The regent is a yandere who needs to be pampered

Chapter 143 The Emperor's Uncle is Mighty

The joyous noise in the palace suddenly quieted down.

Nan Xi raised her eyes quietly, her face as beautiful as autumn water reflected the phoenix crown and bridal robe, she was extremely beautiful, calm and gentle, her red lips curled up with a faint smile, like a graceful green orchid, graceful and elegant, but also charming.

"Your Highness, long live long live long live long live!"

"Your Highness, long live long live long live long live!"

Everyone bowed down to salute.

"You all stand up." The handsome and elegant emperor spoke in a gentle tone, his eyes fell on the pair of people in the palace, his eyes met Nan Xi's beautiful face, his breath was slightly choked, and then he smiled calmly, "The Queen and I are here to join in the fun, drink a glass of wedding wine, and congratulate the young emperor on his happy wedding and the harmonious couple."

His expression was calm and smiling, as if the unpleasantness a few days ago had never happened.

As expected, the emperor is the best at disguise, and the saying that the emperor's heart is unpredictable has never been wrong. Even if he has a murderous intention in his heart, he can still send blessings with a smile on his face.

Being in the royal family, he has been exposed to power struggles since childhood and has long been accustomed to the treacherous palace, so being two-faced has long been a habit.

Nan Xi lowered her eyes and couldn't help but hold Rong Yu's hand again.

His status and military power were won by his ability. As the youngest brother of the previous emperor and the youngest son of Emperor Jingming, if he was not strong, who could sincerely protect him? I'm afraid he would have been torn to pieces in this palace that eats people without spitting bones.

But isn't the queen still under house arrest? She came today. Sure enough, she took advantage of this happy day to calculate that Rong Yu would not make fun of her, so she wanted to take the opportunity to lift the punishment of house arrest.

"Thank you for your blessing, Your Majesty." Rong Yu said in a light tone. Because of the great joy today, his mood was good, and his voice was less indifferent than usual, and it sounded a little warmer. "Come on, please ask the emperor to take a seat."

Rong Chuyun smiled lightly: "No hurry, I haven't toasted my uncle yet."

As soon as the voice fell, a servant next to him respectfully presented a wine cup. Rong Chuyun raised his hand and took a cup of fine wine, "This cup of wine is for my uncle."

Rong Yu took it and drank it all.

Rong Chuyun poured another cup: "This cup of wine is for my aunt."

The emperor toasted in public - even if she was the regent princess, she must accept the wine with trepidation and gratitude.

However, Nan Xi just smiled calmly, said "Thank you, Your Majesty", and was about to reach out to take the wine cup.

But suddenly a hand stretched out from the side and took the wine cup before her: "Xi'er is not good at drinking, this cup should be drunk by me."

After that, he drank it all again.

There was a commotion in the hall: "The Imperial Uncle is mighty."

"The Imperial Uncle really loves the Imperial Aunt to the core of his heart."

Even if Rong Chuyun was unhappy, he would not show it in front of so many people. Besides, he came here to send blessings today. If he put on an imperial air here, it would be narrow-minded.

But he still had doubts in his heart, so he couldn't help but speak, with a deep tone: "The Imperial Aunt is the daughter of Jiuxiao Pavilion? How come I have never heard of it?"

When this was said, all the clan members present were shocked.

The daughter of Jiuxiao Pavilion?

Nan Xi smiled calmly, with a frank look: "After my mother divorced my father, I was taken to Jiuxiao Pavilion by the people sent by my mother."

"So Madam Nan is the master of Jiuxiao Pavilion?"

The mother-in-law of the master of Jiuxiao Pavilion can barely be regarded as a master. Nan Xi nodded with a clear conscience, without any guilty conscience on her face: "Yes."

Rong Chuyun clenched his hands suddenly.

Madam Nan is actually the master of Jiuxiao Pavilion? No wonder she had the courage to make the decision to divorce her husband, but all these years...

"Why haven't you ever heard anyone mention it in all these years?"

If he had known that she was the master of Jiuxiao Pavilion, he would never have watched her divorce Nan Xiang.

Nan Xi said calmly: "My mother is low-key. She just wanted to live a good life with my father. She didn't expect my father to be so unreliable. She was heartbroken. She sent someone to tell me her identity after divorcing her husband."

Rong Chuyun thought about Jiuxiao Pavilion in his heart and couldn't help regretting it. He wanted to ask something else, but heard Rong Yu say: "Does the emperor have a lot of questions to ask?"

The emperor's expression paused, and he changed the topic swiftly: "It's a rare happy day. How about all the royal brothers toast to the emperor uncle?"

It's not uncommon to make a scene in the wedding hall on the day of the wedding. Even if the royal rules are strict, it's hard not to want to make it lively. Originally, due to the regent's heavy dignity, the young royal children among the clan members, even if they are of the same age as him, dare not be too presumptuous because of their seniority.

However, the emperor's opening words at this time undoubtedly emboldened the other people who were eager to try. Starting from the King of Qi and the King of Lu, all the princes, dukes and princes raised their glasses from the table.

Rong Yu's eyebrows were indifferent, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

Nan Xi shook his hand and silently comforted him.

"It's better for us brothers to drink a few cups first. It's rare for the little uncle to get married today. We must not miss the auspicious time for the newlyweds." A young man in the hall stood up, holding a wine cup, attracting everyone's attention, "It's not too late to toast the uncle later when you have time, what do you think, third brother?"

The atmosphere was slightly tense.

Although the young men present usually laughed and pretended to be stupid, they knew in their hearts that the emperor and the regent were not on good terms.

So whether they really wanted to join in the fun or had other purposes, helping the regent at this critical juncture was almost equivalent to going against the emperor.

The man who spoke was the current King Yun, the seventh prince in the royal family, Rong Chuxiu. He had just reached the age of twenty this year and had always been low-key and indifferent, not vying for fame and fortune, and his presence was not very strong.

He had not participated in the previous battle for the throne among the princes and had never been involved, so the power he had accumulated was not as great as that of the others, and he was not as popular as them. However, after the current emperor ascended the throne, he was not suppressed as much.

So this sentence came from the mouth of Prince Yun, and it generally played the role of livening up the atmosphere. It was not about helping anyone, nor was it about opposing anyone.

His Majesty glanced at him with a somewhat cold look in his eyes, but he did not say anything else in the end, and said lightly: "In this case, I will not delay the auspicious time of the emperor's uncle and aunt."

The ceremonial officer of the Ministry of Rites was already trembling with fear standing aside, fearing that the emperor and the regent would quarrel on the day of great joy. Fortunately, the emperor seemed to have really come to bless today, and he did not say anything more after being smoothed over by Prince Yun.

The ceremonial officer hurriedly sang loudly: "Enter the bridal chamber!"

The veil fell lightly, covering the bride's beautiful face. Just now, outside the palace gate, Rong Yu wanted to let people see Nan Xi, and let everyone know who he married today, who was the mistress of the Regent Palace, and who was the daughter of Jiuxiao Pavilion, so he only covered half of his veil, and only put it down completely at this time.

Rong Yu held Nan Xi's hand and walked with her to the bridal chamber.
