Chen Ying was pondering to herself, and Sun Chaoli had already come to salute: "Your Majesty has just gone down to the court, please come with the slaves." ”

Chen Ying and Pei Shu both put down the teacups, got up and dressed up, and Sun Chaoli led the way and took them to the Xuande Palace.

Emperor Yuanjia came quickly, and when the two of them reached the gate of the palace, they heard the sharp voice of the attendant in the distance.

Everyone stood in the same place and waited, not long after, the honor guard came brilliantly, everyone should kneel and bow to see the ceremony after all things were finished, Emperor Yuanjia should be in the palace first, and the rest then entered.

"Give a seat." Teasing the robe and sitting down behind the imperial case, Emperor Yuan Jia said gently.

As a result, the gold-lacquered pestle made its debut again.

Chen Ying and Pei Shu thanked each other respectfully, but Emperor Yuan Jia was also neat, ordered no one to retreat, and immediately raised his voice and ordered: "Bring people over." ”

He Shun'an personally received the order, taking advantage of this short time, Emperor Yuanjia sat down, picked up the jade cup, swept his eyes towards Chen Ying, and swept away Pei Shu's place in a moment, and a shallow smile floated in his introverted eyes.

"It's a coincidence today, after the case is finished, I happen to have something to do with the third ...... Said to Miss Chen. He smiled, took a sip of tea, and let out a long breath: "The big court meeting is just tired and panicked, you and I will say a word, and the noise will hurt my brain." ”

He raised his hand and pinched the eyebrows of Huizi, put down his hand again, took another sip of tea, and said leisurely: "Pei Shu, if I forget this matter for a while, you have to remind me." ”

Pei Shu stood up with a "snap" and crossed his hands neatly: "Obey." ”

Emperor Yuan Jia was startled, and looked at him with a lamp: "Look at your little potential, I am ashamed of you." Fu smiled again: "That's it, don't sit down and talk yet." ”

Pei Shu smirked "hehe" and sat down grabbing his skull.

Chen Ying also wanted to get up at this time, and Emperor Yuanjia waved his hand: "Sit, sit, let me drink a few sips of tea, you are not allowed to move, I look tired." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Chen Ying bowed down in the seat, raised her head slightly, looked down thirty degrees downward, followed the etiquette in the palace, and said calmly: "The courtiers also have something to report to Your Majesty, and at that time, I will ask Your Majesty to take the time to let the courtiers say a few words." ”

Emperor Yuan Jia drank a cup of tea, put it on the table, picked up a handkerchief embroidered with gold edges to wipe the corners of his lips, and his face was warm: "This is also a coincidence, I have something to say to you, and you also have something to repay me." ”

After a pause, he smiled again: "Speaking of which, I remembered it, what kind of mahjong was mentioned by Yongcheng Hou a few days ago, it is said that it was also your idea?" ”

"Yes, the courtiers are bold, Your Majesty forgives the sins." Chen Ying said.

Even though she doesn't think she has any so-called sin at all, she has to have a good attitude.

Emperor Yuan Jia glanced at her with a smile and shook his head: "You kid, you are really polite to say politely." ”

Chen Ying immediately bowed: "The courtiers know their mistakes." ”

The tone of voice is similar to the previous difference.

Emperor Yuan Jia couldn't help laughing, pointed at her and sighed: "Look at you, it's like this, I don't know what to say about you." ”

He seemed to be in a very good mood, and although he complained, his voice was very loose.

Pei Shu clenched the fist in his sleeve and relaxed slightly.

This was the first time he saw Chen Ying in front of Emperor Yuanjia, and it was exactly the same as what he had often seen.

What was Chen Ying like in the past, and what is it like now.

No wonder Emperor Yuan Jia once said that she "refused to have half a sentence".

This evaluation should be extremely high.

He was thinking to himself when he suddenly heard He Shun'an's voice outside the hall: "Your Majesty, someone has brought it." ”

"Enter." Emperor Yuan Jia opened his lips and spit out a word, still sitting in a square position, half leaning on the back of the chair, his eyes slightly narrowed, and his expression was relaxed.

He Shun'an was in front, two palace people escorted Xiao Zhen behind, and the group stepped forward to see the salute, Xiao Zhen knelt under the hall, and the two palace people were lined up to guard her.

Chen Ying quietly raised her head, and saw that the two palace maids were capable and athletic, and at a glance, she knew that they were Lian Jiazi.

She looked down again.

Xiao Zhen was wearing a half-worn cotton skirt, kneeling with her head down, and from Chen Ying's feet, she could only see her sharp chin, and her complexion was quite white.

Emperor Yuan Jia coughed and swept in the direction of Chen Ying.

Chen Ying immediately understood, got up and stepped forward, first squatted down to Emperor Yuan Jia, said "courtiers trespass", and walked in front of Xiao Zhen.

It is impossible for His Majesty the Emperor to personally interrogate a maid, Chen Ying is here today, firstly, Xiaozhen's situation is special, and secondly, it is also "a courtier who obeys her labor".

"Xiao Zhen, I want to ask you a few questions, please answer them truthfully." Chen Ying said, her voice was very soothing.

Xiao Zhen's body shook slightly, raised his head, and showed his face.

With a pale face, beautiful facial features, and a few red threads in his eyes, it seems that he has not slept well for several nights.

Chen Ying smiled at her, putting on what she thought was the softest expression: "Don't be afraid, this is not a court, just because there is a suspicious case, you are an important witness, so I want to ask you something." ”

Xiao Zhen seemed to be a little stunned, looked up at Chen Ying, and had a look of disbelief on his face, which then turned into surprise.

She blinked vigorously a few times, and finally spoke, and her soft voice was like smoke wafting in the temple:

"Back to this girl, the folk girl is Xiao Zhen, and the girl is ......"

"I'm Chen Ying." Chen Ying said, staring into her eyes.

It was a pair of bright and young eyes, however, the eyes revealed the vicissitudes of life, like an old woman who was about to die.

Chen Ying's answer surprised Xiao Zhen, she subconsciously raised her hand to cover her mouth, her pupils were slightly open, and her eyes seemed to have more vitality.

"You...... You are really the one from Shengjing Maternal and Child Health Hospital...... The owner, Miss Chen? She asked in a trembling voice.

"It's me." Chen Ying smiled and bowed her head, and then signaled in the direction of the imperial case: "You should know, who is sitting on it, right?" ”

Xiao Zhen's body shrank, lowered his head and said, "Yes, the folk girl knows." ”

Since the day she entered the palace, someone told her everything, and she also knew that today was a royal question.

In the past few days, although she refused to let go, she only said that she wanted to talk to Chen Ying face-to-face, but in the bottom of her heart, she was actually very uneasy and scared.

And just now, she heard that everyone around her was called "Your Majesty", and she knew that the person sitting on the throne was the current emperor, and she was even more afraid in her heart, if it weren't for an inexplicable courage to support, she might not even be able to kneel.

At this time, the person she most wanted to see was right in front of her, and she also deliberately pointed out to her the existence of His Majesty the Emperor, and the courage that Xiao Zhen had gathered immediately dissipated.

"Then you should know, you don't have any jokes." The sound of being as clean as water ripples through my ears little by little.

Xiao Zhen's flustered heart was inexplicably calm.

Her verification was just a matter of habit, and Chen Ying was reminding her that since His Majesty the Emperor personally agreed, then it must be the eldest girl Chen she wanted to meet.

No jokes.

These four words are the guarantee and promise of the emperor of the Great Chu Dynasty, and they will never be adulterated.
