The fifth wife wants to escape marriage: marry the princess

Chapter 150 Xiao Xuanyu's Ascension to the Throne 3
The Empress Dowager meant that the enthronement ceremony would be held five days later, but Xiao Xuanyu followed filial piety and decided to wait for the national mourning period to expire before holding the enthronement ceremony.

Today, although the enthronement ceremony has not been held, the senior officials of the court have also held a simple enthronement ceremony for Xiao Xuanyu. The real grand ceremony will be in January. At that time, foreign envoys will enter Beijing, and they will accept congratulations from all sides.

On this day, the enthronement ceremony was held in the Jinluan Hall by the elders of the court. Wushuang and all the maids knelt outside the hall to worship the new emperor. Xiao Xuanyu wore a bright yellow dragon robe with an extraordinary aura and was extremely expensive.

Without a wheelchair, he can move freely, tall and straight, wearing a dragon robe, he is a young and gentle emperor.

He stepped on the steps step by step and walked towards the dragon chair.

The moment he sat down, all the officials bowed down and shouted long live.Wushuang knelt outside, following the maids in a daze, saying: Long live the emperor, long live, long live.

Everything was like a dream. Xiao Xuanyu became the emperor. She really never dreamed that the Heng Wang who was not valued by the emperor and was disabled when she first saw him, became the emperor? !
Wushuang knelt on the ground humbly, hearing "Long live the emperor" over and over again, she suddenly felt desolate, many years ago, was the late emperor like this, sitting on the golden throne hall and being worshiped by all the officials?

Life, from prosperity to decline, may only be understood until death, but it is just a dream in a blink of an eye.

Now that Xiao Xuanyu is the emperor, what should Xiao Junyi do?Returning to the capital to submit to Xiao Xuanyu?

Wushuang didn't know what would happen to the two of them, but obviously, there was a difference between monarch and minister now.If Xiao Xuanyu harbored old hatred and wanted to get rid of Xiao Junyi, it would be a piece of cake.The more Wu Shuang thought about it, the more frightened he became. Xiao Xuanyu was the most outstanding among the princes. There is nothing wrong with him being the emperor, but how would he treat Xiao Junyi?
It's useless for Wushuang to worry, everything can only go with the flow.None of these things are out of her control.Now she is just a court lady, as humble as dust, leaving the palace is like ascending to the sky.

Through the dark crowd, Wushuang looked up at the aloof new emperor. After so many years of looking forward to it, his long-cherished wish was finally fulfilled.This road has been too long and too bitter.

When the new emperor ascended the throne, he would naturally be the emperor and the courtiers, and there was a big reshuffle in the court.

Zhang Shilang of the Ministry of War was transferred to the Ministry of Punishment, and Lian Sheng was also released from the prison to take over the position of Minister of Military Affairs. It is said that he was promoted, and he was still an important position.

There was a big reshuffle in the court, many new faces, and only then did the Queen Mother know that Xiao Xuanyu had secretly cultivated so many of his people.Among them, the most important one is General Du, the official worships the Great General, and Xiao Junyi is also still a general, Xiao Xuanyu didn't mention it much in the hall.

All the dust fell, and not long after, Concubine Shu was taken out of the Autumn Palace, and she and the queen of Fengyi Palace were both empress dowagers.This is also the first time in Daliang history that two empress dowagers appear.

Because the Queen's matter involved the royal reputation, the Queen has not been deposed, and was placed under house arrest together with the Tenth Prince for contagious diseases.As the new emperor's aunt, there is nothing wrong with respecting her as the empress dowager, but Concubine Shu is the emperor's biological mother, although it is not appropriate to be the empress dowager, but it is justified.

The Empress Dowager Zhang is respected as the Empress Dowager, and the other concubines are all concubines, who go to the Taimiao to spend the rest of their lives. Only Concubine Lan can continue to stay in Liuli Palace.

Xiao Xuanyu promised the late emperor to treat Concubine Lan kindly, so he would not break his promise.As far as the queen mother is concerned, Concubine Lan is no longer an important person. She has a new court and new battles, so she can't care about Concubine Lan.

Speaking of Concubine Lan, since the death of the former emperor, she had locked herself in the bedroom and hadn't shown up for several days. Every day, Axi only took care of everything, and even Wushuang had never seen her.

However, today the new emperor officially ascended the throne to handle the government affairs. After Wushuang finished his pilgrimage, he returned to the Liuli Palace in a proper manner.

Now, Concubine Lan, no, it should be Concubine Lan. She still lives in the Liuli Palace. Both the former emperor and the new emperor have treated her very well, but Wushuang doesn't know whether this is a good thing or a bad thing. Hi really can't tell.

Day and night, honor and disgrace, no one can tell.

The Liuli Palace was as quiet as ever, or rather dead. In the past, Concubine Lan would plant flowers and plants in the yard, or embroider flowers and play the piano.Now that the late emperor has gone, she should have been relieved, but instead became more and more depressed.

She kept saying that she hated the first emperor, hated him, and hated the palace.However, when the late emperor went, she was extra graciously allowed to leave the palace, but she did not leave the palace, she still stayed in the deep palace she hated, becoming that person's concubine.

There was no Concubine Lan in the garden anymore, Wushuang walked towards Concubine Lan's bedroom, this time Ah Xi was not there, she pushed the door and left, Concubine Lan sat by the window, embroidering something with her head bowed.

"Niang Niang, your hair..." Wushuang gasped in surprise.

Concubine Lan looked down at her gray hair, she pursed her lips and smiled. She thought she didn't care, but his departure made her beautiful and white overnight. If this is not love, then what is it? Love?

She has been unwilling to admit that she has him in her heart all her life, but can some feelings really be erased without admitting it?

It's been several days since the door was closed. It's not that this white hair is shameful, but that she wants to be alone with him quietly, without being disturbed by anyone. There are only her and him here.

As if she had gone through everything, in front of great joy and great sorrow, Concubine Lan had no ups and downs, so indifferent that it made people panic.

She waved at Wushuang, "Come and see if I embroider well."

Wushuang just watched her black hair change into gorgeous hair, and was so surprised that she couldn't move, she couldn't speak.The once gentle and charming Concubine Lan turned her head white overnight and her beauty withered.

Although that face was still beautiful, the hair that women cared most about turned gray, and Wu Shuang's heart also turned pale.

"Why, it's so terrifying when you turn white, you don't dare to approach?" Lan Fei said with a smile, stroking the hair hanging on her shoulders, and turned her head to face the mirror.The woman in the mirror has fair skin and delicate facial features. She is not considered beautiful, but Xiaojiabiyu can be called. She doesn't know what the emperor loves her. There are as many beautiful women in the harem as there are, even Wushuang She is more beautiful than her, but the emperor, why do you like her?

Love, no one can figure it out, just like she herself never understood why she who hated the emperor suddenly fell in love with him?Even now, now that she is free, she doesn't want to leave the palace!
Unfortunately, the emperor will never know that she loves him, and he will never know.Whose regret is this?whose fault?

Wu Shuang approached slowly, Lan Fei was very peaceful, she didn't cry anxiously because of her gray hair, instead she saw through the world of mortals, she was more indifferent than before.

The love and hatred between the late emperor and Concubine Lan, after the death of the late emperor, all turned into love, but unfortunately, the late emperor will never know.Why do people always have to lose before they know how to cherish and how good they are?
If we had cherished and been more frank at the beginning, we wouldn't be so separated from each other now.After torturing each other for so many years, do they finally want to continue this torment?

Wushuang could never forget the last appearance of the first emperor, he didn't want to see Concubine Lan, even though he missed her so much, he didn't want to see Concubine Lan, but he kept entrusting everyone to take care of Concubine Lan, as long as she wanted, she could go out of the palace.

In this life, don't you want someone to care about someone and love you? Once the emperor loves and cares so much, Concubine Lan will be happy after all.Even though she understood this happiness, it was too late too late.She didn't even have time to love that man well, and before she had time to say a soft word, he left her.

Wushuang stood beside Concubine Lan, even if her hair was white, she was still so beautiful!

According to her instructions, Wushuang looked carefully at the silk handkerchief she embroidered. It was an orchid surrounded by a dragonfly.Wushuang was surprised, "Why is it a dragonfly, isn't it...should it be a butterfly?"

Concubine Lan smiled, stroking the dragonfly with her slender fingers, "You don't know, Your Majesty, no, now he should be called Xianhuang. There is a word Ting in his name, which sounds the same as the dragonfly. He once said, I am the first emperor." This orchid, he is the dragonfly that never leaves, you see, how incompatible is this, yes, why is it not a butterfly? But, we have lived a lifetime like this, an incompatible lifetime..."

In love and marriage, there is no right or wrong, there is no good match, there is only persistence, and persistence in this life is enough, why bother struggling too much?

Wushuang caressed Lan Fei's hair lightly, with a heavy feeling of holding the years in the palm of her hand. The white hair carried too much, and she couldn't explain it clearly.

"Your Majesty, let this servant dye your hair!" Wu Shuang suggested softly.

Concubine Lan shook her head, "This is very good. The former emperor always said that I pretended not to be able to see the sincerity, so that's the way it is now, I am like this, I don't want to have the slightest pretense..."

Wushuang nodded, although the former emperor was gone, but Concubine Lan could see her heart clearly, which was a relief.

"The spirit of the former emperor in heaven also wished for the safety and happiness of the empress. The deceased is dead, so please don't be too sad." Wushuang persuaded, pulling up Concubine Lan's loose long hair, "servant to comb the empress's hair."

"Well, comb the moon bun."

Wushuang nodded, it was the first emperor's favorite hair accessory, Concubine Lan used to fight with him and refused to comb it.Only now dare to let go of his hands to love, no longer feel guilty, calm down in my heart, and only use the rest of my life to feel his love.

She used to be too stubborn, stubborn enough to hurt love with hatred, she never received his love, felt his love, now, alone, she has too much time to recall the past, Memories of her and him bit by bit.

It was never too late, as long as she was still alive, the past between them would never die.

Wushuang combed Concubine Lan's hair, and suddenly her lower abdomen contracted and throbbed. She hurriedly supported the dressing table, but she still couldn't stand, and the colic was unbearable.

"What's wrong with you?" Concubine Lan saw her frowning in pain, and hurriedly supported her and shouted, "Come here, come here..."

However, there were few people in Liuli Palace, and they were all outside, so Concubine Lan couldn't hear her voice, so she hurriedly helped Wushuang onto the stool and ran out.

Wushuang clutched her stomach, not knowing what was going on.During this period of time, I had a bad stomach and could not eat anything. I always thought it was a trivial matter and I didn’t see the imperial doctor. I didn’t expect it to become a serious illness, and the pain was terribly painful. She was lying on the dressing table. The transmission from the lower abdomen to the apex of the heart, did not slow down for a while, and passed out.

The night is getting darker.

Wushuang opened his eyes in a daze, not knowing how long he had slept or where he was.The only thing that was clear was that she had a long, long dream. In the dream, Xiao Junyi came back, and she was very happy. However, she opened her eyes when she was too happy. As a result, the dream came to nothing.

No one in the room is useless, it's empty.

She sat up, exhausted, looked around only to find that she was actually lying in Concubine Lan's bedroom, she was so scared that she wanted to get out of bed immediately.

Coincidentally, Concubine Lan and Ah Xi pushed the door open and said hurriedly, "Don't move around, lie down quickly."

This is Concubine Lan's bed, Wushuang, a maidservant, would not dare to lie down, but Concubine Lan stepped forward and pressed her on the bed, telling her to lie down and not move around.

Ah Xi came over with a medicine bowl and said, "Drink the medicine!"

Wushuang subconsciously said, "I'm not sick, what medicine should I take?" Saying this, she wanted to get up again.

"Lie down quickly, you are already pregnant, how can you still move around? You are really, nonsense, you have kept such a big pregnancy from us for so long!" Ah Xi scolded.
