Chapter three hundred and ninety seventh go to the palace
Chapter 397: Going to the Palace
"Yaozhou?" Chai Yan reacted immediately and asked: "Miss Gu, Master Gu went to Yaozhou. He should be back soon, right?"
Gu Ling nodded and said, "Well, it should be soon."
Although the answer was yes, there was a trace of worry on Gu Ling's face.
Jimo Qiao asked curiously: "Gu Ling, what on earth did your father go to Yaozhou for? Why hasn't he come back for so long?"
Chai Yan also wanted to know, so he looked at Gu Ling quietly, waiting for her answer.
Gu Ling slowly shook her head and said, "I don't know either, dad didn't tell me..."
Jimo Qiao suddenly had an idea and shouted: "Gu Ling, do you think this is good? Didn't the fifth prince and the others just pass by? I will catch up with him now to say hello and ask the fifth prince to help inquire about your father and the others when they arrive in Yaozhou. situation......"
Before Gu Ling could say anything, Doudou, who was eating, nodded hastily: "Okay..."
"No!" Gu Ling immediately denied Doudou: "Eat your food!"
Doudou shrank his neck and did not dare to speak out.
Jimo Qiao was confused and asked: "Why is it bad? It's not a secret that your father went to Yaozhou. It wouldn't be a bad idea to ask the fifth prince to help find out."
Gu Ling thought for a while, frowned and said: "How should I put it... This is not good! Dad is the commander of Wude Division, and there are Uncle Mo and Miao Secretary beside him, as well as a lot of Wude Division staff Brother, follow me. They haven't come back yet. There must be their reasons. If I ask the fifth prince to inquire, my father will definitely be angry with me in the future..."
"That's right..." Jimo Qiao felt that Gu Ling's words made sense, so he shook his head and said, "No, no, I didn't think about it..."
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Chai Yan intervened and said to Jimo Qiao: "You should consider these dishes! If you can't finish them in a while, I won't let you walk around without eating!"
"You can't eat while walking around!" Not to be outdone, Jimo Qiao immediately choked him, picked up his chopsticks, picked up the vegetables and started eating.
Gu Ling also laughed, so she temporarily put aside her worries and chatted and laughed with Jimo Qiao as she ate.

Two days later, it was time to rest.
After getting up in the morning, Chai Yan began to lift stone locks in the front yard, run and jump to exercise.
Just after the exercise, Uncle Cai brought breakfast, which was a bowl of meat porridge, a few steamed buns, and two plates of pickles.
Chai Yan was sitting in the dining room eating when he heard someone knocking on the door. Without Chai Yan's greeting, Uncle Cai quickly ran to open the door.
After a while, Uncle Cai came to the dining room and reported: "Master, the one who delivered the door plaque is here..."
"The one who gave me the door plaque?" Chai Yan wondered, I didn't make the door plaque...
Chai Yan put down the porridge bowl, stood up and walked towards the door of the house. Uncle Cai followed behind Chai Yan, keeping a distance of two steps.
When he arrived at the door, four young waiters saluted Chai Yan respectfully.
Chai Yan took a look and saw a newly made door plaque behind the guys. The door plaque was covered with red silk cloth, and there was a big red silk flower in the middle of the door plaque, which looked very happy.
A waiter nodded and said, "Master Chai, please take a look at this plaque. If there is nothing wrong with it, the smaller ones can be hung up."
Chai Yan asked: "Who asked you to send the plaque?"
The waiter said truthfully: "Master Chai, she is an official lady named Jimo."
Chai Yan immediately laughed. It turned out that the plaque was given by Jimo Qiao. She was thoughtful and knew that the plaque on her door was still empty.
Chai Yan walked over and uncovered the red silk cloth and took a look. On the door plaque were the two shining words "Chai Zhai", which looked very impressive.
"Well, no problem, hang it up!" Chai Yan nodded to the guys after reading.
Then, the guys started moving. They didn't know where they conjured up two tall ladders, one on the left and one on the right, leaning on both sides of the house door, and started working in an orderly manner.
The guys hung up the door plaque without even using a cup of tea.
Chai Yan and Cai Bo stood in the middle of the street with their hands clasped together. They carefully checked to make sure it was not hanging crookedly, and then happily returned to the door.
"Thanks for your hard work......."
As Chai Yan spoke, he took out his money bag from his arms and gave each person a small piece of silver as a reward.
The four waiters were so happy that they thanked them repeatedly before carrying the ladder and leaving excitedly. No wonder, this scrap of silver was regarded as half a month's wages for them.
At this time, the cook Cuiyun also ran out to look at the new door plaque. While looking at it, she happily praised: "Master, this door plaque is really impressive!"
After hearing this, Uncle Cai said: "That's right. Do you know who gave this plaque? I'll scare you to death if I tell you. It was given to our master by the eldest lady of the Jimo family!"
"That is...the eldest lady of the Jimo family?" Cuiyun looked surprised and hurriedly checked with Chai Yan: "Master, is it true?"
Chai Yan smiled and nodded.
Cuiyun praised in surprise: "Master, you are so awesome, so awesome!"
Then, Cuiyun and Uncle Cai started chatting with the Jimo family around the Xinmen plaque. Chaiyan didn't bother to care and went back to the dining room to continue having breakfast.
After breakfast, Chai Yan went to the study to read. The previous owner of this house was probably a scholar. The collection of books in the study was very rich. Chai Yan would often read it after moving here.
Just as he was looking at it fascinatedly, Uncle Cai suddenly appeared outside the study...
"Sir, someone from the Prince's Mansion has come and asked you to come over." Cai Bo reported.
Chai Yan put down his book and said, "I understand, tell them and I will come right away."
"Yes, sir." Uncle Cai turned and walked away.
Chai Yan didn't delay. He went back to his room, changed into a scholar's uniform, and went out.
I had met Chai Yan, the young eunuch from the Prince's Mansion. After a brief greeting, Chai Yan got in the car and drove.
Arriving at the gate of the Prince's Mansion, Chai Yan had just got out of the car when he was invited into another luxury car. There was a person sitting in the car, it was Xu Mao, the eunuch in charge of the Prince's Mansion.
"Eunuch Xu, I haven't seen you for a long time. Your spirits are getting better and better." Chai Yan said with a smile and cupped his hands.
Xu Mao turned his head enchantingly, waved his hand and said: "Sir Chai, please stop laughing at the Zajia family. Since the last time... the Zajia family has calmed down now..."
As he spoke, the carriage began to move slowly...
Chai Yan glanced out the window and asked politely: "Eunuch Xu, where are we going?"
Xu Mao smiled and said: "Go to the palace."
"Going to the palace?" Chai Yan was stunned and then asked: "Eunuch Xu, is there something wrong that happened so suddenly?"
Xu Mao kept a smile on his face and said slightly mysteriously: "Sir Chai, don't be anxious, you will know when the time comes..."
Therefore, Chai Yan stopped asking any more questions and sat in the car with his eyes closed, swaying and waiting to arrive at the palace.
The carriage stopped outside the palace gate, and Xu Mao and Chai Yan got out of the carriage one after another.
While Xu Mao went to negotiate with the guards at the palace gate, Chai Yan quickly walked over and took a few breaths of fresh air...
The smell of powder in the carriage along the way was mixed with the smell of urine, which almost killed Chai Yan!
