Chapter 237: Sister Wang Chen
A woman took the three of them out of the station and would attract many people to watch wherever they were placed. What's more, this was a station dedicated to entertaining envoys. When the envoys saw them walking by themselves, they took the courage to talk to others about the origins of their three.
"How come the three of them were given special attention from the King of Wu?"
"That's right, we are not qualified to visit the Palace of Wu. Why can they?"
"Eighty times it is because of flattery to win favor with the King of Wu." One person said sarcastically.
No matter how they gained the favor of King Wu and got the opportunity to participate in the King Wu Palace, they could not compare with Jiang Huan and others.
Xiyan brought the three of them to the largest hall in the palace and introduced, "This hall is called Bibo Hall, and it is the bedroom of Concubine Zhao."
Baili Ao narrowed his eyes and glanced at the magnificent palace in front of him, and said as if he was sighing, "This empress is very favored by the King of Wu?"
After hearing this, Xiyan said with a smile, "Mr. Baili is so bad, and the most favored person in this palace is not Empress Zhao."
"I am not the most favored person, so why do you give her such a good palace?" Baili Aoluo said interested.
"Sir, I don't know anything." Xi Yanmin said with her lips, "This empress is Ye Zhao, the sister of Ye Ling, the king of Chen State."
Hearing Ye Ling's name, Jiang Huan's fist clenched tighter and a little cold sweat appeared on his forehead. He only heard him whisper, "Is Ye Ling's sister?"
Xiyan Ben was introducing the origin of Bibo Palace to Baili Ao. When he heard Jiang Huan's voice, he turned around and said, "What will Lord Jiang say?"
Jiang Huan chuckled, "I'm just curious about this Concubine Zhao."
"Curious?" An Yi looked at him in disgust, then sneered, "You are a little brat with no hair. You are curious about what a concubine does. You shouldn't fall in love with her, right?"
As the words fell, the three of them changed their faces. Xiyan was about to say An Yi a few words, but at this moment, a woman wearing a peony tassel hairpin and a light blue palace skirt came out of the Bibo Palace. When Xiyan saw her, her face changed. She quickly bowed to the woman, "I have seen Concubine Zhao."
"Empress?"
Hearing this sentence, three black threads emerged from An Yi's forehead. You must know that he would not say such words even if he beat him to death. Unfortunately, there is no if in the world.
The woman called Concubine Zhao waved her hand slightly, "Get up."
"Xi Niangniang." After Xiyan said that, she stood up.
Ye Zhao glanced at the person behind Xiyan, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
Those men were dressed in extraordinary clothes, and they thought they were not the first-class guards in the palace. Then, there was only one possibility.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the corner of Ye Zhao's mouth, "The three young men are so romantic and handsome. I think they should be the envoys of which country, so what do you know?"
Just by their clothes and dressing, they can guess their true identities. I think they should be a smart person.
Jiang Huan thought so.
"In Xia Baili Ao, these two are An Yi and Jiang Huan."
"It turns out that it is Mr. Jiang, who has long admired Daqie, and has lost his respect."
Jiang Huan frowned slightly when he heard this, and he said with a puzzled look, "We know each other?"
"No." Ye Zhao shook his head, "When I was in Chen State, I heard a vendor from Yue State say that there was a young man named Zuo Cheng at a young age. His name was Jiang Huan. The young man was extraordinary and had a noble manner. I think he should be the one Jiang Zuo Cheng."
"Empress Zhao is observing her in detail and admires her."
Seeing Jiang Huan so polite, Ye Zhao nodded with satisfaction, "Since several sirs have come to our palace's Bibo Palace, it's a fate. Why not sit in our palace?"
Xiyan looked a little embarrassed when she heard what Ye Zhao said. Ye Zhao was a palace wife, and Jiang Huan and the other two were outsiders. If the matter of the outsiders getting along with the palace wife, wouldn’t Wu become a laughing stock for everyone?
Thinking of this, Xiyan shook her head like a rattle, "I asked the three envoys to visit the palace by the king, so I could not stay in the palace of the empress, and I hope the empress forgives my sins."
"Hey." Ye Zhao waved his hand indifferently, "It's just a cup of tea, which won't take much time. If Miss Xiyan was afraid of some rumors from the palace and the adults, she would come to Bibo Palace together."
Seeing this, Xiyan couldn't refuse, so she had to respond slowly. The few people walked into Bibo Palace and sat in the lower position, while Ye Zhao sat above.
"Give tea." The palace maid heard the orders of her master and hurriedly stepped down to prepare the refreshments. Soon, the refreshments were placed on everyone's tables.
Baili Ao picked up a piece of pastry with two fingers and bite it gently.
"This is a specialty of Wu Kingdom. Does Lord Baili like it?"
"I like it." Baili Ao chuckled.
Ye Zhao tasted a piece of pastry, her fingers gently tapped the tabletop, and a pair of fox-like eyes looked at Jiang Huan. She said with a smile, "How does Lord Jiang feel?"
"It's pretty good." Jiang Huan said.
OK?
Ye Zhao frowned slightly when he heard what Jiang Huan said. She raised her eyes and looked at Xiyan next to her, "Miss Xiyan, I heard that a king attracted an assassin during the birthday banquet of the king, but it is true?"
When Wu Zhen was born, she was feeling uncomfortable, so she didn't attend. The assassin was heard from the girl from Bibo Palace. However, she didn't love Wu Zhen and didn't care about his life or death. Now she would bring up the old things again, just to test Jiang Huan.
When Xiyan heard Ye Zhao call him, she said blessedly, "Reply to the Queen Mother, when the King of the Birthday was indeed assassinated by a man who claimed to be the previous dynasty. But the King of the King was not seriously injured. As for the assassination, the King of the King had been imprisoned in a death row."
Ye Zhao said with a pretentious concern, "Then you can pry open the mouth of the assassination man, otherwise it will be troublesome if you encounter such a thing next time."
"What the Empress said is." Xiyan said.
"I am a little dizzy, so I won't treat you anymore."
Hearing Ye Zhao's order to expel guests, everyone quitted.
But just as they were about to go to another place to see, Xiyan said, "I have a little stomachache. I want to go to the toilet for a while. Can the adults go around by themselves? When I come back, I will take you guys to continue visiting the palace."
An Yi was about to say that since Xiyan took them to visit the palace, why didn’t he solve his problem in advance. But somehow, when he saw Xiyan’s begging eyes, his heart softened. He said softly, “As the saying goes, people have three urgent needs. Since you can’t hold it in, go to the toilet.”
"Thank you, sir." Xiyan said, and quickly retreated.
