Chapter 86 Other plans

That night, Chen Yi did not leave the palace, but after doing "good things" with Wu Tuaner, he slipped back to the place outside the Xianju Hall where he could rest and sleep for a night.

Wu Zetian woke up early the next day. When Wu Zetian woke up, she was favored by Chen Yi last night. Her face was very good, but her body seemed a little unpleasant. She was already waiting outside. When she heard Wu Zetian's call, she hurried in to serve.

Chen Yi didn't know if Wu Zetian had anything to tell him. Today he had nothing to do. If Wu Zetian had nothing to give, he would go around the prison, and then leave and accompany Helan Minyue. Although the two met a few days ago and Helan Minyue had visited him several times, he had not taken the initiative to see her. This was related to the face of men and women, so he had to take the initiative to visit him!

However, he didn't dare to let go before Wu Zetian gave orders. He had to wait for the queen of the Tang Dynasty to give orders before he could decide what he was going to do today so as not to make her unhappy.

After a while, Wu Zetian, who had finished dressing up, walked out with the help of Wu Tuaner. Seeing Chen Yi standing aside waiting for him, Wu Zetian glared at him fiercely, with dissatisfaction in his eyes, Chen Yi had to hide from her eyes and dare not look at her. This woman must be dissatisfied with his perfunctory work last night, and it may be possible to blame him!

Sure enough, when he asked Chen Yi to come to her and listen to the instructions, Wu Zetian couldn't help but whisper a few words, the general idea was that he didn't do his best to serve her last night. She was very dissatisfied. If this happened again in the future, she would definitely blame him, wait. Chen Yi had to laugh with him and agreed. Fortunately, Wu Tuaner and other palace servants were by the side, and Wu Zetian did not let go of his face and blamed him.

Wu Zetian didn't seem to really blame Chen Yi, but just wanted to vent her dissatisfaction. After a while, she greeted Chen Yi with a smile and had breakfast with her! Today is not a court meeting day. Wu Zetian should not get up too early. She can use breakfast with great peace of mind. After breakfast, she will handle court affairs and review memorials and other things!

The breakfast was very delicious, most of it was Chen Yi's favorite. He consumed too much last night. He had to make up for it as soon as possible, regardless of the surprise of Wu Zetian and Wu Tuaner. Chen Yi ate it voraciously, almost let Wu Zetian have nothing to eat. He quickly asked Wu Tuaner to give instructions and prepare some food. "Zi Ying, eat slowly. No one robs you!" Seeing that Chen Yi had eliminated five big steamed buns, Wu Zetian couldn't help but remind him. "Be careful to choke you!"

"Empress, I'm finally full!" Chen Yi swallowed the sixth steamed bun, drank half a bowl of cold porridge, and said a little embarrassedly: "I ate less snacks last night, slept late, and I was hungry, and my chest was pressed against my back. If it weren't for the Empress, I would have prepared to go back to the sea to have a meal as soon as I left the palace, and then go to do things!"

"Oh. You are still worried that I am stingy and will not even provide breakfast for you!" Wu Zetian gently tapped Chen Yi's head with chopsticks and said with pity: "Looking at how hungry you are, I feel distressed. In the future, I will definitely ask Tuan'er to prepare snacks for you to avoid being hungry and sticking to your back, as if there is no food in the palace!"

"Thank you, Empress!" Chen Yi smiled. He was proud. Last night, he was hungry because of the little girl Wu Tuaner, who consumed too much energy. If it weren't for the "snacks" provided by Wu Tuaner, he would definitely not feel so hungry. If he often asked him to taste the "snacks" Wu Tuaner in the future, he would be very satisfied!

Wu Zetian didn't know Chen Yi's ghost thoughts, so she was having breakfast happily and listening to Chen Yi's nonsense.

Before the breakfast was over, a palace servant came to report that Chen Nian, the supervisor of the Yeting Palace of the Escort, was seeking a visit outside and reported to him important things.

After hearing this, Wu Zetian frowned and thought for a moment, but still let Chen Nian come in.

A young eunuch with a fair face and no forehead, about thirty to forty years old, walked in with the palace servant who was leading the way, stood there after giving a tribute!

"Eunuch Chen, what do you have to report?" Wu Zetian couldn't help asking when she saw Chen Nian who didn't immediately say anything after coming in to show her salute.

"This..." Chen Nian glanced at Chen Yi, who was sitting in the same case with Wu Zetian, and suddenly didn't dare to say it!

Wu Zetian understood Chen Nian’s thoughts and said a little impatiently: “Eunuch Chen, if you have anything to do, I’m not an outsider!”

Seeing Wu Zetian's instructions, Chen Nian no longer hesitated and stepped forward and replied in a low voice: "Greeting back to the Queen, at noon yesterday, His Highness the Prince went to the Yeting Palace!"

"Oh?!" Wu Zetian was stunned for a moment, and immediately frowned and asked, "What are the prince doing in the Yeting Palace?"

"The prince is going to visit... the two princesses!" Chen Nian said carefully, observing Wu Zetian's expression while speaking.

Wu Zetian's brows jumped, his face became angry, but he immediately felt relieved and said disapprovingly: "The prince went to visit his two sisters. It's nothing. Don't make a fuss! If the prince goes to visit his sister again in the future, don't worry!"

"Yes, Empress!" Chen Nian was startled and quickly apologized, "Empress, I'm too much, please forgive me!"

"What are you guilty?" Wu Zetian smiled and waved his hand and said, "You go down first!"

"Yes, I will leave!" Chen Nian bowed and retreated, and secretly wiped his forehead.

Wu Zetian seemed to be feeling bad by Chen Nian's report just now, and seemed to be dealing with something. She did not leave Chen Yi in the palace, but asked him to leave. Chen Yi, who was a little confused, had to walk out after Chen Nian. Because the Yeting Palace was in the original Tai Chi Palace, Chen Nian went back to the same way as Chen Yi. After meeting outside the palace, the two walked out together.

"Eunuch Chen seems to be highly valued by the Empress. Please take care of me in the palace in the future!" Chen Yi said with a haha.

"Young Master Chen is so serious!" Seeing Chen Yi's casualness in front of Wu Zetian just now, the two of them used breakfast together. Chen Nian did not dare to be arrogant and nodded and said, "From the future, I will ask my master to take care of you. I will say a few good words in front of the Empress. I am very grateful!"

The palace ladies who have become Chen Nian have become cunning and have unique visions when looking at people and things, and their minds are not comparable to ordinary people. From Chen Yi's casualness in front of Wu Zetian just now, he understood the degree of favored Chen Yi and the ability to enjoy dining with the Queen, except Helanmin, there seems to be no one else. People with such honors will have a bright future in the future, let alone Chang'an's reputation in Chang'an during this period. Even people like Chen Nian, who have heard Chen Yi's anecdotes several times!

Of course, he has to speak with such a person with caution, and even curry favor with him if he has the chance!

"Eunuch Chen is polite!" Chen Yi smiled. To be honest, he looked down on the men without roots from the bottom of his heart. Their sarcastic words made him feel uncomfortable. However, the two of them had just met in front of Wu Zetian and walked out of the palace. Some words were just casual. After walking out of the palace, they left separately!

Seeing that Chen Yi was a little unenthusiastic, Chen Nian didn't say anything else, but just said some polite words casually. Chen Yi would not be rude and responded to Chen Nian with similar words.

After walking out of the Daming Palace, the two of them gave gifts to each other and walked in different directions. After just two steps, Chen Yi suddenly thought of something, immediately stopped, shouted to Chen Nian who was walking towards the Tai Chi Palace, and immediately chased after him.

Chen Nian stopped and waited for Chen Yi to come over.

"Eunuch Chen, I'm so embarrassed. I've always wanted to inquire about something, but I just spent my time talking to my father-in-law and forgot to inquire!"

Chen Nian looked at Chen Yi in confusion and asked in confusion: "What's the matter between Mr. Chen and I want to inquire with me?" The two had never had any interaction before, and this was the first time they met today!

Chen Yi's eyes turned twice and lowered his voice: "Eunuch Chen, I want to ask you about someone, this person should be in the Yeting Palace!"

After hearing Chen Yi say this, Chen Nian breathed a little relieved. It turned out that he was just inquiring about someone, and there was no problem with this. He smiled and said, "Mr. Chen wants to inquire about who he wants? If I know, I will tell you!"

"The family of the offender Shangguan Yi! His son Shangguan Tingzhi's wife Zheng, and their daughter Shangguan Wan'er, don't you know if your father-in-law knows whether they are mother and daughter?" Chen Yi said, staring at Chen Nian with his eyes tightly.

Chen Nian frowned slightly and looked at Chen Yi in confusion. He was surprised by Chen Yi's strange eyes and asked carefully: "Young Master Chen, why did you inquire about Guan Shangguan Yi's family?"

Chen Yi knew that this was a bit sensitive topic, so he immediately stopped his eyes, smiled embarrassedly, pretended to be a little casual and said, "I'm entrusted by a friend to pay attention to it. I wonder if Eunuch Chen can tell the situation?"

"Shangguan Tingzhi's wife Zheng and their daughter were indeed charged into the Yeting Palace, but there were too many families in the Yeting Palace who were inmates, and I couldn't remember their situation very clearly, so I couldn't tell the young master about their specific situation!" Seeing Chen Yi's expression of disbelief, Chen Nian was a little helpless, "Young Master Chen, I really didn't hide it from you. There are hundreds of people in the Yeting Palace. I just know the situation. The specific situation is really not clear!" Chen Nian Zheng took Shangguan Wan'er, the young daughter, in the Yeting Palace for almost a year, and there was no movement. She was very obedient. Chen Nian would not pay much attention to people who would not cause headaches. Moreover, Zheng was just Shangguan Tingzhi's wife, not Shangguan Yi's wife or daughter. His status was much worse, and he didn't need to pay much attention to it!
