marry a princess

Chapter 7
The solemn and solemn meeting hall was silent.The emperor was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe and sitting on the dragon chair, frowning, staring at the few memorials that had just been handed over in the morning on the table, the content of which was the same.The eunuchs and maids on both sides of Hou were silent like cicadas, not daring to take a breath.

Yuan Hongyi stood still, looking at the emperor with a sneer in his eyes.Bai Ziwan knelt down and kowtowed respectfully to Yuan Haochu, "My daughter-in-law pays homage to the emperor, and wishes the emperor's body to be in good health."

The emperor suddenly raised his head, his face sank like water, and stared at Yuan Hongyi fiercely, then threw a few memorials at him, gnashing his teeth, "If there is such a villain, where did I come from? How can I be healthy?" ?”

Bai Ziwan raised his head suddenly, and saw the memorials draw graceful arcs in mid-air, and landed at Yuan Hongyi's feet one after another.She was dumbfounded, obviously she didn't expect such a scene when meeting her father-in-law for the first time.As for Yuan Hongyi, as if he had never heard of it, he bent over and picked up the memorial and glanced at it.With a cold smile, he raised his head and met the emperor's wide, angry eyes without fear.

"You..." The emperor pointed at the disapproving Yuan Hongyi with trembling hands, took a sip of the tea on the side, and ordered Yu Liansheng, "I have something to say to King Ning Qing, you send Princess Ning Qing Ningshou Palace pays respects to the Empress Dowager."

Bai Ziwan answered yes, kowtowed to the emperor again, got up, and followed Yu Liansheng to the outside of the meeting hall.

"Miss," Yun Xiang greeted her, stretched her neck and glanced into the meeting hall, "why didn't the prince come out together?"

Yu Liansheng bowed his body, smiled all over his face, and said respectfully, "Please, Princess Ningqing."

I thought that the Great Zhou Palace, which had never been recorded in history, would be different from what I saw on TV, but the result was still the same.The long corridor seems to have no end, it is quiet and silent, but it is depressing.

The imperial palace enjoys inexhaustible splendor, wealth, and supreme rights. How many people hope that one day they can enter the imperial palace.Men hope to become prosperous and prosperous, while women hope to fly on the branches and become phoenixes. However, only those who have experienced it will know that the seemingly glamorous palace is actually full of murderous intentions. killed.

"The old slave has to go back to the meeting hall to serve the emperor, so I won't send the princess in." Yu Liansheng stopped and bowed to Bai Ziwan.

Bai Ziwan thanked her and glanced at Yunxiang.Rue Xiang understood, took the ingot of silver and put it in Yu Liansheng's hand, but Yu Liansheng pretended to delay, then happily put the silver into his sleeve, saluted again before turning and leaving.

Before entering Ningshou Palace, I heard voices coming from inside.

"The third sister-in-law really saw the fifth sister-in-law?" The eighth princess Yuan Rouyi held Lin's arm and looked at her brightly. "Is the fifth sister-in-law really as good-looking as the rumors?"

Mrs. Lin nodded, "That's true, unfortunately..." Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Lin shook her head with regret on her face.

"What's the pity?" Yuan Rouyi said, "Fifth brother is also very handsome, does the third sister-in-law think that the fifth brother is not good enough for the fifth sister-in-law?"

"It's not like you don't know the temperament of our fifth younger brother..." Second Princess Zeng paused, looked around, and whispered, "Before entering the palace, I met Mo's mother from Tianxiang Tower. Guess I heard her What did you tell others?" His expression was full of mystery.

Yuan Rouyi shook Zeng's arm, and said coquettishly, "Good sister-in-law, don't let us guess the riddle, please tell me what mother Mo said."

The others nodded in agreement.

"She said..." She stopped suddenly, and Zeng stretched her neck to take a look inside, and said in a low voice, "Mother Mo said that on the night of the fifth brother's wedding, the fifth brother stayed in Tianxiang Tower until dawn. I've been in Tianxiang Tower all the time, and I didn't go back until very late."

"What?" Everyone was surprised.

"Keep your voice down, it won't be good to be heard by the emperor's grandmother." Zeng blamed, and then glanced into the room to feel relieved.

"Second sister-in-law, maybe what you said is serious?" Lin's face showed worry, but she had already smiled gloatingly in her heart.

"The fifth younger sibling is also a pitiful person." The fourth concubine, Mrs. Pond, said in a low voice, as if she was talking about others, but also about herself.

Bai Ziwan laughed mockingly, because she was afraid that she would become the laughing stock of others, so she cut her hand, but now...if the queen knew that Yuan Hongyi hadn't returned all night, but a nanny handed her the Yuan handkerchief, what would happen again? What a disaster.

"What do you want to do?" Quickly grasping Yun Xiang who was going inside, Bai Ziwan smiled and shook her head, "Don't worry, I'm fine." Even this little blow can't bear it, she is not Bai Ziwan, let alone waste She has lived for more than twenty years.

"Huh? Isn't this Princess Ningqing?" Mother Xi looked at Bai Ziwan in surprise, and then she understood, "The Empress Dowager has come out of the Buddhist hall, so Princess Ningqing should go in and pay her respects to the Empress Dowager." He raised the curtain and invited her in.

The empress dowager was dressed in fine clothes, and she was sitting on the upper couch with a kind face. The room smelled of sandalwood, which was fresh and elegant.Bai Ziwan just pretended that she didn't hear anything, she walked up to the Empress Dowager with a smile on her face, knelt down, and respectfully kowtowed to the Empress Dowager.

Said loudly, "Yingying pays respects to the imperial grandmother, may the imperial grandmother be blessed and healthy, and live a thousand years and a thousand years."

The Empress Dowager asked Nanny Xi to help Bai Ziwan up, and beckoned, "Come closer, so that the Empress Dowager can take a better look."

Bai Ziwan walked up to the Empress Dowager according to her words, shielded the eyes behind her that were staring at her, and smiled at the Empress Dowager.

The empress dowager looked Bai Ziwan up and down, nodded herself, and took off a blood jade bracelet from her wrist and put it on Bai Ziwan, "This bracelet was a birthday gift given to Ai's family by the first emperor, and now Ai's family is still alive. The family will give it to you, and hope that you and Hongyi will sing in harmony and grow old forever."

His eyes seemed to be unintentionally glanced at other people. Don't think that she doesn't know anything because she stays in Ningshou Palace all day, and don't think that she doesn't know what they said just now because she is worshiping Buddha in the Buddhist hall.She just wanted to let some people know that no matter how Hong Yi was, he was still her most beloved grandson, and she was her favorite grandson-in-law. As long as she was an old woman, she would never allow anyone to hurt them in the slightest.

Bai Ziwan wanted to refuse at first, but who knows how long she and Yuan Hongyi have been together, maybe she will run away if she gets upset tomorrow, and never come back again.However, when she saw the empress dowager's eyes looking at her, she was slightly stunned, knelt down and kowtowed to thank her.

Seeing Bai Ziwan get up, all the younger ones stood up, and the maids rushed over to salute.

"The Empress is here."

Following a notification, a woman in a crimson dress held the maidservant's hand and hurried in from the outside to salute the empress dowager.The others hurriedly stood up to greet the ceremony.

"Queen, this is..." Seeing the panicked expression on the queen's face, the empress dowager asked.Faintly felt that something happened.

"Mother, please go to the meeting hall to have a look." The queen glanced at Bai Ziwan, and said anxiously, "The concubine just went to the meeting hall to find the emperor, but heard the emperor and Hongyi quarreling inside, and the emperor said Kill Hongyi."

The empress dowager's expression changed when she heard the words, she took Ximao's hand, got off the couch, and hurried to the outside of Ningshou Palace.
