Chapter 32 The Crown Ceremony
"Miss, let's hurry up and catch up at last!"

Hou Yi's "excellent" appearance attracts the eyes of passers-by, but he has been used to it since he was a child, so he can turn a blind eye and only look at the lady in front of him.

Su Zijin reined in his horse and stopped at the city gate, looking at the big words on the capital city gate, "Let's go, let's enter the city."

Su Zijin got off his horse and led the horse slowly towards the city.

At this time, Maoshi had just passed, and the city gate was very busy coming and going.Su Zijin led the horse, Hou Yi and others followed behind his lady, and lined up to enter the city.

The group of people seemed not to be trifled with, they were dusty but imposing, the city gate guards only glanced at them and let them go. After the group entered the city, they walked straight to the gate of the palace along Zhongjie Avenue.

...

At this time, in the Qiande Hall of the palace, the crowning ceremony of the fourth prince Qin Jing was being held, and the concierge sang:

"On the auspicious day of the lunar month, you will start to add yuan clothes. Abandon your young ambitions, and follow your success. Shoukaoweifu, Jieer Jingfu."

Looking at the tall and straight figure of the fourth prince under the towering steps of the main hall, everyone was solemn, but also had some unstoppable discussions.

"In a blink of an eye, the fourth prince is also an adult. I think back then, when his eldest brother was crowned, he was in the Taishe Palace. At that time, we were at the critical point of life and death. With the crowning ceremony of the eldest prince to boost people's hearts, we can make a big effort to rule the world. His Majesty ascended the throne. Times have changed, and the Eldest Prince has been there for many years. In the past, the crowning ceremonies of the princes were all simple, but this year, His Majesty finally thought about it and held a grand crowning ceremony for the fourth prince."

Hou Yongyi's words made everyone present suddenly realize that everyone seemed to have returned to the time when the eldest prince was still there and everyone followed His Majesty to work together bravely.

"Okay, let's not talk about the past. Your Majesty finally rejoiced, so let's not mention those spoilers. Our brothers are following His Majesty, and now is the time to enjoy the blessings. By the way, I heard that the fourth prince has already given a marriage, why not today see?"

Everyone was talking, and looked at the general Marquis Su Wu who was at the side.

Su Wu didn't seem to hear everyone's discussion, and concentrated on watching the appearance of the fourth prince solemnly saluting and crowning him.

Everyone saw that he was pretending to be serious, and looked in front of him. Seeing that His Majesty and the ceremony officer hadn't noticed this place, Hou Yongyi secretly lifted his foot and kicked Marquis Wu in front of him.

Marquis Wu staggered, but still relied on his extraordinary physical fitness and did not move. He stood firm, and a scorpion swung its tail like lightning, hitting Yong Yihou behind him.

"Oh!"

Marquis Yongyi snorted and was glared at by His Majesty who was sitting on the stage. He hastily corrected his expression and didn't dare to make trouble anymore, but he kept talking, and called Marquis Wu in a low voice, "Hey, old Su, what's the matter? Listen! It is said that your daughter was appointed to the fourth prince by His Majesty Jinkou, why did you not see your daughter in front of the fourth prince's coronation ceremony today, and only saw you and your wife just now?"

Su Wu stood upright in front, ignoring the courageous Hou Chengjin in the back who did not give up.Seeing that Marquis Wu in the front row was silent, Cheng Jin kept poking Su Wu in front with his hand.

Sitting high on the stage, His Majesty's forehead twitched, trying not to pay attention to the troublemakers below the stage, and only focused on looking at his fourth son, who, under the service of the ceremony officer, put on a dark dress robe and added a title.

"Jing'er is an adult today. I named you Jizhen for you. I hope you will curb your stubbornness from now on. Your ancestors will be benevolent and righteous, and you will cultivate Qi Zhiping."

The fourth prince saluted solemnly, "Although my son is not sensitive, please be respectful and cautious."

"Okay, come on, let's serve Li wine!"

His Majesty personally brought the four sons to the concierge today, and everyone respected and worshiped him even more.

"Toast Qin Guogong. If it wasn't for Qin Guogong, your father would still be farming in the fields."

"Your Majesty has defeated the evil minister."

The bearded and haired Duke of Qin waved his hands repeatedly, and Qin Jing presented the wine cup to Duke Qin, "Mr. Qin, please."

Qin Guogong couldn't refuse, took the wine cup and drank it down.

"Your grandfather doesn't need to say much, let's respect your grandfather."

The smiling Xu Guogong took his grandson's wine cup, "When it comes to the banquet later, I will also offer a cup to your mother to make her happy."

What Xu Guogong said was naturally the current queen.

Qin Jing nodded, "Naturally, I want to meet the queen mother."

After a few calm old men passed by, His Majesty personally led Qin Jing to the side of the nobles, and kicked each of them before he could speak.

"It's a lot of fun, you think I can't see?"

All the nobles avoided suspicion, "Your Majesty, it's Cheng Jin, Marquis of Courage. You know his temperament. He is very anxious. If he wants to know something, he is in a hurry and can't wait for a moment."

The emperor's tiger eyes swept across the crowd and landed on the isolated Hou Yihou.

"If there is nothing serious, I will kill you!"

Hou Yongyi shrank his neck and looked at His Majesty and the calm fourth prince behind him holding a wine cup.

"No, I just heard that the fourth prince has been married by His Majesty Jinkou, but I don't see my fiancée today, so I'm just curious."

Su Wu just took a step forward at this time, "Your Majesty, my daughter wrote a letter a few days ago, saying that she will come to attend the fourth prince's coronation ceremony, and it must have arrived by now."

"I asked you just now, why didn't you say it?"

Yongyi Hou Cheng Jin gritted his teeth, Su Wu looked over indifferently, "I just want to see you scratching your ears and cheeks in anxiety, why, no?"

All the nobles laughed when they heard this, and the corners of His Majesty's mouth also rose. At this time, the atmosphere between them seemed to be as harmonious as brothers instead of monarchs and ministers.

From Su Zijin's place, he had already entered the imperial garden through the north gate with the invitation card sent by the fourth prince early in the morning.

Today's banquet after the crowning ceremony of the four princes will be held in the open space of the imperial garden.At this time, the time has not yet come, and I saw one by one maidservants spreading flowers and blowing willows, carrying fresh and rare melons and fruits, and arranging them on the table.

Su Zijin had never been to the imperial palace before, so he couldn't tell the east from the west, from the north to the south, so he had to grab a servant girl and ask all the ladies and ladies where they were now, she wanted to rush over to meet her mother, Mrs. Chang.

"Miss, all the wives should be in the Empress's Fengyi Palace at this time."

Su Zijin looked at the sky, the sun was to the east, and it was almost noon.

"Let's go, take it to Fengyi Palace."

The little maid had no objection and obediently took the lead.

Today, the four princes' coronation ceremony, from the time of Chen, the palace gates are wide open, not only the Qiande Palace in front, but also the Queen's Fengyi Palace is crowded with people, there are always some noble ladies who can't stay in the house and come to hang out in the imperial garden.However, everyone tacitly avoided the palace banquet, just in the veranda beside it.

The noble lady in front of her should have accidentally got separated from the crowd and entered here by mistake.

Su Zijin was regarded as a lost noble lady, and was taken to the Fengyi Palace of the empress's empress, and when she walked into the palace, Su Zijin saw Nanny Lai waiting in the courtyard.

"Miss is finally here. The old slave has already borrowed a room from the palace servants. You can tidy up with me."

Nanny Lai said in a low voice, and then hurriedly took Su Zijin to the side hall where people could arrange their clothes and rest.

As soon as he entered the side hall, Su Zijin took off his riding clothes, but before he changed into the dress prepared by Nanny Lai, a salute was fired outside.

"Miss, hurry up, the crowning ceremony is over, and the banquet will start soon."
