"But," Gao Yurong said worriedly: "At the concubine canonization ceremony before, the empress was convicted and demoted because of that incident, will this time—"
"I'm not so stupid this time."
Thinking of the time when she was demoted before, Wu Wan's expression darkened, and she said coldly, "I won't do it myself."
"..."
"Unless it is absolutely necessary."
"That-"
Wu Wan said: "Do you think that the ministers in the court really didn't react at all to this canonization?"
"..."
"Besides," she sneered again: "The noble concubine was taken away, do you think the people behind her are not in a hurry?"
Gao Yurong came back to her senses: "Your Majesty is referring to the uncle of the imperial concubine, a member of the Gu family."
"..."
"My concubine paid attention to it, this time the canonization of Concubine Ning, the one who objected most strongly was that Gu Tingqiu."
"And his disciples."
Wu Wan sneered, patted Gao Yurong's shoulder, walked forward, and said as she walked, "Today, let's just wait and watch the show. If the scene is good, we might as well sing with our voices."
"I understand."
Gao Yurong also sneered and followed.
not for a while. They walked to the front of the hall.
Similar to the last ceremony for conferring a noble concubine, a table has been placed in the main hall, with the canonized edict and seal on it.
Below the main hall, on the wide square, hundreds of civil and military officials gathered.
Gao Yurong saw Gu Tingqiu standing in the crowd and several of his disciples at a glance. These people all had solemn expressions, as if they were planning something.
And Cheng Guogong on the other side.
Although this time, it seemed that someone was going to rush to the front, and they could relax, but Cheng Guogong's face was not relaxed.
Indeed, I heard that the Duke has been worrying about something ever since he came back from the Great Sacrifice Altar.
The emperor doesn't go to court these days, and the dukes seem to be making frequent moves.
In short, today's canonization seems to be much more turbulent than the last time the concubine was canonized.
At this moment, Eunuch Yu’s voice came—
"The emperor is here."
Everyone hurriedly raised their heads, only to see Zhu Feng's figure walking from the side.
Everyone immediately stepped forward, knelt down and said, "I pay my respects to the emperor."
The officials under the main hall also bowed down one after another, shouting long live.
Some courtiers, regardless of the taboo at this time, subconsciously raised their heads and looked at Zhu Feng standing in front of the hall.
Long Yan, who has not seen the emperor for a long time, has all kinds of rumors among the officials.
There are even rumors that the emperor has been killed.
It's just that the queen and the important ministers around him kept secret all the time, in order to stabilize the overall situation. Of course, people who were really in the court would not believe such words, but they also knew very well in their hearts that the emperor was in the altar. After that, something must have happened.
However, looking at it today, he seemed to be fine again.
Zhu Feng's figure was still tall and straight. Standing in front of the hall, he looked like a towering green pine, giving people a feeling of being reliable.
It's just that everyone can feel that Long Yan has lost weight.
And I don't know if it was an illusion, but the evil spirit and hostility brought about by the emperor's military career seemed to have dissipated a lot, and the peaceful breath in those eyes actually overwhelmed his domineering spirit for the first time.
This is somewhat surprising.
Cheng Guogong looked up cautiously, then lowered his head immediately.
His gray eyebrows furrowed slightly.
In front of the main hall, Zhu Feng calmly waved his hand: "You all get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
These concubines slowly stood up. In fact, careful people have already discovered that the concubine Li Fengshu who was very favored in the harem a while ago is not among the crowd at the moment.
However, Zhu Feng obviously didn't notice.
He had already forgotten about this person.
And the women in the harem would not open their mouths to ask who disappeared suddenly, and even the noble concubine could be taken away in the cold palace, so it is not surprising that the concubine Li was controlled by the queen's people.
This time when the capital was moved, too many major and strange things really happened.
Zhu Feng turned his head and looked down the hall.
Civil and military officials kneeled down neatly, the entire square was full of people, and in the distance, there were red walls and green tiles, extending into the distance.
Looking at it this way, it gives people a feeling that the earth is under their feet.
For some reason, seeing this scene, Zhu Feng suddenly felt a little dizzy.
He reached out and gently touched his forehead.
Xu Miaoyin had sharp eyes and quick hands, and hurried forward to hold his arm: "What's wrong with the emperor?"
"..."
Zhu Feng took a deep breath, turned his head to look at her, and then looked at the officials kneeling on the ground below, feeling a little strange in his heart—how could he feel that this scene seemed familiar at that moment
As an emperor, it is of course a very familiar scene to see his officials bowing down.
However, that sense of familiarity is a bit strange.
It wasn't that the familiar picture flooded into my mind, but that familiar feeling was like a heavy punch, which hit my head hard, but disappeared in an instant.
Like a hurricane passing through.
Until now, there is a strong shock in his mind.
Xu Miaoyin looked at his somewhat pale face, and was very worried. This was the first time Zhu Feng appeared in front of the officials after the "Taishang Wangqing" came into play.
Although she and He Yi have already made a lot of preparations, it is inevitable that there will be some surprises in today's scene.
She said cautiously: "If the emperor is not feeling well, please go back to the main hall first."
"It's okay, I'm fine."
Zhu Feng shook his head, looked at the ministers of His Royal Highness, and said, "Pingshen."
The master of ceremonies immediately said loudly: "Ping—body—"
"Xie my emperor, long live, long live, long live."
The officials kowtowed again, then stood up.
At this time, Wu Ding and a few disciples immediately approached Wu Yingqiu cautiously, and said softly, "Father, what's wrong with the emperor now?"
"..."
Wu Yingqiu didn't speak.
His eyes were still fixed on the figure in the hall.
Although Zhu Feng was still Zhu Feng, equally domineering and majestic, but in just a few days, what happened these days had already caused too much doubt in their hearts.
Looking at him again, the emotion in my heart is also different from before.
"Father, did something really happen to the emperor?"
"..."
"These days, my sister doesn't even see him once. We all thought that something happened to the emperor."
"..."
"But looking at it now, he's still fine."
"okay."
Wu Yingqiu said in a deep voice, "Whether it's all right or not, we'll have to wait a while."
As he spoke, he looked at a group of people on the other side.
Gu Tingqiu and the others.
In the previous canonization ceremony, they were the ones who caused trouble. Gu Tingqiu and the others wanted to suppress the fire. This time, the positions were completely changed.
However, he was not in the mood to watch fire from the other side.
This time "reunion after a long absence", everyone has their own thoughts, but his thoughts are obviously deeper.
At this time, the master of ceremonies said loudly again: "The time has come, the canonization ceremony begins."
As soon as the voice fell, there was a magnificent sound of drum music in the side hall.
In the imperial palace of Beiping, the first grand ceremony, the sound of drums and music echoed between the towering red walls and palaces, making it extraordinarily magnificent.
Along with the music, a group of people came in front of them.
Zhu Feng raised his head, and after just one glance, a smile appeared in his eyes.
Concubine Ning Qin Ruolan, dressed in a dress, walked slowly towards the grand ceremony surrounded by the palace people.
She was wearing a very luxurious gown, although it was not as gorgeous as the queen's phoenix gown, but because she was an all-powerful beauty, such exquisite makeup added to her peerless appearance.
Even though there was dissatisfaction in her heart, the surrounding concubines couldn't help sighing when they saw her—
She is indeed an alluring beauty.
No matter how much the emperor doted on the imperial concubine before, at least in terms of appearance, the imperial concubine was inferior to her, and the women in the entire harem were also inferior to her.
Wu Wan snorted coldly, and said in her heart: It's just a stinky skin, when you get old and look bad, how long do you think you can be proud
In an instant, Qin Ruolan had already walked in front of Zhu Feng.
She looked up at him, and there were tears in those bright eyes.
"Your Majesty, concubine, I pay my respects to the Emperor."
After finishing speaking, amidst the magnificent ritual and music, Yingying bowed down.
And at the same time.
The carriage stopped at the harbor.
Before getting out of the car, I heard the sound of surging waves, just like the magnificent drum music, which made people feel excited.
Nan Yan got off the carriage, and before she could stand still, she was blown back several steps by the sea wind. Fortunately, Jian Ruocheng also jumped off the carriage in a hurry and supported her.
"It's very windy."
He stood in front of Nan Yan and used his back to shield her from the wind.
Nan Yan looked up at him and said softly, "Thank you."
Jian Ruocheng just shook her head lightly.
They turned their heads to look at the sea, but were stunned for a moment.
Although the sky was clear and clear, the sea was not calm. Huge waves were churning, and they slammed on the coast layer by layer, causing huge waves, even as high as several floors.
Although she has traveled to many places, but counting, this is the first time she has seen the sea.
Just, kind of scary.
She said softly: "Why is the weather so good and the waves so big?"
A guide next to him was actually the guide of the Haisha Gang. Hearing this, he sneered: "The weather is good, and the waves are not big. It's two different things."
"..."
"When the weather is good, the Sea Dragon King will still kill people."
These words made Nan Yan's heart sink.
The guide looked at the sea again, and murmured: "But today, the waves are indeed a little bit bigger. Normally, we would not go out to sea with this kind of wind and waves."
Jian Ruocheng frowned.
He said, "Where are the people who do business with us?"
The guide said: "The people who are doing business are not near the sea, and their boats are at sea. If we don't go today, their boats won't wait for us, and we will leave."
After hearing this, Jian Ruocheng fell silent.
His eyes looked at Nanyan.
Nan Yan also looked at him, knowing that he was worried about herself, took a deep breath, and said calmly, "I'm not here with you to drag you down."
"..."
"Let's go."
