Early in the morning, the palace of Lanling County will be lit up, the whole house is busy together, the sound of firecrackers keeps remembering, and the family of the palace sends sugar cakes to every household in Guiyifang, this is the custom of marrying, seeing sugar cakes, every household in Guiyifang knows, the palace of Lanling County is going to marry, and the news spreads quickly, it is the grandson of the old prince, Huangfu Wujin, will marry the eldest granddaughter of the prince of the country, the priest Su Xun.

This news spread quickly to the whole city like wings, and for a while, this marriage became the focus of many people's attention, and ordinary people care about the appearance of men and women, what is the status of men, and what is the appearance of women? How much is the gift and how much is the dowry?

Many people believe that the Liang family is biased towards the army, and the civil power is weak, while the Su family is a famous family, with countless protégés and deep connections in the civil service, which will be of great benefit to the Liang Wang family, and the marriage between the Su family and the royal family will also be of great benefit to the consolidation of the Su family's status.

But some people thought of a more subtle point, that is, Su Xun's second son Su Hanzhen is the prince's confidant, then the Liang Wang family and the Su family married this time, what is the relationship between the Liang Wang family and the prince, the conjecture caused by a marriage has far exceeded the marriage itself.

Early in the morning, Queen Shen came to Shui Yao Palace, which is the bedroom of her niece Shen Ruyi, if the promotion of Wujin can be called a god speed, then Shen Ruyi's promotion is jaw-dropping, she just entered the palace is a talented person, but less than two months, and now she has been canonized as a concubine, the seven concubines of the harem, Yuan, Gui, Shu, De, Xian, Hui, Jin, she has ranked third, which makes Queen Shen jealous.

At this time, she was five months pregnant, and her lower abdomen was already slightly bulging, but her skirt was cleverly concealed, and she couldn't see it very clearly.

And the emperor has not come to her dormitory for almost a month, almost all of them have spent the night at Shen Ruyi's place, which makes Empress Shen's heart extremely lost, although Uncle Shen's plan has been successfully realized, the favor of the Shen family is still the same, but Empress Shen is in danger of falling out of favor.

Empress Shen's heart is not just jealous of Shen Ruyi, she has begun to be hostile, especially the last palace test of the flower, Empress Shen has persuaded the emperor to point her nephew Shen Qiwu as a flower, but Shen Ruyi said that the emperor is not suitable to enter the top three, won the praise of the righteous and clear, it is this incident that makes Empress Shen's heart begin to be vigilant, she realizes that her niece will step on her to climb up, it is likely that a few years later, Queen Daning is still Queen Shen, but it is no longer her.

Empress Shen really didn't want to come to Shuiyao Palace today, but she had to come, she got the news that today was the marriage of Huangfu Wujin, the grandson of the king of Lanling County, and she wanted to attend this wedding as the queen.

Of course, she is not interested in Huangfu Wujin, her target is the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother will attend the wedding as a witness today, she wants to take this opportunity to get close to the Queen Mother, this is a means for her to keep the status of the queen, back then, it was her flattery to the Queen Mother, so that the Queen Mother finally expressed support when she was canonized as the queen, and the emperor resolutely made her the queen in a voice of opposition.

Empress Shen knew better than anyone the status of the Empress Dowager in the emperor's heart, and she was the only person in the world who could change the emperor's decision.

When Empress Shen came to the gate of Shuiyao Palace, she happened to see the emperor's personal old eunuch Ma Yuanzhen hurriedly walking out of the palace.

Ma Yuanzhen is the emperor's most trusted confidant, as early as when the emperor was a young prince, Ma Yuanzhen played with him and served him for decades, especially Ma Yuanzhen also read books and could read and write, and sometimes helped him review the folds, and this Ma Yuanzhen was still the only eunuch who could serve beside the emperor's bed.

In Empress Shen's memory, on the first night she entered the palace, this Ma Yuanzhen served beside the bed, which shows the emperor's trust in him.

Empress Shen hurriedly greeted her and shouted, "Manager Ma! ”

Ma Yuanzhen is well maintained, he looks young, in fact, he is already an old man in his sixties and seventies, he saw that it was the queen, he quickly stopped, stepped forward and bowed and smiled: "Say hello to the queen!" ”

Empress Shen didn't dare to put up a stand with Ma Yuanzhen, she smiled slightly and asked, "Where is Mr. Ma going?" ”

Ma Yuanzhen smiled helplessly and said: "I'll go to the palace of Lanling County to take a look, where is the queen mother today, the emperor is not at ease, let me take care of the queen mother, the queen mother is really, at such an old age, she still has to worry about her grandchildren." ”

"So that's the case, in fact, I also want to go to the wedding of the Lanling County Palace, Manager Ma, do you think the emperor will allow me to go?"

Ma Yuanzhen looked at both sides, and then whispered: "Niangniang, maybe the emperor will also go to the wedding today, although he didn't say it, but I feel that he has this intention." ”

"That's best, I'll go with the emperor."

At this time, Ma Yuanzhen showed an embarrassed expression on his face, and he said in a hurry: "Niangniang, your body is inconvenient, according to the old slave, just recuperate in the palace, don't go." ”

"Why?"

Empress Shen's mind turned, she suddenly understood, and asked with a gloomy face: "Does the emperor want to take Ruyi with him?" ”

Ma Yuanzhen couldn't hide it, so he had to smile bitterly: "The emperor is actually worried about Niangniang's body..."

"Don't say it!"

Empress Shen was immediately furious, "That slut, I am the queen, who does she think she is?" ”

Empress Shen was almost mad, it should be the queen who accompanied the emperor to attend the minister's wedding, Shen Ruyi actually wanted to go beyond the throne, and it had only been two months since she entered the palace, and she wanted to take her place, which was simply too much.

"No, I'll go to the emperor."

She was furious, so she rushed to the palace, and Ma Yuanzhen hurriedly persuaded her, "Niangniang, you will anger the emperor, and it will be even more detrimental to you!" ”

Empress Shen was like being poured down by a basin of ice water, her body froze, slowly she lowered her head, tears of humiliation welled up from her eyes, she nodded, "Manager Ma, you are right, I should take care of the child in my belly, I am not angry." ”

Ma Yuanzhen is also very sympathetic to her in his heart, he has always followed the emperor and has the most right to speak, in fact, in terms of talent and appearance, Queen Shen is stronger than Shen Ruyi, but her means in bed are far behind, Shen Ruyi can make the emperor three times in one night, and those tricks that Shen Ruyi plays in bed, Queen Shen can't dream of it.

But he couldn't say these words, he saw that there was no one around, so he whispered: "Don't worry about the queen, the mother is expensive by the son, and the concubine can't replace you." ”

Empress Shen sighed softly, "Manager Ma, thank you, I understand in my heart." ”

She turned around and walked towards her bedroom, Ma Yuanzhen looked at her back and shook her head gently, her aunt and niece compete for favor, how can you say this kind of thing?

．．．．．．．．．． Today is September 20, which is the auspicious day of marriage, and the day after tomorrow, September 22, it will be the son of Wujin Meihuawei who left the capital.

After experiencing the five ceremonies of Nacai, asking for names, Najib, Nazheng, and inviting the date, today ushered in the last of the six ceremonies.

Early in the morning, the Lanling County Mansion was busy, the wedding hall was set in the main hall of the palace, which is a building that can accommodate more than 3,000 people, because the witness is the queen mother, plus Wu Jin is a descendant of the royal family, the palace specially sent 800 eunuchs and palace maids to help hold the wedding.

This gave great help to the understaffed Lanling County Palace, not only that, but the Daning Emperor Huangfu Xuande also specially approved the plum blossom guards under the Wujin to maintain order, so from the morning, the vicinity of the Lanling County Palace was filled with more than 1,000 plum blossom guards, hundreds of whom will also escort the welcoming team.

The main hall of the palace has been arranged to be extremely festive, a huge 'Xi' word hung in the red silk ribbon, more than 300 banquet tables are placed in the lobby, a team of palace maids are busy serving melons and fruits and wine, all the wine and food are provided by Guanglu Temple, this time the queen mother has made a big deal, all the expenses are borne by her, in order to prepare for the wedding, she almost took out her own two percent of her savings, just to the Su family's welcome gifts, all kinds of treasures are worth nearly 100,000 taels of silver.

In the words of the Queen Mother, it was to repay the favor of King Liang back then, and the King of Lanling County was not polite and accepted the Queen Mother's wishes, in fact, he knew better than anyone else that the Queen Mother poured all her thoughts about her son Prince Tianfeng into her grandson Wujin, which was actually the Queen Mother marrying her granddaughter-in-law.

Huang Fujiang slowly inspected the banquet in the hall with the support of his granddaughter Baozhu, and there will be thousands of guests coming to attend the wedding today, unlike the birthday banquet held by the Qi family, the guests who came to attend the wedding were officials and nobles from the third grade or above, and a total of three hundred and twenty invitations were issued, and each family was invited to three people.

Although Wujin is not Huangfujiang's own grandson, Huangfujiang has regarded him as his grandson in his heart, and he is just as happy as his grandson when his grandson gets married today.

Huangfu Jiang sat down on a chair and said to Baozhu who was following him: "You don't have to follow me, I'll take a rest here, you go to see Wujin, have you cleaned up, the time to welcome your relatives is coming, remind him." ”

"Okay, I'll go."

Baozhu was about to leave, but Huang Fujiang remembered something again, and hurriedly stopped her, "By the way, do you have any news from Chen Ying's brother and sister?" ”

Baozhu nodded, "Chen Ying brought me a letter from the Tiantuo Manor before yesterday, saying that she had been away from home for too long and wanted to go home to visit her grandfather and father, so she planned to go back, and several of her brothers also accompanied her back, and I asked someone to inquire about the news yesterday, saying that they had left." ”

Speaking of this, she couldn't help but sigh softly, she knew why Chen Ying went back, it must have been the news of Wujin's marriage that hurt her heart, but what could she do? Wu Jin likes Su Han, and although Baozhu sympathizes with Chen Ying, if Wu Jin marries Chen Ying, Su Han will be sad.

There is no one right or wrong in this kind of thing, it is good to have a lover who will eventually become a family, in fact, if Wujin becomes the prince, Chen Ying is actually not bad as a partial concubine.

Baozhu was thinking nonsense, and Huangfu Jiang urged her with a smile: "What are you thinking, don't go soon, the time to welcome your relatives is coming." ”
