Chapter 313: The Emperor Arrives at King Chen's Mansion
On the third day after the banquet, King Chen and Jiang Tian packed their bags and went to the border with their entourage. The border pass is not as prosperous as Cloud City, and the border pass is bitterly cold, Chu Lixue and Xiyue are naturally reluctant to let their husbands suffer there.
"Sister-in-law, what do you think the emperor wants to do? Now that the border is peaceful, and the generals guarding the border are all famous generals, why did the emperor do this? ”
"Since the two of them repelled the Dongyu and Yuexi armies, he was worried that they would be crowned with great merit, and as for letting us enter the palace to be taken care of, it was nothing more than wanting to be hostages. The king of Dingnan has no family and is alone, if he is placed at the border, the emperor will have no chips to clamp, but will stay by his side, staring at it all the time, so that he can rest assured. ”
"It's really a villain's heart, I already knew that he had to come to this throne in the first place, otherwise why would he be so afraid of being snatched away." Xiyue said indignantly.
"Shhhhh......hhhh
Although it is in her own mansion, it is inevitable that there are ears on the wall, Chu Lixue believes that although King Jing is late, but after all, Jiang is still old and spicy, over the years, she and King Chen have been working hard to clear the fine work in the house, but there will still be news to be revealed, she believes that now the fine work in the house has the ability to counter-reconnaissance, and before finding him, you still have to be careful if you say anything in this house.
"What? Am I not right? Xiyue wondered.
"You girl, I just praised you for being mature and stable a few days ago, and this is exposed again." Chu Lixue diverted the topic.
"Oh, I'm a lively person, and it's really uncomfortable to want me to follow the rules. It's just, why are you ......?"
Before Xiyue finished speaking, Chu Lixue hurriedly took a piece of pastry and stuffed it into her mouth, and then said softly: "The wall has ears." Xiyue understood what Chu Lixue meant, but it was really aggrieved that she couldn't speak freely in her own home.
"By the way, my third brother is coming back, he hasn't been in Cloud City all these years, and even I can't get married to Jiang Tiancheng, and when he comes back, I must slaughter him." Xiyue said with a smile.
Hearing this, Chu Lixue is really envious of Xiyue, in modern life, although she also has an elder brother, it is limited to a cousin or cousin. If you have an older brother who grew up together, it feels different.
After crossing here, she could have enjoyed her brother's favor, but because of the selfishness of the Bai family, she couldn't get together even if she had a family.
"Xiyue, why did you think of coming to stay with me? Although it was just a proposal at the beginning, you don't have to do it really, there are many things that you need to do in the Guogong Mansion. ”
"Am I not worried that someone will be bad for you? Moreover, Jiang Tian and my father want me to come here to live and protect you. Xiyue picked up the snack and took a bite lightly.
It seems that King Ning and Jiang Tian are thinking too much, she is now in her own home, is it possible that the emperor can still come to live in the palace, besides, she has already warned Moon Shadow, and it will not be stupid to let the emperor come to live in King Chen's mansion if she wants to come to Moon Shadow.
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard a eunuch singing loudly outside the door: "The emperor has arrived." ”
The emperor has arrived? Chu Lixue was slightly stunned, what was this emperor going to do when he came to Chenwangfu? Could it be that he really dared to risk the world's condemnation?
Chu Lixue really didn't have time to think about it, she had to go out to greet her right now, otherwise it would be very troublesome to treat her for a big disrespectful crime. King Chen is not at home, and more than 100 lives in this mansion are all tied to her alone, she must protect these people in King Chen's mansion.
When Chu Lixue came to the courtyard with Xiyue, the emperor had already walked in on his own.
"Courtiers see the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor." Chu Lixue and Xiyue knelt on the ground and said in unison.
Hearing this, the emperor hooked his lips and smiled, and stepped forward to help Chu Lixue up, "In front of me, you are not allowed to call yourself a courtier, you and I know each other, this is before King Chen, if I had seen you first, I would never have let you marry King Chen." Now that King Chen is far away on the border of Dongyu, I am worried that you will be lonely, so I have come to see you. ”
"Your Majesty, you don't have to worry, I have already lived in King Chen's Mansion, and Jiang Tian is not at home anyway, I happen to be here with the princess and sister-in-law." Xiyue interrupted.
Being interrupted by Xi Yue like this, the emperor was very unhappy, but he really couldn't find an excuse to be angry, and sent Jiang Tian out just to use Xi Yue as a hostage to blackmail Jiang Tian to re-stand in line, but he didn't expect that his move would actually connect King Chen's Mansion and Jiang Guogong's Mansion more closely.
"Xiyue, don't you need to manage the Jiang Guogong Mansion? I heard that your third brother is coming back, won't you prepare for the Ning Palace? The Emperor said angrily.
"There is my father and king in King Ning's mansion, as well as the eldest brother and second brother. As for the Jiang Guogong Mansion, isn't there still a father? Xiyue said lightly.
Xiyue's words made the emperor unable to refute, originally he wanted to say that the affairs in the palace are all managed by women, I am afraid that this Xiyue will say that Ning Wangfu has her mother and two sisters-in-law, and the emperor does not want to humiliate himself.
"Lixue, I also plan to live in King Chen's Mansion for a few days, you can arrange my residence." After speaking, the emperor sat down at the stone table in the courtyard.
Seeing this, Chu Lixue rolled her eyes, this emperor wanted to come here to live, Chu Lixue didn't believe that he was just here to live, there must be other purposes.
But the other party is the emperor, and if he wants to live in the courtier's house, the courtier has absolutely no reason to drive him out, but the emperor took advantage of the prince's absence and ran to live in someone's house.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to live here." Xiyue said lightly.
"Not suitable? What's out of place? You can live here, why can't I? I also care about Princess Chen. ”
"Your Majesty, your concern will ruin the reputation of the princess and sister-in-law." Xiyue said angrily.
"I see who dares to talk nonsense, if King Chen comes back and minds, then you will be my imperial concubine, wouldn't it be better." The Emperor smirked.
Xiyue glared at the emperor fiercely, knowing that he was uneasy and kind to come here, what the hell was she going to do to get this guy to leave?
That night, Chu Lixue was just lying on the bed reading after bathing, when she heard someone knocking on the door, and Rean Xue stepped forward to open the door, "Your Majesty?" It's so late, my princess is going to rest, please talk about it tomorrow. ”
"Lixue, she's rested?" The Emperor said softly.
He knew that this servant girl who was keeping vigil was good at martial arts, and if she broke in, she might not be able to please her. It's just that it's a bit of a loss to let go of such a good opportunity like this.
"Yes, Your Majesty, please go back." Remnant Xue said coldly.
Hearing this, the emperor turned around and left, but he did not go back to the courtyard where he lived, but walked towards the Evian Garden where King Chen was, his mother said that his father gave the treasure map to King Chen, as long as he had a treasure map, then he was not afraid of anything.
Thinking of this, the emperor quickened his pace, but when he came to the door of Evian Garden, he was blocked by the guards.
"Your Majesty, no one can enter this Evian Garden without the order of the prince." The guard guarding the door said respectfully.
"The whole world is not the king's land, I can go wherever I want, you dare to stop it, believe it or not, I will punish your nine clans?" The emperor said coldly.
If others heard this, they would probably have been so frightened that they would have knelt down and begged for mercy, but these guards in King Chen's mansion were all personally selected and trained by King Chen, and they only listened to King Chen's orders alone, and the rest of the people, even if they were emperors, would not give in at all.
"You are the emperor, you can do whatever you want, but I am the guard of King Chen's mansion, and I only obey the orders of King Chen." The guard said coldly.
No one has ever dared to talk to the emperor like this, but the people of this Chenwang Mansion, even a little guard and maidservant don't take him seriously, it seems that the queen mother is right, this Chenwang Mansion does have the intention of rebellion.
If he couldn't enter Evian Garden, he naturally had no way to find out the whereabouts of the treasure map, and it seemed that if he wanted to get what he wanted, he still needed to plan well.
After the emperor left Evian Garden, Chu Lixue walked out of the shadows with the remnant snow, looking at the back of the emperor leaving, Chu Lixue said lightly: "Sure enough, the purpose of his coming to Chenwangfu is not so simple. ”
"Princess, then tomorrow the slave and maid will throw him out, otherwise your reputation will be ruined if you stay in the mansion for a few days." Remnant Snow puffed up.
As long as she remembered the emperor's squinting appearance just now, Rean Xue wanted to beat him hard, but unfortunately such a thing can't come openly, yes, it can't come openly, it can be dark.
Thinking of this, Rean Xue already had a calculation in her heart, when it came to the ability to rectify people, who could compare to their lord Ye Wushuang. What's more, this emperor also hit the princess with all his crooked ideas, if this is known to the lord, I am afraid that the emperor's life will be very sad.
The Emperor returned to the courtyard where he lived, and summoned the guards around him, these people were all highly trained, and if he was allowed to sneak into the study at night, he might be able to help him find what he wanted, but he could not tell the guards the specifics, because no one would be tempted by the treasure map of the rich country.
When he came to King Chen's study, when his hands just touched the door frame, he suddenly felt some tingling pain in his hands, and immediately lost consciousness and fainted.
The guards of the palace looked at the guards lying on the ground, kicked them with their feet, and said: "I still want to break into the prince's study with this ability, our princess has already taken precautions, just waiting for you to take the bait." ”
"Hmph, I'm afraid he didn't expect that the princess deliberately let us let him in. Otherwise, who will keep the poison on the door frame for? The other guard laughed.
