The personal welcome ceremony in the palace was presided over by the queen of heaven, she was dressed in a bright yellow phoenix dance for nine days to weave a golden Zhai clothes, wearing a twelve-winged phoenix crown, sitting on the upper seat.

The mat beside her was empty, and the saint was not in good condition and could no longer come to the ceremony in person.

Gu Mingyu was supported by the palace maid, walked up the steps of the Liangyi Hall step by step, and walked towards the sound of drums, her heartbeat was like a drum, she was already panicking, holding the hand of the palace maid, and the fan in her hand trembled slightly, and she stepped forward calmly.

But when she fanned the salute, she couldn't help but quietly raise her eyes to look at the man standing opposite, tall and burly, with a resolute face like a sculpture, looking at her with a steady peace, and even a slight smile.

Just at that glance, Gu Mingyu's heart seemed to fall into a solid place, he was still satisfied with this marriage, and he didn't like it.

The initial worry on the carriage was swept away in an instant, and the joy became lighter, mixed with shyness and anticipation, as if the sound was a little unreal, as if in a dream.

She and Li Mi bowed together in front of the Queen of Heaven and saluted in unison.

The queen of heaven looked at the two people in front of her, and there was a smile on her face, which had been calm all these days, and she accepted their salute before she called them up.

The guests at the table were also interested and congratulated one after another, but they glanced at the queen from time to time, and they were all worried.

After all, several princes and princesses couldn't hold back, and when they said hello to the queen of heaven, they said tentatively: "His Royal Highness King Xian is married, and Niangniang can rest assured, but now only Princess Anping is left, I don't know if the saint and Niangniang have a satisfactory candidate?" ”

The queen of heaven said lightly: "The saint is sick, today I am looking forward to San Lang's marriage to add some joy to the palace, and also make the saint get better as soon as possible, Anping is still young, I still want to keep her for a few years." ”

The princes and princesses quietly glanced at each other, and they didn't dare to ask any more, and they all watched the welcome gift at the banquet with their hearts.

Seeing that Li Mi and Gu Mingyu were sent out of the palace and returned to the palace, the joy on the queen's face slowly disappeared, she swept around the seat in the palace, and couldn't help frowning: "Why don't you see Princess Xian?" ”

King Xian is the brother of King Xian Li Mi, today is the day of Li Mi's wedding, and Princess Xian should come no matter what when it is her turn, but on the seats of the female guests, the seats of the crown princess and the princess Xian are empty.

Xu Siyan said in a low voice: "I heard that Princess Xian has been sick for the past two days, and His Royal Highness has already ordered someone to say it, and Princess Xian is afraid that she will not be able to come today." ”

Sick? The queen frowned, a few days ago, she saw Gina enter the palace to ask for peace, why did she suddenly get sick?

It's just that she didn't care about the affairs of the Xianwang Mansion originally, and just told Xu Siyan to reward some medicinal materials and send them to the Xianwang Mansion.

Xu Siyan responded, and said: "The crown princess sent someone to ask the imperial doctor to go over to check the pulse in the morning, saying that the fetus was moving badly, and she was afraid that something would be wrong, so she didn't come over." ”

The queen sneered: "She's careful." ”

The crown princess is indeed careful, too careful. Since he knew that he was pregnant, he began to make a noise, and he was on guard and beware of Gu Mingzhu in every way, and made a joke about the Qibao Banquet, but now he is going to mobilize people to ask the imperial doctor to order and judge the hospital to check the pulse, but he doesn't trust the medical officer who went to take care of her body.

The partial prince was obedient to her at this time, and agreed to anything, once the prince was drunk at the banquet in the East Palace, and said that the child in the princess's womb was his life-saving reliance, and it reached the ears of the queen of heaven, and he didn't sleep for most of the night.

Unexpectedly, now that the saint is sick like this, she is about to hand over the throne to the crown prince, and the princess is still in this confused state.

Thinking of this, the queen of heaven couldn't help but look up at the prince on the seat, only to see that his cheeks were bloody, his eyes were blurred, and he was staggering and leaning on the palace maid.

The queen frowned even more, and looked away dissatisfied, not wanting to see him again.

At this time, the crown prince was talking to King Chen Liuwang about the Xishan camp: "...... Although Lu Suiliang is usually confused, he has a good point, the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies has been returned to Gu Qing's palm print, so the Xishan Battalion should not be handed over to him again, otherwise all the defense inside and outside Chang'an will be handed over to him, if there is any mistake, how can he protect the safety of the people of a city. ”

"I see that Huang Zhao, the captain of the cavalry, is a very good candidate, and he is also a general who leads the troops, he has been in the Liaodong Army for many years, is it possible that he can't manage thousands of people in a Xishan battalion, what does King Chen Liuwang think?"

Li Nian, the king of Chen Liu, had been sitting on the table eating wine, listening to the drunken prince talk loudly but rarely spoke, and then he asked a little worriedly: "...... The younger brother didn't know, but I heard that General Gu was very good at leading troops to fight, maybe it would be good to hand them over to him. ”

Hearing him say this, the prince smiled proudly, then hand over the Xishan camp to Huang Zhao, in short, he couldn't go along with King Chen Liu's wishes. What's more, Huang Zhao is an informed and knowledgeable person, not only gave him a lot of rare treasures, but also specially selected two charming orchids from the Western Regions and sent them to the East Palace, which made him feel comfortable these days.

When he thought of this, he became proud again.

These days of dealing with the government, the queen of heaven often privately reprimanded him for having no monarch's mind and vision, so that he could be self-reflective. But now it seems that he is also very good at the emperor's heart attack technique, and will do the opposite, Chen Liuwang is afraid that he can't imagine that he has no intention of asking him at all, just to test his thoughts.

He shook his head triumphantly and drank another one.

Li Nian sat beside him, but there was no sadness or joy, silently no longer speaking, as if thinking about his own thoughts, and he had no interest in the wedding banquet and singing and dancing in front of him.

By the time the banquet was gone, the prince was already drunk, muttering that he would drink and drink again, but he was already so paralyzed that he couldn't move, so he could only let the palace maid help him back to the East Palace.

Li Yu, the king of Xian, and Li Nian, the king of Chen Liu, both got up and watched the prince walk away, and then walked towards the outside of the hall one after the other, but the faces of the two of them were not so good-looking under the lantern in the hands of the servants.

If the illness of the saint is a storm that has been brewing for a long time, then this storm is probably close at hand, and the next thing is to look at the fate of the individual.
