The Queen's Beggar's Wife
Chapter 13 The Seductive Bet
Although Yu Wenhua is only 25 years old, he has been on the throne for more than ten years.He is assertive, resourceful, and imposing. He is not an emperor who is easily swayed by civil and military officials.When he mentioned the matter of marrying Chu Yueyin in the court hall, he just wanted to inform all the officials.
At that moment, he ordered the chief attendant Jiang Qi to draft the decree in public, and immediately stamped the jade seal after the imperial inspection, and asked Jiang Qi to go to the Chu family in the east city to issue the decree in person.As soon as the jade seal was sealed, the three-year empress dispute came to an end and the dust settled.Even though Xia Zhizhang and Dou Tao are high-ranking and powerful, although they are unwilling, they dare not say a word in front of the emperor.
After retiring from the court, Yu Wenhua asked the attendants around him to stop the officials and went to the imperial study alone.The matter of becoming a successor has been decided, he doesn't want to spend more time talking, and he doesn't want to see Xia Zhizhang or Dou Tao.
As soon as Zhang Xin, the attendant of the imperial study, saw the bright yellow robe flashing by the window, he quickly went forward with a letter in his hand.
"Your majesty, are you down? An urgent letter was sent from Ning Xi's crown prince, and the person who delivered the letter specially ordered that it be handed over to the emperor in time."
"Oh." Yu Wenhua raised his eyebrows, casually took the letter handed over by Zhang Xin, opened it, and couldn't help laughing out loud.
It turned out that the letter said that Ningxi Crown Prince Huangfu Bo had bet on the three border cities with Yu Wenhua on the sexuality of the Second Prince Huangfuyan.If Yu Wenhua can prove that Huangfuyan's sexuality is normal, then three cities on the border of Ningxi Kingdom will be given to Yu Wenhua.If it is proved that Huangfuyan really only loves male sex, he will offer 10 taels of gold as a reward.
Unexpectedly, Huangfu Bo was so afraid of Huangfuyan, and it was not enough to send Huangfuyan to the Tibetan Yuan Kingdom as a hostage, but he had to come up with such a tempting bet to lure him.If it is confirmed that Huangfuyan's "broken sleeve" is just an appearance, what will Huangfubo do?Did you kill Huangfuyan?
Yu Wenhua sat on the dragon chair behind the desk, meditating.To make an appointment or not to make an appointment?Taking three cities as a bet, Huangfu Bo was certain that he would not reject the bet.After a long time, he chuckled and made up his mind.There is really no reason to refuse such an attractive bet.
Speaking of the Chu family in Dongcheng, there was a deafening knock on the door just after the hour.
The two servants opened the gate one from the left and the other from the right, and were surprised to see twenty red-clothed palace guards standing upright in two lines in the open space in front of the mansion, with a thirty-something standing in front of them. The man next year was wearing a black transparent gauze cap, a gray embroidered brocade robe, and second-rank official boots, holding a bright yellow imperial edict in his hands.
Seeing that the gate of the Chu Mansion was opened, Jiang Qi said loudly, "Chu Yueyin accepts the order!" The two servants looked at each other, one rushed out to greet him, and the other turned around and returned to the mansion to pass the message.
Jiang Qi followed the servants into the Chu Mansion and sat down in the hall.The guards also followed in. Except for two guards with higher rank guarding Jiang Qi's side, the other 18 people were neatly divided into two teams and stood outside the hall.These guards are not only dazzlingly dressed, but also all of them are in high spirits, which is very eye-catching.
Tong Chuan's servant first went to Wenhuaxuan to report to Chu Huan who had just returned from outside the city, and according to Chu Huan's instructions, hurried to Yuehua Pavilion, and in the courtyard, the official in the palace came to deliver the imperial edict. The matter was told to Yinqiao.
In Yuehua Pavilion, Chu Yueyin just got up, put on homely clothes, and was holding a red sandalwood comb in her hand, combing her soft and lustrous black hair.After coming to Cangyuan Kingdom, she deliberately grew her hair, but in just a few months, it only grew by ten centimeters.Fortunately, she originally had long straight hair, but now the tail of her hair reached her waist. Looking from behind, it looked like a waterfall pouring down.
Seeing Yinqiao coming back from the outside in a panic, she said, "Yinqiao, what happened? Why are you in such a panic?"
"Miss Yueyin, someone has come from the palace with an imperial decree. They are waiting in the hall to issue the decree to you, miss."
The rosewood comb slipped from Xianxian's hand and fell on the floor with a low plop, then lay quietly on the floor, waiting for the owner to pick it up.
Unexpectedly, Yu Wenhua is really serious!Chu Yueyin slumped on the dressing table, sobbing in frustration.She is just an ordinary person, what can she use to compete with a high-ranking emperor?Do you really want to succumb to the imperial power and spend your whole life with a man you don't love?
"Miss Yueyin, the servants in the palace are still waiting." Yinqiao whispered beside her, "This servant will pick out a dress first, and then wait for the young lady to change her clothes and comb her hair."
Yin Qiao looked at Chu Yueyin's twitching shoulders from crying, sighed, turned around and went to the closet to pick out clothes.
Yin Qiao's sigh hit Chu Yueyin's heart directly, and her heart twitched in pain instantly.Could it be that she traveled here just to enter the palace as a concubine and spend a miserable life in the deep palace?She is not reconciled, nor is she willing to compromise with the imperial power.But what can she do?
"Miss Yueyin, is this dress okay? If Miss thinks it's too plain, I can change it." Yinqiao's voice rang in her ears again.
Chu Yueyin raised her head, took the silk handkerchief on the dressing table, gently wiped away the tears on her face, and then looked at the dress in Yinqiao's hand.The silver-white top and light red long skirt are not gorgeous, but they can just bring out her beauty.
"It's just this one, there's no need to change it." Chu Yueyin stood up, went behind the screen and changed into the dress picked by Yinqiao, then returned to the dressing table and sat down, letting Yinqiao comb a simple dress for her. Hair bun, a red jadeite hairpin is inserted obliquely, and red jadeite earrings are worn.
After a while, Chu Yueyin took a deep breath, and Tingting walked gracefully into the hall of the front yard.In the hall, Chu Huan and Mrs. Chu had already knelt on the ground facing the imperial decree, waiting for her arrival.
Jiang Qi observed people in a subtle way, and immediately understood with just one glance that this elegant and refined woman was today's protagonist——Chu Yueyin, the daughter-in-law of the Chu family, the empress personally selected by the emperor.
He cleared his throat and said loudly, "Chu Yueyin accepts the order!"
Chu Yueyin lifted her skirt slightly, and knelt down, "Chu Yueyin, the daughter of the people, accepts the decree, long live my emperor!"
"Fortunately, the emperor ordered that the daughter of the Chu family, Chu Yueyin, be virtuous and graceful, worthy of the mother's honor in the world, which pleases the Sacred Heart very much. She is specially hired as a queen, and she will be married into the palace in ten days. This is my honor!"
The mother of the world?Queen?The joke was too big.Chu Yueyin's mind was roaring and she couldn't think anymore.She knelt on the ground blankly, without saying a word.
Jiang Qi thought she was too happy, so he didn't rush her.After all, which woman can calm down after receiving the emperor's imperial edict to accept the concubine, not to mention that this imperial edict is not to accept the concubine but to confer the empress.After receiving the imperial decree, she is the master of the harem with one person under one person and above ten thousand people.
After a while, Chu Yueyin raised her head, and said slowly: "Officer, did you read it wrong? He... Your Majesty, he... can't..."
