Chapter 752: A Useless Scholar for the Eldest Princess' Wedding(1/3)
Chapter 752: The Eldest Princess’s Wedding, the Useless Scholar
On the sixth day of the first lunar month, there was snow.
Before dawn, Prince Duan Nangong Ke led the wedding team out of the palace and headed towards the Lingxiao Sect.
They were beating gongs and drums, playing music and scattering flowers all the way. It was so lively.
People in the inner and outer cities of Kyoto got up early today and rushed to the streets, preparing to watch the eldest princess's groom.
Even some shops have decided to close their doors today.
Guests from all over the world have already gathered outside the palace.
At this time, in the Yaohua Palace.
The eldest princess, Nangong Huoyue, had just come out of the training room and was bathing in incense under Yuewu's service.
In a hot spring pool, the mist is thick, and the beautiful snow-white jade body is looming among the pink petals.
On the soft couch by the pool, there are neatly stacked red wedding robes, phoenix crowns, robes, etc.
Yuewu was squatting by the pool, carefully scrubbing her jet-black hair. When she raised her eyes, she could see the towering jade peaks half hidden and half exposed among the pink petals.
She glanced secretly and couldn't help but said softly: "Mr. Chu is so lucky to be able to marry you, Your Highness... He must have been so excited these days that he didn't sleep well for several nights."
Nangong Huoyue leaned on the edge of the pool, closed her eyes, and said calmly: "He refused before."
Yue Wu guessed: "Maybe his family is afraid that after Mr. Chu becomes the consort, he will not want them anymore."
Nangong Huoyue was silent for a while and said, "Have you found out his family members?"
Yuewu lowered his head and said: "No. I only know that he suddenly appeared in Mocheng. After the fall of Mocheng, he appeared in Kyoto again. Then under the introduction of Daoling, he joined the Lingxiao Sect. The Jinyiwei also tracked them down for a long time, and they all
no idea."
After a pause, he glanced at her again and whispered: "Your Highness, you should know something about him, right?"
Nangong Huoyue frowned slightly, and couldn't help but think of those shameful things again.
Yuewu glanced at her cold face and didn't dare to ask any more questions.
It was quiet for a while again.
Nangong Huoyue asked: "Has the wedding room been decorated?"
Yue Wu said respectfully: "It was already arranged yesterday. Would you like to go and see it later, Your Highness?"
Nangong Huoyue said lazily: "No need."
Yue Wu glanced at her again, hesitated, and whispered: "Your Highness, do you... need someone to replace you in the bridal chamber tonight? If necessary, we need to arrange it in advance. The Queen Mother should send someone to guard outside.
of."
Nangong Huoyue was silent for a moment, looking at the pink petals swaying gently on the water, and said calmly: "No need. Since I personally chose him, I will naturally not regret it."
Yuewu lowered his head and said: "Yes."
Not long after, Yueying's cold voice came from outside: "Your Highness, news just came from the gate of the outer city that Mr. Luo has entered the city."
As soon as these words came out, Yue Wu's hand that was washing her hair suddenly trembled slightly.
Nangong Huoyue suddenly frowned and asked, "Is he alone?"
Yueying said respectfully: "There is also the woman named Xia Chan."
The bathroom was quiet for a while, and then Nangong Huoyue's complicated voice came: "What a nerd."
Yue Wu lowered her head and continued to wash her hair, with no clear expression on her face.
Nangong Huoyue was silent for a long time and said, "Is there any chance to stop him and take him away?"
Yueying was quiet outside for a moment and said respectfully: "It may be a little difficult. He has been targeted since he entered the city. There are people from the Jinyi Guards, people from the Yamen, a few souls, and there are also people in the palace."
Nangong Huoyue narrowed her eyes, pondered for a moment, and sighed: "Forget it, let him come. Since he has decided to come, he has his reasons, so why should I meddle in others' affairs. For some
For people, reputation, righteousness, integrity, etc. are all more important than one's own life."
After a moment of silence, she added: "Today is my grand day. No matter what, I will not let him die in the palace. Yueying, go prepare and keep an eye on him."
Yueying respectfully said: "Yes."
Nangong Huoyue was quiet for a while, turned her head and looked at the girl behind her, and said, "Do you like him?"
Yue Wu lowered his head and said, "No, just... admiration."
Nangong Huoyue stared at her for a few more times and said: "He is not suitable for you. He is indeed talented and capable, but after all, he is just a scholar. And... he has a wife in his family, among whom..."
At this point, she suddenly stopped and frowned.
I thought about it again.
She took out the summons and sent a message to someone: [Senior sister, your husband has entered the city and is planning to come to the palace to die. You should know, right? 】
After the message was sent, she held the summons in her hand, with a complex emotion on her face. She secretly thought in her heart: That woman...does it really have no feelings for her? However, she has feelings for another person, or another person.
A soul, but so thoughtful... In other words, she just has no feelings for his husband and is just using him...
After a while, the message came back: [I know]
Nangong Huoyue looked at these two words, was startled, and then replied: "Are you too cold-blooded? Even though you had no choice but to let him get married, you were just using him, but he is devoted to your Qin family.
Try your best, and he is sincere to your sister. Why don't you stop him?】
I thought that the other party would not reply again, but soon, the message came back: [You protect him]
"..."
When Nangong Huoyue saw this news, she thought she had read it wrong. She frowned again and read it carefully several times. She couldn't help but feel funny. Is this girl stupid because of her cultivation? She suddenly became so thick-skinned?
She immediately replied: [Sorry, there is nothing I can do. Today is my wedding day, and it is impossible for me to fall out with the emperor because of him. He did give me a lot, but I gave him even more]
After a pause, she replied: [Sister, are you stupid because of your cultivation? Or, today I am getting married to someone, and you are in a bad mood and your brain is broken? You should already know who my consort is.
Already?]
The other party did not reply again.
Nangong Huoyue frowned, and after waiting for a while, Fang put away the summons, his face changed for a while, and he murmured: "That girl...won't she come too? Is it for her husband, or for...
…Her crush?”
Then she shook her head and said: "No, she doesn't dare to come, let alone do anything here..."
"It seems that she has really cultivated to a state of ruthlessness and righteousness..."
"I don't care about my husband's life or death, and I don't care about my love. He becomes the husband of another woman. It's pitiful and deplorable..."
At this time, Yueying's voice came from outside the door: "Your Highness, the Queen Mother is here and said that she would personally help you comb your hair and put on your rosy clothes."
Nangong Huoyue came back to her senses, and the expression on her face became cold and majestic again.
at the same time.
Yongyan Palace, in the underground secret room.
Emperor Nangong Yang was sitting alone in the corner practicing with his eyes closed.
At this time, Li Gui's voice came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, the Qin family's son-in-law has entered the city, taking the maid named Xia Chan with him. At this time, he is probably approaching the inner city."
Nangong Yang's face was illuminated by flames, flickering on and off. After practicing for a while, Fang slowly exhaled a breath of white air, opened his eyes, and said with a bright light in his eyes: "Watch him, don't let anyone intercept him. If he
Enter the palace and let him go all the way. If he goes to other places, he will be killed without mercy."
Then he snorted coldly: "On Sister Huang's wedding day, I haven't prepared a program yet. I didn't expect that he would really have the courage to come. Sure enough, scholars are the most useless things. They can be deceived by just a few words."
coming."
Li Gui said respectfully: "Your Majesty, that maid, I heard her swordsmanship is good..."
Nangong Yang sneered and said: "Just let her come in with me. I just want to try the new technique. Isn't it good? That bitch named Hua Gu died in front of that boy. Today
, another woman died in front of him..."
Having said this, there was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, and he said: "On the day of the Taikang feast, he stole the show. Today, I will naturally let him steal the show."
Li Gui reported again: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother went to the eldest princess early in the morning. Also, there was no change in the guards in the palace. There was no change in the troops of the Fire Moon Kingdom and the border. The troops of the Baihua Kingdom
The border is as peaceful as before..."
After hearing this, Nangong Yang was silent for a moment and said coldly: "Are you giving up now? This is not like her character. Continue to let them monitor her. After she gets married, I will start to take away these things from her.
.Even if she had other ideas, she wouldn’t have any chance again.”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Li Gui agreed and waited outside for a while. Just as he was about to leave, Nangong Yang suddenly said: "Bring a palace maid down and let her put on a wedding robe and sew on a mask."
Li Gui froze at the door.
Nangong Yang's face, illuminated by the flames, revealed a strange and sinister smile: "I also want to get married today."
Li Gui said respectfully: "Yes."
After saying that, he hurriedly retreated.
