Chapter 34 Entering the Palace
Chapter 34 Entering the Palace
Shen Chenli heard the noise and turned around to look over.
Yu Tingwan was seen standing at the door in a palace dress. She did not have the delicate temperament she had pretended to have before, but instead had a sharp and fierce aura.
Words like fierce and sharp are not appropriate to describe women, but Shen Chenli felt that he truly felt this aura in his princess.
And there is no sense of incongruity, but rather it complements each other, giving people the feeling that she is supposed to be like this.
This feeling even made Shen Chenli ignore Yu Tingwan's bright appearance when he saw her for the first time. He felt that even if Yu Tingwan had an ordinary appearance, people would be able to ignore these.
"Let's go. There are snacks prepared in the carriage. Let's eat in the carriage."
Yu Tingwan nodded, watched Shen Chenli being pushed out by Wei Ming, raised her eyebrows slightly, and followed.
She always knew that Shen Chenli had outstanding looks, but Yu Tingwan was stunned by him wearing a red dress on their wedding day.
Shen Chenli has been wearing a crescent-white suit these past two days. Although he still looks good, his pale complexion and deliberately restrained aura give him the feeling of a noble young man who has escaped from the world.
But today, after putting on his own prince's attire, Yu Tingwan finally felt the aura and pressure he brought.
It was a natural aura of a superior, mixed with the murderous spirit that came from years of fighting on the battlefield.
Yu Tingwan had seen such aura in other people before, but Shen Chenli was the first one who could give her such a special feeling.
Yu Tingwan suspected that he was too handsome, and she had evidence. This nobleman who should have been independent from the world had to fight on the battlefield due to unavoidable reasons. Tsk!
The carriage of Prince Chen's Mansion was not parked outside the gate, but directly in front of the main courtyard. The two arrived not long after they left the gate.
Yu Tingwan looked at the carriage and then at Shen Chenli, wondering whether he should step away or ask this gentleman if he needed his help.
As a result, Wei Ming walked forward and pressed a button on the wall of the carriage. Then, Yu Tingwan looked in surprise as he saw that this originally ordinary carriage began to deform.
The entire carriage began to turn in front of Yu Tingwan's eyes. After the carriage door turned to the right angle, a wooden board of moderate thickness extended from under the body of the carriage. Judging from its width, it was just enough for Shen Chenli's wheelchair to fit in.
After Wei Ming pushed Shen Chenli onto the carriage, folded up the wooden boards, and turned it back into an ordinary carriage, Yu Tingwan raised his eyebrows. The person who designed this carriage was really amazing.
Yu Tingwan never dared to underestimate the wisdom of the ancients. You know, in the place where she used to be, there were many outstanding inventors in ancient times. The mechanical techniques of Lu Ban and Mo Jia, etc., are all not to be underestimated.
It seems that she will have to get to know this powerful person again in the future!
"Princess, please get in the car."
After Wei Ming got off the carriage, he looked at Yu Tingwan who was staring at the carriage, wondering what he was thinking.
Yu Ting only discovered after getting in the car that night that the interior of the car was completely different from the one he had sat in before. The original couch had been removed, and now Shen Chenli was sitting facing the door.
Two side stools were added on both sides, and the tea table in the middle was raised to a height that Shen Chenli could use conveniently.
"This carriage is well designed."
Shen Chenli looked at her, thought for a moment and said, "It's not as exquisite as the wheelchair designed by the princess."
"I didn't design the wheelchair. I learned about it by chance from a book. It just happened that the prince could use it. You don't need to thank me."
"..."
Shen Chenli's eyes instantly became a little complicated. This person speaks like this so early in the morning?
"Princess, please have some snacks. It will probably take a long time to get to the palace."
Yu Tingwan was not polite either. He reached out to take the snacks on the table and started eating. While eating, he asked him:
"Your Majesty, please tell me what kind of person the current emperor is, so that I can be prepared."
"Don't worry too much, Princess. The emperor is always kind and thoughtful. Moreover, the emperor is diligent and loves the people. He has always handled government affairs personally and never delegated them to others, so Princess, you can relax."
Oh ~
Looking at Shen Chenli, Yu Tingwan nodded slightly, reached out and took another piece of dessert and put it into his mouth, without saying anything more.
When the carriage arrived at the palace gate, Yu Tingwan saw through the window that there was a young eunuch standing outside.
Seeing their carriage, he trotted forward.
"The servant Xiao Shunzi pays homage to His Majesty and Princess."
When the voice came from inside the carriage asking him to get up, the young eunuch hurriedly stood up and led the carriage towards the imperial city.
"The emperor has finished his court session and asked me to wait here early in the morning, but I can't wait to see you, Your Highness! The emperor also said that Your Highness has a leg disease, so from now on, you don't need to dismount when you come to the palace. The carriage can go directly to the palace."
After saying this, he waited for the prince in the car to respond, then hurriedly trotted ahead to lead the way.
Yu Tingwan looked at Shen Chenli, who was sitting in the car with an expressionless face, and thought of what the little eunuch had just said, and couldn't help but sneer.
"The Emperor is very concerned about you, Your Highness. He knows that you have difficulty walking, so he gave you the honor of riding in a carriage in the palace."
Shen Chenli looked at her, her face full of smiles, but every word she said was full of sarcasm, and he sighed softly.
"What's wrong, princess? Are you in a bad mood today?"
She spoke these words one by one. He had never seen her like this before. He didn't believe that she was standing up for him.
"It's nothing, my lord. I just didn't sleep well."
Who can be happy to be woken up early in the morning, especially to meet someone who might make them even more unhappy!
"Then please hold on for a while, Princess. After meeting the Emperor, Princess will go to the harem. I'm afraid Princess needs to cheer up."
Yu Tingwan nodded perfunctorily to indicate that he understood.
Three women make a drama. This emperor is not easy to fool, and the women in his harem are even more so!
The emperor had already finished his court session and was waiting for them in the imperial study.
The carriage arrived in front of the imperial study. Yu Tingwan got off the carriage first. She looked energetic in the carriage, but the moment the curtain was opened, even her lips turned pale.
When she got off the carriage and turned around to look back, she saw Shen Chenli being carried out of the carriage. His mental state was even worse than hers, and his lips were blue and purple!
Before the two men entered, a white-haired eunuch walked out of the hall. When he saw them, he hurried forward to greet them.
"The prince and princess are here. I pay my respects to the prince and princess."
Although this person immediately put on a respectful and kind smile when he saw them for the first time, Yu Tingwan still felt his uncomfortable aura.
Even the relatively kind smile on his face became much more mean because of his protruding cheekbones.
"Princess, this is Eunuch Cao, ahem."
As soon as he said this, Shen Chenli's face turned pale and he covered his mouth and started coughing.
Yu Tingwan was supported by Qingzhu and stood beside Shen Chenli. She covered her mouth with a handkerchief and nodded gently at Eunuch Cao.
"Eunuch Cao."
"Oh, Princess, you are too polite." Eunuch Cao said as he bowed politely.
"Your Majesty and Princess, please follow me in. The Emperor has been waiting for a while."
After saying this, Eunuch Cao led the two of them to the imperial study, muttering to himself as he walked.
