Get up on the wrong side of the bed? She was in a bad mood last night and came to the palace in the rain to find him, and today she was in a bad mood and walked with her third brother in this imperial garden? What was going on in her heart? Could it be that he was afraid that he would not be able to compete for the prince, so he found an extra backer?

Xuanyuan Che looked at the silent Yumo, saw that she was dressed as a squire, and recalled the scene when she was in the palace today, when she changed her clothes, her heart suddenly softened, and the anger on her face gradually faded, she took a step forward, and did not shy away from Xuanyuan Qing in front of her, slowly took her hand, and said: "Since I promised you that matter, I will never change it no matter what!" You have to believe that I am! ”

Yumo's eyes froze when she heard this, and then she woke up, blaming herself in her heart, she really deserved to let Brother Che worry about her regardless of his filial piety.

Just when Yumo was annoyed by his impulsiveness, he had already bowed his hand slightly to Xuanyuan Qing: "Che has filial piety, please ask the third brother to send Mo'er back to the Prime Minister's Mansion for Che!" "Right now, there are not many people left in this Changle Palace that he can trust, Xuanyuan Qing is still one, and coupled with his affection for Mo'er, he will naturally send her back safely.

In the early autumn of the twenty-sixth year of Zhenyuan, the biological mother of King Qin, Concubine Mei, who was favored in Changle Palace, died of illness, and Emperor Fuxuan was grief-stricken, and posthumously awarded the title of Empress Xianxiao and was buried in Dongling.

Originally, the fifth day of September of this year was supposed to be the wedding day of Prince Xuanyuan Lang and Jiang Yuxi, but it was postponed to the Shangyuan Festival of the following year due to the new funeral of Empress Xiaoxian.

The prince's marriage was postponed, but in addition to the hatred in Prince Xuanyuan Lang's heart, Miss Yuxi of Jiang's Mansion was also resentful, not because she hated to marry, but because she was worried that she would have a long night and many dreams, and her marriage with the prince would be a side again.

Let's say that since Jiang Yumo was sent back to the Prime Minister's Mansion by King Rui from the Imperial Garden that day, she has been depressed every day, no matter how Mrs. Xue explains, she is still worried day and night, and she can't sleep at night.

Such a depressed mood followed her for nearly a month, until the day before yesterday, after the prime minister returned to the house, Zhuying secretly put the prince's marriage on hold, and the king of Qin begged the emperor to give her the marriage in public.

Brother Che did such an unruly thing for her, she was really guilty.

But after all, King Qin's invitation violated the law of etiquette, because although King Qin had a heart, he was no match for the mouth of a hundred officials.

On the main hall that day, the officials of the Ministry of Rites headed by Wang Shangshu took a copy of the Emperor in front of the emperor on the grounds that King Qin did not comply with the ancestral system of etiquette.

The emperor loves Concubine Mei deeply, and he also values King Qin more than other princes, plus King Qin has been smart since he was a child, and his military achievements are outstanding, but his temperament is a little colder, but he is by no means a person who acts recklessly and does not think about the consequences. Now he suddenly asked for marriage during the filial piety period, which is really a bit strange, but above the main hall, he is not easy to ask, so he has to throw this problem into the hands of Prime Minister Jiang Chengze. After all, the person in King Qin's prime minister is his daughter Jiang Chengze, if Jiang Chengxiang has no opinion, even if the etiquette is not compatible, he will read it in the face of the deceased Concubine Mei and approve the marriage.

But Prime Minister Jiang Chengze has always been close to the prince, and he wants to marry the two daughters under his knees into the East Palace, at this moment he saw that the King of Qin was overstepping, and there were people from the Ministry of Rites and others who participated in him, so he knelt in public to thank the King of Qin for his love for his daughter, and said that when the new funeral of Queen Xiaoxian, the whole country was in pain, and the King of Qin was filial piety.

Seeing Jiang Chengze's words, but they sounded good on the surface, but in fact they were all accusations, the emperor was suddenly unhappy in his heart, and it was not good to attack in front of the ministers, so he had to press the matter and discuss it later.

However, when he was about to retire from the court, an edict was issued that during the mourning period of Empress Xiaoxian, all the people of Southern Chu, regardless of their status, were not allowed to perform the wedding ceremony to comfort the soul of Empress Xiaoxian.

At once, the whole country was in an uproar. According to the customs of Southern Chu, the mourning period of the royal family is as long as 100 days, and now it is less than a month before the death of Empress Xiaoxian, which means that the people of Southern Chu will join their emperor to hold a funeral for the late queen for 100 days.

Even if the marriage of ordinary people's families is postponed for a month or two, it doesn't matter, but on the fifth day of the next month, it was originally the day of the prince's wedding, but now it has to be postponed.

It is said that the marriage date of this prince was originally set by the high priest of Qin Tianjian three years ago, the prince is the prince, and he is the future emperor of the Southern Chu State, and his position is naturally heavier than the late Concubine Mei, how can his marriage be postponed at will because of the death of a concubine, but this holy decree of Emperor Fuxuan has undoubtedly shown the world that the weight of Empress Xiaoxian in his heart far exceeds that of Empress Xiaoci's mother and son.

……

The moon is in the sky, the sound is silent, the breeze blows the moon, the lights in the Fengyi Hall are bright, and the maids are all bowing their heads and guarding outside the hall.

In the hall, Empress Xiaoci was dressed in a jujube red palace dress, her left hand supported her forehead, and she looked down at the pale yellow figure in front of her and sighed slightly.

"The queen mother, the father clearly doesn't take the queen mother in his eyes, how can the queen mother be so idle with him? Putting aside the marriage of his sons, where did his father and emperor put his mother? Thinking that Concubine Mei was originally just a singer from a low background, she took advantage of her father's favor when she was alive, and now that she is dead, she still makes an exception to posthumously crown the queen? It's not worth it for the queen mother! "Xuanyuan Lang came to Fengyi Hall after going down today, and he had nowhere to vent his anger in his heart, so he could only pour bitter water in front of the queen.

"Alright, Lang'er. This palace knows that you are wronged, but since your father has issued an edict to inform the whole country, this matter cannot be reversed. You'd better be calm and wait a little longer! Yuxi's virtuous temperament must not be resentful. As for those false names, Hongu doesn't care. After all, the deceased is gone, and her position when she was alive is still under this palace. Now that she's gone, giving her a false name is just a piece of your father's heart. Lang'er, why are you so obsessed? The queen raised her hand and patted the back of the prince's hand, trying to soothe his manic mood.

Xuanyuan Lang was indignant because of the postponement of the wedding, and let the queen persuade him, he just thought in his heart that if it weren't for the sudden death of Concubine Mei just in time when he was about to ask the emperor for an edict, which made him delay the time to express his heart, how could there be a scene on the hall today that caught him off guard.

But it happened to be this incident that made him understand a truth, if Xuanyuan Che didn't die for a day, he wouldn't be able to live in peace for a day. Putting aside the Jiang Yumo he wanted, he was afraid that according to his father's favor for his mother and son, his position as the prince might not be able to be guaranteed in the future. Recalling that day, he did not hesitate to sacrifice dozens of dead soldiers, and he was unable to ask for Xuanyuan Che's life from the mountain, and now that the tiger has returned to the mountain, it is really not easy to want his life again. Fortunately, as soon as Concubine Mei died, no one could speak for him in front of his father.
