376.Chapter 376 - Collapse
Emperor Chu paused, his unfathomable gaze slowly swept across the audience, and then continued the second half of the sentence, "It was decided to marry Ling Lang." ”
Mu Yongchao breathed a sigh of relief silently, judging from the tone revealed by Emperor Chu before, this marriage was expected.
No matter what, it is an honor to be married by Emperor Chu himself.
The big stone in his heart fell, and Mu Yongchao immediately secretly pulled Mu Yunzhao, who was sitting still like a wooden chicken, and was about to kowtow to Emperor Chu to thank him, when he saw Emperor Chu's eyes roll, but he turned his head and ordered the attendant, "Invite her over." ”
Seeing this, everyone was curious and stretched their necks to look at the entrance of the main hall.
Even Mu Xiaofeng was a little curious about what kind of bride Emperor Chu would give Mu Yunzhao. But no matter what, it is certain that Emperor Chu would never be kind enough to give Mu Yunzhao a normal bride.
The shame of the Imperial Fresh Pavilion was definitely an unforgettable experience for Emperor Chu, the dignified monarch of a country.
It's a man, and you can't think of it as an experience that hasn't happened.
Regardless of whether Mu Yunzhao was innocent or designed, or whether he deliberately insulted Ji Meiren, in short, Mu Yunzhao once tried to get involved with his woman, this is an indisputable fact.
At this moment of great attention, Mu Xiaofeng did the opposite, lowered his eyes to hide the coldness in his eyes, and muttered in a low voice, "It's really an exciting scene." ”
After a while, the bride that everyone was looking forward to finally appeared at the door of the main hall with the support of two palace maids.
The bride's bright red dress is really eye-catching on this occasion.
However, in addition to the bride's auspicious dress that suits the occasion, the bride who should have been wearing a red hijab for the occasion did not wear a red hijab for the occasion, but the thick bridal makeup on her face was very suitable for the occasion.
Everyone saw her clumsy figure at a glance, first stunned, and then stared at her face that was extremely scary, and suddenly many people with poor concentration whispered one after another, "Ah, this face, this age." ”
Mu Xiaofeng pursed his lips and chuckled, rolling his bright eyes, and the smile in his eyes was deeply unexpected.
"Look at this special bridal face, it's really unexpected."
A face that was so old that all skin was wrinkled, a head full of silver hair whiter than snowflakes, a waist so stiff that it could not be straightened even with the support of two young palace maids, and the staggering steps that could not be taken quickly.
After a cursory observation, Mu Xiaofeng came to the conclusion that this bride should be older than the old lady in her family.
"Mu Yunzhao is not marrying a bride, but a genuine bride, well, an old lady who is older than her own mother." The girl smiled in a low voice, her eyes full of extremely amazing brilliance, "Today's banquet is really exciting, and the next good show is really exciting." ”
Almost everyone was stunned by the bride's terrifying old face, and naturally no one noticed Mu Xiaofeng's silent murmur.
Mu Yunzhao, who was given marriage by Emperor Chu's golden mouth, was so frightened when he saw clearly what kind of age and appearance the bride was supported by the palace maid, and he couldn't even close his mouth when he opened his mouth.
He stared in horror at the bride's disgustingly wrinkled face, and his eyes were so wide that he couldn't even move his eyeballs.
The audience was dumbfounded, and the bride, who had been buried in half of the loess in the last years, finally walked slowly to the palace with the support of the palace maid.
Emperor Chu seemed to casually plunder Mu Yongchao and Mu Yunzhao, and seeing that the two of them were still sluggish and shocked and unacceptable and unable to react, his face immediately sank, and he snorted coldly, "Why, Mu Shilang is not satisfied with my marriage for Linglang."
Not only is it dissatisfied, it is simply very, very dissatisfied, or I am very unwilling from the bottom of my heart.
However, even if Mu Yongchao wanted to say it very much, he would never dare to say it.
And Emperor Chu is naturally very clear about these thoughts about him, but it is because he knows that he must give this marriage today.
If you dare not be satisfied with the holy decree, then wait for the whole family to fall to the ground.
Mu Yongchao swallowed his saliva secretly, and opened and closed his mouth several times with great difficulty; Seeing this, Mu Yunzhao, who was still sitting in a daze, finally saw what he wanted to say from his reluctant expression.
However, how could he be willing to marry the old woman who wanted to vomit just by looking at it.
"Father" Mu Yunzhao had a face that was obviously a little angry, and finally came back to his senses, and called Mu Yongchao anxiously pleading, and then shook his head quickly and vigorously. didn't dare to say it in front of Emperor Chu, he really didn't want to tell him in his heart, so he could only look at Mu Yongchao with pleading eyes, and blink desperately to show his refusal, "I don't want to, I don't want to, whoever wants to marry that old woman will marry him"
Mu Yongchao was willing in his heart, but since Emperor Chu opened this mouth, he would never allow them to refuse.
They have to marry if they want to, and they have to marry if they don't want to.
Mu Yongchao lowered his face, suppressed his impetuous mood, slowly closed his eyes, lowered his head, and said in a very soft voice, "Yun Zhao, this is the holy decree. ”
Failure to obey the order is the sin of killing the head.
Whether to marry an old woman and go back to provide for it, or to resist the decree and let the whole family follow the ground, which is more important, do you still need to measure?
It's simply something you don't have to choose.
Even if Mu Yunzhao is unlearned, he will slowly understand the seriousness of the matter from his father's face.
However, if he really marries that old woman, who can make him so disgusted that he vomits all the overnight food just by looking at it, he can't do it, even if he can't do it reluctantly.
Mu Yong Chaoyan didn't know what kind of virtue his son was, and when he saw his hesitant appearance, he immediately frowned and quickly pulled Mu Yunzhao.
Because the two of them were silent for too long, it had already made Emperor Chu above look displeased.
Mu Yunzhao was suddenly dragged hard by his father, and immediately staggered and fell from the chair.
Mu Yongchao immediately leaned close to him and whispered in his ear, "That woman, if you don't marry, you have to marry." ”
Mu Yunzhao wanted to resist again, but Mu Yongchao immediately glared at him viciously, "If it weren't for your usual trouble, how would you get today's retribution." ”
"Hurry up, kneel down with me and thank Your Majesty."
Mu Yongchao no longer allowed him to refuse to refute, so he directly dragged him again, and secretly tripped his legs.
Mu Yunzhao didn't notice it for a while, and was immediately tripped by him and fell to his knees.
Mu Yongchao immediately bowed to the ground, endured the deep reluctance in his heart, made a grateful look, and said in a loud voice, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”
At this point, Mu Yunzhao knew that there was no possibility of reversing the matter, so he could only follow behind his father, and slowly bowed his head and kowtowed, but his voice was inevitably a little reluctant, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”
Emperor Chu saw that although the father and son were reluctant, he finally understood the truth that his arms couldn't twist his thighs, and he should marry them. immediately hid the happiness and sneer in his heart, showed a gentle and happy look, and said slowly, "Okay, you all get up." ”
"This Hakka has been waiting for me, Mu Yunzhao, after you marry someone back, you have to treat her well."
It's a reminder to knock and a warning.
For the first time in his life, Mu Yunzhao deeply understood what it meant to be involuntarily, and it was also the first time he tasted what it meant to be bitter.
What kind of marriage did the emperor give, that old woman is a big Buddha. A big Buddha that can't be beaten or scolded, can only be offered well.
Oh no, this is more powerful than the Buddha to be worshipped, the person who has served the emperor, that is not a bright eyeliner
Thinking of this, not only Mu Yongchao's heart was very blocked, but even Mu Yunzhao, who was still ignorant and did not know the stakes well, also felt panicked.
Mu Xiaofeng looked at the aggrieved and disgusting faces of the father and son, and felt a little happy in his heart.
I have to say that Emperor Chu's hand is really beautiful, so that people can't find fault with it.
With Mu Yongchao and Mu Yunzhao, the father and son, reluctant to thank them, the marriage finally came to an end.
However, everyone didn't think that today's banquet could continue calmly.
Although Mu Yunzhao had already led the old bride out of the hall after obeying the order, the expression on his face full of forbearance, disgust and anger just now was still deeply imprinted in everyone's minds.
In the main hall, the sound of silk music continued to sound.
But this atmosphere is obviously a little sluggish and cold.
With the deeds of Mu Yunzhao in front of him, no one will be able to relax and drink.
After watching the dance performance for a while, Emperor Chu probably felt that there was nothing new, so he waved all the dancing girls out with a big wave of his hand.
The main hall returned to its previous tense and cold atmosphere in an instant, and Emperor Chu, the culprit of all this, seemed to be unconscious.
He slowly glanced around at everyone, and suddenly showed an unfathomable appearance again, and said slowly, "As far as I know, there is a daughter of Aiqing who is sensitive, virtuous and intelligent, and is a rare heroine among women, and a great heroine. ”
Emperor Chu spoke very smoothly, and this series of praise words resounded in the main hall, almost instantly shocking the hearts of the ministers who had unmarried daughters.
One by one, they couldn't help but secretly guess in their hearts, their Majesty is addicted to marriage today
Otherwise, he wouldn't have just pointed out an old palace maid to Mu Yunzhao, and he would mention Duan Min Shuhui's daughter again.
The ministers who had unmarried daughters in their families were terrified one by one, and when they secretly aimed at Emperor Chu from the corner of their eyes, they saw that Emperor Chu's unfathomable gaze seemed to be intentionally or unintentionally cast on Mu Tianda's side.
It seems that he deliberately condensed on Mu Xiaofeng's body.
Emperor Chu's move really made everyone suspicious and surprised.
However, Mu Xiaofeng, the party who was hinted at by Emperor Chu's gaze, was the most calm and calm, completely like a nobody. didn't care about Emperor Chu's eyes full of imperial majesty, only smiled indifferently and lowered his eyes to enjoy tea leisurely with a cup.
In fact, only people with a little brain can figure out that Emperor Chu deliberately misled everyone, thinking that the daughter he praised was her.
But in fact, the person Emperor Chu wanted to praise was definitely not her.
As for why Emperor Chu did this
Mu Xiaofeng felt that in addition to the fact that this high-ranking emperor wanted to create that tense, depressing and unfathomable atmosphere in front of everyone, he was probably taking the opportunity to secretly test something.
As for what to tempt
Mu Xiaofeng lowered the corners of his eyes, as if he was inadvertently looking at His Royal Highness the King with an expression from beginning to end in the main hall.
She guesses that it has nothing to do with this guy.
I also know that Emperor Chu has just given Mu Yunzhao a marriage; Although this matter was an extremely glorious thing on the surface, just now he deliberately let the old bride appear in front of everyone, and he knew that Emperor Chu definitely meant to humiliate Mu Yongchao.
In this case, how could Emperor Chu give marriage to Mu Mansion again.
If he made the target so obvious, he was afraid that the courtiers would not say it on the surface, and there would definitely be no less voices of discussion in private.
Behind a marriage that cannot be refused, what Emperor Chu wants to express to everyone is his unquestionable absolute power as an emperor.
"As far as I know, this heroine who doesn't let her eyebrows shave is still unmarried." Emperor Chu seems to think that today's stimulation is not enough, and he seems to deliberately want to make people think that he is really addicted to marriage today, and he really directly reveals such a meaning.
After saying that, his gloomy gaze slowly swept across the main hall again, but he once again condensed at Mu Xiaofeng, intentionally or unintentionally.
Once it was a coincidence, and twice it was definitely intentional.
There are some thoughtful people in the main hall, and when they see where Emperor Chu's sight falls, they will inevitably be a little suspicious and happy to secretly guess that Emperor Chu's intentions are intended.
It's just that Emperor Chu's gaze was only a very brief glimpse.
Before most people could perceive the meaning, he turned away as if nothing had happened. As a result, most of the ministers in the main hall who had unmarried daughters in their families inevitably became more and more uneasy when they saw him emphasize the intention of this move again.
On the other hand, Mu Xiaofeng, who was pushed into the focus by Emperor Chu's gaze twice, was calm and calm, which was simply breathtaking.
Seeing this, Emperor Chu couldn't help frowning extremely unhappily, and snorted heavily secretly; Then he rolled his lowered eyebrows and eyes, as if he inadvertently glanced at a certain part of the main hall.
Chu Lige's performance was even calmer and calmer than Mu Xiaofeng.
He never raised his eyes from beginning to end, and his cold and indifferent gaze remained fixed on the glass in his hand, as if the light amber liquor in the cup had given birth to a flower that people couldn't take their eyes off.
Seeing this, Emperor Chu hummed with displeasure but ambivalence in his heart.
This kid is calm.
But it doesn't matter if this plan doesn't work, he always has a way to get this kid to take the bait voluntarily.
When Emperor Chu secretly looked at Mu Xiaofeng and Chu Lige, the queen sitting beside him, her cold gaze was also quietly flowing between Mu Xiaofeng and Chu Lige.
These two people were calm.
However, this is also to be expected. If these two are really so easy to get into, she will have to re-examine them.
The corners of the queen's lips slightly hooked a cold smile, and Mu Xiaofeng's gaze became more and more dark, and the emotion in it was not visible. Gently lowering his eyes, there is a cold flow from the corner of his eye.
Later, she has her own way to make these two people sit down calmly and calmly
