Passing by here, the queen enters the palace today. According to the rules, when the queen enters the palace, she has to go to the main hall to be enshrined and worshiped by all the officials, but Sima Bo is standing here waiting, and all the officials dare not go to the Qiankun Palace. here.

At this time, someone said softly: "Prime Minister, look, the emperor attaches great importance to the empress, and even waits here in person, which shows that the emperor has a deep affection for the empress!" The person who spoke was Lu Hui, Minister of Military Affairs. Feng Li Dong is the Prime Minister of the Right, Feng Mo is the Prime Minister of the Left, Li Dong is the head of civil servants, and Lu Hui is the empress dowager's nephew. Empress Lu Jiao, after the death of Sima Bo's mother concubine, Sima Bo has been taken care of by the queen mother Lu Jiao. Lu Jiao's child.

"Haha, that's right, Master Lu, you don't know yet! The little girl and the emperor were in love with each other when the first emperor was still alive. No, it was the empress who was already with the emperor when the first emperor was still alive. The two love each other, now the emperor and the empress are lovers and get married," Li Dong stroked the beard of his chin, with a gratified and proud smile on his face, his daughter is the most talented woman in the world, only Sima Bo is worthy of it For his daughter.

"Is that so? How did you hear that the emperor is in love with the imperial concubine? Prime Minister Li said that the emperor and the empress are in love with each other. Could it be that the rumors are wrong?" This is a young man, he looks On the 27th, this man is handsome, fresh and handsome, and he is a rare handsome man. He is Chu Wensheng, a university scholar, who has always been at odds with Li Dong. Hearing Li Dong's bragging, of course he will not show mercy.

"You," Li Dong glared at Chu Wensheng angrily. He wanted to get angry, but because of Sima Bo's presence, he held back.

But Xue Hu, who had been standing by the side, spoke at this critical moment, "My lords, you must know who the emperor is in love with, and you will know later. We should not be talking about the emperor's affairs." Let's discuss it here! If it accidentally got to the emperor's ears that day, will the emperor be unhappy," he said to the point, everyone was silent, and no one dared to discuss it.

Another quarter of an hour later, the sound of beating gongs and drums came, and everyone smiled. Sima Bo was wearing a dragon robe, and he still had no expression, but his sharp black eyes were shining with excitement. Since he came to the throne, he has been busy with state affairs every day, and there are too many things that he can't handle at once. He has never had time to see Qiao Xi. Today, he specially ordered Qiao Xi to arrive a moment earlier than Li Jingsu. You can see Qiao Xi, and want to explain to Qiao Xi face to face why he married Li Jingsu, explain his difficulties, his last resort, and the reason why he came here to wait is to wait for Qiao Xi, the one who shared weal and woe with him. life and death.

After a while, an eunuch ran over, knelt down in front of Sima Bo and said, "Your Majesty, the queen's phoenix will be here soon."

Sima Bo didn't react much after hearing this, he just frowned, and then made a gesture to make the eunuch stand up, the eunuch immediately retreated to the side, and after a while, the queen's phoenix driver came in a mighty manner, carrying The people in the sedan chair and the wedding party saw all civil and military officials and Sima Bo waiting here, they immediately stopped, put down the sedan chair and knelt down together and said in unison: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

At this time, the maid beside the red sedan chair opened the curtain of the sedan chair and helped Li Jingsu out. Li Jingsu was wearing a bright red phoenix robe with golden phoenix embroidered on it, which was exactly the same as Qiao Xi's, except that Qiao Xi's wedding dress was not seen. She was supported by the maid step by step, and walked slowly towards Sima Bo. Although her head was covered with a hijab, it could be seen from her slender figure and graceful movements that she was a rare beauty.

She walked up to Sima Bo and knelt down, "My concubine pays respects to the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live, long live, long live, long live my emperor," her voice was like an oriole, with a soft and sweet voice that made people's hearts flutter.

Sima Bo looked at the person kneeling in front of him. He took a step forward, bent down to help Li Jingsu up, stretched out his hand to lift the hijab on Li Jingsu's head, then took Li Jingsu's hand, turned around and walked towards the Qiankun Hall, and the ministers behind him also followed suit. follow immediately.

Before Sima Bo had gone far, Qiao Xi's sedan chair also arrived at the place where Sima Bo was standing just now. Qiao Xi lifted the curtain beside the window of the sedan chair and saw Sima Bo holding Li Jingsu's hand, and Li Jingsu looked at Sima Bo shyly. Bo, the two walked towards Qianqing Palace intimately, followed by civil and military officials.

Qiao Xi felt a stabbing pain in her heart, as if someone had stabbed countless knives in her heart. The moment she lowered the curtain, tears flowed down the corners of her eyes. Could it be that she got too much?Could it be that she is too happy?She has the selfless love of her parents, she has Yufeng's unreserved love, is it because God is jealous of her too happy life, jealous of her getting too much love, making her suffer in this era, let her come to this era Abandoned, yes, abandoned, she feels abandoned now, she has followed Sima Bo for several years, thinking that the two of them are irreplaceable in each other's hearts, but now she understands that she was wrong , and it was outrageously wrong, she was thinking too naively, how long can the love of kings last since ancient times!She touched the tears on her face with her hands, telling herself not to be sad, not to be sad for a person who is not worthy of her love, but the more she thought about it, the more her heart ached, and she shed more tears. At this time, the quiet and sweet voice came from It's coming from outside.

"Niang Niang, we are here," You Jing finished speaking, and then slowly opened the curtain of the sedan chair, and gently helped Qiao Xi get off the sedan chair.

The gate of Wenxi Palace was opened, and there were more than a dozen court ladies and eunuchs standing at the door. When they saw Qiao Xi getting off the sedan chair, they immediately knelt down and bowed down: "Servants, servants see the imperial concubine, the empress is a thousand years old, a thousand years old." Qiao Xi couldn't see their appearance, It can also be heard from the voice that they are all young people. She made a gesture for them to get up, and then continued to walk in.

The ground of Wenxi Palace is covered with red carpets, and the inside of the gate is full of fiery red flowers, all of which are unknown flowers. On the master, on the windows, and on the walls, big red flowers and red lanterns are hung everywhere. When Qiao Xi came to the palace, the decoration inside was even more resplendent. The big red silk curtain and the bead curtain at the door were all made of sparkling crystals. Walking through the bead curtain, there was an exquisite big bed, and the big red quilt on the big bed It was embroidered with peonies, and there was a bottle of chrysanthemums on the cabinet next to the bed. Qiao Xi liked chrysanthemums, so it could be seen that this was specially prepared for Qiao Xi. Of course, Qiao Xi couldn't see it. She was quietly supported and sat on the bed. All the eunuchs The palace maid also came in to wait on Qiao Xi.

Seeing so many of them in the room quietly, she knew that Qiao Xi must have something to say, "Go down first! Do what you have to do," she ordered with her head held high.

All the maids and eunuchs bowed to Qiao Xi and said, "Yes, the servants are right outside the door. If the empress has something to do, please tell the servants." After they finished speaking, they all withdrew, and the last maid closed the door.

After quietly watching the door close, she turned around and saw that Qiao Xi had lifted her hijab, and she was already sitting on the table eating something on the table, "I've been hungry for a whole day. In your age, being a bride is too hard. You tormented to death, and starved to death," Qiao Xi grabbed a peanut and chewed it in her mouth.

Seeing Qiao Xi's actions, You Jing shook her head helplessly, walked up to Qiao Xi and said, "Mother, why did you take off the hijab again? Didn't I tell you?"

"What did you say? Is it unlucky to lift the hijab by yourself? If I don't do it myself, then who will do it for me, you? Or should I sit on the bed and wait for three to five days until Sima Bo and I are together?" His queen's love is enough to think of me, come and lift my hijab," Qiao Xi didn't wait for You Jing to finish speaking, and then continued You Jing's words, she was very dissatisfied with You Jing now, and her tone of voice was not as gentle as before.

You Jing was speechless for a while when Qiao Xi said it. She knew in her heart that Sima Bo would definitely not come tonight. Since she had nothing to say, she simply said nothing and stood obediently beside Qiao Xi.

"What? Stop talking. If you hadn't teamed up with them to lie to me, I would have left a long time ago. Would I still marry into the palace?" When Qiao Xi remembered what happened last night, she became angry. You Jing actually used bitter tricks Lie her out, and now she regrets it when she thinks about it, she shouldn't be soft-hearted for a while, it's even more difficult to leave now.

You Jing lowered her head, no matter what Qiao Xi said?She didn't even open her mouth, who told her to lie to Qiao Xi!Qiao Xi hasn't talked to her since she came back, as long as Qiao Xi is willing to talk, she will feel better.

Qiao Xi picked up a piece of delicious-looking braised pork with her chopsticks, but she spit it out as soon as she put it in her mouth, "How is this raw! Did you see me new in the Quiet Palace?" Yes, you actually gave me raw food, you go and call me in from outside, I want to see who is so brave, although Sima Bo is not coming tonight, but I am still the imperial concubine anyway, they all I don't want to live anymore." She just ate a raw peanut, and she was unhappy, but now she is so hungry that all she eats is raw, can she not be angry?Of course, what Qiao Xi herself didn't know, and what she didn't want to face, was that she was angry with Sima Bo. Adding all these together, she was of course furious.

You Jing watched Qiao Xi get so angry, she suppressed a smile and said: "Mother, of course these are raw, raw means many children and grandchildren, this is the rule," she pointed to the dishes on the table, and then poured a cup Give the wine to Qiao Xi.

Qiao Xi took the wine glass, took a sip, and the next second she was coughing, "Why is it wine? I didn't even let myself live, and I didn't even drink water." She was really speechless, Faced with such a wedding, she was really terrified of the ancient women, and she was born in it. Her face turned cold when she thought of this. When will she return to the 21st century!

"Your Majesty, don't be in a hurry, the maidservant is going to prepare food for you now, you can wait patiently later!" You Jing couldn't bear it anymore, seeing Qiao Xi starving, she turned and went out to ask the maidservant to get some food.

After You Jing went out, Qiao Xi was the only one left in the room. She saw that the whole room was covered in bright red, and a sad smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. A wedding without a groom seemed ridiculous to her, but Sima Bo was in the room now. what to do!
