C373 Someone from the Imperial Residence

"Little. . . "

Chen Che gently woke Su Xiaoxiao up in his arms. His right hand passed through the girl's soft black hair and caressed it over and over again. He then wiped away the sleepiness on her face and gently said, "Xiaoxiao, wake up. You should go on your way. "

"Go on?" Su Xiaoxiao yawned and looked like she had not woken up. She said, "Where to?"

"To Yaen Kingdom. " Chen Che said gently, "I have discussed with Morh and asked him to take you with him now. Time is of the essence. I have to send you out of the city before Soong Wuji and the others find out that you are missing. "

Soong Wuji!

That's right, Su Xiaoxiao remembered now. Her identity was just a sinner. As expected, was it really not something that she could have?

"Yaen Kingdom?" Su Xiaoxiao was shocked and opened her small mouth again. Her expression suddenly became gloomy. "Aren't you going with me?"

This resentful look immediately made Chen Che's heart race. He suddenly lowered his head uncontrollably. Immediately after, he kissed the bright red lips in front of him. Su Xiaoxiao immediately felt as if she was struck by lightning. Her eyes were wide open, but she was soon intoxicated by this feeling. From the initial resistance to the final absorption, Su Xiaoxiao finally opened her heart at this moment.

After a long time, the lips parted and the moonlight shone through the window onto the ground. The girl's face was slightly red. Chen Che held Su Xiaoxiao in his arms. The corner of his mouth that curled up gave people a sense of security.

"Don't worry. After I settle the matters at home, I will immediately go to Yaen Kingdom to reunite with you guys. Xiaoxiao, you must wait for me. I will make you the happiest woman in the world!"

Chen Che raised his right hand and swore to the moonlight. His serious look made Su Xiaoxiao forget all her hesitation and uneasiness. "Pffft ~" The girl suddenly laughed and hung her body on Chen Che's neck like a spoiled child. The corners of her eyes were sparkling.

After half an incense stick of time, Guxing and Su Xiaoxiao mounted their horses at the same time. Considering how inconvenient it was for a girl to walk in the martial world, Chen Che carefully prepared a man's outfit. He saw that Su Xiaoxiao had changed into the appearance of a man. She looked less beautiful and more handsome.

Chen Che steeled his heart and turned around. He shifted his gaze away from Su Xiaoxiao and said in a deep voice, "Morh, it's almost time. Let's go on our way. "

Guxing nodded and gave Chen Che an ambiguous smile. "In that case, I will take my sister-in-law first. Mr Chen, take care!"

This word "sister-in-law" instantly made Chen Che overjoyed. There was a smile on his face, but Su Xiaoxiao's face turned red. She softly spat. "Bah, who is your sister-in-law's wife? You are not allowed to call her that. "

"Hey, now is not the time. Will you be able to run away in the future?"

Guxing laughed heartily after he finished speaking. His laughter was more or less diluting the sadness of parting. Guxing cupped his hands at Chen Che and said, "Mr Chen, then we will meet again in Yaen Kingdom. Jia ~"

After saying that, Guxing lifted the reins and was about to set off when he suddenly heard Chen Che and Su Xiaoxiao speak at the same time.

"Xiaoxiao. "

"Mr Chen. "

The two of them looked at each other and smiled. Chen Che clenched his fists and his tone suddenly became low. "Wait for me. "

Su Xiaoxiao answered shyly, "Yes. "

. . .

A few hours later, the usually quiet Chen Mansion welcomed a group of uninvited guests today.

"Quickly, let your young master come out. Tell him that our prince has something to discuss with him. If he doesn't come out soon, we will go in and search him!"

As he spoke, a few guards wearing official uniforms and carrying blades were about to barge into the door despite the obstruction of the Chen Mansion's servants. When the servants saw this, they immediately became unhappy. Although they were only servants, since they were chosen to work in the Chen family, they naturally had some cultivation base. Just as the two sides were about to start a fight, a dignified voice suddenly sounded from behind them.

"Stop!"

Everyone subconsciously looked towards the source of the voice. They saw an old woman holding a golden staff slowly walking over under the escort of a group of maids. It seemed that the old woman's identity was extremely noble. When the servants saw her, they were so scared that they didn't even dare to raise their heads and retreated to the side. The guards also hurriedly put away the arrogance on their faces, and their expressions became incomparably respectful.

Matriarch Chen, an influential figure in the business world of Great Song. Ever since the death of Old Master Chen, she had single-handedly supported the huge Chen family. In just a mere ten years, she had spread the branches of the Chen family to every corner of the country. Her methods were truly admirable. It was the most typical example of a female in the history of Great Song, who was as tough as a man. Furthermore, she had the Immunity Gold Medallion given to her by the previous emperor. Normally, even the current emperor had to be courteous to her.

"Greeting Matriarch Chen!"

The guards and the rest did not dare to act rashly in front of the Matriarch. For a moment, it could be said that they were extremely respectful. The Matriarch nodded and swept her gaze across the guards' faces. Her tone was slightly displeased as she said, "I was wondering who it was. He came here early in the morning to make a fuss. So it's the few lords of the royal family. I believe that our Chen family has always minded our own business with your prince. May I know why you have come here so rashly?"

Upon hearing this, the leading guard immediately walked forward and explained in a flattering manner, "Please calm your anger, Matriarch. We did not mean to offend you, but our prince has important matters to discuss with your grandson. That's why he ordered us to invite Young Master Chen over to the residence. We are also following orders. Do you think. . . We should let Young Master. . . Follow us? "

Matriarch Chen smiled," So Your Highness has an urgent matter to discuss with my good-for-nothing grandson. Since Your Highness has given the order, I naturally won't stop you. Milords, please wait a moment. I will send someone to summon Che'er now. "

As she spoke, she summoned a maidservant beside her and whispered a few words in her ear. The maidservant received the order and immediately ran to the backyard.

Seeing this scene, the guards and the others were immediately delighted. It seemed that they did not expect things to go so smoothly. However, Matriarch Chen's next sentence made them feel awkward. Matriarch Chen said lightly, "Since I have already cooperated so well, then is it convenient for you to disclose it? What exactly is the so-called urgent matter? Your Highness is in such a hurry to summon Che'er over. The objective is probably not as simple as a discussion, right? "

" Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from Matriarch Chen. " The leading guard sighed and said seriously, "Since Matriarch Chen sincerely asked, then I naturally will not hide it anymore. I wonder if Matriarch Chen still have any impression of Su Xiaoxiao?"
