Three days later, it was still dark. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Zhang Wan had a solemn face, dressed up, dressed in the luxurious dress of the crown princess, accompanied by an armor, especially heroic husband Zhu Youjiao, and appeared outside the Fengxian Palace.
At noon today, the crown prince Zhu Youzhu was about to lead the troops to the battle, before that, as the prince of the country, he was accompanied by officials of the Ministry of Rites, and came to worship his ancestors in order to seek refuge.
As the crown princess, Zhang Wan could not have come, but in order to show her sincerity in front of the hundred officials, she still came with her husband. Even if she can't take a step into this Fengxian Hall at this time.
"Your Highness," outside the Fengxian Hall, Zhang Wan took her husband's hand and smiled gently, "You can go in." Wan'er, I'm waiting for you here. "This Fengxian Hall is a place for the royal family to pay tribute to their ancestors, and women are not allowed to enter unless they are queens.
At this time, although Zhang Wan is the original wife of the crown prince Zhu Youjiao, she is only the crown princess in the end, so naturally she cannot enter.
"Okay," Zhu Youzhu nodded, looking at his wife's gentle face, his heart was also extraordinarily calm. "Wan'er, you wait for me here. ā
Wait for me to return from a great victory, wait for me..... Then join hands with you and enter this temple of the ancestors.
After her husband Zhu Youzhu stepped into the Fengxian Palace, Zhang Wan narrowed her eyes slightly.
That Wan Guifei was so bold that she dared to put her eyes and ears on the left and right of this Fengxian Palace.
Zhang Wan stood with her hands down, looking respectful, but the corner of her eyes was after looking at the nine-song corridor on the side, and smiled quietly.
Interestingly, since you have to come to this temple to find out, then I will fulfill you.
After a while, Zhang Wan seemed to be a little tired, and took half a step back slightly, leaning against the big pillar on the side, while Xuemei, the palace maid who had been secretly observing her behind her, was moved.
Crown Princess, Crown Princess, you are so disrespectful in front of this Fengxian Palace, if it is known, what should you do!
Xue Mei sneered, seeing that none of the adults in front of her noticed this. Under the cover of the nine-song corridor, he quietly came behind Zhang Wan.
After a few breaths, she saw that Zhang Wan had her eyes closed and seemed to be asleep, and she was overjoyed, and she quickly exclaimed, intending to attract the attention of everyone around.
You know, what a solemn place this Fengxian Hall is? If the crown princess was found asleep by everyone when she was worshipping her ancestors here, what a serious crime it would be.
What's more, now, when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is going out for this expedition and worshipping the ancestors.
When this princess worships her ancestors, she is so insincere, if the war is unfavorable in the future, wouldn't she be to blame!
Now, I have made such a great contribution to the concubine Niangniang, I am afraid that there is also a place for me in this harem, right?
Xuemei made a calculation, glanced at Zhang Wan proudly, and was about to turn around and leave quietly, but her expression suddenly froze.
What's going on? But in the blink of an eye, how could the crown princess Zhang Wan stand here straight again?
Could it be that he was dazzled just now?
Xuemei couldn't help but rub her eyes, but when she rubbed it, her eyes were dilated, and she didn't seem to know anything.
So, everyone who was attracted by Xuemei's exclamation, as soon as they turned around, they saw a woman who looked like a palace maid, and she actually pushed away the crown princess Zhang Wan with a big grin, and broke into the Fengxian Hall without any scruples......
What a solemn and sacred place this Fengxian Palace is! How can a woman in the palace enter at will? Even the queen mother of the middle palace can only enter and exit with the emperor within a certain period of time; how favored are the ten thousand concubines, for so many years, they have never stepped into this Fengxian Palace, let alone a small palace maid!
But now, this little palace maid is so bold that she dares to break into this Fengxian Hall alone in full view of everyone!
It's really daring, I don't know whether to live or die!
"Come on, don't go in and take down this bold slave!" I don't know who scolded loudly, and the officials, chamberlains and Praetorian Guards around them instantly came back to their senses from their stunned eyes.
"Someone, someone, don't hurry up and stop this bold slave!"
"What about the Praetorian Guards, what are they doing?"
"It's really unreasonable, a little palace maid dares to be so bold. In this harem, it's too unorthodox. ā
Under the hustle and bustle of everyone, but in a moment's effort, the palace maid Xuemei was dragged out of the Fengxian Palace. It was only at this time that her eyes gradually returned to her senses.
How could he break into the temple of the ancestors?
When Xuemei looked at the sword crossed next to her neck, she couldn't help but lose her face and exclaimed.
"No, the slave didn't break into the Fengxian Palace, the slave didn't know anything, the slave and the maid were wronged, please be the master of the slave and the maid!"
It's a pity that the evidence is conclusive. No matter how Xuemei shouted grievances, the adults in the court and the central government on the side were unmoved.
"Come on, this dares to shout so much in front of the Fengxian Palace, what kind of system has it become? ā
When Xuemei heard this, her heart moved. He is the confidant of the concubine Niangniang, if this matter is finally decided by the concubine Niangniang, then, wouldn't he still have a chance to live?
But at this moment, a cold voice instantly shattered Xuemei's hope.
"Wait!" Zhang Wan took a step forward and looked at Xuemei who was being dragged away, but Zou frowned. "Ladies and gentlemen, if this palace is not mistaken, this palace maid seems to be Sister Xuemei next to the concubine of Guan Ju Palace. ā
As soon as Zhang Wan's voice fell, the surroundings suddenly remembered the sound of gasping cold air.
What, this turned out to be Wan Guifei's person!
Today, when the prince is about to go on an expedition, and when he is worshipping the ancestors, this ten thousand concubines have sent people to make a big fuss about the ancestral hall, this is ......!
When everyone thought of this, they couldn't help but sweat coldly.
Although the arrogance of this Wan Guifei is well known, the people present never imagined that this Wan Guifei would be so arrogant!
made a big fuss in the Fengxian Palace, this noble concubine Niangniang, did she ignore the ancestral inheritance, and the country and the society were in trouble?
Or is it that in order to deal with His Royal Highness the Prince, the concubine is not even willing to do superficial work?
Everyone looked at the palace maid Xuemei, who was dragged aside with her mouth covered, and for a while, they had to look at each other, but they didn't know what to do.
This cheap maid, since she is the person of the noble concubine, she must not be handed over to Guan Ju Palace like this.
It's just that if you don't hand it over to Guan Ju Palace, where should you hand it over?
Moreover, this matter is a big matter, not only involving the dispute of the harem, but also involving the affairs of the previous dynasty. If so, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince lost the battle in front this time, who will bear the responsibility for such a crime?
Then, at that time, will anyone bring up today's matter? This crime of trespassing into the Fengxian Palace, intending to sabotage His Royal Highness the Prince's ancestor worship and causing the defeat of the battle on the front line, is enough to punish the nine clans.
Xue Mei naturally knows such a crime.
At this time, facing everyone's gloomy faces, Xuemei closed her eyes in despair.
Xuemei's life and death naturally no one cares, and the officials present who knew the stakes in this matter looked at the crown princess Zhang Wan on the side at the same time.
At this time, only this princess is the most suitable to deal with this matter.
After all, it was her husband who worshipped her ancestors in the Fengxian Palace, and among the people present at this time, she was the only one with the highest status and the only harem master!
