The Second Marriage of a Passionate Monarch: Princess Chongxi

Chapter 52
"Why didn't I hear you say it before, but I'm so eager today?"

Concubine Li took her seat, and immediately a maid handed her some tea, she took a sip, "Mother and Concubine can't help you with this, the marriage between King Chen and Su Qingning was requested by the Empress, and the Emperor agreed, even the Empress Dowager couldn't do anything about it. We just need to choose a day to issue a decree to complete the marriage."

"Isn't the decree not announced yet? In this way, my minister will still have a chance!"

"It's useless for you to force me like this. There are so many good girls in the world, why not choose Su Qingning? A sick child, which mother wants such a daughter-in-law? Anyway, now King Chen offends the queen mother and even the prince for Su Qingning, Wouldn't it be better for them to fight with each other while we reap the benefits of the fisherman?"

"Mother, you don't know something."

An Yunce was about to speak, but suddenly closed his mouth, looked around vigilantly, and ordered, "You all back down!"

Concubine Li signaled that all the maids and servants should step down.

An Yunce stepped forward and said in a low voice, "I heard that a fortune teller told Su Qingning's fortune a few years ago, saying that she has the personality of a queen, and whoever marries her will rule the world. The Su family has been hiding it, and so have I I just found out today."

"Empress? Could it be groundless!"

"It's better to believe that there is something than nothing! The daughter of the Su family, after several generations, it is not surprising that she has the personality of a queen!"

"It's no wonder that King Chen didn't hesitate to fight against the Queen Mother and insisted on marrying Su Qingning. That's the original intention. Heh, I thought the royal family had a strange flower, and they only love beauties and don't care about worlds!"

Concubine Li teased a bit, but she didn't intend to get involved in this muddy water, "Ce'er, don't worry about this matter, just pretend you don't know."

"How could it be possible that you don't know? If this drags on, the world will become someone else's. The crown prince is the emperor, and his sons have nothing to say, but what is King Chen? If it wasn't for his mother's secret deceit, how could the mother and concubine do it?" Lost the empress position? Don’t you want to be the empress dowager? If you bear it so much, you will lose the empress throne yourself, and you want your son to lose the throne?”

"You are presumptuous, a concubine prince, if you say such things, you are not afraid of losing your head!"

After being yelled at by Concubine Li, An Yunce didn't dare to do anything wrong, "My son made a slip of the tongue, mother and concubine calm down."

"Retire, Su Qingning is short-lived, not suitable for you!"

"My son doesn't mind!"

"But I don't mind!"

"What about Tong Weiyang? Mother and concubine won't object, I heard that she has been deeply loved by the emperor recently."

"Her?" Li Fei's eyes turned cold, "Try to touch her!"

"Who is she?"

"Why should Ce'er care about an insignificant person. The mother and concubine will not stop Su Qingning's matter, you can do it yourself!"

Concubine Li's nod made An Yunce very happy.

But, Tong Weiyang, who is she, why can she let Concubine Li compromise?
"Thank you mother!"

An Yunce Xie En went out, Concubine Li leaned on the table with a gloomy expression.

Everyone knows that 16 years ago, Empress Su died of illness. After the three concubines fought, Concubine Lin's Concubine Li was defeated and lost the throne.

However, they only know one, but not the other.

In that year's struggle for succession, some people paid the price with their lives.And she, not only lost the post, but also the years of sisterhood!

Wei Young came to Yanjing in early spring, and now, spring is almost over, and due to the Queen Mother's unwell body, An Yunhao's wedding has been postponed again and again.

However, no matter how procrastinated, the happy event still has to be done.

It was initially set on May [-]th, the wedding of King Chen.Because the imperial decree is a bit cumbersome, it will take some time before it can be issued.

The day was decided, and the marriage was in full swing.

Even if the Su family likes the crown prince, but Su Qingning is not, there is nothing they can do.

After all, this girl is not in good health, and she is their only daughter, so everything can only be left to her.

Dresses, dowry, jewelry. Su Qingning did her work carefully, even Wei Young's dowry clothes were delivered, crimson, very festive.

Now, all the preparations are in place, and the only thing left is half a month later, when the bridal sedan chair arrives to welcome the bride.

Every year on May [-]rd, as usual, the emperor will entertain hostesses from all over the world, and everyone will gather together to enhance friendship.

This year is no exception.

But since King Chen's wedding was coming soon, the emperor couldn't find time to prepare a banquet for his orders, so he decided to hold a big party, entertaining the protons, as well as the royal family, nobles and ministers of the court.

This kind of gathering is not considered a palace banquet, it is extremely casual, just for fun.

Because of Concubine Li's instruction, Wei Young was invited.

In the past few months, Wei Young and Concubine Li have participated in many banquets in the palace, large and small.

Only this time, she was overjoyed.

Because, this time the protagonist is Proton and also Ming Yi!

After dressing up, Gao Tianqi rushed out of the room as he was about to go out, "I want to go too!"

Wei Young glanced at him, the women's clothes were already put on, and she couldn't help but scornfully said, "You are addicted to pretending to be a woman! If that mouse finds out, you will really die this time."

"It's okay, I brought Dongdong."

Gao Tianqi hugged the white cat and smiled wryly, "It's only natural for a cat to catch mice!"

Looking at his greasy smile, Wei Young instantly petrified, was stunned for a while, raised her hand and patted Gao Tianqi's shoulder, approvingly said, "Good job, bring it, let's go!"

This time, the banquet was held in a different location, not in the Imperial Garden, but in the Guangying Hall.

But where is Guangying Hall?

Wei Young came late, Concubine Li had already gone first, and she led Gao Tianqi to run around in the palace.At a corner, I happened to see a woman in orange clothes leading two court ladies passing by.

"Wait a moment."

Wei Young chased after her in a hurry, Gao Tianqi saw that it was the princess from last time, so she was so frightened that she hurriedly dragged Wei Young back.

"What are you doing?" Wei Young frowned.

Ruying turned her head when she heard the sound, but she didn't speak. The maid at the side stepped forward and asked, "What's the matter calling my princess?"

"Princess?"

Wei Young was taken aback, thinking of Zi Wan, she didn't have a good impression of the princess.

However, since the Imperial Palace is her home, it shouldn't be a problem to ask where the Guangying Hall is!

Wei Young ignored the maid, but asked Ruying directly, "Dare to ask the princess, how to get to Guangying Hall?"

"Are you going to Guangying Hall too?"

"Yeah, yeah, you're going too? In which direction?"

"But I won't leave." Ruying said helplessly.

"Aren't you a princess, how could you not know?"

"Who told you that I am the princess of Yin country?"

Wei Young really wanted to roll her eyes, and asked patiently, "Then you."

Ru Ying said proudly with her hips crossed, "I am Princess Liang! What about you, who are you?"

She looks domineering, her jade hand is almost on Wei Young's nose.

"Me?" Wei Young didn't want to lose face, pointed at the top arrogantly, and said every word, "Flying Immortal!"

Gao Tianqi and Ruying were speechless for a moment, and the wind was chaotic.

"Awesome, be afraid!" Wei Young proudly pulled Gao Tianqi over, "Since you don't know, then leave."

"Anyway, everyone doesn't know, so let's go together!"

Ruying followed, mainly because the white cat was so cute that she wanted to pet it.

Wei Young was reluctant, worried that the crowd would expose Gao Tianqi's identity.

But Ruying was like a follower, unable to drive her away, and finally took the opportunity to take her Dongdong away.

"Wow, so obedient and cute." Ruying hugged the cat and walked forward while petting it.

The identity of the follower was immediately changed, Wei Young chased after Ruying, "Give me back the cat, hey"

"Let's play, why are you so stingy!"

Ruying made a grimace, "ravaged" her dongdong, Weiyang was so angry that she scolded Gao Tianqi, "What's wrong with you, you can't even look at a cat, and a little girl snatched it from your hand, you throw it away!" Isn't it embarrassing?"

"A man and a woman can't kiss each other, she touched my hand." Gao Tianqi looked aggrieved.

"I really want to take off your fake skin, it's disgusting to me."

Gao Tianqi smiled badly, "Come on, I don't mind!"

"Looking for death!" Wei Young punched him, and the Lion roared, "Hurry up and find my cat!"

"I'll look for the cat later, it's time to go to Guangying Hall first."

Gao Tianqi dragged Wei Young around, and finally learned the exact location of Guangying Hall from a court lady.

When the two ran away panting, Eunuch Zhang had been waiting outside the hall for a long time, "Why are you here now?"

"There was a small incident on the road, but it's all right now."

Wei Young's face was flushed from running, Eunuch Zhang looked at Gao Tianqi behind her, and felt that "she" was both strange and familiar, "This is"

"My girl, haven't you met Eunuch before?" Wei Young pressed sloppy eyes, and urged, "Is the dinner party starting yet? Let's go in quickly!"

Eunuch Zhang didn't care about other things, so he quickly led the two of them in quietly.

There are three places below Li Fei, one for Aster, one for An Yunce, and the other for Wei Young.

It's a pity that she came late, and she didn't dare to rush forward to disturb her, so she had to find a random place to sit down below, while Gao Tianqi sat on the small stool behind her.

Wei Young looked around, and sure enough, she saw Ming Yi, sitting in the crowd in a white paulownia brocade dress, even if she lowered her head, she couldn't conceal the nobleness and uniqueness of her body.

Su Qingning and An Yunhao were sitting on top of Ming Yi's left hand. In the past, they would sit on both sides. The Queen Mother didn't come today, and they were about to get married, so they didn't have too much etiquette, so they sat casually.

Su Qingning gave An Yunhao some snacks, and took good care of her, just like a good wife and mother.

Su Qingning still got her love, even if she was an enemy of her family, she still did it.The queen mother was very angry with her, and had ignored her for a long time, but with An Yunhao around, she was still a happy little woman.

"Sorry, Ruying is late."

Someone ran in recklessly, Gao Tianqi laughed softly, "Yang Yang, she is a reckless person just like you."

Wei Young looked up and saw that it was the little princess just now, she couldn't help saying angrily, "My cat!"

It didn't matter what he shouted, it actually attracted everyone's attention.

Wei Young was very embarrassed, Ming Yi heard her voice, and found her location accurately, that warm smile made her feel at ease.

Ruying honestly sent the cat over, turned her head and said to the emperor, "Ruying wants to sit with her."

The emperor's face was gentle, "The princess is free."

Ru Ying sat down happily, Wei Young hugged Dong Dong, frowned and said, "Why are you relying on me?"

"I like your cat!" She said innocently.

"This is my baby, I can't give it to you!" Wei Young cut off her thoughts, she was relentless, "Then let me touch the head office!"

"All right!"

Wei Young couldn't refuse in the end, although Ru Ying is a princess, she is a bit arrogant, but she is much more simple than Zi Wan, her eyes are also very pure, when holding Dong Dong, she is so cautious, Wei Young's heart also softens.

"Are you a proton too?" Wei Young's tone softened.

Ruying touched the dongdong and pouted, "That's not true, our country of Liang is a big country, so we don't need any proton, I'm here to marry."

She said lightly, Wei Young was surprised, "Do you know what marriage is?"

"of course I know!"

"Willingly?"

"I'm still willing to volunteer! Marriage is beneficial to the diplomatic relations between the two countries, the country and the people, why not do it?"

Wei Young was dumbfounded, she didn't know if she was brainwashed, or if she really had feelings for the country and the people.But no matter what kind, Wei Young admires it, at least, she can't do it herself!
