Chapter 045: Face Saint (2)
I followed Qi Yan slowly to the palace, and although I lowered my eyes, I could still see, or feel, that the emperor was looking at me with his eyes.
Walking to a position in the center of the palace, Qi Yan stopped, and the hand holding my sleeve was immediately released.
His head tilted slightly, and his eyes gestured to me slightly, I naturally understood what he meant, and arranged his skirt very tacitly, and saluted the emperor of the crescent moon with Qi Yan.
"Meet my father."
"Meet His Majesty the Emperor."
My title is consistent with Gu Shoucheng and the others behind me, but it deviates from Qi Yan. He frowned at me suspiciously, but I bowed and saluted, with a frank face.
"It's all excused."
The Crescent Moon Emperor's low voice was somewhat weak.
"The daughter princess of the Great Zhou, Yu Wenxuan, really has an extraordinary temperament and appearance!" The Crescent Moon Emperor seemed to be pleased, "If you call you Xuan'er, the princess won't mind." ”
Hearing the emperor's question, I hurriedly saluted in response, "Naturally not." ”
"Xuan'er, this journey is very hard, right? Especially in the middle of winter, I must have suffered a lot. ”
"Back to Your Majesty, the materials prepared when I came were sufficient, and I was escorted by many soldiers, so I didn't suffer much."
"Well, that's good, that's good. Originally, I planned to let you rest for two days, and then talk about your marriage with Qi Yan, but now that the spring flowers are blooming and the weather is really just right, it is better to do the marriage the next day, but there are opinions. ”
I didn't expect the emperor to be so anxious about our marriage, "Your Majesty, even so, in such a hurry, will it be a little rushed?" ”
I whispered to Qi Yan, "Speak." ”
Qi Yan bowed and said loudly: "Her Royal Highness the princess may not be familiar with the customs of the Crescent Moon Country, so ......"
I listened to Qi Yan say so many words for the first time, I must have found some excuse to postpone the marriage, after all, he has other women in his heart, so why bother to face me, a foreign woman, every day?
But I finally believed him wrongly, and his "so" behind it was not the answer I hoped for.
"Therefore, Erchen is willing to marry Her Royal Highness the princess as soon as possible, and help the princess get used to all the customs of the Crescent Moon Country as soon as possible."
I was a little dumbfounded, and the emperor was very happy to hear his son's words.
"Okay, it's still Qi Yan who understands Gu's mind, haha, cough cough." The emperor coughed a few times, and a child standing in front of the hall ran up.
"Grandpa Huang, why are you coughing again, aren't you still well?"
"Qi Yuan, the imperial grandfather is fine, the imperial grandfather is happy for the marriage of your second imperial uncle."
"Second Emperor Uncle is getting married?"
"yes, are you happy?"
"Happy." Xiao Qi Yuan ran down from the dragon chair again, threw himself down to Qi Yan's side, raised his little face and asked with a smile, "Second Emperor Uncle, are you going to get married too?" ”
Qi Yan hugged him up and showed a pampering smile. "Yes, you're going to have an aunt."
"Is that her?" Qi Yuan pointed at me, tilted his head and winked at me, I smiled at him in a friendly way, Qi Yuan pursed his lips and actually cried.
"Qi Yuan, why are you crying?" A richly dressed woman walked over quickly and reached out to take Xiao Qi Yuan's hand from Qi Yan.
"Mother, the second emperor uncle has a beautiful aunt, and he won't play with Qi Yuan in the future."
Hearing this, the emperor and the court ministers were happy.
"I really didn't expect that Qi Yuan would also eat the vinegar of his future aunt, haha."
I glanced at Xiao Qiyuan's mother and son, and for some reason, there was some hostility in their very kind faces. Even that little Qi Yuan, his eyes seem simple, but there is a hint of cunning.
"Okay, the marriage will be the day after tomorrow." The emperor directly locked the date of the wedding the day after tomorrow. "Qi Yan, Xuan'er, the two of you can be combined together, it is a symbol of friendship and harmony between our New Moon and Great Zhou, so you must love each other in the future!"
Qi Yan saluted the emperor and said that he was taught. I had no choice but to bite the bullet and accept it.
"What else is the matter with the ministers?"
"Da Zhou Gu Shoucheng has something to do." Gu Shoucheng walked out at this time.
"Oh, it turned out to be General Gu who sent off his relatives, how about he rest in the post house? I don't know what's going on? ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern, the national teacher has arranged it properly, and you have a good rest. The minister was ordered to escort the princess of the Great Zhou Qianjin to the new moon and bring a lot of dowry things, I don't know where to put the dowry at this time? ”
"Naturally, it is better to put it in the British Palace, they will naturally live in the British Palace after marriage, and the sooner they put it in the British Palace, it will also save turnover."
Hearing this, Qi Yan explained on the side: "Back to my father, the princess's dowry is currently stored in the Yunyi Courtyard. ”
"Yunyi Courtyard?"
"It is the annex adjacent to the British Palace, and Her Royal Highness the princess gave the word Yunyi as the name of the courtyard." Qi Yan continued to explain: "The other courtyard originally belonged to the annex of the British Royal Mansion, and it was so close to the British Royal Palace, the second minister thought that it was no different from the British Royal Mansion when placed here. ”
I naturally heard Qi Yan's thoughts, and I didn't seem to like my things very much, so I moved them into his yard.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, Xuan'er also thinks that His Royal Highness the Second Prince is right, since the items have been stored, don't spend any more time tossing."
The emperor hesitated for a moment, and when he saw that Qi Yan and I were on the same page, he had no choice but to nod and agree.
"The items for the dowry are like this for the time being, and the soldiers who sent them to their relatives ......"
Before Gu Shoucheng finished speaking, I hurriedly grabbed the conversation. "Your Majesty, the soldiers who sent off their relatives have had a lot of hard work all the way, and I hope Your Majesty will allow them to stay for a few days in the New Moon and then return."
"Well, that's natural, it's just a little inconvenient to stay in Leah City temporarily."
Naturally, I knew the emperor's concerns, so I added a word. "Your Majesty, please rest assured, General Gu has strict military discipline, and he will definitely not rashly affect the security of Leah City, not to mention that the temporary stay will not be too long."
"Yes, father, the weather is cold all the way, and the soldiers who sent off their relatives are really hard, it is better to let them rest in Broken Leaf City for a few days, and then return to Da Zhou after the weather is completely warm." Qi Yan added on the side.
I said in my heart, "It seems that Qi Yan is really careful, he doesn't have to worry about this kind of operation, but in Broken Leaf City on the border, don't they care?"
"In this way, General Gu will stay in Lia City for the time being, and the other soldiers will go to Broken Leaf City, and when Xuan'er gets used to it in the new moon, then return to Da Zhou." The emperor smiled and said, Gu Shoucheng and I had no choice but to listen.
"Okay, Lone is also a little tired, Qi Yan, you take Xuan'er to the harem." The emperor waved his hand, and then instructed the eldest princess: "Jingqiu, you take Qi Yuan and follow, the queen can't think about it if she can't see this little grandson for a day." ”
The emperor slowly got up, and everyone knelt down in unison.
