The First Empress - Chapter 187

Chapter 187 Phoenix Marriage

Three days later, the Imperial Heavenly Chancellor flipped through the Jade Box and placed the ceremony on the same day.

Zhenxi was dressed very well. Her entire body was wrapped in a crimson dress like a red chili pepper. Concubine De brought Zhenxi into the sedan chair with tears in her eyes.

Zhenxi lowered her temples. Above his head was a jade hairpin. She seemed to be in high spirits, However, there was a sense of disappointment and anger in Zhenxi’s eyes. De Fei reluctantly sent Zhenxi into the spacious carriage. Zhenxi turned her head and said, “Mother, please come back. I will definitely come to visit mother this summer. Mother must take care of her phoenix body and don’t let her have an opportunity to take advantage of it.”

Concubine De nodded repeatedly with tears in her eyes. Empress Ji Zhuhua also walked over. She looked at Zhenxi and said, “No matter what, just look at the red makeup in front of you. The Emperor has prepared ten li of red makeup for you, Princess Zhenxi. Only after reaching the red carpet on the outskirts of the capital did you withdraw it. There were red makeup all the way. The people also prepared red ceremonies. You just need to be at ease.”

The corners of Zhenxi’s lips curled into a cold smile and she said, “The Empress is overthinking it. It is Zhenxi’s duty to give a little strength to Dali. Zhenxi is the daughter of the Emperor. Naturally, she has to do something according to the rules. Mother and Empress, please go back.”

As he spoke, he immediately lowered the Pride Curtain, but in the end, he slowly lifted it up and asked, “Why didn’t you see Empress Jieyu today? I presume that Empress Jieyu is now in the middle of the Sacred Family, so can’t she be an avatar?”

Hearing this, Linglong said, She was secretly shocked. That’s not how Zhenxi used to talk, Presumably, Zhenxi no longer had the heart to die, This was the daughter that Concubine De had taught her, In the end, she and De Fei had the same method, The two of them were both so bold. They might not understand at first, but they would adapt to the situation in the future. Moreover, they were so calm. They were like carvings made of wood and clay. Linglong didn’t want to appear today. If it weren’t for her encouragement, things wouldn’t have happened today.

Hearing her mention him, Linglong stepped forward slightly and said, “Why isn’t this palace here? Even if your avatar is incompetent, it will come to your great day, won’t it?” Linglong stood outside the pride curtain, her figure slender and seductive. That soul-stirring shadow trembled slightly on top of the pride curtain.

Zhenxi stretched out her hand and opened the pride curtain. The pair of Bi Xialuo embroidered with phoenixes shook slightly. The pair of beautiful eyes looked at Linglong and said, “It was all arranged by Empress Jieyu. Your son has to properly thank you, Empress Jieyu. We will meet again. Empress Jieyu, don’t forget that it is you who gave me today’s glorious pet, the Ten Miles Changhong. This is something that has never existed in ancient times. It is only ten years. We will only wait and see for ten years.”

Linglong gently held Zhenxi’s hand and sighed. “This palace has also done what it can. Zhenxi, don’t forget your true self. At that time, this palace will definitely stand upright and wait for you.”

Zhen Xi held the Qi Luo Cui soft veil in her hand, and the arrogant curtain was heavily lowered. From afar, it was indeed a red color. This group of people seemed to be stepping into the sunlight.

At this time, Tuoba Rui slowly walked out on a horse tied with red wreaths. Huiqi naturally had nothing to say to Tuoba Rui. He chatted and laughed. He looked like a very good husband-in-law. However, other people didn’t know about Linglong, but they did. This situation was only on the surface.

Linglong watched from afar as the sedan chair walked far away. Her eyebrows moved horizontally, until it slowly turned into a small red dot. Only then did the team slowly grow stronger. Huiqi walked over and cupped his hands to send Tuoba Rui away. Tuoba Rui looked at Linglong meaningfully and said, “Take care of yourself, Bu Jieyu.”

“Take care, Prince. The mountains and rivers are high and the waters are low. You must protect the princess.” Linglong cupped her hands and Tuoba Rui nodded. She patted her horse and galloped away. Huiqi waited until Tuoba Rui walked away from her. Then, she waved her sleeve and said, “Go back.”

The concubines took small steps and slowly followed Huiqi back. Imperial Concubine De walked to Linglong’s side and said, “Before leaving, Zhen Xi told me to tell Concubine Jieyu a few words.”

Linglong walked slowly. She turned her head and said, “There’s no need for you to say anything. This palace already knows. This matter was not caused by this palace alone. There is really no way for this palace to have such a way out. It’s good that you don’t blame me.”

“Zhenxi said that those who violate the might of the Western barbarians will be executed even if they are far away.” Imperial Concubine De said this and slowly lagged behind.

On the other hand, Chen Chongyi saw Concubine De come over to warn Linglong. She couldn’t bear it and hurriedly came over to support her. Linglong felt dizzy. After doing this, she always felt exhausted. They went to the stone lion in front to rest for a while. Linglong said, “Big sister, did you see it?”

Chen Chongyi nodded repeatedly and said, “Regardless of what Concubine De wants to do, sister will definitely risk her life to protect you.”

‘”That’s not what I meant. I just want to work together with my sister. How many people in the imperial palace are good friends?” Ling Long was slightly enraged, “That’s not what I meant. It’s just that I want to work together with my sister. How many people in the imperial palace are good friends?”

Chen Chongyi nodded repeatedly.

Linglong returned to Yunluan Palace. Qin’er didn’t dare to say anything when she saw that Linglong’s thoughts weren’t part of her mind. Linglong looked at the newly opened peony in front of her and secretly laughed in her heart. How could there be a peony this season? However, the peony in front of her was so demonic and charming. She felt that it carried an inexplicable dignity. It was a peony, not some other flower. Peony was the king of flowers.

Linglong reached out to break the peony. While enjoying himself, He couldn’t help but mutter to himself, Thinking of the morning’s Feng Marriage, Linglong felt uncomfortable, “Since when did I not notice that I have become so fast? Everyone says that the Empress is ruthless. I feel that there is still room for the Empress to do something. I …” Linglong Chenghao tightly gripped the peony flower with her wrist. “Things that are abnormal are demons. Why are you in this palace? Is the King of All Beauties something this palace can handle?”

As Linglong spoke, she gently opened the peony petals. Not only was it the King of All Beauties, it was also the rare Yao Huang and Qin’er in the capital who came to serve tea. Seeing Linglong playing with the peony with her hands, her expression changed slightly. “Your Highness, this flower?”

Linglong smiled faintly like a veil, “I was just about to ask you, when did someone send this flower over? It just happened to bloom at this time. It’s already past its blooming period. It’s really strange.”

Qin’er did not know when this flower bloomed. When she first left, she did not notice that the peony flower had actually bloomed. It seemed that it was not a coincidence that she could not see it. Moreover, it was the king of flowers.

The two of them chatted leisurely for a while. At this time, the little supervisor outside said that Princess Bao Luo was coming, Linglong Qiang cheered up. Bao Luo was welcomed in. Baoluo’s eyes were filled with spring water. Looking at Linglong, she kowtowed three times. Seeing Bao Luo’s big bow, Linglong did not stop her. However, she only extended her hand after the bow was over. “It’s all Mother Bu’s duty. Mother Bu won’t stop you. Mother Bu knows that you are a good child who knows how to repay kindness. Now that Zhenxi is gone, you are the pillar of the princess. You should be fine in the future.”

Bao Luo’s eyes were filled with hope, “Imperial Concubine Bu, this son should kowtow to Imperial Concubine Bu properly. Without Imperial Concubine Bu walking over there now, it would be me. Imperial Concubine Bu should kowtow to this son properly.”

Baoluo knocked her head against the ground, and Linglong quickly helped Baoluo up. She looked at Baoluo and said, “There’s no need to thank me. Your mother helped me a lot.” Actually, Linglong’s heart was extremely unsettled. After all, this matter was something that she had requested from the song, not directly from it. This was the first time she felt guilty. However, this feeling was so uncomfortable that it made her heart and eyes feel incomparably sad.

After sending Paulo away, Linglong’s mood was still numb. This way, Xiang Baoluo had just left, Not long after, Xianghui Qi came over. Linglong did not expect Hui Qi to come over. It has been a long time since Hui Qi came. She reached out her delicate hand and held Hui Qi’s. Hui Qi looked at Ling Long and said, “Now I can rest easy. In fact, I have to thank Jie Yu for this matter. You are a capable person and can let the people of the border live a peaceful life for ten years.”

Linglong Xiuyan was more beautiful than Hua Jiao. She looked at Huiqi and said, “These are all things that His Majesty Hong Fu Qitian did. I didn’t do anything.” Huiqi sneered, “Do you really think I’m blind?”

Linglong hurriedly knelt down. “Perhaps someone else said something. This matter concerns the Emperor. He must stop the harem from talking about Princess Zhenxi. I’m just pushing the boat along with the water. Everyone doesn’t know why, but why do you think I’m the concubine …”

Huiqi looked at Linglong and sighed slightly. “You can get up. I know that you are very good at arranging things. However, you are too reckless about Wen Ping.”

Only then did Linglong understand that Huiqi did not know the truth of the matter, and her heart was stabilized. Huiqi stretched out her hand and pulled Linglong up. Her eyes were filled with spring water as she looked at Huiqi and said, “Your Majesty, do you think that what is happening now is good or not?”

Huiqi sighed and said, “Naturally, it’s very good. First, with Zhenxi outside, you can protect the people. Second, the Chaotic Party of the Imperial Court naturally cannot act recklessly. They are also afraid of Prince Tuoba’s power.”

After listening to Hui Qi’s words, Linglong smiled and nodded. “It’s a good thing to kill two birds with one stone. It’s just that Princess Zhenxi has to face a face that she can’t stand anyway from now on.”

“It’s not good for a man to be beautiful. Ugly looks also have the advantage of ugliness. I’m sure Zhenxi will understand soon.” Huiqi said coldly. She had an attitude of “nothing to do with her”. Linglong smiled bitterly in her heart. Huiqi didn’t even leave any hypocrisy to Zhen Xi. For the sake of the people at the border, she could have ten years of stability and Fu Feng didn’t care about Zhen Xi’s life or death at all.
