Chapter 200: The Wedding Banquet (1)
Chenxin got married as scheduled!
She thought that her sacrifice could be exchanged for Li Changsheng's peace, she thought that her father was a human being, and he had already succumbed, so he would not be killed!
But she was still so naΓ―ve!
On the day of the wedding, she saw her destined husband, a middle-aged man who was not confused, and she also saw her father-in-law, a gray-haired but energetic old man. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Mu Xuesong got married, the princess got married, and the saint attached great importance to it, even if Mu Chengjiang, who was far away in Cangzhou, even if he was reluctant, he still came to the imperial capital.
That day, it was really very grand, and it was so grand that it even made her feel that after the wedding was sealed, she sneered disdainfully, looking at the swarming ministers and concubines, the smell of men's sweat and the smell of women's fat powder were intertwined, which was really uncomfortable, but her father could laugh so frankly and wantonly.
Today, she did not put on the big red hijab, because she refused, because she cut the red hijab that she had prepared into a pile of crumbs, and she would hold her head high, as the rumors had preached, to be the proudest of women! She wanted to see clearly the disgusting hypocritical face of the world, and she wanted to see the unconcealable embarrassment of the person she hated in her cold and iron-cold face.
No matter how loud and noisy the sound of drums and firecrackers was, and no matter how joyful the voices of congratulations were, Chen Xin kept a black face and stared at everyone who appeared in her sight! Especially her father!
But in fact, she knew that no one would really come to see her, and whether she showed joy or anger or sadness, the ending would be the same!
It's just that she may not be able to predict the biggest scene of this wedding!
Tonight, Yun Tian did not come, Xi Ze came to Mu Mansion alone with the honor guard and the Royal Forest Army on the grounds that Yun Tian was unwell!
Of course, even if everyone sees the hidden turbulence, they may not be able to say it!
- It's just the emperor's daughter, and it is also announced that she is married to the emperor's favorite princess, and Mu Xuesong is also the emperor's most favored minister.
Qi Ye and Xia Wanfeng were standing on Xi Ze's side, and Wang Shouxing was standing on Qi Ye's side, they stood in a row, looking at the Mu clan and their henchmen who were standing in a row opposite with cold eyes and no smile.
The smiles on the faces of both parties seem to announce that this is an extremely happy wedding!
However, Mu Chengjiang, who has not seen him for many years, seems to have a deep resentment towards this "coercive" invitation, or, this return to Beijing is categorically not in his plan, all the Cangzhou troops he brought back were ordered to be stationed in the imperial capital except for a hundred personal guards, and from the time he stepped into the imperial capital, the gate of the imperial capital was forcibly closed for extremely reluctant reasons, and no one was allowed to enter, let alone those Cangzhou troops stationed outside the imperial capital to pass the news to the Mu family. The only way they could enter was to storm the gates of the Imperial Capital with a rebellion!
This is a situation that suddenly appeared until Mu Chengjiang arrived at the gate of the imperial capital, how long did Xi Ze prepare before this, and what preparations he made, there was no wind at all, just like Xi Ze suddenly gave Chen Xin like to Mu Xuesong to make a continuation The day before the holy decree was issued, no one knew!
It was not Mu Xuesong who went to the city gate to greet Mu Chengjiang, on the same day, Mu Xuesong was forcibly left in the palace by Sixi under various pretexts from the time he entered the palace, so it was Xia Wanfeng and Wang Shouxing who came to the city gate to greet Mu Chengjiang and the thousands of elite Imperial Forest Army led by them!
Both sides of the street were full of people, even the upstairs windows were crowded with people, everyone was happy to celebrate the arrival of General Mu, Xia Wanfeng smiled like a spring breeze, and greeted Mu Chengjiang in a strange way, saying false crown words, reciting Xi Ze's will, Mu Chengjiang was extremely angry at this sudden will, although he knew that this was a Hongmen banquet before he came, but he didn't want the opening of this Hongmen banquet to start from his first step into the imperial capital!
In his deep and blazing eyes, he saw that the so-called onlookers crowded in the attic on the upper floor of the street were simply disguised archers, so, except for the royal guards in formal clothes, I don't know how many masters were hidden among these innocent-looking people!
Because of impulsiveness and unpreparedness to resist or even rebel, now there is no chance of winning, this Wang Shouxing he knows best, even if he gallops on the field for decades in the end, he is old, he is not Wang Shouxing's opponent at all.
If it weren't for the conspiracy of the Mu clan and the internal affairs government and some forbidden troops to separate the Wang family and the Xia family, which was carefully planned by the Mu clan's henchmen, would have been completely defeated, the current situation would have been reversed: Xi Ze is fish and meat, and he is a sword!
However, the heavens are not beautiful, and the Mu family made a mistake!
So, he can only endure!
I endured it until today, and Chenxin married into Mu Mansion!
This forbearance is too painful, this is really not in line with the temperament of the Mu family, no, after Chenxin and Mu Xuesong finished worshipping the hall, the master of ceremonies didn't have time to finish reading the last sentence "Licheng, send it to the cave room", Mu Chengjiang interrupted loudly: "You are the eldest princess?" β
The master of ceremonies glanced at Xi Ze embarrassedly, Xi Ze didn't look at him, Sixi shook his head at the master of ceremonies obediently, and there was silence below!
The atmosphere changed from the lively and festive just now to a strange dead silence, and all the guests were very cooperative to keep silent and look at Chenxin with an indifferent face below, without saying a word, just like watching a play and seeing the most critical place, everyone held their breath and waited for the climax to come! I'm afraid that one of my own will accidentally disturb the scene that sings fascinated on the stage, so that this play will fall short at a critical moment!
Chen Xin knew that at this moment, no one would stand up and say a word for herself, even Ling Wei was sent to the Severe Punishment Division by Xi Ze on the grounds that she was not serving the queen effectively, and Yue Heng, who really took pity on her, was just standing in the pile of princes with a sad face, with Yun Tian's warning, Yue Heng didn't dare to say a word, and her tears only dared to flow up her heart, and she didn't even dare to disappear with a smile!
Chen Xin met Mu Xuesong's gaze, this was the first time she had seen her father-in-law, she didn't need to be introduced by others, she also knew who he was, she replied without humility or arrogance: "That's right, this palace is the eldest princess!" β
Mu Chengjiang suddenly smiled, he reached out and stroked his gray beard, looking like a kind old man, he really couldn't see where there was a dark scheming, and his words were full of wit: "The princess is worthy of being a golden branch and jade leaf, and she really looks moving, but today is the princess's big joy out of the pavilion, why does she keep a cold face?" β
