Chapter 858

Xiao Wenyu suddenly thought of something, his grandfather, Mr. Chen, obviously took what Xie Jiashuyou taught his father, but in the end he said that he confiscated the money and gained his reputation for nothing.

The Chen family is indeed crooked from top to bottom.

Xiao Wenyu waved his hand coldly, ordering someone to pull Chen Yuan out and slap his mouth.

Zhou Youjin also hated Chen Yuan extremely, something. He dared to embarrass Mrs. Zhou Guo.

You have to know how much Mrs. Zhou Guo spent on educating His Majesty, but in the end, a little cousin of hers came to accuse Mrs. Zhou Guo. It is conceivable how angry His Majesty was.

Zhou Youjin furiously ordered the eunuch to pull Chen Yuan down and slap her mouth, the kind that slapped her heavily.

Chen Yuan wanted to say more, but unfortunately the eunuch covered her mouth and dragged her out.

The beautiful girls outside didn't know what was going on inside, and their faces turned pale with fright, and the beautiful girls inside also turned pale and dared not say a word.

But everyone also knows one thing, His Majesty values ​​Mrs. Zhou Guo very much, and they will be more polite to Mrs. Zhou Guo in the future.

Xiao Wenyu punished Chen Yuan, and raised his hand to signal the girls to leave.

In the final draft hall, only Xiao Wenyu, Lu Jiao and the queen were left.

Xiao Wenyu looked up at Queen Pei Yu.

Everything that happened today was caused by the empress. If the empress hadn't decided to let Chen's daughter enter the palace to run for election, so many things would not have happened.

The queen looked at Xiao Wenyu's eyes, stood up anxiously and confessed: "Your Majesty, everything is the fault of my concubine."

Xiao Wenyu said displeasedly: "The queen should not go against my will in the future."

On the one hand, Lu Jiao hurriedly smoothed things over, because Xiao Wenyu had just ascended the throne, so it was not suitable for a conflict with the queen, and behind the queen was the Pei family. Another queen is pregnant, if two people have a conflict, it is likely to affect the fetus.

"Since your Majesty is here, let's take a look together."

After hearing Lu Jiao's words, Xiao Wenyu immediately thought of the grievances his mother suffered today. He hurried up to Lu Jiao and apologized, "Mom, you have been wronged today."

Lu Jiao was really displeased at first, but when she saw Xiao Wenyu's apology, she immediately smiled and said, "Okay, what's the big deal, sit down quickly and see which beautiful girls are selected for the palace."

After she finished speaking, she smiled and greeted the queen to sit down.

The queen breathed a sigh of relief and sat down.

But when he saw Xiao Wenyu, he landed on Lu Jiao's hand, and looked at the beautiful girl selected by Lu Jiao's hand.

The queen felt a little upset and was in a bad mood.

Your Majesty, did he treat Mrs. Zhou Guo too kindly? She is his queen, and she is pregnant with his child.

In fact, Lu Jiao just wanted to rescue the queen. Seeing that Xiao Wenyu no longer blamed the queen, she stuffed the selected beautiful girls into Xiao Wenyu's hands.

"Look at it."

Xiao Wenyu looked it over and found that the beautiful girls selected by Lu Jiao were either the daughters of important officials in the court, or the daughters of rising stars in the court. Upstart.

After reading it once, Xiao Wenyu chuckled lightly: "Mother chose very well."

As soon as he finished speaking, the queen on one side came to her senses, and quickly handed the beautiful girl she had selected to Xiao Wenyu.

"Your Majesty, this is the beautiful girl selected by my concubines earlier. Your Majesty should also take a look."

Xiao Wenyu didn't say anything, and reached out to take it and read it again.

There was a slight conflict between the show girl selected by the queen and the person selected by Lu Jiao. Xiao Wenyu looked carefully and couldn't help frowning slightly.

Among the beautiful women selected by the queen, several of them are close to the Pei family.

So is she trying to sell favors?

Xiao Wenyu couldn't help feeling disgusted in her heart, as a queen, she didn't think about everything for him, but only cared about Pei's family, heh.

Although Xiao Wenyu was displeased, he didn't get angry, and only responded lightly.

Lu Jiao reminded Xiao Wenyu: "There are still a few beautiful girls left, Your Majesty will take a look."

"it is good."

The few beautiful women left outside the hall walked in all the way, because His Majesty was there, they were extra cautious, and there was no mistake.

After Xiao Wenyu looked at it for a while, he ticked two of them casually, signaling them to retreat, and did not say whether to stay or not from the beginning to the end.

The show girls who entered the palace for election today were quickly sent out of the palace, except for Chen Yuan, whose face was swollen from the beating, who stayed in the palace for the time being.

The old lady of Cheng'enhou's Mansion was quickly brought into the palace by the eunuch, and when she saw her granddaughter, she didn't recognize her. It was Chen Yuan who cried and called her, and she recognized her.

"Hey, grandma, save me."

At this moment, Chen Yuan was afraid. She had always admired and liked the young emperor Xiao Wenyu, but at this moment, she was inexplicably afraid of Xiao Wenyu.

Now she doesn't want to enter the palace, she just wants to go home.

Mrs. Chen saw Chen Yuan's appearance, and there was something she didn't understand. Chen Yuan must have done something to annoy His Majesty and get beaten.

Mrs. Chen didn't dare to enter the palace anymore, and she entered the palace under Zhou or Jin's urging.

"Madam Cheng Enhou, please come in"

Mrs. Chen bit her head and went all the way into the hall. In the hall, the queen was not there, because she was pregnant, Xiao Wenyu ordered people to send the queen back to Kunning Palace.

In the main hall, only the emperor and Lu Jiao's mother and son were left.

Mrs. Chen hurriedly saluted: "My wife has seen His Majesty."

Xiao Wenyu didn't even wake her up, just stared at her fixedly, it was Lu Jiao who called her up.

Mrs. Chen is getting old, don't let anything happen in the palace, then His Majesty will definitely suffer a bad reputation.

"Get up, old lady."

Mrs. Chen was nervous and didn't dare to move for a while, Lu Jiao glanced at Xiao Wenyu, Xiao Wenyu said, "Old lady, please get up."

Mrs. Chen dared to thank Xiao Wenyu after hearing Xiao Wenyu's words.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Xiao Wenyu bestowed a seat, and then said slowly: "I remember that I decreed that in this draft, the right-age daughters of senior members above the third rank can enter the palace to participate in the election. I don't know what the Chen family intends to send their daughter to the palace. Taking care of my will, resisting it and not obeying it?"

When a big hat was buttoned down, Mrs. Chen's face turned pale with fright, she knelt down again with a plop, and said repeatedly: "My wife is guilty."

Xiao Wenyu said unhurriedly: "Ms. Chen's conduct is bad, and she utters wild words. The daughter of a fourth-rank official actually contradicts Mrs. Chao First-rank. Who gave her the courage, your Chen family?"

Mrs. Chen was sweating profusely, and she cursed Chen Yuan inwardly. Didn't she tell her to be polite to Mrs. Zhou Guo? Why did he bump into Mrs. Zhou Guo?

But Mrs. Chen could tell by this time that His Majesty didn't have the Chen family in his heart at all, and the gifts he gave to the Chen family before were all superficial.

It's because they thought badly.

Mrs. Chen regretted it endlessly.

The first Xiao Wenyu spoke again: "Does the old lady know my heart?"
