Chapter 104

On July 14, before dawn, Li Chengjing got up quietly. The eunuch had been waiting outside for a long time. After hearing the prince's summons, he came in with a full set of court clothes in his hand.

Li Chengjing took seven days off for his big wedding. Today's wedding leave is over. He also wants to resume his duties as the crown prince. He goes to court every day to listen to the government. All his itineraries are like the emperor's.

In the early days, it was carried out before dawn, and outside Chengtian Hall Square, no matter how bad the weather was, it could not be cancelled easily. Moreover, the early Dynasty was solemn. If they were not dressed properly or behaved improperly in the early Dynasty, they would be impeached for a lifetime by Yan Guan. It was not joking that they would receive training or lose their official positions. As for being late, don't even think about it.

Li Chengjing, as a model prince in the world, was even more strict. The eunuchs were all worried. The prince had already told them to be quiet when they were ready to go to court. They must not wake up the princess.

Stab Jinxiu inside, Cheng Yujin lying asleep, did not realize that Li Chengjing is not. She turned over to the other side, just facing the original position of Li Chengjing. She suddenly felt that the person in front of her was not there. Cheng Yujin was shocked and suddenly woke up.

The only thing I can see is the quilt with the remaining warmth. I'm no longer here.

Cheng Yujin thought that today was the first day of Li Chengjing's marriage, so she immediately sat up and put on her shoes. When Li Chengjing heard the voice in the tent outside, he immediately raised his hand to signal the eunuchs to stop. Then he turned back and went to the bedroom hall to lift the Bed Tent: "how did you wake up?"

"Your Highness is going to court today. As a princess, how can I be absent?"

"No harm." Li Chengjing said, "it's still a long time to go to court in the future. It's not a big deal. It's still early now. Go back to sleep for a while."

"No Cheng Yujin firmly shook her head, "on such an important day, I will personally send my highness to the court."

She had already stood up and put on a home-made dress from the wardrobe. Her long hair was not tied up, and she was pressed in the clothes. Cheng Yujin didn't care much. She put her hand around her back neck and gently lifted it. Her head was like a waterfall, casting a beautiful arc. Cheng Yujin didn't take care of her hair any more. She lowered her head and buttoned up her clothes. Then she walked to Li Chengjing with a smile: "Your Highness."

Li Chengjing looked at the series of actions and Cheng Yujin came to him as if she was doing something she should have done. Her eyes became soft: "good."

When the crown princess came, all the eunuchs naturally gave way. They stood on both sides with their clothes in their hands. The clothes they were going to use were presented to the front. Cheng Yujin stands on tiptoe, puts on the red Luoyi for Li Chengjing, presses the collar carefully, then picks up the leather belt from the brocade plate, goes around Li Chengjing's waist, and fastens it in the front.

When Cheng Yujin bows to tie his waist, Li Chengjing also looks down at her. The crown prince's court dress is red. Li Chengjing is very vigorous and handsome. His sleeves are very wide. At this time, in order to cooperate with Cheng Yujin, his arms gently spread out on both sides, and his long sleeves naturally fall down, as if he could encircle Cheng Yujin with his hand.

Cheng Yujin's delicate face was reflected in front of the crimson court clothes, and her eyebrows and eyes were more and more picturesque. She lowered her head to buckle the leather belt, and her eyebrows and eyes were very serious, which was the opposite of the look when she lifted her hair from her collar just now.

The crown prince's court clothes, which symbolize power and status, and the beauties who stand on his chest and dress for him by hand, will be in his arms as long as he joins hands.

Cheng Yujin buckled the leather belt, took the knee covering, jade pendant and ribbon from the brocade plate, and tied them on the belt one by one. After doing all this, Cheng Yujin stepped back two steps, took the crown from the last brocade plate, raised her head and said with a smile to Li Chengjing, "Your Highness, please bow your head."

Li Chengjing gave her a deep look and lowered her neck slightly. Cheng Yujin tied the crown to her hair and put the black lace around her ears and buttoned it to her chin.

At this point, the court uniform was put on. The people of ciqing Palace are waiting outside the door. Li Chengjing said, "I'm leaving. It's still early. You don't have to go out. Go back to sleep. "

Cheng Jin shook her head and said, "I still want to pick up the cloak from her royal highness."

Li Chengjing had to let her. Cheng Yujin follows Li Chengjing and stops at the main gate of Ciqing palace. Ciqing palace is not far from the upper court. Li Chengjing didn't take a chariot and went there on foot. He walked out two steps, and seemed to have a feeling of looking back. He saw Cheng Yujin standing in front of the palace with a blue cape and a lantern.

At this moment, the morning light is dim, and Cheng Yujin is warmly and gently illuminated by a fire. She stood in the blue light, with many maids on both sides and red walls and green tiles behind her. Her skin was white and her hair was like ink, as if the stars had fallen into the world by mistake.

Seeing Li Chengjing turning back, Cheng Yujin nods and smiles: "Your Highness, I'll wait for you here."

Cheng Yujin didn't return to the palace until Li Chengjing's figure was no longer visible. Now it's not bright. After this, Cheng Yujin can't sleep. She simply changes her clothes and takes a bath. She reads the meeting book in her study. When it's time, she goes out to greet empress dowager Yang and empress Yang.

The emperor ruled the country with filial piety, and respected his mother, Empress Dowager Yang. As a crown princess, Cheng Yujin's greeting to the Empress Dowager has become a daily routine. One is in the West and the other is in the East. The distance is not small. When Cheng Yujin comes to the palace, she sees many servants stopping in front of the palace.Cheng Yujin recognized the empress and Empress Dowager's chariot at a glance. Empress Yang and Empress Dowager Yang are cousins. It's not surprising that the empress appeared in the palace. Another person who is qualified to ride in the Empress Dowager's chariot, I'm afraid there are only a few people up and down the palace.

Cheng Yujin came in. Sure enough, she had many familiar faces. The empress was with the Empress Dowager. Yang Qian's wife, Yang Yan's sister, and Dou Xiyin, Yang Yan's daughter, were all there.

After Cheng Yujin came in, she was shaken by the Yang family in this room. She just glanced at it and laughed. Dare to love a room of people, only she does not surname Yang, do not know that the sheep into the wolf nest, or jiuzhanque nest.

Cheng Yujin didn't show any diffidence in such a large number of people. She was still slow and steady, and should salute: "my son's minister, please send greetings to the Empress Dowager and the empress. Mrs. Yang is very well, Mrs. Dou is very well. "

Mrs. Yang is Mrs. Yang Qian, the wife of Yang Shoufu. Yang Qian is the sister-in-law of Empress Dowager Yang. Her two daughters, the eldest daughter Yang Yan, married Dou DA and the second daughter Yang Miao. She entered the palace and became a stepqueen.

Dou Xiyin is the daughter of Yang Yan and Dou da. However, Dou Xiyin seldom lives in the Dou family. He spends half of the year in the palace and the other half in the Yang family. He only goes back to the Dou family to show his face during the Spring Festival, and then moves back to his grandparents' home immediately. People who don't know think that Dou Xiyin's home is in Yang's house, and going to Dou's house is a guest.

The Yang family has two queens in a row, and this generation of the Yang family has no daughter. Yang Yan and Dou Xiyin's plan is obvious. Even Dou Xiyin thinks of herself as the Yang family. In the past ten years, Dou Xiyin has been the default candidate for the crown princess in Beijing.

It's a pity that Dou Xiyin's dream of Crown Princess and the second prince's dream of crown prince failed. There have always been people in the crown prince's position. The real prince who has been missing for many years has come down from the sky and brought his own princess. Many people's dreams have been shattered.

When Yang Yan and Dou Xiyin meet Cheng Yujin on such an occasion, their expressions are extremely delicate.

Empress Dowager Yang looks up and calls Cheng Yujin to get up. After the palace people invited the crown princess to sit down, Yang Yan said with a smile: "it turns out that this is the crown princess. I've heard about her for a long time. I only saw her from afar on the day of the Palace Banquet. Today, when I look closer, she is really a rare beauty. It's my wish to see you today. "

From childhood to adulthood, many people praise the beauty of Cheng Yujin. Once upon a time, it didn't matter. Now she has become the crown princess. Yang Yan's position for her is just a rare beauty?

Cheng Yujin's smile did not change. With Yang Yan's rare beauty, she said, "Mrs. Dou's praise is just a name in the boudoir. Now that I have become the crown princess, naturally I can't live up to the trust of your majesty and his highness. When I am virtuous and behave seriously, I will set an example everywhere, and my appearance is a virtual thing. "

Yang Yan is choked by these words. Seeing that Cheng Yujin is in a bad mood, she inevitably wants to stab her. So she deliberately says that Cheng Yujin says "a rare beauty" to show that she is only taken in by the crown prince. Unexpectedly, Cheng Yujin admitted that she was beautiful, and said modestly that she wanted to be virtuous, and that her appearance was modest.

Ah bah, who wants to praise her as a beauty? How dare she respond?

However, Qi returned to Qi. Looking at the face and posture, no matter Yang Yan or Dou Xiyin could say anything to refute.

The Yang family is very powerful, but it only started from empress dowager Yang. The appearance and temperament of their children can't be compared with those princes and nobles who have been in good condition for several generations. Especially Cheng Yujin sitting here, from appearance, to manners, to momentum, all properly pressure Yang family.

There is no more beautiful and dignified Crown Princess than she is.

Dou Xiyin is very unhappy with Cheng Yujin. She hasn't married her second cousin yet, but a princess emerges out of thin air and blocks her way. Even her second cousin has become less important. How can Dou Xiyin bear this kind of anger? She had planned to let her aunt take it out on her second cousin, but after a long time, she didn't find an inappropriate place in Cheng Yujin.

Empress Yang looks at Cheng Yujin. Her eyes hurt. Her face is cold and light. She doesn't even look in the past. The Empress Dowager Yang looked up and said, "crown princess."

"Yes." Cheng Yujin stood up and said, "what advice does the Empress Dowager have?"

"The crown prince and the imperial concubine have great responsibilities. Since you have become the crown prince's official concubine, you should abide by the rules everywhere, so as not to lose the face of the royal family. When the crown prince was lost, the family and the emperor were worried about it day by day. Now they have finally found it back, which can be regarded as a solution to the heart knot between the family and the emperor. Since you are the one who asked him to marry you in person, it must be very agreeable to the crown prince. In this way, it will be just around the corner for you to open the royal family as soon as possible. "

When it comes to heirs, Cheng Yujin can't and can't help but bow her head and say, "I remember what the Empress Dowager taught me."

She said she remembered it, but she didn't say she could do it.

With drooping eyes, Empress Dowager Yang said, "after all, you are the crown princess, which is different from the ordinary princess. Sooner or later, this palace will be handed over to you. You should learn how to deal with the six palaces. "

This is not a kind word. Since ancient times, the crown prince is hard to be. It's too weak, and it's even more difficult to be outspoken. The emperor is now in the prime of spring and autumn. Empress dowager Yang said that the palace would be handed over to the Crown Princess sooner or later. What would the emperor think?

Cheng Yujin reacted very quickly and immediately said, "I'm sorry. It's the empress's business to command the six palaces. It's beyond the rules for others to intervene. How can the children's ministers knowingly commit such mistakes? What's more, your majesty is prosperous in spring and autumn, and the empress is also in her prime. There are many things that her children's ministers don't understand. She just wants the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager to teach her children's ministers how to do things. In the future, we will ask the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager to give us advice. "In Cheng Yujin's words, "knowingly committed crimes" is skillfully used, and only a few words indicate the position of Donggong. Later, she will undoubtedly kick the ball back to empress Yang and Empress Dowager Yang, because no matter what she does, she "learns from empress dowager".

Empress Dowager Yang is not happy after hearing this, but Cheng Yujin's words are high sounding, and Empress Dowager Yang can't find out what's wrong with her. Empress Dowager Yang said, "it doesn't matter. Even the eldest daughter-in-law of an ordinary family has to learn to help her mother-in-law manage the house. What's more, you are the crown princess? It's just that the Mid Autumn Festival is coming. These days, you can help the queen to take care of the Mid Autumn Festival. "

Empress Dowager Yang has made up her mind to embarrass Cheng Yujin. Since the other party takes the initiative, Cheng Yujin has no reason to avoid it. She gave a leisurely salute and said, "since it's the order of the empress dowager, I should obey it."

It's not empress dowager Yang's request that she should obey the order.

Empress Dowager Yang frowned. After some fighting, Empress Dowager Yang didn't take advantage of her words, which made her very depressed. She thought, it's just eloquence. It's not just lip service to manage the harem. In particular, Cheng Yujin is famous but has no right. It's impossible to have a good mid autumn festival banquet. When Cheng Yujin makes a mistake at the Mid Autumn Festival banquet, Empress Dowager Yang wants to see how the east palace will end.

But empress dowager Yang was stereotyped, after all, the heart is not happy. She deliberately hung Cheng Yujin for a while, but Cheng Yujin was always not arrogant and impatient, and she had no abnormal color. She behaved well and had no improper behavior. Empress Dowager Yang couldn't find a fault, so she had no choice but to send her away: "princess, since you are in the palace, you should serve the prince. I don't need you here. Go back first. "

Cheng Yujin declined and saluted slowly: "yes. I'm leaving. "

After Cheng Yujin left, Dou Xiyin frowned and asked, "grandma, why did you let her go back like this?"
