In front of the magnificent Taimiao, the emperor stood on the high platform, holding a yellow silk and reading out the book of sacrifice to heaven. The bottom was full of princes and nobles, military officials, one by one bowed their heads and listened to the lengthy sacrifice, I don't know whether they were attentive or drowsy, in short, it looked quite solemn.

After the sacrifice was read and the three sacrifices were offered, the people shouted and bowed, and got up on the ground, when suddenly someone shouted: "Ah, shed tears——, shed tears."

When everyone looked at the altar, they let out a surprised gasp, only to see that the three sacrifices on the altar had blood and tears in their eyes, which was a great omen.

Huaxi's body stiffened, and he secretly looked up and saw the emperor's face condensed on the high platform, his eyes swept to a certain place below, his hand was close to his chest, as if he was holding back his anger, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Drive back to the palace"

Following the emperor's gaze, it was none other than Yin Yuanye and Ouyang Zheng who were kneeling there. Although the sacrificial ceremony was undertaken by the Ministry of Rites, the emperor handed over the post of manager to the King of Thailand, and pointed out that Ouyang Zheng was the assistant, and Ouyang Zheng would not be able to escape the responsibility if something happened at this time.

No one expected such a thing to happen, and the ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens ended hastily. The emperor left angrily, and the queen led the concubines to leave, and the scene was panicked for a while.

Huaxi glanced at Ouyang Zheng anxiously, and Ouyang Zheng just raised his head to look here, his eyes met, he cast her a reassuring look, and the corners of his lips raised slightly.

The Emperor is finally gone, but everyone knows that the real Thunder Fury will be next.

In the carriage, Huaxi sat by Ouyang Zheng, put his hand on his hand, clenched unconsciously, and asked softly: "What happened, ...... you?"

Ouyang Zheng only felt that her hands were slightly cold, wrapped her hands with her big palms, put them to her mouth and sighed, and then pinched her palms and rubbed them, "It's windy today, why don't you wear more when you come out, your hands are so cold." ”

Huaxi was stunned and forgot to speak.

In this way, one rubbed the other's cool hand to warm it up, while the other looked at the other quietly, and neither of them spoke. It wasn't until Huaxi's hand regained its temperature that Ouyang Zheng nodded with satisfaction, "If Ming'er runs into me again and doesn't return overnight, if you don't pay attention to yourself, I will definitely punish you." ”

Ouyang Zheng's behavior will surprise outsiders, he has always been indifferent, not as beautiful as Chen Hongfei, the king of Luodong who is the same name as him, and not as gentle and friendly as King Yin Jun, even saying such intimate words is not as gentle as others, like a cold river, the veins flow, no waves, but there is a different flow of warmth, Huaxi's heart trembled, and a warm current seemed to surge in his body, calming those fears and uneasiness.

Just as Huaxi was about to speak, the car suddenly stopped, it was the little maid serving the book in Ouyang Zheng's study in the palace, sweating profusely, and came to report, "Master, someone from the palace asked you to enter the palace immediately." King Chengjun also sent someone to let you be careful. ”

Huaxi unconsciously grabbed Ouyang Zheng's hand, but she didn't know how to speak, and finally a thousand words turned into one sentence: "I'm waiting for you at home"

Ouyang Zheng raised his hand and touched her hair, the corners of his lips smiled, "Well, wait for me to come back"

Ouyang Zheng got out of the car, and Huaxi went back to the palace alone.

Changing out of the heavy life wife's dress, Cui Ming helped unload the golden hairpin beads on Huaxi's head, recombed the fallen horse bun, and changed into homely light clothes to see the princess.

As soon as the princess came back, she went to the Buddhist hall, and Huaxi didn't dare to disturb, so she sat in the house. After waiting for a quarter of an hour, the princess was helped out of the Buddhist hall by her grandmother.

"Mother, take care of yourself, Xuan He knows the proportions, and he will be fine." Huaxi got up and helped Mama help the princess to sit on the kang.

Glancing at Huaxi lightly, the princess sighed slightly, "Hey, now I can only ask for peace of mind." The tone looked tired, as if he didn't want to talk to Huaxi more, and waved his hand, "Go back and rest after being tired for a long time."

Huaxi retired and left, and before going out, she saw Mama Feng, who was waiting beside the princess, hurriedly coming in from outside and almost bumped into Huaxi.

"Concubine" Mama Feng looked flustered, saluted towards Huaxi, but glanced into the house, and said apologetically, "The slave and maid should die, the slave and maid rushed back to the princess in a hurry, and accidentally bumped into you for a while, please forgive me." ”

"It's okay, I'm about to leave, Mama please" Huaxi glanced at Mama Feng, Mama Feng quickly retracted her gaze, bowed her head and stepped aside, "Concubine Shi, please"

Huaxi nodded and walked out of the house around her.

Mama Feng breathed a sigh of relief, strode up the steps, opened the curtain and entered the house.

"What's the matter?" The princess took the tea handed by the maid, took two sips and moistened her lips.

"Princess, Concubine Zhuangnan sent someone to deliver the letter." Mama Feng deliberately lowered her voice, "The Praetorian Guards have been ordered to raid the Marquis of Jingning's house." ”

Jing Ninghou is the cousin of the princess, and she has some business contacts on weekdays. Once the raid is inevitably implicated, plus Ouyang Zheng was called into the palace because of a problem with the festival, the princess was scared into a cold sweat, her hand couldn't help but tremble, and the teacup almost fell off, "When did you go?" ”

"As soon as I returned to the palace, I made an order, and Concubine Zhuangnan happened to be in the palace, and someone brought Xin'er over when she was taking medicine. The slave and maid let people go over to see, and the people have already arrived in Ansheng. ”

Princess Huo got down from the kang at once, "I have to discuss with the prince quickly." She didn't stop for a moment, put on her coat and went to the outer courtyard.

King Luoxi was discussing Ouyang Zheng's affairs with his staff in the study, and when he heard the door report that the princess had an urgent matter to find the prince, he couldn't help frowning, "Please come in, princess." ”

As soon as the princess came in and saw that there were still people in the house, she glanced at the prince, and King Luoxi waved his hand to call everyone out.

"Concubine Zhuangnan came with news from the palace that the emperor had someone copy the Jingning Marquis Mansion. It's really a disaster, not alone" Although it is said that accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, but in the past, everyone in the Luoxi Royal Mansion behaved in a low-key manner, but it only changed after Ouyang Zheng insisted on marrying Huaxi. Even if he doesn't ask about political affairs on weekdays, he still knows a little bit about his interactions, and he can figure out one or two from the conversation with the prince and the reactions of the palaces, the emperor is not satisfied with Xuan's family affairs, or that the emperor has other plans for Xiyue's affairs. At first, the princess didn't agree, but the princess nodded, and she didn't have much objection as a mother. There were accidents one after another in one day, and she couldn't help complaining about Huaxi, and she was even more worried about the children in the palace.

"Xuan has no news in the palace now, what if something happens?" The princess was so anxious that her voice changed slightly, "At the beginning, I said that I couldn't let him marry Princess Xiyue, and I refused the emperor's marriage in front of my head, and it was really ...... to announce this child."

Rao is King Luoxi, who is accustomed to seeing wind and rain in his daily life, and when he heard the news at this moment, he couldn't help frowning, his face changed slightly, he paced around the house, and said for a while: "What's the use of talking about this now?" Everyone has married back, and besides, I told you not to get involved in the business of Jingninghou's side a long time ago...... The saint has long been complaining about Xuan's attitude towards the matter of Xiyue, but copying the Jingning Marquis Mansion is not only warning us, I am afraid that the saint has already seen the silver in the hand of the Marquis Jingning...... Something happened to them, and it's not our family's business to punish them, you can be relieved, Xuanxin has already planned, and everything will wait for Xuan's news to make plans. ”

The wind rose outside the window, blowing away the yellowed trees on the branches, and King Rossi looked out the window and sighed, "The trees want to be quiet but the wind does not stop ......."
