Chapter 157 The Crown Prince's Wife May Not Let You Fend for Yourself

One hundred days have passed since the death of the previous emperor. Today is the day when the crown prince ascends the throne, and also the ceremony of Lu Yunhan being crowned as queen.

The two major events took place on the same day, which was enough to show Jiang Huaijing's attention and love for Lu Yunhan, and indicated that she would reach the pinnacle with him.

Those rumors that came from nowhere in the capital that the new emperor was going to marry the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Ding'an into the palace were naturally refuted.

Li Qingqian did not sleep all night last night. In the past few days, the prince and his wife always found various excuses to prevent her from seeing Shen Changyun, and she couldn't help but worry.

According to what Lu Yunhan had agreed with her yesterday, at Jiang Huaijing's coronation ceremony today, it was impossible for her, the wife of the prince of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, to not see her husband.

After changing into the attire of a noble lady, Li Qingqian stayed by Lu Yunhan's side.

She asked the maid to bring a plate of her favorite chestnut cakes and said with a gentle smile, "It's still a while before the auspicious time, so you can talk with me and have some snacks."

Don't hit a smiling person. Li Qingqian also had a faint smile on her face and agreed silently.

But she didn't eat a single bite of the snack. She told Lu Yunhan that she had been having stomach discomfort for a while, so she put the chestnut cake aside and ignored it.

Li Qingqian was absent-minded throughout the entire ceremony, until she saw that Shen Changyun was safe and sound and read out the late emperor's will to pass on the throne in the hall, then she felt relieved.

The second half is Lu Yunhan's coronation ceremony. She slowly came to the main hall on the queen's phoenix carriage. Her makeup was exquisite, and if you looked closely, there seemed to be a thin mist in her joyful eyes.

The ten-year-long love-hate relationship between the two seemed to turn into endless tenderness at this moment.

The coronation ceremony of the new emperor and the ceremony of crowning Empress Yuan were held on the same day. The process was always very complicated and ended at sunset.

After the ceremony, the high-ranking officials who came to watch the ceremony would leave the palace with their families.

Only then was Li Qingqian able to pull Shen Changyun back to a deserted place, throw herself into his arms, and try hard to feel the other's scent.

Shen Changyun was stunned for a moment, then chuckled and said, "Qianqian, what's wrong with you? We just haven't seen each other for five days."

Li Qingqian hid a secret in her heart and said domineeringly, "So what? People say that a short separation is better than a new marriage. I am not allowed to miss my husband?"

Shen Changyun smiled helplessly, "Okay, okay, my family's Qianqian is worried about me, and I am very touched. But it doesn't matter, aren't we about to leave for Xiliang? There is plenty of time for us to get together, right?"

Seeing the playful smile on his face, Li Qingqian blushed, thinking back to the ridiculous things they had done in the carriage on the day they returned to the capital.

She patted his shoulder and said, "You are so unruly. I want to tell you something. You don't have to go with me to Xiliang this time."

Shen Changyun suddenly felt angry, then he tried to control himself and said with gritted teeth, "Why? Qianqian doesn't like me anymore?"

Li Qingqian noticed that something was wrong with him, so she hugged him tighter and stroked his back gently, until she felt his body, which was trembling with anger, calm down.

"How could I not like you? I wish I could tie you to my waist and keep you with me for twelve hours a day. But this time, Yunlang, I need you in the capital."

Hearing her say this, Shen Changyun felt much better, "What do you need me to do?"

"I need you to take care of my elder brother, his wife, and my grandmother in the capital." Li Qingqian thought for a moment, a dark look flashed in his eyes for a moment, "As for Li Zhengkang, let him be. Just don't involve the people I care about."

Shen Changyun understood instantly that Li Qingqian had come to her senses and figured everything out.

He sighed and said, "Qianqian, I promise you, we will be fine."

"I believe you."

No need to say much, just give each other your back.

In a house in the alley in the western suburbs, Zhao Yu took a note from Cui'er, which read: Take action today.

She looked at Cui'er and asked, "I already knew that you were the wife of the Crown Prince, but after what happened, what are you going to do?"

Cui'er has been living a very comfortable life during this period. Her pregnant body has become plump and graceful, and she is no longer as withered and thin as she was in Li Shuyue's hands.

She stroked her belly and said indifferently, "Actually, I've been pregnant for four months."

Zhao Yu was shocked, "But this isn't the young master's..."

Then, looking at the calm smile on Cui'er's face, she understood that this was not Jiang Lin's bloodline.

Cui'er recalled the night when Li Shuyue had just married Jiang Lin, the night when she and the servant who came with the Li family's dowry became engaged.

The servant entered the Li Mansion in the same year as her. He was three years older than her, and they could be considered childhood sweethearts. When she was injured by Li Shuyue, it was the servant who stayed by her side, comforted her, and applied medicine for her.

"I have never had any feelings for the young master. I have tolerated him for more than four months, and I have tolerated him enough. My third daughter is willing to give me a chance to get rid of my slave status, give me money to live on, and is willing to help me and Zheng Lang. She has done me a favor, so I will naturally do things for her."

"So you don't have to worry about me. After the matter is settled, I will follow Zheng Lang and fly far away, and never return to the capital again."

Zhao Yu understood and nodded, "I will also take my sister Awan away from the capital."

This night was the first time that Zhao Yu talked with Cui'er after coming to this house, and it was also the first time that the two of them felt so at ease.

Everyone is moving towards freedom.

That night, Li Shuyue's condition became more serious. Zhao Yu came to her door, listened to the coughing sound inside, and frowned unconsciously.

Then he pushed the door open and brought the medicine in front of her, "Madam, this is the medicine specially sent by the Crown Prince's wife. It is prepared according to the prescription written by Madam Li Ershao."

Li Shuyue covered her mouth with a handkerchief and kept coughing while saying, "I was expelled from the Li family a long time ago. I can't even go to my elder brother's wedding banquet. How can Li Qingqian really treat me well? And Song Ningyan is even less likely to do so? I won't drink the medicine they gave me. Take... cough cough... take it away."

Zhao Yu paused as she was about to feed her medicine, then put the spoon back and placed the bowl of medicine on the table beside her.

"Madam, there is one thing that Ayu has to say," Zhao Yu looked at her, "Although the Crown Prince's wife doesn't love you, if you don't force her, she may not let you die on your own."

Li Shuyue's eyes widened. "What did you say? Are you speaking for Li Qingqian?"

That was her enemy, and Zhao Yu at least called her cousin!

Zhao Yu exhaled from her nose and turned her head away from her. "According to etiquette, I have to call her cousin. I said this because Madam has been kind to me during this period, and I am thinking about Madam and I am thinking about her. If Madam doesn't want to hear it, I won't say it."
