Chapter 31: The Post-Election Ceremony
Then Zhang Man asked someone to inform all the ministers of the news, no matter what other people thought, anyway, after Qin Lingxiao learned about this, his expression immediately changed greatly, and he didn't even have the idea of going to Liu Yanran to have fun, and immediately rushed to Cihe Palace to ask to see her.
Zhang Man was not surprised by Qin Lingxiao's arrival, and specially waited for him in the room, and after Qin Lingxiao entered the room, he split his head and covered his face: "Queen Mother, why do you suddenly want to hold a post-election ceremony without asking me?" β
Hearing this, Zhang Man raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "If the mourning family asks you, can you agree?" β
Hearing this, Qin Lingxiao choked, and then said, "Since the queen mother knows that I won't agree, why do I have to ......?"
He was a little puzzled, Zhang Man had been very fond of him since he was a child, and he had always been obedient to him, why did he suddenly hold a post-election ceremony despite his wishes this time?
"Ling Xiao, didn't you notice that you were deeply affected by that Liu Yanran? You would never have done such a self-digging thing before. Zhang Man said bitterly.
It's a pity that Qin Lingxiao didn't appreciate it, he only thought that Zhang Man was also the same as Shen Ruohan and Liu Zhong who betrayed him, and they all had bad intentions towards Liu Yanran.
"Queen Mother, you misunderstood Yan Ran, it was my idea to order those people to be executed before, and it has nothing to do with Yan Ran."
After hearing Qin Lingxiao's words that were so obsessive, Zhang Man was furious, and he was so angry that he couldn't even speak smoothly, "You...... You're going to me off! β
Seeing this, Qin Lingxiao immediately stepped forward to ease her, but was pushed away by Zhang Man, "The decree has been issued, and this palace will not take back the fate, you can do it!" β
After that, she put on a posture of sending off guests, Qin Lingxiao naturally did not dare to disobey Zhang Man, and in desperation, she had to leave Cihe Palace.
Thinking about how to explain this matter to Liu Yanran, Liu Yanran not only did not complain in front of him that night, but began to comfort him and persuade him not to be angry with the Queen Mother Zhang Man.
Hearing this, Qin Lingxiao couldn't help but be secretly moved, feeling that it was really merciful for him to be able to have Liu Yanran by his side in his lifetime, but it was a pity that the queen mother misunderstood her deeply.
However, what he didn't know was that although Liu Yanran had a gentle smile on her face, she said with disdain in her heart: That old witch is also capable of this, does she think that if she finds a yellow-haired girl casually, she can be her opponent? As long as Qin Lingxiao has been bewitched by her, no matter how many people come, it is useless.
Soon it was time for the post-election ceremony to be held, since ancient times, the emperor of the post-election ceremony must not be absent, so although Qin Lingxiao was very reluctant, he had to give his mother a face, so he still reluctantly came to participate in this ceremony.
Seeing this, Zhang Man was very satisfied, but after seeing him bring Liu Yanran over, her eyes immediately began to darken, and she was angry in her heart, but it was not good to show it in front of everyone, so as not to be seen as a joke.
Therefore, he had to swallow his anger and pretend not to see it, and he never greeted Liu Yanran during the whole process.
Seeing this, Qin Lingxiao was a little dissatisfied, but seeing that Liu Yanran didn't care about it, he didn't say anything.
And Shen Ruogu was also fortunate to participate in this ceremony because of Liu Yanran's relationship, she was very curious about who the Queen Mother Zhang Man would choose to deal with Yanran?
The post-selection ceremony is divided into three steps, and the first is still a clichΓ© talent show.
Although the ministers had a lot of complaints about Qin Lingxiao because of the previous incident, they did not plan to let their daughters miss this opportunity to ascend to the sky in one step, so many ministers' daughters came to participate in this post-election ceremony.
Only a very small number of ministers whose relatives died at the hands of Qin Lingxiao were unwilling, and now that Liu Yanran favored the harem alone, they knew that their daughter would not be favored by Qin Lingxiao even if she entered the palace, so they were unwilling to let their daughter go to this troubled water.
Shen Ruogu could understand the twists and turns in this with a little thought, so she admired their foresight a little, she knew very well that these daughters who had never experienced wind and rain were absolutely impossible to be the opponents of her friend Liu Yanran.
Instead of entering the palace and wasting time in the harem, it is better to find a good person to marry.
Due to the large number of people who came to participate in this ceremony, the first talent competition did not end until almost lunchtime, and the first place winner was Zhang Gelao's daughter, the daughter of the guy who used to be her father's old rival.
Now that his father is dead, Shen Ruogu has no intention of taking revenge on his daughter, so he and Liu Yanran commented on each other very calmly.
In fact, just because of these people's talent shows, she felt that they were not playful, because these people together were not as talented as Liu Yanran.
As the talented girl who was named the first in the capital, Liu Yanran was able to become friends with her, and naturally she would not be much worse in this regard, but she has always been low-key and has never been recognized.
If Zhang Man wanted to fight this idea, then her wishful thinking would be in vain.
After the first talent competition, Liu Yanran went to lunch with Qin Lingxiao, and she could only go back alone, but when she passed by Jiang Feng's palace, she suddenly felt moved in her heart and wanted to go to him to have a look.
Because Shen Ruogu was suddenly on a whim, and Jiang Feng dismissed all the palace maids and eunuchs who had stayed here in order to avoid exposing Shi Yao's affairs here.
Therefore, Shen Ruogu almost came to the door of Jiang Feng's dormitory, and just as he was about to push the door in, he heard a woman's crisp voice coming from inside.
"Jiang Feng, you can make me roast chicken again, I like to eat it so much!"
Well? Woman? How could Jiang Feng have a woman here?
Shen Ruogu was a little surprised, so he didn't push the door in for the first time, and it was rare to hear the corner.
"Princess, that chicken was stolen from someone else last time, if it weren't for the fact that you are still familiar with the owner of the palace, I'm afraid you would have to go and see it in prison." Jiang Feng's helpless voice came from inside the door.
Princess?
Hearing this, Shen Ruogu's expression changed slightly, she had entered the palace as a companion to the princesses of the Jin Kingdom when she was a child, so she knew all those princesses, but the voice of the woman in the house was extremely unfamiliar, obviously not the princesses she knew.
Thinking of Princess Shi Yao, who was still missing, Shen Ruogu suddenly understood something, he didn't expect that Princess Shi Yao, who everyone couldn't find, was here, Jiang Feng was really bold!
And Shen Ruogu's slightly changing breathing at that moment was captured by Jiang Feng, and his expression changed suddenly, and he shouted, "Who? β
While motioning for Shi Yao to quickly hide in the cabinet, he took out his sword and stabbed it through the door!
