Chapter 174 Grace
Yan Xun'er handed a letter to Youying, which was written by Gu Qixiu. No one in the Hu Xiao army would disobey. With the help of Hu Xiao army, the chance of success is at least 80%. This is not the most important thing. The important thing is to let them know that Gu Qixiu helped them, so that Gu Muqing's plan to disagree with each other would collapse immediately.
"We also want to tell Prince Chen, don't quarrel with each other tomorrow." Yan Xun'er reminded him with concern that the people in the army were straightforward. If the quarrel started, who would know if they would do something stupid? If this happened, there was really nothing we could do.
Yan Xun'er was still a little worried. These people had been following Gu Qixiu on the battlefield for a long time, so they were naturally generous, but they were not willing to be outdone when they quarreled, so they still had to make good arrangements. Tomorrow, Prince Chen would advise Concubine Hui to be the queen, and this time they must succeed. As long as they read Gu Qixiu's mark on the letter, there would be no problem.
What made Yan Xun'er worried was Prince Chen's reckless son. He was straightforward and not suitable for surviving in the officialdom. He even became the position of Minister of Finance that everyone wanted. If Prince Chen had not been for his face, he would have been designed to leave the capital long ago. Yan Xun'er would have specially reminded her brother.
"Do you want to tell Concubine Hui?" Youying received the order, nodded, and asked hesitantly, "Concubine Hui is not aware of this."
"I won't tell her first that the most natural expression will be after tomorrow's success." Yan Xun'er shook her head. Without agreeing to Youying's words, the things she performed are not real and will make people doubt it. It's better not to tell her nothing. Tomorrow's expression must be the most real.
After Youying left, Yan Xun'er thought carefully about what had happened in the past few days, and always felt that things were not that simple. It seemed that there were eyes staring at her. This feeling was very bad, but Yan Xun'er didn't know who the person behind her was, and she was a little worried.
"Since the beginning of entering the palace, there was something wrong. Apart from Chaoxia and Yehe, there was another mysterious Mingxuan Kingdom. These countries had some connections, but they didn't know who had such a great power to manage these major countries behind them." Yan Xun'er murmured to herself, without any clues. Just as she thought about this, Yan Xun'er fell asleep and was called up early the next morning.
"When is it?" Yan Xun'er felt sleeping soundly. When she opened her eyes, it was already dawn. She asked her little palace maid who called her in a hurry. She couldn't be late for the morning court today.
"There is still half an hour left to go to the morning court." The little palace maid answered frankly. Compared to Xiao Tan, she was still afraid of Yan Xun'er. Maybe the people in the palace were used to such humility and fear.
"You go down first, prepare." Yan Xun'er quickly changed her clothes and set off after she was ready.
After Yan Xun'er arrived, it was just the beginning of the morning court. Fortunately, it was not late. Yan Xun'er stood aside with her head down, looking straight, and the rest depends on Prince Chen's performance.
"The emperor has issued an order. The world is peaceful and the people are rich. The emperor is very happy. Therefore, Prince Chen and the national teacher will supervise the country tomorrow. Those who are not determined will report it again." Gao Chuan shouted loudly and announced Gu Muqing's decision. The court immediately discussed it, but no one dared to say anything. One of them knelt down and all knelt down, shouting loudly at the emperor's wiseness, making Gu Muqing nod with satisfaction.
"I hope all my beloved ministers will help you to make the world stable." Gu Muqing said with a smile, nodded slightly to Prince Chen, indicating that Prince Chen should talk about Concubine Hui's reign.
"If you have something to report, you will leave the court without anything to do." Gao Chuan shouted in a sensible manner, and the court was very quiet.
"Go back to the emperor, I have something to report." Prince Chen walked out of Gu Muqing's satisfied gaze and said loudly.
"What do you want to report to me if you love me?" Gu Muqing asked knowingly, but she was obviously a little anxious.
"I have experienced the governance of the three dynasties and know that the harem will be stable and there will be nothing in the world. Now that the empress has passed away for more than a year, the position of the empress is empty, which is not the best. Therefore, I request the emperor to establish the empress." Prince Chen was in an orderly manner and took the lead in kneeling down with a very earnest expression. Most of the ministers behind him were Prince Chen's people, so he knelt down and shouted loudly to let Gu Muqing stand up.
"I.'Gu Muqing was about to agree, but a minister actually stood up and interrupted Gu Muqing's words.
"Emperor, the Empress Dowager has just passed away. It is really not appropriate for the Emperor to hold a ceremony for the Empress Dowager. The border has been unstable recently, and the Emperor still has to care about the treasury." This minister is from the Ling family to which the Empress Dowager belongs. No wonder he is loyal to the Empress Dowager like this and is also targeting Concubine Hui like this. When Yan Xun'er left, he once joined several ministers to report to Gu Muqing to depose Concubine Hui. Fortunately, Prince Chen is here, otherwise there might not be Concubine Hui now. Yan Xun'er secretly remembered this minister.
"This is a bad statement. Only when there is a lord in the harem can the emperor be at ease with national affairs. Hongjie, tell me about the situation of the treasury." Prince Chen shook his head and immediately refuted, asking Chen Hongjie to explain the situation of the treasury.
"Return to the emperor, the national treasury is full, and even if a war occurs, it will be enough to support it." Chen Hongjie was finally smarter and continued to speak according to Prince Chen's intention, which made Yan Xun'er secretly relieved.
"Emperor, this is a joint letter from the soldiers of the Tiger Roar Army. We have heard of Concubine Hui's virtuousness and gentleness in the palace. We specially wrote a letter to ask the Emperor to make Concubine Hui the queen." A person who looked like an officer stood up and handed the memorial in his hand. Gu Muqing was even more happy when she heard it, and her vigilance for the Tiger Roar Army became much smaller.
"Okay, since that's the case, I issued an order to make Concubine Hui the queen, and to be the mother of the world, command the six palaces, choose an auspicious day to perform the enthronement ceremony, and hand it over to the Ministry of Rites for preparation." Gu Muqing waved her hand and decided on the enthronement, which made Yan Xun'er relieved. Finally, she succeeded and everything in the future was in control.
"Retreat the court." Gao Chuan's sharp voice sounded, and the ministers came out one after another. Yan Xun'er secretly exchanged glances. Prince Chen nodded clearly and looked at the minister who had opposed it before, full of coldness.
"Empress, Empress, the emperor has just issued an order to enthrone the Empress as Empress. Now all the ministers are waiting for the Empress to appear." Concubine Hui was a little dazed in the Hongying Palace, thinking about when he would take revenge. She joined hands with Yan Xun'er, only envying the mandarin ducks but not the immortals. Suddenly, her thoughts were interrupted by the voice of the little palace maid.
"What?" Concubine Hui stood up in surprise and asked in disbelief.
"Empress, this is the queen's crown and phoenix robe. Empress quickly change her clothes. The emperor and the ministers are still waiting." The little palace maid said anxiously. The several palace maids and eunuchs behind her were each one with a tray. The things on them were extremely exquisite and their clothes were extremely gorgeous. The gold-made back crown is inlaid with precious gems, and the phoenix shape also holds a huge pearl in its mouth, which is rare in the world. The red hairpin made of various precious materials is filled with several trays.
At the end, there were three large brocade boxes, inside which were full set of phoenix robes, from the inside with golden thread embroidered bellybands, the best underwear made of Shu brocade, and the close-fitting silk skirt, which was dazzling. The wide sleeves were embroidered with two phoenixes spreading their wings and flying, and were decorated with hundreds of colorful pearls. The silk skirt was like flowing clouds and water. It was made of silk sprinkled by the best golden silkworm pupae. There was only one in the world, and there was no one in the thousands of golden silkworm pupae, and the silk produced was even less pitiful. If it weren't for the years of accumulation in the country of Glazing, there would be no such thing as this silk skirt. Even if it weren't for the fact that it was embroidered in everything, it would have been priceless, let alone the best embroiderer embroidered for three days and three nights.
Only then can we achieve such a lifelike expression, like a real phoenix descending. There are hundreds of small phoenixes embroidered on the long skirt behind. I don’t know how much effort it took. When Yan Zhiqing was in the rear, she had just stopped in civil strife and was not so extravagant, so this time it was definitely a great grace.
Concubine Hui was a little stunned and allowed the people around her to change into this dazzling phoenix robe, painted appropriate makeup, and then helped herself to the place where Gu Muqing went to the morning court.
"The Empress is so beautiful. This phoenix robe is so compatible with the Empress." The little palace maid next to her felt the nervousness of Concubine Hui and spoke to her, hoping that she could help Concubine Hui. It was the little palace maid who went to Gu Muqing to risk his life to speak for Concubine Hui that day.
"It's a pity that the person I'm going to go to is not what I think." Concubine Hui sighed quietly, remembering Yan Xun'er's kindness to her. If Yan Xun'er is waiting for her now, Concubine Hui will definitely rush over quickly.
"What the Empress said, I didn't hear it clearly." The little palace maid looked at Concubine Hui incomprehensible. Concubine Hui smiled gently, looking a little sad, and shook her head with a smile, without answering, but the steps made people look a little heavy.
From afar, Concubine Hui saw Yan Xun'er and ignored Gu Muqing, who was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe in the center. Concubine Hui looked straight at the red figure in her heart.
Walking straight forward, Concubine Hui didn't know how many times she had imagined that she could wear the queen's luxurious clothes, and then let Gu Muqing and Liuli go to destruction step by step. But now looking at Yan Xun'er, she was thinking about the person she was heading to, that would be great if Yan Xun'er.
Concubine Hui thought about it for so long, but in the eyes of others, she only thought that Concubine Hui could not accept such a big blow for the time being, so she performed like this.
