After the marriage was bestowed, the banquet continued. At the moment, since the Southern Barbarian Lands and the Qin Kingdom were officially engaged, most people breathed a sigh of relief. So they toasted to the Southern Barbarian Lands' envoys. The hall suddenly became lively. Crown Prince Xieyue also gave a toast to the princes who were sitting with him.
Seeing that he was in poor health, others didn't force him to drink.
"Number One Scholar Qin, since Father wishes to bestow marriage upon you today, is there any young lady that you like? I can ask Father to bestow marriage upon you. What do you think?"
Feng Yuran smiled slightly as he turned around to ask Qin Yufeng who sat below him. His pretty eyes shone brightly. What had happened earlier did not affect him at all, so he was in a good mood.
Qin Yufeng did not expect King Xuan to speak to him. He smiled gently and answered, "Many thanks, King Xuan. I am still young and there
The banquet in the imperial palace did not last long. The marriage between the Southern Barbarian Lands and the Qin Kingdom had been carved in stone. Now there was the last step left: which princess would Crown Prince Xieyue ask to marry? It was different from Princess Caifeng's marriage. Although Princess Caifeng was also the candidate for marriage between the Southern Barbarian Lands and the Qin Kingdom, she would be a member of the Qin Kingdom after she got married. Moreover, she was going to marry King Ning, so there would be little chance for her to become the ruler of the country.Crown Prince Xieyue's case was different. He was likely to be the future Emperor of the Southern Barbarian Lands, and thus the princess, who would marry him, would be the future Empress of the Southern Barbarian Lands and had the right to decide the national affairs of the Southern Barbarian Lands and the Qin Kingdom in the future. Therefore, the Qin Kingdom attached more importance to t
In the end, Mo Xuetong left first, not waiting for Feng Yuran.She returned to King Xuan's Manor with Princess Caifeng and Hu Qianyue. After getting out of the carriage, she said goodbye to Princess Caifeng and went to the main courtyard. Just now, the Emperor had given orders to the people from the Southern Barbarian Lands to move to their new manor. Princess Caifeng and Hu Qianyue also needed to pack their own things.After all, something like that had happened in the palace, Princess Caifeng did not fulfill her wish to marry Feng Yuran. At the sight of Mo Xuetong, she wore an unhappy look, but could not do anything to Mo Xuetong. When she thought of Mo Xuetong's husband who was so protective of her that he had become so fierce, Princess Caifeng did not dare to think about hurting her no matter how daring she was.The more she saw Mo Xuetong, the more annoyed she became. So she just left, which was the best way for her.Thus, she
"Mo Ye, what did you find over there?"Mo Ye lowered her voice and answered, "When I went to the Sixth Princess' palace, I didn't go in directly from the front door. It seemed that the palace was heavily guarded. Any person who entered the Sixth Princess' palace has to be inquired clearly. I saw that a palace maid of Imperial Noble Consort Wen was coming from her mistress' palace, and entered the Sixth Princess', accompanied by palace maids."After she wore the palace maid's clothes, she realized that she could not enter that place at all. She did not expect that the Sixth Princess, who was gentle and even weak in usual days, would guard her palace so tightly. It was really suspicious. Finding that she could not get in from the front door, she turned to the back hall, where was outside the back door.As the front door was tightly guarded, she became more vigilant when she was about to go through the back door. She deliberately stopped on a tree
Feng Yuran came back with Crown Prince Xieyue. Noticing was too late, Feng Yuran asked someone to send a message to Mo Xuetong, saying that Crown Prince Xieyue and his people would not move today and would move when the helper came tomorrow. He also asked Mo Xuetong to have dinner first as he would be with Crown Prince Xieyue outside.Mo Xuetong told the little eunuch who sent the message to serve Feng Yuran well. She ate inside. Noticing that it was late, she asked the maidservants to leave and started to make clothes under the lamp. It was Feng Yuran's underwear. Since she married Feng Yuran, she had never asked anyone else to make these clothes.Even though the two of them hadn't had sex yet, they inevitably had such a desire. Fortunately, Feng Yuran would stop at the important moment, which made Mo Xuetong feel guilty, especially when she saw the strong desire in his beautiful eyes but he had to hold it. She felt that she had been a little sorry for him
Now that Imperial Noble Consort Wen could not bribe the entire Imperial Institute of Medicine, it meant that she was really pregnant and lost a son. If it was true, Mo Xuetong could not understand that as a mother, how Imperial Noble Consort Wen could be so calm after losing her own child and even recover quickly. It was too unbelievable."There's one more thing that you didn't expect. Imperial Noble Consort Wen is very kind to Third brother." Feng Yuran suddenly smiled mysteriously.Imperial Noble Consort Wen was very kind to Feng Yulei?"How did you know?" Something flashed through Mo Xuetong's mind, but she failed to grasp it. Then she asked subconsciously."At that time, my mother was still alive, and I was only about five or six years old. My mother was favored by Father, and Father loved me very much. I was lawless and, stirred up stuff with others. I especially liked to hide in some deserted places, playing hide and seek wit
Hu Qianyue fell ill, even seriously ill. She lay unconscious on the bed and her face was almost as pale as a dead man. If her chest had not heaved slightly, Mo Xuetong would have thought that she was dead. Feng Yuran did not allow her to come, afraid that Hu Qianyue's fever would infect her.However, Mo Xuetong insisted on coming. Hu Qianyue had not yet left King Xuan's Manor, so she, the hostess, had to care about her. She must not let anyone think that she, Consort Xuan, treated the envoys of the Southern Barbarian Lands too badly. She had never come to see her on the pretext of illness before, but now, since she could get up, she had to come to visit her.Originally, Hu Qianyue would leave King Xuan's Manor today, and then would be married into King Yan's Manor on a nice day in a few days. As she would not be the legal wife of King Yan, a few tables for the wedding banquet would suffice. After that, Princess Caifeng's wedding ceremony would be the main e
Having known about Hu Qianyue's secret, Crown Prince Xieyue felt assured. "My Lady, I remember when we first met, you told me that you were the third miss of the Mo family. I didn't expect that you would marry King Xuan at such a young age. You are already Consort Xuan now!" he said to Mo Xuetong in a soft voice.Ever since they met, there was always such a slightly cold beauty in his dreams. So when he learned that she died in Consort Yan's plot, he was so furious that he almost couldn't control himself who had always been clam.Later, he used Princess Caifeng as a tool to plot against King Yan. Besides, marrying Hu Qianyue into King Yan's Manor was also part of his scheme. Now that King Yan's Manor wanted to make peace with the Southern Barbarian Lands by a marriage, he would make King Yan marry a woman who was said to be the Third Prince's wife. If Feng Yulei really married Hu Qianyue, what he would get was the anger of the Southern Barbarian Lands.
In King Xuan's Manor, Hu Qianyue was so ill that she could not get up; so was You Yue'e in King Yan's Manor, and she almost lost the baby in her belly.She had a fever when she returned to King Yan's Manor that night. According to the imperial physician, she was depressed inwardly and seemed to be in a bad mood recently. That was why You Yue'e had almost lost her baby. So she could only lie on the bed today and did not dare to move. She was determined to prevent miscarriage.Upon hearing the news, the Empress was so anxious that she immediately sent a nanny from the palace to visit You Yue'e. She also asked a few people to serve and protect the pregnant woman by her side.If You Yue'e gave birth to a son this time, King Yan taken more than one step ahead of the other princes, so he would also have a great advantage. Since the other princes, including King Chu, King Ning and King Xuan, hadn't had a son—the Emperor's little grandson, the Emperor
