Chapter 237 The Emperor Summons
But now she is Prime Minister Pei's direct granddaughter, so there is no need to go out of her way to please the eldest princess.

She looked at Prime Minister Pei with faint sympathy, as if to say, this granddaughter of yours doesn't seem to be very smart!

And Pei Shun and the others didn't expect Shen Jintang to have such a fortune.

With a look of watching the excitement, Shen Jintang walked towards the eldest princess.

Only Pei Jingxue knew that Shen Jintang was the adopted daughter of the eldest princess.

But Pei Heng and Wu Qiuniang didn't know about it, seeing that Shen Jintang was so bold that he walked directly towards the eldest princess, their faces turned pale with fright.

"My daughter has met her adoptive mother!" Shen Jintang stopped a step away from the eldest princess, and bowed to her.

Seeing this, everyone opened their mouths wide.

What is this girl called the eldest princess?Stepmother?Aren't their ears broken?
Li Shuyue looked at Shen Jintang with joy, and said happily: "Jintang, why did you come to the capital? I heard from my mother that she recognized you as a righteous daughter! Now you are my sister !"

'Boom! 'Everyone seemed to hear the sound of their jaws falling to the ground.

The adopted daughter of the eldest princess?

Everyone turned their eyes to Prime Minister Pei again, seeing that he also looked at Shen Jintang dully, with an expression of disbelief on his face, and there was an inexplicable joy in his heart.

Prime Minister Pei, an old man, doesn't even know that his granddaughter is the adopted daughter of the eldest princess?I don't know how he became a grandfather!

Pei Shun and the others also felt their heads froze, as if a thunderbolt struck their heads.

At this moment, only two words flashed through Pei Shun's mind, and that was the end!
Originally, Pei Heng, as the second son of the prime minister's mansion, was favored by his father, so he couldn't compete with him for the qualification to inherit the prime minister's mansion.

Fortunately, his daughter is still the adopted daughter of the eldest princess.

This is God playing a joke on him, right?
"Get up!" The eldest princess helped Shen Jintang up herself, and asked with a smile, "Why are you here, kid?"

About Shen Jintang being the granddaughter of Prime Minister Pei, apart from the officials who just learned about it, only the emperor and Gu Baiyi know about it, and the eldest princess has not yet known about it.

Shen Jintang smiled when he heard the words, and succinctly said that he was the granddaughter of Prime Minister Pei, so that the eldest princess had a bottom line.

The eldest princess was a little surprised when she heard that, and then she covered her lips and let out a chuckle.

"What a coincidence!"

Tang'er has the status of Prime Minister Pei's direct granddaughter, and as her adopted daughter, as long as she doesn't dislike Gu Baiyi in her heart, this marriage can be said to be a certainty.

The eldest princess had already guessed what the emperor was thinking.

"Okay, it's getting late, let's all go to the palace too." After saying that, the eldest princess entered the palace first.

There are a lot of ladies entering the palace tonight, the emperor knows that his time is running out, and he wants to choose concubines and concubines for Gu Baiyi, so he summons so many family members of officials into the palace.

The palace is brightly lit, with glazed bricks and green tiles, carved beams and painted buildings.

Both grand and majestic.

The palace banquet is arranged in the imperial garden.

After entering the palace, there are servants leading the crowd all the way to the imperial garden.

Not long after arriving at the Royal Garden, Eunuch Chu, who was beside the emperor, found Prime Minister Pei.

"Prime Minister, the emperor announced that Shen Mu and Shen Jintang will meet you. Which one is it? Please come along with the servant."

Prime Minister Pei frowned when he heard the words, looked at Eunuch Chu and asked tentatively: "Eunuch Chu, I wonder what the emperor announced about my son and granddaughter?"

Eunuch Chu smiled and said: "Your Excellency, you don't have to worry, the emperor just wants to see what kind of strange woman Shen Shen is."

As for Pei Heng, he has made so many contributions to the Great Chu Kingdom, so he naturally wanted to meet him to show the greatness of the emperor's favor.

After hearing this, Prime Minister Pei looked at Shen Jintang in surprise. Is he, the granddaughter who just came back, so famous?
Even the emperor wanted to see her.

Prime Minister Pei pulled Pei Heng and Shen Jintang aside and said to Eunuch Chu, "Eunuch Chu, this is my son Shen Mu, but he has now recognized his ancestor and changed his name to Pei Heng. This one is my granddaughter Shen Jintang."

He then introduced to Shen Jintang and Pei Heng: "This is Eunuch Chu who is beside the emperor."

Shen Jintang blessed Eunuch Chu and said neither humble nor overbearing: "The daughter of the people has met Eunuch Chu."

Eunuch Chu hurriedly turned sideways to avoid Shen Jintang's salute, and said with a smile, "I don't dare to accept a girl's gift."

Shen Jintang recognized the eldest princess as his adoptive mother, but he knew about it earlier than anyone else.

She is also favored by His Highness the Grandson. He would never underestimate or offend such a girl no matter what.

Pei Heng also bowed his hands to Eunuch Chu.

Eunuch Chu returned the salute with a smile, and then said: "Both of you, hurry up and go with the servant, so as not to make the emperor wait in a hurry."

The movement on their side naturally cannot be hidden from other people in the imperial garden.

Seeing that the emperor sent the most powerful eunuch, Eunuch Chu, to personally invite Shen Jintang and Pei Heng, he couldn't help being extremely shocked.

What is the background of this son and granddaughter that Prime Minister Pei just recognized, so that Eunuch Chu, who is next to the emperor, can invite him in person.

Pei Shun and the others had mixed feelings in their hearts.

They grew up in the capital, and they were the sons of Prime Minister Pei, but they hadn't even met the emperor a few times, let alone having such a big face that the emperor Chu Gonggong invited him in person.

Others were also curious about the background of Shen Jintang and Pei Heng, but many people had seen Pei Heng during the palace examination.

I also know that in just a few years, he has been promoted from a seventh-rank county magistrate to the prefect of Qingzhou.

This ability cannot be underestimated.

But how could his daughter be summoned by the emperor himself?
Some people were curious, but they didn't dare to ask Prime Minister Pei, so they decided to ask Pei Shun and others.

Pei Shun had a hard time in his heart, and in the face of everyone's inquiries, he could only say: "My second brother just came back, and I know as much as everyone else."

And the person with malicious intentions looked at Pei Shun's wry smile and said, "This Pei Heng is the son of the prime minister's mansion. Since he has come back, he must inherit the prime minister's mansion from now on."

There are also those girls who played better with Pei Jingxue in the past, who ran over and asked Pei Jingxue: "I heard that the girl who followed Eunuch Chu to see the emperor just now is your first sister? She is so beautiful!"

Pei Jingxue gave the man a cold look: "So what if she's beautiful? She's not a pariah who grew up in the countryside!"

"I heard that our entering the palace this time is because the emperor wants to choose a concubine for His Highness the grandson."

"Yes, I've heard about it too. Your first sister is so beautiful, and she is the prime minister's first granddaughter. Regardless of her status or her beauty, she is likely to be selected."

The more Pei Jingxue listened, the jealousy in her heart grew more and more, but those girls didn't seem to feel it, and kept talking in her ears.
