Chapter VII: Succession Ceremony

On the third day of September 178, Shao Chong collapsed at the age of Chinese New Year's Eve.

Sheng Lianshuo succeeded King Shaochong and moved to Chengming Palace. The princess Ji Chun was half crowned Princess Shaochong and moved to Fengyuan Palace. Yu Jingtang, the side concubine of the prince, sealed the side concubine of King Shaochong and moved to the Xuanchen Palace.

The guard Fu Yao was named the commander of the guard, and the young master Cheng Zhang was named the Taishi.

At the succession ceremony, Sheng Lianshuo carried out a series of canonizations, and the rest of the officials were raised and lowered.

Twenty-seven days later, Shao Chong returned to its former order, and people continued their lives in an orderly manner.

Although Sheng Yunzhi is fifteen years old, he has nothing to do, so he either goes here all day long to hang out or go shopping outside the palace.

No, today Sheng Yunzhi went to the Chengming Hall again.

It's just that Sheng Yunzhi didn't find Sheng Lianshuo after entering the main hall, and only saw Yu Jingtang packing up his things on it.

"Sister-in-law, where's my brother?" Because Ji Chunban is Ji Ren's daughter, Sheng Yunzhi doesn't know that Ji Chunban has been used by Sheng Lianshuo, so Sheng Yunzhi, who has never had a good impression of Xu Xiu, does not plan to call Ji Chunban's sister-in-law, but regards Yu Jingtang as his sister-in-law.

"Sheng Yunzhi, you are calling people again, I will ignore you if you do this again." Yu Jingtang stopped what he was doing and walked to Sheng Yunzhi's side.

"Okay, okay, I won't call it, what about my brother, what about my brother?" Sheng Yunzhi looked left and right, but still didn't find where Sheng Lianshuo was.

"Why did you suddenly care about the king today? I see, you're coming to Commander Fu. After speaking, Yu Jingtang laughed, and her smile was meaningful.

Over the years, Sheng Yunzhi's love for Fu Yao has gradually changed from a simple childhood to a girl's ignorant love, plus Sheng Yunzhi finds Fu Yao to play with him from time to time, which is no secret in the palace.

It's just that the palace people only know Sheng Yunzhi's thoughts, and Fu Yao only respects Sheng Yunzhi and doesn't have any special attitude, so Sheng Yunzhi and Fu Yao are just the relationship between the county lord and the guards, and they are not very close.

"Sister Yu!" Seeing that Yu Jingtang was joking with Fu Yao again, Sheng Yunzhi hurriedly covered Yu Jingtang's mouth.

After all, Sheng Yunzhi didn't know what Fu Yao thought, although she called Fu Yao away from time to time to accompany her, but she knew that Fu Yao would always agree because he was the county lord.

Although Fu Yao is already the commander of the guards, he is still a guard in the end, and the guards and the county lord, naturally the county lord is the greatest.

It was precisely because Sheng Yunzhi didn't know what Fu Yao thought of her that she didn't want Fu Yao to hear these words. Because she was afraid that Fu Yao would stay away from her because of this.

"Okay, okay, don't make trouble." Yu Jingtang covered her mouth with her hand and laughed even harder.

"If Sister Yu laughs again, her teeth will fall out." Sheng Yunzhi blushed a little with shame, don't look over.

"The king and Commander Fu have gone out for some things, and they may not be able to come back until late." Seeing that Sheng Yunzhi was shy, Yu Jingtang stopped joking with Sheng Yunzhi and returned to the topic.

"Okay." Sheng Yunzhi was a little lost, and he couldn't see Fu Yao again today.

"Commander Fu is not here today, can I accompany you to pass the time?" Yu Jingtang said and took Sheng Yunzhi's hand.

"Eh, where are you going?" Sheng Yunzhi didn't know why.

After walking for a while, Sheng Yunzhi found that this was the way to Xuanchen Palace, Xuanchen Hall and Chengming Hall were not far apart, and they arrived after a while.

"Sister Yu! What are you doing mysteriously?" Yu Jingtang pulled Sheng Yunzhi to the side hall and let the palace people go down, no wonder Sheng Yunzhi was puzzled.

"It's October twenty-five now, and there are still two months, it's the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, don't you prepare something?" Yu Jingtang had the same meaningful expression just now.

"Ready...... What?" Sheng Yunzhi still didn't understand what Yu Jingtang wanted to do, and his face was full of doubts.

"Talent, gift, you idiot." Yu Jingtang knocked Sheng Yunzhi's head, looking like he hated iron but not steel.

Sheng Yunzhi seems to understand a little, but he doesn't seem to understand.

"Commander Fu will definitely be here at that time, if you don't prepare well, how can you let Commander Fu see the other side of our county lord who has captivated the country and the city, and be moved by it?"

Sheng Yunzhi's face flushed, and he stood up reflexively and looked around.

Yu Jingtang pressed her down and let Sheng Yunzhi sit on the seat again.

"What are you afraid of, I'll let them all go down, there is no one else here, and I won't let Commander Fu listen to it." Yu Jingtang seemed to understand what Sheng Yunzhi was thinking.

"I see that you should also prepare well, let my brother's iron tree bloom."

"We are different, I am married to the king. What about you, you go to Commander Fu every day, and there is no progress at all, everyone in the palace knows about it, but he doesn't know yet, can you tell me the same......"

"How different!" Sheng Yunzhi hurriedly interrupted and pursued with victory, "Don't you make any progress at all, you have said it, you are married to my brother." Besides, you dance so well, what man won't be tempted, maybe my brother will see it......"

Yu Jingtang didn't know what Sheng Yunzhi said afterwards, but when he heard the word "dance", his thoughts drifted to the banquet three years ago.

It was a banquet full of young ladies and sons of the family, and she didn't remember what it was for, it was nothing more than a talent competition.

Yu Jingtang was born in a family of military generals, her biological mother died in childbirth, her father was away all the year round, and she didn't know much about what women should learn, so she was raised by a man and taught Yu Jingtang some martial arts, so Yu Jingtang did not have the talent of her daughter's family.

At various banquets every year, Yu Jingtang is always ridiculed for not knowing talent, and this matter also spreads in the capital, which makes Yu Jingtang very sad.

Later, Yu Jingtang learned dance by himself, and also found the guidance of his master, and his dance skills have also improved significantly.

Who would have thought that a few days before the banquet, he sprained his foot while practicing dancing, and although he was not very good enough to walk, he would not be able to dance for a month.

Her name was already on the program list at the banquet, but Yu Jingtang refused to believe it no matter how she explained it, but said that her foot injury was just an excuse, and that she was afraid that she would not be able to dance well and make a fool of herself.

There was laughter at the banquet.

Just when Yu Jingtang didn't know what to do, Sheng Yunzhi came to play a zither, because Sheng Yunzhi was the county lord, those young ladies didn't dare to say anything, and they all shut up.

"Thank you, Lord County, for relieving the siege." After seeing Sheng Yunzhi finish playing a song, Yu Jingtang came to her side and thanked her.

It's just that Sheng Yunzhi pointed to another place, that is, where Sheng Lianshuo was.

"You don't have to thank me, if you want to thank me, thank my brother, he asked me to help you out of the siege." After speaking, Sheng Yunzhi pulled Yu Jingtang to find Sheng Lianshuo.

Yu Jingtang also thanked Sheng Lianshuo, but Sheng Lianshuo only nodded and didn't say anything, she thought that Sheng Lianshuo would not speak again, so she planned to leave.

"You dance very well, this son is fortunate to have seen it. It's just that you can be more confident. ”​

Since then, Yu Jingtang's dancing posture has been more open, and he also showed his style at the banquet afterwards, and he was famous in the capital.

It was also since then that Yu Jingtang secretly promised that at the age of fifteen and Lu, he begged his father to marry to Linhua Palace.

Yu Jingtang thought that Sheng Lianshuo would have some unusual feelings for her, but she didn't expect her to be wrong.

He probably didn't remember helping someone at a banquet and encouraging her.

"Sister Yu?" Sheng Yunzhi shook his hand in front of Yu Jingtang, "What do you want?" Didn't you listen to me? ”

Yu Jingtang just came back to her senses, and her eyes were still a little hollow.

"I knew you didn't listen to me, anyway, you have to be prepared!" After speaking, Sheng Yunzhi patted Yu Jingtang's shoulder, as if he had entrusted him with a heavy responsibility.

"So, what kind of gift should I buy?" In fact, Sheng Yunzhi still wants to know what to do to make Fu Yao like her, after all, Yu Jingtang is one year older than her, and he should know more than her. He approached Yu Jingtang and asked quietly.

"Let's go, I'll take you out and have a look."

In this way, the two left the palace and went outside the palace to pick out gifts for Sheng Yunzhi's sweetheart.

In fact, Yu Jingtang also knows a little about the relationship between men and women, and she doesn't know what Sheng Yunzhi should choose, so the two of them didn't pick it in the end. After returning to the palace, they didn't see Fu Yao and Sheng Lianshuo come back, so they went back to their respective dormitories and went their own way.
