Suburb·High Terrace

Civil servants and generals were all arranged in order, and tens of thousands of soldiers stood at attention, three stories high.

The upper level is dominated by heaven and earth, the second level is the sun, moon, stars, clouds, rain, wind, thunder, mountains and rivers, and the third level is the gods transformed by humans!

A large number of offerings such as jade, silk, whole cattle, whole sheep, whole hogs, wine, fruits, and dishes are displayed in front of the shrine. There are more than a hundred vessels for holding sacrifices and various ritual vessels used.

King Lu holds a heaven-sacrifice document, wears a dragon robe, and a dragon crown on his head. Surrounded by green energy, he steps forward, step by step.

Arriving at the altar, he prayed to heaven: Prince Xu has lost his virtue, the world is in chaos, treacherous ministers are in power, and the country is in ruins. In response to the destiny of heaven, I gather the people to use force. May the emperor, the queen, and her family..."

Originally, the sky was covered with dark clouds and thunder was faint, and the ministers and generals looked heavy-faced. But as King Lu bowed in obeisance, the sky became clear and clear, and some people shouted: "Auspiciousness, auspiciousness, King Lu has ascended the throne, and the auspiciousness coming from heaven is a sign of destiny." "

"Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live." The ministers all knelt down and shouted in salute.

Then he drove back to the city and worshiped in the temple.

Then Danbi's music started, and everyone filed in solemnly according to their rank, shouting "Long live" together. At this point, the ceremony was completed.

King Lu waved his hand, and Eunuch Liao stepped out, took out the imperial edict, and read: "The prince assassinated the late emperor and plotted to usurp the throne. In order to uphold the destiny of heaven, King Lu could not ascend to the throne. It is difficult for heaven to make peace..."

The imperial edict of ascending the throne will be announced to the world.

With the sound of reading aloud, all the officials knelt down to listen. The blind Taoist faintly heard the dragon's roar, trembled, and looked up secretly.

"King Lu ascended the throne, but was dethroned from the royal title originally given by the court. He was disconnected from Da Xu's dragon energy. He relied entirely on military energy for support. As a result, the dragon energy was mixed with demon energy."

"The Dragon Qi Blessed Field has been born along with it, and the foundation of the Reincarnation Platform is here."

Early morning·Elder Princess Mansion

The sky was still dark, with only one morning star hanging in the east, slowly pushing the sky into a gray world, but the house was full of people and bustling.

The room was lit with bright candles, and the maids and maids were busy cleaning it. I saw one maid sweating, and she just wiped it with a handkerchief and continued to clean it.

The big red quilts were folded, and the quilts were even embroidered with the words "happy" in gold, bringing a strong sense of celebration.

The eldest princess stood, looking at the big red quilt with gold threads. She suddenly remembered that she had been looking forward to the little princess getting married, and now that she was really getting married, she felt a sense of reluctance, and her eyes turned red. She stretched out her hand and touched the quilt.

On this side, there is a dazzling array of furniture, including gold lacquer cabinets, canopy gauze curtains, chiming clocks, kiln utensils, gold and jade Ruyi, red sandalwood screens, bronze mirror stands, mouthwash basins, coffee tables, piano cases, bookshelves, and more. Boxes of jewelry, these are the dowry of the little princess.

The eldest princess looked at the dowry. In her eyes and in her memory, she still looked like the little princess when she was a child. She was pregnant for ten months, breastfed and grew up.

"The memory is just like the beginning. I didn't want you to leave home if I didn't want Qianye. How could my mother be willing to let you leave? Even if you really grow up, you will still be my mother's heart."

Seeing the eldest princess' sadness, the nanny persuaded her in a low voice: "Eldest princess, it is a blessing that the little princess married Pei Zhenjun and got her wish. There are several people in this world who can be better than Pei Zhenjun, so why should you be sad."

"Women, you have to get married!"

Reaching out to wipe away her tears, the eldest princess remained silent and exhaled: "Qianye is my heart and soul, and I can't let go of her. Besides, being too outstanding may not be a good thing."

The eldest princess murmured that this was a heart-breaking statement. The incident of the prince-in-law was still clear in her mind back then, and she did not know who was responsible for killing the prince-son-in-law in the end.

After listening to this, Mammy's face changed, she looked around and advised: "Eldest Princess, this is not allowed to be said, and today is the little princess's happy day, how can she say such a thing?"

The eldest princess was silent for a long time after listening to her mother's words, and nodded: "You and I will supervise the work of these maids, so as not to touch them too much."

As the eldest princess spoke, she checked the packing part. She was very meticulous and could not be sloppy at all. Then she found that a bottle was slightly broken, and her face darkened.

"Why is this bottle broken? Go and replace it with a new one immediately." The eldest princess said coldly, and someone immediately came forward to take the bottle and replace it.

After finishing this task, the eldest princess suddenly felt a little dizzy. She couldn't help but stretched out her head, which was supported by her delicate white fingers. The nanny who followed her stepped forward to support her: "Your Highness, are you okay?"

With her black hair hanging down and her thin hands on her forehead, the eldest princess turned pale and waved: "It's okay, you continue to supervise."

After hearing this, Mammy felt distressed for a while and said: "Your Highness, you have been busy all night. Please take a rest. We, the servants, have done all these things to avoid exhaustion."

"What are you still doing? Why don't you serve ginseng soup?"

A small bowl of ginseng soup was brought up and she drank it. The eldest princess squinted her eyes slightly, raised her eyelashes slightly, and her chest heaved. She felt much better. She waved her hand: "No need. After I have been busy for a while, I won't have to be busy anymore."

"Hey," Grandma sighed after hearing this. These things were packed in boxes and loaded into ten cars, forming a long motorcade.

small building

The big red candle was lit, illuminating the room brightly.

The original plan was for the young princess to fake her own death to escape, but she never had the chance. Until now, when the prince ascended the throne, although he could not openly marry the matchmaker, he had tacitly allowed the young princess to get married. Therefore, the actual wedding banquet was completed at the eldest princess's palace.

A big red quilt, two people in a pink tent, their faces cannot be seen clearly.

Pei Ziyun stood up and dressed, while the little princess who was sleeping in the quilt slipped off following Pei Ziyun's movements, revealing her crystal clear skin with many hickeys on it. She woke up at this moment and reached out to gently lift the quilt. Pull, cover your body.

Although they already had skin-to-skin contact, the little princess was still shy, blushing and hiding under the quilt.

"Get up, mother must still be waiting for us." Pei Ziyun stood up, and a maid came forward with a slightly red face to help her get dressed.

"You put on your clothes first and then I get up." The little princess was hiding under the quilt like a shy cat. Seeing this, Pei Ziyun couldn't help but smile, grabbed the little princess's hand, lifted a little of the quilt, and looked at the little princess. He kissed her on the forehead before going out.

The little princess was stunned for a while before she woke up. She glanced around and saw the maid with envy on her face, whispering: "Quick, help me up."

Immediately, several people helped her get dressed. The little princess wore a golden butterfly hairpin and shook her body gently. Her cheeks were slightly red, making her look even more shy and beautiful.

Seeing her coming out, Pei Ziyun felt his heart heat up and reached out to hold her.

When the venue was empty, the eldest princess had been waiting for her for a long time. Her face was haggard and her eyes were a little red. She looked like she had been working hard all night.

"Qianye" the eldest princess called as soon as the little princess arrived. The little princess immediately ran forward and threw herself into the arms of the eldest princess.

"Mom, I can't let you go." The little princess reluctantly buried her head in the arms of the eldest princess. The eldest princess couldn't help but stroke the little princess's long and silky hair and said, "When a woman grows up, she will always get married."

At this time, he looked at Pei Ziyun, saw him saluting, and said: "Pei Ziyun, today I will hand over Qianye to you. Qianye is the princess, but you know how much he has sacrificed for you."

"I have nothing to ask for, I just ask you to treat her well, love her, and cherish her."

Pei Ziyun listened and said calmly: "Mother-in-law, I love Qianye and I will never make her sad."

"That's good, Qianye, you are a rich man at home, so you may not be able to adapt to going out. Mother, I have prepared some furniture for you, and you can bring your personal maid with you, so as not to be left unattended and bullied."

The eldest princess gave instructions. The little princess listened and looked at the pile of furniture. She burst into tears and covered her face with her sleeves. Seeing that it was getting late, she bowed to the eldest princess: "Mother, I'm going."

When the eldest princess heard this, her eyes turned red. Although she knew she could come back just by going to Liujin Island, she couldn't help but shed tears.

"mother"

For a moment, both of them were crying and reluctant to part with each other.

Pei Ziyun bowed again, stood up and said, "I have asked Ren Wei to build a garden on Liujin Island. Although it cannot be hidden in a golden house, the garden can still be used. I will not wrong Qianye."

"Mother-in-law has thought about it, and she can spend the winter on Liujin Island - it's warm in winter and cool in summer. It's really a good place to stay healthy."

Pei Ziyun has recorded that according to modern standards, Liujin Island’s coldest month is no less than 15 degrees and the hottest is no more than 30 degrees. It can be said that it is warm in winter and cool in summer. It is very comfortable and is a good place to escape the summer heat and travel east.

At this moment, it was dark, and there was the faint sound of horse hoofbeats. Immediately, someone reported: "Princess, True Lord, hundreds of horses from Shence Camp have arrived, waiting for True Lord to go."

"Let's go!" It was the eldest princess, wiping her tears at this moment. Suddenly the door opened, and the convoys drove out one after another.

"Go out and go directly to the pier before dawn. Alas, this is really unfair to you." Pei Ziyun warned: "Don't stop at sea, go directly to Liujin Island. Everything is arranged there."

"The emperor wants me to go on an expedition. This is official business. I will come back as soon as I finish my errand."

"I understand, husband, be careful." The little princess was jealous, but she still turned around and got into the car. She saw servants and soldiers escorting her around, rushing to the dock to board the boat.

Seeing her motorcade go away, Pei Ziyun looked back and bowed to the eldest princess again, then turned and headed towards the cavalry.

"True Lord." As soon as Pei Ziyun passed by, Baiqi came up to meet him. One Qiu led the horse and handed him the whip. Pei Ziyun took it and jumped on the horse.

Finally, he took a deep look at the direction of the motorcade and the eldest princess's mansion, sighed, turned around and rode away.

Under the darkness of night, the cavalry gathered to keep up with them. Then they ran out of a street and saw hundreds of cavalry. The one in the middle was the thirteen-year-old Prince Chengshun. It was different from the last time. Although he was still young, he was full of energy. Such heroic spirit, Pei Ziyun couldn't help but be startled.

"True Lord, seven thousand knights are waiting outside the city. Father's edict must be carried out quickly. We are young and alone, and it is all up to True Lord to quell the chaos." Prince Chengshun arched his hands and said solemnly.

Pei Ziyun didn't hesitate and said: "Let's go!"

Following the order, the cavalry immediately dispatched, and a stream of iron with torches flowed out of the city.
