Chapter 7: The Marriage of Grace 1

On the long skyline in the east, the morning sun full of vitality has hung high above the sky, and the warm sunlight casts countless warm and melting lights on the earth, and the sky is clear and blue. [ ] Fiction

On the top of the palace with the highest level and the most solemn glazed tile heavy eaves hall that was built with great momentum, on the main ridge and vertical ridge of the palace roof, it is decorated with ornaments made of yellow colored glazed tiles, as well as ten kinds of "weeping beasts" in the morning light, it is golden and brilliant, dazzling.

In the midst of countless rays of light, the Chongyang Palace, which is the highest level in the Imperial Palace of the Red Ice Kingdom, is silently showing its brilliance, magnificence, splendor and solemnity.

The hundreds of armor soldiers who were guarding in front of the Chongyang Palace, wearing brown leather armor, holding spears, and a long knife pinned to their waists, as well as the civil and military ministers below the third rank who were waiting on the "Ten Thousand Steps" of the Dan Majesty in front of the Chongyang Palace, had already been hung high in the sky, and the warm sun was warm, and even worse, they were drowsy by the warm sun.

And in the Chongyang Palace, where the lights are hanging high and bright everywhere, Wang Quan, who is wearing a black and red court dress and looks like Yan Ziming, and Yan Qingqiu, who is wearing a big red bird Chaohuang wedding dress, have already stood quietly in the center of the Chongyang Hall with a small half-pillar of incense.

Although there are so many civil and military ministers in the Chongyang Palace, in the huge Chongyang Palace, there has been no change because of the appearance of Wang Quan and Yan Qingqiu, and it is still as silent as before, and even the sound of breathing is almost inaudible.

Although in the eyes of others, Wang Quan should be very tired when he has been standing motionless in such a cumbersome and heavy court dress, but to be honest, Wang Quan feels a little stuffy except for being covered by this cumbersome and heavy court dress, Wang Quan doesn't feel anything else, as for standing tired or something......

When Wang Quan and Mu Wen followed Yan Ziming to practice martial arts, the two of them took three or four hours to step together. Muwen has learned some exercises from his father since he was a child, and this kind of thing is a trivial matter for Muwen. But for Wang Quan, who has never been in contact with martial arts, it is really painful and almost half of his life is about to be removed!

At the beginning of the year when he was forced by Yan Ziming to Zamabu, Wang Quan really felt that the most painful thing in the world was Zamabu. Because every time he finished tying his horse, Wang Quan felt as if he had been dismantled and reassembled all over his body - his head, hands and feet, and his whole body did not look like his own.

In this way, he was painfully practiced by Yan Ziming for more than a year, and after a year, he let Wang Quan tie up the horse for three or four hours. Wang Quan can not only take a horse step with a calm expression and an unchanged face, but also read calmly while holding all kinds of books while holding a horse step.

There was such an unbearable experience of Zamabu back then, not to mention that it was just a small half-column of incense that Wang Quan stood for such a small half of a pillar of incense, that is, Wang Quan stood for a full twelve hours in this cumbersome and heavy court dress, and Wang Quan's brows did not wrinkle!

Of course, although Wang Quan has no problem standing still like this, Yan Qingqiu, who is standing side by side with Wang Quan, she does not have the good body, body, and endurance of Wang Quan.

It's not because Yan Qingqiugui is a princess and can't stand it and is hypocritical. It's just that, compared to Wang Quan's cumbersome and heavy court dress, the big red Hundred Birds Chaohuang wedding dress on Yan Qingqiu's body is not much better!

Yan Qingqiu's gorgeous costumes together weigh more than twenty pounds! Such a weight, no woman can bear it for so long!

And because Yan Qingqiu was just the crown princess who married from Yan Kingdom to Chibing Kingdom, Yan Qingqiu had no right to use chariots in the Imperial Palace of Chibing Kingdom, so Yan Qingqiu had come step by step on this long road from Yuxiu Palace to Chongyang Palace. When he arrived at the "Ten Thousand Steps" in front of Chongyang Palace, Yan Qingqiu was already a little tired.

Later, after ascending the "Ten Thousand Steps" in front of Chongyang Palace, Yan Qingqiu followed Wang Quan, who was transformed into Yan Ziming, under the guidance of the priests of the Red Ice Kingdom. On the Dan Majesty in front of the Chongyang Palace, a complete set of rituals of the Red Ice Kingdom were performed.

Being pressed and dragged by such a complicated and heavy wedding dress, Yan Qingqiu was able to complete the whole set of rituals to worship the heavens without any mistakes, which was already Yan Qingqiu's greatest endurance.

Later, the ritual of sacrificing to the heavens was completed. When Wang Quan walked into the Chongyang Hall with his hand, Yan Qingqiu felt a little relieved that her body, which was heavily pressed by heavy wedding dresses and jewelry, was a little relaxed.

However, as early as when he stopped in the center of the Chongyang Palace, Wang Quan let go of his left hand that was holding Yan Qingqiu's right hand, Yan Qingqiu, who had been tossed since the beginning of Yin Zheng, was already physically and mentally exhausted, and now without Wang Quan's support, and because he was in a foreign court, he had to stand motionless......

If he stood still for a short time, Yan Qingqiu gritted his teeth and survived, but this time the standing time was really a little longer, and Yan Qingqiu, who was only stepping on a pair of small three-inch golden lotuses, was really a little unable to stand......

So, Wang Quan, who was originally holding the attitude of "looking at the nose and the nose and the heart", was about to stand still like this, and suddenly caught a glimpse of the big red figure standing beside him, shaking his body slightly, and his steps moved slightly, as if he was about to fall.

Although Wang Quan has an extremely strong defensive psychology towards Yan Qingqiu, no matter what, Yan Qingqiu is Yan Ziming's legitimate crown princess, and before Yan Qingqiu really did something that had substantial harm to Yan Ziming, Wang Quan felt that he should take care of the delicate Princess Haoyue Her Royal Highness.

Although Wang Quan wanted to take care of Yan Qingqiu, the current situation was-

At Wang Quan's top sat the king and mother of the Red Ice Kingdom, and below that, there were a bunch of civil servants and military generals of the Red Ice Kingdom who were above the third grade, and on such an occasion, it was completely impossible to allow Wang Quan to do whatever he wanted! What's more, Wang Quan, who was wearing Yan Ziming's skin, did not dare to do what he wanted......

However, seeing that Yan Qingqiu's figure shook slightly twice, Wang Quan felt that if he just did this and didn't do anything, he really couldn't stand the master of his family who was lying on the 10,000-year-old Xuanbing bed in the underground dark room of the Qingxin Palace......

But after all, Wang Quan had the heart but was weak, and because of his identity, Wang Quan could only raise his eyes slightly, and quietly looked at the front of him, above the golden ninth order......

Although the ninth order was a little high, Wang Quan only raised his eyelids slightly. I could clearly see that on the golden Nine Dragons throne on the golden pedestal that was more than two meters high in the bright room in the Chongyang Palace, Yan Wulan, who was wearing the "Twelve Chapters" dragon robe, and Shangguan Mei, who was wearing the "Hundred Birds and Phoenix" phoenix robe, were always sitting quietly side by side.

With the eyesight cultivated by years of martial arts practice, even if he was separated from Yan Wulan by a distance of more than ten meters, Wang Quan could clearly see Yan Wulan's face. There was also a trace of undisguised impatience between his eyebrows, and against the backdrop of the bright yellow "Twelve Chapters" dragon robe, anyone could see how bad Yan Wulan's mood was at this time.

Originally, as early as when Wang Quan and Yan Qingqiu were standing in the center of Chongyang Palace, Yan Wulan, who was sitting on the ninth order, should have let the eunuch read the decree. However, Yan Wulan never opened his mouth to let the eunuch announce the decree.

Yan Wulan's abnormal behavior really made the civil and military ministers of the Chongyang Hall look at it in his eyes and be anxious in his heart.

However, although the civil and military ministers standing in this Chongyang Hall at the moment are all officials above the third rank of the Chibing Country, after all, the ministers are under the king, even if they are extremely human ministers, it is impossible for these civil and military ministers to speak out to urge Yan Wulan, the king of the country!

As a result, Wang Quan and Yan Qingqiu could only be the same as those civil and military ministers on both sides. Standing in the Chongyang Palace.

If it was just to let Wang Quan and Yan Qingqiu stand at will, but as the protagonists of today, Wang Quan and Yan Qingqiu were stared at by everyone, they not only had to stand, but also had to stand upright and steady! In this way, although Wang Quan, who had been tempered by Yan Ziming, could bear it, Yan Qingqiu, who stepped on the small three-inch golden lotus, couldn't bear it......

As for Yan Wulan's behavior of not letting the eunuchs announce the decree for a long time, Wang Quan was still a little unclear at first, but now after seeing Yan Wulan's unhappy face. Wang Quan probably understood the reason......

Silently, he turned his gaze to Shangguan Mei, who was sitting next to Yan Wulan, compared to Yan Wulan, who had a poor complexion, Shangguan Mei's complexion looked much better.

Although Shangguan Mei didn't have any smile on her face, just look at Shangguan Mei's dignified and stable appearance. can also know that Shangguan Mei is still in a good mood at this time, at least much better than Yan Wulan, who has an impatient face beside her.

And at the next moment when Wang Quan turned his eyes to look at Shangguan Mei, Shangguan Mei just happened to lean slightly towards Yan Wulan beside her, her lips opened slightly, and she said something to Yan Wulan in a low voice.

Many civil and military ministers under His Royal Highness Chongyang saw Shangguan Mei's small move, but more than ninety percent of the ministers. But they couldn't hear what Shangguan Mei said to Yan Wulan.

The ministers of civil and military affairs in the Chongyang Palace, only Yang Zhongyong, who stood at the forefront of the civil ministers, Xiao Zhi, who stood at the forefront of the generals, and Wang Quan, who had excellent ear power, heard clearly what Shangguan Mei said to Yan Wulan.

Just now, Shangguan Mei said to Yan Wulan in an extremely low voice: "Your Majesty, Xu'er is the prince appointed by the emperor himself after all, and the concubines also know that Xu'er's stupidity does not please the emperor, but today is the day of the wedding of Xu'er and Princess Yanguo, no matter what, please ask the emperor to save some face for Xu'er."

Your Majesty, even if the emperor doesn't save some face for Xu'er, please ask the emperor to at least save some face for the princess of Yan Kingdom! As far as the concubines know, this Princess Haoyue who married into our Chibing Kingdom is the princess born to the current queen of Yan Kingdom, and she is the most favored princess of Yan Kingdom. Your Majesty, think about it, if Yan Guo is the emperor and learns that his favorite princess Haoyue is in our Chibing country, but he was wronged on the day he married Xu'er, what should Yan Guo think about it?

The emperor, it is not that the concubines deliberately criticize the previous dynasty, but please forgive the concubines for saying something rebellious -- our Chibing country is indeed rich and strong, and it covers a wide area, but the Yan country should not be underestimated! Although the Yan country is only one of the five small countries, and the national strength is far less powerful than our Chibing country, the emperor should not forget that behind the Yan country, there is also the Dazhang country......

I have to say that Shangguan Mei's words were extremely measured, and they stopped at the point, which did not overstep her rights too much, but also clearly allowed Yan Wulan to see the current situation.

Maybe it's because Shangguan Mei's words really spoke to Yan Wulan's heart, maybe, just because Yan Wulan was afraid of the huge and powerful foreign relatives behind Shangguan Mei, in short, not long after Shangguan Mei's words, Yan Wulan, who had been squinting silently at the ministers of civil and military affairs in Chongyang Palace, finally had a hint of reaction-

I saw Yan Wulan tilting his head slightly, and said three words concisely to the eunuch who was standing on his left side, wearing a dark blue eunuch hat and dark blue eunuch clothes, holding a dust whisk in his right hand and a bright yellow scroll in his left hand. ”

Xu was not loud because of his physical discomfort, except for Shangguan Mei who was sitting next to Yan Wulan and the eunuch who was standing on Yan Wulan's left, among the civil and military ministers of His Royal Highness Chongyang, only Yang Zhongyong, who was standing at the front of the civil ministers, Xiao Zhi, who was standing at the front of the generals, and Wang Quan, who had excellent ear power, heard what Yan Wulan said.

After Yan Wulan's words fell, the eunuch standing on the side respectfully answered "No", and the eunuch held his whisk, holding the bright yellow scroll, striding forward a few steps, and walked to the vermilion lacquer railing surrounded by the edge of the golden pedestal, which was more than two meters high, and carved with countless waves and moires.

After standing still, I saw the eunuch unfolding the bright yellow scroll in his hand with both hands in his right hand, and then, in the empty Chongyang Palace, I heard the eunuch chant so loudly: "Fengtian carrier, my emperor's edict!"

The shrill voice that belongs to the eunuch is quite penetrating.

As soon as this chant came out, the civil and military ministers in the Chongyang Palace, including Wang Quan and Yan Qingqiu, who were disguised as Yan Ziming, all knelt on their knees, pressed their left hands on their right hands, supported them on the ground, and then slowly kowtowed to the ground, and everyone was in front of their knees and their heads behind their hands.

Outside the Chongyang Palace, under the clear clear sky, the hundreds of armor soldiers wearing brown leather armor, holding spears, and a long knife pinned to their waists guarding in front of the Chongyang Palace, as well as the civil and military ministers below the third rank who were waiting on the "Ten Thousand Steps" of the Dan Majesty in front of the Chongyang Palace, all faced the Chongyang Palace, knelt on the spot, pressed their left hands on their right hands, supported them on the ground, and then slowly kowtowed to the ground, and everyone was also in front of their knees and their heads behind their hands.
