The first thousand and forty-six chapters the imperial concubine summoned again
"Father, why did King Chen choose the location outside the city?" Chen Jiayi suddenly moved while looking forward to it.
She had never heard of a place called Qiu Shan. It couldn't be a very remote place.
"No one can guess what King Chen is thinking. Maybe because his father is a popular person in front of the emperor, His Highness King Chen doesn't want to cause gossip, so he decided to set the location outside the city." Chen Dadu thought for a moment and felt very relieved.
"You don't have to worry about this. If King Chen is interested in you, it will be a blessing for you and the Chen family!"
Chen Jiayi once again heard that her father was so optimistic about King Chen, and her eyes narrowed slightly, "Father, do you mean to say that King Chen has hope of becoming the prince?"
Chen Dadu smiled slyly, "My father didn't say that."
But the expression on her face is clearly telling Chen Jiayi, you guessed it right!
When Chen Jiayi saw this, her expression changed and her eyes suddenly lit up.
It seems that she must seize the opportunity tomorrow!
Marrying into Prince Han's Mansion has always been a task assigned to her by her father! Only by completing the task can the lives of the whole family be saved!
But if she can marry Prince Chen, what awaits her will be endless glory and wealth, and she may even be honored by her mother!
She must not miss this opportunity!
…
Prince Han's Mansion.
In the afternoon, Chu Han came back.
As soon as Xie Yao saw Chu Han, she saw an obvious look of exhaustion on Chu Han's face.
Even if he is the God of War, he has not slept for two days and one night without showing signs of fatigue.
"I made ginseng soup for you. Let's drink a bowl later." Xie Yao asked Chu Han to sit down and asked the servants to get the ginseng soup.
She knew that Chu Han would be very busy these days, so she made preparations in advance.
Only with sufficient energy can we handle everything and every detail better.
"I don't want to drink." Chu Han waved his hand directly, with a hint of disgust in his dark eyes, "When you have time, you can find a way to teach the cook something. His cooking skills have not improved recently."
Xie Yao saw the disgust in Chu Han's eyes, and the corner of her mouth curled up slightly, "I cooked it, but I just put it in the back kitchen so that the people in the back kitchen could keep an eye on the heat."
Is Chu Han's mouth being tricked?
"Did you endure it? Then I'll drink it." Chu Han raised his eyes, his black eyes slightly bright, and glanced in the direction of the door.
Xie Yao smiled warmly, looking at Chu Han's dusty appearance, and said in a warm voice: "I can handle Wu Peiya's matter myself. Your time is limited, so go all out to investigate the case of the charred corpse."
Naturally, she will handle her matters.
What about Chen Dadu?
Even facing Emperor Zhaochu, she was not afraid.
But Chu Han shook his head and said, "I didn't enter the palace just because of Wu Peiya."
"The person who set Qiushan on fire has been found to be involved with Chen Shangshu."
Xie Yao raised her eyebrows slightly, "Is it related to Chen Shangshu? It's my father..."
Chen Shangshu had nothing to do with the Burnt Corpse Case from beginning to end, but suddenly became involved. Could there be the shadow of Emperor Zhaochu behind him?
Emperor Zhaochu had deliberately set a three-day deadline for Chu Han, and it would not be surprising if someone secretly stopped him again.
"It's not certain yet, but the results will be available soon." Chu Han's dark eyes deepened for a moment, and he nodded lightly.
Xie Yao wanted to say more, but suddenly the maid's voice came from outside, "Your Majesty, Miss Yan, the ginseng soup has arrived."
"Come in." Xie Yao ordered.
The door was pushed open, and a maid came in with a bowl of ginseng soup, placed it respectfully in front of Chu Han, and then bowed and left.
"Drink it while it's hot." Xie Yao glanced towards the door, and when she looked away, she saw that Chu Han had already picked up the ginseng soup bowl.
Chu Han put the ginseng soup under his nose and smelled it, his eyes slightly narrowed in enjoyment, then he took a small sip, and the corners of his mouth curled up with satisfaction, "It tastes good."
Xie Yao smiled and said, "It tastes good and you can have enough."
Chu Han laughed, glanced at Xie Yao, picked up the bowl and drank it all in one gulp.
"Another bowl?" Xie Yao raised her eyebrows upon seeing this, is it really so delicious?
Chu Han waved his hand, then looked a little serious, "Good news, the leaker who was escorted back from Jiangning City is not far from the capital."
Xie Yao was shocked when she heard the news. Are you finally coming back?
"Where is he?" she asked in a deep voice, light flashing rapidly in her eyes.
"It's not far from the capital, but the closer you get to the capital, the more complicated the situation becomes, so you have to be more careful. We will be in the capital in about three or four days." Chu Han looked at the concern in Xie Yao's eyes, and his dark eyes softened.
Coming down, "I should have arrived a long time ago. I encountered several interceptions on the road before, but we all made it through safely."
Xie Yao was not surprised by this.
If the leaker is caught, of course the other party will find out and take action to stop it.
Fortunately, we are not far from the capital and will arrive soon!
"You are right. The closer to the capital, the more complicated the situation becomes. Everything is about safety, and arriving late is not a problem." Xie Yao looked calm, thinking about going to see Xie Wenwu in the near future.
Since the situation outside the capital is very complicated, and the capital is even more dense with thorns, one wrong step may make previous efforts in vain.
She needs to think of a safer way.
"Don't worry, as soon as you enter the jurisdiction of the military camp, Vice General Xue and the others will personally escort you and they can arrive in Beijing safely." Chu Han had already made some arrangements, and his voice was calm.
Xie Yao felt slightly relieved when she heard that Chu Han had arranged for Vice General Xue to escort him, "Just in time, Vice General Xue came to Beijing. I just wanted to hear you talk about his severed and reattached fingers. As Yan Jun, take a look at his fingers."
Recovery situation.”
"Okay." Chu Han nodded with a smile.
The two chatted for a while, and Xie Yao asked Chu Han to go back and rest.
Although it's still daytime, it's good to get some sleep.
Chu Han did fall asleep after returning to Chaoyang Palace.
But at night, he left again.
The next day.
Xie Yao thought Chu Han was still sleeping, so she didn't ask anyone to wake him and had breakfast herself.
Just as he was planning to go to Chaoyang Palace to take a look, Shan Quan suddenly came to Yunjuan Pavilion.
"Miss Yan, Eunuch Ma has arrived and said that the Crown Princess summoned you to the palace." Shan Quan bowed and reported.
Xie Yao raised her eyebrows, did the Crown Princess want to see her again?
Although she came to Beijing frequently, counting this time, the Crown Princess had already taken the initiative to summon her three times!
Of all the people in the palace, she is the one who summons her most frequently!
I don’t know what happened to the Crown Princess when she saw her this time.
"When the prince wakes up, tell him that I will go into the palace to pay my respects to the princess and I will be back soon." Xie Yao told Shan Quan.
No matter what the Crown Princess asks her to do, she can handle it.
"Miss Yan, the prince left the mansion last night and hasn't come back yet." Shan Quan reported quickly, feeling surprised that the prince had not spent the night in the mansion for two days in a row.
Xie Yao's eyes narrowed slightly and she nodded, "If the prince comes back before me, I will report to him as I said before."
"yes!"
Afterwards, Xie Yao walked out dignifiedly, got on the carriage, and went straight to the palace.
