Chapter 043: The Big Wedding

Since that night, Zhao Sizhuo has really annoyed her, the two are on the dragon boat together, close to each other, but they have no intersection.

During the voyage, the two never met and never spoke.

At noon five days later, the fleet headed by dragon boats docked on the outskirts of the Imperial City, and in the early morning of the Chinese Wu courtiers, they were already waiting respectfully at the docks of the Imperial City, until the third pole of the day, and the emperor waited for the imperial driver.

Different from the mystery when boarding the ship, when getting off the boat, Ye Zhiqiu followed behind Zhao Sizhuo, and was generous and calm. She looked at his figure in front of her, so arrogant and cold. He hadn't seen her for five days, had just reached the surface from the ship, and his gaze hadn't even lingered on her for a moment.

For some reason, she was a little sullen in her heart, looking forward to the result she wanted to get along, but she was ...... in her heart but it became more and more bitter.

"Weichen welcomes His Majesty back to Beijing~ Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"All Aiqing have worked hard, let's all be even~" Zhao Sizhuo stepped forward and supported him slightly, standing at the head of the civil officials at the forefront, Taifu Lin Feng.

When Lin Feng saw Ye Zhiqiu behind him, there was a joy and emotion in his eyes, but soon, he was suppressed by the unsmiling expression that he had always had on weekdays, and it was fleeting, only Zhao Sizhuo in front of him could see it, and his heart was a little moved. Although Lin Guangyao and the Ye family are incompatible, his own uncle, in the past 18 years, has acted from the perspective of his interests and for the sake of the country, which is diametrically opposed to his grandfather, who is selfish and self-respecting.

Thinking about what Lin Guangyao has done over the years, and her...... What he said that night, his eyes couldn't help but turn cold.

There are a few important ministers who have seen Ye Zhiqiu at the Lantern Festival Palace Banquet, and when they saw her who had been missing for two years at this time, they were immediately stunned and looked at each other, and the old ministers, who were already old, did not dare to confirm it, and still guessed in their hearts: Could it be that a concubine and a beauty sealed by the emperor in the Jinling Palace look so similar to the granddaughter of General Ye?

And the official rank is not high, and the officials who have never seen her appearance are far away, and they can't see their real faces, but they only feel that their temperament is noble and out of the ordinary. Some people guessed that she was the daughter of the king of southern Jiangsu, the newly named "Jia Concubine Niangniang"; Some believe that she is the "poppy beauty" of the country.

Adults who have lived in officialdom for a long time have a delicate heart, and they will not easily let people grasp the wrong place, so on the dock, a sentence in unison sounded: "Weichen see Niangniang~ Niangniang Chitose, Wanfu Jin'an!" ”

I thought that whether it was Concubine Jia or Yu Meiren, it would not be wrong to call "Niangniang" Wantuo. They are secretly appreciating their alertness in their hearts.

"Nonsense! The emperor and queen have not yet married, how can they call the queen mother! Lin Feng shouted.

In the hearts of the people: "!!!! Could it be that this is the "quasi-queen" who disappeared in the war when she visited her relatives after the closure two years ago! Why has there been no news from Jinling, and even the Internal Affairs Office and the Internal Supervision Office have only learned the news of Concubine Feng.

"Weichen deserves to die, I hope the emperor will forgive his sins!" The ministers complained bitterly in their hearts, no wonder those high-powered ministers saw the woman behind the emperor, their faces were different. But where can they, the courtiers below the third grade, know the eldest daughter of the Ye family, who was prominent and noble two years ago!

"Whoever does not know is not guilty. The Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the Internal Supervision Department began the wedding as soon as possible, and the ceremony was held on the second day of the wedding. ”

When Lin Guangyao got off the boat, he saw that the mysterious woman in the palace turned out to be the daughter of the Ye family, and his heart was already irritable and gloomy, the emperor actually hid it from him, did His Majesty know something and have doubts about him? At this time, when he heard that he was still the same as two years ago, he wanted to set up Ye Ruiguang's granddaughter as the queen, and suddenly blood rushed to his brain, and he stepped forward to stop this matter. "Please think twice! As we all know: Ye Shangshu was martyred two years ago, and one of his children disappeared in Jiangbei, and now, even if it is a woman who is very similar to his daughter, it is not necessarily the daughter of the Ye family, this woman is in Jinling Palace......... Out of thin air, I'm afraid something is wrong. ”

He originally wanted to directly talk about the assassination at night, but thinking that since the emperor knew everything, if he said it bluntly, he was afraid of provoking Long Yan's displeasure, so he had to suppress his anger and wanted to delay the army and said: "The minister has a strategy: it is better for General Xuanye to enter Beijing and recognize whether this woman is his granddaughter, and then come back, you still have to explain clearly: where she has been in the past two years and why she has been missing for two years." The wedding of the emperor and queen is related to the society of the country and the people, and I hope the emperor will think twice! ”

When everyone heard this, they were terrified, what General Lin meant: Someone dared to pretend to be the future queen?

However, several old ministers who had seen Ye Zhiqiu, after seeing it clearly, felt that it was impossible to fake it. No matter how similar people in the world are, they will not be exactly the same, unless they are twin sisters of the same mother.

Zhao Sizhuo looked at the kneeling person in front of him and said lightly: "General Lin is too worried. Two years ago, Ye Aiqing and his family returned to Jiangbei to visit relatives, and they encountered the invasion of the Northern Yan thieves on the border between China and North Korea, Jiangbei City. Ye Aiqing and his wife encountered enemy troops and unfortunately died in the country, which can be called loyal martyrs. General Ye Lao held the city, bravely resisted the enemy, and finally led the Ye family army to resist the enemy army and survive the siege, but General Ye Lao lost his beloved son, which hit him very hard. The importance of General Ye and Ye Jiajun to the Southern Zhou Dynasty must be well known to all Aiqing and the people, and they are grateful to Dade. Although I was very reluctant, I finally couldn't bear General Ye to lose his son when he was old, and the grief was abnormal, so I was ready to play. ”

"On the way to drive my family, I happened to meet Ye Zhiqiu, who was separated from his family, and Miss Qianjin suddenly encountered tragic disasters such as war and the death of her parents, and she couldn't stand the stimulation for a while, and she lost her memory in a coma. It was because of the kindness of General Ye that I put Miss Ye in Jinling Palace to recuperate, and now that she has recovered, I took her back to Beijing with her. ”

In this way, all of Lin Guangyao's doubts were verified by Zhao Sizhuo himself.

Everyone was solemn in their hearts, and they had respect for the Ye family and Ye Ruiguang. For the future queen mother, although both parents died, she did not dare to slack off and look down on her.

Lin Guangyao was deflated in public, but he didn't dare to attack.
