King's Pretty Lady

Chapter 131 Canonization Ceremony
The side courtyard of Chaofeng Palace, the courtyard where the crown princess learns how to be the mother of the country in the future. It has been a few years since Qing Ran passed away from her father and queen mother. In this place, apart from Qing Yan who often comes to accompany her, she can talk, and the rest is to learn the rules Etiquette, Feng Nian of the Sixth Court of the Sangong has never selected a beautiful girl since she became the throne, so the quiet empress and the palace are very lively today!
This bustle is not the usual bustle, it is the Queen's canonization ceremony, and it is also the day when she officially moves into the main hall of Chaofeng Hall.

Princess Ankang also put on brocade clothes today, and came to Chaofeng Hall early to watch the ceremony. Aunt Yun said: "The princess is not married yet, and the queen will only be seen after the ceremony."

Surrounded by palace ladies busy in and out, everyone was quiet and quick, fearing that they might make mistakes, so naturally they ignored the chatting of the masters.

Qing Yan covered her mouth and laughed, but she couldn't hide her joy, she simply let go of her hands and laughed casually and replied: "Aunt Yun, I have a marriage for a long time, and the son-in-law has already made a decision. What should I do before the bride gets married?" To visit and visit."

Aunt Yun sighed again: "Quickly shut up..."

Only then did Qing Yan refrain from asking: "Before father, empress and empress leave the palace, you were supposed to hold your canonization ceremony together with Brother Nian when he ascended the throne. It has been delayed for so many years, can you complain?"

"Yan'er, today I have just reached the age of Ji (15 years old), how can it be so long, besides, ascending is basically older than being canonized as the mother of the country, how can there be complaints, Feng misses him... the emperor also misses me when my brother and I just The grand ceremony was postponed because of the loss of parents and filial piety." Qingran replied as calmly as possible, the four of them were all in the palace these few years, but they seldom played together.

Firstly, they are getting older, each has its own rules and can't play together all the time, secondly, the elder brother dare not forget the pain of subjugation, only she loves Feng Nian more than her parents with her son-daughter love, that's why she is so thick-skinned I want to stay and marry Feng Nian, obviously he has ignored me all these years.

I hope that the father in heaven and the mother in the future will not blame his daughter for being unfilial!
"Well, Aunt Ling said, now that everyone is older, they naturally have different feelings. I still don't understand what different feelings are, but... Hongluan...why don't you see Hongluan?" Everyone said in disbelief. Said, how could Qingyan not know that Hongluan loved her when she was a child, but there was obviously something missing, and this year she started to ignore her, she once asked the emperor, Feng Nian ordered him to stay day and night Playing with me, I couldn't bear to force her like that, so I stopped talking to my brother about Hong Luan's strangeness!
Aunt Yun could understand what Ling'er said, so she said with a straight face: "This Ling'er is going to ruin you, Aunt Yun will change it for you tomorrow."

"It's fine, why change to my sister Ling, auntie, you are bad!"

"...Today's canonization ceremony, the words should be moderate. Auntie, I will talk to her later. It's almost time. Princess, you go back to the palace first. After the ceremony is completed, you can come to see the queen."

"When will Li Cheng be?"

Qingran blushed and said, "Tomorrow Maoshi."

"So early?...Okay, the princess will come over to have breakfast with the emperor's wife tomorrow!" She still doesn't know about children.

When he got up to leave, he said to Qingran who was watching him off: "Sister Ran, the emperor's elder brother has been busy with government affairs after the Lantern Festival, so he has no time to see you, right?"

"Yeah." Qing Yan mentioned her heart-wrenching matter, but Qing Ran knew that she had no bad intentions, and she probably wanted to say another thing to pave the way for it.

"Well, you are so beautiful today, the most beautiful in the world, my brother will definitely lose his mind when he sees you." Qing Yan left playfully.

Aunt Yun brought a bunch of things for Qingran to hold in her hands, but she didn't listen to the first words, only the last few words, and said, "This bell is outrageous, how could the princess learn these vocabulary, and she didn't see her correcting her. "

"Let her go, happiness is the most important thing." It's better for her not to know the changes of the people around her, especially Hong Luan, she is afraid that her brother will lose Qing Yan.

"It's so beautiful!" After everything was ready, Aunt Yun stepped back a few steps and exclaimed sincerely.

Qingran turned around and looked at herself in the mirror—it was indeed beautiful, but it might not be able to catch that person's gaze.

The Princess of Subjugation became Motuo's queen. During this period, many people were dissatisfied. Feng Nian didn't know what to think, maybe he also felt that he was not worthy of him... and because he promised the Supreme Emperor that he must make himself a queen, and he could not After the waste, the reason...

She didn't want to think about it anymore, the person in the mirror - red lips with plain teeth, emerald hair and moth eyebrows, all curled up, combing the hair of the empress in the palace, with golden phoenix step away, golden phoenix hairpin, gold hairpin, tin There are not a lot of flowers, all over her head, not to mention the neck, wrist, and waist. She also knows that the peony brocade on her body is from Ruanxiang, which is very graceful and luxurious, but... Qingran suddenly It feels very heavy and uncomfortable to wear.

"What's wrong?" Aunt Yun stepped forward and asked.

"It's okay..." She can bear it, she wants to be Feng Nian's woman, she can bear it, not only can bear it, but also enjoy it as a blessing, and be grateful. For the most important, for his sake...

She thought about the way of husband and wife, Four Books and Five Classics, Nushu, etc., and finally settled her body and mind, but her brain still couldn't help but say: "I'm so tired!"

But her eyes fell on the letter from home in front of the mirror. It was a letter from Xichu and Fengqing. It contained words of congratulations and words such as they were finally relieved. Qingran handed the letter to Aunt Yun to keep it, and waited It's not too late to show Feng Nian after the ceremony is complete.

Qingyan didn't want to go back to the palace at first, but Feng Nian was naturally not there, so various memorial ceremonies started early in the morning, and then the canonization ceremony was held at the main entrance, so if he wanted to see him, he would have to wait until Maoshi tomorrow.But it's impossible not to see brother Hong.

The little maid next to her was anxious: "Princess, let's go back to the palace first, or Aunt Ling will be in a hurry again."

"I'm in this palace, I didn't go anywhere, I told her not to worry." She left in a hurry, asked people along the way, only to find out that the future son-in-law was drinking alone in Wangxing Pavilion.

"This is the first time I've seen you drinking alcohol?" Qingyan went up to Wangxing Pavilion, sat next to him, and looked at the auspicious clouds in the sky: "Today is indeed a good day... You are also a civil and military official, and you are also a minister. Standing at the forefront of all the officials, why are you still here?" He didn't wear an official uniform either, it was the white clothes she always loved, and his unruly style made her feel relaxed and happy.

"..." Hong Luan didn't answer, he knew his problems, where he was worried, where he was reluctant, and where he was troubled, but he couldn't tell her one by one. She was still young, and Qing Ran also said that there were enough things , she simply thought that everyone would be the same as before, and she must not break her innocence.

Qing Yan turned her head to look at her fiancé's profile. When she was a child, she felt that he was nice. When she grew up, everyone around her praised him for being imposing, beautiful, and beautiful. Today, it was rare for her to sit quietly by her side. Er, it's no different from the emperor's brother. The emperor's brother is like the cold moon in winter, and he is like the cool breeze in autumn. She can't tell which one is particularly good-looking and which is particularly handsome.

Hong Luan turned to face her, avoiding her questioning eyes for a long time, Qing Yan was very happy to be able to face her face to face after drinking today, at this moment she stared at her, her cheeks flushed red.

"Your brother betrothed you to me, how do you feel?"

"Why ask that?"

"What's the problem with asking that?"

"Well, I was originally betrothed to you. After the canonization ceremony, our wedding date will be set. Besides, it was not betrothed by the emperor, but by our parents."

"Parents?" She grew up outside the palace, and she still used ordinary people's words, which made Hongluan feel more at ease, as if the state affairs were not so heavy on her.

"Do you blame Brother Huang?" They all underestimated themselves, but in fact she understood, because she didn't know how to solve the current situation, so they all pretended not to understand, that's all!
Hongluan stepped forward and gently kissed her forehead: "The mansion is sealed in Love City, are you willing to live there with me?"

"I will follow you to the ends of the earth." Cardamom was young, but he also knew what the promise was.

Hong Luan's eyes were red, and she hugged her tightly in her arms.

The sound of a long horn came from behind, and the grand ceremony began. This is not the three prostrations and nine kowtows of ordinary people's homes. Feng Nian stands in front, and no one of the generation of emperors will be majestic or enamored when they see it?

When he was a child, he was half a head smaller than himself, but now standing beside him, he only reached his shoulders. When did he become shorter or did he suddenly grow taller?

Gengsheng read the imperial edict: "Today, the daughter of Xiang's family, the founding father of the state, obeys the mandate of heaven and becomes a concubine in the East Palace. The beauty of Xie De. I have not been able to create it for a long time, and I am guilty of being alone. The group of officials and officials, reviewing the past dynasties, said that they respected the great lineage, and it was recorded in Dianmo. It is appropriate to build Changqiu to worship the ancestral temple. Not to replace the old fate, but to grant the empress the seal and ribbon according to the festival. Husband Kun De Shangrou, women's way of inheriting aunts, advocating the gift of prosperity, the righteousness of katydids, and benefiting from Yongzhen, cloning the foundation of the hall, mothering the world, and swaying the yin Teaching. In view of the six columns, the texts of the examination. It’s respectful, but you can’t be careless!”

Her father became Duke Jianguo, and her elder brother became a minister. After marrying the princess, she became a prince. She knew it was just a rumor, but Hong Luan didn't know if she remembered it.

Feng Nian frowned, and didn't say a word until now, because from today Qing Ran was his queen, but at some point, Feng Nian also saw that there was always an unresolved worry on her brow, before today He always pushes it because of Hong Luan, thinking that he has influenced her, but today's canonization ceremony, many women can't dream of it, she is still full of worries!
Qingran came all the way through the main entrance, and I don't know how much he bowed down, but because Feng Nian has been busy with this grand ceremony since half a month ago, especially yesterday's sacrifice and so on, he was not kneeling below her, so I hope the displeasure on his face is because Tired, not because of...myself!
After all the rituals were completed, she was escorted into Chaofeng Hall to wait quietly...

The Longevity Lantern is lit up this morning, and the red candles in each courtyard are also lit until dawn. The edict was issued half a month ago, and the whole world is also celebrating. The entire inner courtyard of the palace is red, and the more Qing Ran sits, the more afraid she becomes...
