Chapter 164: Palace Banquet, I Like It for You

"Your Royal Highness, the Queen Mother seems to be a little afraid of the eldest princess." Huo Sijin said to Chu Zheng in a low voice. Although Empress Dowager Yao was very strong on the surface, in fact, her eyes when she looked at the eldest princess of Yi'an invisibly revealed fear.

Chu Zheng explained to her: "The eldest princess of Yi'an was famous when she was young, and she used to have some festivals with the Queen Mother, but the Queen Mother couldn't please her in front of her. ”

Huo Sijin nodded thoughtfully, "I see." The eldest princess of Yi'an is so strong, coupled with the importance of the Luo family to Nanchu, it is no wonder that the Yao family has been demoted, but the Empress Dowager Yao has not made trouble. ”

Empress Dowager Yao maintains her mother's family, this is already something that everyone knows, Huo Sijin thought that the Yao family was cut off, and Empress Dowager Yao would not give up, but she didn't expect Empress Dowager Yao to grit her teeth and accept this fact. This made Huo Sijin a little surprised. After listening to Chu Zheng's explanation just now, Huo Sijin also settled down a little in his heart.

At the same time, she was also glad in her heart, fortunately, the eldest princess of Yi'an was facing Chu Zheng, if it was towards others, it would be a really tricky thing.

Huo Sijin's gaze inadvertently met Luo Qinglan, only to see Luo Qinglan grinning at her, revealing his white and neat teeth.

Most of the women in the capital are subtle and beautiful, so they mostly adhere to the principle of smiling without showing their teeth, only smiling lightly, and stopping at the point, rarely like Luo Qinglan. However, Huo Sijin felt that Luo Qinglan's smile was extremely beautiful, hearty and bright, not cowardly, giving people a very comfortable feeling.

Coupled with getting along with Luo Qinglan in the past few days, Huo Sijin has a very good impression of her. This girl, although she is the daughter of a family of military generals, does not have the slightest vulgarity, but has a hearty and lively temperament and a generous and decent manners.

Huo Sijin also returned with a kind smile, and couldn't help but think in his heart, if Luo Qinglan could become the crown princess, he would definitely be Chu Zheng's virtuous helper.

Thinking of this, Huo Sijin quietly looked at Chu Zheng: Such a good girl, does His Royal Highness really not like it?

"Say whatever you want to say directly, don't hide it in your heart." As he spoke, Chu Zheng turned his head to look at her.

His beautiful phoenix eyes collided in her eyes, and Huo Sijin was a little at a loss for a while. There is no other reason, just because his eyes are clear, not as sharp as usual, but mixed with a trace of warmth.

Such a look appeared in Chu Zheng's eyes, which really surprised Huo Sijin. At the same time, she was a little weak-hearted. In all fairness, Chu Zheng is very good to her, far more than the Lord is good to the strategist, Huo Sijin can feel that Chu Zheng treats her as a confidant, as a friend, giving her unparalleled trust, and meticulous care.

If Chu Zheng is only the Lord, she is a strategist, but whatever is beneficial to the Lord, she can naturally speak out boldly. But Chu Zheng regarded her as a friend, as a friend, Chu Zheng clearly said that he had no intention of Luo Qinglan, and asked her not to mention it again, if she said this matter again, it would be a bit excessive.

Huo Sijin hesitated for a moment, but didn't say anything after all. Chu Zheng was so good to her, how could she say these things that she knew he didn't like to hear?

Huo Sijin smiled at Chu Zheng, pointed to the dim sum in Chu Zheng's hand, and said, "Your Highness, Changjin is just thinking, can you bring some back this dim sum?" ”

Chu Zheng looked at the dim sum that Huo Sijin pointed to, "Do you like it?" ”

Huo Sijin nodded, "Is it okay?" ”

Chu Zheng pushed the dim sum plate in front of Huo Sijin, "If you like it, give it to you." If it is not enough, the main palace will send the imperial chef who makes dim sum to the East Palace. ”

Hearing this, Huo Sijin was stunned, and looked at Chu Zheng with a pair of apricot eyes, would His Highness be a little too good to her......

Seeing her react like this, Chu Zheng also knew that he had gone a little too far, and hurriedly walked over, "It's just a plate of dim sum, this palace won't wronged its own strategists in eating." ”

Huo Sijin came back to his senses at this time, yes, it's just a trivial matter, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is generous, what is she surprised about.

So, she hurriedly smiled and thanked her, "Thank you, Your Highness, but these are enough, you don't need to take the imperial kitchen to the East Palace." She casually said that she changed the topic, but if she had to leave the imperial kitchen, it would make her cry and laugh.

Chu Zheng frowned, "Don't you like it?" ”

Then he said: "If you really like it, it's just an imperial chef, this palace is the prince, and if you want to pass, you will have to pass, no one dares to say no, and no one dares to make a big fuss." ”

"No, no, no." Huo Sijin shook his head again and again and waved his hand, "Your Highness misunderstood, although Changjin likes to eat, but if you eat too much, I'm afraid you will get tired of it." ”

Chu Zheng could understand it, so he gave up......

Chu Yu, who was sitting opposite, couldn't help frowning when he saw the behavior of the two of them. Chu Zheng's Huo Sijin's demeanor was not abnormal, but Chu Yu always remembered the look he had seen before, and the strange appearance lingered in his heart.

Are they too close?

He had a strong suspicion, but Chu Yu didn't dare to say it to others, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had a close relationship with the long history around him, and if this was spread, I don't know how much trouble it would make.

Chu Yu hurriedly took a sip of wine, and kept silently reciting in his heart: I didn't see anything, I don't know anything......

Concubine Lin noticed her son's strange appearance, and couldn't help frowning, "What's wrong with Yu'er, why is this kid so unwilling?" ”

Chao Langqiu instructed: "You go and look at Dian Yu'er, don't let him lose his temper." ”

"Yes, sissy." Lang Qiu nodded in response.

Chu Yu noticed footsteps behind him, and hurriedly looked back, "Lane Qiu?" Aren't you serving by your mother's side? Why did you get here? "Lang Qiu is Lin Guifei's personal palace maid, and if she has nothing to do, she will not leave Lin Guifei's side for half a step.

Lang Qiu replied: "Niangniang saw that His Highness looked bad, so she asked the slave maid to come over and serve His Highness." ”

Chu Yu instantly understood what Lin Guifei meant, obviously he was noticed by Lin Guifei in a strange way. Concubine Lin noticed that it was okay, if she noticed something else, it would not be good.

Therefore, Chu Yu hurriedly said: "There is a panic in this hall, it just so happens that you are here, go out for a walk with the main hall." ”

But don't let Lang Qiu notice the movement on the other side.

Lang Qiu didn't think much about it, so he left with Chu Yu.

Lin Guifei watched Chu Yu walk out of the main hall, her brows furrowed even tighter, what happened to her son today? It's all over the place.

Outside the hall, Lang Qiu saw that Chu Yu seemed to look unsatisfactory, and even looked a little worried, and remembered Lin Guifei's instructions, she asked tentatively: "Your Highness, do you have something on your mind?" Is it because the concubine Niangniang is in charge of the harem? ”

Hearing this, Chu Yu's brows suddenly furrowed, when did this happen? He is low-key, and he will not take the initiative to inquire about anything, so he has not heard of the emperor's order to Concubine Lin and Concubine Huo Xian to assist in the affairs of the harem.

Seeing Chu Yu frowning, Lang Qiu thought that she was right, and she persuaded: "Your Highness, Niangniang is also a last resort. In the harem, if you want to live safely, you must rely on it. Niangniang is not as good as the queen and concubine Xian, she has a powerful mother's family, and the only thing she can rely on is herself and Her Royal Highness. ”

"I don't want to fight for anything, I can't get in anyone's way." Chu Yu didn't think so, he didn't want to fight for the throne, unless the new emperor in the future was a big devil who killed people without blinking, he wouldn't move him. Nanchu re-honors reputation, an emperor who killed all his brothers before ascending to the throne will be criticized, and he will not leave a good reputation in the history book in the future.

"Your Highness, you may not know that in fact, Niangniang seems to be living a stable life, but in fact, Niangniang's life has not been easy these years." Lang Qiu persuaded again, "The queen often finds trouble with her mother, and there are countless scheming concubines in the harem, but it is because the mother is careful to guard against it, so she does not let people succeed." ”

Hearing this, Chu Yu frowned, "Is there such a thing?" ”

Lang Qiu nodded, "Niangniang wants His Highness to live carefree, so she never says this to His Highness." But please believe that Your Highness is not lying, if you don't believe it, you can pay careful attention to whether what the slave and maid are telling is false, you can see at a glance. ”

Not to mention anything else, Queen Yao is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Now that Concubine Lin has won the right to assist in the harem, Queen Yao will not give up.
