The sky darkened unconsciously, and the sunset gradually sank.

Emperor Jingcheng and Empress Gongyi Jing'er and hundreds of concubines had been waiting in the courtyard, but they had not seen Yan Wuzheng and Ling Yue come out for a long time.

Yan Longyi's face became more and more ugly.

In the hall, an attendant came in and bowed and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the War King, Lord Lingyue, the emperor sent a servant to pass the word, may I ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the selected princess are ready to go out to see the emperor and queen?" ”

Shangguan Yuchen waved his sleeves with his back to the inner attendant, and only turned around when he felt that the inner attendant had already left the side hall.

Gongyi Wuying pulled out a far-fetched smile, "I don't know how Brother Chen plans to end up now?" ”

"This Yan has no dispute, is he really ready to throw all the trouble to this king?" Shangguan Yuchen didn't have a good breath to spit out.

"What should I do now?" Ling Yue's voice was anxious.

Silence spread in the hall, and everyone only hoped in their hearts that Yan Wuzheng would come back soon.

But it didn't take long for there to be shallow footsteps, and Shangguan Yuchen had no choice but to turn his back again.

The attendant bowed down and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the War King, and the Lord of Lingyue." The emperor has decreed that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should immediately take the selected crown princess out to meet the emperor and queen. ”

Shangguan Yuchen waved his hand backwards, and when the servant of the decree retreated, he twisted his brows and said to Gongyi Wuying: "The emperor has been summoned directly this time, and Wuzheng has not come back yet, we have to think of a way to see if we can drag the time first." ”

Gongyi Wuying raised his finger and gently rubbed his temples, and said, "The key is how to delay time now?" There are so many concubines waiting outside, and the father and queen mother are also waiting there, waiting for Wu to go out to announce the candidates for the crown princess and the crown prince's side concubine. ”

Shangguan Yuchen thought about it slightly, and then said: "For today's plan, I'm afraid that the only way to do this is to select the crown prince and concubine first, so that the emperor can disperse the people outside first." ”

"How to choose? You choose? Gongyi has no shadow, and the willow eyebrows are lightly raised.

Shangguan Yuchen immediately fell silent.

The hall was unusually quiet, and for a while, it seemed that only the sound of the wind outside could be heard blowing the flowers and trees.

After a while, another attendant came in.

The chamberlain knelt directly on the ground, lowered his head and said nervously: "His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the War King, Lord Lingyue." His Royal Highness the Prince, the emperor sent a servant to pass the word and say...... Speaking of which, do you want to ...... Want to make ...... Want to make ...... The Emperor and Empress came to see you in person? ”

As soon as these words came out, Shangguan Yuchen, Gongyi Wuying, and Ling Yue all knew that the emperor was already completely angry.

Ling Yue didn't think much about it, she walked straight to the coffee table by the window, took out one of the many painting scrolls at random, handed it to the waiter who was kneeling on the ground, and said in a deep voice: "Present the portrait to the emperor and queen, and say that it is the prince's side concubine selected for the prince." ”

The messenger received the idea, got up and walked to the front of the emperor and queen outside the hall, holding the portrait with both hands, and respectfully reported: "Your Majesty, the queen, this is the portrait of the side concubine selected for the prince from the lord of Lingyue County." ”

Yan Longyi was stunned, it turned out that the reason why he didn't come out for a long time was to accept the side concubine, you don't want to accept the side concubine, you came out and said, after spending so much time in the palace, let me and Jing'er and the concubines waiting here for half a day, what kind of system is this? I was annoyed, so I took the portrait and unfolded it casually.

At this time, he was full of anger, where was he still in the mood to look at the portrait of the side concubine? So, without even seeing who it was, he handed the portrait to Gongyi Jing'er beside him.
