Xue Chang looked down upon him as if he had not seen him. Since civilians without officials could not enter the sacred court meeting, he could only kneel down and bow and salute at the sight of Zongzheng Temple Minister: "Little Minor Xue Chang thanked the emperor for his kindness!"

Xue Chang's words were inspired by internal strength. Under his intentional control, the sound was like a gust of spring breeze. It swept away all the noise in the hall, and the sound was extremely clear in everyone's ears, as if a swimming fish had penetrated into his heart, but it made people feel depressed.

Except for a very few people who know how amazing this move Xue Chang showed was, most officials did not know how amazing it was, but this sentence shocked the ministers in the hall, and the hall suddenly became extremely quiet.

Emperor Taixiang said, "I hope you can live a life with the eldest princess Qinse and spend your whole life together! Get up!"

After Xue Chang got up, he followed Zong Zhengqing out of the palace gate.

In addition to the carriage he was riding in, there was also a loaded betrothal gift. Xue Chang brought his disciples to Luoyang to attend the martial arts conference. He never thought that he would get married so soon. In addition, he was busy with martial arts competitions every day and had no time to prepare. Moreover, he himself did not understand the marriage etiquette of this era at all. Fortunately, the imperial concubine Liu Lingying thought of this. When she heard that the emperor was going to point out the marriage at the court meeting, she immediately asked the servants to prepare everything and sent her to the Goddess Palace mansion early this morning.

Now Xue Chang took this car of betrothal gift to the back door of the palace and welcomed it into the royal family. The imperial family is rich in the world, and of course there is no shortage of this betrothal gift, but this is a Han custom that has been passed down for thousands of years to show the importance of marriage and the good wishes of marriage, even the royal family cannot save it.

After receiving the lottery, Xue Chang could not leave. According to the marriage etiquette, he had to see the woman's family, so after waiting outside the palace for more than half an hour, an old eunuch led two eunuchs out in the palace.

When Xue Chang saw that he was still an acquaintance, the eunuch who was with the Grand Princess Liu Lingying, was the eunuch who was with him. The two eunuchs behind him were steady and powerful, with bright eyes and high temples. They obviously had good skills.

Wan Xiang showed the emperor's handwriting to the palace gate guards. After a body search, Xue Chang was allowed to enter the palace. In fact, methods such as body searching and sending eunuchs with martial arts to guardians have no meaning to superb masters like Xue Chang, but they are just routine procedures.

After stepping into the legendary palace, Xue Chang was a little excited, but at Wan Xiang's reminder, he could only move forward without looking around, avoiding being regarded as frivolous and incapable of being seen by the people in the palace because of looking around.

I don’t know how many gardens I walked through, how many pavilions I turned around, and how many palace maids and eunuchs I met on the way. Finally, I came to a solemn palace, and the voices of women came from time to time in the hall.

Xue Chang looked up at the plaque above the hall gate, and wrote three big characters - Cining Palace.

"Empress, Xue Chang is here!" Wan Xiang stood at the door of the hall and bowed.

"Let him come in." Liu Lingying's voice sounded in the hall, and it suddenly became quiet inside.

Under Wan Xiang's instructions, Xue Chang lowered his head, looked down, and walked slowly into the hall. After seeing four palace ladies sitting in the hall, he saluted to the old woman sitting in the center and said, "Xiaomin Xue Chang pays homage to the Empress of the Imperial Concubine!"

"You are late, so we're here for a long time. Let's settle down quickly." Liu Lingying's speech revealed a sense of intimacy, which made the other three women feel different immediately.

Xue Chang straightened her body, raised her head, and looked at Liu Lingying, and immediately felt a little different: the other party's eyes were clear and bright, the face was red, the wrinkles on his face seemed to be missing, and the roots of his temples were faintly black...

"Did you see it?" Liu Lingying smiled so happily: "Since you taught that mysterious Taoist scripture, I have not been to the Cuju Club to watch martial arts competitions these days, and I have only studied the principles described in the scriptures and finally gained some gains."

Liu Lingying was humble, but in fact, she had not gained anything. She had been stuck in the pass in the past ten years. However, after all, she had studied Taoist sect and martial arts for most of her life, and had some vague concepts in her mind. However, the general scriptures of the "Nine Yin Scriptures" helped her to get confused and hesitated and illuminated the way forward. Therefore, she has been busy refining essence into qi these days. She has not hesitated to remove the powerful but complicated internal forces that have been obtained by practicing hard and taking spiritual medicine for decades. She has already achieved some results, and only then will the vision that Xue Chang saw will appear.

"Congratulations to the Empress of the Great Emperor!" Xue Chang sincerely congratulated: "This is the result of the Empress's hard work for many years. I dare not take credit for my younger generations!"

Xue Chang said the truth, but after hearing this, Liu Lingying smiled even more, and said to the left of her finger: "This is the legitimate mother of the Empress Dowager of the current dynasty and the eldest princess, why don't you come and see me!"

During this period, Xue Chang had a clear understanding of why Luo Lanmeng, a disciple of the Goddess Palace, became the eldest princess again. The empress dowager in front of him had a great grudge with Luo Lanmeng's mother. Xue Chang controlled his emotions and tried to calmly go forward to pay homage: "Xiaomin Xue Chang pays homage to the empress dowager!"

Empress Dowager Jiang looked at Xue Chang in front of her with a complicated expression: This person is the culprit of her nephew's inability to become the son-in-law. As the empress dowager of the dynasty, she had no way to deal with him, because the imperial concubine protected him, and the emperor also valued him. Even her father, Duke Yue Jiang Mu, brought her a message yesterday, telling her that the prince-in-law selected by the emperor is so young that she will become a warrior in the country protection world. In the future, the situation in the north is tense, and Jun'er may be sent out to lead troops to fight in the future, so it is best to make a good deal with him.

Empress Dowager Jiang was thinking a lot and said lightly: "Don't give me a gift, just keep your body calm."

Then Xue Chang paid homage to Empress Lin and Concubine Liu respectively.

According to wedding customs, the future son-in-law came to visit his parents' family to chat about family matters, so Liu Lingying smiled and said to the eunuch beside him: "Turn a chair for him."

As the chair was brought, Xue Chang sat down.

Liu Lingying asked kindly: "What relatives do you have in your family?"

As soon as he asked this, Empress Lin was a little confused. Seeing this, Concubine Liu whispered a few words to her. Unlike Empress Lin, who is from a scholarly family, Concubine Liu, the daughter of a Duke of Qin, has more knowledge about martial arts affairs, and also asked her younger brother Liu Yanjin to inquire about Xue Chang's life experience.

When Empress Lin learned that Xue Chang was the victim of the Hot Spring Inn bloody case that shocked the court the year before yesterday, she understood why the Imperial Concubine asked this question, and she couldn't help but feel pity in her eyes.

"There is also an aunt, a sister and an old housekeeper who is regarded as an elder by Xiaomin." Xue Chang replied seriously: "In addition, Xiaomin's apprentices can be regarded as relatives."

The Imperial Concubine continued with a little apology: "The wedding time is relatively tight. The main reason is that the emperor has always paid attention to the promises and wants to fulfill them in time to avoid creating a bad impression on the heads of the martial arts sects who attended the palace banquet that night. In addition, the birth dates and horoscopes of the eldest princess have been tested by the Imperial Heaven Survey using Ziwei Doushu. July 20th is the day when you two are lucky, so it is set on that day. However, in this way, your aunt will not be able to catch up with the wedding."

Xue Chang didn't have much to say about this.

"I heard from the eldest princess that you and she met during the Pingqiang War, and you saved her life, right?" Liu Guifei asked curiously.

"No, it was actually the eldest princess who saved the life of the little people first." Xue Chang corrected.

"Oh, who saved whose life, can you tell me in detail?" Concubine Liu was even more curious. Even Queen Lin showed an interesting expression. As expected, women love gossip, even if their identity is noble.

Xue Chang had no choice but to briefly tell the story of his acquaintance with Luo Lanmeng, and of course, he omitted those inappropriate plots.

At this time, Luo Lanmeng and his maid were walking in the imperial garden, but were just among the strange flowers and plants fighting for beauty. Luo Lanmeng was not only not intoxicated, but was a little absent-minded. Finally, she couldn't help asking: "Xiyue, Xue Lang entered the palace to receive lottery today, so he should meet the emperor's grandmother, right?"

The maid named Xiyue responded: "Counting the time, I should have seen it."

Luo Lanmeng immediately turned around and walked back, saying, "I'll take a look, then I'll take a look and come back quietly."

Xiyue immediately knelt on the ground with a pounce and begged: "Princess, men and women are not allowed to meet before the wedding. This is the rule! Besides, the Taihuang Concubine has great magical powers. No matter how secret you are, princess, don't want to hide it from her. At that time, the Taihuang Concubine's punishment will be released, and I am afraid I will never be able to serve the princess again!"

It has been less than a year since Xiyue was assigned to Yaohua Palace, but Luo Lanmeng is kind-hearted and she will not be afraid if she punished herself. But if she let this maid who has been serving her wholeheartedly and does not feel lonely in the palace, Luo Lanmeng would be unable to bear it and stomped her feet anxiously and said, "Okay, get up, I won't go."

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a large silver-gray cuckoo on the top of a crabapple tree next to her tilted its tail and chirping.

Luo Lanmeng felt inexplicably unhappy, and lightly tapped her toes, used her light skills to the end of the world, and instantly rushed to the crabapple tree.

The big cuckoo was crying, and suddenly was pinched in his hand. He was stunned and even forgot to peck at people with his sharp beak.

Luo Lan dreamed of the dumb look of the cuckoo in her hand, and couldn't help but smile and tapped her head with her fingers: "Don't scream again next time, do you know?" After saying that, his palm spread out, and the cuckoo immediately flapped his wings and flew away without a trace as if he was running away.

Luo Lanmeng clapped her hands and fell to the ground lightly.
