After the first fool

Chapter 14
"Elder-in-law, why are you here?" Qinglian was the first to come to her senses, and hurried forward, smiling enthusiastically.

"The miscellaneous family is here to announce the Holy Majesty's will, and the empress will take the order." He raised the bright yellow imperial edict in his hand, but Mo Xiaoran remained motionless, as if she was rooted in the chair.

Qinglian was so anxious that cold sweat broke out on her forehead, she immediately apologized, "Elder-in-law, you also know that the queen..."

Pointing his finger at his own head, Li Quan could only suppress his anger, hummed softly and unfolded the imperial decree, "The emperor's decree, the queen's eyes are lawless, and she made a big disturbance in the Palace of Compassion and Ning. From now on, Fengqi Palace will be confined and not allowed to leave. In half a step, the Phoenix Seal will be handed over to the Empress Dowager for safekeeping, and will be enshrined in the main harem by Concubine Xue tomorrow, and then handed over to the Empress Dowager to take care of it, hereby."

Concubine Xue?
Mo Xiaoran blinked numbly, and slowly met Li Quan's mocking gaze.

"Your Majesty, take the decree." Li Quan held the imperial decree in front of her, turned around neatly, and was about to leave.

"Alas! Eunuch Li." Qing Lian froze for a moment, then chased out of the palace with her skirt, and stopped Li Quan on the stone steps, "Who is this Xue Guifei?"

In the harem, there is only the queen now!

"The emperor has just decreed that tomorrow we will marry the daughter of the Minister of War, Noble Concubine Fengxue." Li Quan smiled arrogantly, "As for the empress, because she is born stupid, there is no need to attend."

After finishing speaking, he smiled sarcastically and left Fengqi Palace.

"This..." Qinglian was completely dumbfounded. Since the founding of Dongyao, there has never been two consecutive days of marrying the queen and the noble concubine. Isn't this an open and honest announcement to the world that the queen is not favored, just a decoration? ?
Mo Xiaoran looked at the bright yellow imperial decree in her hand in a daze, and she seemed to be able to imagine the scene where Bai Zixu and Liao Xue looked at each other affectionately.

All the palace people died tragically yesterday, but they have the leisure to hold a wedding ceremony?

This was the first time that Mo Xiaoran discovered that this palace was totally out of tune with her.

The hand holding the imperial decree was almost pale, and his eyes were filled with despair.

In the Palace of Mercy Ning, the Empress Dowager leaned on the soft pillow on the soft couch with Buddhist beads. She was wrapped in Chinese clothes and sandalwood scented her body. She looked at Bai Zixu beside her and said, "Your Majesty."

"My son is here." Bai Zixu looked at the Queen Mother respectfully with a slap on his face and a swollen right eye.

"Anyway, Mo Xiaoran is the queen that your matchmaker is marrying! If she doesn't attend the canonization ceremony, wouldn't it be a joke for the world?" The more the Queen Mother thought about it, the more she felt that the emperor's order was too early, "Prime Minister Although I don't care about Mo Xiaoran's daughter, it's hard to save face, look, how about letting her show her face?"

"Mother!" On Bai Zixu's gloomy and handsome face, even his usual gentle smile disappeared, "If that fool shows up tomorrow, I'm afraid there will be a big wedding!"

"How about this, the Ai family personally escorted Mo Xiaoran to let her take care of her, which can not only reflect the generosity of our royal family, but also appease the prime minister's heart. Now the prime minister is the head of the country, and the minister of the military department is also attached to our mother and son. Here, as long as some time passes and finds a reason to seize the military power from the regent's hands, why worry about not being able to secure the throne?" The empress dowager lazily persuaded with her cloudy eyes shining brightly.

After thinking about it, Bai Zixu also felt that this was the truth, he hesitated for a while before reluctantly nodding, "Okay!"

Seeing the emperor's reluctance, the queen mother narrowed her eyes slightly and smiled lightly, "Now that Dongyao has internal and external troubles, Xuanyuan and Lanyu are eyeing each other covetously, and the regent Baimo has the military power, and he is in control of the world's soldiers and horses. It is difficult to bring him down." She sighed and sighed, "If you don't rely on the power of the prime minister, why are you talking about being equal to Bai Mo? Now that the Ministry of War and the prime minister are in hand, almost half of the civil servants in the court support you. Only in this way can we fight against Bai Mo! Emperor, you want to fight?" I understand Aijia's painstaking efforts."

The regent Bai Mo is known as the god of war, and is supported by the people of the world. In the past, Bai Zixu ascended the throne. If he hadn't suppressed the voice of exclusion and supported Bai Zixu as emperor, I am afraid that the emperor would not know who it is!
Bai Zixu's eyes suddenly became dark and dangerous when he thought that Bai Mo had blocked the implementation of the policies he had implemented for a year since he took the throne for various reasons.

If the white ink is not removed, the imperial power will be unstable!In order to sit firmly on the throne, he must endure!

"Yes, don't worry, empress mother, my son knows very well that Mo Xiaoran is a fool, my son will bear with her for a while, and wait until the future brings down the regent..." It's not too late to get rid of her to vent his anger!
The words that came out of the clear and moist voice were extremely cold. In the Palace of Compassion and Ning, everything was peaceful.

On the second day, the Ministry of Rituals made preparations for the wedding ceremony with the spectacle of marrying the queen. The red silk was hung on the high and low beams of the palace, and laughter could be heard everywhere. Mo Xiaoran was sitting in the peach blossom forest outside Fengqi Palace , with a silly look on his face, he looked at these eunuchs and court ladies coldly, with a festive smile on his face, holding gold, silver and jade articles, and walked towards the Taihe Palace where the noble concubine lived.

Obviously someone just died yesterday, but today, they acted as if nothing happened.

The sunny March day made Mo Xiaoran feel cold to the bone.
