The morning sun poured in softly through the gauze tent, sprinkling on the woman's jade-like delicate cheeks, and the thin hairs seemed to be transparent.

He's so pretty!

Mu Yan bowed his head and kissed her sideburns, gentle, delicate, like a jewel.

Duanmu let out a low muttering sound, and opened his eyes in a daze, sleepy-eyed.

Mu Yan looked at her quietly, and his heart was soft, as if he had honey.

He whispered to her ear, "Sleep a little longer." It's still early. "He opened his eyes and spoke nonsense.

Duanmu Fei felt that his body was sore and painful, and before he woke up, he responded in a trance and closed his eyes again.

Her long, thick eyelashes twitched slightly, then opened them suddenly, and she looked up slightly, and he wanted to bow down to kiss her sideburns on the other side.

As a result, the forehead happened to hit the forehead.

"Boom!"

This collision made Duanmu Fei completely sleepy and woke up completely.

Mu Yan was very distressed, and hurriedly went to rub her forehead, "Does it hurt?" ”

Duanmu shook his head and sat up with the thin quilt in his arms, uncomfortable from head to toe, as if he had played Keju all night.

Of course she was tired and wanted to sleep, but it was already dawn.

Duanmu glared at Mu Yan. There are still a lot of things going on today, and it's not good to delay the auspicious time.

Mu Yan looked at Duanmu Fei with an innocent face, and said with a straight face: "Today is a break from the dynasty." ”

They got married and took a three-day break, so there is no need for an early pilgrimage today.

Duanmu scarlet had a small face, and his big black and white eyes continued to stare at him.

Although there is no need to go to the early dynasty, but today they have to go to the Taimiao Temple, to pay tribute to the tablet of the Chongming Emperor, and after that, she will accept the worship of the internal and external women as the queen.

She can't show up until three poles in the morning!

Mu Yan touched his nose and said thoughtfully, "I'll help you ......"

He wanted to say that he helped her dress, but she glared at her and swallowed back the words.

He obediently got off the bed, and Duanmu Fei found that he had already dressed himself, with a slight moisture in his hair, and a faint fragrance, as if he had just bathed.

When did he get up? Duanmu Fei thought about it while also staying down.

She was embarrassed to ask the pothos to come in, so she got up by herself, dressed herself, and put on her shoes......

Mu Yan personally went outside to bring in the washing tools, and served her to rinse her mouth, and served her to clean her face, diligent and thoughtful.

When he was eager to comb her hair with a comb, Duanmufei finally couldn't sit still and called the pothos and the cicada in.

The two maids skillfully groomed Duanmu Fei and wore big makeup.

Mu Yan watched from the sidelines, pursing his lips and smiling, with undisguised joy rippling between his eyebrows.

Duanmu Fei just didn't see it, but his cheeks were slightly red, and there was an indescribable tranquility and warmth in his heart.

At the beginning of Chen, Duanmu Fei, who was dressed in Zhai clothes and wearing a phoenix crown, left Kunning Palace with Mu Yan.

Next, they will go to the Taimiao Temple to worship together, which is not only to see the Emperor Chongming, but also to the new emperor and the queen to pay tribute to the ancestors and ancestors.

The most nervous person in the whole ceremony was probably Fan Peizhong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, thinking about the new emperor's scene yesterday, he was worried that the new emperor would suddenly play some new tricks with ingenuity.

Fortunately, this time God probably heard his prayers, and the entire Taimiao sacrifice went smoothly.

When they returned to the palace, it was already an hour later, and the two came to the main hall of Kunning Palace together.

Those women who have been waiting in the two tents outside the Kunning Palace have long been on standby, and today they will also come to worship the new queen.

The princess, the county lord, the county lord, and so on gathered in one place, and the inner women gathered in one place, and the outer women gathered in another place.

At a glance, there is a clear distinction between the inner and outer women.

Some of the women who knew each other formed a small group in twos and threes, each talking and greeting, and most of them were talking about yesterday's post-establishment ceremony, and it was difficult to hide their envy from the description.

An old woman wearing a lot of makeup sighed with a sigh: "I heard that yesterday the emperor personally went to Muguo Mansion to greet him, which is also an unprecedented honor." ”

"This Ministry of Rites is also based on the emperor's temperament!" A middle-aged woman wearing second-grade makeup said a little sourly.

"This arm can't twist the thigh, if the emperor has to say this, what can the Ministry of Rites do!" The old woman said again, "The emperor really has a heart, and he was not even willing to let the queen kneel when he was canonized yesterday." My old man said that it was the emperor who personally helped the queen mother to the throne, and he almost didn't see the eyeballs of the people in this hall at that time. ”

"That's it! The emperor to the four ...... The queen has always valued it! Another young woman said meaningfully.

The middle-aged woman simply said it bluntly: "With the support of Lord Cen Governor, it's really different." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, the old woman quietly tugged at her sleeve.

The middle-aged woman glanced at the other party disappreciably, meaning, Cen Yin is no longer in the capital anyway, what happened if she said a few words?

"......," the old woman silently raised her hand and pointed to the entrance of the tent.

Only then did the middle-aged woman notice that there was a slender figure at the entrance of the tent.

It's her!

The middle-aged woman quickly shut her mouth.

In the tent, there was silence.

The other women also noticed the arrival.

An Ping, who was wearing the princess's makeup, appeared at the entrance of the tent, she just walked so unhurriedly, and her whole body exuded a compelling momentum, as if the peony with a bright crown was bright and dazzling.

The women inside and outside this room were all overwhelmed by her momentum.

Everyone was silent.

Immediately afterwards, a group of women stepped forward to greet her: "I have seen Her Royal Highness the eldest princess!" ”

For a while, Anping became the focus of everyone's attention, and those women either stepped forward to salute or chatted with her, and the atmosphere became lively again.

Some people envy her, some people are in awe of her, some people flatter her, and some people look at her with a little subtle eyes.

The royal family, regardless of age or age, only talks about dignity and humility, even if the prince and princess are the uncle and grandmother of the new emperor, when they see the queen, they will also pay a big salute, especially on a big day like today.

According to the rules of the people, it is necessary to call aunts, aunts, uncles and grandmothers, and it is for the younger generations to kowtow to the elders for tea, but in the royal family, it is the other way around, but these elders have to kneel and salute the younger generations, including Anping.

Prince Zhuang looked at An Ping not far away, didn't go over to salute, the corners of her lips hooked with a smile, and her expression was a little mocking.

Hmph, Anping has endured humiliation for nearly 20 years, and raising the new emperor to grow up can be regarded as a great achievement, but so what?!

Anping said that she is the eldest princess, she is extremely noble, but no matter how expensive she is, she can't be the queen, and she doesn't want to kneel down to her nephew and daughter-in-law and pay a big salute! I don't know how she's feeling right now!

Thinking of the various things on the day of the peony banquet, Princess Zhuang still felt aggrieved in her heart, and the depression and resentment of the past month were only now a channel to vent.

Isn't Anping looking at Duanmu Scarf's little girl?! But today she didn't want to bend her knees and bow to a little girl who had just reached the end of the day!

The more Princess Zhuang thought about it, the more she felt impatient, and she sneered on her lips, waiting to see a good show.

Suddenly, a smiling chamberlain entered the tent and said, "Ladies, the emperor and the queen have arrived, please follow our family to Kunning Palace!" ”

The ladies looked at each other in confusion and said in their hearts: What is the emperor doing here?

Thinking about it, they still followed the chamberlain to the main hall of Kunning Palace, and stood according to their respective ranks, with solemn expressions.

There was silence in the hall.

Those palace maids also lowered their eyebrows and looked respectful.

Soon, I heard a loud chant from the chamberlain: "The emperor has arrived, the queen has arrived!" ”

The women all bowed their heads, and the corner of their eyes glanced at the emperor and queen who came hand in hand.

People are in good spirits on happy occasions, and the new emperor wearing a dark crown has his eyebrows stretched, high-spirited, and has a kingly demeanor, and he doesn't care about other people around him.

Duanmufei, who is a wife, changed her hairstyle and combed her bangs up, revealing her smooth forehead. Her complexion was ruddy, her eyes were bright, her demeanor was quiet and elegant, revealing a calm and relaxed indifference.

The two walked slowly like this, looking intimate, and occasionally a slight eye contact could tell that the newlyweds were in deep love.

Many women quickly withdrew their gaze and made a low-brow and pleasing appearance.

Suddenly, Mu Yan and Duanmu Fei stopped.

The women were stunned, they didn't know what was going on, and more and more eyes looked in the direction of the two, only then did they notice that the emperor and queen had stopped in front of An Ping.

Duanmu Fei and Mu Yan personally helped Anping to move forward.

In addition to the throne of the emperor and queen at the front of the main hall, there is also a phoenix seat covered with red embroidered phoenix brocade on the right side of the throne.

The little couple helped Anping to sit down on the phoenix seat.

The surrounding wives were quieter and more surprised, not knowing what the emperor was doing.

In the main hall, you can hear the needle dropping.

When the two palace maids brought the two futons, everyone's pupils shrank sharply, their eyes widened in disbelief, and a certain guess appeared in their hearts.

Prince and Princess Zhuang also thought of it, and almost didn't exclaim.

In the shocked eyes of everyone, Mu Yan and Duanmu Fei knelt down in front of Anping.

The couple kowtowed to Anping at the same time, respectfully.

After Duanmu kowtowed, he took the teacup from the palace maid's hand, presented it to Anping, and called sweetly in his mouth: "Mother." ”

Mu Yanle said happily: "Mother, this is daughter-in-law tea!" ”

As he spoke, he blinked quickly at An Ping, meaning, my son can do it, let you drink your daughter-in-law's tea!

Anping took the teacup, didn't bother to pay attention to his stinky son, took a sip of tea with a smile, and praised "good" again.

“……”

“……”

“……”

This is too solemn!

The expressions of the women were different, some were dumbfounded, some frowned, some showed emotion, and some such as Prince Zhuang couldn't believe their eyes at all.

How is this possible?! Princess Zhuang pinched her thigh fiercely, her facial features were slightly distorted, and the pain told her that all this was not her dream.

Immediately afterwards, Duanmufei took a pair of shoes embroidered with the pattern of flying swallow peony from the pothos, and handed it to Anping with both hands, "Mother, this is the shoe I took with my own hands, you remember to try to see if it fits." ”

Duanmu Fei's tone was intimate and his smile was bright.

Many women cast envious glances at Anping, thinking: Anping has raised the new emperor for many years, and this hard work has not been in vain! This dignity is something that others can't ask for!

Most of the people present today knew what happened on the day of the Peony Banquet, and when they thought about it at this moment, they were even more embarrassed, and said secretly: No wonder Anping is willing to support Duanmu Fei as the master, and even did not hesitate to offend several princes and princesses. Look, this new queen is really a smart person, and her move today is not only to give Anping face, but also to please the new emperor.

Yes, it's no wonder that she can coax Cen Yin to treat her as if she were her own sister.

Some of the women looked more subtle.

Before, some people were speculating that Cen Yin was not in the capital, and the new emperor had less scruples, whether the queen's life would not be as good as before, but now it seems that it is difficult to say!

An Ping took the pair of shoes with a smile, and the smile on his bright face deepened, looking at Duanmu Fei lovingly.

This girl just has a heart!

An Ping pulled out a mutton fat white jade bracelet on his hand, put it on Duanmufei's wrist affectionately, and personally helped Duanmufei up.

The two of them laughed and laughed, just like the most ordinary mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the folk.

This scene was also taken into the eyes of the people below.

Some of the older wives were even more emotional.

Older people like Prince Zhuang and Princess Li all know that this jade bracelet in Anping's hand was given by her mother, who was Mu Yan's grandmother, and Anping has been wearing it for so many years, which shows her love for this jade bracelet, but now she gave Duanmufei without hesitation, which naturally shows her love and recognition for Duanmufei.

Prince Li muttered softly: "Anping is blessed. ”

Princess Xing, who was beside Prince Li, also heard it and nodded thoughtfully.

Today's Dasheng Dynasty does not have the Queen Mother, and Anping's status is equivalent to the Queen Mother, but she lives more freely than the Queen Mother, and she can go wherever she wants, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is more honored than the Queen Mother.

After that, Mu Yan took Duanmu Fei to the golden lacquer throne and sat down.

After the two of them sat down, the wives present finally came back to their senses, brushed the ground a little shorter, knelt down to salute the emperor and queen, and shouted in unison:

"Long live the emperor, long live!"

"Queen Mother Chitose Chitose!"

What followed was a series of ceremonies, in which the princesses and the wives who were present had to come out one by one to greet the queen, one was to greet the queen, and the other was to let the queen recognize people.

For this reason, there was already an old eunuch standing by Duanmufei's side, and he carefully attached his ear to inform Duanmufei of the identities of these people.

Luluo and Bichan also listened carefully on the side, more serious than Duanmufei, and the two maids thought that they couldn't embarrass their masters.

The ritual was extremely monotonous, with mostly repetitive movements and repetitive words.

After a full hour, it was finally over.

The women who had stood below for an hour were so tired that their legs and feet were numb, and Duanmufei, who had been sitting above for an hour, was also tired.

But no matter how tired she is, she can only hold up her spirits.

Subsequently, she sent most of the women to the courtesy, and only left a few more prestigious elders in the clan such as the prince and princess to speak.

But all the women who were left behind were naturally very dignified, and they all held their heads high and their faces were radiant.

Mu Yan was inconvenient to stay on this occasion, so he had to leave reluctantly.

Duanmu Fei was busy until noon, and by the time everyone left, she was already hungry.

In front of Anping, Duanmu Fei didn't bother to disguise himself at all, wilting like a flower lacking water.

She sighed pitifully, feeling that she was so pitiful, not only did she not sleep well, but she also had to socialize, hey, how good it was when she was not married!

The little girl's thoughts were almost written on her face, and An Ping couldn't help but cover her mouth and smile.

At this time, an old lady came and asked Anping and Duanmu to move to the east side hall for dinner.

After lunch, Anping left early to not disturb the newlywed couple.

But this doesn't mean that Duanmufei can take a nap, as soon as An Ping left, the chief eunuch came to ask: "Queen Mother, do you want to see the minions of each palace and each court?" ”

The chief eunuch said that he was a "slave", but in fact, where are ordinary palace maids and chamberlains qualified to come to see the queen, he said that they are all the best people in the harem, at least they have to be in charge.

Before Duanmu Fei could speak, Mu Yan had already pushed for her: "I don't see." ”

Mu Yan was quite dissatisfied in his heart, thinking that these palace people were really blind, didn't he see him talking to Zhen Zhen?

The chief eunuch retreated in fear, thinking about coming back next time when the emperor was not there.

Mu Yan sent all the subordinates away, and took Duanmu Fei's hand to the dormitory, "Zhen Zhen, are you tired?" Take a nap, I'll be with you......"

He paused, originally saying that she was sleeping, and he accompanied her in the house, and halfway through the conversation, he changed his words again and added the word "sleep".

Mu Yan felt that he was too clever, "When we wake up, let's go for a walk and take a casual stroll in the palace, okay?" ”

Duanmu Fei was really sleepy, rubbed his eyes, and responded.

Mu Yan personally took off the heavy phoenix crown for her and untied her hair.

When the black green silk scattered like a waterfall, Mu Yanfeng's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but think of the appearance of the dense black silk scattered on the big red brocade quilt last night, and his heart was as hot as when he was on the ground, as if he had a stove.

Zhen Zhen is tired. He said to himself in his heart, "The eyes look at the nose, and the nose looks at the heart."

He hugged her and lay down on the couch, although Duanmu Fei was sleepy, he couldn't help but want to talk to him.

The house in the afternoon is quiet and warm.

The two of them spoke without a word:

"Ah Yan, what time did you get up in the morning?"

"The rooster crows."

"Are you still going to box?"

"Hmm. Just punching in the yard. ”

“……”

The two chatted casually, and in a daze, Duanmu fell asleep.

took a nap beautifully, and when Duanmu got up, it was already more than half of the time.

Mu Yan sent those maids, palace maids and chamberlains, and personally accompanied Duanmu Fei around the palace with great interest.

Duanmufei is no stranger to the palace, whether it is when Chu Qing resigns or when Duanmufei is in charge, she often comes and goes.

But today is a different mood.

In the future, this palace will be her home, no, it should be said that it is the home of the two of them.

Thinking about it this way, the solemn and magnificent temples around him seemed to look much more intimate.

The palace is too big, and it can't be finished by walking for a while and a half, so Mu Yan simply asked people to get Ben Xiao and Feipian, and the two set off from Kunning Palace on horseback, wandering around at random, chatting while strolling.

In this forbidden place of the imperial palace, probably only the emperor can ride a horse with the queen and walk in the palace at will.

The happiest thing should be flying, happily stepping on the hooves, everywhere you go, "get" sounds, attracting the curious eyes of many palace people, seeing that it is the emperor and queen, and busy lowering her eyes.

The two of them walked around and came to Wenyuan Pavilion.

Mu Yan could see that Duanmufei was a little tired, so he got off the horse, and then hugged Duanmufei from Feipian.

He played by himself with the two horses, and he took Duanmu Fei's hand into Wenyuan Pavilion.

The pavilion was as quiet as ever, with a strong smell of books blowing in the face, and as far as the eye could see, there were rows of bookshelves and neatly placed books.

The little chamberlain in the pavilion hurriedly saluted the two, and Mu Yan took Duanmufei's hand up the stairs familiarly.

Wenyuan Pavilion is the library in the palace, Duanmu Fei is very familiar with this place, when she was still Chu Qingci, she often came here with Wuyang, and she had read most of the books here.

At that time, she used to sit here for most of the day.

Mu Yan dragged Duanmu Fei up to the third floor of Wenyuan Pavilion, until he came to the window and sat down.

This is also where she used to read books, Duanmu Fei subconsciously looked out the window.

At this look, she was so surprised that she opened her eyes slightly, only to see that there was an extra lotus pond behind Wenyuan Pavilion, and now it was only April and the next month, and the lotus flowers had not opened, only the lotus leaves of the half pond were green and verdant.

When the wind blows, the water surface of the pond ripples layer by layer.

"This pool ......" Duanmu Fei confirmed that there was no such lotus pond here before.

Mu Yan said with a smile: "Zhen Zhen, do you like it?" In the future, you can often come here to read books and enjoy the flowers. ”

Mu Yan looked at Duanmu Fei with a look of appreciation.

He remembered what Ah Ci used to say when he was a child, the rockery behind the Wenyuan Pavilion didn't look out of tune at all, it was better to build a lotus pond, and when you were tired of reading, you could enjoy the flowers and let your eyes rest.

It's a pity that the affairs in the palace at that time were not something he could say, but now it is different.

"I like it." Duanmu Fei nodded vigorously, looking at the lotus pond below, his eyes were shining, and he almost doubted that Mu Yan could read minds, and actually thought of going with her.

Mu Yan was even more proud, raised his hand and pointed in the direction of Qianshi Mountain, and said, "I thought that a pavilion could be built on Qianshi Mountain over there." ”

"Also, how about building another conservatory on the west side of the Imperial Garden?"

“……”

Mu Yan kept talking, he said it was all he heard Chu Qing say by chance when he was a child.

Duanmu Fei nodded and nodded, smiling with crooked eyebrows, very happy, and occasionally adding some of her own suggestions.

The two planned and discussed with great interest.

The palace was not something that the two of them could visit in half a day, and the next day, it took them another day to ride horses.

Time flies by like glue, and in the blink of an eye, it is April 22, that is, the day when the three dynasties return to the door.

Early in the morning, Mu Yan personally accompanied Duanmu Fei back to the door.
