Chapter 37 Concubine Chen is also going to Mingjing Temple
As for Concubine Chen Guifei, she naturally rushed into Yu's study.
When the Great Chu Emperor saw the mother and daughter, he was very happy: "Wanwan, come to your father's arms soon."
Jinyu hurriedly sent Lu Xingwan over.
"When I came here just now, I met Mr. Le on the road."
"Yes," the Great Chu Emperor teased Lu Xingwan in his arms while talking to Concubine Chen Gui: "She said she was pregnant and came to tell me."
The Great Chu Emperor was so indifferent that Concubine Chen Gui was a little surprised. She immediately asked in confusion: "Your Majesty?"
[Mother couldn't even guess this, she's such a fool! ]
[Father has so many children. Now the eldest and second brothers are both doing well. Why would he care about an unborn child?]
[But my father loves me very much. I think it must be because I brought some rain to the Great Chu Kingdom and he thinks I am a good omen! ]
When the Great Chu Emperor heard Lu Xingwan's thoughts, he was afraid that the child would be sad, so he quickly said, "I think that I am already satisfied with Wanwan."
In the past, due to the busy state affairs, he did not devote much effort to any of his children. Although he spent more time with Wanwan because he could hear her thoughts, over time, he developed a deep affection for her.
"Your Majesty, Lady Le is the daughter of a meritorious official, so you should at least take care of her." Concubine Chen Guifei advised, "I think Your Majesty should make the decision and appoint a royal physician for her, which will show Your Majesty's attention to her."
"Okay, Qingyan has always been the most careful, just give the order."
Seeing that the Emperor of Great Chu didn't seem to care much, Concubine Chen didn't say anything more.
"Your Majesty, I came here for another matter."
Seeing her serious tone, the Great Chu Emperor turned to look at her and asked, "What is it?"
"The prince and his entourage will go to Mingjing Temple tomorrow. I was thinking that Wanwan encountered such a great risk when she was born, and was later assassinated, but she was still safe and sound. Why don't I go with them and pay my respects to Bodhisattva?"
The Emperor of Great Chu saw that she was sincere, but he suddenly became suspicious.
According to Wanwan, she is not from this era. If she shows her face in front of Bodhisattva...
[Wow, mom is awesome. Mom is going to take Wanwan out to play. Mom is the best mom in the world! ]
When the Great Chu Emperor heard Lu Xingwan say this, he immediately became jealous: "That's good. It's boring to stay inside the palace walls all the time. It would be nice to bring more guards and stay there for a few days. It would also be nice to let Wanwan play there for a few days."
Lu Xingwan naturally does not disappoint everyone's expectations.
[Wow, my father is also the best father in the world! ]
Concubine Chen Guifei couldn't help but hold her forehead with her hand: What a clever little girl.
After staying in Yu's study for a while, Wanwan gradually felt sleepy, so Jinyu took her from the arms of the Emperor of Great Chu, and the group said goodbye and left Yu's study.
"You take Wanwan back first. I'm going to go to Concubine Lan's palace." If she was away from the palace for a few days, she still had to report all the affairs of the palace to Concubine Lan.
Therefore, when they set out the next day, there were a few more people from Concubine Chen Gui's palace.
Because they set out early, everyone did not go to say goodbye to the Queen Mother. They just packed some things and left the palace in a mighty procession, heading towards Mingjing Temple.
This was the first time that Concubine Chen Guifei left the palace after entering it, except for returning to Marquis Dingguo's Mansion.
The moment I left the palace, I even felt that the air was a lot fresher.
Lu Xingwan was even happier in the car.
[I can actually go out of the palace to play. I thought I would be trapped in that small square courtyard for the rest of my life. I am so sorry to my mother.]
A small square courtyard.
Concubine Chen chuckled when she heard Lu Xingwan's description of the Imperial Palace. The place that so many people were trying so hard to get into was just a "square little courtyard" in Wanwan's eyes.
I guess she was also so carefree when she was cultivating immortality in the past.
She must be a little girl who is loved by everyone.
The Third Prince, who had been neglected by the Emperor of Great Chu for many days, saw the Crown Prince leave the palace. Then he remembered the letter that was secretly sent to him that day, so he quietly left Changqiu Palace and went there.
The He residence was naturally bustling as well.
Ever since Jinxin came to the mansion that day and said that the Royal Concubine would often invite He Yuyao to the palace in the future, Minister He became more concerned about his daughter. He immediately ordered Lin to make some suitable clothes for He Yuyao. He could not let the He family lose face in the palace.
Although Lin was dissatisfied, she still put on a good show in front of Minister He: "Don't worry, sir. I will ask the tailor shop to come to your house today to measure Yuyao's size, and then take her to buy a few sets of headwear."
After saying that, he looked at He Yuyao as if he was worried: "Yuyao, you are the same. You used to be willful at home, but if you go to the palace, you must be cautious and tolerant."
When Minister He heard this, his face immediately darkened: "You better listen to your mother!"
Lin stood behind Minister He and looked at He Yuyao with a mocking smile, "You want to fight me? I'm afraid you are still a little naive."
He Yuyao ignored him and didn't even say a word.
Hearing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was going to Mingjing Temple, He Yunyao naturally clamored to go with him: "Mother, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is such a great figure, and I heard that His Royal Highness the Second Prince is also going to go. Although the Crown Prince is older now, if my daughter can catch the eye of the Second Prince, wouldn't it be an honor for our family?"
Mrs. Lin always thought that her daughter was still young and had never thought about it in this direction.
"If my daughter can marry the Second Prince as his concubine, then not only the He family, but also my uncle's family will be honored."
Seeing Lin wavering, He Yunyao continued to add fuel to the fire: "Why don't you go and tell father that you are also going to burn some incense for He Yuyao's damned mother, and show the importance of our He family to the royal family. It's impossible for all the royal family members to go, but only He Yuyao from our He family will go!"
Although Lin was shocked by the news that her daughter was going to marry the second prince, she felt that what she said made sense, so she went to find Minister He immediately.
When Minister He heard that Lin was also going to Mingjing Temple, he immediately laughed and said, "I originally thought it was unfair for you to go, but now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is going, we can't leave someone out of the He family. If Madam can go with us, it will show that our He family values you even more."
Lin didn't expect that this incident would make Minister He closer to her.
He immediately began to prepare for his two daughters, but what he prepared for He Yuyao was not as good as what he prepared for He Yunyao.
On the morning of the departure, He Yunyao dressed up carefully. Since she was going to a temple, she chose a bright blue long dress with a waist and a trailing skirt. She wore a sapphire hairpin on her head. However, because she was still young, she seemed to be unable to hold it up, but she still looked cute and lovely.
In comparison, He Yuyao was much more plain. She wore only a white dress with a sash tied lightly around her waist. Her hair was delicately tied behind her head, and she only used a simple white magnolia hairpin.
