Quick Time Swallowing Rules

Xu Yan, Su Xing, Li Xiuyun, Mrs. Su and others knelt in the main hall, waiting for Eunuch Li to finish reading the imperial decree. Except for Xu Yan, the whole family hadn't reacted yet.

Li Defu looked at the group of people kneeling on the ground, and finally stopped his eyes on Xu Yan who was holding the imperial decree. Thinking of the way His Majesty looked at Xu Yan in Xinuang Pavilion, he had a plan in his heart, and then he flattered him. He said, "Master Su, it's cold on the ground, get up quickly."

Xu Yan was not hypocritical, and stood up following Eunuch Li's words. The bluestone bricks on the ground were indeed cold and hard, and his knees hurt a little.

"Thank you, Eunuch Li, for coming to announce the decree in person today, Qin Xin." Xu Yan thanked Eunuch Li, then turned his head and called out to Qin Xin who was still kneeling. He took out a bulging purse.

Xu Yan took it and put it in Eunuch Li's hands: "Please trouble Eunuch Li."

Li Defu didn't refuse either, and after taking the money bag, he bowed to Xu Yan again: "Master Su, the miscellaneous family will not stay any longer, please take good care of your body, sir."

"Naturally, Eunuch Li, go slowly."

It wasn't until Li Defu came out of the gate of the Su family that Su Xing came back to his senses. Looking at his son who was gorgeous and extraordinary in front of him, he said, "Your Majesty really has a discerning eye."

Xu Yan was amused by him, covered his mouth and winked at him: "Father..."

Li Xiuyun also looked at her precious son. Unlike Su Xing, her eyes were mixed with joy and worry. She was happy that the rumors and rumors brought about by her son and King Cheng's dissolution of engagement would dissipate with this imperial decree. What worried was the emperor's Love is always unpredictable, whether her precious son will live well after entering the palace: "Yu Xi, you are willing to enter the palace."

Xu Yan was a little surprised when he heard Li Xiuyun's question, but he understood a little bit when he saw the worried look on her face: "Mother, Yu Xi is naturally willing. My son thinks it's very good for a man like His Majesty."

"Really..." Li Xiuyun looked at him, and stepped forward to caress his face with one hand: "In a blink of an eye, you are so old, and you are going to get married. Originally, I wanted to keep you at home, but then... .Now it's even more impossible."

"Auntie..."

"Okay, let's go in. Your Majesty has set the date on the seventh day of July. Although there is still more than a month left, Yu Xi is going to be a queen. We can't be careless about what we need to prepare, and we should discuss it carefully." Su Looking at the mother and son, Xing opened his mouth. Although he was also reluctant to let his son enter the palace, he watched His Majesty grow up, and he was at ease in his character and temperament.

The old lady and Aunt Chunlan stood aside, with unclear expressions on their faces. No matter how unhappy the old lady was, she knew that her grandson could become a queen. In the future, when she was in Shengdu, the old ladies from other families would respect her when they saw her. , No matter how sad my heart is, I still admit it, but Aunt Chunlan is different. It was not easy for his son to sit in the seat of Princess Cheng, but this Su Yuxi was taken a fancy to by the current emperor within a few days, and he directly promised him in the future. This is clearly intended to slap Yu Yue in the face, which makes her very uncomfortable.

Looking at the three people talking together, Aunt Chunlan tightly squeezed the veil in her hand unwillingly.

Eunuch Li returned to the palace after announcing the imperial decree, and saw that the Minister of Rites, who had been proclaimed by the emperor to the imperial study room, was writing vigorously. His Majesty would correct him from time to time and revised it several times before he was satisfied with the Minister of Rites. Go back and post it right away, and make sure that the people of the entire Dazhou know that he is going to marry Su Yuxi, the eldest son of the Su family, as the queen.

The Minister of the Ministry of Rites immediately kowtowed. You must know that His Majesty hates the people in the Ministry of Rites the most. When you see them, they don’t have a good face, which makes the Ministry of Rites become more and more embarrassing. If there is an opportunity, we must do things properly.

"Your Majesty, today my maidservant went to the Su Mansion to proclaim the decree and saw Mr. Su. Mr. Su looks good, and he is also happy to receive the imperial decree." Eunuch Li hurriedly told Zhou Subei what he had seen and heard, and then thought of something: "But the servant just watched , the concubine of the Su family doesn't respect Mr. Su very much."

"Really, it's just something that can't be put on the stage." Zhou Subei didn't say the last half of the sentence, but the meaning was already very clear. Since he didn't respect his baby, he should just disappear.

When the imperial list was posted, it immediately attracted a large number of onlookers. After looking at the above content, they were all a little surprised. Their majesty was going to marry the queen, and it was not someone else. It was during this time that the people of Shengdu The eldest son of the Su family who is discussing in private.

"Your Majesty is going to marry the eldest son of the Su family, that's..."

"If you want me to say, the eldest son of the Su family is also compatible with His Majesty. You don't know that the appearance of the eldest son of the Su family is really handsome. I have lived for most of my life, and I have never seen someone who is more handsome than him in all these years of travelling. Mr. Su looks better."

"Really, is the eldest son of the Su family really so good-looking?"

"It can be fake. A few months ago, Mr. Su took a group of servants and maidservants to the street. I saw one from a distance, and I was astonished."

"Then why did Prince Cheng resign and marry the second son of the Su family? Could it be that the second son of the Su family looks better?"

"How is it possible? It's just some tricks. It is said that at the garden party on the fifth day of May, King Cheng and the second son of the Su family had an affair, and the eldest son of the Su family and a group of young masters and young ladies smashed it on the spot. After that, the eldest son Su was divorced." In fact, it was Mr. Su who took the initiative to propose the dissolution of the engagement, but after all, Mr. Su was kind-hearted, otherwise he would still be a princess, and it would be fine if he didn't be sunk in the pond. Mr. Su's words can be regarded as good people and rewards .”

Everyone was still talking about it, but a woman dressed as a servant girl in Cheng Wang's mansion quickly picked up the cake she just bought and left.

The servant girl hurried all the way back to Prince Cheng's mansion, and went straight to Su Yuyue's courtyard, and saw Su Yuyue kneeling on the ground: "Princess, this servant just heard outside that His Majesty is going to marry Mr. Su as queen."

"What did you say?!" Su Yuyue was startled and angry when she heard these words, and threw the teacup in her hand towards the servant girl.

"Princess calm down, princess calm down, servant girl, servant girl just heard about it." The maidservant was trembling with fright at his appearance, kneeling on the ground and banging her head loudly.

"Go down, I want to be quiet." Su Yuyue's eyes were dark, she didn't know what she was thinking, the servant girl looked at him and felt cold in her heart, originally thought that the princess was kind-hearted, but she didn't expect It's just a person who is kind on the surface but vicious on the inside.

The maid stepped back, and when she reached the door, she glanced at Su Yuyue who was sitting on the stool with an ugly face, bit her lip, and left immediately.

When Zhou Sudong returned to the room, he saw Su Yuyue who was sitting blankly by the table, and then saw the teacup that had been thrown on the ground and hadn't been cleaned up yet. He frowned slightly: "What's the matter, why did you drop the teacup?"

Hearing Zhou Sudong's words, Su Yuyue came back to her senses and said melancholy: "It's just that the tea is too hot, I burned my hands, and I didn't hold it firmly."

"Really, be careful in the future, I'll go to the study first." Zhou Sudong left after finishing speaking. During this period of time, he had an extremely unhappy life. After losing his official position, the minister who used to bow and bow when he saw him, now alone Everyone who met him was like a stranger, just saluted lightly and it was over, not to mention the few brothers who were overwhelmed by him, not to mention the second child who had been at odds with him, even the former Even the polite fifth child will sneer at him when he sees him. Now his status among the royal relatives has become very delicate. His status is there, but he doesn't have the slightest right. Not being able to get a new official position is a problem.

Having never lived such a life, Zhou Sudong didn't seem to want to coax Su Yuyue when he was upset these few days. When he arrived at the study, he called a few of his confidants and staff to discuss how to return to the court.

The seventh day of the seventh lunar month is a day when everything is suitable. Three days earlier, the people in Shengdu were busy. The government sent half a bolt of red cloth to each family early on for the grand wedding of the emperor and empress. On the day of the wedding, the whole city was filled with bright red on the day of the wedding.

Xu Yan changed into the bright red robes sent by Zhou Subei, embroidered with a phoenix flying high with gold thread, his black hair was not tied up, and Qin Xin carefully lifted his hair on both sides and sent it to the back editor Complicated and fancy, then both sides were tied together with a red ribbon, and Xu Yan was given a forehead ornament inlaid with fine rubies from the palace. The largest ruby ​​in the middle reflected Xu Yan's forehead. His face made him more beautiful: "Master, this is the last time Qin Xin combed your hair, and there will be no chance in the future. Master, Qin Xin combed your hair well today."

Xu Yan turned his neck to look at the image reflected in the mirror, and said sincerely, "Very good, Qin Xin, thank you."

"What are you talking about, young master? From now on, when I talk about it with others, I can still boast that I used to be a maid beside the Empress. When other maids see me, they must envy me." Qin Xin smiled, but her eyes were a little red She has been serving the young master since she was 10 years old, and now she is 20 years old. She has watched the young master grow up from a little baby who is still walking unsteadily to the age when she can marry. She is going to get married today, she should be happy, but she feels a little bit reluctant in her heart.

"Qin Xin, I have already told my mother to accept you as a foster daughter. After I return home, I will formally hold a ceremony to let everyone know your future identity, and then I will find you a good wife. If you have If you like it, tell Aniang that the Su family will not let people bully you." Xu Yan also likes this girl very much, and regards her as his own family, so if he can give her a hand, he will naturally.

"Master..." Qin Xin opened her eyes wide, full of surprise.

"Okay, don't cry either, today is my big day, so don't cry."

As soon as Xu Yan's words fell, the gatekeeper said that the team outside the palace to welcome the bride was about to arrive, and asked Xu Yan to go out. Hearing this, Xu Yan stood up, and Qin Xin hurriedly stepped forward to smooth some wrinkles on his clothes, and then opened the room. Door.

When Xu Yan left the room, he was taken to the main hall by the courtesy officer. After serving tea to Su Xing and Li Xiuyun, Li Xiuyun wiped away his tears and chattered with him, while Su Xing's eyes were also red.

"Mother, Father, take care of yourself, Yu Xi will be fine in the palace, don't worry." After speaking, he knelt down and kowtowed three times. Xu Yan kowtowed sincerely, although he and the Su family couple The days of getting along were only a few months, but he could feel their intentions.

After kowtowing, Xu Yan was embraced by several ceremony officials and walked towards the gate. The man of Dazhou does not need to wear a red hijab like a girl when he gets married, and he needs to be carried by his brothers to go out. According to the regulations on the number of court officials, there are 2 ordinary people, the same as merchants, and the official status varies according to the position of the official. There are 12 people for royal relatives and relatives, but in a situation like Xu Yan, there are 16 people. individual.

When Xu Yan came out of the gate, he saw the emperor in red standing at the front, smiling nicely at him.

"I'm here." Zhou Subei stretched out his hand towards him.

"Yeah." Xu Yan responded in a low voice, and put his fair and slender hand into a big warm hand that was one size bigger than his own with sharp knuckles and slightly sweaty palm.

"Please Your Majesty, Empress Empress, come and drive me away." The ceremony officials shouted in unison.

Zhou Subei pulled Xu Yan and slowly stepped onto the imperial drive pulled by sixteen fine horses.

The welcoming team hugged Yu Huan, followed by a team carrying 120 or [-] dowries, and headed for the palace mightily. Xu Yan and Zhou Subei were sitting in Yu Huan, Xu Yan relaxed and leaned against him In his arms: "Why did you come by yourself? Didn't it mean that the emperor can't greet his relatives in person?"

"You are mine. How can I not come in person at such an important moment, Yu Xi, I love you." Zhou Subei hugged him and said affectionately in his ear.

Ten miles of red makeup is not enough to describe the luxury of this wedding. The emperor seems to want to give him the best everything in the world, and use the red of the entire imperial city to announce to the world that this person is the treasure on the tip of his heart. It will be his queen, the only one in his life.

After the ceremony, Xu Yan was sent to the palace where the queen lived, but Xu Yan lived in something different, the normal queen's bedroom was in Yong'an Palace, but Xu Yan's bedroom was next to Zhou Subei's own bedroom , The plaque on it also seems to be newly replaced, with the words 'Chengjing Palace' written on it.

Xu Yan looked at these three words and felt a little helpless. This possessiveness was really getting stronger and stronger, and even the name of the palace was playing tricks.

...................................

The emperor's wedding rested for three days, but Zhou Subei was used to domineering, and changed the day to seven days with a wave of his hand. In the first two, the two of them have never left the 'Chengjing Palace'. Even the days to leave the bed were limited, until the morning of the third day, Xiaoluotou yelled outside the door: "Third brother, third brother, it's time for you to bring the beauty back home."

The two of them remembered that there was still the matter of going back to the door, so they parted reluctantly.

Xu Yan was a little sleepy while riding in the palace, leaning against Zhou Subei's arms to catch up on sleep, Zhou Subei carefully hugged him in his arms, patted him lightly, and coaxed him.

The little luobotou looked at the two of them, the chubby lotus root-like hands supported their faces, looked at the two of them, and said softly: "Third brother, the beauty seems to be very tired, but haven't you guys slept for two days?"

Fortunately, Xu Yan had already fallen asleep and didn't hear this sentence, otherwise he would have to spit out a mouthful of water.

Zhou Subei just smiled and didn't speak, he did 'sleep' for two days, but it was not a normal sleep.
