Chapter 210 The Queen of Jin has arrived!
The bridal sedan stopped outside the gate, and Yan Li got into it without touching the ground.
Mu Cang lowered the curtain of the sedan, and looked at the slender figure sitting in the sedan through the faint red veil, and the surging emotions in his heart covered one layer after another. ŴŴŴ.
In a moment, he turned around and got on his own horse.
Several young people who came to welcome the bride also jumped on the horse's back neatly, holding the reins and following Mu Cang.
The red carpet covered all the streets of the imperial city, and the streets were decorated with lights and colorful lights, and gongs and drums were loud, making it very lively.
Master Jiang stood in front of the door, watching the wedding procession leave, and suddenly raised his hand and pinched his eyelids.
"What's wrong?" Elder Jiang noticed his movements and said with a mocking tone, "Do you feel reluctant to leave after you get married?"
"No." Master Jiang frowned, his expression slightly condensed, "It's just that I have an inexplicable feeling, as if something big is going to happen."
"Isn't Yan Li's departure from the Pavilion a big deal? Is there anything bigger than this?" Elder Jiang sneered coldly and turned to walk towards the inner house, "It's good that the evil is gone, and it's better not to come back in the future."
It's good for them that Yan Li doesn't stay in this house.
Luo Shi won't be weird when she sees her, and Jingyue doesn't need to be compared with her anymore.
Ting Yi didn't lower his posture and speak kindly to her.
Without her, the Jiang family has a lot less smoke and miasma, and the whole family is quiet.
The wedding procession left the Jiang family in a mighty manner, as if it stretched for ten miles of streets.
The streets were full of people watching the excitement.
The children were waving their hands excitedly, grabbing the wedding money and peanuts scattered by the bridesmaids.
Eight tall horses led the way, and the young bridesmaids carried red baskets and scattered copper coins and peanuts along the way.
"Congratulations to the Ninth Prince on his wedding and marrying Princess Nanyang!"
"May the prince and the princess live happily together for a hundred years! Live together till old age!"
The people picked up the copper coins and wedding fruits on the ground, and waved their hands happily: "Congratulations to the Ninth Prince and Princess Nanyang on their wedding!"
"May the Mu Kingdom prosper and the Ninth Prince live a hundred years!"
"May Princess Nanyang be healthy every year!"
Mu Cang, dressed in wedding clothes and dignified on horseback, looked like a god, noble and handsome, with an imposing manner.
Hearing the blessings of the people, there was obviously a little more warmth between his eyebrows.
His wish is that his beloved will be healthy and well every year.
May she live a life without illness or disaster, and be safe and smooth.
The noble ladies sitting in the restaurant and teahouse watching the excitement sighed with envy: "The attitude of the Ninth Prince towards Princess Nanyang is so envious that the maids are jealous."
"Who would have thought that the cold and ruthless Ninth Prince would have such a tender side."
"How happy Princess Nanyang will be in the second half of her life."
"Yes, the Ninth Prince is not only of noble status and powerful, but also takes such good care of Princess Nanyang. How many men in the world can compare with him?"
"It's too early to say this now, isn't it?" In the midst of the harmonious envy, a voice that was neither yin nor yang suddenly interrupted, like a basin of cold water poured down, instantly extinguishing the excitement of the women, "It's true that the Ninth Prince is of noble status, so Yan Li is not worthy of him at all."
Several noble ladies turned their heads and looked at him at the same time.
Princess Mu Yun of the Xianwang Mansion walked in, surrounded by several maids, with her chin slightly raised and a proud attitude: "The Ninth Prince takes good care of her, all because this marriage is granted by the emperor."
Several noble ladies looked at each other: "What does the princess mean?"
Mu Yun snorted coldly: "Yan Li is just lucky to be favored by the emperor, otherwise, with her status, she may not be qualified to be a concubine of the Ninth Prince."
Several noble ladies had different expressions, but they all kept silent and did not refute.
The wedding procession gradually walked away and meandered towards Qinglong Street in the east.
…
“Report!” The fast horse went all the way to the outside of the inner city. When the imperial guards stepped forward to stop them, the other party showed the letter and order in his hand, “The Queen of Jin has arrived with the envoys. Go and inform the emperor immediately!”
The deputy commander of the infantry battalion of the imperial guards received the order and immediately jumped on the horse without delay: “A team of ten people, follow me to the palace to see the emperor!”
The layers of checkpoints, the voices were passed on.
The news was sent all the way to the court hall in the palace. The monarch and his ministers who were discussing matters in the morning were interrupted by a loud report: “The Queen of Jin has arrived with the envoys!”
“The Queen of Jin has arrived with the emperor and the envoys!”
“The Queen of Jin has arrived with the emperor and the envoys!”
The voices were passed on one after another, reaching the ears.
"Your Majesty!" Ye Qi, the commander of the Imperial Guards, hurried up to the hall and knelt on one knee. "The Queen of Jin and her envoys are here to visit us. They have now arrived outside the imperial city. Your Majesty, please give us your instructions!"
The ministers in the court immediately whispered to each other.
The news that the Queen of Jin was coming to visit them personally was received a month ago, and the Ministry of Rites had already received the imperial edict and made careful plans.
The distinguished guests finally arrived today.
And they happened to arrive on the day of the Ninth Prince's wedding. Did they want to have a glass of wedding wine?
The Emperor Zhaocheng subconsciously grasped the armrest of the dragon chair: "Didn't they say they would arrive in the evening? How come they are here so soon?"
"I don't know." Ye Qi replied respectfully, "I guess they might be rushing to attend the Ninth Prince's wedding?"
Attending Mu Cang's wedding?
Emperor Zhaocheng coughed lightly, calmed down and sat up straight: "Where is the Ninth Prince's wedding going?"
"The wedding procession has gone to Qinglong Street in East City."
Emperor Zhaocheng pondered for a moment, turned around and ordered: "Call the Ninth Prince."
"Yes."
The eunuch stood in the hall and shouted loudly: "Summon the Ninth Emperor to see you——"
The sound of chanting spread to the outside of the hall.
Emperor Zhaocheng looked around at the court and said lightly: "The Prime Minister and the officials of the Ministry of Rites will go to the city with the Ninth Emperor later to welcome the distinguished guests from Jin State. They must be respectful and polite and not neglectful."
"Your Highness obeys your order."
"Ye Qi, order the Imperial Guards to maintain order inside and outside the imperial city and not make any mistakes."
"Your humble servant obeys your order!"
The ministers keenly smelled a hint of unusual breath and quietly raised their eyes to look at His Majesty the Emperor on the dragon throne in front of them.
Jin State and Mu State are neighbors, but they have been at peace for many years. Why does the emperor look a little nervous?
Emperor Zhaocheng suddenly said: "Come here!"
"Your Majesty."
"Summon Master Jiang and the old lady to the palace!"
"Yes."
