Seeing that Chen Sihao and Zhang Jingxuan were becoming more and more outrageous, Chen Wen couldn't help but hold his forehead, feeling a pain in his head.

At this moment, Chen Wen's cell phone suddenly rang. Butler Qi took a look at the incoming call, his eyes widened immediately, and he quickly handed the phone to Chen Wen: "It's the Ministry of Internal Affairs!"

Chen Wen was a little surprised when he heard this, and smiled bitterly: "I was just about to call them, but I didn't expect them to call me first."

Then he pressed the connect button.

"Old Chen, I'm Ning Qingyuan." A majestic voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hello, Manager Ning."

"According to our intelligence, your grandson Chen Sihao seems to have contracted a strange disease recently, right?"

Chen Wen smiled bitterly when he heard this, and did not hide it: "Yes, I found this matter very strange, and I was just about to report it to the Xia Palace!"

Chen Wen was not surprised that the Ministry of Internal Affairs knew about Chen Sihao. After all, everything in Daxia was under the control of Emperor Xia, especially Kyoto family forces like their Chen family, which were the key monitoring targets of the Xia Palace.

"No need, just take Chen Sihao to the Summer Palace."

After hearing what Ning Qingyuan said, Chen Wen was a little confused. For the sake of family and country, it was his duty to report the unusual things to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but Chen Sihao was his only grandson, and he didn't know what was going on. If he was sent to the Xia Palace, who knew if he could come out safely.

Ning Qingyuan, who was on the other end of the phone, saw that Chen Wen had not said anything for a long time, and reminded him in a deep voice: "This is what Emperor Xia meant."

"Understood, I'll take Sihao to the palace right away."

All under heaven belongs to the king, and the Emperor Xia's will cannot be disobeyed. Chen Wen had no way to refuse, but he still had a little trick. He told Ning Qingyuan that he would bring Chen Sihao into the palace. After all, he would feel much more at ease if he went with Chen Sihao.

Ning Qingyuan did not refuse this.

"Zhang Jingxuan from the Zhang family is also with you, right? Bring him along."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Wen felt a little complicated. He didn't know whether entering the Xia Palace was a blessing or a curse.

When Chen Sihao and Zhang Jingxuan heard that Emperor Xia actually wanted to see them, they were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling. Isn't this like giving you a pillow when you are sleepy?

Seeing this, Chen Wen could only shake his head and smile bitterly, then turned to Butler Qi and ordered, "Old Qi, prepare the car."

…………

Half an hour later, an extended luxury car drove out of the Chen Mansion.

The person sitting in the car was Chen Wen, along with Chen Sihao, Zhang Jingxuan, and Zheng Miao. After all, the matter was of great importance, and Zheng Miao had not yet been cleared of suspicion. Since Emperor Xia wanted to investigate the matter personally, Chen Wen took him along.

Besides, there was only one driver. Chen Wen did not bring any other guards. First, he was going to the Xia Palace after all. Wouldn't it be disrespectful to Emperor Xia if he brought guards? Second, although he was a little older and his legs were a little inconvenient, he was a congenital master after all. He was not afraid of any danger on the road. After all, if he couldn't control himself, what was the point of bringing more guards?

At this time, Chen Wen was carefully checking the contents of Zheng Miao's bag to confirm her identity.

Although the guards of the Chen Mansion had checked before and found that Zheng Miao was just an ordinary housewife, Chen Wen still felt some doubts, so he planned to check Zheng Miao's identity carefully on the way to the Summer Palace to avoid making a fool of himself after entering the Summer Palace.

"Buzz~Buzz~" Zheng Miao's cell phone in the bag suddenly vibrated.

Chen Wen looked at the incoming call and didn't find anything unusual. However, in order to confirm Zheng Miao's identity, he handed the phone to Zheng Miao.

When Zheng Miao saw the caller had a strange expression on his face, he hung up immediately.

Chen Wen narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw this: "What? Is there something shameful? Why don't you answer it?"

"It was just an old friend who asked me to go shopping." Zheng Miao explained. Although she was regarded as a suspect by Chen Wen at this time, she was calm and no longer as frightened as before. Instead, she felt a little excited because she was about to meet Emperor Xia.

After listening to Zheng Miao's explanation, Chen Wen sneered and said in an unquestionable tone: "Call back!"

Zheng Miao wanted to say something, but when he saw Chen Wen's determined look, he could only bite his words back.

"Sister Miao, where are you? The sisters are waiting for you."

"I...I have something urgent to do, so I won't go. Have fun, you guys."

"What? You're not coming? Didn't we sisters agree on this?"

…………

A few minutes later, Chen Wen absentmindedly took back Zheng Miao's phone. At this time, he was still repeatedly pondering the content of the conversation between Zheng Miao and the person on the other end of the phone, trying to figure out whether there was any cryptic language.

"Pfft~! Deputy Palace Master Chen Wen, you are too cautious. I told you, Xiao Zheng is just a kind person I met on the road. She just gave me a ride to your Chen Mansion." Zhang Jingxuan couldn't help laughing.

"A kind-hearted person? The Zhang Mansion is about 50 kilometers away from my Chen Mansion, and it's not on the way there. Which kind-hearted person would take you so far? And even try to take you into my Chen Mansion!" Chen Wen snorted coldly.

"Of course it is profitable! I am the Grand Marshal of Lingxiao Palace, a super powerful person. If I pull out a hair from my body, it will be a great fortune for her." Zhang Jingxuan said as a matter of course.

"Hehe~" Chen Wen smiled bitterly and shook his head. As a normal person, is there any need for him to argue with a fool?

Zheng Miao did not refute Zhang Jingxuan's statement, because she had said many times before that she was forced to do so because of the threats from Zhang Jingxuan, but Chen Wen did not believe it at all.

Moreover, now she only wants to see Emperor Xia. What if Chen Wen thinks that she and Zhang Jingxuan are just casual acquaintances and doesn't take her into the Xia Palace?

…………

There was no conversation along the way. Two hours later, the car passed the security check of the Summer Palace and successfully drove into the palace.

Under the watchful eyes of a group of palace guards, the group got off the car and entered the hall.

Emperor Xia Si Hong sat on the dragon throne in the main hall with a dignified look on his face.

Just as Chen Wen was about to salute, Chen Sihao was quick to support him and said, "Grandpa, you are the deputy hall master of Lingxiao Hall, you have a noble status, how can you salute an ordinary person?"

Zhang Jingxuan held his head high and looked at Si Hong with a squinting eye. "How dare you, mortal, to see me... and the two vice-palace masters, why don't you pay your respects?"
