princess regent lifted from her grave

Ziming Lakeside

King Xiu, Yun Xiwan and his entourage took a carriage to the royal ship's royal venue, which contained pavilions and pavilions built by the royal family along the lake.

A guard who was leaning against the heavy door, slightly drowsy under the warm sunshine, did not even open his eyes when he heard the sound of a carriage approaching. He directly waved his hand and scolded,

"You cannot stay here. If you want to take a boat trip to the lake, go to the other side of the lake and take an official boat. Leave the royal place quickly."

The weather has been fine recently, and many gentlemen and young ladies came to visit the lake. When they saw the dragon boat from a distance, they just wanted to come here to take a closer look. How could they just watch the boat specially built by the emperor for the queen? I don’t know how many carriages were driven away throughout the day.

At this moment, Qing Feng’s angry scolding came,

"Open your dog eyes and see, you can drive away Prince Xiu too!"

The sloppy guard was so shocked by the scolding that he almost fell to the ground. When he saw Qing Feng, his pupils were shocked and he looked terrified. He quickly knelt down and begged for mercy.

"The little one has eyes but doesn't recognize Mount Tai. I didn't know that Prince Xiu came here and was willing to be punished. I thought it was one of those people watching the excitement of the carriage again. That's why I said the treacherous words just now. I hope that Guard Qingfeng will forgive me."

Then he kowtowed to the carriage and said, "Prince Xiu, I didn't mean to offend. Please punish me."

The guard who was kowtowing continuously heard King Xiu's voice coming from the carriage.

"Cheer up and be on duty. If there is a next time, I won't be able to protect you."

The guard was very grateful and kowtowed again to express his gratitude. He quickly got up and led the carriage to the courtyard.

Yun Xiwan opened the car curtain and took a look. Unexpectedly, the courtyard built along the lake was extremely beautiful.

Dongfang Xuan saw Miss Xia looking out of the car curiously, coughed slightly, and said to explain,

"The courtyards built along the lake here are some years old. The late emperor came here several times during his lifetime, and princes and princesses often came here to play. However, the royal ships they took were small and unimpressive and had long been abandoned. On the side, the current dragon boat was specially built by the current emperor for the queen and his wife. They have only ridden it a few times. We are lucky enough to be able to ride the dragon boat today, and it is all thanks to the blessing of Prince Xiu."

After Dongfang Xuan finished speaking, he glanced at Yun Xiwan calmly.

King Xiu smiled slightly when he saw this, his tone was modest,

"Young Master Dongfang's words are wrong. Young Master Dongfang and the Emperor are both friends and brothers. In the early years, the Emperor went through those difficult days thanks to Young Master Dongfang's full help. Now the Emperor is a kind and righteous person, and I am grateful to Young Master Dongfang." Yes, I am lucky enough to ride on the dragon boat today. The dragon's kindness is so great. How could it be because of me?"

Yun Xiwan looked at the two people who were humble to each other and said directly,

"Sister Qianling and I have entrusted you two with your blessing, and we have also inherited the kindness of the emperor and the empress."

Dongfang Xuan laughed when he heard this, this girl Yun is quite clever.

King Xiu also had a bit of a smile in his eyes.

Xia Qianling glanced at Young Master Dongfang again. She didn't expect that he had a very good relationship with the emperor, but she could certainly feel his enthusiasm for her all the way. How could she not know the thoughts of Young Master Dongfang.

So, Xia Qianling quietly moved to Wan'er's side, further away from Young Master Dongfang, because she had never thought about getting married. She had already prepared to be alone. Since the Xia Mansion was destroyed, except for Wan'er and her grandfather, , she doesn’t want to have anyone close to her anymore. The feeling of losing a loved one is too painful, and she doesn’t want to try it again.

Dongfang Xuan looked at Miss Xia's movements and sighed secretly. Not only did Miss Xia have a cold temper, she even seemed to have a cold heart. Could it be that his enthusiasm along the way aroused Miss Xia's resentment? So what should he do?

Having never had a close relationship with a girl, he felt frustrated and at a loss. Why not ask Qing Feng or Qing Yun? Maybe they will have a good idea.

King Xiu, who was sitting side by side with Dongfang Xuan, naturally saw Miss Xia's little movements opposite him. It seemed that Miss Xia had no thoughts about Young Master Dongfang.

Then he slowly turned his eyes, and Yun Xiwan's very happy look fell into his eyes as he looked outside, making him feel very good unconsciously.

Yun Xiwan said with joy on her face, "I saw the dragon boat. Look, it's right there!"

Xia Qianling followed her hand and counted. It was indeed a magnificent and magnificent dragon boat. It was golden in color and had patterns of dragons and phoenixes painted on it. The dragons and phoenixes carved on the sides and stern of the boat were extremely exquisite and lifelike, giving people a mysterious and solemn feeling. Feel.

The interior of the cabin was also decorated with silks, gems and other luxurious items, and the details were even more novel in design. Even she liked it. This can be seen as a glimpse of the emperor's infatuation for the empress. Even the design of the dragon boat is To please the empress.

Xia Qianling could imagine that the empress must have been very happy when she boarded the ship.

King Xiu also smiled when he looked at Yun Xiwan's expression at this time. He believed that girls of this age should be like this, still having innocence and joy for new things, but he seemed to have passed this age.

When he has such an expression... forget it, it's okay if you don't want to.

Just as King Xiu was thinking, the carriage stopped.

Under the hasty notification from the guard just now, the boatman and the palace maids, who had received the news in advance, were already waiting for him and came to pay their respects to King Xiu.

At this time, the ordinary boats playing in the lake saw that there seemed to be someone on the royal grounds, and they opened their eyes wide. Some of them had never seen that spectacular dragon boat swimming. Could it be that today was an eye-opener?

Who is about to board the dragon boat? The Emperor and the Queen?

Everyone on the cruise ship looked excitedly in the direction of the dragon boat, but no one dared to approach the dragon boat.

After Xiu Wang and others boarded the dragon boat, he immediately discovered the intention of the Nine Emperor Brothers in designing the boat.

What Dongfang Xuan saw was even more surprising. There were so many rare treasures in the cabin, and the emperor was not afraid of being noticed by thieves.

Although the emperor didn't care, Dongfang Xuan thought he would definitely feel distressed if these objects were lost.

As for the Queen, she doesn't seem to care. She is undoubtedly the richest in the world. Even the Emperor is not as rich as the Queen. All the property in the Emperor's name is in the Queen's name.

Yun Xiwan and Xia Qianling were shocked by the scene in the cabin. Yun Xiwan admired in her heart that the emperor treated his empress very well.

After a few people sat down, the dragon boat rowed slowly, causing ripples on the water. The smoke rising from the lake was like being trapped in a fairyland, which was very uncomfortable.

On an official ship not far away, five young ladies who were very close to each other were chatting and laughing about some topics about their little daughter.

Someone shouted excitedly,

"Look, the dragon boat is rowing slowly."

The other ladies looked up one after another, and they were all surprised. The dragon boat was indeed moving. Could it be that the emperor and the empress were also on the boat today?

Thinking about it, it's impossible. The Queen is pregnant and the weather is freezing. How could the Emperor be willing to let the Queen go out?

There was only one possibility, and it was most likely King Xiu who boarded the dragon boat.

So, they stared at the dragon boat, hoping to see it clearly and clearly.

It's not that they have no ideas about the current emperor, but they have been warned repeatedly by their grandfather or father that they have stopped thinking about entering the palace as concubines. The emperor will not expand the harem.
