The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 1170
[Chapter 1170 Dinner]
So now Lin Tian and Chen Huifang were ready to go to the palace to see how the people of Yan celebrated the New Year.
At this moment, the sky had darkened, but the streets did not look dark at all. Lanterns were hung in front of the houses of the people on both sides of the street, and the red lanterns illuminated the entire street.
Although Lin Tian and Chen Huifang knew that it was almost time for the palace to have a banquet, they were not in a hurry and did not take a carriage to the palace.
Because the streets were full of people celebrating at the moment, it would be extremely difficult for the carriage to pass here, so they planned to walk to the palace.
As they walked, they looked at the prosperous scene on the street, and their mood became extremely excited.
The palace was originally very large, so when they walked to the gate of the palace, the eunuchs sent by the emperor to find them were already waiting at the door. When they saw them, they hurriedly pulled Lin Tian to the palace.
At the same time, he did not forget to urge Lin Tian: “My Prime Minister Lin, the banquet has already started. Now the emperor and other court officials are waiting for you. Why don’t you take a carriage and come here slowly?”
After hearing the eunuch’s words, Lin Tian wanted to answer him, but he did not give Lin Tian a chance to speak, and directly pulled Lin Tian to the palace hall.
The eunuch sent Lin Tian and Chen Huifang to the door of the palace hall, and then shouted in his shrill voice: “The Prime Minister is here.”
Then the eunuch bent down and stretched out his hand, signaling Lin Tian and Chen Huifang to enter.
Lin Tian turned his head to look at Chen Huifang, and found that Chen Huifang became extremely nervous at this moment, and her whole body was stiff. Mingtian saw Chen Huifang’s appearance at this moment, so he reached out and held Chen Huifang’s little hand. Chen
Huifang felt Lin Tian’s action, so she turned her head to look at Lin Tian, and their eyes met. Chen Huifang saw from Lin Tian’s eyes that he told her not to worry.
Then Lin Tian took Chen Huifang and walked into the palace hall. When the officials in the Yan court heard the eunuch’s call, they all stood up and turned their eyes to the direction of the palace hall entrance.
“Hello, Prime Minister.”
When Lin Tian passed by them, they all spoke to Lin Tian, which made Chen Huifang even more nervous. Lin Tian was fine. He had seen this kind of scene before, so it seemed normal to him. “Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you.
Long live the emperor. I pay my respects to the Empress. Long live the Empress.”
Lin Tian took Chen Huifang to the center of the hall, facing the emperor, then bowed and clasped his fists, and spoke to the emperor. Seeing Lin Tian do this, Chen Huifang followed Lin Tian’s example and did not kneel down to the emperor.
All these situations were seen by the officials of the court. They also saw that Lin Tian did not kneel down to the emperor when he saw him. But when they saw that Chen Huifang did not kneel down to the emperor, they wanted to start talking about Chen Huifang.
“Lord Lin, Madam Lin, please stand up.”
After seeing this, the emperor did not say anything, but asked Lin Tian and Chen Huifang to stand up.
The officials in the court who were sad saw that the emperor did not say anything, and they all stopped talking. Lin Tian ignored their discussions and directly pulled Cheng Fangfang to his seat and sat down.
On the contrary, when Chen Huifang heard what the emperor said, her face turned red, but she did not say anything, but let Lin Tian pull her to sit down.
“Your Majesty, if I remember correctly, Prime Minister Lin is so young, he should not be married yet. When did he have a wife?”
After hearing what the emperor said, an official was full of doubts, so he asked the emperor.
After hearing what the official said, the emperor, the queen, and other officials all turned their eyes to Chen Huifang beside Lin Tian, and looked at Chen Huifang curiously.
Even the emperor had a puzzled look on his face, because Lin Tian had not told him before that Lin Tian was married. In the emperor’s memory, Ming Tian was not married.
But since Lin Tian was able to bring Chen Huifang to this banquet today, it shows how much Lin Tian cares about Chen Huifang, so it is not too much to say that Chen Huifang is his wife.
“Reporting to your majesty, I am not married. I am only thirty years old now, not yet married. She is just a good friend of mine.”
Lin Tian saw that everyone’s eyes were focused on Chen Huifang. Chen Huifang became extremely nervous at this moment, and her body became extremely stiff, so she took the initiative to stand up and spoke to the emperor and the officials.
It would be better if they didn’t listen to Lin Tian’s words. After these officials heard what Lin Tian said, they confirmed their thoughts. Because Lin Tian was obviously trying to cover up his relationship with Chen Huifang, that’s why he said that to them.
Lin Tian didn’t know what they were thinking, but when he saw their eyes today, he understood what they meant, so he couldn’t help but think: “It’s bad.”
Sure enough, when Lin Tian just thought of that, the emperor stood up immediately. When the queen saw that the emperor had stood up, she quickly stood up as well, and then the two came to Lin Tian and Chen Huifang.
Chen Huifang saw that the emperor and the queen stood up and walked towards her, so she quickly stood up and nervously pinched the corner of her clothes.
Lin Tian couldn’t help laughing when he saw Chen Huifang’s appearance, and then he naturally suffered Chen Huifang’s cold eyes. But Lin Tian didn’t dodge, but directly pulled Chen Huifang’s little hand.
Chen Huifang, who had just been blushing because of the emperor’s words, was so shy that she seemed to be dripping with water when she saw Lin Tian holding her little hand in front of so many people.
Chen Huifang wanted to pull her hand back, but Lin Tian held it tightly in her hand, so she couldn’t pull it back at all. In the end, Chen Huifang had to give up the idea of pulling it back and lowered her head shyly.
The Emperor and the Empress came in front of Lin Tian and Chen Huifang, and they saw the two holding hands.
