Cao Yu stood in the distance of Weiyang Palace, the night wind blowing, as cold as a winter night.

He followed Qin Wujiang's trail to find the suburbs, and didn't hurry back until he heard the news of the eldest princess and his relatives, wanting to see Changning and ask about the ins and outs.

Although he knew very well that he was not qualified to ask Changning at all.

But he still wanted to know if this matter was really as everyone said, Changning himself asked to marry Na Ruo.

The night was overcast, and the moon was obscuring it.

Before he entered the palace and saw the queen mother, he was led to the small gate outside the Weiyang Palace, which no one passed, but the eunuch who led the way made an excuse to report to him first and left him here alone.

Cao Yu guessed that this was His Majesty's acquiescence and wanted him to see Changning and keep Changning.

Because of this, he did the most daring thing in his life, passing through the courtyard wall of Weiyang Palace and coming to the outside of the palace platform.

Surprisingly, there were no patrolling guards passing along this road.

Cao Yu became more and more convinced of his own thoughts.

If His Majesty really has this intention, he is willing to fulfill him and Changning and fulfill their marriage.

A stream of heat surged in Cao Yu's heart, like a frozen person suddenly drinking a pot of hot tea.

He strode towards the main hall, but was stopped by an old woman before he could meet him, and the old woman led him into the east side hall.

"Shizi, all the things stored in this palace are the dowries of Queen Xiao Chunyi, according to the rules, they must be personally selected by His Royal Highness, and they must take the phoenix crown of Empress Dai. Please stay in the room, in about half an hour, and His Highness will come to choose a dowry. ”

The old lady lit a candle to illuminate several large sandalwood boxes neatly arranged in the side hall, and a phoenix crown was enshrined on a high place.

Gemstone bead pendant, dotted with emerald inlaid with gold, twelve crested heads each hold this gem chain falls, and the pearl curtain of uniform size in front of the forehead hangs into a waterfall shape.

Cao Yu seemed to see Changning open the bead curtain and smile brightly and movingly.

"The prince?" The old lady asked.

"Thank you." Cao Yu returned to his senses and waited behind a floor-to-ceiling embroidery screen.

The old lady left the hall and locked it.

It took Changning more than an hour to put on the wedding dress, and the palace maid combed her hair before she realized: "Why hasn't the phoenix crown been sent yet?" ”

"Your Majesty has a decree, please use the phoenix crown of the first queen."

Changning's eyelids moved slightly: "Take it." ”

The old lady arched her hand: "The phoenix crown is in the east side hall, and at the same time there is also the dowry of the first queen, Your Majesty asks His Royal Highness to choose to marry." ”

Changning's calm expression finally gave birth to a trace of waves.

"Choosing a dowry?" Changning raised his eyebrows slightly.

In her previous life, she refused to marry Cao Yu, and her father made the decision to add makeup to all the dowries of the queen mother.

Anyway, I also married to Sui'an Hou Mansion, not far away.

And now she is going to marry to the Turks, and her father is probably reluctant to give up her mother's old things.

The corners of Changning's lips were slightly raised.

No matter what her father had the idea, she accepted it.

"Let's go, then."

"The princess is driving." The old lady lit the lamp to lead the way, the door of the main hall opened, and the little palace maid went in and lit the lamp and then retreated.

"Your Highness, please." The old lady invited Changning to enter the palace, but stopped the wooden kite and the palace maids from accompanying her.

Mu Kite crossed his eyebrows and scolded angrily: "What are you doing, I am the palace maid of Your Highness." ”

Mama was unmoved: "After the first queen went, His Majesty issued a decree to seal the palace, and all the places where the relics of the first queen were stored were not allowed to outsiders to enter, let alone outsiders were not allowed to touch anything left by Queen Xiao Chunyi. ”

"You!" The wooden kite is not angry.

Changning waved his hand: "I'll pick it myself." ”

The wooden kite glanced at it, bit her lower lip and retreated, but the old lady guarded outside the main hall like a goddess, and did not give her a place to stand at all.

It's clear that he doesn't want her to get close.

Changning's eyes wandered, and they closed the door and walked into the matching hall by themselves.

The boxes on both sides were opened, and there were old clothes from the queen mother, favorite calligraphy and paintings, and embroidery left behind.

There was even a sewing dustpan covered with a red cloth on the only sandalwood carved wooden box that she co-authored, because she was about to come in, the palace maid lifted half of the red cloth, revealing a small belly pocket that was obviously only half made in the dustpan.

Changning walked over uncontrollably.

The moment your fingertips touch the soft fabric, it's as if you're touching your mother's fingertips across time and space.

"Queen Mother's ......"

She clutched her little belly pocket, and the carefully selected smooth fabric slid softly through her mind like a mother's love.

Changning closed his eyes, wanting to cry and laugh.

She put the needlework dustpan aside and opened the wooden box.

Sure enough, inside were the small clothes and pants worn by the baby, as well as tiger head hats, tiger head shoes, and rattles, which should have been her childhood things.

At the moment of the death of the queen mother, everything seemed to be frozen and sealed here.

Changning's fingers swept over the stacks of neat small clothes, and with a slight flip of his thumb, he found that more than half of them were baby boy clothes of the color of royal blue lake green.

Did the queen mother also want a son in the first place?

Oh, yes.

If the queen mother had a son, and her brother would have been born, everything would have been different.

Changning remembered quietly, his fingers lingered on the small clothes and trousers, and he seemed to undoubtedly turn his head: "Haven't you come out yet?" ”

"I ...... I don't want to disturb His Royal Highness thinking about the first queen. Cao Yu's voice was deep and tangled.

Changning turned around.

Cao Yu's figure walked out from behind the screen.

At that moment, his steps froze.

In the past, he knew that Changning's appearance was bright and beautiful, but he didn't expect that there would be a girl in the world who matched red like this.

She painted slender eyebrows, the bridge of her nose was straight, her lips were as red and full as Danyang, and a bunch of red plums suddenly appeared on the wall tiles covered with snow in winter, which was so stunning that people flashed white light in front of their eyes.

The winter thunder and summer rain were annoying, and the splash seemed to smash into Cao Yu's heart.

The even more stunning wedding dress outlined the bright red figure, the jet-black hair was draped over the shoulders, and the girl's waist was restrained.

Changning walked towards him, he didn't need a phoenix crown to announce the beauty, just this step Cao Yu knew that he would never forget.

Even if he lived a hundred times in his previous life and this life, and let him see him a hundred times, he still firmly believed that he would fall in love with Changning deeply at this glance.

It's a pity that in this life and this life, her wedding dress is not for him.

"Cao Yu." Changning Dan's lips opened lightly and stared at Cao Yu.

Cao Yu came back to his senses and hurriedly lowered his head.

"I've seen Your Highness."

"You're here to ask why I asked to marry a Turk instead of you, are you?" Changning spoke, still straightforward as usual.

Cao Yu didn't know how to speak for a while, and he held back for a while before saying, "Don't dare." ”

Changning smiled suddenly.

Be.

Even in her previous life, Cao Yu kept in mind the distinction between monarchs and ministers, so how dare she question anything.

"I'd rather you question me." Changning smiled and stretched out his hand to him.

Cao Yu tensed his upper body so that he did not dodge.

The girl's hand reached out to his chest, and Cao Yu closed her eyes tightly.

With a light touch, Changning pinched his fingers and took the red line pebble in his arms.

Cao Yu opened his eyes suddenly, and subconsciously reached out to grab it.

But when he touched Changning's slightly cool fingertips, he suddenly retracted, and his voice was painful: "Your Highness...... The rock has not been transferred, but the grass has been ignored? ”

Changning unfolded the silk thread: "That rock, is it really no transfer?" ”

Cao Yu's eyes opened suddenly.
