It's Mrs. Wen's birthday today, and not many people came to celebrate her birthday, so we couldn't have a banquet, so we had to have a meal together with our family, which was considered a family banquet.
Lobby.
At this time, everyone had just finished eating and were sitting together chatting. No one cared about Wen Nianruan who did not come to eat. For them, it was just a good idea not to come so as not to disturb their interest.
At this time, the housekeeper rushed over anxiously and interrupted everyone's conversation: "Master, Madam, the Imperial Master is here."
Everyone was flattered, and no one expected that this normally indifferent and elegant Imperial Master would come to visit.
"Quickly, please invite the Imperial Master to come in."
Wen Decheng quickly got up and went to greet him.
Xiao Weifeng's face darkened slightly, because he and Yun Chenan were not in the same camp, and they had nothing to say when they met.
Yun Chenan and Xiao Yi were born in Prince Rongning's palace, and were also members of the royal family. They were cousins with Xiao Weifeng, but the three of them had never had much intersection, and they had different paths and did not seek each other's side.
As a national advisor, Yun Chenan assists Xiao Jinran, so he can only have a hostile relationship with Xiao Weifeng.
Xiao Yi, on the other hand, does not stand in any camp and does whatever he wants, and no one can do anything to him.
After a moment, Yun Chenan walked in slowly, his white flowing sleeves swaying gently, capturing all the elegance in the world, and his gentle brows and eyes were dyed with a noble and elegant smile, showing a bit of alienation.
The eyes of everyone in the hall were astonished. They had all heard that the Imperial Master was unparalleled in the world, and it was really rare to see his grace.
Wen Zhiyan had just met Yun Chenan not long ago. When they met again, he was still impressed by his stunning beauty and couldn't help but blush.
This was the first time Shen Lingzhi saw Yun Chenan. She was so amazed that there was no one else in her eyes.
Even Wen Ruchu, who was usually dignified and elegant, couldn't help showing shyness, and her beautiful eyes couldn't help but wander around Yun Chenan.
She had met Yun Chenan once or twice before when attending palace banquets, but only from a distance. She had never had such close contact.
Everyone stepped forward to salute, and even Li Huachun put down his arrogant posture and adopted a respectful attitude.
Yun Chen'an took out a brocade box and presented it to him with humility and courtesy: "Today is Mrs. Wen's birthday. I am a little late. Please forgive me. This small gift is for Mrs. Wen. I wish Mrs. Wen happiness.
Like the East China Sea."
"Your Excellency, you are very polite. It is an honor for our family to come to congratulate Mrs. Wen on her birthday," Wen Decheng said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, the Imperial Master is so polite."
Everyone agreed.
Mrs. Wen was even more flattered, her hands trembling when she received the gift: "I thank you, Master."
It is her lifetime honor to have a national master congratulate her on her birthday.
After giving the gifts, everyone quickly gave up their seats, letting Yun Chen sit in the first place.
Li Huachun turned to look at Wen Ruchu and gave him a look: "Ruchu, pour tea for the Imperial Master."
"Yes, mother."
Wen Ruchu had a smile on her face, folded her hands on her chest, and stepped forward to pour a cup of tea for Yun Chenan: "Please have some tea, Master Imperial Master."
"Thank you, Miss Fifth."
Yun Chenan nodded with a smile, his smile a little distant. He put the tea poured by Wen Ruchu aside and did not move it.
Wen Ruchu raised her eyes and took a peek at Yun Chenan, with a thin layer of red on her pretty face.
Wen Ruchu, who has always been reserved and composed, can't help but get confused when he sees Yun Chenan's appearance.
Shen Lingzhi and Wen Zhiyan were not qualified to step forward, so they could only stand by with envious expressions on their faces.
Xiao Weifeng, who was sitting at the lower right corner, stared at the tea cup that was turning slightly in his hand, with a smile on his face and said: "The Imperial Preceptor is not in the palace to accompany the emperor in handling government affairs, how can he have time to come to Yong'an Marquis Mansion to congratulate Mrs. Wen?
life?"
When you open your mouth, it means a bit of tit-for-tat.
Yun Chenan smiled lightly and responded: "How could King Wen think that the emperor did not ask me to come to congratulate Mrs. Wen on her birthday?"
The movement of turning the teacup in his hand froze, and Xiao Weifeng curled his lips: "It seems that the king really doesn't know that the emperor is quite interested in the Hou Mansion."
These words made the atmosphere in the lobby freeze for a moment.
Wen Decheng was even more frightened. Everyone knew that the Wen family had secretly sided with His Highness King Wen, and the Emperor's current concern for the Wen family would make His Highness King Wen feel that the Wen family had second thoughts.
Yun Chenan glanced at the stiff faces of everyone, and naturally knew what they were thinking.
He seemed to ask unintentionally: "I heard that Concubine Wen also came to congratulate Mrs. Wen on her birthday today. Why didn't you see her?"
Li Huachun immediately reacted: "Oh, Concubine Wen is feeling a little unwell and is resting in the yard."
"So that's it."
Yun Chen nodded calmly, a hint of amusement flashed across his downcast eyes.
In order to prevent the atmosphere from being awkward, Wen Decheng quickly found a topic to chat about, and other people also chimed in and chimed in.
Xiao Weifeng lowered his eyes and seemed a little absent-minded.
Wen Zhiyan's eyes were fixed on Yun Chenan from the beginning to the end, never moving away for a moment. He just kept looking at it blankly, eyes filled with spring water, and she didn't even respond to Aunt Jiang talking to her.
.
"Knowing words."
Aunt Jiang called into her ear again. Wen Zhiyan's shoulders trembled before he came back to his senses: "Auntie, what's the matter?"
"You kid, why are you distracted?" Aunt Jiang yelled.
"I-I just feel too bored."
Wen Zhiyan's face was still a little blushing, and as he spoke, his eyes always glanced at Yun Chenan unconsciously.
Aunt Jiang was a visitor, so she naturally saw that something was wrong with her. Following her eyes, she knew what Wen Zhiyan was thinking when she saw Yun Chenan.
Aunt Jiang did not scold Wen Zhiyan, but quietly nodded her forehead and smiled angrily: "You girl, you have quite high standards."
"Aunt~"
Being poked into his thoughts, Wen Zhiyan lowered his head shyly and blushed even more.
While everyone was chatting and not paying attention, Aunt Jiang quietly pulled Wen Zhiyan out of the lobby.
Wen Zhiyan was confused: "Auntie, why did you bring me out?"
Aunt Jiang: "Let's go see Concubine Wen."
"Why go see her?" Wen Zhiyan was a little reluctant.
She would rather watch the Imperial Preceptor in the lobby. Although she had no role to interrupt in their chat, she was content as long as she looked at the Imperial Preceptor quietly.
Aunt Jiang glared at Wen Zhiyan: "You silly boy, think about it with your brain, can you win over the Imperial Master who is far away on the high ridge with your own abilities?"
Wen Zhiyan was silent. It was really difficult for a little concubine like her to get in touch with the Imperial Master.
Aunt Jiang patted her hand: "But don't worry, even if you can't reach it now, you can always reach it by building a ladder."
Wen Zhiyan seemed to understand: "Auntie, what you mean is that we go to Fourth Sister for help?"
Aunt Jiang tapped her forehead and smiled angrily: "Your little brain has finally enlightened."
Now mother and daughter are helpless in the house and can only rely on Wen Nianruan for help. More importantly, mother and daughter feel that Wen Nianruan is easy to talk to and easy to handle.
If she was asked to establish a connection between Wen Zhiyan and Yun Chenan, could she refuse?
