Empress
Chen Xihe looked at the emperor's appearance, becoming more and more familiar, especially when he turned his head.
The smug appearance made Chen Xihe's teeth itch.
"You're just scheming, putting me in the open."
Emperor Wen looked at Chen Xi and the words of the Great Rebellion, and his eyes were fierce.
"How dare you say that?"
After saying that, hahahaha laughed.
"Sure enough, I dare to be so lax in front of my emperor now."
Since the time of the weak crown, he ascended to the throne of the emperor, and with his only daughter, set foot on the palace.
At this time, Chen Zongwen, in order to stabilize the imperial power, stood in the highest position, and scattered all his brothers in various places with the reputation of Renjun.
Let the clan develop and recuperate.
But now that he has been presumptuous enough, the Qin family, the Mei family, the Yuwen family, the Nangong family, and the courtiers, large and small, sent the women of the family into the palace by sharing their worries for the king.
One by one, they regarded themselves more and more as national uncles, and began to tremble with the absorbed people's fat and people's ointment.
Chen Xihe was the worst move they played.
Emperor Wen looked at the birds outside the window and touched the branches and leaves with his own hands.
"Ah He, do your own thing, and then the difficulties you face are all the beginning. In your place, to get more, you have to put everyone under your feet. “
Chen Xihe's face changed slightly, looked at his ambition, and responded.
"Yes, Father, don't worry."
---------------------------
"The noble concubine Niangniang, the head of the Qin family, was punished for marrying in the court."
Sitting on the graceful and luxurious Qin Concubine Niangniang, she opened her eyes and got up lazily, without panicking at all.
"What's the worry, the Qin family's mistake is just a small punishment and a big precept, as long as it doesn't affect the status of this palace."
Concubine Qin has been in the palace for a long time, has a child under her knees, and is now ten years old, ranking third among the princes.
"E-niang, I heard that the eldest sister is back. Should I go play with her? ”
Concubine Qin sat up and touched her son's little face, "What are you playing, go and finish today's book review." ”
The third prince hung his head, "Okay, Eniang." ”
Turning his head, he walked towards the desk in the distance.
The maid on one side asked: "Niangniang, now the maidens of other palaces must also visit the eldest princess's residence, especially Concubine Mei, who has already gone with the second prince." “
Concubine Qin threw the jade in her hand onto the table, "What? Concubine Mei is a slut, she managed to marry her niece into my Qin family's sister-in-law, and now she is too greedy. “
"What about the concubines of the other palaces?"
"Concubine Li is now practicing dance and pampering An and the princess. The virtuous concubine Niangniang worshiped the Buddha, and heard that the people in the family came to the capital, waiting to enter the palace to meet her, and the eldest prince also left the palace. “
Concubine Qin's eyebrows were sharp, with a hint of ruthlessness, "Since they want to cling to that woman, I'm not uncommon." When you eat a dumb loss, it's useless to cry again. ”
The maid looked at Niangniang and said unclearly, "Yes, Niangniang." ”
----------------------
After Chen Xihe and the emperor left, the maids at the door had already withdrawn to eat.
"Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, Concubine Mei is here."
"Let them in."
Chen Xihe sat on the main seat, and after Concubine Mei came in, she looked at Chen Xihe on the high seat.
His face changed slightly, but he still saluted each other.
The second prince, who was standing behind Concubine Mei, also took the initiative to step forward: "I've seen the imperial sister." “
Chen Xihe looked at the second prince he brought, and his appearance was somewhat similar to his father, but his appearance was more handsome and handsome, and he was more similar to Mei Jingyun.
"No need to be polite. Take a seat. Qiaole, tea. “
Concubine Mei is extremely beautiful, wearing a pink dress and a matching pearl hairpin, which is particularly gorgeous.
"I heard that Her Royal Highness the eldest princess died nine times and returned to the capital, and the palace is not at ease, so I came to take a look."
Chen Xihe suddenly remembered something, chuckled, and thanked her for her concern.
"I heard that Concubine Mei's family has also arrived in the capital now, but it's a good thing, this princess has met Mei Jingyun in Qian'an County, and then has to return to Beijing for a ceremony, and now it's just right to talk to you verbally, and then the second brother can naturally come."
Concubine Mei looked at Chen Xi and the familiar conversation, and felt a little unbelievable.
After the second prince on one side heard this, the fox looked at Chen Xihe.
"Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, she has really grown up, and her behavior is really different than before. By the way, what about Aunt Joy in your house? Where did it go? ”
After Chen Xihe heard this, his eyes were calm.
"It's just a matter of life and death, and people will grow up. Aunt Joy. ”
At this time, Qiaole had already set the tea on the table.
"Aunt Joy."
Chen Xihe raised his voice, "I'm afraid I've been beheaded now." ”
When Concubine Mei heard this, "Isn't she the old man in your palace?" ”
Qiaole followed Chen Xihe's hint: "Now that she assassinated the eldest princess, she has been ordered to be executed by His Majesty." ”
Chen Xihe rubbed his temples, looking uncomfortable, but he also expressed his attitude.
"Second brother, now that the eldest sister has gone through this tribulation, she has to clear the people around her. As a prince, remember to be careful at all times. ”
The second prince's expression was still the same, looking at Chen Xihe's sincere advice, and he also got up to thank him.
"Thank you, eldest sister, I will go to Beijing for your return gift."
Chen Xihe took the opportunity to say: "In this case, the son of Jingzhong, remember to invite the eldest sister, and this task will be handed over to you." ”
"Yes, Imperial Sister."
After sitting for a while, Chen Xihe went out and asked them to leave first.
At this time, the second prince's face changed, "Eniang, today's eldest princess is simply a complete change, except for her appearance, but it is completely different." “
Concubine Mei sat on the sedan chair and did not panic at all.
"Emperor, who is the eldest princess now? The emperor just admits that he is wrong, so what can you worry about? “
The second prince was still struggling with this matter and began to hesitate.
"If I invite the son of Kyochu in the name of the eldest princess, how will I be able to export."
The second prince's face was ugly, he was the second prince, an alternative to the future throne, how could he do such a thing.
Concubine Mei seems to be weak, but she is still delicate.
After returning to the palace, looking at his disgusted expression, he also made him kneel on the ground.
"What are you proud of right now? You are the second prince, and there is a big prince above, but who else is there besides the eldest princess? “
Concubine Mei changed her gentle appearance and looked at the second prince who was not convinced.
"You must know that in the imperial city, in addition to the emperor, it is the eldest princess who is the most noble. You know? “
The second prince didn't understand, "But Eniang, if the eldest princess is fake." “
Concubine Mei looked at her good-looking, but brainless son, and reached out to slap him.
"Is it true or not, the emperor has the final say, and now I need you to investigate the case as a messenger? Stupidity! “
The second prince bit his lip, "But most of the good sons and daughters in Beijing are friends of their sons, and if they go, they will be ridiculed." “
Concubine Mei looked at him, "Really? If they knew that you were acting for the eldest princess, they would not take the opportunity to laugh at you. “
Her face changed drastically, "If they laugh at you, they are disobeying the orders of the eldest princess, disobeying the orders of the royal family, according to the law, even if they hit the board, they are the lightest, you know?" “
The second prince was shocked, it turned out to be like this. Is his heart too soft?
Concubine Mei asked him to get up and sit on the chair.
"Don't worry, the eldest princess now, you can't afford to mess with it."
-----------------
On the other side, Concubine Xian looked at Yuwen Qinghou after entering Beijing, Yuwen whispered, and was shocked when she heard what her brother had done.
"Amitabha."
She opened her eyes and stroked Yuwen's whispering hand pitifully, "Poor child, there is no marriage contract yet?" “
Yuwen shook his head softly, "Concubine Huixian, I don't want to talk about the marriage contract now, and I will talk about it after a few days." “
Concubine Xian let her go, "Really? Qinghou, if the Yuwen family wants to sit firmly, it will not be easy. “
At this time, Yuwen Qinghou also realized that something was wrong.
He got up, "It's Concubine Xian, now the marquis of Qing came to the capital, in order to ask for the eldest princess's forgiveness, my father and second sister almost killed the eldest princess, if the emperor confesses, I'm afraid that the Yuwen family will be punished." “
At this time, the eldest prince waited quietly on the side, and smiled gently in the face of the Yuwen family's arguments.
"Marquis Qing, why worry, the eldest princess has a direct personality, if she really cares about you, I'm afraid she has already been condemned."
Concubine Xian Niangniang instructed: "Go, take the marquis with you, and go and rest in a whisper." It's time for chanting. “
The eldest prince left with Yuwen Qinghou and Yuwen whispering.
Along the way, Yuwen whispered, looked at the mother, and remembered the comments in the book.
"The virtuous concubine Niangniang, with a dignified appearance, is dedicated to the Buddha, and survives to the end by virtue of having no quarrel with the world."
It seems impossible to be a simple character.
The two siblings looked at each other and knew it.
When the eldest prince went out, he saw the eldest princess strolling around in the distance.
He hesitated to step forward, "I've seen the imperial sister." “
Yuwen Qinghou, Yuwen also took the initiative to salute in a whisper, "I have seen Her Royal Highness the eldest princess." “
At this time, Chen Xihe looked at the eldest prince with a smile, and his face was normal.
"Get up, where are you going?"
The eldest prince took the initiative to say: "Eldest sister, you want to send your cousin, and your cousin leaves." “
Chen Xihe looked at them, "In that case, let them leave with me." I'm going to leave the palace too, so you don't have to go out. “
"Yes, Imperial Sister. Can you give me a ride, I also want to arrange for them to find a suitable place to stay. “
After getting into the carriage, Chen Xihe, "Come up." Nothing, together. “
Yuwen whispered to find the right position, and found that it was more secure to sit next to Chen Xihe, at least not secretly calculating himself.
"Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, I heard that you are going to hold a ceremony to return to Beijing, can our sister and brother take the liberty of asking for an invitation."
Chen Xihe nodded, "Naturally, come over in advance when the time comes, I appreciate the aesthetics of your Yuwen family." In that case, come and take over this business. “
When Yuwenqing Hou heard this, he naturally agreed.
"Yes, eldest princess."
