Chapter 204 The Empress Dowager's Congratulatory Gift

Shen Xinniang looked sideways at the woman in red in the Linghua mirror.

Black and white eyes, light and graceful smile, live up to this exquisite clothes.

"Well, I laughed." She nodded and said slowly.

There is not a big smile, it seems that it is still far away from smiling freely, and it is very long, but the life I just found is also very long, and it is just the beginning, isn't it?

The new princess was supported and came out of the courtyard.Slowly step into the hall full of guests.

Everywhere he went, there was silence and astonishment.

Everyone looked at the figure with a touch of red, and they were all amazed.

The hall, which was originally full of voices, immediately became quiet the moment she stepped into it.The guests all stared wide-eyed, and their eyes fell on her infatuatedly.Regardless of the men's or women's tables, no one made the slightest noise.It was as if he was afraid that he would offend the beautiful woman and destroy the beautiful scenery at this moment.

Fang Yan, who was dressed in a bright red auspicious blessing, had a very radiant eye, and approached her step by step, raised his hand to hold her hand, "Xin'er."

The two of them clasped their hands and walked towards the throne step by step. No matter whether they were envious or jealous, no one could deny that this pair of Bi people was really a good match.Talented and beautiful, unrivaled.

Fang Yan led Shen Xiniang to the main seat, regained his composure, and glanced at all the guests.

In the huge hall, it was almost audible to drop a needle, and even the voice he cleared his throat was extremely clear, "Today is my great joy, and I made Xin Niang, the Shen family, the princess. No excuses."

His eyes focused on her fair and flawless face, looking at her black and white pupils, looking at his clear and solemn reflection in her eyes.

"Xin'er, my wife." He muttered slowly.

Shen Xinniang also raised her head and looked at him intently, a slight smile appeared on Jumei's face when she heard the words.

Like a tender flower just blooming, full of youth, in an instant, the whole hall seems to be darkened, only her face is smiling, bright and dazzling.

Only her light smile and her delicate face remained in his eyes.

"The Empress Dowager's reward has arrived—" A loud voice sang outside the door, destroying the unparalleled beauty at this moment.

Even the guests other than these two showed complaints and displeasure on their faces.

The palace servants who came to deliver the rewards from the Empress Dowager came slowly with a smile on their shoulders, carrying a large square object covered with red silk, regardless of everyone's expressions.

"Congratulations, my lord, congratulations to my lord!" The palace man laughed, "This is a gift from the empress dowager. Congratulations to my lord for marrying the man I like, and I wish you and my lord a happy life together!"

Fang Yan's face was expressionless, and Shen Xiniang's eyes fell on the object covered with red silk and carried by two palace servants.

Jin Xiang and Dan Xin, who were waiting on the sidelines, were a little nervous.

No one else knows how much the Empress Dowager hates her wife, but they know it very well!Will the queen mother kindly give gifts to the prince and the lady?Unless the sun comes out in the west!
Dan Xin clenched her hands tightly, and Jin Xiang straightened her back.

Dan Xin took a step to the side, and said in a low voice: "Jin Xiang, watch carefully, the momentum is not right, let's go up immediately! We must not allow anyone to spoil the good deeds of the lady!"

Jin Xiang nodded quickly.

The palace servants bowed to Fang Yan and Shen Xinniang, and raised their hands to grab the red silk, "The Queen Mother's blessings are all here——"

As he spoke, he tore off the big red silk cloth.

Hiss—Dan Xin took a deep breath.

Everyone present also showed a look of astonishment.

The square thing covered under the red silk is a cage, in which two wild geese are locked, and the two wild geese are cuddling closely together.

There is nothing wrong with this at first. Wild geese are most loyal to their spouses. It was originally a good wish. As early as the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, there was a custom of presenting wild geese as gifts.

But at this time, the two wild geese cuddling each other in the cage were dying, and their slender necks seemed to be unable to be lifted.The originally smooth feathers were also drooping, as if they would die at any moment.

"Ah—" the palace man exaggeratedly exclaimed, "It was fine when I left the palace, why is it like this now? Bah, it's an ominous omen!"

All the guests were shocked when they heard this.

Jin Xiangdan's face was full of anger, and he rushed forward to strike.

Is there anyone who talks like that?On the day of great rejoicing, two dead geese were sent, and they were still on the wedding hall, uttering wild words, saying that it was an ominous omen!Isn't this just looking for a fight!
"My lord, don't rush!" Before anyone touched the palace man, the palace man yelled, "It's really not a servant talking nonsense, the empress dowager kindly sent wild geese to congratulate the lord, it was really good when she left the palace! How do you know that this moment of kung fu has become like this?"

In the originally quiet hall, the voice of whispering and discussing could not help but sound.

"I heard that the Empress Dowager gave the marriage to the young lady of the Yu family, but somehow she became the Shen family..."

"There is something wrong here... The little lady of the Yu family heard about it, but was forced by the officials to send her out of the palace and back to the Yu family. Isn't the empress dowager's heart not going well?"

"This is not good! I heard that the young lady of the Yu family is both talented and beautiful, and Prince Yu Qi is also a good match. Even if you can't marry the prince, you don't have to worry about marrying him. Why did the queen mother send two dying geese here? Isn't that Cursing someone? It may be God’s will to provoke the prince’s impatience for nothing..."

"Both talented and beautiful, how can this appearance surpass the current princess?" Gongsun Lan who listened to him snorted disdainfully.

"It's hard to tell about your appearance, but how can you tell this talent with just a few words?" someone said.

Someone even cleared their throats, and said mysteriously, "You guys are talking too far, today's matter is nothing more than the matter of the wild goose! The wild goose is about to die, maybe it is a sign of something!"

"Bah—" Gongsun Lan spat at the speaker.

The two sides glared at each other, their swords were on the verge of breaking out, and they were about to make a move.The person sitting with him hastily stopped him.

No matter what they say, these two dying geese appearing on the occasion of great joy are really a disappointment and an embarrassment.

Prince Qi's handsome face darkened, full of displeasure.Hearing the voice of discussion in the end, anger rolled in his eyes.The Yu family is really hateful.

"Since that's the case, even if you didn't take good care of it and damaged the Queen Mother's reward, why would you have the face to go back and report to the Queen Mother?" Fang Yan said coldly, "Come here, take it down."

Several palace people were immediately captured by the palace guards.

The palace man who spoke shouted: "The servants belong to the Empress Dowager! Prince Qi cannot punish the servants without permission! The servants should be returned to the Empress Dowager!"

"Pull it down, stick dead." Fang Yan said coldly, "I don't need you to comment on how this king behaves."

"My lord! My lord Qi! You can't kill slaves! You have no right to kill slaves—" The palace man was restrained by someone, and he was really scared when he heard the word stick death spit out from Fang Yan's mouth.

Thinking that he was shouting loudly, the guard reached out and blocked his mouth.

The palace servants were taken down, and a pair of dying geese lying in the cage were really an eyesore.And it's also making people feel unlucky.

"Carry it down." Fang Yan ordered.

"Wait a minute." Shen Xinniang said suddenly.

The wild goose had already appeared in front of all the guests, on her big day.Discussions are already everywhere, even if it can be lifted down, even if it can be invisible.

But in the future, when talking about the matter of Qi Wang Li Concubine, this matter will inevitably be remembered and mentioned again.

The happy event between her and Fang Yan was originally unparalleled.In the memory, how can the villain be made more proud?
Shen Xinniang turned around, took a tea bowl from the desk beside her, with her white and plain hands rolled up her sleeves, took the teapot, poured clear water into the bowl.

Covered by the wide and wide sleeves, she took advantage of the opportunity to replace the water in the bowl with the water of Lingquan Baiquan.Walking slowly to the side of the cage, he stretched out his hand to open the cage that held the two wild geese.

The cage was already opened, but the two wild geese didn't even have the intention to climb out of the cage, they were still lying in the cage, motionless, if it wasn't for the movement of the eyelids, it would make people feel that the two wild geese had already died.

"What is Mrs. Chen doing?" Some guests below whispered.

Fang Yan's eyes fell on Shen Xinniang, with suspicion in the depths of his eyes. He had touched the magical thing she gave him in Lingshan.

But she poured tea and served it right under his eyes, and the clear water in the pot was not unusual, was it?

But seeing her slowly bring the bowl to the mouths of the two geese, the animal is the most sensitive, as if sensing something, although the two geese were dying, they raised their heads vigorously, plunged their beaks into the bowl, and used up all their strength. Pecking vigorously at the water in the bowl.

The two wild geese cuddled up to each other, even when they were pecking at the water, they also gave in to each other. One wild goose was still clinging to the other, rubbing the other wild goose with its soft head and neck.The situation of clinging to each other until death makes people feel ashamed.

The hall was extremely quiet, everyone stared wide-eyed at Shen Xinniang's movements, to see what she was going to do.

People who were close could clearly feel that the two geese seemed to be a little different. As the water in the bowl became less and less, the two geese seemed to have regained some vitality.

When the water in the bowl had reached the bottom, the wild goose suddenly flapped its wings and stood up from the cage!

In the hall, there was a sound of astonishment.

Another wild goose was pecking at the water in the bowl, but its beak was too hard, so it couldn't drink the last bit of water.Another wild goose actually took the bowl from Shen Xinniang's hand, tilted its head, and poured the last bit of water in the bowl into the mouth of that wild goose.

It's just two geese. They look after each other like this, which is more tender than people.

Some young ladies and sensitive women couldn't help but secretly held their sleeves and held their handkerchiefs to touch the corners of their eyes, as if they were moved by the pair of wild geese supporting and caring for each other.

Dan Xin stepped forward and took the bowl back from Dayan's mouth.An even more surprising scene happened.

The two wild geese that were about to die unexpectedly came out of the cage flapping their wings.

The wings spread, and the cattail fan flew up suddenly, like playing on the roof of the huge hall, and flew around the beam several times.The pure white feathers seem to have a lustrous luster, and the appearance of flying with wings is chic and reckless, how can one see half of the lifelessness?Clearly strong and hale and hearty.

After flying around a few times, two wild geese landed beside Shen Xiniang, clinging to Shen Xiniang's clothes tightly, never leaving each other.

Is this the wild goose's confession?

The wild goose, which was dying, regained its strength because of her for a bowl of water.The water was poured in front of everyone, from an ordinary teacup to an exquisite but indistinguishable teapot.It is clearly different because of her!
"This is really the princess whose destiny belongs!" Someone couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Immediately more people joined in.

"Congratulations, my lord! Congratulations to my lord!" All the guests couldn't help but stood up one after another, and bowed their hands, "Congratulations, my lord, for marrying the Princess of Destiny—"

The sound of congratulations was like an overwhelming flood, submerging the huge hall and the huge Qi Palace in the joy.
