Chapter 31

In March of the third year of Chongde, [-] troops gathered in Jiangbei, Linjiang Ge pointed at Jiangnan, ready to go.

Mr. Jiang turned pale with shock when he heard the news. He didn't expect that the emperor didn't care about the blood relationship, and the regent changed his normal behavior to protect the imperial power.

Voices began to appear around him urging him to take the initiative to express his position to the emperor. At first, it was a part, and gradually began to expand.Afterwards, all the big families gathered together and asked him for his opinion one after another. His old man was already in a state of desperation.

Wen Su didn't show up again, but such an indifferent attitude made everyone flustered.

Not even persuading, it seems that he came with the heart of victory.

There were more and more voices in favor of clinging to the imperial power, but Mr. Jiang never responded. Until the middle of April, Wen Su suddenly left Jinling Mansion quietly and crossed the river overnight to Jiangbei.

Since he left so quietly, he must be preparing to attack.The emperor really wants to force them to stand on his side, but he refuses to cling to the imperial power, and he wants to deal with them with the same tough methods as he used to deal with rebels!

He wandered round and round in the study, thinking about the glory of being a gentry for hundreds of years, and finally heaved a long sigh amidst the buzzing discussions outside the door, rubbed his ink and picked up his pen, The emperor wrote.

At this time, Wen Su, who was in Jiangbei, was thanking Lin Xuan who came to help him.

Secretly instructed by the Regent, and arranged by him, the local officials dispatched a group of soldiers to patrol the riverside for a period of time, and then gathered thousands of soldiers to the riverside. Specially tied wide cloaks outside the Xuanjia, lined up, fluttering in the wind, making people on the opposite side think that there are thousands of troops.

However, this team only exhibited for a few hours before retreating at full speed, as if it had gone into hibernation, ready to strike a fatal blow at any time.However, the actual situation is to avoid the other party's deeper inspection.

After all, everything is an illusion.

Different from countering the rebellion, speaking of it, this is a private matter for the emperor to concentrate his power in his hands, so it is impossible to use the army, and the emperor originally wanted Wen Su to make credit for it, so external assistance is naturally very rare.

So Wen Su can only frighten the big families by cheating.

There's nothing I can do, I'm forced to be helpless...

Not long after, the Jiangnan aristocratic family sent representatives, and the eldest son of the old patriarch Jiang came to Jiangbei with his father's handwritten letter in person, saying that he would go to Beijing with Wen Su to face the saint.

The complacency in Wen Su's heart made her almost look up to the sky and laugh, but she almost lost her temper when she heard the other party's words.

Mr. Jiang said: "I don't know what the regent means now, but my sister is still in her boudoir. If possible, why not take her to Beijing together."

His whole body was as heavy as the top of Mount Tai. Mr. Jiang looked over in puzzlement, and met Su Leng's eyes, "The regent means that my sister should choose her husband early, so don't delay!"

"Eh? Really?"

"nature!"

Mr. Jiang shrank his neck under the furious voice, and fell silent.

In May, with the fragrance of gardenia, Wen Su went back to pay homage to his father again, and set off on his way back to Beijing.

After several months together, things went smoother than she had imagined.It was also thanks to Xiao Zheng's swiftness in suppressing the rebellion before, otherwise the aristocratic family would not be so easy to let go if they had a chance to breathe.

This time, I went back to Beijing by water, and the speed was fast, and I arrived in the capital in more than January.It happened to be early summer, and the green trees were luxuriant, luxuriantly lush, exuding the unrestrained vitality of this season with extreme splendor.

The carriage stopped suddenly when it was about to enter the city, Wen Su woke up from half asleep, rubbed his eyes to lift the curtain of the carriage, but there was already a hand to grab it first.

The summer wind was blowing, and the sun was shining brightly, falling on the tall and handsome figure of the man, blending with the smile in his eyes, it was warm and refreshing.

Wen Su couldn't help laughing, helped his hand to get out of the car, stood still and saw Zhao Quan's teasing smile behind him, couldn't help being embarrassed, and asked in a low voice, "Why did you come to pick me up in person?"

Xiao Zheng took her hand and led her to walk inward, "You once said that you would watch me go out to fight, and then wait for my triumphant return. Naturally, I will treat you like this."

The satisfaction in the chest was almost overflowing, Wen Su snuggled up to him, not caring about the eyes of passers-by, and walked back with him ostentatiously.

Mr. Jiang, who was about to get out of the car to greet the regent, had already froze on the spot. So that was the case. No wonder Wen Shaofu yelled at him at that time!
The capital city was still as prosperous as before, and the people who came and went saw the style of this chariot and horse team, and they all backed away one after another, but their eyes still drifted unconsciously to the two people walking in the front.

One person is wearing Zhu Zi's deep clothes, a golden crown is high, and the majesty is self-existing, while the other is wearing a water-green underskirt, talking and laughing, and when they walk along the road together, it seems that they can no longer see other people in their eyes.

The woman said something in a low voice, her big black and white eyes were bright and lively, the man just listened quietly, occasionally frowning, and occasionally showing a hint of a smile, but the deep eyebrows and eyes were full of doting on the people around him.

The Prince Regent's Mansion has changed its appearance at some point.

Wen Su stood at the door in a daze, only to see the bright red silk hanging from the forehead, which was tied into a bouquet.

Following Xiao Zheng all the way into the mansion in a daze, there were actually many officials waiting in the vestibule, seeing the regent congratulating them one after another. He greeted him, "It can be regarded as receiving someone, why did it take so long?"

"Your Majesty, forgive me, the king and Susu were talking on the road just now, and I wasted some time."

"No matter, no matter..." The emperor waved his hand, glanced at Wen Su with a smile, turned sideways and pointed to the front of the hall, "Since everything is ready, let's salute."

"Wait!" Wen Su looked behind him, there was an incense table in the middle hall, a pair of red candles were burning fiercely, the offerings were neatly arranged, and the surroundings were also decorated with red silk, making the whole hall festive.

"This is……"

Xiao Zheng glanced left and right, with a slightly embarrassed expression, he put his lips next to her ear and said, "Can't you see? It's been delayed for a long time, and we can't delay any longer."

The little emperor snickered for a moment, then turned serious for a moment, "That's right, there was still a lot of time spent on this journey, it's not good to miss the auspicious time."

Wen Su opened his mouth in shock.No, right after I came back...

Before she finished thinking, someone behind her had put on a bright red wedding dress for her, and the magpie happily came to her and put on the phoenix crown for her, not forgetting to make fun of her, "My lord, have you been waiting for this day for a long time?"

Wen Su's face burned up, and she turned to look at Xiao Zheng, only to find that he had already put on his wedding dress.

I have never seen him wearing such a bright red color. He was originally a restrained and deep person, but now he is contrasted by this flamboyant color. , instantly took everyone's attention.

Seeing her staring at him all the time, Xiao Zheng couldn't help laughing, reached out to take the red hijab from Magpie's hand, and covered it up for her himself.Then he handed her one end of the red silk and led her to the middle hall.

The emperor was already sitting upright on the top, and someone was saluting beside the abbot, his voice was neither high nor low, calm and gentle: "One worship to heaven and earth——"

Wen Su was stunned for a moment, this voice...it turned out to be Liu Ke
She sneaked a look at him from below, she didn't wear court clothes like other officials, but just wore a green shirt as usual.It is impossible to see his expression, but listening to this voice is another blessing of relief.

"Second obeisance to the emperor—"

Wen Su followed Xiao Zheng's guidance and bowed to the emperor above, but didn't hear any movement, and only after a while did he hear him asking Fugui in a slightly flustered whisper if he wanted to hand over the red envelope, and he almost couldn't help laughing out loud.

It was really difficult for him.

After the husband and wife pay their respects, the gift is complete.Xiao Zheng led her towards the new house step by step, and the house had already begun to feast with joy and laughter.

When Wen Su heard the sound, the only emotion was that it seemed that this was the first time that the officials were so happy when she was there.

The hijab was gently lifted off, and Xiao Zheng's slightly flushed face came into view.

"I wanted to give you a surprise, so the preparation was a little hasty, don't mind."

Wen Su smiled, although she didn't wear any makeup, she was unparalleled in his eyes, "I don't mind, anyway, I told my dad before I left."

"Huh?" Xiao Zheng sat down beside her, slightly puzzled: "What did you say?"

"I said..." She deliberately dragged the key to show off, until Xiao Zheng couldn't help asking again before continuing: "I said, I have found the best man in the world for him to be his son-in-law, please rest assured. "

Xiao Zheng's expression moved slightly, he stretched his arms to embrace her, and kissed her on the forehead, "What I said to my father, mother and concubine is similar to this..."

The noise outside became louder, Wen Su pushed him, "Don't you need to go out to accompany the guests?"

Xiao Zheng glanced at her, and smiled slyly, "This king is a majestic regent, how can I condescend to go out to drink with others."

"Uh, but His Majesty is outside."

"Today he is a junior, so he should respect me as an uncle."

"Well, then you don't plan to go out, do you?" Wen Su turned her head, "It's still daytime..."

"It's okay, it'll be dark soon."

"..."

Cigarettes curl up in the house, and it is very peaceful.After drinking a cup of wine, the two hugged each other and talked by the bed, babbling endlessly.I didn't finish talking about Jiangnan on the road just now, so I just continued at this time.

It was getting dark, and soon the most lively dinner party in the mansion had begun. It seemed that the number of guests had increased, and a new wave of noise had begun.

Suddenly, the explosion of fireworks came from a distance. After this sound, the sound of firecrackers and fireworks sounded one after another, which was even more lively than New Year's Eve.

Wen Su walked to the window, opened the window and took a look, bursts of fireworks bloomed brilliantly in the air, in all directions, the dense light made the sky as bright as day.

"What's going on? It seems to be celebrating for you and me."

Xiao Zheng embraced her behind him, nodded with a smile, "You are right, it is indeed for you and me to congratulate, His Majesty also issued an edict of amnesty for the world, and the whole world celebrates together."

Wen Su was surprised, "Isn't this the same as the emperor's wedding, why are you rushing to prepare?"

"It's really hasty, I want to give you something better, let the whole world know about your marriage."

His voice is close to the ear, soft as if to lull people into a dream.Wen Su turned her head and took the initiative to kiss his chin, "This is enough..."

There was a sudden pause in his voice, and his kisses followed closely, spreading densely from the corner of his forehead to his lips.

He didn't know when the window was closed by him, and he didn't know when the person was hugged into bed by him.The tent hangs lightly, and soft words whisper, a moment of spring night is worth a thousand gold, how can I live up to it?

In far away Pingyang, someone held a cup of wine at the top of the building and wished the moon phase.

Nung, moon and new moon……
