Chapter 620 Peasant Woman 49
Tan You went to sea, and Chen Xi was the only one left in the capital. Anwen. Chen Xi herself was extremely busy, but no matter how busy she was, she still did not forget to look for Chen Cui.
Although he has experienced several years of turmoil in troubled times, Chen Xi does not believe that a selfish person like Chen Cui will have a bad life. The irony is that people who are upright and abide by their principles usually live unsatisfactory lives.
As for those who are selfish, they live a prosperous life. I have to say that this is a great irony.
But Chen Xi is now the emperor. If she wants to find someone, she can always find him. In particular, her intelligence agency has spread across the country. Even if Chen Cui is a female family member and hidden in the backyard of a deep house, she can still find it, but it will take more time.
After searching like this for more than a year, this afternoon, Chen Xi was reviewing the memorial. Liu Fu came in and said carefully: "Your Majesty, Chen Cui has been found. He is already outside."
Chen Xi holds The hand holding the brush paused, and the ink dripped onto the memorial, leaving a vermilion dot. Chen Xi composed herself, she put the brush on the brush washer and then looked at Liu Fu: "Call An Wen and Chen Xing, some things must be settled."
"Also, Please ask the clan elders and clan chiefs to return the The wives of the clan are coming."
Liu Fu lowered his head and said, "Yes, old slave, go now."
Soon, An Wen and Chen were busy at the Ministry of War and the hospital. Xing came to Qinzheng Hall. In the center of the hall, a woman about thirty-five or sixty-six years old was kneeling.
The woman is dressed very elegantly, her skin is fair and her fingers are slender, without any calluses from work. It can be seen that she has been raised rich these years.
An Wen glanced at her with a somewhat incomprehensible look. He knew the name Chen Cui, but how did he know what Chen Cui looked like? So now that he was hurriedly called to the Qinzheng Hall, he was indeed a little confused.
The same is true for Chen Xing. When Tan You came over, she was only three years old and could not remember anything. So after meeting Chen Cui, she just sat quietly and didn't care about the next development.
Clan leader Chen Tianshui and the clan elders also quickly arrived at Qinzheng Hall. After Chen Xi came to the throne, he did not lavishly reward his clan members, because everyone was born as an old farmer, and being a wealthy and idle man was the best choice.
Everyone is also very low-key on weekdays. Even if they are relatives of the emperor, they stick to their words and deeds.
This makes it more pure. Now that Chen Xi suddenly called him into the palace, the clan elders were inevitably a little surprised. Chen Tianshui's daughter-in-law, Aunt Cuihua, stared at Chen Xi for a long time, and then suddenly said loudly: "Master, isn't this Chen Cui?"
Chen Tianshui and several clan elders also recognized Chen Cui. The third grandfather even walked closer and looked at it for a long time before saying tremblingly: "It is indeed her."
Everyone was here, and Chen Xi closed his eyes. She looked at An Wen's face carefully, and then compared it with Chen Cui's appearance. After a long time, she felt a little regretful: "You and Chen Cui...don't look alike at all."
"It's not her, naturally. It's not like that," a voice suddenly came, and Chen Xi's eyebrows moved slightly. Chen Xing, who was sitting on the side, immediately stood up and jogged outside the palace.
The violence in Chen Xi's heart was suppressed somewhat by Tan You's words, but when she saw Chen Cui, she was still so angry that she smashed the table with hatred. Chen Cui shrank in fear, wishing he could find a corner to hide in.
An Wen felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He took two quick steps and stood in front of Chen Cui. Then he half-bent down and glanced at Chen Cui's face. It took him a long time to look away, but his fist hanging by his side became tighter and tighter. .
But he was completely unaware of Tan You's return.
Soon, Chen Xing took Tan You's arm and entered the Qinzheng Hall. Behind Tan You, Chen Yue also tied up a middle-aged man in his forties and a He An. A boy of about the same age.
The middle-aged man was wearing silk and satin and had a gold ring on his hand. He looked wealthy. But his eyes are very lively, and it can be seen at a glance that such a person is unstable and is not someone to be deeply friends with. The face of the young man next to him was very similar to Chen Cui. On the other hand, Anwen looked very similar to this middle-aged man.
Liu Fu was the first to salute, and then a large number of people in the palace fell to their knees: "I have seen the eldest lady."
Tan You stepped forward and supported several clan elders: "No need to talk about these falsehoods. Yes. Third Grandpa, several clan elders, if you kneel to me like this, your life will be shortened.”
After Chen Xi ascended the throne, her status naturally increased and she became the Supreme Emperor. It's just that Tan You doesn't like this title, and prefers everyone to call her eldest lady.
Chen Xi stood behind the desk, staring at Tan You. After a long time, he tugged at the corner of his lips and whispered, "Auntie, you are back."
Tan You looked at her He also raised his lips and smiled: "If you don't want to laugh, don't laugh. If you have to wear a mask in front of your family, your life will be too hopeless."
Chen Xi clenched her fist. She stared at the middle-aged man for a long time, and finally her eyes fell on An Wen: "It turns out that you don't seem to have a reason. You are actually the son of Qi Yaozong."
Chen Xi is not stupid. , as long as An Wen and Qi Yaozong are put together, the truth of the matter will be clear. Chen Cui, who was lying on the ground, shook his head wildly, and even Qi Yaozong wanted to argue.
Unexpectedly, Chen Yue kicked him and Qi Chen in the legs: "Kneel down!"
The two staggered after being kicked, and they knelt down in embarrassment before Chen Xi and Qi Chen In front of Anwen.
Tan You chuckled: "Not too stupid, let Qi Yaozong tell the truth."
She said and sat down on a nearby chair. When she looked at Qi Yaozong again, Tan You's tone became a little colder: "If you tell a lie, I will cut off one of Qi Chen's hands and just look at it." How many times can he hold on?"
Qi Yaozong trembled: "Don't you dare, Your Majesty? The people... the grassroots people will never dare to deceive anything..."
Chen Yue reprimanded impatiently: "Stop talking nonsense, stop whining."
Qi Yaozong knew that this matter could not be done well. Okay, he wanted to say something, but he opened his mouth but couldn't say a word.
Tan You held her head and looked at him jokingly. Seeing that he was silent for several breaths without opening his mouth, she gave Chen Yue a wink. How discerning is Chen Yue? She grabbed Qi Chen's arm and twisted it hard, causing Qi Chen to howl like a slaughtered pig.
"It hurts... Dad, help me! Mom, I'm in so much pain!"
Chen Cui felt sorry for her son. She took two steps on her knees and walked to Qi Chen: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, Qi Chen is your brother. , He also has the blood of the Chen family... You... How can you be so cruel to him? "
Qi Chen burst into tears in pain, but when he heard that he was the emperor's younger brother, he The miserable howl immediately retracted, and even a look of joy immediately appeared on his face.
Chen Xi glanced at Chen Cui: "What about Anwen? Isn't he a member of the Chen family?"
