reborn princess

Chapter 413
"My son..." Miao Kexin looked down at him pitifully. She is the daughter of Xuan Chen's nanny and also Xuan Chen's sister, so she knows Xuan Chen's temperament very well, and knows that this young master is not good. It's easy to mess with.

"Sister Kexin, brother Yu Hai has almost practiced martial arts now, I think it would be good to let him go out with me to practice, don't you think so?" Xuan Chen threatened a maid without feeling ashamed at all. "Why don't you take him away when I return to Liaocheng this time, my father will definitely agree."

"My son—" Miao Kexin's face turned red instantly. The Yu Hai that Xuan Chen was talking about was her fiancé, who was training in the Xuan family's secret base and learning martial arts. Originally, the parents of both parties had agreed that they would be married in the spring of next year. Get them both married.

Shen Weilan glanced at Xuan Chen lightly, feeling that she was a bit ashamed to find such a despicable and shameless fiancé like him.

Xuan Chen seemed to be able to change his face, and immediately said with a smile: "Oh, I almost forgot, you and Yu Hai are getting married soon, right? How can this be good? If I take Yu Hai away, don't you No bridegroom?"

Miao Kexin blushed, and said in a very serious tone: "My lord, don't worry, I will definitely not inform the princess, I know what I can say and what I can't say!"

"Since Sister Kexin said so, then I can rest assured! When you get married, I will definitely give you a big red envelope!" Xuan Chen nodded at her with a smile on his face, with the air of a nobleman, Then he stretched out his hand and pulled Shen Weilan, who was already dressed, up from the dressing table. "Daughter-in-law, let's go, I'll take you to the practice room!"

"Wait a minute, I'll take the knife!" Shen Weilan turned and entered the bedroom, took out her own double knife from beside the pillow, and then followed him to the practice room.

The practice room dedicated to Xuan Yu and his son is just behind the main courtyard, and there is a corner door in the cross courtyard, which can be passed through.

The courtyard where the practice room is located is very spacious. There is a shooting range from east to west, and three rattan target plates are erected on the east side.

Going further inside is a practice room.

The practice room was brightly lit at this time, and it was obvious that someone was already practicing.

Seeing the candlelight shining from inside, Shen Weilan turned her face and glanced at Xuan Chen with some surprise.

Xuan Chen gritted his teeth, "It's my father! He wakes up early every day to practice!"

The two walked in, and saw that under the candlelight, a ball of sword light enveloped a person like a ball of light.

After a while, the sword light disappeared, and Xuan Yu greeted him with a smile, "Daughter-in-law, why don't you sleep more when you come to Uncle Xuan's house?"

"I've met Uncle Xuan!" Shen Weilan saluted him with the corners of her mouth twitching, she was used to his open mouth.

Xuan Yu took the towel handed over by the guard Luan Zuo, wiped the sweat off his head, and said with a smile, "Don't be too polite, go to practice! Brother Chen, go to the palace after breakfast to meet the Queen Mother, you are in Liao These days in the city, the Empress Dowager has been talking about you a lot."

"Yes!" Xuan Chen agreed politely. The Queen Mother is one of the important targets of his and Shen Weilan's trip, and he must please her.

"Then I'll go first. I have an early morning today, so I have to enter the palace early." Xuan Yu said, throwing the towel in his hand to Luan Zuo, then picked up his mink coat from the hanger at the door, put it on behind his back, Step out.

Luan Zuo put the towel on the basin rack at the door of the practice room, put on his mink fur coat, and followed Xuan Yu out.

Seeing that Xuan Yu had left, Shen Weilan asked, "I was busy yesterday, so I didn't have time to ask you, where is Brother Xihua?"

She brought Du Xihua out, so she had to bring him back safely, otherwise, she would be sorry to Aunt Du.

Xuan Chen said: "I will let him and Luan Ying go home for the time being, and they will come over in a while."

Shen Weilan nodded, expressing that she knew, yesterday was a bit messy, she was pestered by Xuan Yirou and those sisters from Baili's family, and she forgot about Du Xihua.

She took off the mink fur coat on her body, put the two knives behind her back, and stretched her muscles and bones first. Because when returning to the capital, in order to lighten the load on the horses when they were on the road, they didn't wear those vests filled with gold bars. When the body is very relaxed.

She did several somersaults one after another, punched once, and warmed up. The double knives on her back suddenly came out of their sheaths. But it unfolds with a vigorous figure.

She is very skilled in swordsmanship, every move and style has everyone's demeanor, it can be seen that she has worked hard.

It's just because I'm still young and I haven't practiced for a long time, so I'm still not good enough in terms of heat. The so-called heat means the ability to adapt to the enemy.

Because when confronting the enemy, it is impossible for the enemy to move according to his own expectations. Often the enemy's attacks are unexpected. If the ability to adapt to the situation is not good, it will suffer a big loss.

Before Song Hengzhi had an accident, she had fought with someone. At that time, she realized that although her sword skills were well practiced, she still lacked some sense of adaptability when confronting the enemy, so she often asked Xuan Chen to feed her with her. trick.

After practicing a set of saber techniques, she heard the door of the training room creak open, and Luan Ying led Du Xihua in from the outside.

It stands to reason that a man like Luan Ying is not allowed to enter and leave the inner house at will, but the rules of the Prince's Mansion in Changping County are somewhat different from those of other families, because Luan Ying is Xuan Chen's personal bodyguard, and the two grew up together when they were young. Changping County Prince's Mansion is a relatively special existence, just like his father Luan Zuo, he is qualified to enter and leave the inner house at will.

And Du Xihua was able to enter the inner house because of Luan Ying's relationship.

Shen Weilan suddenly folded her body and rushed towards Du Xihua, the blade was cold and mercilessly slashed down on Du Xihua's face.

Du Xihua quickly raised the sword in his hand, and used the scabbard to push aside her two knives one after another. Turning around, he took advantage of the situation and pulled out the sword, and started a fight with her.

The two fought more than 100 moves, and each stopped in a tacit understanding.

Shen Weilan was slightly out of breath, "Brother Xihua, your martial arts have improved again!"

Du Xihua giggled for a while, scratched his sweaty scalp with his hands, and said with a smile: "Miss, your sword skills are also very good! There were several times just now, and I almost couldn't hide!"

With that said, Du Xihua turned his face to look at Luan Ying, "Do you have a clean towel, wipe my eldest lady's sweat."

Luan Ying said "yes", and ran to the side wall of the exercise room. There was a chest of drawers beside the wall. He opened the top drawer, took out a brand new sheep's belly towel from it, and trotted sent over.

Du Xihua took the towel and handed it to Shen Weilan.

Shen Weilan took the towel, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and then asked, "Brother Xihua, did you sleep well last night?"

"It's good. I live with Luan Ying. Luan Ying's mother cooks delicious food." Du Xihua laughed. "And Luan Ying's family has many younger brothers and sisters, more lively than my family."

Luan Ying also said from the side: "Miss Lan'er, don't worry, Xihua lives with me, he won't be hungry."

Du Xihua whispered: "Miss, this palace is so big, I was almost fainted when I came here yesterday!"

Shen Weilan smiled and said, "Just get used to it!"

The two were talking, when Grandma Chun hurried in from the outside, "My lord, someone is coming from the palace, hurry up and receive the order!"

Xuan Chen was practicing sword at first, and there was light around his body, when he heard Granny Chun's words, the sword light suddenly disappeared, he stared at Granny Chun who was walking towards him, and asked solemnly: "Who is here?"

Granny Chun said softly with a serious expression on her face. "It's Eunuch An who is next to the Queen Mother!"

Xuan Chen froze for a moment, then frowned tightly, "Eunuch An? How could it be him?"

According to his speculation, even if someone wants to make things difficult for Lan'er today, it should be from Concubine Wen Gui. How could it be the Queen Mother?
"Eunuch An said that he wants Miss Lan'er to go to receive the order together." Granny Chun looked at Shen Weilan and said, "I'm afraid the queen mother heard that the son brought his fiancée back, and was anxious to help the son check it out!"

"Impossible!" Xuan Chen shook his head thoughtfully. "The empress dowager knows that when I come back from Liaocheng, I will definitely go to the palace to see her immediately, so there is no need to announce me to the palace at all. There must be something wrong with sending someone to deliver the decree so soon!"

Grandma Chun also sensed that there was a problem inside, but she still urged: "Anyway, let's go and receive the order first!"

Xuan Chen nodded helplessly, "That's the only way!"

The two got dressed and brought Luan Ying and Du Xihua to the front hall.

Sitting on a chair on one side of the front hall was a man dressed as a eunuch. This man was about 50 years old. He was wearing a moon-white eunuch costume embroidered with sea-blue wave patterns, and an official hat of the same color on his head.

Several managers of the palace stood aside and carefully talked with him, the two sides chatted and laughed happily, and there was a peaceful atmosphere.

Seeing Xuan Chen and Shen Weilan walking in, the man immediately stood up, and then said to Xuan Chen with a smile all over his face: "Your servant has seen the prince! I haven't seen you for many years, the prince is mighty!"

"How is Eunuch An?" Xuan Chen cupped his fists at Eunuch An, then turned his face to Shen Weilan and asked. "Lan'er, I have met Mrs. An. Mrs. An is a big celebrity next to the empress dowager."

Shen Weilan saluted Eunuch An gracefully, and said softly, "Shen Weilan has met Eunuch An!"

Eunuch An sized her up nonchalantly, "Your surname is Shen? Didn't you say your surname was Ye?"

Shen Weilan said neither humble nor overbearing: "My mother remarried, and the little girl took the surname of her stepfather."

Eunuch An suddenly raised his eyebrows, "Is your stepfather Shen Luo?"

"Grandpa Mingjian!" Shen Weilan smiled.

Eunuch An chuckled, and said, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager ordered this young lady Shen to enter the palace."

"I would like to obey the Queen Mother's order!" Xuan Chen replied in a deep voice. "Please, Eunuch An, let us change our clothes later."

"No need, this is very good. The queen mother said that only Miss Shen Shen will be alone, and I will not see the prince today." Eunuch An bluntly rejected Xuan Chen's request, specifying that the queen mother only intends to see Shen Weilan.
