Chapter 126 Blue and tender, how old are you now
When Cheng Jin woke up again, it was already the next morning.
Her last memory of last night was that she fell asleep on Chu Chengye's back.
Cheng Jin didn't know whether she slept too soundly or Chu Chengye was too kind, but Chu Chengye didn't wake her up when she arrived at Chunhe Palace.
Cuizhu saw Cheng Jin wake up and hurried over to help her dress up.
"My queen, you are finally awake. The emperor has sent people to call you three times."
Cheng Jin looked at Cuizhu's face in the mirror and asked, "What happened today?"
Cuizhu shook her head, "I have found out clearly, and it's nothing serious. Everything is normal in the front court and the back palace. I guess it's just that the emperor wants to see the queen."
Cheng Jin didn't nod or refute.
Chu Chengye repeatedly asked to go by himself. If it were normal, Chu Chengye would definitely not let him sleep, and it would be fine if he really couldn't wake him up.
But today he sent people to come three times, which means there must be something wrong.
Could it be that Chu Huaian has made some movements, or that Wu Ren has made some new progress.
Cheng Jin didn't delay any longer, and went directly to Jingyang Palace after packing up.
Chu Chengye had been sitting by the table waiting for a long time. When he saw Cheng Jin coming, he subconsciously stood up and approached Cheng Jin, explaining to Cheng Jin: "I didn't mean to disturb your sleep."
Cheng Jin expressed understanding.
However, Chu Chengye said it was a disturbance, but he had already arranged for Wei An to only ask Cheng Jin if she woke up when he went there, and not to urge her, so it was not considered a disturbance.
Chu Chengye said, "I have sent people to inquire about Wu Ren. He is indeed well-known in the local area, but it seems that he is not yet able to help the Fifth Prince."
Cheng Jin nodded, "What is the emperor going to do next?"
She thought so, otherwise she would not have no impression of Wu Ren at all.
But even so, Chu Huaian had already discussed with Qu Wanxin last night to use this Wu Ren, which means that Wu Ren must have some unknown extraordinary qualities.
"Like you said, since Chu Huaian wants to take Wu Ren under his wing, even if he is of no use to me, I will not let Chu Huaian succeed."
"Then the emperor will send someone?"
Chu Chengye raised an eyebrow and looked at Cheng Jin, "There is a chance to leave the palace. Will you go?"
Cheng Jin's eyes suddenly became bright and she stared at Chu Chengye without blinking, "Really?"
Chu Chengye chuckled and stroked Cheng Jin's head, "When have I ever lied to you."
Cheng Jin nodded fiercely, "The emperor's words are of course unchangeable, and he has never lied to me." Cheng
Jin looked outside the door and immediately prepared to go out, "Then let's not delay, let's go now?" As she
spoke, her feet moved like an arrow from a bow, and she rushed out the door.
Chu Chengye helplessly reached out to grab Cheng Jin who was about to go out, and pulled Cheng Jin back with a little force, pulling her to his side.
"You want to go like this?"
Cheng Jin looked down at the brocade clothes on her body, then looked up at the gold ornaments on her head, and shook her head.
It was really not a good idea to go out like this, I was afraid that she would be discovered before she even left the palace.
It would be inconvenient to do anything in this outfit after leaving the palace.
Cheng Jin looked up at Chu Chengye and smiled embarrassedly twice, "Sorry, I'm a little excited."
Chu Chengye raised his hand and tapped Cheng Jin's head lightly, pointing to the inner room, "The clothes are ready for you, go change."
Cheng Jin nodded, quickly went into the inner room to change clothes and came out.
When Cheng Jin came out, Chu Chengye had also changed his clothes without knowing when.
Cheng Jin looked down at her aqua blue brocade dress, then at Chu Chengye's blue robe.
The colors and materials of the clothes were almost the same.
It was the first time that Cheng Jin saw Chu Chengye wearing such a tender color. It seemed that since the first time she met Chu Chengye, he was either wearing a majestic dragon robe or red or ink-colored casual clothes. This was the first time she saw such a bright color.
Cheng Jin walked towards Chu Chengye in small steps, looking him up and down.
Chu Chengye had a stern face, and wearing those colors would make him look
like he was on a high platform, making people feel daunted. The aqua blue color matched Chu Chengye's handsome face, and it didn't seem inconsistent. Instead, it made him look a lot younger.
The more Cheng Jin looked at him, the more she liked him. It was estimated that the current Chu Chengye was someone she wouldn't see in a thousand years, and she had to take a good look at him.
Chu Chengye felt a little uncomfortable with Cheng Jin's straightforward gaze. He just pretended to accidentally make eye contact with Cheng Jin, and quickly turned his head away as if he was afraid of being discovered.
"Why are you looking at me like this?"
Cheng Jin said with a smile, "It's not often that the emperor is like this. I must take a good look."
"What do you mean by that?" Chu Chengye looked at Cheng Jin, his expression seemed a little nervous.
Cheng Jin shook his head and pretended to be deep and said, "I can't explain it, but it's very different."
Chu Chengye's face suddenly became a little ugly.
Cheng Jin didn't say that she liked it, and her hesitant look didn't seem like she liked it.
Chu Chengye's heart, which was still expecting, seemed to be poured with a basin of cold water, and even the beating became slow.
Chu Chengye pretended to be indifferent and said coldly: "What's the difference? I just changed my clothes, and I haven't changed."
"If you don't like it, you are not allowed to say it, just bear with it."
"I didn't say it doesn't look good."
Cheng Jin found Chu Chengye's unfounded words a little funny, so she teased Chu Chengye, "It's just blue and tender, how old are you now?"
Chu Chengye immediately turned around and glared at Cheng Jin fiercely, but the words were stuck in his throat.
"You!"
Is he older?
Chu Chengye is only five years older than Cheng Jin. If it is based on the order of birthdays, he is less than five years old. How can he be older?
He is just in his early twenties.
Cheng Jin actually teased him about his age.
Cheng Jin was quick to notice that Chu Chengye was about to get angry, so she immediately stepped forward and held Chu Chengye's arms, talking nonstop:
"The emperor is not too old, and he is still young."
"The emperor looks very good in this dress, this aqua blue is a very common color, but only the emperor can wear it with such stunning grace."
"It looks good, I love it, please wear it more."
Chu Chengye glanced at Cheng Jin and saw that she was still holding his arms and talking endlessly, her mouth opening and closing and the compliments that came out were never the same, as if she had just used her brain.
Chu Chengye's mood suddenly became much better.
Chu Chengye was particularly pleased with Cheng Jin's words, and a light hum escaped from his throat, pretending to pull Cheng Jin away.
"Slippery tongue."
Cheng Jin quickly tightened her grip on Chu Chengye's arm, making an attitude that she would not let go.
She cried,
"No, no, if the emperor is still angry, I will never let go."
Chu Chengye: "..."
"Then hold me."
