Chapter 231: The Great Wedding (I)

After leaving the Ganlu Palace, Ji Qingchen, who was in a good mood, took Shu'er to Concubine De's Qianqiu Palace.

Concubine De had long known that Dao Ji Qingchen had returned to King's Landing, so she had been waiting for him in the Qianqiu Palace, because she was afraid that her son would be severely punished by Emperor Yan for what he did. However, when she Ji Qingchen and Shu'er appeared in the Qianqiu Palace, she was stunned at first, and then a faint smile appeared on her face.

This smile is both gratifying and satisfying.

Because the moment she saw her son, she knew that her son was not punished this time, at least now he was safe, which Concubine De saw from Ji Qingchen's face, this is Concubine De's self-confidence, because only she, a mother, will understand her son like this.

At the same time, when she saw Shu'er beside Ji Qingchen, she thought that this must be the princess that her son brought back from leaving the country, and she was the woman that her son had thought about for thousands of years, and she was very happy.

Because her son Ji Qingchen can finally marry a wife, and her daughter-in-law is still a princess who has left the country, and she is such a beautiful woman, how can she not be happy?

Moreover, Concubine De had already heard some past events between Ji Qingchen and Shu'er from Ye Qingchen, and it was very clear that these two people grew up together as childhood sweethearts, and the love between the two was extraordinary, because thinking that these two hard-working children could come together now, as a mother, she was naturally very pleased.

And Shu'er had already heard some things about Concubine De Ye Qingzhi from Ji Qingchen, and she was not stage frightened when she saw Concubine De this time, and behaved very generously and decently, which made Concubine De have a lot of good feelings towards her.

In this way, as soon as Shu'er and Concubine De met, Concubine De fell in love with Shu'er.

Therefore, when Shu'er finished giving gifts and began to chat with Concubine De, the two chatted more and more happily, and they talked happily with each other.

And Ji Qingchen sat on the side, quietly listening to Shu'er chatting with Concubine De, he was in a very comfortable mood, and at the same time he also liked such a peaceful day.

And just like that, it didn't take long for the evening to arrive.

When Concubine De saw that it was getting late, she instructed the maid to prepare the meal, and Ji Qingchen and Shu'er stayed with her to eat. During the banquet, Ji Qingchen made it clear to Concubine De that she had asked Emperor Yan to ask for a decree, and asked Emperor Yan to marry her and told Concubine De once, Concubine De heard that Emperor Yan had agreed to Ji Qingchen's request, and also asked Pei Wenju to host it, so that the Ministry of Rites and Zongzheng Temple could participate in it, she knew that the scale of this wedding must be very large, and she was even happier for her son.

And the mother and son finished dinner together and in a friendly manner, Ji Qingchen, who was in a good mood, took Shu'er to say goodbye to Concubine De and left the Qianqiu Palace and returned to his Northern Liao Palace.

Because there has always been Zhang Rang in the palace, as well as Guo Quan's brothers and sisters and a group of secret guards, the palace did not look cold and lifeless because Ji Qingchen did not live all year round.

And when Ji Qingchen and Shu'er arrived at the palace, Guo Quan, who had already gone out with Zhang Rang to greet him.

After the two of them and everyone in the palace immediately asked Ji Qingchen and Shu'er to say goodbye, Zhang Rang asked the palace maid to arrange Shu'er on the Chunming Tower of the palace.

When Zhang Rang visited Ji Qingchen in the royal court, he was told by Ji Qingchen to prepare a courtyard for Shu'er after returning to the palace, and Zhang Rang returned to King's Landing City and began to operate, and now he happened to build a Chunming Tower required by Ji Qingchen in the palace, so that Shu'er lived in the Chunming Building as soon as he arrived in the palace.

As for Ji Qingchen, he chatted with Zhang Rang and Guo Quan for a long time in the study that night.

The content of the conversation is very complicated, and there is a little more content about the dark guard, and there is Tang Yifu and his Huitong Bank.

Regarding the dark guard, in fact, it is more about the achievements made by Guo Quan and Zhang Rang this year, as well as the current development of the dark guard, and at the same time, Guo Quan and Zhang Rang asked Ji Qingchen for instructions, the current situation in King's Landing is so complicated, how should the dark guard deal with it.

Regarding Tang Yifu and Huitong Bank, according to Zhang Rang, Tang Yifu is indeed talented, and through these two short years, the current Huitong Bank is already able to compete with Wei's Bank. Moreover, Huitong Bank is not only involved in the storage and lending of money, but also involved in restaurants, bookstores and commercial banks, etc., and has developed very much.

According to Zhang Rang, the current silver money of Huitong Bank is enough to support the expenses of Ji Qingchen's army of 600,000.

This made Ji Qingchen very happy, what he was most afraid of was that the imperial court cut off the food and salary of the Northern Liao army and the Beirong army, how should he solve the problem of food and clothing for these 600,000 people, and now with Huitong Bank, his problem will be solved!

Therefore, the three of them chatted tirelessly late into the night, but they were very interested, but Zhang Rang and Guo Quan were also very interesting, and they knew that Dao Ji Qingchen had a long distance and was not easy to disturb him, so they took their leave and left the study.

It wasn't until Zhang Rang and Guo Quan left that Ji Qingchen frowned, because he fell into a long period of contemplation.

Just now Zhang Rang and Guo Quan told him a lot of good news, and there was also a lot of bad news, which made him more worried, just like he just learned tonight, after he left Dayan to leave the country, "Iron Clothes" and "Inner Factory" were hit by the crown princess and Ji Zhao, they united the second prince Ji Ping in King's Landing City to measure Wang You's father and son and the eighth prince in King's Landing, one of the seven families of Cui, the three families worked together to carry out a brutal slaughter of "Iron Clothing" and "Inner Factory", if it weren't for Zhang Rang and Guo Quan's alertness, Earlier recalled most of the people to the palace, it is estimated that the losses suffered by the two major secret guard agencies and the three will be even more serious this time.

Therefore, when Zhang Rang and Guo Quanxiang asked Ji Qingchen what he should do, he did not answer the two immediately. Instead, he told the two to continue to develop the strength of the "Iron Coat" and the "Inner Factory", so as to wait for the opportunity and teach the crown princess and Ji Zhao, as well as the eighth prince and the second prince, a lesson. Of course, in addition to this, he is also a little worried, that is, now that Emperor Yan has set his sights on him, if he dares to use the "Iron Suit" and "Inner Factory" at this time, it is estimated that Emperor Yan will not sit idly by, and will definitely deal with him.

Therefore, his current solution is to wait, quietly wait for the opportunity!

And the only thing he can do now is to wait, wait until the wedding is over to see how Emperor Yan punishes him, and then make a decision. Because before Emperor Yan made a punishment, he didn't dare to make any other moves, so as not to provoke Emperor Yan even more angry.

However, Ji Qingchen didn't wait long in the palace, and waited for the notice of Zongzheng Temple, saying that the third day of the next lunar month was a good day, and he could hold a wedding for him and Shu'er.

It's September now, and there are only more than 20 days until the third day of the next month.

However, with the abundance of Dayan's treasury, Prime Minister Pei Wenju's ability, plus the Ministry of Rites and Zongzheng Temple, it is not a problem to organize a wedding in more than 20 days, so Ji Qingchen is not worried about time.

Soon, more than 20 days passed, and Ji Qingchen, who had been in the house for more than 20 days, finally ushered in his big wedding!

This day is the third day of the tenth month, and at night, Princess Anle in the Chunming Building is not happy or worried, and her face is calm, which is completely inconsistent with the pre-wedding standards of the bride. For the bride, before marriage is either crying to death or happy, but Princess Shu'er's calmness beyond her usual age makes her more like a young woman who sees through the red dust than a newlywed bride. And Shu'er's boudoir was decorated with joy, and the maids had all been ordered to leave the room by Shu'er, and she was the only one left in the empty room. The red bridal dress was placed on her desk, but she didn't even try it on, because there were no waves or ripples in her heart.

Because, no matter what day it is, Shu'er has liked Ji Qingchen for ten years in her heart, and in ten years, she has turned this liking into love and integrated this love into her blood.

Therefore, whether it is marriage or intercourse, Shu'er feels that it is very natural!

In the Northern Liao Palace, there is already a lot of traffic in front of the door, and the crowd is endless, all of them are the ministers of the court and the dignitaries of the scholars. No matter how Ji Qingchen disobeyed Emperor Yan, no matter how much sin he committed before, but now he has not been deposed from the title, let alone belittled by Emperor Yan, he is now married, and it is authorized by Emperor Yan, and he also let Prime Minister Pei Wenju personally handle it, so his wedding is very important in the hearts of the ministers in the court, so everyone came to the Northern Liao Mansion early today, and wanted to talk to Ji Qingchen, and wanted to express his closeness to Ji Qingchen.

As the head of the palace, Zhang Rang greeted the congratulatory officials at the door on behalf of Ji Qingchen, and occasionally Ji Qingchen personally greeted the central ministers and princes and nobles.

"The privy envoy General Lee has arrived—"

"The secretary of the ministry Wang Shangshu arrives-"

"The military department Liu Shangshu arrives-"

"Taishi Cui Shangshu arrives-"

…………

The ceremonial official at the door kept reading, these people are all ministers and dignitaries of the court, and it is necessary for Ji Qingchen to personally welcome them to the mansion one by one.

"His Royal Highness King Lu has arrived—"

"His Royal Highness King Pingnan has arrived—"

…………

"The crown princess has arrived-" The ceremonial official continued, but this lifetime of shouting made Ji Qingchen stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that a crown princess who could not live would come to his wedding today, which made him feel very uncomfortable, because just a few months ago, it was this crown princess who joined Wang You's father and son and the Cui family, one of the seven great families, to give his two major secret guard institutions a heavy blow. But he thought about it in his heart, but when he arrived at the door, Ji Qingchen didn't care about thinking so much, he hurriedly went out to greet him, and welcomed the princess and Ji Zhao to the flower hall in the mansion. And at this time, suddenly, I saw the sound of horses' hooves coming from the mouth of the alley, and I saw a team of Yulin riders and armor soldiers appearing at the mouth of the alley, and everyone Hao Ran found that the man in armor who was riding on the horse and walking in front was the deputy general of the Yulin Cavalry of Emperor Yan, and the poplar appeared here, which meant that Emperor Yan would come to attend Ji Qingchen's wedding in person, just when everyone was sighing in their hearts, they saw that Emperor Yan's frame had arrived at the door of the palace, in addition to Emperor Yan and the queen, Concubine De, there were many concubines in the harem. This suddenly made the ministers who attended the wedding frightened, the king of Northern Liao is still favored, and His Majesty still loves him!
