King Jin's birth mother, the Grand Concubine, had long passed away, and the empress dowager had had the chills that prevented her from coming to the palace. If there was no grand matter, His Majesty could not leave the capital as he liked, so he specially sent an official messenger over to announce the decree. Seeing this jade call would be like seeing the and the Empress Dowager.

When she married Luo Shang, she did not hold any huge kowtowing ceremony, and there was no need to take in a concubine this time either. Forget about everything else, just based on her identity as a King Jin, she would naturally be spared.

All of the officials and officials who were supposed to be there had arrived as well. The serenade on the pavilion started to play, and all the seductive dancer s danced on the stage.

The subjects all toasted to the man in congratulation.

The King Hanchao at the side thought of nothing and nodded towards Situ Jingyu who was seated behind the pearl curtain on the stage.

Situ Cha raised his wine cup and said smugly to Luo Ke who was seated beside him. General Luo also came. This old official thanks the General on behalf of King Jin and his daughter. Why is it that the general is drinking alone?

"Humph!" Luo Ke let out a grunt, and forcefully pulled down the cup in his hand, while the servant beside him refilled his wine cup.

Situ XianTian narrowed his eyes.

"At this moment, a prolonged voice came from outside the main hall and reached the main hall." "The Prime Minister has arrived!"

Vice Prime Minister Qiu Shangguang had already arrived early in the morning, and upon hearing the voice of the Prime Minister, all of the ministers seated in the hall stood up and bowed towards the elderly man who was walking over.

Leng Shaoyu, who was on the stage, looked at him with his deep eyes. Yue Dongyang ordered the servants to put away the wedding gift, and also lowered his identity, smiling as he congratulated him. He naturally had the identity of an imperial uncle, and even Leng Shaoyu could not do anything to him easily.

Situ Chenyi secretly gave Yue Dongyang a thumbs up. If not for the Prime Minister's explanation and the many courtiers and ministers who were forced to submit to the Prime Minister, not only would Situ Jingyu's reputation be ruined, the entire King Hanchao would probably not even have any face left for him.

But how could Situ Chuanheng know that, not to mention them, even if the late emperor was still alive, as long as Leng Shaoyu was not willing, no one would be able to do anything about it.

The last bell sound in the great hall rang out. According to the precedent set with Wu Zhou, this concubine should pay her respects to the principal concubine and pay her respects with tea as a sign of gentleness. Just that these three bells had rung, but Prince Jin's Wife had not appeared for a long time, causing the group of impetuous court officials to criticize him.

"It's time already, why hasn't the wangfei come yet? Could it be that she's purposely hiding something?" Such a narrow-minded person actually came from the family of generals. "Interesting." Situ Chenyi laughed mockingly as he put down the cup in his hand, he wanted to openly arouse the discussion of the crowd.

Luo Ke was a martial general, he had always been valiant and resolute, unrivaled in his entire life, yet he could not learn how to calm his heart. He would always be thrown into disarray from his impulsiveness, he slapped the table, and looked at King Hanchao with anger. "Situ, you first. I respect you as an elder. Don't go too far!"

"Tsk tsk, they can't hold themselves back so quickly. They are after all crude military generals, and can't match up to the elegance of us civil servants." Situ Chenghong coldly ridiculed, clearly he wanted to start a fire of war.

Luo Ke was so angry that he stood up from his seat. He glared at the man and wished that he could use the blade on his waist to chop off the man's head.

The man on the platform did not speak up to stop them. His expression was calm, as if he had already expected this. Otherwise, he would not have brought the two of them so close.

As if sensing the man's intentions, Yue Dongyang lightly coughed twice, indicating that it was time to stop.

At this moment, a "Princess has arrived" broke the deadlock.

The crowd turned to look, only to see a woman in a red dress slowly walking towards them. Her steps were gentle, and her movements were graceful. She didn't resemble a woman from a martial general's family, but more like a royal descendant.

Her moth like brows slightly slanted and her eyes were indifferent as if she were everything. Such a delicate face was truly devastatingly beautiful. She was as beautiful as a painting and her steps were gentle as she swayed, emitting a delicate fragrance wherever she went. As such, it really took away the first prize of the day.

None of the ministers wanted to shift their gaze away. They were afraid that King Jin would think that they were eyeing the consort, so they could only sneak a glance at them.

Luo Shang walked to the foot of the stage, rolled up her sleeves and bowed in apology. "I have been delayed because of some matters. If I come late, I hope that Your Highness can atone for it."

Leng Shaoyu, who was sitting on the stage, looked at her calm face and wanted to tear her appearance into pieces.

"The King Hanchao wanted to make things difficult for you, so he coldly snorted. Why would the princess be delayed? If you must come late for the toast, could it be that you do not place the rules of your ancestors in your eyes? "

Situ Chuan thought that this woman was so beautiful, her actions and posture surpassed Jing Yu's. He took the opportunity to pressure her as much as he could.

Luo Shang shook her head at Luo Ke, who was sitting in his seat, signalling for him not to argue with the King Hanchao. He didn't want Situ Cha to keep holding onto her, insisting on making things difficult for her in front of the crowd.

"Why didn't you answer this old official? So what if you're in a high position, how can you be worthy of serving King Jin? " He had never expected that such an aged person would have to make things difficult for a weak girl like her.

The man on the platform also didn't have the slightest intention of helping her.

Luo Shang turned her head and looked at Situ Xianke. As a junior, he naturally greeted politely with a smile and said, "My daughter came late because of this matter, so I am sorry to begin with. Why would King Hanchao bother to pursue this matter at this time of celebration? Isn't this tantalizing my daughter into a state of injustice?

Her tone was tactful, and anyone who was knowledgeable could understand, Luo Shang's intention was to warn him, if he continued to tangle with her, then the person who would ignore the rules of the clan would be him.

"You …" King Hanchao clutched at his chest, actually being stopped by a little girl, it really became a joke.

Yue Dongyang stroked his white beard, and his eyes that were as bright as an old fox carefully sized Luo Shang up. He wanted to test this girl out. He also wanted to see how Leng Shaoyu would protect her, and maybe in the future, she would become a chess piece for him to move all over the King Jin.

Yue Dongyang's face tensed up, and opened his mouth: Unrighteous? What a crime. The King Hanchao is the late emperor's brother, even the King Jin has to give him some face. You are a woman, why are you so bold to say those words that are unjust? And how would they dare to compete with our clan's ancestral laws? "

There wasn't a single person present who didn't turn silent. Situ Xianfeng smiled, pleased with himself.

The man on the platform didn't seem to care at all. He elegantly picked up the teacup on the table and pursed his lips.

Luo Shang's eyes trembled as she looked at him who was on the stage. However, the eyes that he lifted up after a long time had a carefree look, cold as ice.

Luo Ke stood up and said: "I do not understand this throughout my life, I hope that Your Highness, Prime Minister and the other ministers do not blame you."

The reason why Luo Ke was able to act so humbly and humbly was indeed because of Luo Shang.

Although the Vice Prime Minister Qiu Shangming didn't know what the King Jin was planning, he still couldn't help but feel sorry for his royal consort when he saw her being humiliated to such an extent. Qiu Shangming saluted with his hands folded in front, smiling as he said, "Women's opinions are only those of young princesses. There's no need for you to take it seriously. It would be too much of a nuisance to both the prince and the princess."

"Yeah, yeah, Prime Minister Qiu is right." The officials wanted to erase the matter, but they did not expect Luo Shang to take a step forward.

There was still no change on her calm face, and the tension from earlier had completely dissipated. She opened her mouth to speak, "The roots of the clan and the law should be spoken with respect, and no matter what position they hold, the kings of the past should follow suit, and live in peace for a hundred generations. My daughter came late because of personal matters. She was already guilty, so she was heartless. King Hanchao follows the rules of etiquette, but if unintentionally caused this delay, it would be the fault of my daughter, this is unrighteousness. "The talented women of the path of women should have a basic understanding. Luckily, Esteemed Empress Dowager gave me some pointers before in order to gain a basic understanding of the ways of the sect. If there's anything wrong, I ask that Your Highness and Prime Minister be forgiving."

Everyone broke out in cold sweat because of this little girl. Unexpectedly, with her words and actions, and his vast knowledge, Yue Dongyang would no longer be able to argue with his. She directly brought out the empress dowager. If women couldn't speak of imperial law, then the empress dowager's assistance to the late king and His Majesty wouldn't be above Yu Yue's authority.

Qiu Shangming and the other old subjects nodded their heads as they stroked their beards, praising Luo Shang even more. When the King Jin was young, he was already very familiar with the ways of the country, but this woman, who came from a general family, was actually able to understand the Imperial Family so well, she was definitely not simple, it seemed like the King Jin Palace was truly a crouching place for dragons and tigers.

On the stage, Leng Shaoyu elegantly put down the wine cup in his hand, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, not saying a word.

Everyone could not help but nod. With a "pa" sound, it caused the entire audience to quiet down.

A little girl with a glib tongue. How dare she use Esteemed Empress Dowager's name as her own? What a load of nonsense!" Yue Bingyang said, slapping the table with his palm.

Luo Shang looked at him and thought: Could it be that this Yue Dongyang is the person who assassinated Leng Shaoyu time and time again? "She raised his delicate face and gave a faint smile." "Esteemed Empress Dowager is a queen, one that tens of thousands of people revere. Esteemed empress dowager cultivates the body and nurtures virtue, so she should lead the way. My daughter doesn't dare to take her name as an example, but I keep in mind your words. Prime minister, please forgive me!"

Yue Dongyang's wrinkled face turned even more green, he had always been scheming and shrewd, he never thought that he would be rendered speechless by this little girl, this woman, he could not let his live.

Luo Ke nodded and sat down at ease. Situ Chenyi gave an unhappy grunt, then he picked up his wine cup and drank it all in one gulp.

The man on the platform stood up gracefully. The luxurious wedding dress that he wore didn't only accentuate his beauty, but also gave him a sense of elegance and elegance.

Apart from the two prime ministers, all the other officials stood up when they saw him stand up.

The man walked down the stage step by step. With his hands behind his back, he looked at Luo Shang. When he arrived in front of her, he extended his left hand out.

This face was carved with warmth and a smile, but why did it feel so cold? Luo Shang slowly placed her right hand on his palm and followed him up the stairs.

Before reaching the stage, he said, "Such eloquence, no wonder even This King's brother is obsessed with you. How come I didn't realize before that you still have such guts, at This King's wedding... with other men. "

Yue Yang frowned, but stopped in his tracks.
