Jinling Mansion every seven years, with a large scale and a reputation that resounds.

Chu Chen rubbed the invitation card and chuckled; "The emperor will not be able to die for a while and a half, and there is no peace in the court, so it is best for the Chu family to avoid it at the moment." At this time, wouldn't it be nice to accompany a beautiful woman to enjoy the mountains and rivers?

Rather than making a fortune and breaking the bloodstream, he prefers to watch the fire from the hole, and when those people make a fuss, it is not too late for the Chu family to come forward.

Wang Pu nodded knowingly: "Then the subordinates will go back and prepare, there are less than two months before the Medicine King Competition, and you and the white girl will set off in a few days just in time." ”

Chu Chen closed his eyes and pretended to sleep for a while, before he spit out a word lightly: "Hmm." ”

Wang Pu just now, now he finally understands why the master has put so much effort to make the white girl famous, it turned out to be for this post.

For three days in a row, the old emperor's condition has improved greatly, Ruosu will reduce the dosage of medicine every day, although the old emperor has been able to sit firmly on the dragon chair, but the harem is not entered, even if he goes to the harem, it is limited to listening to music and watching the beauty twist a few dances.

There was no major movement in the East Palace and the Jade Pavilion, as if everything in the palace was calm again.

On this day, Chu Chen took Ruosu to see the old emperor in front of the palace: "The emperor's dragon body is healthy, it is the blessing of my great Chu Li people, I implore the emperor to allow Weichen to take a few months off, Su Su will rush to Jinling one day to participate in the medicine king competition, she is Weichen's fiancée, Weichen really doesn't worry about letting her go alone." ”

After that, Chu Chen's deep eyes glanced at the people around him, his eyes were as deep as the sea, warm and warm, and the old emperor felt that his own dragon eyes were almost dazzling.

Ruo Su had learned of this the day before, so he actively cooperated: "This matter is all started by the people's daughters, Brother Chu temporarily retired to the court for the people's daughters, it is really the fault of the people's daughters, but the prestige of the master must stand, I hope the emperor will be fulfilled." ”

The old emperor rubbed his eyebrows, looked at the golden boy and jade girl in the hall, and the dragon beard trembled three times.

Bai Ruosu just saved his life, even if he didn't reward his deeds, he would never punish her at this time, and Chu Chen was the prince's teacher, and he would definitely shoulder the responsibility of assisting the new monarch in the future, but he was good, but he chose a beautiful woman.

However, the old emperor was not angry at Chu Chen's move, on the contrary, Chu Chen was not in Beijing, but he felt at ease.

The old emperor finally opened his mouth: "Yes!" I remembered that the white girl had a meritorious service in saving the driver, and gave another 200 taels of gold, 500 taels of silver, and 10 horses of cloud brocade. ”

As soon as this matter came, all the ministers who came to the court the next day were confused, and soon everyone found a conversation before and after dinner in a solemn atmosphere.

"At this time, I have the heart to accompany the beauty on a trip, it's just ...... Ay! I don't know what it is, I don't know what it says! ”

"Such a great opportunity, Mrs. Chu really doesn't want to seize it? It's hard to figure out. ”

"How can you choose to take a leave at this juncture? I'm afraid it's something else. ”

Half a life confused

Ruosu: Brother Chu, are you sure you want to travel to Jiangnan together? (10,000 bad premonitions)

Chu Chen handed over a firm look: If you want to travel to Jiangbei, you can do it.

Ruosu: !!

Ministers: Hmph, there must be a conspiracy.

Chu Chen: The official just wants to accompany his daughter-in-law on a trip, so don't make a fuss.
