Chapter 228 Private Meeting with Two Princesses (Part 1)

yes!

Why not listen to what the person involved thinks?

The words of Queen Mother Xu Ruoyun gave Chen Huaian an enlightenment and enlightenment when he was in trouble and confusion.

Regarding the appointment of a new queen, Chen Huaian did not need to look at the face of King Wu Ning, nor did he fear the threat of the thirty-six kingdoms of the Western Regions headed by the Uighur Khanate.

However, he must consider the thoughts of the two parties involved and examine the conduct of the two princesses more during the process of getting along.

After all, the future empress of Muyi Tianxia should not only represent the image of the harem of the new dynasty, but also be Chen Huaian's good wife.

The saying that marrying a good woman can bring prosperity to three generations will never be out of date.

As soon as he said it, Chen Huaian said goodbye to his mother, Queen Xu Ruoyun, and rushed to the Dragon City Palace in a hurry.

Ever since Princess Shujun, Liu Shujun, and Princess Pijia, Yue Qiluo, both arrived at Dragon City to stay, the original Jin Prince's Mansion seemed a bit inadequate.

Therefore, Xu Ruoyun bought a three-bedroom mansion for Liu Shujun and Yue Qiluo respectively, across the street from the Jin Palace, for their daily living.

In this way, not only did Liu Shujun and Yue Qiluo have their own private space, but it also made it easier for them to go to the palace to pay respects on weekdays.

This was Chen Huaian's first visit to these two princesses' residences.

The first thing he arrived at was the residence of Princess Shujun Liu Shujun.

At this time, Liu Shujun was watering the flowers in the back garden of the courtyard, but suddenly he saw the housekeeper of the courtyard rushing over and reported: "Princess, the emperor has arrived!"

Um?

Liu Shujun tilted his little head and his expression was stagnant. He was obviously confused and had not yet reacted.

The maid on the side quickly echoed: "Princess, Your Majesty, Your Majesty is here!"

ah!

The next moment, Liu Shujun was suddenly startled. After coming to his senses, he hurriedly asked: "Steward Wang, Your Majesty, is Your Majesty here with the Queen Mother?"

Steward Wang shook his head and said: "Back to the princess, the emperor came for a private visit incognito. He is drinking tea in the main hall. He specially ordered the villain to come and ask the princess to move to the main hall!"

"What, the Queen Mother didn't come?"

Liu Shujun's little face suddenly turned crimson, and he walked towards the main hall at a loss.

After taking a few steps, he suddenly realized what he was saying to himself: "No, I have to change my clothes first, Xiao Hong, where is Xiao Hong?"

"Princess, I'm here!"

...

In the main hall, Chen Huaian was drinking tea while recalling every detail of his acquaintance with Princess Shujun Liu Shujun.

Strictly speaking, he and Liu Shujun have known each other for more than three years.

However, the two of them met more times than they could count, and they were all in public.

Like today, the scene where the two met alone was the second time, including the time when the prince Chen Huai'an heroically saved the beauty when they met on the banks of the Qinhuai River.

Speaking of which, the fate between Chen Huaian and Liu Shujun can be traced back to when Chen Huaian was born into the New Dynasty with the memories of his previous life, that is, 25 years ago, with a face that he had almost forgotten.

Travelers with memories of two lives are always lonely.

In the dead of night for countless nights, Chen Huaian could not help but think of the little things before the time travel, and the people and things in that world.

Until, those about the people and things before time travel gradually became blurred under the endless erosion of time, and were eventually cut into incomplete pictures.

But that face similar to Princess Shujun Liu Shujun's face became clear again from blurring at night by the Qinhuai River three years ago, until Chen Huaian could no longer forget it.

This is also the reason why Chen Huaian has a different kind of affection for Liu Shujun.

It has nothing to do with her status as princess or princess.

It is only related to people and things that Chen Huaian has been dusted with for many years, and it seems that he will never be able to remember the details clearly.

Just as Chen Huaian was recalling the past, a burst of light and sporadic footsteps came, bringing Chen Huaian's thoughts back to reality.

Immediately afterwards, a beautiful figure in white clothes appeared in the hall.

Chen Huaian raised his head and happened to meet Liu Shujun's eyes, which had just entered the door.

What caught the eye was a pretty figure wearing a long white dress. The skirt was light and elegant, like a fairy descending to earth.

In an instant, Chen Huaian's thoughts were brought back to that night on the Qinhuai River three years ago.

He clearly remembered that the poor and beautiful figure was also wearing a white dress.

"Shujun has met the emperor!"

At this time, a voice like a silver bell echoed in Chen Huaian's ears. It was Liu Shujun's voice greeting him.

Chen Huaian also recovered his thoughts, waved his hands with a smile, and said: "Princess Shujun, there is no need to be formal!"

Then, he raised his hand and ordered: "You all, please step back!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

All the royal servants in the main hall, as well as the Jinwu Guards who were responsible for protecting the emperor's safety, retreated one after another, not forgetting to thoughtfully close the two wooden doors of the main hall.

Xiao Po, the commander of the Jinwu Guard, drove all the Jinwu Guard soldiers out of the courtyard outside the main hall. He stood guard at the entrance of the courtyard alone, standing there with his back straight and like a javelin.

In the main hall, only Chen Huaian and Liu Shujun were left, and the atmosphere seemed a bit awkward!

Liu Shujun's face turned red and he lowered his head, not daring to look at Chen Huaian.

But he couldn't help being curious, and tried to secretly glance at the emperor in front of him, who had already become the emperor. His eyes were full of the heroic figure of him beating up the gangsters and saving himself by the Qinhuai River three years ago.

Inadvertently, Liu Shujun stole a glance at Chen Huaian, and was caught by the latter.

At that moment, Liu Shujun's heart was pounding for no reason, and he felt as if there was a raging fire burning on his ears and face.

In the end, it was Chen Huaian who took the lead in speaking to break the awkward atmosphere.

He went straight to the point and said, "Princess Shujun, the civil and military officials of the Sixteen States of Youyun jointly wrote a letter to me to enthrone you as the queen of the new dynasty. Do you know about this?"

Ah?

Upon hearing this, Liu Shujun, who originally felt hot in her ears and face, suddenly felt like someone poured a bucket of cold water on her head, and she stood there in shock.

Liu Shujun raised his head, blinked his innocent eyes, and said in disbelief: "Your Majesty, how could this happen?"

"How could they do this?"

After a pause, Liu Shujun summoned up the courage to ask: "Your Majesty, did my father instruct the officials of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun to write a letter to force a marriage?"

Looking at Liu Shujun's reaction, Chen Huaian was basically certain that Liu Shujun was not aware of this matter.

Although the queen mother did not mention whether King Wuning was involved in this matter.

But, if there was no approval from King Wuning, Chen Huaian thought that the officials of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun would not have the courage to take the lead in doing this.

However, all this is not important.

Chen Huaian shook his head and said: "Princess Shujun, none of this is important!"

"I just want to hear your thoughts. As a party involved, what do you think of my enthroning the queen of the new dynasty?"
