Yao Ji looked at eunuch Cao Fu with a calm expression.Cao Fu lowered his eyes and said, "After the emperor summoned Chen Xianzhen, he had been waiting for nearly two moments."

Mu Zhen said in his voice: What is she doing? Is she dressing up?

Cao Fu shook his head and bent down and said, "Search your body." The Empress Depin in the Imperial Concubine Palace was searched by herself. It took so long, I was afraid that I had touched all corners, so it would be better for Depin to do this.

Yao Ji was a little happy when she heard this. She understood that no matter how favored Chen Xianzhen was, she would never be able to gain Gao Xu's true trust. How long can it last if it is fresh?

Gao Xu was originally very brave, but now he is the emperor.

Thinking of this, Yao Ji looked slightly sideways, and indeed saw Mu Zhen’s face also seemed to have a little smile.The imperial concubine is quite generous, but Yao Ji feels that under her clean and beautiful smile, she is not confused.

Cao Fu's voice said: When the emperor saw Chen Xianzhen, he did nothing. Several people were standing in the house. The emperor only asked Chen Xianzhen to make tea. He paused for a moment and added himself, "Often the palace maids serve tea and water."

Neither Yao Ji nor Mu Zhen spoke.

Cao Fu continued to narrate: Chen Xianzhen is not a submissive master. It was not very good to look at the emperor on the spot, and he felt a little aggrieved.But she did as she did.There was only a cup of lid on several tables. Chen Xianzhen prepared and cooked oolong tea that the Fujian Provincial Administration Commissioner entered the palace.

He said it very carefully, and the emperor reminded Chen Xianzhen again, saying that oolong tea is different from other teas. After brewing, the tea leaves should be separated from the tea water, otherwise it will be bitter. Chen Xianzhen seemed to not understand Kung Fu Tea, and with the guidance of the emperor, she finally managed to serve her. Then the emperor was drinking tea while talking to Chen Xianzhen, talking about topics like the country and the people. I have left for something else, but looking at that situation, there will be nothing strange afterwards.

After hearing this, Mu Zhen said: I'm just talking, so I should ask someone to make a cup of tea for Concubine Xian.

Cao Fu hurriedly said: I will serve the two empresses.He looked happy and hurried to get things. How could he be reluctant?

Yesterday, Chen Xianzhen was wandering around nearby but was stopped by the Jinyiwei.Cao Fu said while busy, "I advised her to stay alive, but Chen Xianzhen didn't listen to her advice. When it was late at night, she played the pipa in the room. The emperor heard it two or three hundred steps away.The empresses looked at this person and said she was unwilling to give up, but they tried every means to provoke our emperor.

After saying that, Cao Fu shook his head and sighed.

Yao Ji understood that Cao Fu did not want to offend the imperial concubines. But at least Yao Ji didn’t blame him. After all, what kind of eunuch you favor is also depends on Gao Xu’s own meaning?

...The next morning, a large group of people traveled on schedule. After leaving Fengyang City, they soon arrived by the Huai River.

The vanguard army had built several boat bridges on the river surface. After crossing the Huai River, people walked west along the river bank.

On that day, the army reached the intersection of the two rivers and then set up camp there.

Chen Xianzhen got off the carriage and followed people into a village. She realized that the river flowing into the Huai River from the north was called Wohe.

There were many troops accompanying him. At first, Chen Xianzhen didn't know what the Emperor of Ming was doing. He saw that many tents were built in the nearby military camp, and the scene seemed like a marching camp. She thought the Northern Tour was going to fight.

But after a few days, she realized that this army was only walking around the land of the Ming Dynasty.

For many days, the army did not leave the Wo River and continued to travel along the east bank of the river. The speed was not fast and he stopped and walked.

Then Chen Xianzhen noticed that there were fleets heading north from time to time on this vortex river, and it was an official ship.

Because those ships were covered with blue and yellow dragon, sun and moon flags, and were guarded by soldiers wearing strong and sharp sterns.

The ships were full of things, and the hull looked a bit heavy. Sometimes when the fleet passed by the main road on the shore, the sound of the water wheels rolling the water surface was loud and loud.

One evening, after the army camped on the river bank, another fleet of ships passed by. Chen Xianzhen couldn't help but be curious, and called a eunuch not far away and asked him what these ships were carrying.

The eunuchs looked quite showing off. This was the fleet of the Ministry of War. Most of the ships were food and grass, and they also had military uses such as firearms, ammunition, and armor.This road ends up at Ningxia Prefecture (Yinchuan), three or four thousand miles away, and some will arrive at the garrison fortresses in the Hetao area.To ensure that our Ming soldiers have no worries about food and clothing and sufficient weapons.

Chen Xianzhen said: Is the Wo River three or four thousand miles long?

The eunuch shook his head and said: I will probably change the boat when I arrive in the Yellow River, and our family is not very clear about it.Eunuch Cao must know more, just ask Eunuch Cao.

Chen Xianzhen looked at the eunuch's unconcealed pride and felt a little upset.

Zhu Gaoxu told her that Li Li and others were lying to her, and the Annan tyrants were for their own benefit and had little to do with others.

However, these Han people in front of them were obviously very proud of the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, and even a eunuch spoke loudly.

She turned around and remembered another sentence from Zhu Gaoxu. Annan Kingdom was indeed much better than those tribes in the west.

In the past, the Chen Dynasty and even the Lili rebels also despised others a little when they received the barbarians.

Chen Xianzhen returned to the door of a tile house arranged for her, and saw eunuch Cao Fu wandering at the door.

Cao Fu turned around and saw Chen Xianzhen, and immediately said: I heard that Mrs. Chen has gone to the river and is about to find you.

Please ask Cao Gong for a kilometer of face.Chen Xianzhen said.

Cao Fu held a wooden box and followed Chen Xianzhen into the main hall. Without hesitation, Cao Fu sat straight onto a bench and carefully placed the box in his hand on the square table.

Chen Xianzhen glanced at the box and asked: Eunuch Cao is here in person, what's the matter?

Cao Fu immediately opened the wooden box and said: This is a gift from the emperor himself, congratulations to Mrs. Chen.

Chen Xianzhen couldn't help but reach out to get it.

Cao Fu said: Oh, why don’t you thank me?

Zhu Gaoxu is not here.After hearing this, Chen Xianzhen didn't want to argue with Cao Fu, so she had to bow her knees and say, "I thank Your Majesty for your kindness and reward."

Then she took out a bag wrapped in satin and a hat from it. After pulling the red rope, she took out a set of clothes from it.

Cao Fu said next to him: The emperor personally drew pictures and imperial pen descriptions, and the clothes made by the Weaving Courtyard in Zhongdu were specially made for Niang Chen.The emperor also named him "Odai", which means "Ao Dai".The emperor said that if Mrs. Chen likes, please accept it, and it doesn’t matter if she doesn’t like it.

When Chen Xianzhen heard this, she looked at Cao Fu in surprise and blurted out: Really?

Cao Fu glared and said: If we have a hundred courages from our family, our family will not dare to forge the imperial edict!

Chen Xianzhen felt mixed feelings, and the strength on her arms seemed to be too strong.

She used to think that Zhu Gaoxu didn't take her seriously at all, and sometimes she guessed that Zhu Gaoxu would be angry because she always didn't follow Zhu Gaoxu's wishes... Suddenly, Zhu Gaoxu was so energetic that he made a set of clothes for her, which made Chen Xianzhen a little at a loss.

She was moved and could not let go of her long resentment immediately, so she felt very unstraight, just like her nose was uncomfortable but she couldn't sneeze for a long time.

After calming down a little, Chen Xianzhen felt a feeling of being doting and indulging.

After all, he was the most powerful and vast emperor of the Ming Dynasty among countless countries in the world. He did not retaliate against her for her disrespectful words and deeds, or even her intentions, but instead turned his favorable intentions.

Chen Xianzhen suddenly felt a little hot on her cheeks.

In short, this incident surprised her very much.

Her fingertips gently touched the clothes in her hand. The material was soft and delicate, and it was very comfortable to caress. It was plain white and there was light yellow embroidery on the edges of the clothes.

The pins are thin and neat, and they are very exquisitely made.

The hats also have similar styles among the people of Annan. They have a sharp top and a large veil, which is convenient for sunshade, but the hat in front of me is made of gauze silk.

Chen Xianzhen said: Your Majesty is like this to beautiful women?

Cao Fu shook his head and said: Look at what you said, how could the emperor be busy?How many women in the capital were crying and shouting to win the favor of the emperor. There were thousands of people in the palace alone, which was the number of people after the emperor cut off half of the emperor.

After he said that, he stood up a little anxiously: Mrs. Chen will give her a try. Our family still has something to do, so the emperor is about to have dinner.

Chen Xianzhen sent Cao Fu to the door before turning back and continued to appreciate the unique clothes.

The next morning, just dawned, Chen Xianzhen packed up and went straight to the nearby Zhongjun yard.After the Jinyiwei asked, he went in to report and then let her in.

When Chen Xianzhen arrived in the room, he saw Zhu Gaoxu sitting with four women, having dinner.The four women were more beautiful than the other, and two were wearing men's robes.

Zhu Gaoxu held the chopsticks, looked up at Chen Xianzhen, was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked: Has Madam Chen eaten?

Go back to Your Majesty, I have had breakfast.Chen Xianzhen stepped forward and bowed his knees. Your Majesty gave me a reward. I came to thank you.

Zhu Gaoxu looked at Chen Xianzhen and said: This style is indeed suitable for your figure.

Chen Xianzhen also thinks so, she tried it last night.

Compared with the beauties around Zhu Gaoxu, Chen Xian is really much shorter. This long dress that integrates the dress makes her figure look longer, graceful and delicate.

Wearing such clothing is more attractive than ordinary Hanfu, but there are trousers inside the skirt, which is not revealed at all when you look closely, and it is also reserved and pure like a robe skirt.

Anyway, Chen Xianzhen thinks that it looks much better than those clothes that expose a lot of skin to Zhenla Champa.

However, the beauties around Zhu Gaoxu seemed to have different eyes.Their expressions were gentle and calm, but Chen Xianzhen could feel that they didn't like themselves very much.

Zhu Gaoxu didn't say much, and said in a pretentious manner: The brigade is going to set off. Mrs. Chen will go back and prepare. If there is anything, please let Cao Fu arrange it for you.

Chen Xianzhen made a blessing and thanked her for giving up.
