Chapter 483 The Empress Dowager's Decree
Originally, I thought that this Mid-Autumn Festival would be lively and lively, but on that day, it was extremely deserted.

Xiao Xuanqi, who was expected to come, suspended her schedule and did not come.

Just because a lot of things have happened this month, people are panicking, so I don't want to celebrate the festival.

The king of Qi thought that the vassals were too powerful, and they might be difficult to control, and the court was weak.

Half of the people in the court disagreed with this matter. The establishment of the feudal clan was determined by the ancestors, so how can we change it just by saying it.Moreover, once the feudal lords are cut, what will happen afterwards may be unpredictable. The new emperor has only been on the throne for four years, and his foundation is not deep.

What these ministers said was euphemistic enough. To put it bluntly, even if the little emperor was not Han Jingdi, he still wanted to learn from others to cut down the vassals, and he was not afraid of the rebellion of the vassals.

But Xiao Yuheng was arrogant and always acted arbitrarily, saying that it was because the new emperor had just ascended the throne that he used this matter to give the emperor prestige, but the officials tried to persuade him to no avail.

Xiao Yuheng took Emperor Xiaojing's younger brother, King Xiang as the first target. King Xiang was Emperor Gaozong's eleventh son. Because he was the youngest son, he loved him very much and was also a strong contender for the throne at that time.

After the death of Emperor Gaozong, the two lakes were enfeoffed as their fiefs, and they were named Prince Xiang.

He has always followed the rules and settled down in Wuzhou, but this time he was accused of treason by his chief official, Shi Gening.So the king of Qi sent Wu Yue, Minister of the Ministry of War, to pass through Wuzhou in the name of Bei Bian, escorted King Xiang's family back to Beijing, abolished them as common people, and moved them to Ninggu Tower for detention.

Immediately afterwards, at the beginning of August, Prince Lian, who was given to live in Fengzhou, deposed the prince and deposed him as a commoner. King Lian lived a clean and honest life, unbearable to be humiliated, and set himself on fire at home to save his name.

The lips are dead and the teeth are cold, and now the princes of the vassals are in danger and anxious, and no one knows who will be next.

First it was from the generation of the emperor's uncle, and next, it might be from Xiao Junjue's generation, who will be the first?
When she woke up in the morning, Rongzhao's right eyelid kept twitching, which made her flustered, always feeling that something was going to happen.

"Miss didn't sleep well, it's okay, first put a small piece of paper on the eyelid, and I won't jump in a while." Gu Wu tore off a small piece of paper, stuck some water on it, and stuck it on Rong Zhao's right eyelid. superior.

Gu Wu came back three days ago, and has been with Rong Zhao for the past few days. The last time she came back was more than a year ago.

"Is this thing easy to use?" No matter how uncomfortable it is to put something on the eyelids, Rong Zhao blinked and looked at her with disgust.Looking at the hands in front of him, Rong Zhao pulled them over, "You, why are you so thin? Look at your hands, they look like chicken feet."

Gu Wu was already thin, but after giving birth, he was even thinner than before. Rong Zhao glanced at Qiu Shui, "Look at our Qiu Shui, we are round and smooth, and chubby is so pretty, you can't eat more."

Qiu Shui directed the servant girl to do things, and when she heard the princess mentioned her, she leaned over and said, "Miss, are you complimenting me or burying me?" He touched his face, "What's wrong with the pearls and jade, my nighthawk likes me like this, he It is said that there is no need to cover more quilts in winter, just hug me to keep warm."

Gu Wu covered his mouth and smiled, "You are really not ashamed, you still say such things, you are not at all ashamed."

Rong Zhao tilted Qiushui and made fun of her, "How could she know how to be ashamed, she couldn't help telling me about her boudoir. When I get back, I'll tell you when I'm free."

For so many years, Qiu Shui and Gu Wu have long surpassed the relationship between master and servant to Rong Zhao. They are not sisters, but better than sisters. They can say everything between them, and Rong Zhao only tells them what is in his heart.

Sometimes Xiao Junjue also said that she always felt that Rong Zhao was not close to Qiu Shui.It's like what he knows, Qiushui must know about her, but what Qiushui knows, he doesn't necessarily know.

Qiu Shui blushed, "Miss, what nonsense, when did I tell you that kind of thing?" Pulling Gu Wu, "Gu Wu, don't listen to Miss nonsense, she likes to make fun of people now." Hum Rongzhao.

Rong Zhao raised his face, the corners of his eyes flew away, and he twisted Qiu Shui's face with his hands, "You are really getting more and more courageous, and you still dare to call me nonsense. When I am free someday, I have to treat you well, otherwise you will became my master."

Gu Wu laughed and said, "It's not that you are used to it, miss."

Qiu Shui touched her face, Rong Zhao's hands were light and not heavy, she pursed her lips and muttered, "That's right." Seeing Rong Zhao staring at her,
Smiling faces piled up, and he hurriedly supported Rong Zhao to sit down, "Miss, the wives and ladies from all the prefectures will come to see you in a while, and the slaves will put on your make-up for you, please sit down."

Rong Zhao hummed lightly, rolled his eyes, and let her put on makeup.

Sometimes Rong Zhao really felt that being the princess was very tiring. On days like the Mid-Autumn Festival, he always had to receive people, and he couldn't spend a festival peacefully at all.

But it can't be perfunctory, walking around with the officials below, sometimes it really means this kind of time.

Today's dinner is held in the Ningxiang Xiaozhu in the back garden. It is built on top of ten-mile lotus, surrounded by mahogany water pavilions, Xiaoxiang bamboo curtains are half-rolled and half-hanging, leaning against the water, the osmanthus on the bank and the powder in the water. The scent of lotus passes by lightly, fresh and condensed, and Xiaozhu is named after it.

Rong Zhao is wearing a goose yellow dress today, with a light green palace sash around his waist, and a shawl of the same color on his arm. Thousands of blue silks are simply tied into a bun, decorated with jasper hairpins, so elegant The dress, on her body, feels more radiant, highlighting the beauty of her appearance.

Sitting with Xiao Junjue, they are like a couple.

This year's moon is extraordinarily big and round, rising above the head, as if covering Ningxiang Xiaozhu.

Rong Zhao looked at the people singing and dancing in the middle of the banquet, and he lacked interest, intending to lose interest.She touched her eyelids and socialized with others, but she was also perfunctory.

In the morning, Gu Wu put a piece of paper on it, and then it really got better, but at night, it jumped up again, and now, the jumping is getting worse and worse, and I feel blocked in my heart, as if something is about to happen.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Seeing her listless and preoccupied, Xiao Junjue put down the glass, held her shoulders, and asked with concern, "Why don't you go back and take a rest."

Rong Zhao looked at him, shook his head, Xiao Junjue touched her forehead to see if she had a fever, fortunately, her body temperature was normal.

"Wait a while and there will be the fireworks you like to watch, and I will accompany you back after watching them."

Rong Zhao nodded, leaned on his shoulder, and said sadly: "I always feel that something bad is going to happen."

Xiao Junjue's expression paused, his brows furrowed involuntarily, and then spread out suddenly, shaking Rong Zhao's hand, "Don't talk nonsense, it's unlucky to say such words today."

Rong Zhao squeezed out a smile, "Okay, don't say anything." He poured a glass of wine for Xiao Junjue, held it up and sealed it for him, "The concubine apologizes for what she said just now, please drink the glass to the full."

Xiao Junjue pursed his lips and smiled, raised his glass and drank it. He lifted his wide sleeves to cover him and Rong Zhao, and took the opportunity to kiss her on the cheek, "Can a glass of wine be enough to make amends?"

Rong Zhao cast a glance at him, pretending that nothing happened just now, but secretly squeezed Xiao Jun's trick, and said in a low voice, "You are getting more and more out of shape."

Xiao Junjue looked at her, smiled without saying a word, his eyes were full of pampering and Chi Guoguo's love.

Under his gaze, Rong Zhao lowered his head shyly, his face was still slightly red.

At this moment, there was a commotion outside.

Xiao Junjue stood up, with a trace of displeasure on his brows, and asked in a low voice: "What's going on outside?"

Yeying Yexiao walked out of the waterside pavilion, inquired about the situation, and hurried back to report, "My lord, the servant of the Ministry of Rites brought the Queen Mother Yi's decree to deliver the decree, and is now waiting for the summons."

The man wanted to come in, but the guards outside refused to let him in, so there was a conflict.

Nighthawk approached Xiao Junjue, whispered: "A lot of people have been brought here, and the palace has been surrounded." Looking at Xiao Junjue, "The visitors are not kind."

Rong Zhao's heart shuddered, the empress dowager's order?What's wrong with her?If it wasn't useful to keep her, the medicine given to her should be poison, not anti-abdominal medicine, and the poisoning would be done, saving her from coming out to make trouble now.

Just say that the eyelids are twitching this morning, so it's because of her.Not knowing exactly what this decree was, Rong Zhao panicked and held onto Xiao Junjue tightly.

Xiao Junjue looked at her and held her hand to comfort her.After thinking about it, Xiao Jun said: "Let him in."

Rong Zhao clenched his hands and frowned, Xiao Junjue patted her hand, "It's nothing." His face was gloomy, his lips were pursed into the word "one", and his eyes were fixed on the front.

The silk and bamboo orchestra stopped, everyone was silent, and soon, the Minister of Rites walked in.

The so-called enemies are extremely jealous when they meet. The person who came to the Ministry of Rites is Gao Xinglong, the eldest son of Gao Yunpeng. Although the Empress Dowager Gao was killed, the Gao family
Already joined forces with the King of Qi, Gao Xinglong climbed up to the King of Qi, and now holds such an important position as Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites.

Gao Xinglong has always held a grudge against Rong Zhao and Xiao Junjue. His father had an accident when he was in the Northwest, and he is still paralyzed here. He has always suspected that it was the Chu Wang couple who did it.

My father has always been healthy, so how could there be an accident? Maybe it was the king of Chu who made a hindrance and harmed my father.

This time, he was overjoyed to be ordered by King Qi, and vowed in front of King Qi that he would do the job well.

Gao Xinglong came in swaggeringly, looking at no one in his eyes, and did not salute when he saw Xiao Jun's formula, walked to the middle, unfolded the imperial edict, and sang: "The king of Chu accepts the edict."

There was a starlight in Xiao Junjue's eyes, and he knelt down to ask for an order. Seeing this, Rong Zhao also knelt down, and Ulala, who was kneeling on the ground, put his hands on the ground.

"In the battle against Luoluo, the king of Chu made great contributions in defending the city, and the mourning family was pleased. He rewarded him with two hard-earned BMWs and a thousand taels of gold. The son of the king of Chu, intelligent since childhood, with outstanding aptitude, is an example for all the sons of the world. Bashu is a barren land , It is not good for the growth of King Chu's son. The Ai family thought of the achievements of King Chu, and knew that the son of Chu King was about the same age as the emperor, so he wanted to take him back to Changge City and accompany the emperor to show his grace. On the day of receiving the imperial edict, The prince of Chu followed the imperial envoy back to Beijing, and the Ai family must treat him like his own son."
