193: Joyful marriage
This year, after the peaceful end, after the Lantern Festival, the emperor issued a holy decree, crowning the imperial concubine as the queen, Concubine Mei as the imperial concubine, Concubine An as the concubine, and the others as normal.
Immediately, Mu Huanyan noticed the difference.
The emperor pushed the imperial concubine to the position of the queen and pushed it to the cusp, there must be his purpose, he is still trying his best to protect the concubine who has not been favored, the emperor is really very affectionate, and he is so careful about the concubine.
The queen was crowned at the ceremony, and Mu Huanyan was also invited.
After the cumbersome etiquette is over, it is the ministers who rejoice together, and the imperial concubine has been dressed in a phoenix robe at this moment, and the excitement that cannot be concealed in her eyes is revealed.
Chu Yiyue endured the resentment in her heart and said to Ling Ran: "Prince, the emperor has set up a queen with a prince under his knees, where you are really incredible. ”
And Ling Ran, thinking at the moment, no wonder the emperor was becoming more and more fond of Ling Mo, and originally planned to help him ascend to the throne! Mu Huanyan has been helping me behind me, asking me to be more wary of Ling Mo, which is really prescient.
As soon as the dance at the banquet was removed, the emperor smiled and said, "Where is the county lord of Heyue?" ”
Mu Huanyan heard the emperor call her, and felt bad in her heart, so she slowly walked to the front and bowed to the emperor and the queen, "Courtiers see the emperor, queen, congratulations to the queen!" ”
"Let's be flat."
Mu Huanyan stood there, her head kept down, how could she look up at Shengyan on this occasion?
Ling Ran's gaze fell on her, Chu Yiyue would inevitably be jealous and uncomfortable, but she still held it back, not wanting to have any more trouble with Ling Ran because of this matter.
"Last year, I had something important to talk to you about, but you suddenly went to Heyue County, and I also received a report from Master Li Mao, and you have made a great contribution to Heyue County."
"Emperor Xie praised him, and the courtiers just did what they had to do." Mu Huanyan replied humbly.
The emperor continued: "Since you have come back, I still have to continue to deal with the previous matter, at that time, it happened that Concubine Mei and the queen came to marry you for their sons, that is, the second prince and the third prince, you are so good, my two sons like you, I am not surprised, but I have a problem, two sons like you, but you have only one, I really don't know how to divide it, county lord, what do you think?" ”
The emperor is going to hand over this thorny issue to Mu Huanyan again, and delaying is really not a long-term solution. Mu Huanyan stood there and was silent for a while, she hadn't thought about this question, but the ending was not what she wanted.
Suddenly, her hand was held by a warm hand, and when she looked sideways, it turned out to be Xiao Xuan.
He stood in the middle of the crowd like that, ignoring a single qiē, took her hand, and looked at her tenderly, as if at this time, there were only two of them in this place.
Mu Huanyan did not retract her hand, at this time, she needed Xiao Xuan.
At this time, Ling Mo also walked out of the crowd and grabbed Mu Huanyan's other hand, and the spectacular scene of two men fighting for one woman immediately appeared in front of everyone.
Ling Ran's heart tightened, looking at this, his brows furrowed tightly, Chu Yiyue hurriedly stretched out his hand and pressed Ling Ran under the table, for fear that he would make other moves.
Ling Mo and Xiao Xuan held Mu Huanyan's hand and froze there.
Some of the courtiers sitting at the banquet were whispering, but they still didn't dare to say too much, after all, the emperor was still there.
"Let her go!" Xiao Xuan looked up at Ling Mo.
Ling Mo pulled Mu Huanyan to his side with all his might, glared at Xiao Xuan and said, "You let go of her!" ”
Xiao Xuan was very unconvinced, and pulled Mu Huanyan to his side, and the two of them began to pull Mu Huanyan like a tug-of-war, Mu Huanyan was very angry and wanted to break free from their hands, but they held it tightly.
"Stop, what do you look like!" The emperor roared angrily.
The queen said: "Your Majesty, the concubines see that the three princes like the county lord very much, so it is better to fulfill them." ”
"What about the second prince? The third prince is my son, isn't the second prince? After saying this, the emperor looked at the three people standing below and said slowly: "Lord Heyue, it's time for you to make a decision." ”
Everyone thought that Mu Huanyan would choose the third prince, because the third prince's mother, the imperial concubine, had just been crowned queen, and the second prince was just a weak and sick prince who did not have any power, and his mother Concubine Mei was also in-depth and simple, and there was no way to compete with the third prince.
Everyone's eyes were all locked on Mu Huanyan's body, wanting to see which prince this man of the year was fancy. Mu Yaotian sat below, and he really sweated in his heart. Fortunately, the prince is married, otherwise today's situation will be even more tense.
Choosing Ling Mo, it is absolutely impossible, Xiao Xuan, who chooses, may be able to talk about the conditions, he will definitely be willing to listen to her when he remembered that he saved him at the beginning.
Mu Huanyan thought about it again and again, slowly walked up to Xiao Xuan, smiled slightly, and said to the emperor: "The person chosen by the courtiers is the second prince. ”
Xiao Xuan exclaimed, immediately hugged Mu Huanyan, and turned in a circle, Mu Huanyan's legs left the ground, feeling like he was flying.
"Put me down, so many." Mu Huanyan's order, Xiao Xuan had no reason to obey, so he stopped what he was doing and helped her stand firm.
Ling Mo's joints creaked as he gripped them, and no matter what he did, Mu Huanyan still refused to look at him more.
The dust settled, Mu Huanyan chose the second prince, the queen sat by the emperor's side, secretly happy in her heart, she still didn't plan to let Ling Mo marry Mu Huanyan, the reason why she went to ask the emperor for help before, was just because she felt that what Ling Mo said made sense, his request to marry Mu Huanyan was equivalent to cutting off his future, which was more conducive to her sitting on the throne of the queen, and now she has become the queen, as for who Mu Huanyan marries, it has nothing to do with her. However, Mu Huanyan is willing to choose the second prince, and he is a little self-aware, a coffin boy, a sick ghost, and he died early and lived early.
In fact, the emperor also thought that Mu Huanyan would choose the third prince, but he never thought that she would choose a second prince without any foundation, and she was really a smart girl.
"Since the county lord himself chose the second prince, I have no objections, this matter is so booked, the prince has already married, and it is time for the second prince to get married, and I will let the internal affairs government choose an auspicious day to hold the wedding."
Xiao Xuan admired it like crazy, Huan Yan was going to become his wife like this, although she only said that she chose the second prince, and did not say that she liked the second prince, but as long as she could marry her, it was enough, and he still had a long life to use to melt her heart.
Although Ling Mo was a little angry, he didn't have a seizure, Mu Huanyan felt a little surprised, but the matter had come to this point, and he had no chance to change if he wanted to, because she was unwilling to marry him from beginning to end.
The third prince didn't get Mu Huanyan, so the emperor comforted him: "Third prince, we have a lot of famous daughters in the country, I will let your mother worry more, and your life's affairs should be handled as soon as possible." ”
"Thank you, Father."
Ling Mo retreated lonely, and then, Mu Huanyan and Xiao Xuan also retreated. After the banquet, Mu Huanyan and Mu Yaotian returned home together. On the way, Mu Yaotian almost opened his mouth to ask Mu Huanyan, but in the end he held back.
Mu Huanyan didn't want to explain anything, and didn't say a few words to Mu Yaotian along the way.
It didn't take long for the holy decree of marriage to reach Mufu, Huang knew that Mu Huanyan chose Xiao Xuan, and she was very happy, at first she felt that a man who was willing to die for Huanyan must be a man who could give her lifelong happiness.
"I used to be worried about your marriage, but now that the marriage has been settled, I can't bear it anymore."
Mu Huanyan leaned on Huang's shoulder and said with a smile: "This is the common problem of every mother in the world. ”
"Huan Yan, this time, have you really thought it through? Although I think the second prince is good, this is a lifelong event after all, and I hope you can consider it carefully. ”
"Well, the second prince is very good to me."
After staying with the Huang family for a while, Mu Huanyan returned to Xingju, but was stopped by Lin Zhang halfway.
"Cousin, what are you?" Mu Huanyan looked at Lin Zhang's expression very strangely, and didn't understand what he meant.
"Do you really have a crush on the second prince?"
Mu Huanyan smiled lightly, "It turns out that my cousin is here to congratulate me." ”
"Let me ask you really like the second prince? He has been weak and sick since he was a child, and his life is short, you choose him, and your future ......"
"If you're here to slander my future husband, then please don't say it again." Mu Huanyan replied to him angrily, she didn't understand, how could Lin Zhang be so dissatisfied with the fact that she had taken a fancy to the second prince, who did she choose to hinder him?
"You're so stubborn."
"If my cousin is fine, I'll go back to the room first."
Lin Zhang looked at her figure and just shook his head.
This news has already spread all over the city, and after Mrs. Chen found out, she thought to herself, it turns out that people don't look down on Yang Gongzi as having a high branch.
Mu Huanyan returned to the courtyard, and Mu Yunsheng and Chen Xue were sitting in the hall waiting for her. As soon as he saw her come back, Mu Yunsheng rushed up and asked anxiously, "Eldest sister, do you really want to marry the second prince?" ”
"That's right, the emperor's decree has been issued."
Mu Yunsheng pursed her mouth, why didn't the eldest sister choose the third prince, the third prince loved her so much.
Chen Xue smiled, "In the end, the person who is most related to you is the second prince after all, eldest lady, I bless you." Mu Huanyan didn't understand Chen Xue Xiao Xuan's feelings, but Xiao Xuan didn't care about her, and he couldn't be happy.
And Huan Yan chose Xiao Xuan, why didn't she use him as a shield, but she couldn't tell others, she could only bury it in her heart, and only sat down for a while, the eldest princess hurriedly came to Lanxingju, looking at Mu Huanyan's eyes with suspicion, Huan Yan probably guessed why the eldest princess was here.
