Chapter 576: Shocking Horses
Your Majesty, is this going to make her directly promoted to the queen?
Wei Wan's hand holding the corner of the brocade quilt trembled imperceptibly, if she became the queen, wouldn't that mean that the emperor was willing to bury everything in the past?
Empress Xiaoyuan is no longer the only queen he has ever had......
She pressed the frenzy in her heart, looked up at the emperor standing beside her, and whispered tentatively:
"But this is not in accordance with the rules, the concubine, the concubine is only a concubine and not a queen......"
The emperor didn't fail to understand the expectation in Wei Wan's eyes, but before the time came, how could he make a promise?
He looked away, his smile unchanged:
"But what about the concubine? I said to take you and you can go. ”
Wei Wan slowly let go of her fingers, and her smile slowly bloomed.
She got up and got out of bed, knelt down and thanked her:
"The concubine thanked the emperor!"
To worship the ancestors as a concubine...... That's also good, isn't it? There should be more excitement in the court.
The spark that was ruthlessly extinguished seemed to have never appeared in the bottom of my heart, and it couldn't burn a trace of warmth.
The next day, the emperor issued an order to finalize the entourage of the ancestors on Chinese New Year's Eve, Wei Beihou and Liang Guogong, and the prince of Qin were impressively listed.
And the concubine who accompanied the emperor was Wan Guifei!
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the court, which had been quiet for a few days, began to quarrel again.
The king of Anxi County, led by the old ministers of the clan, and others thought that Wan Guifei's qualifications were too shallow, and it was already beyond the norm to make an exception to be awarded the title of concubine, if they still followed to worship their ancestors, where would they put the rules of the ancestors?
And the faction of officials led by Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites simply suggested that the emperor promote Concubine Wan to be the empress and go to worship the ancestors in the name of justice.
But a woman from a humble background was promoted to the queen like this, there has never been such a thing in the Great Qi Dynasty, besides, the emperor's eternal decree after the death of Empress Xiaoyuan was eaten by dogs?
Everyone still remembered that holy decree vividly, and it was taken out by the people of the clan to say something, and Wei Beihou also blushed and asked the emperor roughly.
The two factions quarreled happily, and Song Wenru, who had always been with the mud, sternly opposed, and failed to shake the emperor's determination to take Concubine Wan to worship the ancestors, and on Chinese New Year's Eve, the weather was clear, and when the important ministers who wanted to accompany him went to the palace gate to wait for the emperor to rely on, they found that Concubine Wan's Che Luan was closely behind the emperor!
"Fang Handong, bastard!"
Some people in the clan secretly gritted their teeth, this must be a good thing that the Ministry of Rites secretly received the emperor's dictation!
The king of Anxi County quietly pressed down the few clan relatives who were about to move, and glanced at the officials who were silent at the Yushitai, and looked indifferent:
"That's it, today's ancestor worship, whoever makes trouble at the moment is that he can't get along with the ancestors and the ancestors, and he can't get along with the emperor. ”
The clan relatives swallowed this breath alive, silently got into their respective cars, and followed the emperor to the Taimiao in the east of the city.
The young children of this generation of clan relatives are all riding forward, walking together neatly, and they are familiar faces to each other, but Xiao Shaotang is still not so familiar to them.
In terms of appearance, few people in the Xiao family are ugly, but if they compare them in terms of momentum, they suddenly find that in the solemn ancestor worship procession at this time, they are completely different from the prince of Qin, who is in the lead.
Walking with Xiao Shaotang, who has a vigorous posture and increasingly calm and sharp eyes, they inexplicably feel a lot of pressure, as if the person who walked in front on a black horse was invisibly much stronger than them - not only his status and status, but also because of the iron-blooded breath revealed in his back!
Under the impact of such an aura, the sons and daughters of the clan who followed behind were even in a trance - the world that Taizu got on the back of the horse back then, and the descendants of future generations should not forget their ancestors, but these descendants of Taizu, in addition to being able to ride horses, which one of them is Wencheng Wu?
Since the Xiao family's god of war, King Qin, was degraded by the first emperor, which of them was not raised as sheep?
And their flock of sheep naturally wanted to submit to the emperor at the front, kneeling at his feet, and not daring to say a word when he was crushed into mud!
Xiao Shaotang didn't care about the different eyes behind him, he just walked forward calmly, relaxed on the outside, but on the inside he was on guard - how the emperor wanted to deal with him today, he couldn't even find out how Wei Wan knocked on the side, but he never believed that the emperor could let him finish this trip smoothly!
When going out of the city gate, everyone's horses were a little messy, and someone behind them couldn't restrain their horses and crashed straight forward, Xiao Shaotang only heard a neigh, and the horses under the seat rushed forward!
And before Xiao Shaotang, it was the carriage of the older generation of clan relatives, still moving slowly, if he wanted to avoid the people rushing behind him, he would rush over like this, and it would immediately cause turmoil!
"Ah, it's a surprise!
Some of the people who witnessed this scene were already shouting in a panic!
Xiao Shaotang's eyes flashed a sharp light, his left hand tried his best to pull the horse with raised hooves, and forcibly controlled the horse to sit down and turned around on the spot, and his hooves narrowly landed on the open space behind the carriage in front, and then stretched out his right hand sideways, and the horse that rushed up behind was firmly held by Xiao Shaotang!
The rough reins almost broke the skin of Xiao Shaotang's palm, but at this time, Xiao Shaotang couldn't care about the sharp pain in his palm, and with a sudden force, he was able to deflect the head of the horse that almost hit the carriage in front of him, and carried the owner who was already frightened and paralyzed on the horse's back to run diagonally!
All this was only between the lightning and flint, and when the guards of the Imperial Forest Army reacted, they saw a horse rushing out of the team diagonally, and several people hurriedly worked together to restrain the horse, which can be regarded as completely eliminating the crisis of hitting the carriage in front!
"Ahh
The man on the horseback was already frightened and let out a frightened cry, and someone in front of him looked back to see what was going on.
Xiao Shaotang only heard the angry rebuke of the king of Anxi:
"You useless thing, if you dare to make a mistake again today, get back to me!"
He was answered by a whimpering and defensive, as if he had been twitched:
"Son, child, wronged...... Someone hit the child's horse...... Someone deliberately ......"
The person who was scared half to death was Xiao Shaofan, the prince of Anxi County, a big man, who was so frightened that he couldn't move on horseback, which was embarrassing enough, and a burst of mocking laughter suddenly sounded around him.
But more people are focusing on Xiao Shaotang, who can control horses with both left and right hands - is it because his father is the king of Qin, and he grew up in the northwest, so he is so skilled?
Xiao Shaotang also turned around immediately, his phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and his cold gaze swept over the faces of everyone behind him, which of these people planned to use the prince of Anxi County to collide with the carriage in front of him and cause turmoil?
If he didn't control his horse, or didn't control Xiao Shaofan's horse, then at this moment, he had been taken down by the Royal Forest Army!
