Carefree Prince In Tang Dynasty

Chapter 125 Chen Xinheng

In fact, Li Xin didn't think that things might not be as bad as Chen Youlan imagined.

The reason is very simple. It was not a secret that Chen Youlan visited Chu Palace yesterday as Chen Zijin. At least Li Xin didn't see the slightest hint from Chen Youlan and Xiaoling's actions that they wanted to act secretly. In other words, the people in the Chen residence should know the whereabouts of their young lady.

That being the case, why didn't they come to King Chu's mansion to ask after they found out that their young lady hadn't returned to the mansion? This is a bit intriguing. Maybe, that father-in-law, Mr. Chen Yin, whom Li Xin hadn't met formally, is waiting at the mansion for Li Xin to visit and explain what happened last night.

As long as you can still talk, there is still room for things to turn around.

Under the service of Runniang and Xiaoling who woke up, Li Xin quickly washed up, tidied up his appearance, and changed into a low-key and luxurious brocade robe, and wore a ring-shaped jade pendant of excellent quality around his waist.

Sure enough, people rely on clothes. Once this lavender dress is worn, the hangover young man who was originally a bit sloppy and embarrassed has transformed into a young and promising Tang Dynasty prince. Even Chen Youlan couldn't help but nodded when he saw it. Express satisfaction.

"Is this okay? Will it appear disrespectful? Or...shall I change into a python robe?" Li Xin couldn't help but asked nervously.

The so-called boa does not refer to a boa constrictor, but a four-clawed dragon. Only noble princes and princes can wear clothes with this pattern. It is also Li Xin's formal attire as the king of Chu, and Li Xin rarely wears it at ordinary times, and only wears it on some more formal occasions.

Chen Youlan was angry and funny, and said: "No need! What python robe are you wearing? Seeing my father is not seeing the emperor. Besides, you are not the one who wants to go with me, and you are so nervous now."

Indeed, it is not a particularly formal occasion to visit the Chen Mansion, so wearing a boa robe is a bit too much.

Li Xin smiled.

As a human being in two lifetimes, it is the first time to experience the drama of meeting the father-in-law, so it is hard not to be nervous, right?

After being in a hurry, a group of people got into the carriage of Chu Palace. By the way, Li Xin never thought of the existence of Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu from the beginning to the end. The so-called brotherhood is so false, anyway, they have drunk, let them go to sleep, when they wake up, they will naturally go out.

After crossing several streets, the carriage quickly stopped at the gate of the Chen Mansion.

Before getting out of the car, Li Xin suddenly felt that this situation was a bit like the scene of the newlyweds in the legend, that is, the custom of the newlyweds returning to their father-in-law's house to visit relatives on the second or third day after getting married. It's called "back door".

Li Xin just wanted to laugh and tell his discovery, but suddenly realized that Chen Youlan beside him was already blushing very hard, it seemed that he probably wanted to go with him. So, Li Xin didn't say much, and forcibly suppressed this discovery, so as not to irritate Chen Youlan too much.

After getting out of the car, Wang Gui negotiated with the concierge of Chen's residence and claimed the name of King Chu. After a while, the Chen Mansion opened the door and invited Li Xin and his party into the mansion. The style of the Chen Mansion is different from that of the Wang Mansion, it is more simple and elegant, showing a literary atmosphere, which is in line with Chen Yin's identity as a Confucian.

The servants led the way, and Li Xin and Chen Youlan followed behind to the front hall of the Chen Mansion. Today's rightful lord, Chen Yin, hasn't arrived yet, which is normal. With his status as Prime Minister and Li Xin's future father-in-law, it is natural that he does not need to wait here first. Instead, it is reasonable for Li Xin to wait for him.

"You wait here for a while, I'll change into clothes before I come back." At this moment, Chen Youlan was still wearing yesterday's men's clothes, obviously it was not suitable to meet Chen Yin in such a dress, it was better to change back to women's clothes as soon as possible.

Li Xinxin felt a little weak for no reason, but he couldn't say it out, so he nodded and said, "Go and come back."

Chen Youlan nodded and went with Xiaoling.

For a while, only Li Xin and Wang Gui were left in the front hall. Li Xin sat kneeling in front of the table, put his hands on his knees, and kept his waist straight. This was probably the first time he, who hated kneeling, sat down so rigidly. And Wang Gui stood quietly behind Li Xin, like a pillar, without any intention of getting involved in anything.

The servant brought up a dish of tea soup, and then withdrew. Li Xin took a look. It was the kind of tea with a lot of seasonings added. Although there was no suet oil added, it still looked like a tea that people couldn't help but keep a respectful distance from. He didn't drink it, just stared at the mist rising from the tea soup in a daze.

Li Xin sat and waited for a while, suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside, and when he looked up, a young man walked in who looked older than Li Xin, with a moderate build and a slender figure, with facial features similar to Chen Youlan's, except that his nose was bigger Taller and thinner lips.

"I heard that there are guests coming, so I came to take a look. Is this the King of Chu? My future brother-in-law?" Before Li Xin could speak, the young man who came came said with a smile. While talking, he sat down in front of Li Xin generously, looked at Li Xin with those eyes that were somewhat similar to Chen Youlan, and waited for Li Xin's answer.

Although he was talking to himself, Li Xin didn't feel any hostility from this young man. Moreover, the other party has already slightly revealed his identity in the conversation - he called Li Xin "the future sister-in-law", that is to say, he is one of Chen Youlan's two elder brothers.

Li Xin nodded and said, "It's the king. Dare I ask your brother's name?"

The young man said with a smile: "This is Chen Xinheng, Youlan's second elder brother."

Li Xin hesitated for a moment whether he should call the other party "Second Brother" or "Brother Chen". After all, the other party had already called him "future sister-in-law", obviously he should have good intentions towards him. However, it would be too affectionate to call him "Second Brother" when we met for the first time, so Li Xin chose the name "Brother Chen" in the end.

"So it's Brother Chen, sorry." Li Xin bowed his hands.

Chen Xinheng waved his hand and said, "I'm white, so there's nothing to be respectful about. Instead, don't think I'm being rude." Indeed, since the young man in front of him came in, he didn't seem to take Li Xin's status as King of Chu seriously. This kind of indifference to identity did not arouse disgust, but made people feel easy-going and friendly. This is also a skill.

Li Xin also smiled and said: "Then I am the same. A title from my father's generation is nothing but a title to be proud of. Naturally, it doesn't matter if you are rude or not."

Chen Xinheng clapped his hands and laughed loudly when he heard the words, "What a noble title from your father's generation is not something to be proud of. You are a good guy, no wonder you can please my little sister."
