Chapter 83: Entering the Palace
Will Zhang Jiu really come back early as he said obediently?
The answer is naturally no. It was not until the next morning that Qin Ce, who had been waiting all night, did not wait for Zhang Jiu's figure, so he believed that Zhang Jiu left behind the fact that he lived in the inn, knowing that Zhang Jiu would sleep until the sun was high every day before getting up. , Qin Ce resigned to his fate and went to the palace to pay his respects first, and planned to arrest him himself when he came back.
Seeing Qin Ce's return, Zhao Chan was overjoyed, "Ce'er, you're back, have you been okay all the way?"
"Thank you, Queen Mother, for your concern. My son is fine." Qin Ce saluted and sat beside Zhao Chan.
"Have people brought back?" This is what Zhao Chan is most concerned about. Time has passed and she has gradually accepted that Qin Ce wants to marry a man. Daughter-in-law Zhao Chan has always maintained a curious heart, what kind of person can make Qin Ce fall in love with each other.
A smile appeared in Qin Ce's eyes, "Bring it back"
Seeing Qin Ce's reaction, Zhao Chan sighed slightly in her heart, but just mentioning this person, Qin Ce's icy face began to smile, which showed that he was already in too deep, "When is Ce'er going to bring him into the palace, let me see?"
"It's all up to the queen mother to decide." Qin Ce is not worried that Zhao Chan will embarrass Zhang Jiu. It will be a matter of time to meet the parents, and it doesn't matter to him at any time.
"Since that's the case, it's better to hit the sun than to choose a day. Let's make it today. I'll have someone announce him into the palace."
This time Qin Ce was a little surprised, he didn't know that Zhao Chan was such a short-tempered person, "Mother, are you a little hasty today?"
"Why don't I feel rushed?" Zhao Chan smiled, "Is there any inconvenience for Ce'er?"
It’s not inconvenient, he’s just worried that Zhang Jiu hasn’t woken up yet, and Zhang Jiu won’t be in his mansion now, after all these twists and turns, it will be a long time before Zhang Jiu comes to the palace, it seems a little bad to make Zhao Chan wait like this for a long time .
Zhao Chan automatically took Qin Ce's silence as tacit consent, and immediately ordered someone to announce Zhang Jiu's entry to the palace before Qin Ce refused.
"Mother Queen" Qin Ce thinks it's better to remind in advance, "Xiao Jiu was not at my house when he went to visit a friend yesterday, and it may take some time to find him."
Is this a night out?Zhao Chan frowned slightly, then thought of Zhang Jiu as a man and felt relieved, "It's okay, I can still wait for this little time."
As Qin Ce expected, Zhang Jiu hadn't got up at this time, and was sleeping soundly. Zhang Jiu had no plans to get up until Gothe found him. He heard someone call him while he was sleeping, and Zhang Jiu turned over. He continued to sleep, and snorted dissatisfied at the fact that someone disturbed his sleep.
Jiang Ning smiled at Gao De, and continued to call people.
Being disturbed all the time while sleeping, Zhang Jiu finally opened his eyes in dissatisfaction, and glared at the person who disturbed his sleep, which was about to set off a violent storm.
Jiang Ning was a little tangled in his heart, he really didn't want to take over the matter of getting Zhang Jiu up, but he couldn't wait, so he had to say bravely, "Jiuye, hurry up and tidy up, the empress is going to announce you to enter the palace."
Although his head is not clear yet, Zhang Jiu still firmly grasped the key point, the queen, enter the palace, these four words entered Zhang Jiu's mind with absolute strength, which made him suddenly fully awake, and he was no longer in the mood Forget about being woken up.
"Mr. Zhang, the empress is announcing you to enter the palace. I have brought all your clothes and things you need. You should pack up and enter the palace quickly. Don't let the empress wait for a long time." A little anxious, making the queen wait for a long time for the first time may leave a bad impression, so they must hurry up.
Zhang Jiu was stunned for a while before accepting this fact, "Why did the queen announce me to enter the palace?"
"Of course I want to meet this 'daughter-in-law' who is about to get married." Jiang Ning answered for him, isn't that the case for all parents?But thinking about Zhang Jiu and Qin Ce's shocking lovers, Jiang Ning became worried again, "Master Jiu, I think something is wrong. You said that after entering the palace, the empress will not intentionally embarrass you, right?"
"Mr. Zhang, Mr. Jiang, you can rest assured about this. Why is the queen empress very good? She won't embarrass Mr. Zhang, and there is His Highness here, and His Highness will help take care of you." Gao De didn't worry about this at all.
"That's for sure." Jiang Ning doesn't quite believe that any parent is willing to let their son marry a man. According to Jiang Ning's opinion, Zhang Jiu's entry into the palace this time, the embarrassment is not trivial, and even the possibility of losing his life is very small. Yes, thinking about it like this, Jiang Ning suddenly didn't want Zhang Jiu to enter the palace at all.
However, if the queen's call is rejected, it is considered a disobedience, right?It was impossible not to go, Jiang Ning felt that he had to pin all his hopes on Qin Ce at this time. In any case, Qin Ce should not let Zhang Jiu have an accident.
Zhang Jiu also had the same thoughts as Jiang Ning, but Zhang Jiu still had some confidence in Qin Ce. If there was no way to protect himself, Qin Ce would not let him take risks.
As for what will happen to the queen, at that time he will only have soldiers to cover the water and earth.
Putting aside his worries in this regard, Zhang Jiu began to think about meeting Qin Ce's parents for the first time, should he prepare some gifts as a meeting gift?After pondering for a while, Zhang Jiu whispered a few words to Jiang Ning, and saw Jiang Ning running out in a hurry.
When Zhang Jiu got everything in order, Jiang Ning came back very quickly. Seeing his panting appearance, Zhang Jiu patted him on the shoulder, "Thank you, brother."
"If we say thank you again, I'm going to get angry," Jiang Ning feigned anger.
Zhang Jiu smiled and set foot on the road to the palace.
It was the first time to enter the palace and meet the parents for the first time. Although Zhang Jiu was calm on the face, he was still a little nervous, especially since he was going to meet Daqin's mother.
Fortunately for Zhang Jiu, there was always a sedan chair to travel from the inn to the palace. Otherwise, he would have walked so much from the time he got up to the present that his chest would have been stuck to his back due to exhaustion and hunger. You know he hasn't had time to eat yet?It would be very rude if the stomach growled in front of the queen.
She had made sufficient mental preparations along the way, but when she got off the sedan chair and was about to see the queen, Zhang Jiu couldn't help becoming nervous, and couldn't help but take a few deep breaths.
The person who entered the hall to report quickly came out to lead Zhang Jiu in.
With a distance of dozens of steps, Zhang Jiu's heartbeat continued to speed up, until seeing Qin Ce's smiling gaze at him, Zhang Jiu suddenly felt relieved for no reason, and her heartbeat also calmed down.
From the corner of the eye, she glanced at the mother of the country who was sitting on the top of the phoenix crown and the Chinese dress. Zhang Jiu bowed and saluted, "Craftsman Zhang Jiu sees the empress."
In Zhang Jiu's eyes, Zhao Chan's temperament and appearance are naturally superior, somewhat similar to Qin Ce, which made him feel close to Zhao Chan.
Compared with Zhang Jiu's flashing eyes, Zhao Chan looked at Zhang Jiu more deliberately, almost staring at Zhang Jiu intently, as if trying to see through him.
Zhao Chan kept silent, Zhang Jiu kept bowing, but Qin Ce couldn't stand it any longer, and coughed lightly to remind Zhao Chan to get Zhang Jiu to stand up.
"They're all from my own family, so there's no need to be too polite," Zhao Chan said, looking away, feeling quite satisfied with the person Qin Ce chose.
"Thank you, empress." Zhang Jiu straightened up, moved his stiff body slightly, and cast an unkind look at Qin Ce. He was not mentally prepared to find him in such a hurry.
Qin Ce gave him a helpless look. It wasn't his fault, and he was also somewhat unexpected.
Zhang Jiu didn't agree with him, but still glared at Qin Ce, and went back to wait and see.
Taking into account the small movements of the two people below, Zhao Chan almost exclaimed, is this really that serious Qin Ce?There is still such a side, Zhao Chan tried her best to calm her mind, she felt that she really had to look at Zhang Jiu with admiration, and actually turned Qin Ce into this.
But this should be a good sign, Qin Ce like this is more like a lively person, Qin Ce was too restrained before, thinking about it this way, Zhao Chan looked at Zhang Jiu with a softer gaze, maybe Qin Ce chose Really right, she should also support his choice.
