Chapter 167: Two lords have come together to visit!

Chen Mansion.

In the courtyard.

"After tossing and turning for so long, I'm finally home. Let me have a good sleep first..."

Chen Yan, who hadn't closed his eyes all night, yawned, stretched, and muttered.

Having worked at high intensity all night and morning, he was in urgent need of sleep...

As for the remaining matters, the advisors and strategists under the Grand Chancellor were more than capable of handling them.

Otherwise, there would be no need to raise those people...

"Young Master, you're back?"

Qingyu heard that Chen Yan and Zhu Yi had returned, walked out from the inner courtyard quickly, her watery eyes full of concern.

"Hmm."

Chen Yan nodded. His stomach suddenly growled, and remembering that he hadn't eaten for so long, he asked, "Qingyu, is there anything to eat?"

"I haven't eaten all night, I'm a bit hungry..."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and rubbed his stomach, which was protesting.

Anyway, there was nothing for him, Chen Yan, to do next, so it wouldn't be too late to fill his stomach before sleeping.

But for some reason, mentioning that made him inexplicably think of a joke: regardless of three seven twenty-one, eat and drink first...

"The kitchen simmered crucian carp soup, and there is also Ci Fei Han Xiang..." Qingyu reached out and pulled Chen Yan, walking inside, and said softly.

The little girl knew that once her young master got busy, he would forget to eat...

So, she got up early specifically to simmer crucian carp soup over a low fire and carefully prepared delicious staple foods like Ci Fei Han Xiang.

She just wanted her young master to be able to eat a hot meal as soon as he returned to the mansion...

(Ci Fei Han Xiang: A red zongzi served with honey, which may contain some precious ingredients and spices, and the production process may be unique.)

"This crucian carp soup is so fresh!"

Chen Yan drank the crucian carp soup served by the maid in large gulps, feeling his empty stomach warmed by a burst of heat, let out a long sigh of relief, and sighed.

The feeling of having a home and someone thinking of you is really good!

Zhu Yi, on the other hand, buried his head and devoured the staple foods like Ci Fei Han Xiang.

After all, the aphrodisiac that caused the Censor Ren Yue to be "possessed" and "go crazy" was something he had secretly sneaked into his residence to plant...

Qingyu sat opposite, holding her small face with both hands, staring at Chen Yan without blinking, pursed her thin lips, and said gloomily, "Young Master, you've lost weight. If the Lady saw this, she would definitely be heartbroken..."

She hadn't noticed it before, but after observing her young master carefully after calming down, Qingyu was shocked to find that her young master had lost a circle.

She said the Lady would be heartbroken, but in reality, she was the one who was more heartbroken...

Between the lines, there was still some self-blame.

"Is that so?"

Chen Yan heard this, smacked his lips at the crucian carp soup, reached out to touch his face, and wondered.

There were many things to handle during this period, official business was busy, and he often stayed up late, so dark circles were definitely there...

But he really didn't know if he had lost weight or not.

"Yes!"

Qingyu nodded heavily and said decisively.

A moment later, she shook her small head and continued, "No, I must nourish the young master well; he can't lose any more weight!"

As soon as the words fell.

Qingyu seemed to have made up her mind, stood up suddenly.

She turned and walked toward the kitchen without looking back to check the ingredients.

Then she would go and ask Yun Xi, this professional, for her opinion, to properly regulate her young master's body.

In terms of official business, she couldn't help at all; she could only make her young master healthy, so he could go and fight for his career without worries!

"This fiery little girl!"

Chen Yan looked at Qingyu's fiery back, shook his head helplessly, and drank the last drop of crucian carp soup in the bowl, "Going to sleep!"

Having said that, he also stood up and walked toward his room.

Whether he needed to nourish his body or not, Chen Yan didn't know...

But he was sure that he needed a full-body meridian therapy, followed by an essential oil spa, to soothe his whole body's fatigue.

Unfortunately, he could only think about it; after all, the Great Zhou didn't have this industry yet...

"Clang clang clang!"

"Clang clang clang!"

From near noon to sunset, Chen Yan slept peacefully, but suddenly the sound of knocking on the door woke him from his dream. He asked with sleepy eyes, "Who is it?"

"Me."

Then, a cold female voice responded from outside the door.

Little Chili?... Chen Yan listened to this voice he was more than familiar with, rubbed his forehead and eyelids, and said nonchalantly, "Come in!"

Dantai Mingyue pushed the door and entered. Just as she approached the bed, she was caught off guard and pressed onto the quilt by a dark shadow, "Ugh... what are you doing?"

The startled woman subconsciously pushed the guy who was making trouble.

"Mingyue, disturbing someone's sleep is not a good thing..."

Chen Yan changed to wrapping his arms around Dantai Mingyue, leaned his head on the spring light, and said playfully, "As punishment, you have to sleep with me!"

"Fulfill the duty of a bed-warming maid!"

Now that it was no longer a joke, Chen Yan, after eating and drinking his fill and waking up, really wanted to rush...

"No!"

Dantai Mingyue's face was flushed red, like a red apple. She pushed Chen Yan lightly and said in a low voice, "I'm on my period..."

"It's not very convenient today!"

What "that" was, was self-evident.

"No matter!"

"We have more ways than difficulties..."

"And it's not like we have to stick to one path!"

Chen Yan heard this, didn't care, leaned close to Dantai Mingyue's ear, blew a hot breath lightly, and said playfully.

As the saying goes, all roads lead to Rome...

If one path doesn't work, then change to another!

"Annoying..."

Dantai Mingyue's face was red and her ears were red, shy, and she coquettishly scolded.

"Then let's discuss something even more annoying, how about that?" Chen Yan smiled, lifted the woman's chin with his fingertips, and asked with great interest.

"What?" Dantai Mingyue was slightly startled.

"The prosperity of a family still depends on the prosperity of descendants, so that there will be successors, don't you think?" Chen Yan's mouth curled slightly, and he smiled.

This was both teasing the woman and Chen's practical consideration for the future...

He couldn't give the foundation he built to others, could he?

"Hmm~~~"

Dantai Mingyue shyly responded, pulled the quilt over herself tightly, looking like she was stealing a bell while covering her ears.

She was almost burying herself like an ostrich... Chen Yan saw this, sighed in his heart, as if he remembered something, and asked, "By the way, what were you originally looking for me for?"

"Almost forgot the important matter..."

Dantai Mingyue heard this, suddenly lifted the quilt, sat up, and said seriously, "Two lords have come together to visit!"

"Two lords?"

"Who?"

Chen Yan raised his eyebrows, pondered slightly, and guessed, "It wouldn't be... Qin Zhao and Lu Miao, right?"

At this juncture, those two had a very high probability.

And it was very likely that they came to ask him for help to...

"Hmm, it is exactly those two who were impeached and dismissed under the Grand Chancellor!" Dantai Mingyue nodded and said.

"Then I must see them..."

Chen Yan rubbed his chin, thoughtful, and muttered.

He paused and continued, "Mingyue, help me change my clothes!"

As he spoke, he didn't stop, turned over and got out of bed neatly, and spread his arms.

Obviously, Chen Yan knew their intentions well, and he also had his own little plans...

Chen Mansion.

Reception Hall.

"Brother Qin, this mansion bestowed by the Grand Chancellor to Mirror Master Chen is truly magnificent!"

"It shows how much he is valued!"

Lu Miao picked up the tea bowl, sipped the fragrant tea, looked around, and smiled.

Just in terms of land area, it was already on par with his Lu Miao's mansion...

And in some aspects, such as various rare ornaments, it was even better!

"If you could, at the age of seventeen, within a single day, strike down Shangguan Jun, Liang Qi, and Ren Yue one after another with thunderous means, and then take advantage of the situation to counterattack Zhao Qian and reverse the situation..."

Qin Zhao was expressionless and said lightly, "Whoever it is, they will be valued!"

Between his words, there was no dissatisfaction or jealousy, but full appreciation.

That was a thousand-mile steed that any superior would spare no effort to cultivate!

"If I could do it, I wouldn't be here..." Lu Miao shook his head and sighed, "Heroes emerge from youth!"

"Such a brilliant person, if you and I make good friends with him, we will benefit a lot!" Qin Zhao's eyes were like torches, and he said in a deep voice.

Having such a person as a friend was a hundred benefits and no harm to himself and his family.

Lu Miao nodded in agreement.

A moment later, the voice of the person they were waiting for came from outside the reception hall: "Chen is late; the two lords have waited a long time, please forgive me!" ===== CHAPTER 168 =====
