Chapter 322: Stoppage
Feng Shanyue looked at Yan Xiu's surprised appearance, and couldn't help laughing, after going through so many things, this kid's heart still hasn't changed, he probably didn't think that his sister, who is the queen of big business, is such a bargaining chip for him.
She pulled up Yan Xiu's sleeve and said firmly, "I mean, as your sister and as the queen of the Great Shang, I am willing to be your hostage and ensure your safety in Phoenix City. I think, no matter how bold the lord is, he won't dare to attack me, the queen of the great merchants, right?"
Yan Xiu looked at her in shock, of course he knew that Yan Xin didn't dare to attack the Queen of Great Shang, but Feng Shanyue's move made his cold heart feel a little warm. He smiled and nodded, and walked towards the gate of Phoenix City with Feng Shanyue. Yayue followed behind, her eyes flashing, and she involuntarily glanced into Yan Xiu's personal guards.
Yan Xin had already learned the news that the coffin had come to the city gate, and had just ordered the people to open the city gate and prepare to welcome them out of the city, when he saw Feng Shanyue and Yan Xiu coming hand in hand. His eyes stayed on Feng Shanyue's hand holding Yan Xiu's sleeve for a moment, and immediately looked up at the two of them again, with a slight smile on his face, "Sister, second brother, welcome home!"
Yan Xiu and Yan Xin haven't seen each other for three years, and they find that they have matured a lot.
"Knock to the lord!"
Yan Xin hurriedly stepped forward to help Yan Xiu up and patted his hand, "Second brother has worked hard in Luodi all these years!"
Yan Xiu looked at the guard of honor behind Yan Xin, which was specially prepared to welcome Concubine Wen Yu's coffin into the city, seeing that he was very thoughtfully prepared, his heart was also a little relaxed, and he said gratefully: "Thank you Lord for bothering to arrange it!"
"Okay, why are your brothers so polite?" Yan Xin also saw Yayue following behind, he nodded slightly, and ordered the celebrant to prepare for the spirit ceremony.
Concubine Wen Yu died outside the palace, so naturally she couldn't enter the palace again, so Yan Xin arranged to stop in Fengming Palace. After the welcoming ceremony was over, Yan Xiu and Yayue personally escorted the coffin to Fengming Palace.
Feng Shanyue also followed behind, and Yan Xiu stopped her, "Sister, you are the queen of Dashang, and my mother concubine is just a concubine of Fang Guo, so I dare not bear such a great favor." You better rest in the city!"
"That's not going to work, I'm going to do what I promised you. ”
Yan Xin was the lord of the country, and it was inconvenient to go to escort her, so she smiled and said: "Second brother, since my sister has a heart, let her accompany you! You haven't seen each other in years, have you?"
Yu Linglong can be regarded as Feng Shanyue's first master, and Feng Shanyue naturally wants to meet her.
"When the spirit is over, my sister will take my second brother and second sister back to the palace to live, and I have already arranged a place for you to live. The Queen Mother misses you very much and hopes to meet you. ”
If he stopped outside the palace, Yan Xiu could live in Fengming Palace in the name of filial piety, but when the lord of the country spoke, he couldn't refuse, so he had to nod. Yayue changed her previous posture and followed the training with her head buried from beginning to end, without saying a word.
Fengming Palace can be regarded as the place where Feng Shanyue's fate changed, so when she came here again, she was very emotional. Yan Xiu smiled and said, "Sister, why don't you go around, my second sister and I will send the coffin of the mother concubine to the soul." ”
Feng Shanyue nodded, "Then I'll come back to meet you later." ”
With her identity as the queen of the Great Shang, she is also a little embarrassed in the ceasing ceremony, so it is better to avoid it.
Yan Xiu and Yayue escorted Concubine Wen Yu's coffin to the palace where the concubine stopped the spirit, and Feng Shanyue walked to the square where she used to practice the Feng Yan Dance, and the witches who danced with her at the beginning are now gone. Thinking of Nangong Xue, Feng Shanyue sighed a little, since she entered the palace as a princess, the two have basically broken off contact. With Nangong Xue's character, she definitely doesn't want to rely on her status as a classmate to take advantage of the princess, and she is not easy to force others. The last time I heard about her, it seemed that she entered the witch hall and became a shrine maiden.
"I've seen the Queen!"
Feng Shanyue was startled, and immediately turned around, and found that Yu Linglong was smiling and standing not far behind her, a few years have passed, her appearance has not changed at all, but has added more charm.
"Master!"
Yu Linglong smiled, "Niangniang is now the queen, why don't you change the title of the day?"
"A teacher for one day, a teacher for life!" Feng Shanyue walked quickly in front of her, "The apprentice has seen the master!"
Yu Linglong smiled helplessly, "I have long heard that you are going to escort Concubine Wen Yu's coffin back, so I want to find a chance to meet you." ”
"Would it be better if you came to the palace directly to find me?"
Yu Linglong shook her head, "Some things are inconvenient to say in the palace. ”
"Is it convenient now?"
"Let's go for a walk in the garden!"
Feng Shanyue waved her hand to let Butterfly Dance and her entourage stay away, and then walked towards the small garden with Yu Linglong.
She was about to ask about Yu Linglong's current situation, but she said, "I'm sorry!"
"Huh?
Yu Linglong looked ashamed, "I heard that there were a little twists and turns in your gift with Shang Jun, and this is all caused by our Yu family." ”
"How did the Yu family harm it?"
"Because Concubine Ruyi secretly sent someone to kill Concubine Wen Yu, and deliberately revealed the news, saying that it was sent by the queen. Concubine Wen Yu hated you in the first place, so she directly pointed the finger at you, which is why she appeared at the ceremony. ”
"Sure enough, as we expected, it was really the Ruyi Concubine. ”
"Yes," Yu Linglong was a little pained, she looked at a half-withered tree in the garden, "our Yu family, now like this tree, if it weren't for my brother supporting it on the frontier, it would all wither." My uncle has resigned, and my father is preparing to say goodbye to the lord of the country. This is all because of the Ruyi Concubine. ”
Feng Shanyue frowned, the Yu family has been loyal for generations, and it plays a pivotal role in the Fire Phoenix Kingdom, if they withdraw from the court, it will inevitably cause turmoil in the political situation. Those who were originally jealous of the Jade Family would definitely come out immediately, and then the Fire Phoenix Kingdom would be in big trouble.
"Master, even if it is really done by Concubine Ruyi, it has nothing to do with the Yu family, I don't think the lord of the country will blame you for this. ”
Yu Linglong shook her head, "No, in fact, we have long known that Concubine Ruyi insisted on leaving the palace and living separately, because she had other plans. It's just out of heartache that she lost her husband and child at a young age, and she didn't stop it. Even...... Even I helped a little. ”
Feng Shanyue looked at her in surprise, how could Yu Linglong, who had always been clean and self-conscious, get involved in Concubine Ruyi's plan?
