Chapter 170 A cold sweat
Chapter 170 Sweat all over cold
What is the queen going to do when she sees her now? Chen Yuan didn't quite understand it, so he asked Xiao Suli tentatively: "Mr. Xiao, is there anything wrong with the Empress asking me to go? Can you disclose it in advance?"
Xiao Suli shook his head: "I don't know, I really don't know, just go with me."
Chen Yuan thought about it and was going to go anyway, so he would be able to adapt to the situation. He said immediately: "Okay, then wait until I change into a decent piece of clothes."
Go to see the queen? No matter what, it is Yelu Luling's mother, so she can't be too casual. Besides, I plan to have the opportunity to come to the palace with Yelu Luling, so I naturally have to dress up.
Chen Yuan changed into a long blue cloth gown and dressed up for a while, but the bruises on his face made him unable to recover his previous handsome appearance. It was not scary to see that he could barely be so scary that he followed Xiao Suli into the carriage and the two went to the palace together.
This is the first time Chen Yuan has seen Xiao Tali. If it weren't for Xiao Suli's introduction, he wouldn't believe that this woman was Yelu Luling's mother, and she said that she was almost the same as her sister!
Only by looking closely at the crow's feet that cannot be concealed by the corners of your eyes can you find the traces left by time on this woman.
"I have met the Empress." Chen Yuan bowed very well.
Xiao Tars looked up and down Chen Yuan, and after a while, he said, "Okay, this is not a court, there are not so many rules. Chen Shimei, do you know why I came to you?"
Chen Yuan shook his head slightly: "I am stupid, don't know what the queen has to do?"
Xiao Tali slowly stood up, and Chen Yuan looked at it secretly. His figure was about the same height as Yelu Luling, but he was a little more plump.
Just now, he couldn't help but blame himself: "When is it that I still have the figure of a woman? What I should think about now is what purpose she calls herself to come! It's really a dog who doesn't change his shit!"
He forced his eyes back and only heard Xiao Talis say, "I want to ask you, it has been rumored that the Northern King had an affair with the Jurchens recently. What do you think about this?"
Chen Yuan's heart skipped a beat. Why did Xiao Tali ask himself this question? Could it be that she saw something? Or worse, it was that Liao Xingzong saw the flaw and asked her to ask him?
A cold sweat suddenly emerged from his back. Can this answer satisfy Xiao Tali? Maybe he can walk out of the palace alive today!
Xiao Ta’s eyes were still staring at him, and his eyes were full of the charm of a mature woman. Chen Yuan was no longer interested in appreciating these things: "I also have questions, I don’t know whether to speak or not."
Xiao Tali whispered: "Tell me."
Chen Yuan's mind turned and said, "I think that even if it is groundless, it is not completely unreasonable. This time, I also went to war with the army. The strangeness along the way is really hard to explain."
Xiao Tali asked: "Do you also doubt the King of the North Court?"
Chen Yuan hurriedly clasped his fists: "I don't dare. I just talk about the matter and think it's a bit strange."
This answer is ambiguous, and there is no positive answer, and it also says from the side what Chen Shimei should say from the position.
Xiao Tali took a step forward to Chen Yuan: "Chen Shimei, you are very good at speaking."
Chen Yuan bent his waist lowered: "Thank you for your praise."
Xiao Ta poured a glass of water, then sat down and took a sip, and then slowly said, "Then I can ask you another small question?"
Chen Yuan already felt that his back was wet. He had an illusion that he was in purgatory now, and Xiao Ta was the one who imposed punishment on him!
"I know everything, and I will speak." I must think faster in my heart, and my mind must turn faster, because my mouth cannot be slow at all.
Xiao Tali asked, "Why do you want to buy a house for Xiao Yuanfeng?"
This sentence is even more scary than what he said just now. Because from this sentence, Chen Yuan learned a message that Xiao Suli was actually monitoring him all the time.
This incident made him very scared. Fortunately, Wang Lun and the others took action. If it were Yang Wenguang from his side, Amu Dai and Pang Xi would do it, they would definitely be discovered.
What reason should I use to answer this question? Say I need food? I can cheat others, but Xiao Suli is standing next to me. He knows exactly how much the store sells every day!
Saying that he is afraid that Xiao Yuanfeng will wear his shoes? That is even more impossible.
Chen Yuan's head whirled rapidly, and suddenly a flash of inspiration: "This, the Queen, actually, has no other reason. He just wanted to take the boat of the Northern King. Do you want to do business? You are very versatile."
Xiao Tali smiled: "You and Yelu Shubao have both become so fussy. Do you think they are still so exquisite?"
Chen Yuan said: "Empress, no matter what, it is always right to leave a line, even if this line can only be passed on one sentence."
Xiao Tali no longer asked. Chen Yuan really didn't know if this reason had convinced her. Anyway, this was the best reason he could think of now.
Xiao Talili did not ask any questions, but said, "By the way, I haven't thanked you yet. This time the prince has changed his personality a lot. I heard that these are all your contributions."
Chen Yuan took a breath in his heart: "It was the prince who grew up himself. It was the duty of the prince who served the prince."
Xiao Tali nodded: "You are really good at talking."
This is the second time she has praised Chen Yuan like this tonight: "Okay, actually, there is nothing else I want to ask you to come. The main thing is to thank you for Hong Ji. Do you know, Hong Ji now regards you as your best friend and is willing to fight for Yelu Shubao for you. This is something I didn't expect. I hope that if you can help Hong Ji more in the future, I will naturally not treat you badly."
This last sentence made Chen Yuan hear something, and he immediately replied: "Don't worry, the queen, I will do my best to assist the prince, and have fulfilled my duties as a minister."
When he came out of Xiao Talis, Chen Yuan had no idea how many cold sweats he had. He really scared this woman!
The situation is so tense now, Chen Yuan's nerves are already in a state of high alert. In this game, he has never noticed the existence of this woman. Xiao Tali suddenly asked him to say this. This is no difference from the fact that someone suddenly jumped out from the side and shouted at you when he was walking.
He knew that this woman, who has always been known for her loneliness, is not willing to be lonely now. Perhaps she smelled a special smell and wanted to attend this banquet to gain a place for her and her son.
The last implicit confession in Xiao Ta’s just now had already explained her intention to Chen Yuan. Now, she is waiting for an opportunity, or she hopes that Chen Yuan can create an opportunity so that she can fully trust him.
After a deep breath, Chen Yuan looked up at the sun in the sky. The sudden change caught him off guard. He knew that there would be no neutrality in the struggle in the court. Xiao Tars had already said what to say, and left the rest to him to choose, either the enemy or his own people.
He didn't want this woman to be his enemy, which was definitely a very terrible thing. Therefore, Chen Yuan had to find a way to make this woman believe in him. At least before his plan was successful, he was unwilling to offend such a woman who knew how to bury herself deeply and could endure so many years of loneliness.
"Things are not too bad." Chen Yuan whispered to himself, and then prepared to go to Yelu Hongji to take a look.
This is the palace. Although he has already come in, he cannot walk around casually. Although it is less than 100 meters away from Xiao Talis, he has to wait for the eunuch to report it before Yelu Hongji can see him.
Chen Yuan waited in the yard for a while, and the eunuch who had gone to inform him came back: "Mr. Chen, the princess asked you to see her."
Chen Yuan was a little surprised. He asked the eunuch to inform Yelu Hongji, why did he get the princess out? The eunuch obviously knew that Chen Yuan must have this question. Before he could speak, he said, "The prince is waiting for you in the princess, come with me."
Following the eunuch, as soon as he walked to the door of Yelu Luling's bedroom, he heard the sound of tea cups falling out.
The eunuch in the palace was somewhat awe of the princess' temper. The eunuch who was leading the way a few steps away from the door stopped: "God of Lord Chen, please come in by yourself, I'll bring it here." After saying that, without waiting for Chen Yuan to react, he turned around and ran away.
Chen Yuan walked slowly to the door, stretched his head and looked inside. Yelu Luling sat on the chair in the middle, with many pieces of porcelain under his feet. He was holding one in his hand and was about to throw it down.
Yelu Hongji stood aside and persuaded something. When he turned around, he saw Chen Yuan leaking his head and shouted: "Chen Shimei, come in quickly."
Chen Yuan crossed the threshold and bowed in a regular manner: "I have met the prince and the princess."
Then he looked at Yelu Luling: "I don't know why the princess got angry like this?"
After seeing Chen Yuan, Yelu Lu Ling looked a little better, but she still didn't say anything angrily. Hong Ji said from the side: "Isn't that Li Yuanhao angry yet?"
Chen Yuan was a little surprised when he heard this: "Isn't King Dangxiang going to propose to the princess right away?"
As soon as he said this, the teacup that had been put down in Yelu Luling's hand suddenly fell to the ground again, and his eyes turned red. Yelu Hongji said, "He is simply too bullying! He proposed to my father, but on the other hand, he found a singer in Yanjing! He was also planning to bring the singer back to Dangxiang with my sister, which is too bullying!"
Chen Yuan suddenly understood what was going on, and secretly thought to himself that Li Yuanhao's approach was indeed a bit too much. Although you have no feelings for Yelu Luling, no one would say anything to you when you find a singer who you like, just like Yelu Luling and himself were sneaking around. But you should at least hide a little, leaving some face for Yelu Luling.
