marry the princess

Chapter 173 Avoiding Contradictions
"Today is the emperor's concubine ceremony. I just hope that you don't cause me any trouble. I hope that the princess will give me some kindness at that time, and don't embarrass me like this in front of the emperor and queen mother."

Su Leyan frowned, and was silent for a moment, "Why are you afraid that I will embarrass you, my lord?"

Murong Huayi did not answer.

In the past few days, they avoided conflicts with each other, Murong Huayi didn't bring it up again, and they became more and more alienated from Su Leyan.Su Leyan had been waiting for him to calm down, and then walked up to her, and had a good talk with her calmly, but Murong Huayi just transferred away the closest maid around her, and then ignored her for a few days. Murong Qing Emperor Yu's Concubine Ceremony, when he needed her, he came to her, and left with a hasty glance.

He doesn't care.

Su Leyan thought that no matter how much temper Murong Huayi had that day, after a few days it would settle down, and it would be nice to have a word with her.

But, not even once, just getting more and more estranged.

The reason is still unable to convince Su Leyan.

In the past few days, she has experienced Murong Huayi's indifference to her more than the year she has been in the palace.Because the indifference at that time was taken for granted, Su Leyan felt unwilling to be indifferent now.

She thought that she and Murong Huayi already had enough trust and understanding, but it turned out that there was only this level.

Su Leyan has also thought about it these few days.She and Murong Huayi have only been together day and night for a month, so the so-called understanding and trust now seem so pale and powerless to her.

Su Leyan bit her lip, still unwilling, but Murong Huayi's attitude had already cooled down her anticipation.

What is the relationship between her and Murong Huayi?She couldn't tell herself, she had also thought about how thin this relationship was in the past, and she was deeply worried while being happy.She is Yan Xinyao's substitute, she is a lowly commoner, she sits in the position of the princess of the Fourteenth Palace, but she will always remember that her name is not Yan Xinyao but Su Leyan.

On the day when her identity is revealed to everyone, Su Leyan doesn't know who will stand by her side to protect her.That day Murong Huayi carried her back to the Yanyu Pavilion regardless of other people's eyes, and told her to leave everything to him. Although Su Leyan was uneasy, at least at that moment she felt at ease.

Because Murong Huayi protected her by his side.

But now, Su Leyan began to doubt.

She backs down and compromises, she waits patiently.But she didn't know that her fragile confidence could withstand Murong Huayi's indifference.

"Qingyue and Xiaoyou, when will you call me back?" Su Leyan let go of her already pale lips after biting her lips so painfully, and asked in a low voice.

"They didn't take good care of her, causing the concubine to sprain her foot, and almost missed a major event." A concise and clear explanation.

Su Leyan frowned deeply, and asked again, "Then when will they be transferred back to my side?"

"Princess, you should know that even the servants around you are members of my Fourteenth Prince's Palace. If something goes wrong with them, it is only natural for this king to punish them."

"..."

Su Leyan has nothing to say.

Now she is not qualified to demand anything from Murong Huayi.

She knew what Murong Huayi meant by missing a major event. He was not worried about her injury because of this, but because if she sprained her foot, she would not be able to participate in today's concubine ceremony.If he was really worried about her injury, how could he not know that when she was injured, she needed the closest people to take care of her, instead of leaving her with two strange maids.

The temperature in Su Leyan's heart cools down inch by inch every time she thinks of these details, which makes her unable to move forward again. Standing in front of Murong Huayi with a smile, she says to him, "My lord, are you still there?" angry?Then Murong Huayi frowned and confessed that she was unhappy, and then Su Leyan told him that everything was just a misunderstanding, she wanted to snuggle into his arms and laugh with him like before.

Su Leyan looked away from the window and didn't speak any more.

On the issue of Qingyue and Xiaoyou, one should not be in a hurry.What Murong Huayi said just now meant that she was not qualified to dictate the affairs of the Fourteenth Palace.

The expectations in my heart fell again.

The carriage clacked and soon arrived at the palace.

Although it was just a concubine ceremony, Emperor Murong Qingyu devoted himself to government affairs and had not filled the harem for four years. This time the concubine ceremony was more grand.The Chongming Palace, where the ceremony was held, was newly decorated. Bright red carpets were spread from the outer door to the inner hall. Gold silk red lanterns were arranged in an orderly manner along the eaves of the palace, and colored silk and silk were tied with colored balls.

Looking at such a happy scene along the way, Su Leyan temporarily put aside the unhappiness in her heart.

From the moment they got off the carriage, Murong Huayi was by her side. When they went up the steps several times, he reached out to support her. He was considerate and considerate. Su Leyan was not shy either. She would cooperate with whatever he wanted to do.

In the Chongming Palace, the important officials of the court have already arrived, and the foreign wives also dress up according to their ranks. Standing behind the adults, the beauties are in their positions.Murong Huayi and Su Leyan came not too early or too late, as soon as they took their seats, the eunuch serving in the main hall took two steps forward, waved his whisk, and sang loudly: "Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, the noble concubine has arrived."

When everyone heard the sound, they stood in awe and greeted him in unison.

The Empress Dowager Chengyuan wore a peony and golden phoenix robe and a nine-phoenix flying crown on her head. The jewels were dazzling and glamorous. Emperor Murong Qingyu personally supported her into the hall and sat on the golden throne in the middle of the hall. Emperor Murong Qingyu was on the left of the Empress Dowager Chengyuan. Concubine Lin, who followed closely behind, sat down on the right side of the Empress Dowager, wearing a newly made yellowish red dress with phoenix patterns embroidered on the brocade robe. , but it is dark embroidered. Firstly, it shows her identity, and secondly, it is not too ostentatious. Concubine Lin wears a golden dragon, phoenix, pearl and jade hairpin on her head, and a dress, which is extremely dignified and generous. The minister's wife, with a smile on her face, is gentle and virtuous, quite the demeanor of a mother.

Concubine Lin Guifei couldn't be happy or sad, which made Su Leyan feel a little bit emotional.

After the ceremony before the ceremony, the eunuch stepped forward and sang loudly, and Li Ziying entered the Chongming Hall surrounded by six beauties, walking step by step on the bright red carpet.When they saw Li Ziying entering the palace, Li Yanke and his wife couldn't help but look very happy, and the surrounding officials looked at Li Ziying with amazed and envious expressions on their faces.

Su Leyan has been watching Li Ziying. She wears a complicated and heavy gold crown with thousands of flowers and butterflies, embellished with agate coral, pearls and jades, and radiant colors. She is dressed in a pink brocade robe with rose flowers embroidered with gold thread. The golden edge of the dress is also embroidered with gold thread, which is exquisite and elegant, and the sleeves and skirt are also rolled with gold edge, covered with a layer of light white gauze. Even the noble and luxurious clothing is also more beautiful because of Li Ziying's extraordinary face. A bit of immortality.She wears light makeup, bright eyes, red lips and bright teeth, and a touch of red pistil fan flower tinsel on the center of her eyebrows, which makes people look mesmerized.
