Chapter 380: The Decree of Marriage

When she left Tang Dusk, the queen mother cautiously told her about the Blood Dragon Guard, for so many years, she has not given up looking for the traces of the Blood Dragon Guard, and finally got the news about Yunhe, Shaoyang went to explore for a few months, but did not find any clues. At the beginning, she knew that the queen mother did not completely hand over the news of the blood dragon guard to her, and fifty years later, Tang Dui came to a princess Xiao Yang who was very much like the queen mother, and she knew that maybe the real key thing was on this Xiao Yang's body.

Lan Zhi looked puzzled and shocked and said, "Empress Dowager, do you mean that Princess Xiaoyang has news of that?" ”

has been by the Empress Dowager's side for decades, and the Empress Dowager will not avoid her when doing things, she knows that the Empress Dowager is bound to win that thing, but she has been suffering for decades without a trace.

"Shhhh Can't say. The Empress Dowager touched her lips with her fingers and motioned for Lan Zhi not to speak.

On the morning of the second day, Zhongshu Ling entered the palace early to present the original draft of the holy decree, and yesterday in the yamen and his colleagues fought at night to draw up two holy decrees, only hoping to pass the emperor's pass.

Leng Yang swept the holy decree with a glance and ten lines, there was nothing wrong with it, and he announced at that time that he would let the Ministry of Rites Shangshu go to announce the decree, and he still remembered in his heart that the Ministry of Rites Shangshu dropped the chain in the court yesterday, so find something to do for him, maybe Princess Xiaoyang will be able to cure his pig brain.

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu took the emperor's order all the way, looking at the smiles of his colleagues around him, the more he looked at it, the more he felt like he was gloating, this errand fell on his head, didn't it mean his life?

After thinking about it, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites decided to go to the Xinyang Hou Mansion first, he was afraid of Princess Xiaoyang, but he would not be afraid of the Xinyang Hou Mansion, yes, that's it, go to the Xinyang Hou Mansion first, just to strengthen his courage first, after all, the Xinyang Hou Mansion is much better than the Qingyue Platform.

When the Xinyang Hou family heard that the holy decree had arrived, they hurriedly burned incense and changed clothes, the last time their Hou Mansion received the holy decree was when the emperor gave marriage, Yan Xiang heard the word holy decree, his cheeks were slightly red, and he already had the answer in his heart, the opportunity for their Hou Mansion to contact the holy decree was only her relatives, this time the marriage date must have been chosen, she was about to marry into the royal family and become Prince Mu, and none of the sisters in the family could compare to her.

"Master Hou, I really made this official wait." The Ministry of Rites Shangshu, who was left out in the main hall for a long time, sneered and said that he had been an official for many years, and he had never seen such a person as the Xinyang Hou Mansion who did not give face to the Xuanzhi Qin.

Hearing that his own people were being sneered at, thinking that he was the justifiable Prince Mu after this holy decree was read, he was even ignored by a second-grade official, and he had a seizure on the spot: "Lord Qincha, who gave you the courage to be disrespectful to Miss Ben, Miss Ben is the justifiable Prince Mu Princess, have you blinded your dog's eyes?" ”

"Poof" laughed out loud, looking at the family who was daydreaming, he couldn't hold back a smile: "The Marquis of Xinyang received the order, carried it by the sky, and the emperor said: There is a woman in the Marquis of Xinyang's mansion who has lost her virtue and reputation. As a royal nobleman, Prince Mu has a noble status, and the daughter of the Yan family is really unworthy of the position of Prince Mu's concubine. Remembering that the previous marriage was given by my relatives, Jun had no jokes, and gave Yan's daughter Yan Xiang as Prince Mu's side concubine, and got married on the same day. ”

Side concubine? How could it not be the holy decree announcing the marriage date, Yan Xiang looked at the dazzling ridicule of the Ministry of Rites, and rushed up to grab the official uniform of the Ministry of Rites with a hideous face: "It's you, it's you, it's you who tampered with my holy decree, Miss Ben is the princess, the princess given by His Majesty, you wait to die, the emperor will punish you." ”

Master Zhang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, shook off Yan Xiang in disgust and said disdainfully: "Miss Yan, the emperor has granted you the position of a side concubine for your pitiful sake, and with your ugly appearance, you still want to be the concubine of Prince Mu, in the next life." Where did you get so much nonsense, the official still has to go to Qingyuetai to announce the decree, if you delay the official's business, you can't afford to be responsible. ”

Qingyuetai, Qingyuetai, there is always Qingyuetai when you are most embarrassed. Declare the decree, why do you want to go to Qingyuetai to announce the decree, is it ...... Could it be that she is the new Princess Mu? No way, how is this possible!

"Seeing that you are still smart, this official will give you a reminder, Princess Xiaoyang of Qingyuetai is the concubine of Prince Mu, and the emperor said that Princess Xiaoyang's golden branches and jade leaves are a match made in heaven with Prince Mu. Concubine Yan, I heard that you don't get along with Princess Xiaoyang, and now you will have to live under the same roof in a short time, I heard that Princess Xiaoyang is the most vindictive, Concubine Yan still has a good idea to please Princess Xiaoyang as a concubine. Looking at Yan Xiang's miserable white mottled face, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu disdained sarcasm.

It's just the side concubine of Prince Mu's mansion, she really thinks she is a big man, and she dares to slander herself for tampering with the holy decree, the dog can't spit out ivory in her mouth, and she is a smart person, no wonder she is rejected by others, wait and see, when she enters Prince Mu's mansion, she has her good fruit to eat, Princess Xiaoyang will never repay her grievances with virtue, and those who have offended Princess Xiaoyang basically have no good end, and even the concubine in the palace who once favored the sixth palace also ended up falling out of favor.

The people of the Xinyang Marquis Mansion did not expect that it would be such a result, the marriage of the original glorious lintel became a joke, and the wedding date did not wait until the holy decree of the side concubine, what made Yan Xiang jealous and crazy the most was that the person who was the enemy of her everywhere in Qingyuetai would come to her head, even if she married into the palace, she would be subject to her everywhere in the future, and the side concubine would be a concubine after all.

Leaving the Xinyang Marquis Mansion, Shangshu stepped into the Qingyue platform with anxiety in his heart, and when he thought that he would soon read the holy decree in front of Princess Xiaoyang, his legs and stomach began to tremble, his heart beat faster, his head was dizzy, his steps were weak, and he felt that his hands and feet were not his own.

"Yo, it turned out that Lord Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites visited, this princess Qingyue Platform is a quiet place, Lord Shangshu will not come to enjoy the snow scene of Qingyue Platform uninvited." Seeing that the person who came was the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, the two had a few encounters, Xiao Yang quipped.

Since she moved into Qingyuetai, but there has been no courtier visit, Qiao Xiang is not a courtier, can only be regarded as a child of the family, the only time is her and the ceremony last year, there is the eldest princess of Shaoyang officiating the ceremony, those ladies in Handu who claim to be noble will naturally bring their husbands to watch the ceremony, and at that time some courtiers came.

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu kept swallowing his saliva nervously, and said respectfully: "Weichen is here to announce the decree, the emperor has forgotten to sleep and eat, racked his brains, and exhausted his efforts for Princess Xiaoyang's family affairs, and finally selected the most suitable husband for Princess Xiaoyang yesterday." ”

"Read it," Xiao Yang looked at the Ministry of Rites with an expressionless face.

"Huh? Read what? ”

"Lord Shangshu, haven't you forgotten why you came to my Qingyue platform? Since it is a reading of the holy decree, saying what those who have not done it, delaying time, this princess has not slept enough for beauty sleep today, why did she choose such a person as you? Xiao Yang pursed his lips in disgust and looked at the Ministry of Rites like a fool.

Although this time it may be the happiest news for herself, Xiao Yang still makes an impatient look, everyone knows that she acts rashly, if she seems to pay attention to it, it will cause Leng Yang's suspicion.

"Princess Xiaoyang received the order, and the emperor was sent by Fengtian and said: Princess Xiaoyang in the Tang Dynasty has both ability and political integrity, naΓ―ve and reckless, and noble status, and is deeply loved by the Queen Mother. After reading the holy decree in a trembling voice, the priest didn't dare to look at Princess Xiaoyang's face anymore, and stuffed the holy decree into Princess Xiaoyang's hand and ran away.

Knowing Princess Xiaoyang's temperament, he didn't dare to stay and watch the fire from the other side, he thought about it when he came, and when he finished reading the holy decree, he took advantage of Princess Xiaoyang's momentary stunned opportunity to turn around and run, the probability of this must be very high.

Xiao Yang, who was stuffed with a handful of holy decrees, rushed all the way into the palace.

When Leng Yang in the apse of Qiankun Hall heard the news that Princess Xiao Yang had entered the palace, Xiao Yang had already entered the apse, Chunhua Qiuyue's face was covered with frost, and a pair of clear eyes were shining with cold light, and he asked menacingly: "Your Majesty, why do you want to marry me and Prince Mu, he is a person with a marriage contract, and this princess is not a concubine." ”

A yin owl flashed in the depths of Leng Yang's eyes, but no one noticed the change in his eyes, as if he was looking at a junior's persuasion: "Xiao Yang, Yan Xiang's reputation is not good, how can he be worthy of Prince Mu, I have carefully found that you are the only one who can be worthy of Prince Mu in the whole of Han, you can rest assured, you are the princess of the golden branches and jade leaves, how can I make you a concubine?" I have decreed that Yan Xiang will be the side concubine, and you are the rightful concubine. ”

"What? She turned out to be a side concubine? No, this princess said in the Qiankun Palace before that she would not serve a husband with others, if she gets married, isn't it just a slap in the face? Xiao Yang pursed his lips and refused.

She is not so easy to be fooled, although her heart is as sweet as drinking honey, but she must act decently, otherwise she will be suspected by Leng Yang, and it will be worth the loss.

"It's okay, no one dares to look at your jokes, I know that the time in the Qiankun Palace you were angry because of the prince's nonsense, so you didn't choose to say nonsense. When you marry into the palace, you are a righteous princess, and Yan Xiang is just a side concubine who can't be on the stage, whether it is a side concubine or a concubine, they are all concubines. What's more, people who make things difficult for themselves should be stared at in front of their eyes. In order to comfort Xiao Yang, Leng Yang did not use it.

Xiao Yang, who heard these words, was a little moved, and asked cautiously: "This princess and Prince Mu also have a grudge, if this princess marries Prince Mu, if this princess has a conflict with Prince Mu, will the emperor stand on the side of this princess?" ”

Seeing that Leng Dui's tone was loose, Leng Yang hurriedly agreed: "Don't worry, I must be on your side." So, did you agree to this marriage? ”

Xiao Yang nodded lightly and made a request: "But I'm going to see the Empress Dowager later, I heard that the Empress Dowager loves Prince Mu the most, and this princess thinks that she has to go and give the Empress Dowager a wake-up call." ”
