Chapter 3

Although this was already the second time that Chu Yan had met the emperor, she was still a little apprehensive.

I haven't mentioned it before. Before she transmigrated to Xuan Dynasty, she was originally a lecturer majoring in Chinese language and literature in a university.

Isn’t that right, the classmate who graduated in the same year has already climbed from the counselor to the position of the deputy dean, but she, the so-called Ph. .

In fact, it's not that she doesn't want to fight, who doesn't want her salary to be higher, but it's a pity that she is naturally afraid of leaders, once they put on official authority, she will die, let alone being good at dancing.

Although this shortcoming was almost overcome later on, after so many years of slacking off, if you ask her to fight for something again, she will become a habit of being lazy.

Seeing the emperor now, the supreme ruler of the feudal dynasty, Chu Yan still felt a little nervous, but it was normal for a family of children to see the emperor look timid, so no one thought it was strange.

The emperor glanced at Chu Yan who had been hugged by Rong Zhen for a long time, and there was a look of displeasure in his eyes, Chu Yan's heart trembled... Did she do something to offend the emperor?

Sure enough, the emperor squinted his eyes, but couldn't help but said, "Aren't you tired after hugging for so long?"

The words were spoken to Concubine Rong.

Without waiting for the imperial concubine to speak, Chu Yan hurriedly added, "Empress, I bumped my forehead, not my foot, you should put Yanyan down."

His eyes were extremely sincere, and even though his voice was childish, his eyes kept looking at the emperor.

Rong Zhen gave the emperor a helpless look, and although he put down Chu Yan as he said, he still said, "Am I so precious?"

Judging by the emperor's posture, she was clearly noble to a certain extent.

Chu Yan quickly recognized the situation. If she wanted to gain a firm foothold in the palace, she must follow this noble concubine Rong. The current emperor regards her as his life, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also respects her. I wonder if there is another one like this in the palace. honorable man?
Thinking of this, when she saw a few imperial doctors in official robes rushing here, she subconsciously hugged Rong Zhen's calf, and cried out in a crying voice, "Don't, Yan Yan, don't want to see the doctor! Yan, don't prick the needle!"

Rong Zhen was taken aback for a moment, looking at the little meatball hugging his calf, he could still feel the guy's trembling.

This feeling...

Before she could speak to appease Chu Yan, she saw her four-year-old son running over from the emperor, hugging her other foot, and posing fiercely at Chu Yan with a childish voice. Yan shouted, "Let go of my concubine's feet!"

What is this all about?
Chu Yan also couldn't laugh or cry, why did this little guy come here to join in the fun?Who is going to snatch his mother and concubine from him?

At the moment, I have to put on an aggrieved look, "I'm afraid...I'm afraid of needles...."

The tears came as soon as they said it, and big golden peas fell down.

Gu Pan was cared for very well since he was a child, and he almost never shed tears. Looking at Chu Yan who was crying pitifully, he couldn't help stretching out his hand to catch the tear, and then put it in front of his eyes curiously, and was about to cry too. When he stuck out his tongue and licked it, he was suddenly stopped by Rong Zhen who saw his intention.

"Hope!"

Rong Zhen raised his forehead, took out a handkerchief to help his son wipe his tear-stained hands, then picked up his son and handed it to the emperor who was standing aside, "Here, look after your son."

That tone made it sound like he wasn't her son.

But the emperor still obediently took his son and hugged him.

Here, Rong Zhen coaxed Chu Yan to see the imperial doctor, and finally added a compliment from Gu Qi, "The little girl who is not afraid to see the doctor is the cutest."

Now that Chu Yan stopped making trouble, she stuck her head out of Calm Rongzhen's arms and showed it to the imperial physician.

Watching the imperial doctor apply medicine to her, Gu Qi's nameless anger burst out.

What is this girl doing?It's robbing his mother and concubine again, and he's being asked to speak out against his conscience. What he hates most in his life is a woman who can only cry and cry!
But thinking like this in my heart, but when I received the eyes of my mother and concubine, I once again said unconscionably, "Yanyan is so brave..."

My heart is really, vomiting three bowls of blood, I can't die.

It was already noon when she was sent back to Yuanxi Palace. Aunt Qiu, who was originally sent to pick up Chu Yan, hurried back to report after she learned that she had been hit on the head by a brush and missed school all morning.

When Zhao Ronghua heard this, he was very anxious at first, the girl's head was injured by the smash, what if she lost her appearance?
But later, when he heard that the prince had taken her away, he immediately became more at ease.

Since Chu Yan entered the palace, Zhao Ronghua approached Gu Qi several times in different ways, sometimes he said that he had contracted a cold and felt unwell;

During this period, without exception, Chu Yan was called out to accompany her, but it was a pity that after Gu Qi came twice, she seemed to see clearly that her purpose was to sell this six-year-old girl, and she always found excuses to shirk up.

Because of this incident, the mother and son, who had been relatively unfamiliar with each other, became a little bit further apart.

Now that Chu Yan was injured, it was because of blocking things for Gu Qi, and Gu Qi also took her to see the imperial physician, and things went smoothly unexpectedly.

It was not Gu Qi who sent Chu Yan back. Although Rong really ordered him to do so, he wanted to give Zhao Ronghua a chance to meet his son, but Gu Qi felt that his mother wanted to make such a young girl into him as a concubine, so as to stabilize her. The status of the Zhao family was very chilling, so they resolutely said that they had been absent from school for half a day and had to study well, and refused to send Chu Yan back.

Zhao Ronghua originally thought that his son would come with him, but after going out, he only saw Chu Yan getting off the carriage, and his face stiffened immediately, not so enthusiastic.

Chu Yan walked into the Yuanxi Hall and saluted respectfully, "Auntie."

Only then did Zhao Ronghua look away and look at her forehead, "Is the injury serious? What did the imperial doctor say?"

Chu Yan repeated the imperial physician's words in a childish voice, "The skin is broken, but the injury is not serious. Put the medicine on it and keep it from water for three days, and it will be all right."

Things are done in such an orderly manner at such a young age, knowing that the imperial physician will come back to report, so keep it in mind - Zhao Ronghua is very satisfied with her performance.

"Auntie knows you are a good boy, so come in with Auntie for some snacks." Zhao Ronghua took her hand and walked towards the main hall, his movements were natural, and his attitude was amiable and amiable even to Gu Qi.

Speaking of which, Gu Qi was raised by Zhao Ronghua himself before he was six years old, but it is a pity that Zhao Ronghua was still Zhao Shuyi at that time, with a high status, and he wanted to put his son on the throne, so he wished to suppress other favored concubines to avoid One day a second prince would appear to compete with Gu Qi, and his attitude towards his son was harsh to the point that he was afraid that something might go wrong with his son, which would affect his succession to the throne in the future.

Later, she finally suppressed Rong Zhen, who was promoted by a court lady. Unexpectedly, the emperor could ignore other people, but she couldn't mess with this person. Because she went too far, the emperor directly demoted her to Ronghua. If it wasn't for her The Zhao family behind it, I am afraid that Ronghua's position cannot be maintained.

And Gu Qi started to follow Rong Zhen from that time, and gradually alienated Zhao Ronghua from then on.

There is only one son in this life, but he lacks mother-child affection. Now Zhao Ronghua is not as sharp as before, but he is gradually yearning for family affection. Chu Yan's age is exactly the same as the age when Gu Qi left Zhao Ronghua. Chu Yan became her daughter to make up for the loss of her son.

Chu Yan was held by her hand, and she let her care about her injury. After the meal, Zhao Ronghua kept serving her food, his eyes were full of kindness.

Even knowing that she only called her into the palace for the sake of the Zhao family, and to promote herself to the position of empress one day, Chu Yan still had a little affection for her.

After all, after coming to the Xuan Dynasty, Zhao Ronghua was the only person she could rely on in this palace.

After lunch, it was time to go to bed, but at this time, someone suddenly asked to see him outside.

Zhao Ronghua asked Shu Qiu, "Who is here?"

Shu Qiu took a look at the door and came back and said that it was Shen Xin, the girl who went to study in Ming Yang Zhai with Chu Yan every day, and the daughter of Shen Shuhai, the admiral of the capital.

Chu Yan sat there silently, but some pictures flashed through her mind quickly.

Since entering the palace, Shen Xin has treated her with a respectful attitude, and she is the only one who can talk to her. It's just strange that when she was attacked by a group of brats so many times, Shen Xin always hides in a timid manner. on the side.

At first she thought it was Shen Xin's timidity, but now that she thought about it, she suddenly realized that something was wrong.

If you say that you are timid, it is understandable to shrink to the side, but why is it that you are the one who is attacked every time, and she, as an accomplice, is ignored by no one?

As usual, shouldn't the group of children also play tricks on her?

Both the Zhao family and the Shen family are the most important families in the imperial court, but because Shen Xin is not a concubine's daughter, her status is not as good as Chu Yan's, and she only came to the palace to study as Chu Yan's companion.

Right now, the more Chu Yan thought about it, the more something was wrong, and a clue flashed through her mind.

What did the real Zhao Chuyan die in her previous life?
Because she murdered Shen Shuyuan's daughter, she was given death by the emperor.

Shen Shuyuan!
Chu Yan was startled, how could it be such a coincidence that they all have the surname Shen?

She doesn't know much about the memory of the original owner of the body, she only knows a general idea from the scene she saw when she traveled, and many details are blank, but she thinks that after coming to this palace, there will be a concubine surnamed Shen inexplicably in the future. It was a coincidence that there happened to be a companion named Shen next to me.

Chu Yan faintly suspects that this Shen Xin is the future Shen Shuyuan, but it's too early to tell, anyway, it's better to be on guard.

Zhao Ronghua had already invited people in, and Chu Yan sat there, thinking about how to face Shen Xin, and everything was ready.

As soon as Shen Xin came in, he greeted Zhao Ronghua with a well-educated manner, then turned around to look at Chu Yan, and said timidly, "Yan Yan, it's all my fault. I saw you arguing with them today, but I was afraid." You have to hide aside and didn't come up to help you, otherwise...or you won't be injured."

Zhao Ronghua was taken aback for a moment, thinking that someone accidentally threw a brush and hit Chu Yan who was blocking Gu Qi, but after hearing what Shen Xin said, someone deliberately made things difficult for Chu Yan!
She turned her head quickly and asked Chu Yan, "Did you quarrel with someone?"

Chu Yan glanced at Shen Xin quickly, and then said to Zhao Ronghua, "Auntie, it's my fault. I had a quarrel with those ladies and gentlemen a few days ago, so everyone formed a dispute, but the brush didn't mean to point at me. What happened was that they had their own internal strife, and someone slipped and hit me."

She wanted to explain, but she didn't want Zhao Ronghua to get angry.

Nonsense, if Zhao Ronghua knew that someone was making trouble for her, he would be so angry that he would run to find trouble for him?
In this way, those who hate her will hate her even more, and they don't know what kind of moths they are going to make secretly.

Right now, there are only children, so she has no problem coping with them, but if the family of courtiers behind the children holds a grudge, she will be powerless to do something about her.

Hearing Chu Yan's explanation, Shen Xin was stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously said, "That's not the case, they are clearly targeting you, Yan Yan, otherwise why do they keep making trouble for you?"

Her voice was full of grievances, obviously she was complaining for Chu Yan, and hoped that Zhao Ronghua would take some action to support Chu Yan.

What an innocent and loyal child!
Zhao Ronghua's expression suddenly changed, and he looked down at Chu Yan, but didn't say anything, he just turned around and looked at Shen Xin with a smile, "Miss Shen came to visit Chu Yan specially today? Thank you, I heard that old Mr. Shen was in poor health a while ago, Mr. Shen was a little worried in the court, I don't know how it is now?"

She deliberately changed the topic, naturally she hoped to talk to Chu Yan behind closed doors, after all, it was inconvenient for outsiders to explain these things.

Shen Xin responded calmly with the attitude of a lady, Zhao Ronghua politely issued the order to evict the guest, "Chu Yan was injured just now, although it was not serious, but the imperial doctor still told her to take a good rest, Shuqiu, send Miss Shen off. "

Shen Xin said a few more words to Chu Yancheng sincerely, then got up and saluted again, bid farewell to Zhao Ronghua softly, turned and left.

Sure enough, as soon as the door was closed, Zhao Ronghua frowned and asked Chu Yan what was going on.

Chu Yan took a last look at Shen Xin through the crack of the door, and she was [-]% sure in her heart that there was something wrong with this big fart kid.

Even though he seemed to be arguing for her, he just made Zhao Ronghua understand that someone was looking for trouble for her, and made it clear that he was firmly on their side, and his childlike words were impeccable.

If he really thought of her, why did Shen Xin stand by without saying a word when everyone was teasing her?

Chu Yan sighed, and the word Shen Xin was automatically connected in her mind with Shen Shuyuan who killed the original owner of the body.

She even faintly doubted whether Zhao Chuyan in her previous life really killed Shen Shuyuan's daughter?
A weak woman who dared not speak out after being bullied in the palace since she was a child, is she really so cruel that she can strangle a one-month-old child to death with her own hands?

She is full of doubts, but right now, she still has to think carefully about how to explain everything to Zhao Ronghua.
