The Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery.
Because Jiang Yuanxi left secretly, the atmosphere in the entire mansion dropped a lot.
Chen Xinwan sat at the top, and several daughters-in-law were comforting her on the side.
"Mom, Yuan Xi must have gone out for something important. It's understandable that he didn't leave any news this time." Bai Qingmei advised, then winked at Mo Yuting beside her.
Mo Yuting received it and continued, "Yuan Xi is responsible for the whole world, mother, don't worry."
When Chen Xinwan heard this, the worry between her brows became even more intense.
Only then did Mo Yuting realize that she had said something wrong.
She looked at Xie Nanchu for help.
Xie Nanchu walked to her mother-in-law and said, "Mother, Yuan Xi has a heavy burden on her shoulders, but she never does anything without confidence. She must have left secretly this time because she was afraid that you would worry."
Chen Xinwan's brows relaxed a little: "You said this child," she wanted to scold, but couldn't say it, "Forget it, the child is grown up and has his own ideas."
She turned her head and asked, "Am I meddling too much?"
"How could that be?" Xie Nanchu smiled slightly. Her mother-in-law must be afraid that one day Yuan Xi would never come back.
"Mom, this is Yuan Xi's home. She won't forget us. When Yuan Xi is done with her work and remembers us, she will definitely tell us."
The others nodded.
Chen Xinwan was about to say something when a servant came in hurriedly.
"Madam, His Majesty's imperial edict has arrived."
The whole family hurriedly stood up to greet them.
Seeing the Chen family members kneeling in front of him, the guard coughed guiltily.
He opened the imperial edict and saw the words on it, and suddenly he couldn't read it.
Chen Xinwan waited for a long time, but the person in charge didn't speak.
She raised her head.
The guard stuffed the imperial edict directly into her hands.
"Well, there are still some things in the palace, madam, I'll go take a look first." After saying that, he left without looking back.
And there is always a sense of escape.
Xie Nanchu helped Chen Xinwan up: "Mom, let's see what's said inside."
Chen Xinwan nodded and slowly opened it.
After seeing the crooked words on it, everyone in the Jiang family became uneasy.
Chen Xinwan's hand holding the imperial edict trembled slightly: "Go, call the master back!"
Inside the East Palace.
The emperor and empress sat on the upper throne, with the prince beside them.
"My son, you are old now, it is time to choose a concubine," the queen said with a look of joy, "Today all the girls from various families are here, tell your mother which one you like."
The emperor was in a good mood: "Your mother is right. Now that Yufeng is strong, I hope you can grow old with your beloved."
The prince knew that his father and mother were thinking about him.
In the past, for the sake of the stability of the world, the crown prince and the crown princess had to think carefully.
The fact that he can make this decision now shows how much his father and mother love him.
"Father, Mother, my son doesn't have anyone he likes. It's all up to you."
The emperor and the empress looked at each other.
Queen: "In that case, why not ask them all to come over."
Who knows, maybe we'll hit it off.
The prince nodded: "It's up to you, mother."
It's just a matter of selecting a concubine. As long as she can meet the requirements of my father and mother, it doesn't matter how he feels.
In a blink of an eye, the girls were waiting outside.
They are all daughters of the imperial court officials, and they have a very clever mind. I heard that the Queen is holding a garden exhibition, and the Crown Prince and His Majesty are also attending.
If you think about it carefully, you will naturally know that today is related to the prince.
"Lu'er, please help me check her hair and clothes. Is there anything wrong with them?" Yu Ailian stood outside the door anxiously. She was the next one to be checked.
Lu'er looked at her carefully and said, "Don't worry, Miss."
Yu Ai Lian was immediately dissatisfied and said, "Girl, are you deliberately trying to fool me?"
Lu'er knelt down quickly and said tremblingly: "Young lady is extremely beautiful and charming, there is nothing inappropriate about it."
"Alright, alright, get up!" There are so many people here today, it's not easy to deal with this little bitch.
She reached out her hand and stroked her temples, making sure no one around had seen what had just happened before continuing, "Where's Yu Wenyao?"
The maid trembled and got up: "My lady, the second lady hasn't come yet."
Hearing this, a hint of sarcasm appeared on Yu Ailian's lips.
"Just relying on him, he wants to compete with me for the position of Crown Princess. He is dreaming."
Lu'er bowed her head respectfully and dared not say much.
Jiang Yuanxi trotted all the way to the East Palace.
The young eunuchs in the Eastern Palace knelt down when they saw Jiang Yuanxi.
"I have seen the gods, princess." He hastily changed his words.
Jiang Yuanxi: "Get up, where is the Emperor?"
The young eunuch immediately stood up and said, "Princess, His Majesty is accompanying the Queen in the main hall, and the Crown Prince is also here."
"Are you all here?" Jiang Yuanxi was puzzled. "Is it a festival today?"
The young eunuch shook his head and said, "Today, the Queen Mother invites all the ladies in the court to enjoy the snow in the East Palace."
"ha?"
Jiang Yuanxi looked at the snow on her toes which had not yet blossomed.
It is February now, but the sky is clear. The snow in the garden is still left over from the previous snowfall, and not much has melted left.
Is this all you want to reward me for?
"What is the emperor's plan?"
The young eunuch didn't dare to answer.
"Okay, you go ahead, I'll go there myself."
Jiang Yuanxi waved away the young eunuch and walked towards the main hall alone.
"Miss, are we really not going to take a look?"
Jiang Yuanxi had sharp ears, and when she heard a sudden sound, she hid herself immediately.
Soon, a maid's voice was getting closer and closer. Behind her, a young girl was staring at the dead branches in a daze.
When he saw her, Jiang Yuanxi's little heart started beating again.
