The princess is soft! The sick villain is crazy

Chapter 88 Newlywed

Author: Raising cats every year

The night was thick and heavy, and the house was burning with charcoal. The queen lowered her eyebrows and said gently: "Why is Your Majesty here?"

Emperor Yong was calm and had few desires. Even in the first few years of marriage, he only followed the rules of the palace. Every day, the fifteenth night was in Fengyi Palace. After that, the government affairs became more and more frequent, and Emperor Yong came to Fengyi Palace even less.

Although the couple has been respectful for more than 20 years, they often praise each other and often praise them in the court. However, it is indeed difficult to evaluate how deep the relationship is.

Emperor Yong smiled and said, "If there is nothing to do, can't you come to see the queen?"

"I'm afraid."

Emperor Yong did not speak, but just looked at the queen quietly. He opened his hands and let the queen dress him.

"Yunzhi," he suddenly called the queen's name, "You and I have been married for more than 20 years. In a blink of an eye, the prince is about to get married."

The queen also had a faint smile of relief in her eyes, "Yes. Dun'er is old enough to marry."

"I sat on the throne in a daze back then. Sometimes when I woke up from my dream, I thought I was the ignorant prince, not the king of a country today."

The queen frowned slightly and said, "Your Majesty must not underestimate yourself. You ascend the throne to obey God's will, and this is the instruction of God's destiny."

When he married the fifth prince Wei Pei, it was just an arrangement for the family to win over the imperial power. Taizu did not establish a prince, so even the most unpopular fifth prince was a popular among the aristocratic families. And the most promising princes had long been decided by everyone like Wang Xie and others, and the only one who was left to the Dou family was this unknown fifth prince, who could not even give her a decent wedding.

Who knew that a fire took the lives of three princes. One prince had congenital diseases. The only one who could ascend the throne was the fifth prince Wei Pei. The Dou family became the most noble relative of the capital. For hundreds of years, no family had such luck.

The queen always felt that she was lucky.

Before Emperor Yong chose a concubine, she gave birth to the eldest son, and she also injured her foundation and would not have children in the future. Emperor Yong loved her and was named the crown prince as soon as she was born. For so many years, no one has ever shaken her position as queen.

But why, between them, there is first a Princess Yongning and then a Princess Huaxi?

Even the son she raised himself had an ulterior motive for Princess Huaxi.

"Yaoyao moved to the palace yesterday," Emperor Yong sighed, "I raised her from a baby to such a big age. She has never been too far away from me. Now I feel a little uncomfortable when I see her moving out of the palace."

The queen's smile darkened in an instant.

She smiled slowly and said, "The child will eventually grow up, and your Majesty, the princess, will marry."

"I can't rest assured to her," Emperor Yong lowered his eyes, his expression under the candlelight was a little dim and unclear. "Will she live alone in such a large mansion? I am going to see her now, but she asked me not to go there on the grounds that she was not feeling well and was unable to see people. Yunzhi, I am really worried about her."

The queen's heart was beating, and her palms were inexplicably sweating. Did Luo Peng take action last night? The queen just gave Luo Peng a fatal direction. Who would Luo Peng kill? Whether he succeeded or not was his own business, and it had nothing to do with her Fengyi Palace.

But the Emperor Yong in front of him made the queen feel strange. For more than twenty years, everyone praised Emperor Yong as a wise ruler with a good temper. The ministers gave a stinky face and almost pointed at the nose and scolded Emperor Yong, but they didn't see him feeling angry. Why was she a little panicked in front of Emperor Yong?

She spoke with some difficulty: "Your Majesty, the princess has grown up and has her own worries. After all, you are not the princess' biological father, so you always have to let go..."

Emperor Yong did not nod or shook his head. The insight of twenty years of reign made him see the panic that the queen had inadvertently exposed.

At first he thought that he was similar to the queen, both of whom were generous and kind, neither competing nor strong, and as gentle as water. Later, he changed a lot, and the queen was very different from her original appearance.

Or maybe, he never saw his first wife clearly.

...

A few days after Shu Yao moved to the princess's house, an imperial edict was issued, and Yin Fu, the most popular eunuch around Emperor Yong, came to the door personally, bringing a large number of silk, satin, gold, silver and treasures, saying that it was a housewarming ceremony prepared for her.

"My uncle has sent enough things," Shu Yao sighed with some distress. "If I send it again, I will not be able to let go of my princess's mansion."

"This is all your Majesty's wishes," Yin Fu smiled, "Your Majesty has something to hand over to the princess. Can the princess speak with a step?"

Shu Yao brought him in.

Yin Fu handed her a brocade box.

In the brocade box is a jade talisman and a handwritten letter from Emperor Yong. Emperor Yong wrote on the letter that this jade talisman can mobilize the four "four armies" of Tianwu, Pingri, Longwu and Shenwei, so that Shu Yao must be careful to protect and not give it to others easily.

Shu Yao knew that his uncle had two officials and three yamen around him, and had heard of these imperial guards for a long time, but he didn't know that he had handed her such an important thing. He felt that the brocade box in his arms was much heavier, so he solemnly locked it into the makeup box at the head of his bed.

This mother-of-pearl lacquerware makeup box was a birthday gift given to Shu Yao by Emperor Yong in a certain year. It was made of thin mother-of-pearl and was exquisite and complex. It can present different colors in the sun. Shu Yao’s treasures are placed inside.

She picked and chose in the makeup box and took out a gold comb.

The golden comb is a popular ornament in the previous dynasty. It looks like a hair comb and is inserted into a bun for decoration. It is made of thin pieces of gold foil. Shu Yao's golden comb was made by craftsmen from Yangzhou in the dynasty. It carved the "one year scene" pattern that was popular in this dynasty, and engraved the scenery of the four seasons on the golden comb. The craftsmanship is extremely exquisite, and there is no second one in the world.

Princess Jiayi asked her for a long time before, but she was not willing to send the gold comb out. There should be no young lady who could refuse such beautiful jewelry, so she used this as a wedding for the future princess.

Shu Yao took out another jade pendant and packed it in a lacquered wooden box. She was about to wait for the prince to get married and send it to him.

The prince's wedding date is scheduled in December.

The crown prince’s wedding was a happy event for everyone to celebrate. The imperial city was decorated with new decorations, and the guards of honor were parked outside the city gate. The guards were dressed in purple, wearing gongs and drums, while the palace maids wore beads and embroidered hairpins on their heads, and even the carriages were carefully decorated with red canopies, and were led by four red horses, which was extremely gorgeous.

The wedding started in the evening. Shu Yao first went to the palace to accompany the empress dowager, and the grandparents and grandchildren talked for a long time before they walked towards Chengqian Palace together.

This is the first royal prince to marry and the prince. Many princes and nobles returned to the capital in order to attend the banquet, and the palace was much more lively than before. Shu Yao glanced at him and saw many strange and familiar faces in the hall.
