Chapter 292: The Queen (1st Update)
β¦β¦ Not to mention the Eastern Yuan Kingdom, even the entire Zhongzhou Continent, there is no man like Xie Dongli who personally performs a ceremony for his fiancΓ©e.
Ying Sleeve felt that he was going to drown in Xie Dong's eyes.
She looked up at him in a daze, her heart completely out of her control, sometimes beating so wildly that it was about to burst out of her throat, and sometimes it was motionless, as if she didn't know how to beat.
Every minute and every inch of his body was sour, his muscles were crisp and his bones were soft, and his body kneeling on the brocade mat shook gently and swayed.
Xie Dongli watched her every move in his eyes, and the smile on his lips gradually thickened.
He nodded, and his deep voice penetrated into Yingsleeve's heart, warming her internal organs, "Get up." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and made a gesture to help her.
Ying Sleeve knew that he couldn't touch her, so he hurriedly calmed down, and held the brocade to stand up.
But his legs and feet were so sore that he couldn't get up at all.
She didn't know why she had suddenly become delicate......
It was Shen Yule who saw her strange appearance next to him, and hurriedly walked over to help her up, and said with a smile: "Vice Minister Xie's flower crown is really wonderful, I think it's better than Ji Xuan's hairpin." As he spoke, Cai Sang came over with a target mirror and showed it to Yingsleeve.
The beautiful woman in the mirror stares at the autumn water, her eyebrows cross the distant mountains, her lips are full of cherry blossoms, and her body is as bright as the first ray of sunshine in the morning, but all this is no match for the diamond crown on the cloud bun above her head.
The crown was crystal clear, and a small rainbow-colored halo appeared on the top of her hair.
It was the diamond crown that she saw in her mother's seafood shop, Cyclamen, that day, which was unique in the entire Zhongzhou continent......
"The people of Hercy. Call diamonds 'diamonds'. Xie Dongli said with a smile, "I think this diamond crown is the most suitable for you." β
"Not bad, not bad! It's much more beautiful than the golden hairpin, and we have a good sleeve and a salute. It's about being different! Mrs. Zhao, the eldest aunt of the Situ family, said with a busy smile, causing everyone's approval.
This scene also affected many of the little girls who came to watch the ceremony today.
From then on, at the ceremony of the little girl from the Gaomen family of the Eastern Yuan Dynasty, the last one to be put on the top of her head was no longer the hairpin that had been passed down for thousands of years, but this kind of diamond crown that could be worn on the cloud bun like a headband.
But there is no crown. There is a clear and shiny one on the top of the sleeve, without impurities.
Many knowledgeable people say that there is only one crown. It's worth ten cities.
With the sleeves and the ceremony, Emperor Yuan Hong also brought his henchmen to watch the ceremony.
Seeing this scene, he nodded with a smile, and his mood was much better.
Won Jianren's injuries are finally healed. However, his left leg was shortened. Walking with a limp, the mood was originally very unhappy.
still followed the ingenuity of the beauty Lan'er who served him, and made him two pairs of shoes with different soles and heights, so as to make up for his shortcomings in walking.
Seeing Emperor Yuan Hong coming, Yuan Jianren hurriedly got up and came over to salute, "Father." β
The people in the hall also hurriedly turned around and saluted Emperor Yuanhong together, "Your Majesty." β
Emperor Yuan Hong raised his hand. smiled: "I want to see the sleeves and the ceremony." Excuse me. Go ahead! Go on! As he spoke, he beckoned to Ying Sleeve and Xie Dongli from afar. He turned and departed with his attendants.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty!"
Xie Dongli and Shen Dacheng hurriedly followed.
However, Yuan Jianren stepped forward faster than them, grabbed Yuan Hongdi's arm, and walked out with him.
Emperor Yuan Hong didn't push him away, but said lightly: "You came just in time, the new Yuan Wangfu in Xichengfang District has been built, you can go with me to have a look." With that, he took him out of the Yuanwang Mansion in Dongchengfang District.
This mansion is actually the former Situ Mansion, that is, the old mansion of the Xie family, which was bought from the Xie family when Yuan Jianren was still Situ Jianren.
In the end, Yuan Jianren and Emperor Yuan Hong are father and son, Xie Dongli and Shen Dacheng glanced at each other, and did not follow anymore.
Shen Yongjie squinted, her gaze swept over Yuan Jianren's back in disgust, lowered her eyes, and sighed slightly in her heart.
She originally wanted to wait for Yingsleeve to get married before breaking up with Yuan Jianren.
Now, it seems, she can't wait.
If she didn't leave this man, she was worried that she would be even more unbearable in the future, and at that time, maybe she would stab him with a knife......
At the end of the ceremony, the subordinates of the Yuan Wangfu came out to greet everyone to eat and drink.
Yingsleeves hurriedly went back to his noble hall to change clothes.
Xie Dongli thought about it, but still followed.
Yingsleeve came out from behind the screen to change his clothes, and saw Xie Dongli standing in front of the window with his hands behind his back, looking at the scenery in the courtyard outside the window.
"Thank you for your crown today. I love it. With a smile on his face, he walked over with the diamond crown in his hand.
Xie Dongli looked back at her and smiled slightly: "This crown is only worthy of you." β
Yingsleeve put the small crown in the box, and said with emotion: "This thing will only be worn once in your life, and it will really cost you." β
Xie Dongli walked over, took out the crown from the box, and put it on her head.
The two stood in front of a dressing mirror more than one person high, quietly looking at the scene in the mirror.
Xie Dongli stood behind her, looking at the solemn appearance of Yingsleeve wearing a crown, and whispered in her ear: "Look, you look like a queen wearing this crown." β
Yingsleeve couldn't help but blushed again, and said angrily: "You really dare to say it!" - Queen, where am I like a queen? β
"You are the queen as long as you want. - My one-man queen. Xie Dongli looked down at her, his eyes were calm, and his face was calm, as if he was saying "The weather is so nice today".
I have to say that such a serious love story is the most lethal.
Ying Sleeve looked back at him, bit her lip, and said in a low voice: "Vice Minister Xie, you can't say that, I will take it seriously." β
"If you don't tell the truth, didn't I say it in vain?" Xie Dongli looked at her red lips, and couldn't wait to remove the glutinous rice teeth that she was biting her lip on. Swap your lips for yourself.
The two looked at each other quietly in the room.
In the birdcage hanging under the cloister outside the window, the oriole bird chirps gracefully.
White doves whistled across the clear blue sky.
The golden sunlight sprinkled in the courtyard of the Zhigui Hall, and the two Xifu begonias under the porch at the entrance of the upper room were in full bloom. Attract bees and butterflies.
In the flower garden next to the pink wall, two huge famous peonies Yao Huang Wei purple buds are waiting to be released, and only one flower bud is already better than thousands of flowers.
A few little maids who had just left their heads fluttered butterflies in the yard, and the sound of giggling came in, and the two people in the house came back to their senses as if they had woken up from a dream.
ββ¦β¦ Did you go and buy this tiara after you sent me home that day? Sleeves took the crown off his head again. Solemnly put it in the box and lock it, and then put it in the hidden cabinet of his Duobao Pavilion.
Seeing that she valued this and etiquette so much, Xie Dongli was still silent. But my heart has become much happier.
The unhappiness in the restaurant that day disappeared immediately.
Thinking about it again, Xie Dongli was a little frightened.
As long as she pretends to be a little bit of a sigh of resignation, even if he is very dissatisfied with her, he will immediately forget about it.
It's so desperate. It's really not like him......
Xie Dongli coughed lightly. Hide your embarrassment.
But he felt that it was fortunate that Ying Sleeve didn't understand his mind very well, otherwise he would really be more unscrupulous......
"I heard from Your Majesty that the Yuanwang Mansion in Xichengfang District has been built, when will you move?" Xie Dongli changed the subject, not wanting to analyze his feelings.
Yingsleeve sat down, supported his chin with his hand, frowned, and said, "Actually, I really don't want to move, I like it here." β
Especially the bay in the backyard of the noble hall. If she went to Xichengfang District, she would not be able to learn from Master freely......
"Huh. What's good here? But even if you move away, you can come back and stay when you have time. Xie Dongli said insincerely.
He really wanted to get out of here so they could start anew.
Ying Sleeve glanced at him, as if she understood his thoughts, "You don't like it here?" β
"There is no dislike. It's just that you're already married, and you're going to marry me in six months, and you should start a new life. Xie Dongli said meaningfully.
Ying Sleeve smiled slightly, and this time she didn't argue with him.
It turns out that with him in my heart, many words sound different.
If it had been before, she would have accused him of interfering too much and manipulating her life.
Now, she feels that he really cares about her and thinks about her in everything.
The biggest reason why she is nostalgic here is, of course, for the sake of Master.
But Master is such a person who comes and goes without a trace.
Today was her ceremony, and she barely slept last night, wondering if Master would come to see her.
As a result, when it was almost dawn, the master did not come.
Later, she couldn't hold it back, and for the first time took the initiative to go to the hill where the master lived to find him.
But there, the door was closed, and the wood was like it. She climbed over the fence and went in only to see a thick layer of ash inside.
Apparently this place has been uninhabited for a long time.
She stood silently at Master's residence for a long time, sighed, went down the mountain, returned to her room, and began to prepare for today's ceremony.
Unexpectedly, she didn't wait for the master, but waited for Xie Dongli to insert a hairpin for her.
"I understand, but people are not plants and trees, how can they be ruthless? Having lived here for so long, it is impossible not to be nostalgic at all. But now that the new Yuanwang Mansion has been built, it will definitely have to be moved. Let's stay here. Yingsleeve was as good as a stream, and accepted Xie Dongli's proposal.
The two of them chattered a lot in the house, all of which were trivial things, but the two of them actually took the trouble to talk for a long time, and they both felt unfinished.
When Xie Dongli left Yingsleeve's house and sat in his car with satisfaction, he came back to his senses, and was surprised how he was so bored today, he even told her what color should be used for the new curtain of Yingsleeve's boudoir for a long time, and he was simply full!
β¦β¦
Here, Emperor Yuan Hong took Yuan Jianren to inspect the newly built Yuan Wangfu in Xichengfang District, and said: "This palace is a prince's system, you can move over with your family one day." Although your house in Dongchengfang District is good, it is not a prince's mansion, and it is awkward to live in. You are the only prince of the Eastern Yuan Kingdom, Your Royal Highness, you have to be dignified and respectful, and you have to be presentable. It can no longer be the same as when he was a royal merchant before, thinking about one out is one out. β
Yuan Jianren smiled and narrowed his eyes. nodded again and again: "Obey the teachings of my father!" Erchen immediately found someone to move on a good day. β
Emperor Yuan Hong nodded, looked at him again, and then took his attendants to the car. Go to the palace.
Along the way, he heard many people talking about the Qi Palace.
"The two children of the Qi Wangfu are really pitiful...... Princess Qi is just gone, and now even Princess Qi's maiden family is dead, who else really thinks about these two children? β
As the saying goes, seeing an uncle is like seeing a mother, and the foreign family is the support of a child without a mother.
"Yes, the first prince is a poor man. got seriously ill and passed away within two days, leaving behind a pair of posthumous sons. Now His Majesty the Emperor has come out of nowhere, and his own son has come out of nowhere. Of course, the grandson who is separated by a layer is behind. β
"I also heard that His Majesty the Emperor wants to send King Jiajun to Nanzheng Kingdom as a proton. I see, the most pitiful is the king of Jiajun, who was originally the only imperial grandson. but was pulled off the horse. Now he is only the king of the county, one level lower than the prince. β
"That's right, I also heard that Prince Yuan's family is actually not the concubine of Empress Yuan at all, but ...... His Majesty's Jewel Outside the Palace...... Put it on us people, it is the outer room that has taken the position of the son-in-law, and properly spoiled the concubine and killed the wife! β
"Shhhh How can you say that about Your Majesty?! - He also spoiled his concubine and killed his wife! I think you don't have a head! β
The attendants who followed Emperor Yuan Hong's face turned purple. After pulling out the waist knife, he wanted to rush forward and arrest those gossiping.
Emperor Yuan Hong made them retreat with a look.
These people are just gossiping.
If he really wants to make a big move. Arrest these people, but you will be able to sit down on those gossip.
The mouth of the people is more important than the Sichuan.
He has been an emperor for forty or fifty years, and he still understands this truth.
Back in the palace, Prime Minister Shen Dacheng also said to him: "Your Majesty, in the past two days, there have been many rumors in the capital that the Yuan Wangfu is too ruthless, and as soon as they come up, they put on a posture of wanting to seize the throne, and the two children of the Qi Wangfu are lonely, and everyone sympathizes with them." β
Emperor Yuan Hong sighed and nodded, "I also know that it can't be too much. β
Originally, he had a good plan, he wanted to send Yuan Yingjia to Nan Zhengguo as a proton, so as to dispel the ambitions of the queen's faction.
Who knew that the other side refused to give up at all, and put on a posture of a dead fish and a broken net, and he had to restrain himself.
And the Northern Qi Kingdom has not yet come forward.
If the Northern Qi Kingdom really intervened, he would be even more passive.
Thinking of this, Emperor Yuan Hong felt that he was much older, and his back was a lot stiffer, so he frowned and said, "Just change someone else." β
Prime Minister Shen Dacheng had no choice but to nod and sigh softly in his heart, but he didn't stop it.
The conversation between Emperor Yuan Hong and Prime Minister Shen Dacheng quickly reached Shen Yongjie's ears.
She sneered in her heart, knowing the calculations of Emperor Yuan Hong and Prime Minister Shen Dacheng.
But she won't be "dedicated" to them anymore.
A few days after the Ying Sleeves and the ceremony, the day of the funeral of Princess Qi in the Qi Palace's Mansion is approaching.
Yuan Yingjia and Yuan Yinglan made a special trip to Yuan Wangfu to send a post and invited them to attend.
According to the rules, Shen Yongjie and Princess Qi are concubines, and they should go to her funeral.
But Shen Yongjie really didn't want to mix with these people anymore.
She called Ying Sleeve over and said apologetically to her: "Sleeve Sleeve, my mother can't stand you, and I'm going to break my promise." β
"What's wrong? Mother? Yingsleeve was startled, and hurriedly sat down next to Shen Yongjie, carefully examining Shen Yongjie's face, trying to see some clues from her expression.
Shen Yongjie didn't let her guess, and said straightforwardly: "My mother said before that I would wait for you to get married and then divorce from your father, but my mother couldn't wait." If you don't get together sooner, I'm worried that even your brother won't be able to keep it......"
Yingsleeve was even more surprised, and hurriedly said: "Mother, you don't have to worry about me, as long as you are good to you, good to your brother, you can do whatever you want!" But on second thought, isn't she instigating her mother and father to divorce when she says this? Suddenly blushed, and said helplessly: "...... That's not what I meant......"
Shen Yongjie smiled and stroked her soft cheeks, "Mother knows, mother understands." As long as the sleeves understand the mother's mind. After a pause, he whispered to her: "No matter what happens in the future, don't worry." Mother won't want you and Xiaolei. β
Yingsleeve clenched his fist, "Mother, you have something to help, just say it!" β
Since Shen Yongjie told her the truth about her "illness" in the past ten years, Ying Sleeve knew that her father was not worthy of being with someone like her mother.
Shen Yongjie smiled, "You can just watch the play quietly." β
