Chapter 169: A Trip to the Palace

PS: Thanks to *Pirate Luffy* for the pink ticket

When I walked on the road for more than an hour, I saw that I was about to arrive in the capital, and the time was noon.

Chen Yuanheng took his wife and daughter, got off the carriage, and came to a restaurant that was still good. This has been prepared for a long time, and it is warm as soon as you enter the door. Chen Yuanheng went to have dinner with the palace envoy, and Bai took Chen Wenhui to eat together. Men and women are not at the same table, although Chen Wenhui is now also an official of the imperial court, but Chen Wenhui is a girl who has not been out of the cabinet after all, and these etiquettes still have to be observed.

Zhao Chongyi originally wanted to take the opportunity to say a few words to his sweetheart, but he was dragged by Chen Yuanheng to accompany the palace envoy, so he had to look at Chen Wenhui with resentment, Chen Wenhui couldn't help laughing, and while everyone was not paying attention, he squeezed his eyes at Zhao Chongyi, and went into the private room with his mother to eat.

Zhao Chongyi suddenly felt that his body was lighter. His footsteps became light, and he was full of joy and went to entertain the palace envoy with Chen Yuanheng.

Chen Wenhui ate this meal very happily, after all, it was in the capital, although it was a place on the road, but it must be a meal made by the cook transferred by her mother from her own Qinghe Building, which was very delicious, and the furnishings of the house were also very elegant, the fire wall was prosperous, very warm, Chen Wenhui felt very comfortable.

After the meal, everyone did not waste time, and hurriedly got into the carriage and continued to set off to the palace. On the way, Chen Yuanheng and Bai asked Chen Wenhui to take a break, and in order to let Chen Wenhui have a good rest, Chen Yuanheng went to another carriage. In the spacious carriage on Chen Wenhui's side, only Bai and Chen Wenhui were left. Bai helped Chen Wenhui untie her hair and served Chen Wenhui for a good nap. When he was about to arrive at the palace gate, the Bai family was reluctant to call Chen Wenhui up, and dressed Chen Wenhui in the carriage, so that Chen Wenhui appeared at the palace gate with great energy.

As soon as the carriage got off, there was a gentle palace maid Yu'er waiting at the palace gate, and Yu'er smiled and said to the Bai family: "Lord Wenhui has worked hard all the way, right?" The queen mother ordered to carry the county lord Wenhui into the palace in a soft sedan chair. Go directly to the Qinzheng Palace. After a while, the queen also passed. Ask Mrs. Chen to follow, and when you arrive at the Qinzheng Palace, please ask Mrs. Chen to follow the slave maid to the queen's palace and wait. ”

Chen Wenhui couldn't help but praise the queen's aunt in her heart for arranging it really carefully. It was a cold day, though she was wearing boots. Mink fur. But when he walked all the way to the Qinzheng Palace, his feet were frozen cold.

The Bai family had already pulled her daughter to thank Yu'er. Chen Wenhui gave Shuilian a look. Shui Lian hurriedly took advantage of people's inattention, gave Yu'er a purse, and then took a few steps behind. Together with those palace maids, Chen Wenhui and the Bai family got on the soft sedan chair.

The water lotus came prepared. Along the way, quietly to each palace maid who followed. Even those who carried the sedan chair were given red seals. Of course, the content is different.

Chen Wenhui came to the Qinzheng Hall comfortably along the way, and entered the gate. He walked forward without squinting, and when he arrived at the place, he saluted the emperor in a proper manner, and then saluted the queen and the prince. After worshipping all the way, Chen Wenhui really felt that her knees hurt. I secretly thought in my heart, later, I must think of a way, stay at home, now I am a court official, maybe I will go to the court in the future, so I can't kneel my knees every day?

After saluting, Chen Wenhui stood so slim, with a straight posture, eyes and nose and heart.

Liu Yan looked at this girl who had a crush, and I don't know when, she was already a beauty. In the past, people said that their crown princess Chen Wenfeng was the first beauty in the Chen family's generation, but now it seems that Chen Wenfeng is not as beautiful as Chen Wenhui, let alone now, even before.

I saw Chen Wenhui wearing a rose-purple sleeved robe, slightly revealing the silver and red jacket inside, with a double-ring bun on her head, looking fluttering like a fairy, with two goldfinches with red gold beads, and flowers with large gems on her temples, which looked very noble. On the ears were a pair of glittering opals, like two eyes, flickering.

How could Chen Wenhui's skin be so good, like white jade, with two big eyes, shining with wisdom and confidence. These are not available in ordinary girls' homes, such a radiant place, where Chen Wenhui appears, is full of vitality and sunshine.

Before the emperor could speak, the queen had already smiled and said, "It's all a family, the emperor, let's give Wen Hui a seat." The little girl's family traveled thousands of miles, how hard it was. ”

The emperor said in a low voice: "Yes, the county lord of Wenhui has grown into a big girl, what a beauty, it can be seen that this daughter of the Chen family is not only virtuous and capable, but also very beautiful." Especially the Queen. Okay, hurry up and give a seat to Lord Wenhui. Lord Wenhui, you have worked hard in Nanyang in the past few years. When you went to Nanyang, I never imagined that you would achieve such great things. ”

The queen smiled and said, "The emperor is happy with his concubines again?" Where can a concubine be considered a beauty? However, the beauty of our Chen family daughter is really famous. Lord Wen Hui is so beautiful, he compares several sisters to him. ”

The emperor and empress still seem so affectionate. Chen Wenhui listened with interest as the two of them showed affection, and smiled slightly.

The palace maid on the side had already moved a chair for Chen Wenhui. Chen Wenhui thanked her, sat down and said, "The minister deserves the emperor's praise." ”

As she spoke, Chen Wenhui glanced at the emperor and empress lightly. I saw that the emperor's complexion was indeed not very good, and he looked sick. The queen looked very moist and high-spirited.

After watching the queen and the emperor, she carefully looked at the crown prince Liu Yan and found that Liu Yan was looking at her with blazing eyes. Liu Yan still looks miserable and inhumane, but adds a little bit of the majesty of the superior.

Then Chen Wenhui accepted His Majesty's opinion for an hour in the Qinzheng Palace, and the emperor was very curious about the affairs of Nanyang, so he specially asked someone to bring the map over, and asked Chen Wenhui to explain in detail the situation of several cities in Nanyang, as well as the construction of new cities.

Chen Wenhui explained to the emperor one by one.

In the end, although the emperor's interest was still very high, his body could not support it, so he could only end this majesty under the persuasion of the queen. When Chen Wenhui was about to withdraw, the emperor suddenly remembered and asked: "Lord Wenhui hasn't been to the capital for so long, do you want to go to the queen's palace to sit first?" ”

Chen Wenhui replied hurriedly and respectfully: "Naturally, I want to go to the palace of the queen mother to say goodbye." The minister also brought gifts to the emperor and the queen, Princess Huichuan, Imperial Concubine, Imperial Concubine, Concubine Zhao De, and Concubine Chen Shu. ”

The emperor smiled and said, "You also brought me a gift, I want to take a good look, but I don't know what gift you brought to Princess Huichuan?" ”

Chen Wenhui said: "It's some small things, but they are all toys that children like, I hope Princess Huichuan can like it." ”

The emperor was in a good mood and said, "I will go to Huichuan tomorrow to ask whether Huichuan likes it or not." ”

The queen smiled and said: "Wen Hui, this child, is delicate, and she brings us all gifts, and we can't take them for nothing?" Do you want to reward Lord Wenhui with some gifts? ”

The emperor laughed and said, "Reward, reward." ”

Chen Wenhui was busy thanking.

The emperor suddenly asked, "When you go out of the palace, are you going back to Xiao Chen's house?" ”

Chen Wenhui hurriedly said: "The minister wants to go to the princess to say goodbye first, but he hasn't come back for many years, and the minister misses His Royal Highness the princess very much, and he also brought some gifts to the princess." ”

The emperor frowned and said, "Yes, Lord Wen Hui and the crown princess seem to be cousins, right?" ”

Chen Wenhui replied cautiously: "Yes." ”

The emperor asked, "Why do you have a good relationship with the crown princess?" ”

Liu Yan's eyes flashed, and he didn't say anything.

Chen Wenhui said calmly: "After all, they are cousins." ”

The emperor nodded and said, "Yes, it's all from the Chen family." ”

The queen smiled and said, "Our Chen family daughter has always been very united. ”

The emperor nodded, waved his hand, and let Chen Wenhui retreat.

Chen Wenhui came out of the Qinzheng Palace, and a palace maid led Chen Wenhui to the palace of the imperial concubine, and the palace maid said: "The queen mother has explained, the county lord Wenhui has a lot of things, and the road is still hard, so go directly to the palace of the imperial concubine." Mrs. Chen was already waiting there. In order to let the county lord of Wenhui run less, the queen mother has called Chen Guifei, Zhao Defei, and Chen Shufei, and they all went to the palace of the imperial concubine. After a while, the county lord of Wen Hui saw him more, and after inviting An, he could go directly to the prince's East Palace. And the queen mother wants to go to the emperor to settle the emperor to take medicine, so don't wait for her. Another day, the queen will invite the county lord into the palace. ”

Chen Wenhui couldn't help but praise the queen in her heart for really arranging it. I know that I am impatient to socialize, so I braised it in such a pot and ran away from the province. However, since you can call so many mothers to see together, of course you can call the crown princess to come over, but no, I specially asked Chen Wenhui to go on a trip, which is for the civil and military officials. Come to think of it, tomorrow, everyone will know that Chen Wenhui and the crown princess have a deep sisterhood. Those stupid people who want to win over Xiao Chen's family into Bai Liangdi's camp will definitely die down.

However, when I think about it, there is really no way to describe these stupid people. Not to mention the relationship between his own family and the big house, in the face of the family's righteousness, these are secondary, and there is no reason for the people of the Chen family to support the bloodline of the Bai family.

Thinking like this, Chen Wenhui and Shui Lian had already been brought to the palace of the imperial concubine by the palace maid. Chen Wenhui found that the palace maid who led the way became more and more attentive, needless to say, it must be the elusive water lotus who had already given the reward to the palace maid. Chen Wenhui thought in her heart, among these big girls she used, she was still the best trained by her mother herself. (To be continued......)
