A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min

Jiang Ziyan nodded, feeling a little nervous. This Elder Chen only looked at her a few times, but she already felt oppressed.

Chen Ge Lao said again: "I will take you in to pour tea for the emperor later. You can take the opportunity to take off the veil on your face. As for what happens next, it's all up to you."

Even he couldn't figure out how the emperor would react.

This Miss Jiang might be able to rise to prominence and become a phoenix. Or she might not get any benefit at all, but be punished or even lose her life.

Jiang Ziyan didn't know what to say, so she could only thank him politely.

Chen Ge Lao called his followers again and asked, "Where is Song Zan?"

This matter involves the former queen of the Song family, so it is better to avoid Song Zan.

The attendant replied in a low voice: "Loyalty Marquis is not in Biluo Residence at the moment. It seems that someone called him out to talk."

Since the emperor was resting, there was no need for them to accompany him.

Chen Zheng said: "That's great, let's go see the emperor now."

It would be easier if Song Zan was not around. If Song Zan was around, he would have to find a way to lure people away.

The attendant prepared freshly brewed tea and handed it to Jiang Ziyan. Jiang Ziyan took it steadily and followed Chen Zheng to the main room of Biluoju.

Chen Zheng walked outside the main room and said to Pu Yi who was guarding the door: "Commander Fu, please tell him that I want to see His Majesty."

Puyi was respectful to the cabinet ministers. Upon hearing this, he politely asked Lord Chen to wait for a moment and turned around to report.

Soon, Puyi invited Chen Zheng in, and Jiang Ziyan naturally followed behind Chen Zheng.

When I entered the room, Emperor Xuande was sitting on a small couch by the window, looking at the chess book in his hand.

Seeing Chen Zheng coming in, he asked, "Have the bride's reception come back?"

At this time, Chen Zheng wouldn't come to him to discuss state affairs, right?

He rarely gets a chance to relax for a while, and he doesn't want to have his mood disturbed.

After Chen Zheng bowed, he said, "The wedding procession has not returned yet. I got some good tea and thought that Your Majesty could drink some tea to wake you up after a rest, so I took the initiative to bring it in."

Emperor Xuande became excited after hearing this. "Oh? Since Minister Chen said it's a good tea, I think it must be good. Bring it here for me to taste."

Chen Zheng turned around and gave Jiang Ziyan a wink. Upon hearing that, Jiang Ziyan immediately stepped forward and handed the tea in her hand to Emperor Xuande.

Just as the tea was about to be handed to Emperor Xuande, Jiang Ziyan's knees suddenly went weak and she threw herself towards Emperor Xuande.

She was also afraid of hurting the dragon's body, so when she poured the tea out, she tilted it to the side.

Some tea was splashed on Emperor Xuande's shoulder, and the teacup flew out, brushing against his shoulder.

Jiang Ziyan screamed, and then the veil on her face fell off, and Emperor Xuande held her shoulders.

Emperor Xuande's original intention was to let her stand firm and not suppress him.

But when he looked up and saw the face of the person in front of him, he was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth. He murmured, "Zi Ning?"

At this moment, Jiang Ziyan also stood firmly, then pursed her lower lip and sniffed twice.

This was a little action that the late empress often did when she was young. Emperor Xuande's breathing suddenly stagnated. It seemed that he was looking at Jiang Ziyan, or as if he was looking at someone else through Jiang Ziyan.

Of course he knew that this was not his Zi Ning. His Zi Ning had been gone for almost twenty years.

But he still couldn't bear to look away, and his eyes were always on Jiang Ziyan.

Jiang Ziyan was wearing a purple embroidered skirt with lilies, calm and dignified. Purple was Zining's favorite color in the past.

And those phoenix eyes, with a slight arc at the corners, are exactly the same as Zi Ning's.

Emperor Xuande looked at her carefully and felt that Zi Ning's shadow was in every part. Her hair, jewelry, makeup, clothes. Even her subconscious movements could evoke memories in his heart.

Chen Zheng, who was standing aside, lowered his head, but his eyes were always focused on Emperor Xuande's expression.

After he was somewhat confident, he said, "Your Majesty's clothes are wet. Why don't you let Miss Ziyan help you change clothes?"

Emperor Xuande knew that this person had deliberately sent it to him. As for whether to accept it or not, it all depended on his will.

He stared at the woman in front of him. Just because she looked like Zi Ning, she had no choice but to enter the palace. He couldn't accept someone who looked so much like Zi Ning serving other men.

This was also something Princess Yongjia had expected, so she sent people in so confidently.

Emperor Xuande hesitated for a moment and said, "You can go out."

Chen Zheng understood what he meant, walked back to the door, opened it and prepared to leave.

It was just a coincidence that at that moment, Marquis of Loyalty Song Zan came over.

Through the crack in the door, Song Zan just happened to see the scene inside the house.

The emperor looked stunned, and there was even a hint of indescribable lust on his face.

The woman standing opposite the emperor had her back to the door, so he couldn't see her face clearly. But judging from her figure, she seemed young and must be a young lady from some family.

Song Zan's heart sank. Could it be that the Emperor wanted to...

The wedding procession in front came back immediately, and no matter what the emperor wanted, it was useless.

He raised his voice and shouted: "Your Majesty, I have something to ask for your attention."

His shout frightened Chen Zheng. Chen Zheng's hand slipped, and the door that was about to close was opened again.

Song Zan didn't care about the rules and walked into the house in two or three steps.

Emperor Xuande glared at him and asked in a deep voice: "Did I summon you? You came in on your own. Are there any rules?"

It was not the first time that Song Zan broke the rules, and he was not afraid. He went forward to tell the emperor that the wedding procession was coming back and the emperor should preside over the wedding.

But before he could finish his words, Jiang Ziyan turned around and stood aside.

Song Zan also saw Jiang Ziyan's appearance clearly, and the words that were on the tip of his tongue were stuck in his throat.

After being absent-minded for a moment, Song Zan immediately understood what was going on. Everyone in the court knew that the emperor could not forget the late queen. Someone took advantage of this and intended to step on his sister to climb up the social ladder.

Song Zan immediately lost his good impression of the person in front of him. He looked at Jiang Ziyan with disgust, then turned to look at Emperor Xuande.

"The Emperor wants to take her in?"

He asked directly and without any emotion.

Chen Zheng, who had already retreated to the door, was full of admiration. Apart from Marquis Zhongyi, who else would dare to ask such a question?

Emperor Xuande felt as if his inner thoughts were seen through and immediately felt humiliated.

He scolded coldly: "This has nothing to do with you. When did I ever need you to ask about my private affairs?"

If it were someone else, they would have to kneel on the ground and apologize. However, Song Zan's expression did not change, and if you looked closely, you could even see a hint of sarcasm in the corner of his lips.

"I dare not. Your Majesty is the ruler of all people. Let alone favoring a woman, even if he builds ten more palaces to support women, I have no right to interfere."

"If the emperor doesn't find someone who looks like Zi Ning, I won't bother to say anything."

"But what is this?"

"From your perspective, Your Majesty, are you planning to capture this person right here in Prince Ning's mansion?"

"Your Majesty, have you ever thought about what Zi Ning would think if she knew about this? What would the guests outside think of her? How would His Royal Highness Prince Ning deal with it?"

"There is also the Ning Wangfei who will soon marry into the family. She is in mourning. Is it appropriate for the emperor to do this?"

Song Zan used to speak more casually than others, but at least he would consider the emperor's face. This was the first time he did this.

Emperor Xuande was so angry that he gritted his teeth and cursed: "Song Zan, you are so presumptuous, am I too pampering you?"
