Chapter 180 The Emperor
After waiting for a while, the sound of silk and bamboo in the hall paused.

Zhu Xiuyuan quickly straightened his clothes. It seemed that the emperor was going to summon him.

Although Zhu Xiuyuan was a little dissatisfied, but... people had to bow their heads under the eaves!
What's more, this "eaves" is a royal eaves, made of iron, so it can't be beaten!
Sure enough, as the sound of silk and bamboo paused, the young eunuch walked out of the hall and asked Zhu Xiuyuan to come in.

Zhu Xiuyuan immediately strode forward, came to the middle of the gate, turned around, faced the inside of the gate, crossed the high threshold, and walked quickly inside.

The little eunuch was pretty good and explained to Zhu Xiuyuan the etiquette of paying homage to the emperor in advance.

He also told Zhu Xiuyuan that besides Emperor Chen, there was Concubine You on the throne in the hall, and both of them had to salute.

Zhu Xiuyuan lowered his head, walked quickly to the middle of the hall, bowed to the ground and bowed: "I, Jiangzhou Sima Zhu Xiuyuan, pay my respects to your majesty, and pay my respects to the noble concubine!"

Influenced by the braid drama of later generations, Zhu Xiuyuan almost shouted the slogan "Long live my emperor".

But he stopped him alive.

For now, this is not included in the etiquette of paying homage to the emperor.

Chen Guo's grand ceremony for monarchs and ministers is relatively simple, just bow to the ground.

Moreover, this kind of courtesy from monarchs and ministers is relatively rare, and it does not need to be done every time you see the emperor.

Generally, it is only needed when visiting the emperor for the first time, when going to court, and when holding important ceremonies.

When you see the emperor, you only need to bow and salute.

Since it was Zhu Xiuyuan's first time to pay homage to Emperor Chen, he bowed to the ground and paid homage to the emperor.

"Free gift!"

Chen Huang, who was sitting high on the dragon throne, opened his mouth.

The voice was neither loud nor thick.

It seems to be full of energy at the first listen, but after a careful aftertaste, it feels a little vain...

Zhu Xiuyuan got up from the ground and cupped his hands again: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After the ceremony, Zhu Xiuyuan looked up.

I saw two people sitting on the dragon throne!
Among them is a man wearing a yellow robe, who should be the emperor of Chen State, who is in his 40s.

At first glance, Zhu Xiuyuan couldn't help sighing in his heart: "This emperor really looks like an overindulgent man."

The other person on the dragon chair throne is not simple, she is a well-dressed lady.

Looking at her noble attire, it is not difficult to guess that this is the noble concubine You Lihua!

After a quick glance, Zhu Xiuyuan only felt that Concubine You Gui was a goblin.

I believe that anyone who sees her will be shocked... That's why Zhu Xiuyuan didn't dare to look at her more.

And... Emperor Chen and Concubine You are not paying attention. You are meeting foreign ministers, why are you... still hugging each other like that? Don't you pay attention to your image?

For the pure Zhu Xiuyuan, this scene was really eye-catching.

So he just took a quick glance and immediately looked away.

However, Chen Huang's next words almost made Zhu Xiuyuan spit out a mouthful of blood.

I only heard Chen Huang say: "Oh, are you that Jiangzhou Sima Zhu Xiuyuan? Raise your head and let me have a look."

This……

Nima!

Zhu Xiuyuan was going crazy.

"Lift your head and let me take a look." Isn't this what you should say to a woman?
Could it be that this Emperor Chen is... Eh!

Zhu Xiuyuan shivered all over.

But another thought occurred to him: "Probably not, because the emperor is holding Concubine You, which means his orientation is very normal."

Despite the conflict in his heart, Zhu Xiuyuan still raised his head according to his words, and looked at Chen Huang... and Concubine You on the throne of the Dragon Throne.There is no way, this Concubine You is simply too eye-catching.

Especially when the old emperor next to him was not so handsome.

He is actually a foil.

The flowers and green leaves are paired together. As long as there is no problem with one's eyes, one will naturally look at the flowers!
Who can see the green leaves?
When Zhu Xiuyuan looked at Emperor Chen, Emperor Chen and Concubine You also looked at Zhu Xiuyuan carefully.

"Ha ha!"

Emperor Chen suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, and smoothly let go of Concubine You.

Maybe he also felt that it was inappropriate to cuddle in front of a "child".

Because Zhu Xiuyuan is only eighteen years old now, he also looks young, looks too young.

Although he tried his best to look like an adult, but in the eyes of discerning people, Zhu Xiuyuan was just a hairless, brat.

After Chen Huang laughed for a while, he patted his knees and praised: "Not bad! Not bad! I wish you, Aiqing, to have such achievements in your weak years. It is really a blessing to my country, Chen!"

Concubine You also covered her mouth and smiled: "I heard about Zhu Sima's deeds earlier, and thought that Zhu Sima was at least twenty years old, but I didn't expect... Zhu Sima was so young, and he was really a handsome and handsome boy. Woolen cloth!"

Zhu Xiuyuan was at a loss for a moment and hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, you are so complimentary. Your Majesty is so praised!"

Chen Huang's praise was nothing.

But with Concubine You's words... can this kind of joke be made?

I recall that when Zhu Xiuyuan just traveled through time, he was just a little beggar and had nothing to do with being graceful.

Ever since he moved into Dong's house, he has been well-dressed and well-fed every day, and a dedicated maid has helped him take care of his appearance.

Plus there is a mature, well-informed soul living within him.

Over time, Zhu Xiuyuan has become a handsome young man with an outstanding temperament!

Although this is true, these words coming from Concubine You's mouth... are there something wrong?

In fact, Zhu Xiuyuan was overly worried.

Because he will find out in the future that both Chen Huang and You Lihua are serious "members of the Appearance Association"!
To put it bluntly, they judge people by their appearance.

"I wish you dear, I heard that the fried tea was also created by you? The sobering tea is very effective, I really like it!" Chen Huang asked with a smile.

"Your Majesty, it is true!"

"Oh, then tell me, how did you come up with the idea of ​​using an iron pot to fry tea leaves?" Chen Huang put on an expression as if he was listening to the story, with a smile on his face.

You Lihua also stared at Zhu Xiuyuan curiously.

Therefore, Zhu Xiuyuan repeated the same rhetoric he used to deal with Dong Shuyu.

Zhu Xiuyuan has been a human being for two lifetimes, and he is not afraid of any situation, so he is neither humble nor overbearing when facing Chen Huang.

The language of the narration is also clear and logical, and the logic of the narration is more able to withstand scrutiny...

Emperor Chen and Concubine You nodded frequently.

Xin said: "That's right, it really is a talent who can achieve such achievements in a weak year. Just listening to his conversation is already extraordinary..."

"It's amazing!"

After listening to Zhu Xiuyuan's narration, Chen Huang was all smiles and stroked his beard.

He also said: "I wish you, Aiqing, just making tea is a feat that will last forever, and the method of preventing and controlling the plague will be used by countless people..."

"Zhu Aiqing, tell me and my concubine again about the flood and plague in Jiangzhou, and how did you come up with the method to prevent and control the plague?"
