The reborn prince is hard to raise

"What are you doing here?" A cold voice came from behind the white curtain, like the ice and snow on the top of a snow mountain that has not melted for a thousand years, it can be cold to the bone marrow.It was very dark here, only a candle was lit in front of the curtain, which was placed on a slender wooden lamp holder half a person's height. The weak candle light was quietly shining, reflecting the figure of the man sitting in front of the curtain. On the wall, the outline is blurred.

After a long silence, a deep voice said, "I haven't seen you for 43 days." He sat there, his lips moved and he wanted to say something, but he held back, but his tone was slightly aggrieved meaning.

While talking, he looked at the faint white figure behind the curtain, with longing and longing in his eyes, but he was deeply suppressed.

The person behind the curtain was silent for a long time before asking, "What's the matter." His tone was not as cold as before, but warmer.

"Chengning is about to get married." The man loosened his clenched hands instantly, and said eagerly.But after a while, there was still no response.

His eyes were a little downcast, but he forced a smile, "I heard that the child of the Gu family is very good. He is good-natured and proficient in piano painting at the age of eleven. Well, the concubine I found for Cheng Ning is also very good—"

"What exactly do you want to say?" The man inside the curtain interrupted him directly, with an impatient tone.A wind came from nowhere, the candle flame flickered, and the lights and shadows in the room flickered.

"I just—" he wanted to say that I just missed you and wanted to see you, but the dignity of the emperor prevented him from saying this so unabashedly, so he said with a sigh, "I just want to tell You, Cheng Ning, have grown up." After finishing speaking, she was very remorseful, hating her own hesitation.

"Tell me what to do?" The voice from inside the curtain was mocking, "Your Majesty, you should leave here, I don't want to see you." He ignored the other party's sudden hold of breath, stood up and turned inside room.

The white single clothes wrapped his thin figure, and his waist-length black hair hung down, loosely tied with a wooden hairpin.His eyebrows and eyes are extremely delicate, and there is a bright cinnabar mole between his eyebrows, which makes his slender eyebrows a little enchanting, but the cold temperament all over his body dilutes this feeling, as if he is thousands of miles away, making people dare not Feeling blasphemy.

"Jiaye—" Lu Zezhang stood up all of a sudden, took a step forward involuntarily, and shouted anxiously.He wished he could stop and turn around to look at himself.

Is it just a glance, is it already a luxury?

"Don't call me by my name, you don't deserve it." Kasyapa finished his voice with coldness and undisguised disgust. After he finished speaking, the sound of footsteps gradually disappeared into the darkness.

Lu Zezhang stood on the spot, looked at the white curtain that had not opened the slightest gap, raised his head and closed his eyes slowly, and murmured, "Kasyapa..."

I'm not qualified to call your name anymore?Thinking about it, he suddenly laughed, but the corners of his eyes were moist.

It was already dusk when the mighty welcoming team entered the palace wall.

The afterglow of the setting sun fell on the palace wall, suddenly showing a little desolate feeling. This ancient palace has witnessed hundreds of years of prosperity and decline, witnessed the emperor's ascension to the throne, and also witnessed the soldiers approaching the city, and the blood-stained imperial city.Here, dense bones are buried, and it also possesses the highest grace in the world.This is the dreamland of every ambitious person, and also the tomb of countless heroes.

The avenue paved with white marble leads directly to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, where the lights are already brilliant.On both sides of the avenue are white jade railings, on which are hung continuous red silk.The palace guard stood silently holding a spear, and the silver light armor showed a faint red color under the reflection of the setting sun, as if stained with blood.

Gu Mingheng shook Lu Chengning's hand and appeared in everyone's sight. In an instant, the palace guards, the 49th Luan Yiwei and the 81st guards guarding both sides of the car knelt down on one knee, the sounds of armor touching and spears hitting the ground were low. Powerful, the air instantly became awe-inspiring.

No wonder there have been so many people trying to rule the world for thousands of years. Not everyone can resist the temptation of thousands of people prostrate at their feet.Looking up, from the foot to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, there were people kneeling on one knee. Gu Mingheng glanced at Lu Chengning, and saw him standing blankly at the side, staring at the carved railing in a daze.

He doesn't pay attention to what the world values, and he doesn't know whether it is good or bad.

When following the Dian Yijian into the attached hall of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Gu Mingheng saw A Zheng and A Yu waiting in the hall.They had already changed into the light brown clothes of palace servants, and put on the belt badges of the Eastern Palace.

"My lord." After saluting with everyone, the two stepped forward to take off Gu Mingheng's outer robe, and handed it to the little maid who was waiting at the side, and then unfolded a red crown robe painted with phoenixes, mountains and rivers, and clouds. Dress up for Gu Mingheng together with the servants of the two palaces.

The crown dress worn at this time is the wedding dress.

Gu Mingheng raised his arms while paying attention to Lu Chengning's appearance not far away.He is dressed in the auspicious uniform of the Dagon Mian, with the seven-pronged Mian Guan, the black clothes and the clothes, the clothes are painted with five patterns of dragon, mountain, Chinese insect, fire, and Zongyi, and the clothes are embroidered with four patterns of Zao, Fenmi, Fu, and Fu. There are nine chapters in total.

Perhaps it was because the seven-pronged crown was too heavy for him now, which made him a little irritable.The palace attendant who tidied his clothes was careful, because he was afraid that Lu Chengning would get angry and make the emperor condemn him.

After putting on the clothes, the Dian Yijian checked all the details, and then led the palace servants to retreat outside the palace, leaving only twenty palace maids waiting for orders in the palace.For a moment, the crowded hall suddenly became empty, and the sound of friction between the hanging curtains could still be heard, and it was very quiet.

Gu Mingheng got up and sat on Lu Chengning's right side, holding his hand on his knee.At this time, his slightly cool hands seemed to have the power to calm people's hearts, which calmed down Gu Mingheng's slightly racing heartbeat.

Even if he still doesn't understand anything, doesn't understand his mood at this moment, doesn't know what he is about to face, but he still makes himself feel at ease.

Only by feeling his existence can I be more determined, and my life is meaningful.

Half an hour later, the person from the Ceremony Director whispered outside the door, "Master Ceremony Supervisor sent me to respect you, it is half an hour before the auspicious time, please His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Young Master Gu to rest." sound.

Gu Mingheng slowly closed his eyes, there was no way to rest during the period from dusk to midnight, and besides, if Lu Chengning started arguing at the wedding ceremony again like in the previous life, it would be difficult to end.

He smiled wryly in his heart, he was really shouldering a heavy burden, I was in the clear and the enemy in the dark, in such a situation, I could only temporarily be passive.The shadow of the sun gradually slanted, and the shadow of the diamond grid of the wooden window fell on his face, covering the coldness of his lips.

Gu Mingheng closed his eyes and didn't see it. Lu Chengning, who had been staring at the hanging red silk in a daze, slowly turned his gaze to his own hand, looked at Gu Mingheng's hand holding his own, and was stunned for a long time.

When the bells and drums rang for the first time, Gu Mingheng walked out of the side hall holding Lu Chengning's hand, and the Dian Yijian who was waiting at the door handed him the jade Zhang in the lacquered wooden plate, which was the imperial seal. The prince bestowed the token of the princess as an engagement, and the harp and the harp played harmoniously.

The two walked slowly towards the Hall of Supreme Harmony. At this time, the clock and drum had struck 21 times, the number of thirty-seven, to match the relationship between human beings.Golden Crow only has a small half sun wheel in the sky, and the sky is getting cooler.

In front of them is a majestic palace, feasting and feasting, with bright candles hanging high, but behind them is the darkness that is gradually spreading, as if they are facing an abyss, and there is no way out.

When stepping into the main hall, the bell and drum were striking 81 times, the number of ninety-nine, to unite the heaven and the earth.Afterwards, the ceremony and music sounded, and there was no noise in the tranquility of the hall.

The emperor and the queen sat high in the hall, and the officials and relatives sat on both sides. There was a horizontal table in front of each of them, with wine bottles placed on it.Lu Chengning and Gu Mingheng stood in the center of the hall. After the two ceremonial supervisors completed the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the heavens, they respectfully handed over the wine bottles to Lu Chengning and Gu Mingheng. This is the sacrificial wine for the newlyweds, implying a marriage from heaven .

After a long pause, Lu Chengning did not move or respond.Gu Mingheng couldn't pass the prince to take the wine bottle first, so he could only stand quietly and wait quietly.

At this time, the officials in the palace looked at each other, their eyes were either worried or ridiculed, but the two people at the place where their gazes gathered were as calm as before, unmoved by the wind.

On the throne, the empress approached the emperor with some concern, "The prince looks like this, why don't you withdraw this ceremony." Her voice was very low, and her eyes were filled with deep worry.

She is the eldest daughter of the Xu family in Chenjun. She has been married to the current emperor Lu Zezhang since he was the king of Jin. After Lu Zezhang ascended the throne, she was canonized as the empress. She has been the only person in the harem for so many years, and she is the only one who has been favored to this day. .

She is still young, her eyebrows and eyes are bright and beautiful like a girl, and the heavy queen's dress she wears adds a dignified atmosphere above the Phoenix seat.

"No rush, nothing major will happen." Emperor Lu Zezhang said calmly, his eyes swept across the ministers with different expressions, and he tapped the throne lightly with his fingers, showing no worry in his expression.

Looking carefully at the 11-year-old Gu Mingheng, the emperor Lu Zezhang looked relieved. He is a good boy, looking at the prince with gentle eyes, and he didn't feel nervous in the face of such a scene. He is indeed the son of the Gu family in Puyang.

Kasyapa, your choice is indeed right, such a choice is good for the prince.

The hand of the Dianyi Supervisor holding the wine glass was already a little trembling. He kept bowing his body and lowering his head, his neck was stiff, and he didn't know what to do.But if the crown prince doesn't accept the glass of wine, the marriage ceremony will not be recognized by the heavens, which violates the rules of etiquette.

Therefore, he could only maintain this posture until the prince took the glass of wine.

Standing aside, Gu Mingheng lowered his eyes, the ministers in the palace were already whispering, and the empress on the throne seemed to have no intention of intervening.He carefully recalled that when he was in front of the hall, Lu Chengning was still in a good mood, he didn't look irritable at all, and he cooperated well in both steps and movements.But after entering the hall, he found that Lu Chengning hesitated twice in a row.

Is it because the wedding ceremony took too long to make him impatient, or is it because of some other reason?Gu Mingheng withdrew his thoughts, the most important thing now is to let the prince take the glass of wine first.

Thinking of this, Gu Mingheng quickly glanced at Lu Chengning, who was expressionless, then took the wine bottle from the hands of the Dian Yijian with both hands, and knelt down on one knee, with an elegant and rigorous posture.

Carefully and slowly raising the wine glass to the top of his head, Gu Mingheng said loudly, "May I have a great Yong, Haiyan and Heqing, and the country will be safe forever. The country will be long and the world will be peaceful!" His voice was clear and clear, and there was an echo in the hall.

After speaking, he raised his head, and the red sleeves slowly slid down his arms, the corners of the sleeves swayed slightly, and the cloud patterns embroidered on them rippled slightly like water.Most of his face was covered by long sleeves, only a pair of eyes looked at Lu Chengning steadfastly, without worry or flinching, like the warm spring sun, gentle but not scorching.

This was his bet, if Lu Chengning took this glass of wine, then the wedding ceremony could go on and others would know his influence on the prince, so his position would not be so embarrassing.

But if he fails, he will definitely become the laughing stock of Dayong, and even affect the views of the prince and the judgment of the Gu family by various forces.

I choose to believe in you, Lu Chengning.
