A Poisonous Woman from a Good Story

Sure enough, within a few days, the Ministry of Rites wrote a letter saying: The preparations for the empress's wedding have almost been completed.

Zhuang Chengrong was overjoyed, he rewarded the relevant personnel heavily, and asked the Ministry of Rites to prepare for the marriage.

Wang Qing said again: "Although the queen's bedroom is repaired and maintained every year, it has not been lived in for many years. What I mean is that while there is still a period of time, it is better to repair it."

Zhuang Chengrong waved his hands and said with a smile: "No need, as long as the East Palace and the residences of the two little princes are repaired, the empress and I will live together."

Wang Qing hesitated for a moment, then said: "This is not appropriate, there is no such rule in the past dynasties, besides, the emperor will favor other palace people in the future, the empress will be inconvenient in your palace, it is better to avoid it."

Zhuang Chengrong's expression darkened when he heard the words, and he sneered, "Are you testing me?"

Wang Qing hurriedly kowtowed and said, "I dare not."

Zhuang Chengrong laughed again, and said: "You and I have worked together for many years, and you should know a thing or two about my temperament. If you have anything to say, you can just say it directly. Don't try to come and go, it will make you and my monarch and ministers unfamiliar. Yes. Did they say something next?"

Wang Qing hurriedly replied: "It is also in accordance with the etiquette rules for the emperor to accept new people, but because the queen has not yet entered the palace, no one has mentioned it for a long time. But today someone mentioned a few words."

Zhuang Chengrong smiled and said, "Why?"

Wang Qing took a look at Zhuang Chengrong, and said cautiously: "I think the emperor hasn't read the report on today's Ministry of War. The prince of Yongning Hou, Shen Zhaoying, has won many battles with the Beiman, and now there is another victory. So..."

"So for the sake of Shen Zhaoying's military exploits, I have to pamper the queen for a while, and then talk about accepting the concubine?" Zhuang Chengrong snorted coldly, and then said angrily: "Let's put aside the news of Shen Zhaoying's success first, and wait for the emperor to give up." Let’s talk about it after we get married, so as not to make him feel complacent, thinking that it is because of his military exploits that the empress can get such glory.”

Wang Qing was secretly surprised that the empress and Shen Zhaoying both came from the Yongning Hou Mansion.Naturally, everyone is prosperous. I didn't expect that it is not the same thing with the emperor.

Afterwards, Zhuang Chengrong used the pretext of being busy with his wedding and assigned all matters to the ministers to deal with. There was no matter that was vital to the life and death of the country and he was not allowed to disturb him.

All the ministers couldn't help laughing at Zhuang Chengrong in private, and it wasn't the first time the brat got married.Is it worth it?

All the ridicule was ridicule, but Zhuang Chengrong was really focused on his marriage, and this wedding also made everyone deeply understand the importance that the emperor attaches to the queen, and it became an unprecedented wedding that can no longer be imitated.

Naturally, the dowry was sent to the Marquis of Yongning, but because of Shen Qiujun's special circumstances at this time, she still got married in Prince Anle's Mansion.Therefore, the dowry purchased by the Ministry of Rites was sent to Prince Anle's Mansion.

On the day of the wedding, Zhuang Chengrong first went to the Taimiao to offer sacrifices to the ancestors of heaven and earth.Then he personally handed over the gold book of the empress to the two little princes, Brother Xu, and the two of them took the officials to Anle Palace to confer Shen Qiujun as empress.

In fact, according to Zhuang Chengrong, he wanted to personally hand over the golden book and treasure to Shen Qiujun, but no matter whether it was him or the ceremony official, the newly-appointed queen had to kneel and worship three times when accepting the canonization.Of course he doesn't want Shen Qiujun to be like this, but if they stand side by side blatantly.Afraid of making the Supreme Emperor feel uncomfortable, Zhuang Chengrong simply let his son go.In this way, Shen Qiujun doesn't have to kneel.

After receiving the canonization, Shen Qiujun was served by the palace servants and put on the queen's wedding auspicious gown according to the rules, and a phoenix crown on his head. He was immediately rich and dignified, and his demeanor was extraordinary. Everyone felt dazzled and dared not look directly at him.

Some people saw that Shen Qiujun was wearing a dark blue dress, and they couldn't help but think that when she got married, she didn't wear a red wedding dress, but a green dress, and they couldn't help but secretly marvel, maybe it was God's will to make her a queen of.

Most women dare not think that they can become queens, but for Shen Qiujun's legendary story of being favored by his husband, they are yearning for it, thinking that the green wedding dress brought her good luck, and also Moreover, Daqi also advocated Zhou etiquette, and only imperial wives with above five senses could wear green Zhai gowns, making green wedding gowns even more rare.

Later, Zhuang Chengrong understood the sentiments of the people and believed that the marriage of a man and a woman is a lifelong event, so he specially allowed the bride to wear the blue tinsel hairpin dress similar to the five-featured wife on the day of the marriage, while the man pretended to wear a red official uniform, which was not satisfied. The wish of an official. As a result, the wedding costumes of men and women will rise among the people. Shen Qiujun did not expect that he would play a leading role in it. Of course, this is a later story, so I won’t mention it for now.

Besides, after Shen Qiujun dressed up, Zhuang Chengrong didn't wait in the palace, but came to marry him in person, because Shen Qiujun didn't marry from the Shen residence, so the prince had to be the one who sent off his relatives, which made it impossible for future generations to follow suit: The prince canonize, the prince sends off his relatives, and the emperor personally welcomes him.

At that time, Shen Qiujun's glory was unmatched by anyone, and the position of empress was extremely noble, and she was so valued by the emperor, she was really envious of all the women in the world, even Li Yaoqin couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

On the contrary, Shen Qiujun was a little apprehensive, saying that it was too much, even the gods would be jealous.

Zhuang Chengrong helped her onto Feng Yu, and said with a smile: "Life is only once, so you can enjoy it, if you want to do it again, you can't do it."

The following ceremonies such as the worship hall were naturally grand and lively. After a lot of tossing, it was late at night before the husband and wife entered the bridal chamber. For those who are brooding, this time they have a chance to make amends, so naturally they should enjoy it.

In the early morning of the second day, the husband and wife offered sacrifices at the ancestral temple, and then went to pay homage to the Supreme Emperor.

The Supreme Emperor now turns a blind eye to everything that involves Shen Qiujun, knowing that Zhuang Chengrong was messing around again yesterday, but he didn't spend money from the treasury, so he had no choice but to pretend to be deaf and dumb. He told her to be diligent and courteous, and let them go.

Then Zhuang Chengrong took Shen Qiujun's hand to accept the congratulations from all the officials, and only then did he feel that he had made up for the regret of accepting the congratulations alone that day.

It was so lively for a few days before the empress's wedding was considered over. Zhuang Chengrong began to take Brother Song to deal with government affairs together, and Shen Qiujun also started to get in touch with palace affairs in an all-round way. Fortunately, after more than a year, Zhuang Chengrong almost changed everyone After all, besides the female officials and maids, there are no concubines in the palace, Shen Qiujun saved a lot of effort.

At this time, Zhuang Chengrong saw Shen Zhaoying's success report under a pile of memorials, and couldn't help laughing: "What a Shen Zhaoying, I didn't expect him to be handsome, and it took so long to make such a contribution. I want to reward him generously. Tell him that as long as he can win Beiman into a vassal again, I will make him a Duke."

When the officials heard this, they were quite upset. Even if Shen Zhaoying made Bei Man a minister again, the credit would not reach the level of being a duke of the state. Who gave him a queen sister?

At this time, there was also someone who loved to contradict the emperor, so he went forward and said: "The east has also sent good news. Li Yishu has defeated Donglin Kingdom several times. If he makes Donglin Kingdom a minister, will he also be made a Duke?"

Zhuang Chengrong seemed to hesitate for a moment, and said with a chuckle: "If that's the case, it's true that God has blessed my Great Qi Dynasty, so I will naturally be granted a title."

Everyone in the capital knew that it would not be long before two young dignitaries would be born in the capital.

After Cheng Anbo Mansion heard about it, they couldn't help being secretly happy, thinking that it was the advantage of the Shen family, but once Li Yaoqin couldn't help mentioning the appointment with Shen Qiujun in front of Mrs. Li, which made Mrs. Li say: " Don't mention this matter, you are not small, you dare to threaten the emperor and the queen, but fortunately they have honestly fulfilled their promises, and your brother's apparent credit is not enough to be a knight, fortunately there is Shen Zhaoying standing in the way Come on, otherwise this matter is really difficult to handle, don't mention anything about the agreement in the future, just treat it as being in the honor of the Shen family, otherwise there will be disasters for us."

Li Yaoqin didn't expect her mother to complain about her painstaking planning for Cheng'anbo Mansion, so she couldn't help feeling angry and rushed back to Dingguo Mansion, but met Lin Jingzhou's two concubines on the side of the road, feeling even more uncomfortable.

Besides, when Mrs. Shen heard about this, on the one hand, she was gratified that her eldest son was promising, and if Shen Zhaoying was made Duke, then the second son Shen Zhaoning would have to inherit the Marquis of Yongning. At this time, Mr. Shen Qiu Not to mention her happiness and dignity, the second daughter, Shen Xijun, was already respected in her husband's family, and now Yufu is implicated by the abolished prince. In order to make life easier in the future, she will be even more kind to Shen Xijun. In this way, only Shen Lijun will have a hard time.

Mrs. Shen felt very contradictory when she thought of the eldest daughter, and she was also angry with Shen Lijun for harming the Shen family for the sake of the virtuous king, especially for plotting against the younger daughter. Very good, as long as she is detained, I can't help feeling sorry for her again.

Today, taking advantage of entering the palace to see Shen Qiujun, Mrs. Shen couldn't help mentioning Shen Lijun. Shen Qiujun said with a smile: "Mother, don't worry about her. No matter what, she is the daughter-in-law of the royal family. Although she is detained, she can't go out freely. In fact, the government will not treat her harshly in life."

After some persuasion, Shen Qiujun saw that his mother was still unhappy, and he couldn't help sighing secretly. She is also a mother now, so she naturally understands the contradiction of being reluctant to part with the palm of her hand and the back of her hand, and said: "Well, she is always my sister. I tried to intercede for her, if nothing else, at least let her go back to see you and father."

After hearing this, Mrs. Shen said in shame: "Mother knows that this is really difficult for you. Don't worry, I will definitely persuade her. After these things, I believe she may have repented."

When Shen Qiujun was free, he told Zhuang Chengrong that his mother wanted to take Shen Lijun back to Shen's mansion. Zhuang Chengrong said with a smile: "This matter is right, if she doesn't come out and dance a few times, how can I find another chance to punish the crimes committed by the two of them?"
