One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and this marriage decree unsurprisingly caused an uproar in the capital.

Today, the four princes under the emperor's knees are at marriageable age, except for the four princes who were born and are counted as the next candidates, the third prince Jianwang has married a side concubine, and His Royal Highness the prince and His Royal Highness King An, who is also a concubine, are naturally the top candidates.

The lord of Mingzhu County has admired His Royal Highness King An for many years, and it is a well-known secret.

There have been rumors before, saying that the emperor intends to give marriage to the two, although many official ladies are inevitably sad, but with the family background and appearance of the lord of Mingzhu, it is also a good match for His Royal Highness King An.

Unexpectedly, a nameless Bai Yanran suddenly appeared, and for a while, this name became a hot topic in everyone's mouths, and everyone was envious and jealous of the jokes. After hearing about it, I learned that this Bai Yanran was good-looking, her family background was not obvious, and she didn't have any talent and fame, so she really didn't know how she got into the eyes of the emperor.

The most devastating one is Gu Yueyao, who had already hinted that he and his cousin would marry, and even the queen mother had always liked herself. As soon as the decree of marriage came out, Gu Yueyao entered the palace but ran into a wall one after another.

She went to Shangde Hall and was told that the emperor was summoning courtiers to discuss politics, and then went to Fengyi Palace, which had never even had to be reported, but was stopped and said that the queen was unwell and not suitable to see people. Gu Yueyao stood outside the gate of Fengyi Palace in a daze, and her eyes slowly turned red.

The queen can be called sick, but Emperor Yuan and Emperor cannot. Gu Yueyao stayed outside the Shangde Hall for a whole day, during which the courtiers went in and out secretly pointing fingers, and she didn't care at all, only the stubborn pestle at the door and no one listened.

Today is indeed a busy government affair, Ji'an has been rainy for half a month, and yesterday was finally overwhelmed and flooded. Tens of thousands of people were displaced, with heavy casualties, and the entire court was busy dealing with disaster relief strategies, and Emperor Yuan He naturally couldn't be idle. He was busy until dinner, when he was reminded by the chief eunuch De'an to realize that it was so late.

He casually asked, "When did Yueyao go back?" ”

De'an looked at the emperor's expression, and was embarrassed: "The slave has been persuaded for a day, and the lord of Mingzhu is still waiting at the door, and he refuses to even move to the side hall." The slave let people cover the sun, but fortunately, he didn't get the heat. ”

Emperor Yuan He frowned and said, "Yueyao has been waiting outside the door for a whole day? Monkey business! ”

After that, he sighed helplessly and said, "This kid has been stubborn since he was a child, just like A-Ning's temperament. It's no wonder that she couldn't figure it out, I had just leaked it to her before, but I turned my head and gave the daughter of the Bai family a marriage, how could I give up with Yueyao's temperament. ”

De'an said cautiously: "It's no wonder that the emperor is not responsible for this matter, the emperor doesn't have to blame himself too much." ”

Emperor Yuanhe said with dissatisfaction: "The queen is now old and confused, Lingyun is just a serious illness, so let her follow the gods, I have to say that the daughter of the Bai family who came out of a small family is compatible with Lingyun, and can bless the emperor's health and smoothness, not pestering me to give marriage." ”

Emperor Yuanhe didn't say anything, he didn't know that Ji Lingyun had been hit by an evil spell and his soul had left his body, but he had been poisoned before he could use the medicine stone in vain. That day, in order to make Emperor Zhaohe change his mind, the Tong family vaguely revealed that the matter was related to the establishment of the king.

Even if the queen doesn't say it, Emperor Yuan He also has this conjecture, after all, there are very few people who hate Ji Lingyun and have the means to poison him, and he still has the courage to do this, so he really doesn't think about it except for King Jian. In order to appease the queen, Emperor Yuanhe obeyed her wishes and gave a decree of marriage.

If this matter is said later, it is not for De'an to listen to it, he hurriedly turned away from the conversation, and said: "Fang Cai Zichen Palace sent someone to invite the emperor to dinner, I don't know what the emperor wants?" ”

Emperor Yuanhe's eyebrows stretched slightly, and he said, "It's okay, let's go see the concubine." ”

De'an was just about to go down to make arrangements, and asked in embarrassment: "Where is the pearl county lord......?"

Emperor Yuanhe said impatiently: "You want her to go back, don't make any more trouble, the marriage decree has been made, and it is impossible for me to take it back." You...... Haosheng comforted her, and I gave her something another day, and she would figure it out. ”

De'an took the order to go out and walked out of the Shangde Palace, Gu Yueyao was looking at him expectantly, De'an stepped forward and saluted, and said, "County Lord, the palace gate is about to be keyed, you better hurry back." ”

Gu Yueyao bit her lip and said stubbornly: "It's been this hour, uncle still doesn't have time to see me?" ”

De'an took a step closer and whispered: "County Lord, I won't tell you, this matter is the queen mother begged in front of the emperor, although the emperor intended to fulfill your heart before, but after all, the queen mother is the biological mother of His Royal Highness King An, and the emperor is helpless, so he has to change his mind and decree marriage." ”

Gu Yueyao's face turned pale, and she shook her head and said: "Impossible, the queen mother has always liked me, and she took the initiative to mention the marriage to her uncle at the beginning, how could it be ......?"

A deep meaning crossed De'an's eyes, and he said: "The slave shouldn't have chewed the root of his tongue with you in this matter, it's just ...... Alas, you also know that the queen has always worshiped the Buddha, and a few days ago, I heard that His Royal Highness King An was not in a good year, and he needed to marry a princess who matched the eight characters to protect him, so he took a fancy to Miss Bai. ”

Seeing that Gu Yueyao's body was already crumbling, he hurriedly supported the person, his lowered eyes were full of ridicule, but his mouth said: "Now that the wood is complete, it's too late, the county lord still wants to drive some." There are many good men in the world, since His Royal Highness King An doesn't have this blessing......"

Before the words were finished, Gu Yueyao had already withdrawn her arm and left in despair. De'an slowly got up and straightened his sleeves, and went to prepare the sedan chair with a blank face.

When the saint arrived at Zichen Palace, there was no need for anyone to pass it on, Lan Guifei had already dressed up and was waiting at the door, a trace of light flashed in Emperor Yuanhe's eyes, and he got off the sedan chair and went up to help Lan Guifei and said with pity: "Although it is summer and summer, the sun has set and the mountain is still a little cold. You're not in good health, so why are you waiting outside all the time? ”

Concubine Lan glanced at Emperor Yuan He with infinite grace, and said with a sneer: "The concubine has just come out to take over, why is she so delicate." ”

The two entered the Zichen Palace together, and a table of dishes had already been prepared in the house, and Concubine Lan used little for herself, so she drove away the eunuch who was clothed and let him serve him earnestly.

After a meal, the palace maids rushed in to clean up the table, Emperor Yuan He moved to the couch to drink a few teas and concentrate, Lan Guifei saw his expression stretched and said tentatively: "I just let Guizhi go to Deshang Palace, only to know that the lord of Mingzhu County has been waiting outside for a day today, presumably for the marriage of King An, right?" ”

Emperor Yuanhe sighed and said, "That's exactly what happened. Yueyao, you also know, I have liked Lingyun since I was a child, and I am also interested in adult beauty, but I don't want to ......"

Concubine Lan naturally heard some rumors before she talked about it, but at this time, she asked knowingly: "The concubine remembers that the emperor has always liked the county lord, and the county lord is infatuated with His Royal Highness King An, and even the concubine can't help but be moved, why doesn't the emperor be an adult?" ”

Emperor Yuanhe opened his mouth, and then said irritably: "You don't have to say it anymore, now that the holy decree has been issued, Yueyao is not unable to marry, she will figure it out sooner or later." ”

Concubine Lan said with a smile: "This is natural, the lord of Mingzhu County is both talented and beautiful, and he is the leader of the famous family in the capital, if he is not waiting for His Royal Highness King An, I am afraid that the threshold of the princess's mansion will be broken." Now that His Royal Highness King An has married the princess, the lord of Mingzhu County naturally can't be a side room, and it seems that the two are inseparable. ”

When it came to this matter, Emperor Yuan and Emperor Yuan were dissatisfied again, and the queen mentioned that Emperor Yuan and Emperor Yuan originally wanted to use the family background of the daughter of the Bai family to be a concubine of King An, and it was not in conflict with Yueyao's position as the princess. But the queen insisted on seeking the position of concubine for the daughter of the Bai family, saying that she could not treat others badly.

In fact, the queen is also thoughtful, firstly, she is afraid that she will not be able to bring protection to Ji Lingyun if she is insincere, and secondly, she also knows that Gu Yueyao's temperament is intolerable to others. At that time, King An's Mansion will definitely be a piece of chickens and dogs, but it will lose both.

When Concubine Lan saw Emperor Yuanhe's expression, she knew that he was dissatisfied with the queen in her heart, so she hit the railroad while it was hot: "The concubine is not afraid of the emperor's jokes, in fact, Si Hong has always had the county lord in his heart, but in the past, the county lord was full of His Royal Highness King An, and he was not easy to show." Now that the county lord and His Royal Highness King An have no relationship, if the emperor allows the county lord to Si Hong to achieve a good relationship, he can not embarrass the county lord. ”

Emperor Yuanhe didn't want to have such a play, others didn't know, but he knew his private temperament as the third emperor. Emperor Yuan and Emperor Yuan were also going to give Gu Yueyao another marriage, but if this person was Ji Sihong, he couldn't help but hesitate.

"You also know Yueyao's temperament, and you still need to ask her what she means about this matter. And she is still twisted now, I'm afraid she won't, I'll talk to her in a few days. ”

Concubine Lan said with a smile: "Then the concubine is waiting for the emperor's good news, presumably Si Hong will be happy if he knows it." ”

The two of them made their own plans, Gu Yueyao lost her soul and left the palace, gritted her teeth and let the carriage go to King An's mansion.

At this time, it was the glow of the sun, and the smoke curling on the houses was full of fireworks in the world, but Gu Yueyao seemed to be walking alone in the thorn bushes. She knocked on the door of King An's mansion. Ignoring the concierge's surprised look, he walked straight in.

Ji Lingyun had already had dinner and was feeding the fish by the lake, looking very good, she was unexpectedly hugged from behind, and all the fish food in her hand was poured into the lake, and a group of fish of all colors rushed around.

"Brother Lingyun, don't you marry another woman, Yueyao should be your princess, you can't marry someone else, I don't allow you to marry someone else!"

Ji Lingyun sighed in his heart, and said softly: "Yueyao, you let me go first." ”

Gu Yueyao shook her head with red eyes, and said trickily: "I won't let me go, I will never give you to others anyway." ”

Ji Lingyun grabbed her embrace, turned to look at Gu Yueyao and said, "Yueyao, you and I have grown up together since childhood and are like brothers and sisters, if I was interested in you, I would have gone to my father to ask for marriage a long time ago, so why wait until today to have this marriage decree?" ”
