Chapter 159: Hibiscus Tent Warmth
In the early morning of the next day, King Qi, as usual, wore his usual clothes to practice in the courtyard, while the remnant wind, the lightning, the thunder, and Uncle Zhong stood quietly and watched.
After practicing for an hour, King Qi's back was already soaked with sweat, and Uncle Zhong stepped forward with a hot handkerchief and a cup of tea and said with a smile: "Lord, yesterday was your new marriage, and the emperor also gave you a three-day vacation, so you don't have to get up so early." ”
King Qi took the hot handkerchief to wipe the sweat on his forehead, took another sip of hot tea, and then said lightly, "Today I have to enter the palace to give tea to the queen mother and the royal brother to thank you, naturally you have to get up early, Uncle Zhong will send someone to see if the princess has gotten up." ”
Hearing this, everyone was stunned, how could the prince not know if the princess got up? But there is also this possibility, yesterday was a candle night in the cave room, I'm afraid the princess is tired, but why hasn't there been any change in looking at his prince? Don't they all say that people are in good spirits when they are happy? But it still looks the same as usual.
King Qi found everyone's strange eyes, and hurriedly declared: "This king slept in the study last night, naturally I don't know if she got up, why do you look at this king with such strange eyes." ”
"Lord, as I say, after a long drought and dew, I meet my old acquaintance in a foreign land, the cave room spends candle night, and the gold list is inscribed. This is collectively called the Four Joys, last night was your cave room flower candles, how can you leave the bride in the cave room and go to sleep in the study by yourself? Lei Ming put on the appearance of an old man and said to King Qi.
"Hmph, if you like it, let it be good for you." King Qi snorted coldly and said without hesitation.
"Huh? Lord, this joke can't be made, the princess is the mistress of our Qi Palace, and her subordinates are still self-aware. Lei Ming pretended to wipe the sweat from his forehead. But in my heart, I am still secretly slandering, if you know that the bride is Miss Ling, see if you are still reluctant, I'm afraid that if you are reluctant, Miss Ling will already be mad.
"Why don't you send someone to see if the princess is up, if she does, let the princess freshen up and dress up, and enter the palace with the king in a while to thank her." After King Qi finished explaining, he walked straight towards his study.
For this reluctant wedding, King Qi has already ordered someone to place a sleeping couch in the study, and some clothes and court clothes that he usually likes, and the ones placed in the new house are also some newly made, no matter what, the surface work still has to be done, and the new house does not even have a men's dress.
After a while, Lei Ming hurriedly ran to the study with a letter and a jade pendant, and almost hit the earth with Mars with King Qi, who was walking out.
"Thunder, what are you doing in such a hurry? I almost hit the prince. Chase quipped.
Lei Ming didn't care about fighting with the electric driver, if in normal times, the two of them had already started a verbal war, but today he didn't have the effort, so he had to glance at the electric lightning, and then handed the letter and the jade pendant to King Qi with both hands and said: "Lord, the subordinates let the maid go to the new house, and the maid said that the bed in the new room has not been touched at all, and the door is open, but the letter and this jade pendant were left on the table." ”
King Qi recognized the current owner of this jade pendant at a glance, this jade pendant was carved by him with the best jade, and it was the only one in the world. Looking at the graceful hairpin on the envelope, the familiar handwriting, King Qi suddenly had doubts, and quickly opened the envelope, only to see that it was written, "Since the prince refuses to marry, then why force it, the palace has returned to the palace." ”
After reading the letter, and then looking at the jade pendant, his mind quickly searched for the matter of the princess of Zhenguo, the dance of that day, and the voice like a yellow warbler, and the familiar figure, didn't give Zeng a lot of illusions, thinking that it was Yi'er who came back? If it was really Yi'er, then how could she become the princess of Zhenguo?
Thinking of this, King Qi stuffed the letter and the jade pendant into his arms, walked quickly to the stable, turned over his mount, whipped his whip and galloped, and came to the gate of the palace with a cup of tea.
The guards guarding the door were handing over their shifts, and when they saw King Qi, they all knelt down on one knee and said, "My subordinates see the prince." ”
"Get up, this king asks you, was on duty last night but Zhang Guard's class?" King Qi rode on a horse and said condescendingly.
"Back to the prince, it is his subordinates." Zhang guarded his fists and said.
"Last night, Princess Zhenguo entered the palace?"
"Yes, the princess was escorted to the palace gate by King Anjun, because the princess has the emperor is gold medal, and her subordinates will let her go."
"Well, everyone has worked hard, everyone can go to Deyue Tower to eat and drink after shifting, this king was newly married yesterday, so he held a feast in Deyue Lou for three days. Brothers, although you order casually, remember not to be greedy. King Qi said with a smile.
"Thank you Lord Wang, my subordinates wish the prince and princess a hundred years of happiness and an early birth of a noble son." The guards spoke in unison again.
Things have developed to this point, and King Qi also understands that there is only one person in the world who can have the gold medal from the emperor to avoid death, and there is only one person in the world who can save his life with his own blood when the imperial doctor is helpless, and Ling Ruohui is the only one in the world today who can leave the palace without alarming the palace guards, I am afraid that only those who are familiar with the palace inspection shifts and the best light work can do it, so many hints, why didn't he think of it.
King Qi pulled the reins again, rode his horse in the direction of Yonghua Palace, his face couldn't hide the joy, and he secretly said in his heart: "My Yi'er, it's my Yi'er who is back, don't go, this king is coming to you." ”
In front of the Yonghua Palace, the palace maids stood neatly under the corridor, and when they saw the arrival of King Qi, they saluted one after another. King Qi smiled and nodded, this smile didn't matter, so that all the palace maids blushed when they saw it.
"Miss, the prince is here." Mengchun saw the scene outside from the window, walked into the inner room quickly, and whispered to Ling Ruoxi.
"Lock the door and don't let him in." Ling Ruoyi picked up the scroll in his hand and said lightly.
The three girls glanced at each other, and Mengchun walked quickly to the door and bolted the door. King Qi stepped up the steps, gently pushed the door, and found that the door was plugged in from the inside, so he shook his head helplessly, and had to whisper: "My good princess, open the door, this king knows that he is wrong." ”
As soon as these words came out, the guards and palace maids at the door covered their mouths and snickered, I am afraid that they would never have dreamed that the god of war in the hearts of the people of Yunshang would still have the time to admit their mistakes.
"Princess? There is no princess here, the prince is afraid that he has gone to the wrong door. Ling Ruoyi's crisp voice floated out of the room.
"We just got married yesterday, why does the princess want to divorce her husband the day after the wedding?" King Qi continued to say pitifully.
Hearing a creak, the door was opened, and Ling Ruoyi wore a golden cloud smoke shirt embroidered with elegant orchids, a yellow antique double butterfly cloud-shaped thousand water skirt mopping the floor, and a Bixia Luo peony mist veil. The clouds are ethereal, wearing a hollow orchid bead hairpin, the face is as charming as the moon, and the eyes are full of anticipation and seductiveness.
When he landed, King Qi's eyes widened, and the person in front of him was not his dreaming of Yi'er, who was about to step forward to give the other party a big hug, but was pushed by Ling Ruoyi's hands, blocking his next move.
"Lord Wang, you just got married yesterday, and you are not at home with the bride, what is the reason for running to the palace?" Ling Ruoyi asked with a pout.
"Hey, it's all to blame on the king, I accidentally annoyed the princess, and now the princess has run away from home, isn't this king here to invite the lady home."
"Who's your lady?" Ling Ruoyi said angrily.
"Isn't this standing in front of this king, has this king married a second lady?"
"Hmph." Ling Ruoxuan snorted coldly, turned his head and didn't look at King Qi, this is a bad thing for him, this is the palace, he has to save face in the public, otherwise how will he, the prince, see people in the future.
"Don't be angry, don't be angry, if the lady is still angry, let's go into the room, can't this king be at your disposal?" Said like a scoundrel.
"Really?" Ling Ruoyi raised her eyebrows and asked.
"Nature is serious." King Qi said sincerely.
"That's what you said, then the palace will put a hundred needles on you and make you a hedgehog."
"Okay, everything is up to the lady." After finishing speaking, King Qi stepped forward and hugged Ling Ruohui one by one, and his eyes coldly swept to the side to watch the lively Mu'er, Mengchun and Bingyu, the three of them saw King Qi carrying Ling Ruohong into the inner room, and several people secretly covered their mouths and smiled, closed the door of the palace, and guarded the door.
In the room, the six pillars of 10,000 characters are constantly inlaid with Nanmu big beds, the red curtain tent is hanging down, and the king of Qi in the tent hugs Ling Ruohui tightly, and the two hearts that have been separated for a long time are very close to each other at this time. After a lot of clouds and rain, Ling Ruohui fell asleep in King Qi's arms, a few strands of green silk hung down on his chest, King Qi looked at the sleeping face of the person in his arms, and gently kissed her hair and forehead.
I met in my dreams a few times, and now I have made up for it, and when I remember the news of her death, I really want to accompany her like that.
Suddenly, King Qi saw Ling Ruoyi's butterfly-like eyelashes blinking slightly, and said softly: "Let's sleep a little longer, it's still early." ”
"It's not early, at this hour, the emperor should have already gone down to court." Ling Ruoyi snuggled in King Qi's arms with her eyes closed, and said softly.
"Brother Huang knows that you and I are newly married, so I don't have to go to court for the past three days." King Qi hugged Ling Ruoyi even more and said softly.
"Then we should also go and give tea to the queen mother." Ling Ruoxuan said with a wink.
"It's okay to go later, the queen mother won't mind. The good night is short, you better make up for the lovesickness of this king for more than a year. After finishing speaking, King Qi kissed Ling Ruoyi deeply again, his lips and teeth were intertwined, and the two bodies were entangled to death, as if everything was nothing, and there were only the two of them in this world.
Outside Yonghua Palace, Xia Liyan and Xia Yijie stood there, with a stinky expression on their faces, as if someone owed them a lot of money.
"Brother Huang, this King Qi, there is still no end, why haven't you come out yet? It's time to go and give tea to the Queen Mother. Xia Yijie said unhappily.
"They're newlyweds, it's inevitable." Xia Liyan said with an expression of deep understanding.
As he was talking, he saw a bright yellow figure walking slowly towards this side, and after a while, the eunuch's shrill voice came, "The emperor has arrived." ”
When everyone heard this, they knelt on the ground and said in unison: "Slaves, slaves, participate in the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor." ”
"Get up." Emperor Yuchen said with a smile. Before the early dynasty, he had already learned that King Qi had entered the palace, so as soon as he went to the early dynasty, he went straight to Yonghua Palace......
