Chapter 383: A Portrait

Chu Peijin and Jing Yan stayed in the palace until the afternoon before leaving the palace.

What exactly they talked about in the palace is unknown.

However, after Jing Yan returned to the post station, he talked for a long time with Master Li, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and the next day, Xishao's delegation entered the palace to bid farewell to the Emperor of Nanyue!

Chu Peijin has now been named Princess Ziluo of South Vietnam, and successfully moved from the small courtyard to live in the palace, and during the period of marriage, she could only accompany her father and mother to live in the palace!

Chu Peijin took Nian Xue and others to watch Jing Yan's convoy leave above the city tower, although she was a little reluctant, but the joy of the two of them being engaged still made her somewhat comforted!

Not to mention how Chu Peijin was doing in the Nanyue Palace, let's first say that the fourth prince Jing Yan and Master Li, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, took the lead in entering the palace to meet the emperor after returning to Xishao.

The emperor of Xishao listened to Lord Li's description of the grand ceremony of worshipping the gods, and his eyes were quite solemn.

Nanyue has not held a ceremony to worship the gods for many years, he also thought that Nanyue's qi skills would be exhausted, and this time he sent people to watch the ceremony was also reported to find out the purpose of the truth, who would have thought that the ability of the Nanyue goddess was even more powerful than decades ago!

It seems that the original plan may have to be changed again!

However, we need to think carefully about how to deepen relations with South Vietnam......

Master Li said with a dry mouth, and listening to everyone stunned made him feel that although he was tired, it was worth it!

The emperor was silent, but he did not forbid the courtiers to speak, so as soon as Lord Li swallowed his saliva, he saw his colleagues smile at him and said, "Thank you Lord Li!" I didn't expect Master Li to be lucky enough to see the spell art of South Vietnam, and he was really lucky! ”

"Where, where!" Master Li hurriedly responded modestly: "It's all thanks to the emperor's blessing, and the lower officials have such luck!" ”

After speaking, he caught a glimpse of Wu Anhou standing there and couldn't tell what the expression on his face was, his heart moved, he glanced at the four princes who had been calm and calm, and unconsciously smiled and arched his hand towards Wu Anhou, and said, "Congratulations to Master Hou!" ”

Everyone was a little surprised.

"Huh? Lord Hou, is there any happy event in your house? Why don't I know? ”

"Yes, yes!" Someone else said suspiciously: "I waited for the same dynasty as Lord Hou as an official, and I didn't hear about it in Kyoto, why did Master Li get the news as soon as he came back?" Is there something we don't know about? ”

Wu Anhou came back to his senses, stared at Lord Li with a slight condensation, and said, "Lord Li, don't talk nonsense, there is no happy event in this Hou Mansion." ”

Master Li smiled all over his face and said, "Do you remember the abandoned girl you adopted in your house before?" ”

Suddenly mentioned Chu Peijin, and couldn't help but sigh when he knew, wondering if something was wrong, and those who didn't know simply asked a few words quietly.

The emperor was also interested in hearing this, so he asked, "Li Aiqing, didn't I hear that she went to South Vietnam with you to find relatives?" How? Didn't come back with you? ”

Master Li hurriedly turned his head and bowed and said, "If you go back to the emperor, she has already found her biological parents!" Therefore, Weichen said a word of congratulations to Hou Ye. ”

The emperor's brows froze, and his gaze swept over Wu Anhou as if he were nothing.

I heard that the child was adopted by Mrs. Vu An Hou when she was at the border pass, could it be that she was in collusion with someone in South Vietnam? Later, I was worried that the matter would be revealed, so I made a play for him to show to draw a clear line?

The emperor thought too much, and the expression on his face was naturally not so good-looking.

is used to being a courtier, Wu Anhou is naturally also a good hand at observing words and feelings, seeing that the emperor is displeased, his heart is jumping! He subconsciously glanced at Master Li, not knowing whether what he was about to say was going to bring disaster to him or something else, and he felt a little uneasy in his heart!

Sure enough, the emperor asked: "But I don't know who her parents are from South Vietnam?" ”

Master Li glanced at Wu Anhou again, and his heart jumped!

"If you go back to the emperor, Miss Jinyu is now the princess of Ziluo in South Vietnam!"

"What??"

Lord Li's bombshell was thrown out, and everyone in the hall was immediately shocked!

The ministers opened their mouths wide one by one, and their faces were full of disbelief!

The emperor was stunned, and he also felt a little incredible!

"Is Li Aiqing saying that the child adopted by Chu Aiqing back then was the Emperor of Nanyue? How is this possible? ”

He is also the person who is the emperor, not to mention that the palace is very strict with the management of those concubines in the harem, that is, it is not easy to hide from everyone when he is pregnant and gives birth in October. Not to mention that Chu Peijin was already like a child of the full moon when she was hugged back by Mrs. Wu Anhou's maid!

It is too difficult for such a child to be easily stolen from the palace in South Vietnam and sent all the way to Xishao to be thrown away!

Therefore, the emperor doesn't believe it at all!

Wu Anhou's look of shock was heavier than the others!

He only felt that some of the things in his mind that he had forgotten before had become clear again in an instant!

Jin Yu's appearance when she grew up felt a little familiar to him countless times, but he never thought about it carefully, after all, at that time, he never thought that she was not his biological daughter!

It was only at this time that he remembered that when he was at the border, he had obtained a portrait, and Jin Yu looked almost the same as the person on the portrait!

Wu Anhou remembered that when he was at the border, he had caught two South Vietnamese people, and the portrait was obtained from them, but he didn't expect those two people to be tough, and they actually committed suicide by biting the poison pill in their mouth on the day they were caught, so he didn't know who the woman on the portrait was!

Later, he felt that the woman was quite beautiful, so he had selfish intentions and hid the portrait privately!

And then ......

Wu Anhou's heart moved, the portrait seemed to have disappeared a few years ago, and after that, the Xia family seemed to start disliking Chu Peijin......

Thinking of this, Wu Anhou sighed in his heart: The truth turned out to be like this!! I didn't expect that just a portrait would make Xia have such a deep resentment, so much so that he ...... He thought of Chu Peijin's current identity and sighed again!

Seeing that everyone didn't believe it, Master Li looked at the four princes with a smile and said, "Fourth Highness, don't you still have the national letter of the Emperor of Nanyue there, take it out and show it to the emperor!" ”

Several princes were a little surprised, and they all stared at the four princes.

South Vietnam still has a credentials? What the hell is going on?

Kang Wang Jinghong's eyes changed slightly, and he pursed his lips for a while and lowered his eyes to hide the surging color under his eyes!

"Fourth brother, what kind of national letter?" The fifth prince asked curiously.

The fourth prince glanced at Lord Li, and then handed over a piece of things in his hand, and said: "This is written by His Majesty the Emperor of Nanyue, which can prove that what Lord Li said is true!" ”

At first, the emperor didn't understand why the national letter was not handed to him first, and when he finished reading the contents, he couldn't help but glance at Jing Yan with a smile!

"It turned out to be a letter of marriage, the Emperor of Nanyue wants to marry my Xishao, what do you think?"
