Greetings, Ninth Uncle - Chapter 71

[Chapter 71]

The emperor suddenly appeared in the garden, and everyone was obviously panicked.

Meeting Tianyan is the most honorable and solemn thing. During the palace exam, the palace will prepare emergency relief pills for the older students, lest they get too excited when they see the emperor and faint.

The servants of the Cheng Huo family were in such a state of fainting at the moment.

Not to mention these ordinary slaves, they are the two daughters of Cheng Yujin and Cheng Yumo. The biggest people I have ever met in my life are the princess and the princess. I have never even seen the empress in the palace. The old pedant who sees the palace exam is almost the same.

Although Huo Chang Yuan had met the emperor, they all met with the civil and military officials. Even if he had been questioned by the emperor at the palace banquet before, he was separated by half the palace. It was rare to see him alone and privately like this.

He was also very nervous, and the only calm and calm person present was probably only Cheng Yuanjing.

No matter whether the emperor passed by them or not, whether he saw them or not, the moment they heard the emperor coming, they should bow their heads and salute until all the imperial chariots passed.

After the emperor entered the garden, the eunuch naturally told the situation in the garden long ago.

When the emperor heard someone in the pavilion, he seemed suddenly interested and walked straight towards them.

As the emperor approached, Huo Chang Yuan’s body was obviously tense, and Cheng Yumo’s complexion was even paler.

From the corner of Cheng Yujin’s eyes, he swept to Cheng Yuanjing beside him, and his heart was even more transparent.

The emperor’s trip was simply for Cheng Yuanjing.

The emperor’s every move in the palace was watched by thousands of people, and there was no way to summon Cheng Yuanjing alone.

Accompanying the empress dowager out of the palace, the rules are relaxed, and no one can stop the emperor from visiting the garden.

And the emperor’s whereabouts are not a secret. Anyone who the emperor meets in the garden will be known to everyone.

Cheng Yuanjing still needs to disguise his identity now. It is too conspicuous to meet alone. If it reaches the ears of Empress Dowager Yang and Yang Shoufu, they may doubt Cheng Yuanjing’s identity.

The emperor couldn’t let Cheng Yuanjing take risks, so they all needed a cover up.

Huo Chang Yuan was just right.

His status is neither high nor low, not so low that Mian Sheng is suspected, nor so high that he has an intersection with the Yang family.

Huo Chang Yuan’s title was also taken care of by the emperor. After the emperor encountered him, it was reasonable to stop and ask questions.

Cheng Yujin completely understood, no wonder Cheng Yuanjing and Huo Changyuan walked together, no wonder Huo Changyuan followed Cheng Yuanjing to walk in the garden without saying a few words.

The whereabouts of the garden are open, and it is not surprising to meet anyone.

Cheng Yujin silently sympathized with Huo Changyuan, a fool, who knew nothing of being used as a shield.

Huo Chang Yuan definitely didn’t realize that his whereabouts were being manipulated, and even the timing and place of his walk into the garden were unknowingly influenced by Cheng Yuanjing.

And Cheng Yujin and Cheng Yumo appear here, it is a coincidence, not a coincidence.

Mrs. Cheng also wanted to use the open platform of the garden to let Zhai Yanlin see Cheng Yujin.

Obviously, Mrs. Cheng also knows that Cheng Yujin is very good as a facade. Whether it is a man or a woman, she will only be more satisfied when she sees Cheng Yujin herself.

Mrs. Cheng arranged the meeting by herself. Who knew the timing of Cheng Yujin’s arrival in the garden happened to coincide with the timing arranged by Cheng Yuanjing.

Huo Changyuan and Cheng Yumo were husband and wife, so they would naturally go together after meeting, so Cheng Yujin also booked a time and a place, and became a part of the face saint.

Cheng Yujin sighed silently, her luck today is too mysterious.

Cheng Yumo is Huo Changyuan’s wife, Cheng Yujin is Mrs. Hou’s sister, and Cheng Yuanjing is the ninth uncle of the two. The four of them appear in the garden without being obtrusive and reasonable. They are more disguised than Huo Changyuan alone. better.

This is also the reason why Cheng Yuanjing didn’t stop Huo Changyuan from seeing Cheng Yumo just now.

Everyone bowed their heads and saluted, and when they noticed the emperor approaching, their bodies fell even lower.

When the emperor walked in front of Cheng Yuanjing, Cheng Yujin felt that the emperor’s footsteps stopped obviously.

Cheng Yujin lowered her eyes and stared silently at the gap on the ground, not looking at the golden dragon embroidery pattern with her teeth and claws in front of her.

The eunuch had already arranged another pavilion, and all the Cheng family items were removed and replaced with a set of bright yellow.

The emperor regained his senses in a moment and continued to walk forward.

After he sat down, he said very accommodatingly, “I don’t want to make a lot of noise on this trip, and you don’t have to be restrained, just get up.”

Huo Chang Yuan stood up in awe.

After he stood up, he still lowered his head and did not dare to glance at him casually.

Cheng Yumo’s face turned pale, and she followed Huo Chang Yuan firmly, hiding half of her body behind Huo Chang Yuan.

The emperor looked very easy-going, like a gentle elder, and asked, “I remember you, has the Huo family’s title been established now?”

Huo Changyuan did not expect the emperor to be so kind. After so long, he still remembers the Huo family’s title. .

Huo Chang Yuan was flattered, and said, “Reporting to the sage, the title of the Marquis of Jingyong has been confirmed. I thank the sage for your kindness!” The

emperor smiled and nodded. In fact, he already knew about this matter, and mentioning it now is just a start. That’s it.

Sure enough, as the emperor said, his eyes naturally fell on other people: “These people are your relatives?”

Cheng Yumo was dressed as a newlywed and snuggled up behind Huo Chang Yuan, so it was not difficult to guess her identity.

Huo Chang Yuan felt that the emperor was too easy-going today, and he even asked about his family affairs.

Huo Chang Yuan was frightened and cautiously introduced: “Xie Sheng is concerned, this minister is flattered. This is the wife of the minister, this is…”

Huo Chang Yuan said that he wanted to introduce the remaining people one by one. His palm was bigger than Cheng Yuanjing’s. At that time, Cheng Yuanjing took a step to the side, avoided Huo Changyuan’s instructions, and said with his hands: “Chen Cheng Yuanjing, pay homage to Your Majesty. I wish His Majesty a healthy body and a peaceful world.” The

emperor’s eyes finally fell on Cheng Yuanjing, he heard These two words made my eyes sour, and I almost burst into tears.

Since the eighth year of Jianwu, the father and son had to live on their own, and the emperor had not listened to Cheng Yuanjing for 14 years.

Every year on New Years and birthdays, Cheng Yuanjing would personally write a congratulatory message and send it to the palace by his confidant eunuch.

However, a letter is nothing compared to his son standing in front of him and speaking with his own mouth.

What’s more, for the sake of safety, the emperor burned these letters after reading them, without exception.

At other times of the year, the emperor just misses his deceased wife and eldest son, trying to take it out and look at it again.

The emperor lived in the palace and was surrounded by a large number of internal officials at all times. It was impossible to meet a person in private.

And Cheng Yuanjing’s identity is the ninth son of Yichun Houfu, and there is no reason enough to enter the palace.

The emperor clearly knew where the eldest son was and what he had done recently, but he had not seen it with his own eyes for many years.

The last time he saw the eldest son was in the palace exam in the nineteenth year of Jianwu.

At that time, many new imperial examinations filed in, and Cheng Yuanjing followed in the crowd, bowing his head to greet him.

The father and son did not know each other. It was the first time the father and son met after Cheng Yuanjing was sent to Qingxuan Temple at the age of six.

However, even so, the emperor had to endure his feelings and not show any strangeness.

These people are new imperial examinations, and the emperor should not know them yet.

During the palace exam, the emperor couldn’t bear it any longer and went down to watch the candidates answer the questions in person.

He didn’t dare to stop directly beside Cheng Yuanjing, he could only pretend to be curious, stand beside the examinee next to Cheng Yuanjing, and secretly look at Cheng Yuanjing through his movements.

In a flash of ten years, this child has grown up, his back is straight, tall and handsome, he was sick every day when he was young, but when he grew up, he couldn’t see it at all.

Cheng Yuanjing noticed that the emperor was looking at him, but without looking back, the emperor could only notice that his words were beautiful.

Later, the emperor obeyed Cheng Yuanjing’s intention and sent him to a field for training, but he did not see him for another three years.

This time, in the past 14 years, the father and son have been the closest, and can even be said to be the only time they have met directly.

The emperor heard Cheng Yuanjing’s last sentence, “The Holy Body is healthy, may the world be peaceful”, which was the words in this year’s birthday speech.

He said it at this moment to personally congratulate the emperor on his late birthday.

The emperor was sad and relieved, but when he heard the eldest son say that his name was Cheng Yuanjing, he felt very harsh.

Where is his surname Cheng, let alone Cheng Yuanjing.

He is Li Chengjing, the crown prince of Daqi.

The emperor thought of this and glanced at the other woman. Speaking of the birthday speech, the Cheng family had a lot of trouble this year.

In previous years, the emperor’s congratulatory messages were burnt after reading them, and nothing was preserved. This year, the Cheng family made a new idea, embroidered a fan screen with double-sided embroidery, and sent it in as a birthday gift from the Hou residence.

In this way, the prince can be bypassed, and the emperor can express his love openly and openly, and put things in front of the table and observe them every day, without being forced to destroy them.

Although the Cheng family has done little for many years, they are very obedient and do whatever the palace asks them to do.

At this time, the Cheng family’s lack of progress and lack of presence turned into advantages, which could well cover up Cheng Yuanjing and provide enough time for Cheng Yuanjing to grow up.

This year’s screen is another thing that makes the emperor very satisfied.

Cheng Yujin stood below and listened to the emperor casually ask two questions about the Huo family, and then naturally led the topic to Cheng Yuanjing.

Cheng Yujin couldn’t help sighing in her heart when she heard Cheng Yuanjing say hello to the emperor.

Every family has a difficult scripture to read, and the royal family is not immune.

She was sighing, and vaguely felt that the emperor’s eyes swept over her, Cheng Yujin reacted immediately, and performed the Wanfu ceremony upright and upright: “The eldest daughter of the Marquis of Yichun, the daughter of the county master of Qingfu, please greet Your Majesty.” The

eldest daughter of the Marquis of Yichun , The emperor gradually got a little impression, it seems that the person who embroidered the screen is the eldest granddaughter of the Cheng family.

The emperor called Qu Yujin again, and was surprised in his heart that the Cheng family did not leave, but they did not expect that the girls in their family were well-bred.

How many women the emperor has seen to say goodbye, she is a connoisseur of connoisseurs. Cheng Yujin’s actions just now are more standard than those of the steward aunt who specializes in correcting the manners of concubines and concubines in the palace.

Standard and not rigid, rare.

There is also the double-sided embroidery on the screen. Although it was written by Cheng Yuanjing, it is not easy to embroider the charm on it. The emperor originally thought that the person with the main needle had twenty years of embroidery skills, but he did not expect that he was so young.

The emperor looked at Cheng Yujin more and said, “Get up.”

Cheng Yuanjing and Cheng Yujin stood up together.

Looking at the scene in front of him, the emperor felt inexplicably very emotional. He said, “The last time I saw Huo Chang Yuan, I felt cordial, very similar to the prince I lost in my early years. I didn’t expect to meet again, you are already married.”

Huo Chang Yuan Bowing his

head, he said, “Thank you for your attention. Prince Hongfu Qitian, auspicious people have their own celestial features, and I must be able to find them soon.”

Huo Changyuan originally said something to please, but when he said this, the atmosphere in the pavilion suddenly became a little subtle.

Cheng Yujin lowered her head, thinking that this is true, His Royal Highness, I am afraid that he will be found soon.

Today’s emperor’s “accidental” encounter with the Cheng family is a very important foreshadowing of finding the prince.

The emperor could never tell the world that he knew the whereabouts of the prince for a long time. If the prince was suddenly recognized, there had to be an opportunity that made sense.

However, the emperor seemed to get more and more excited as he talked, and he asked Huo Changyuan enthusiastically, “When did you get married, and how long have you been married?”

Huo Changyuan answered truthfully, “Reporting to Your Majesty, I got married in September this year, and it has been three months now.” The

emperor nodded.

The head, thoughtfully: “It’s been three months, I remember your age is about the same as the prince, only one year older than him. Your marriage age is already too late, if the prince is in the public, you don’t know how to get married now. No.”

In the ears of people who don’t know the truth, the emperor’s words can be said to be full of love for his son. Even if his son has disappeared, he still cares about his son’s well-being and whether he has a wife and children.

It’s a pity that Cheng Yujin unfortunately knew so much. Now that I hear it again, I find it amusing and helpless.

Cheng Yujin secretly looked at Cheng Yuanjing, and sure enough, Cheng Yuanjing’s face was not very good.

Sure enough, parents are the same all over the world, even if people are not in front of them, they can turn around to urge marriage.
