"I was bored to death staying in this palace. I just wanted to go out and get some fresh air." "I promise, I won't go anywhere, I'll just go and see Qing Er. "Can you?"
Seeing Feng Yu's change in expression, Xuanyuan Zhan couldn't help but be secretly happy in his heart. However, this still won't do. If you are really bored, we will immediately order Shangguan Qinger to come to the palace to accompany you. " Xuanyuan Zhan said as he deserved a beating, "Don't even think about going to posthumous ceremony."
"You …" Feng Yu wanted to scold him, but then she thought, "Fine, consider yourself ruthless!" Feng Yu didn't dare to go against him; otherwise, he would really suffocate to death in this palace.
Ever since Dou Dou came back, Feng Yu suddenly realised that Dou Dou's heart had changed. He had worked hard all day long, almost to the point of becoming the crown prince, and only needed to spend a bit of time with him. As for Xuanyuan Zhan, he was too lazy to look at him.
Seeing Feng Yu's furious expression, Xuanyuan Zhan felt it was funny. He grabbed Feng Yu's hand and pulled him into her lap. Feng Yu was a bit forced. Although this was his territory, there were still palace maids and eunuchs watching over him. Feng Yu couldn't help but feel shy.
Those
How could the palace maids and eunuchs not have this kind of eyesight? Seeing such a scene unfold before them, they could not help but silently withdraw.
Feng Yu looked at Xuanyuan Zhan bashfully, his face full of bashfulness. "What are you doing? Let go. "
On the other hand, Xuanyuan Zhan hugged Feng Yu even more tightly, Feng Yu pushed at him and asked, "What are you doing?" Feng Yu was slightly angry. "Others are watching!"
"Who dares to look?" Xuanyuan Zhan raised his eyebrows, "What's more, look and see where there's no one here."
Only now did Feng Yu realize that the palace maids and eunuchs had already left some time ago.
This Xuanyuan Zhan, when did he become so shameless? Feng Yu could not help but silently curse in his heart.
However, after experiencing the storm, the relationship between Xuanyuan Zhan and Yue Yang had eased up a lot, and the two of them had become more amiable. This made Feng Yu more confident in reminding Xuanyuan Zhan of himself. Even if he really didn't remember his, she would make Xuanyuan Zhan fall in love with his again.
In another month, he would be at posthumous ceremony. Feng Yu had been busy these past few days. Since it was only a month away from posthumous ceremony, time was of the essence, and there were many matters of the posthumous ceremony s. The various departments of the palace would report to Feng Yu every day, and Feng Yu had to listen carefully, to the point where some things that were bad to do or some places that didn't suit one's heart, had to be changed. The Ministry of Rites, the court, the ceremonies that were in charge of the posthumous ceremony's sacrificial rites, as well as the individuals in the palace, all busied themselves until their heads spun.
In the past few days, Feng Yu had been completely confused by these trivial matters.
"Big Sister Feng Yu." Feng Yu was in a daze in her bedroom when Shangguan Qinger's voice suddenly came out.
Feng Yu regained her senses, "Qing Er?"
As expected, when Feng Yu saw this, Shangguan Qinger couldn't help but retort in anger, "You finally know how to come and see me!"
"Okay, okay. "Elder sister." Shangguan Qinger scolded. Isn't Qing Er just here to see big sister! "
"Big sister, congratulations. You'll soon be the empress." Shangguan Qinger was sincerely happy, a lover was finally going to be married off.
"Alright, alright, let's not talk about me anymore." Feng Yu changed the topic. "Let's talk about you. How have you been recently?"
Upon hearing Feng Yu mention him, Shangguan Qinger's face was filled with bashfulness as she stroked her stomach, "I'm very well!" He looked like a kind person who was about to become a mother.
Feng Yu quickly understood. "You have a baby?"
"En!" Shangguan Qinger said shyly.
"Really! Congratulations, it seems like you and Mu Ming really do love each other! " Seeing Shangguan Qinger having her own child, Feng Yu was genuinely happy for her. The two people who loved each other finally had the fruit of their love, which could be considered the happiest thing she had heard these days.
The two of them conversed for a long time within Phoenix Feather Palace, and only when it was late in the night did Mu Ming come to pick up Shangguan Qinger, unwilling to part with them.
Mu Estate.
"I know you miss the empress, but you have to think for the sake of the child in your womb. It's already so late, if I hadn't gone to pick you up, you probably wouldn't have returned." Mu Ming angrily rebuked.
Seeing Mu Ming being so concerned for him, Shangguan Qinger laughed so hard that her mouth couldn't close, "I'm fine. Besides, I'm just going to chat with Big Sister Feng Yu.
"If you aren't in front of me, I won't be able to rest easy at all times." Mu Ming said. The current Mu Ming did not conceal his support for Shangguan Qinger at all. He truly doted on his wife to the bone.
"Alright, I understand." Shangguan Qinger said with a smile.
"Also, the empress has a respected status now. No matter what, we're subjects. You can't call her by her name again in the future." Mu Ming reminded.
"I know." Shangguan Qinger knew that Mu Ming had said something and she wasn't willing to make things difficult for him.
"Sigh!" Shangguan Qinger screamed in shock.
"What's wrong?" Mu Ming hurriedly supported her.
"Nothing?" Shangguan Qinger laughed and said, "He's kicking me."
"Ha ha!" Mu Ming was stunned. So that was the case. Mu Ming reached out his hand and caressed Shangguan Qinger's stomach. "Little Scoundrel, you scared your father to death. You're not allowed to be like this in the future, okay?"
As Shangguan Qinger watched Mu Ming pamper him, her heart was filled with happiness.
The posthumous ceremony had a lot of things to prepare.
The day before posthumous ceremony, he needed to set up a gatekeeper. On that night, the envoys and deputy envoys would be sent to the east gate, and the wives would be ordered to follow the imperial edict outside the palace. There were also envoys and attendants outside the inner and east gate, standing to the south of him and placing the bounty on the table. After the ceremony was over, everyone had to stay in the treasure book for the night.
The day before yesterday, Feng Yu was not as idle as me. She needed to bathe and change her clothes. She had been practicing her phoenix feather very tiredly these past few days, and hadn't had the time to look for Dou Dou for the past few days. Even though Xuanyuan Zhan had sent Lei Yushandian to protect her well, during the month that he was preparing the posthumous ceremony, no one came to bother him.
Actually, Feng Yu did not know that Xuanyuan Zhan had secretly sent someone to warn those women not to disturb Feng Yu, so even if those women wanted to make things difficult for him, Feng Yu did not dare to act brazenly. In the past few days, Rou Meier had calmed down quite a bit, but since she was acting so docilely, Feng Yu always felt that she should not let things go like this. Feng Yu's premonition was right.
On the second day, posthumous ceremony officially began. Early in the morning, Feng Yu was pulled out from under a warm blanket. She washed, dressed, and dressed in clothes. There were all of them, causing Feng Yu to feel dizzy and disoriented.
In the early morning, all the civil and military officials dressed in their official uniforms entered the stage one by one. The emcee, dressed in red, stood outside the drooping arch hall in order, waiting for the posthumous ceremony to begin.
"The auspicious hour has arrived!" The voice of the host resounded throughout the entire imperial city.
Feng Yu was being supported by a palace maid, and as the attendant led the way out, Xuanyuan Zhan saw the Feng Yu that was dressed in luxurious clothing from afar.
The Feng Yu today was wearing a phoenix robe and was accompanied by the Empress's makeup, but even so, Xuanyuan Zhan still felt that her beauty was unable to be hindered by these external objects. Xuanyuan Zhan stood on top of the sacrificial ceremony, waiting for Feng Yu to come over.
The distant Feng Yu saw Xuanyuan Zhan. The current Xuanyuan Zhan was dressed in a dragon robe, had an outstanding posture and was tall and handsome, causing Feng Yu to be unable to shift her gaze away.
"Empress?" The maid next to him stopped Feng Yu and couldn't help but remind him.
Only now did Feng Yu regain her senses after being reminded by the maid. Feng Yu could not help but be vexed in her heart. She had actually seen Xuanyuan Zhan lose focus, it was truly embarrassing. Little did she know that Feng Yu, who was acting like a shy little girl, was looked down upon by Xuanyuan Zhan in the slightest. Immediately after, Xuanyuan Zhan's gaze tensed up, as if he was going to swallow her alive when he looked at her.
Xuanyuan Zhan stretched out his hand like Feng Yu, and Feng Yu raised his eyes to look at Xuanyuan Zhan. Then, he lifted his own hand and placed it in Xuanyuan Zhan's hand. The two of them stood side by side as they walked up the altar.
"We pay our respects to you all." The host's voice rang out. All the officials paid their respects.
"We bow once again."
"Many officials bow three times."
The civil and military officials kowtowed three times before the emperor and queen joined hands on the altar to worship the altar. After the worship of the altar, the emperor and queen had to be escorted by all the officials. Returning to the main hall, he accepted the worship of officials.
"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Empress! Long live the Empress!" The officials paid their respects.
"Everyone, please rise!" Xuanyuan Zhan said.
After that, he had to go to Hongfu Temple to offer sacrifices to the heavens as a sign of his majesty.
Only after going through this process did posthumous ceremony finally complete it.
Night. Phoenix Palace.
"The empress is really beautiful today!" Xuanyuan Zhan rejected the crowd, praising his without any hesitation.
"Your Majesty is very handsome today!" Since you've praised me, I have to praise you as well!
"Handsome?" Xuanyuan Zhan asked doubtfully.
"Handsome means that you are very good-looking." Feng Yu explained.
Even though a memory suddenly flashed through his mind, a girl with blurry facial features was telling him what a handsome face was.
Feng Yu saw Xuanyuan Zhan covering his head, "Did you remember something?" His eyes were filled with hope.
"It's just a few small fragments." He shook his head and wanted to continue thinking about it, but he felt a splitting headache.
"When the wind and rain saw him like this, they could not bear to do so." Forget it, if he really couldn't remember, then so be it. You don't have to push yourself too much. "
Xuanyuan Zhan lifted his head to look at Feng Yu. He could see the affection in Feng Yu's gaze when he looked at him, and his heart couldn't help but feel warm. He leaned over and kissed Feng Yu's lips.
