Seeing that it was getting late, Rong Changan said to Yan Li: "Your Majesty, it's meal time, and my concubine is going to order the imperial chef to prepare it."
"Your majesty and empress, the villain has already prepared a dinner at the house. If the emperor and the queen don't dislike it, how about going back to the house with the villain?" Chu Lin is now eager to curry favor with Yan Li and Rong Changan, even if he wipes their ass. .
Yan Li didn't want to disturb the people: "I can just eat in the Guandi Temple, and I don't need to go to Chu Yuanwai's house."
Chu Lin looked at Rong Changan: "Queen, what do you think?"
Rong Chang'an said: "Your Majesty, it's rare that members of Chu Lin show such filial piety, why don't we go to his house for dinner."
Yan Li: "This..."
Chu Lin hurriedly took a step forward, as if he wanted to lick Yan Li's shoes: "Your Majesty, Empress, rest at my place after dinner tonight. My place is very spacious, even if you sleep thousands of people, it's okay .”
Rong Chang'an followed suit: "Your Majesty, the Guandi Temple is also spacious, but the facilities are simple, how about going to the mansion outside Chu Yuan and resting overnight?"
Yan Li really wanted to know what Rong Changan wanted to do, so he agreed: "Since the queen has spoken, there is no reason for me not to go. Eunuch Lu, send a message to everyone to go to the Chu member's mansion to have dinner and rest at night!"
After hearing this, Chu Lin was naturally very happy: "Thank you, Your Majesty and Empress, for the honor!" Not to mention whether Chu Lin could curry favor with Yan Li and Rong Chang'an, and find a job as an official, even if he said it, he also had a superficial feeling. brilliance.
Eunuch Lu went away for a while, and came back to report: "Your Majesty, Empress, I have been looking everywhere, but I can't find Concubine Zixuan and Concubine Ziyan."
Yan Li looked at Rong Changan: "Where can they go?"
That woman Ziyan is so scheming, even if she meets a thief, she can't be hurt. Zixuan is with her, there must be nothing wrong.
"They must be playful and went out, and asked Lin Hai to send a few people out to look for it. It must be not far away."
Just as Yan Li was about to tell Lin Hai, the sound of laughing and talking came from outside Guandi Temple. Rong Changan pouted:
"Aren't they here?"
Rong Chang'an and Yan Li walked outside the side hall, Zixuan and Ziyan saw them and hurriedly bowed to salute.
"The concubine Zixuan kowtowed to the emperor and queen!"
"The concubine Ziyan kowtows to the emperor!"
Seeing the two of them happy, Yan Li was curious: "Where did you go just now, why couldn't Eunuch Lu see you?"
Zixuan was afraid of being scolded, so she didn't dare to speak up. Ziyan noodles are full of spring, smiling.
"Your Majesty, after we went ashore, we saw the grass growing and warblers flying. We were so relaxed and happy, and we were fascinated by the beautiful scenery in the rain! So we couldn't help but walk around, and walked to a country hotel when we didn't want to leave. Zixuan and I were caught by the boat on the boat. I suffered from vomiting and diarrhea, and I was hungry, so I went to the hotel to have a meal. I was delayed for some time, and I hope the emperor will forgive me."
Yan Li didn't want to blame, seeing them happy, he also smiled: "Shicai, I should go to the shore with you for a walk." Turning to look at Rong Chang'an regretfully, "If we see that hotel, we Just go in and have a drink or two."
Rong Chang'an covered his mouth and smiled: "As far as the emperor can drink, you can get drunk after two glasses! Getting drunk in the village shop will be a good story."
Yan Li felt a little embarrassed: "Zhen... I can't drink that badly!"
Rong Changan said loudly: "It's far away!" Smiling, seeing Zixuan holding a green lotus pod in his hand, he pointed to it and asked, "Is there a lotus pod for sale in the hotel?"
Seeing that Rong Changan was paying attention, Zixuan handed the lotus pod to her: "Queen, this is given to me by a little girl, and I don't need a penny. I ate a few, it's delicious! The queen wants to try it too."
Although Rong Changan has a masculinity, he is still a daughter, and he also has the delicate feelings of a daughter, and he is also very interested in those wild flowers and fruits. So I picked two lotus seeds to eat, sweet and crispy, so delicious!
"I forgot that now is the time when the lotus seeds in the south of the Yangtze River are harvested. If I can buy a few flowers from the villagers and bring them back to the palace, that would be great!"
Yan Li felt sorry for Chang'an: "What's so difficult about this! Eunuch Lu, go buy an extra lotus pod from the folks tomorrow and bring it back to the palace. Remember, you must give the money and don't take it by force!"
This was the time when Chu Lin was flattering, and he squeezed out a smiling face in the crowd: "The emperor and queen, this matter is left to the villain! The villain will send you a boatload of lotus pods tomorrow."
Yan Li asked: "Besides members of Chu, do you own lotus fields?"
Chu Lin blinked his eyes: "Yes, yes! I have planted hundreds of acres of lotus fields, crowded side by side, stretching as far as the eye can see. Even if the emperor and queen eat them all year round, they can't finish them."
Rong Changan knew that Tianchi Kingdom was a country on horseback. Before Zixuan came to Dajing Kingdom, he had never eaten lotus seeds, so he said with a smile: "Then I will have to trouble Chu! When I get back to the palace, I will give it to Concubine Zixuan personally." Make lotus seed soup!"
Zi Yan's sharp eyes saw Chu Fei'er who was hiding behind Chu Lin, she was so beautiful that people were suffocating, so her eyes turned red, and she pointed to her and asked:
"Is this beauty from our palace? Why haven't I seen it before?"
When Chu Lin saw Ziyan say "beauty", he was happy: "Hehe, this is my daughter Feier. Feier, quickly call Ziyan Zixuan Noble Concubine!"
Chu Fei'er lightly moved her lotus steps, walked gracefully in front of Chu Lin, and bowed to salute: "The little girl, Chu Fei'er, kowtowed to Ziyan and Zixuan, two concubines."
Zi Yan saw that she was as beautiful as a fairy, and her movements and movements were suitable, and her jealousy was overturned. With a smile on his face, he muttered in his heart: This Chu Lin must have brought his daughter to attract Yan Li's attention; if Rong Chang'an agrees to her entering the palace, Yan Li will make her a noble concubine, and I will be the only one in the palace. There is no one left!
"Chu Fei'er, what a name! I'm here to see the emperor today, are you going to dance for the emperor?"
Chu Lin bowed and smiled: "Exactly! Exactly! After a while, you go to the little man's house for dinner, and I will let Fei'er and a few of her backup dancers dance for the emperor, queen, and noble concubines!"
Zi Yan's tone was eccentric: "Then I'll have to wait and see!"
When Zixuan saw Fei'er, she also liked her in her heart, and cast a gentle look at her: "It is the soft water and mountain beauty in the south of the Yangtze River that can give birth to a handsome person like Fei'er! Like our Tianchi country, every day we do The wind blows the face, how can there be such a skin that can be broken by blowing bullets! Tsk, tsk, tsk! You really are like water!"
Rong Chang'an was planning to let Chu Fei'er enter the palace so as to continue the imperial lineage for Yan Li, because the more sons the emperor had, the more security he would have. Even if the brothers fight for the throne in the future, the royal family will still be the Yan family's royal family in the end.
Rong Changan was afraid that Zixuan would not be happy to have another competitor, and seeing that she also liked Chu Feier, Rong Changan made up his mind to take Chu Feier into the palace.
"If sister Zixuan has a crush on Fei'er, why not call her a sister."
Rong Changan's words were like a firecracker that exploded among the crowd.
