Chapter 435 Promise

Every change of dynasty in Chinese history is accompanied by endless pain and hardship. The cruelty of history is often reflected in the text, such as "Every son eats each other" and "slaughter of the city". There are many assumptions about the Ming Dynasty, such as the absence of the Qing Dynasty's entry into the pass, whether the Ming Dynasty could embark on the road of capitalism in a peaceful environment, etc.

No matter what, the Ming Dynasty needed change. How to change? This topic is too big. Chen Xie used a stupid method, which was to cultivate a new class. When the power of this class reaches a certain level, quantitative change will lead to qualitative change. Perhaps only this method can fundamentally change a unified country.

On the fifth day of the fifth month, Chen Xie caught up with this day and came to the capital. The formation of waiting for him exceeded all Chen Xie's expectations. The head of the cabinet Zhou Yanru, the civil officials in the capital were basically here. Moreover, it was a 15-mile welcome team that left the city. Chen Xie didn't understand the music played, but he felt the atmosphere was solemn.

%No%Wrong%Chen Xie did not dare to neglect and dismounted early. Zhou Yanru led all officials forward and bowed, "Sihua, Zhou is here for your Majesty's wishes, and is waiting for the grand ceremony to return to the capital." Chen Xie turned sideways and refused to accept the full ceremony, bowed and replied, "Chen Xie has only fulfilled his duties as a minister and dared not accept this great ceremony. Please ask the Chief Auxiliary to let the ceremonial guard retreat, otherwise Chen Xie will wait here and no longer take a step forward."

The reason for saying this is so firm is that Chen Xie thinks that this specification is too out of the ordinary. The Ming Dynasty etiquette is a very important matter, and over-the-counter is a serious crime. Even if Chen Xie doesn't have to worry about the threat caused by over-the-counter, he doesn't want to make big mistakes on this issue. He causes unnecessary trouble for himself. This situation is put on here, and Chen Xie is really worried about the problem.

Since I don’t understand these things, I’ll let everyone take them down, otherwise Chen Xie won’t leave.

Zhou Yanru had no choice but to look at the ministers, then Chen Xie, who took the initiative to retreat ten steps and stood there motionless. He felt a secret pain in his heart. There was no doubt that this was a trap, and the people of the Ministry of Rites were doing it. Does Zhou Yanru not understand? He understood, but he just said it.

Chen Xie had another problem here, that is, he didn't see Yang Tinglin. There were so many civil servants. The only person Yang Tinglin could solve his doubts.

Just when Chen Xie was not moving and insisted on removing the ceremonial guards, and the civil and military officials were extremely embarrassed. Two fast horses arrived, and Cao Huachun and Yang Tinglin came down from the horse's back. These two appeared together. It was rare.

After Cao Huachun got down from the hut, he said with a sharp voice: "Your Majesty's order!" All the ministers knelt down together. When Chen Xie hesitated and wanted to kneel down, Cao Huachun immediately spoke: "Stand stand and listen." At this time, all the ministers had already knelt down. Only Chen Xie and Yang Tinglin were still standing. This scene was really awkward. The ministers who had already kneeled down were embarrassed to get up.

"Chen Sihua's overseas visitor is not etiquette. If there is any exceeding the rules, I will not blame him. He will also take it!" Cao Huachun finished speaking, and Chen Xie really knelt down with tears in his eyes, and his voice was hoarse: "I thank Your Majesty for your kindness and magnanimity. Even though I am dull, I dare not act rashly."

It seems like I am thanking Zhu Youjian for his words. In fact, he has calculated all these ministers. Who made such a scene? Everyone knows it. This matter is not over.

All the ceremonial wars welcoming were finally removed. Chen Xie was determined and insisted on doing this again, he would probably live to the death immediately. After a simple meeting ceremony, Chen Xie returned to the city surrounded by officials, and had no chance to talk to Yang Tinglin along the way. When he entered the city, Cao Huachun said, "Your Majesty passed on Chen Sihua to meet him, and all officials will be dispersed."

Entering the palace again, this time the three of them were walking. Cao Huachun led the way, and Yang Tinglin accompanied Chen Xie to walk slowly, whispering as he walked: "I know it's too late for today. I immediately asked Your Majesty to invite an imperial edict. Unexpectedly, Sihua was cautious, but Lin was worried about it."

Chen Xie said lightly: "The temple is dark, and it has been like this since ancient times. In order to defeat political opponents, we have done everything we can. This is normal. I am not their opponent, and they are not worthy of being my opponent."

Yang Tinglin sneered: "Let's wait and see, someone will come out tomorrow to take the blame, and I think this will make you miss it."

Cao Huachun was very considerate. When he arrived at the palace gate, he asked Wu Zhi to accompany him to continue walking, and he went back to meet the saint first. When he saw the emperor, he told the matter. Before Zhu Youjian spoke, Empress Zhou was already angry and said: "Shameless! Shameless! If Chen Sihua hadn't acted cautiously, he wouldn't have let those people's impeachment memorial be buried alive tomorrow? Welcoming Chen Sihua with the etiquette of the vassal king, what is this to do?"

Zhu Youjian also kept sneering, signaling Cao Huachun to go down, and then said to the queen: "I won't spare them easily."

Yang Tinglin walked to the gate of the harem and stopped, bowed and said, "I can only send it here." Chen Xie smiled slightly and bowed and said, "No matter what, thank you for what happened today." Yang Tinglin said, "It should be, you and I are in-laws."

Chen Xie....Okay, let's be the in-laws. Wu Zhi led Chen Xie into the room. When there was no one around, he said, "Our family is settled, let's go and see you again." Chen Xie smiled and nodded to show his understanding. The two are always in love, and everyone understands this. When Chen Xie turned around, Wu Zhi would give an explanation.

He did not go to see the emperor, but was taken to a side hall by Wu Zhi. Then the guy smiled slightly and said, "Sihua, I'm waiting outside. You go in. After saying that, our family will take you to see Master Long live."

Uh, Chen Xie immediately understood that Zhu Youjian was really anxious.

The yard is not big and it is empty inside. A girl stood in the yard with a nervous face, her cheeks flushed, and she was whispering.

"Zhu Meiyu, I have seen the five towns in command of the chief Chen." Seeing Chen Xie come in, Princess Kunxing Zhu Meiyu stepped forward and her movements were a little tight. Chen Xie was about to see her, which naturally made her very nervous. She hasn't had a good sleep these days and thought a lot. What would he say to him? How to answer, etc. As a result, there was no answer. When she really saw him, she could only speak based on her instinct.

"Princess, call me Sihua. It seems you know everything. Since that's the case, I will speak straight to the point. I'm willing to marry you, are you willing to marry me?" Chen Xie spoke naturally, not even etiquette, just like a casual conversation between friends. This attitude made Zhu Mei feel a little relaxed, and she didn't tremble when she stood there.

"This, if the unmarried woman in the world knows that her future husband is you, I'm afraid she'll be willing." This answer was very straightforward. After not being nervous, she spoke quickly and dared to look up at Chen Xie. At this moment, Chen Xie saw the clean eyes above. It was like a clear lake water, a quiet and peaceful existence without waves.

People who grew up in the palace still have such eyes, Chen Xie thought that the rest should be left to him.

"My mother, let me call you by your name. From now on, you are not a princess, and I am not a supervisor. We are friends, very close friends, you can say anything. If I position this way, do you have no objection? Just sit down and talk if you have no objection." Chen Xie smiled and pointed to the grape rack in the yard. The tender green of spring crawled on the rack. There was a stone bench next to the rack, and there was a swing rack three steps away.

Zhu Xi walked to the side of the stone bench, hesitated for a moment, and chose a swing rack three steps away. Sitting on it, his eyes were no longer nervous, and there was only curiosity. Chen Xie walked to the stool slowly, took out a cigarette and lit one, and then smiled and said, "You know, I came back from overseas, probably because of this, I like the sea. So, if you and I are together in the future, would you like to go with me if I go to the sea?"

Zhu Mai did not answer this question immediately, but tilted her head and looked at Chen Xie carefully. At the same time, her body was shaking slightly on the swing. When her eyes met Chen Xie's eyes, Zhu Mai did not dodge. After about a minute of quietness, she withdrew her eyes and smiled and said, "Your questions are so strange. I thought about many questions, but you didn't ask. Since you marry you, you will naturally follow you. Even if you go to the ends of the world, if you don't abandon me, I will never leave you."

The answer is very clear, Chen Xie has no problem. Only then did he realize that he was doing it too formally. He treated this little girl as an adult, and always felt that the people who grew up in the palace would be more complicated. In fact, even if they were complicated, they were still a little girl.

"I understand, no problem. I think there should be some time left. Come on, I will push you." Chen Xie stood up without waiting for her to agree, walked behind and pushed gently. When the swing was swinging, he could see the blue veins on the back of her nervous hand. It was very white and removed from the skin, and the visual effect was almost transparent. Well, it seemed to be a little thin.

The swing started to swing. When Chen Xie didn't say anything, the girl on the swing kept biting her lips and smiling. This was a very wonderful feeling. He had a temperament that made people feel close to him, which seemed to make people unprepared. Will this person be the prince consort in the future? It's not like, but like an older brother. Time flowed silently, and the girl's face was always smiling. Every time she looked back secretly, she could see his focused look and the gentleness on her face when she smiled.

Half an hour later, Chen Xie stopped, held the swing and said, "I should leave, Your Majesty should be waiting for me. Remember, we are friends first, and then other relationships. So, you must tell me what I want to be like in your heart."

"You are very good now. Since you have your favor, what else can you ask for? People cannot be greedy, God will blame you." The answer was very thin and soft. Chen Xie gave a breath slightly. The last moment was Chen Xie's most secret question.

Chen Xie left, his tall back disappeared at the corner, Zhu Mei's face turned slightly rosy, and when her eyes were reluctant to leave, a palace maid came out of the room behind her and smiled and said, "Congratulations to Princess, congratulations to Princess." The little princess's face turned redder, she lowered her head and said, "I was so nervous just now. I don't know why, but I'm not nervous anymore." (To be continued...)
