My Princess Has Been Reborn

Lu Qipei knew that with Qi Yang's mediation, he would be summoned by the emperor again, but he didn't expect that the next interview would come so soon.

In the morning, I dealt with the business of accumulating leave. At noon, I listened to the gossip. In the afternoon, I was planning to continue reviewing the manuscript, but the summons came.The gossiping eyes of colleagues immediately focused on Lu Qipei, but the latter had no time to pay attention to it.

Lu Qipei put down the affairs in hand, and hurriedly followed the summoned palace servants into the palace.

The two, one in front and one behind, walked through the palace gate and the palace road, and went straight to the Xuanshi Hall.

What I saw on the way, Habayashi was majestic, and the palace people were orderly, no different from usual.Only the young man walking on the palace road, seeing the majestic palace of Xuanshi Palace getting closer, let out a breath secretly, but his heartstrings were still tense.

When he reached the outside of the Proclamation Hall, Zhang Jian greeted him in person, but he said with a smile on his face, "Your Majesty is dealing with government affairs, Mr. Lu can wait in the side hall. After His Majesty handles the affairs in hand properly, he will call for him. "

Seeing this posture, she was going to be left alone again.

What can Lu Qipei say?Of course she couldn't say anything, she could only obediently agree and was led to the side hall by the palace staff.There is nothing lacking in the side hall, the tea is prepared early, not to mention, even several plates of pastries are prepared.

It's just that there was no one else in the huge side hall, even the palace servant who had just led the way left after taking her there.

Lu Qipei stood in the hall for a while, finally endured the anxiety in his heart, found a chair to sit down, and poured himself a cup of tea.

The tea is warm, the entrance is just right, and the pastry next to it also exudes an attractive aroma.If it wasn't for the wrong time and place, tasting tea and eating snacks during this good time would actually be much more pleasant than the boring work in the Imperial Academy.

It's just that this kind of comfort is destined not to belong to Lu Qipei today, and the long tea fragrance can't cover up her nervousness at the moment.

However, the emperor deliberately left people alone, and this wait did not last for a while.Lu Qipei entered the palace when the sun was high in the afternoon, seeing the sun gradually slanting towards the west, the scorching summer sun slowly pouring into the palace through the doors and windows, the edict of summoning was still delayed.

After waiting for almost an afternoon, no matter how patient people are, they should be exhausted.But Lu Qipei was different, she was really flustered when she was suddenly summoned to enter the palace, she was afraid of leaving a bad impression on the emperor, which would make her marriage with Qi Yang more difficult.But after being left in the air for an afternoon, she calmed down instead, drinking the already cold tea, she was able to taste it more and more.

He was quietly drinking herbal tea, outside the palace that had been empty and quiet for an afternoon, there were faint footsteps.

Lu Qipei suddenly regained his energy, thinking that the summoned palace servants had finally arrived, but when he listened intently again, he felt something was wrong.Most of the eunuchs served in the Xuanshi Palace, and the palace servants who delivered the decree and led the way before were also servants, but the footsteps were different, light and soft, as if they were women.

Just as he was thinking, Lu Qipei turned his head to look for the sound, and saw a piece of clothes flashing by outside the hall.

The clothes are exquisitely embroidered and colorful, but it is a palace dress.

Lu Qipei immediately thought of Qi Yang, she stood up suddenly, and subconsciously walked towards the gate of the palace.He only took two steps but stopped again. Thinking of his current situation, he retreated after a moment of consideration and sat down again.It's just that my heart has settled down a lot.

This was just a small episode, but as time went by, the emperor couldn't keep people in the palace overnight after all.

So Zhang Jian still came after sunset.He was still smiling, and his shrewd eyes swept across the hall and Lu Qipei: "Lord Lu, Your Majesty has summoned you, please follow me."

Hearing this, Lu Qipei got up and straightened his clothes, then followed Zhang Jian away, looking a little more calm than when he first entered the palace.

All these were seen by Zhang Jian, and he was secretly astounded by the disposition of a young man, but there was no trace of disrespect on his face—he was a smart man, so he naturally knew the emperor's intentions to leave Lu Qipei alone, as well as this Most likely the son-in-law didn't run away.

Princess Qi Yang is different from other princesses. The emperor has many daughters, but only Qi Yang is the only one who has won the holy favor.At least Zhang Jian did not see the emperor worrying about the marriages of other princesses. He only came to His Royal Highness Qi Yang. The concubine she chose was picked on by the emperor, but it was not that the other party was not good enough, it was simply that the emperor was reluctant to marry his daughter.

When Zhang Jian saw this, he understood that His Highness Qi Yang's Sacred Heart was the only one favored by others, and no one else could compare with him.Therefore, even when facing Lu Qipei, he was much more solemn, and he had never been rude to her from the very beginning.

The emperor has a lot of government affairs to deal with every day, but he has been king for more than ten years, and he does not sit at the desk every day without rest.In fact, he had already finished handling today's government affairs, and spent the whole afternoon chatting with Qi Yang, but he did not summon Lu Qipei who was waiting in the side hall.

He waved his hand at Qi Yang and said, "Go, go, go, if you really don't want to go, go behind the screen and wait."

Of course Qi Yang refused to leave. She won the crown prince's words, and today she made up her mind to finalize the marriage.Immediately, he personally handed the teacup to the emperor, flattered her and said coquettishly: "Father, my son-in-law has recognized her as a consort. You can beat her if you want, but don't bully her too much, and scare her away. I'm looking for someone you want!"

Qi Yang, whose mother and concubine died young, was raised at the emperor's knees since childhood, and was enlightened by the prince himself. The relationship between the three is unmatched by others.The emperor has always liked Qi Yang acting like a baby to him, the more natural Qi Yang behaved, the more ironic he felt.

It's just that the daughter grew up after all, and would act like a baby to him for another brat, and the emperor felt more and more upset.Immediately, he chased people away again with a tiger's face: "Let's go, father can still eat him? If this kid is really so cowardly, he is not good enough for my son."

Qi Yang also knew enough was enough, so he stopped talking now.He only smiled flatteringly at the emperor, looked outside the hall, and went behind the screen to wait.

Lu Qipei came very quickly.The young man has a clear temperament and a calm demeanor, even in the face of the emperor, he still has a demeanor that is neither humble nor overbearing... This is what the emperor discovered from the very beginning.He occupies a high position and is full of majesty. Ordinary people will be a little timid when they see him.There was only this young man in front of him, from the very beginning when he saw him, he acted normally, respectful, but not cowardly.

And see you today, after letting her hang out for a whole afternoon, the others may be more frightened, but she still has the same demeanor as before.

To be honest, if this kid hadn't abducted his daughter, the emperor would have appreciated her a lot.It's a pity that there is more Qi Yang among them, the emperor can only see her like a father-in-law sees a son-in-law, apart from being picky, she is not pleasing to the eye.

Lu Qipei bowed to salute, the emperor waited for a while before calling out, and then he didn't say anything else, the first thing he said was to testify.

The emperor didn't have much contact with Lu Qipei, except for Chun Wei's amazing answer sheet, which was the erudition revealed during the lecture two days ago.All this can prove her excellence, but this is not enough for the emperor, he has to choose the best one for his beloved daughter.

After some examination and comparison, from Tiannan to Haibei, from the government to the people's livelihood, Lu Qipei talked with eloquence neither humble nor overbearing.Looking at the appearance of a young man, he is indeed a rare talent. Even the emperor, with a picky heart, gradually showed two points of appreciation in his eyes after hearing it.

The two were talking about the situation in northern Xinjiang when the emperor suddenly asked in a deep voice, "Do you know what I am announcing to you today?"

If someone else heard the words, they would definitely have to think twice, but Lu Qipei said bluntly without thinking: "I have heard rumors in the Imperial Academy today, and your majesty's sudden summons should be for His Royal Highness Qi Yang."

Seeing her calmness, the emperor raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Then what do you have to say?"

Liang Guo is an important scholar, and the monarch and his ministers seldom kneel and worship, but when Lu Qipei heard the words, he suddenly lifted his robe and knelt down.She raised her head, looked directly at the emperor with a pair of clear black eyes, and said, "Your Majesty dares to adore Your Highness, and I implore His Majesty to grant you a marriage."

These words were too straightforward, including Zhang Jian who was standing by the side, couldn't help but look over with his eyelids twitching.

Qi Yang hid behind the screen and heard it, and even stood up abruptly. After two steps forward, Zhi Ting pulled her long sleeves, and then stopped, still looking at the kneeling people outside through the screen.He only pursed his lips and frowned, obviously a little worried.

The emperor outside the screen did not speak, he sat quietly on the dragon chair, his eyes were sharp and deep.The hall suddenly became quiet, as if even the palace people's breathing eased, and the immense power was pressing down on Lu Qipei's head, making people flustered.

Lu Qipei was not at peace, not only facing the majestic oppression of the emperor, but also because the person in front of him was Qi Yang's father.She can be neither humble nor overbearing in the face of imperial power, but she cannot fail to compromise with Qi Yang's father.So she lowered her head slightly, with her back still straight and her attitude still firm, letting the emperor's scrutinizing gaze fall on her, silently waiting for the other party's verdict.

Maybe it was a while, maybe it was a long time, the emperor finally said: "Why do you want to marry my emperor's son?"

Lu Qipei thought for a while when he heard the words, and replied: "No reason, what I have learned and learned is all the same as the emperor, and it can't be counted on by the minister. Only the minister still has a sincere heart for His Highness." After finishing speaking, he paused. Still added: "Your Highness treats me the same way."

Zhang Jian's breathing stopped, and his peeking at Lu Qipei became weird - no one had ever spoken to the emperor like this.

Talking about feelings with the emperor seems a little naive, but Lu Qipei has his own plans.

Qi Yang had already told her that the emperor had no intention of letting her marry into a noble family.One is for her own considerations, and the other is that she probably doesn't want to give any more help to the young and powerful prince.He originally wanted to choose a son-in-law from among the scholars of the current imperial examinations, but Lu Qipei was confident that his talent and learning would overwhelm everyone, and the emperor was not dissatisfied during the examination just now.Then she meets the emperor's criteria for choosing a son-in-law.

Under such a premise, what else could she say?Do you really want to show off your family status and wealth like facing an ordinary old man?Don't be kidding, if she really said that, she might be ordered to be forked out by the emperor on the spot!

However, even though the emperor didn't order the man to be forked out after hearing such an answer, his face turned black visible to the naked eye.

Lu Qipei blinked, not knowing what he said wrong again, so he heard the emperor say: "Qing, step down."
