Xiangmen Concubine: The Emperor's Abandoned Concubine

Chapter 204 Enthroned
On May 38th in the [-]th year of the Fengtian Dynasty, Emperor Fengzhao, who was lingering and sick, decreed that the noble concubine Gu Ruoying should be made the empress.At the same time, he decreed to abdicate and the prospective prince ascended the throne.

On the second day, the crown prince Feng Jiuyou ascended the throne as emperor, with the year name Fengkang, respected Feng Zhaodi as the Supreme Emperor, and the former empress Gu Ruoying as the Empress Dowager.

The new emperor ascended the throne and pardoned the world.Not only will the tax be exempted for three years, but all prisoners on death row will be pardoned. According to their crimes, they will be reviewed and re-convicted by the Ministry of Punishment.

The eldest prince Feng Junxi, who was supposed to be executed after the fall, not only pardoned his death crime because of Emperor Fengkang's kindness, but even named him King of Lausanne.

When the imperial edict was issued, all the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were shocked.

Feng Junxi was overjoyed when he heard that, although he was dissatisfied with Feng Jiuyou's enthronement as emperor, he bowed his head and proclaimed himself a minister because he wanted to keep the green hills without worrying about firewood.

As we all know, the city of Lausanne is a good place.

Lausanne is bordered by the East China Sea to the east and the mainland to the west.The climate is pleasant, even in winter, it rarely snows, and the winter is as warm as spring.

Most importantly, Lausanne City is the third largest city in the south of the Fengtian Dynasty after Kaijingling City and Nanjun City.

The prosperity of Lausanne mainly comes from its commerce and trade. As the king of Lausanne, why does Feng Junxi not have the capital to make a comeback?

On the day of enthronement, Emperor Fengkang issued a decree to confer the title of Empress Wu Ai, the original nine princesses, to live in the newly built Jiuyou Palace in the palace.Ordered to rectify the Feifeng Palace, the former queen's bedroom, and renamed it Luoxia Palace.

Since then, Jiuyou Palace has become the emperor's bedroom, and Luoxia Palace has become an ordinary palace.

On the big day of the new emperor's ascension to the throne and the canonization of the empress, Emperor Feng Kang sat on the dragon chair with a lazy smile on his face and deep eyes.

After the imperial decree to enshrine the empress was sent to the Jiuyou Palace outside the imperial palace, the courtiers stood in the court hall, waiting for the empress to drive.

It's just that the time passed by every minute and every second, and the servant who went to deliver the decree didn't come back for a long time.

Sitting high, Emperor Fengkang's expression remained languid, but cold air slowly passed through those charming peach blossom eyes.

The civil and military ministers were all anxious, wondering why the newly conferred empress had been missing for so long.

Looking at Emperor Feng Kang's complexion, they couldn't see anything except charming and lazy.It's just the colder and colder eyes that made them all shudder.

Liu Yan suddenly appeared beside Feng Kangdi, leaned over and said something in Feng Kangdi's ear.Everyone saw that Emperor Fengkang's face changed slightly, and his voice was as cold as ice: "Send the order and immediately block all the gates of Jingling City, and no one can enter or leave Jingling City for half a step!"

After finishing speaking, Emperor Feng Kang suddenly got up and disappeared in the court hall in the blink of an eye.

"emperor!"

"emperor!"

……

After leaving Jiuyou Palace, Ruan Mianmian immediately changed out of her women's clothes and put on a set of gray men's clothes.

In order not to leave any traces behind, Ruan Mianmian didn't leave the women's clothing she had replaced, but took it with her and went directly to the city gate.

Three days ago Feng Jiuyou asked her to enter the palace with him, and she refused Feng Jiuyou's request on the grounds that she did not want to enter the palace too early.

At that time, Feng Jiuyou's complexion was not very good-looking, but after she repeatedly emphasized that she wanted to breathe the fresh air outside the palace again, Feng Jiuyou reluctantly agreed.

Feng Jiuyou ascended the throne, and the guards of Jiuyou Palace are more than ever before.Although Ruan Mianmian was surprised, she was still not too worried.

Early this morning, Ruan Mianmian changed into palace attire and waited for the imperial decree to be conferred in the palace, and wanted to rest on the pretext of being tired.Hsinchu was worried about missing the auspicious time, so he helped her into the carriage outside Hou Zai, and let her rest in the carriage.

At that time, even if she is sleepy and rests in the carriage, no one outside will be able to see her.Moreover, if the imperial decree comes after she falls asleep, she will not waste time in the carriage.

After knocking Hsinchu unconscious, she took off the heavy queen's auspicious clothes, put on the same clothes as the maids, mixed in the team of maids, and slowly left the team.

Ruan Mianmian was counting the time while walking, it would take an hour for the servant to deliver the decree, and it would also take an hour to go to the palace here.Because of the crowd, it may take longer.

Within half an hour, Ruan Mianmian ran straight to the gate of the city.Looking at the open city gate, there was a hint of joy in his eyes.

The new emperor ascended the throne today, and the entire Jingling City was immersed in joy.There are people coming and going on the street, and the shops and vendors are shouting.

Pulling the carriage that had been arranged earlier out of the alley, Ruan Mianmian jumped onto the carriage and rushed towards the city gate at high speed.

Seeing someone driving a horse-drawn carriage rampage, the soldiers defending the city quickly put up the fence and shouted: "Who is it, stop quickly!"

There were fine beads of sweat on Ruan Mianmian's forehead, and his expression was extremely anxious: "This military master is very kind, my sister suddenly fell seriously ill at home, and I will go out of the city to pick her up for treatment."

The leading guard raised his eyebrows, because the new emperor's enthroned army had paid a lot of food, and he was in a good mood and was not very disgusted with today's things.

When he saw the little brother driving the car, he was slightly taken aback, his eyes straightened.

It was the first time he saw such a handsome little brother.

Those eyebrows, that demeanor...

Ruan Mianmian's expression became more anxious, and she begged again and again: "Master, please do me a favor and let me go. I have no choice but to drive like this today. When I think that my sister is seriously ill and may die at any time, I will... ..."

Speaking of this, Ruan Mianmian's voice choked up.

The guards at the side looked at it and became a little worried.Such a good-looking son, and he is here to save the seriously ill sister at home.

"You are right to save people, but what if you drive like this and hurt someone?" the head guard said loudly, with a more serious expression.

Ruan Mianmian repeatedly apologized: "Master Jun, I know I was wrong, and there will never be a next time."

"Mr. Jun, the new emperor is enthroned today. There are too many people in this city. I am in a hurry to pick up my sister to the city for medical treatment. I have to queue up when the time comes. Mr. Jun, please do me a favor."

Ruan Mianmian had a pleading look on his face, as more and more beads of sweat appeared on his forehead because of anxiety.There was mist in his eyes, as if he was about to cry.

The leading guard nodded and sighed: "Forget it. Seeing that the new emperor is enthroned today, there are not many people here at the moment, and you haven't hurt anyone, so that's all."

"Thank you to this military master, thank you to all the military masters!" Ruan Mianmian thanked repeatedly, almost grateful to Ti Lin.

The leading guard waved his hand, signaling to the people behind to open the fence.

After thanking her, Ruan Mianmian raised her whip and drove the carriage quickly to the outside of the city.

According to the plan, Ruan Mianmian drove the carriage to the woods outside the city, and to the deepest part of the woods.Then he took the saddle, unloaded the carriage at the back, got on the horse, and headed towards the Temple of the City God.

There is no one on the road, and the cheerful chirping of insects is all around.

Ruan Mianmian didn't dare to be careless. After riding a horse to the Temple of the City God, she reached out and touched the abandoned temple statue in the backyard.

After a while, he took out a note from under the statue.

"Ma'am, everything is fine, don't read it. If you see this letter, please go west, detour around Heming Mountain in the west, go straight into the ring city, and see you around the city."

The eyes became brighter, Ruan Mianmian carefully checked the handwriting on it, and after confirming that it was unnecessary, she put the note into her cuff with a smile.

A feeling of uneasiness suddenly arose, and when he turned around, he saw a person standing at the door.

The moderately thick lips were tightly pressed, and there was a hint of a smile in the dark eyes.There was also a slight smile on his gentle face, and the wind blew his hair from behind, making it slightly disheveled, but it didn't affect his elegant temperament in the slightest.
