Chapter 53: A Match Made in Heaven(1/2)
Chapter 53 A match made in heaven (second update)
That night, a grand banquet was held in Haoyang Palace, with singing and dancing, and the sound of silk and bamboo could be heard all the time.
The dignitaries and ministers toasted to Wanyanlie one after another.
Wanyanlie just took a sip, while the powerful ministers drank it all in one gulp.
However, there are also a small number of ministers who don't buy Wan Yan Lie's account at all. Instead of toasting, they always say some weird things.
Zhao Xueying truly understood how difficult it is for an emperor to be king.
Wanyan Lie was sitting on the main seat. Behind him was a gold-plated screen with a howling wolf. A wolf howled under the crescent moon, solemn and cold.
The Queen Mother sat on the right side of him, and Zhao Xueying, as the future queen, sat on the Queen Mother's side, followed by several rows of royal ladies, including Duoduo.
Opposite them are powerful ministers.
The Queen Mother raised her cup to Wanyanlie.
"Ariel, my mother, let me have a drink with you. I hope you will love your people like a son and that our country, Dajin, will be peaceful and peaceful."
Wanyan Lie raised his glass in response.
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
"Arlie, the day before yesterday you said that the Ai family should pass the Phoenix Seal to the queen. The Ai family thought about it and thought it was inappropriate. Firstly, the queen has not yet performed the canonization ceremony; secondly, the queen is young and can manage a small palace.
, but managing a huge harem still requires experience; thirdly, I heard that the queen presides over the Wenyan School, so I’m afraid she doesn’t have the time to manage the harem.”
As soon as these words were spoken, a stone stirred up a thousand waves.
Immediately gained support from some ministers.
"Reporting to the Khan, what the Queen Mother said is true. The Queen did not perform the canonization ceremony, so in what capacity is she in charge of the harem?"
"Yes, Khan, it is not too late to take over Phoenix Seal after the Queen's coronation ceremony. This period of time is just enough for the Queen Mother to teach her."
"To the Khan, since the queen is the mother of the country, she cannot show her face at will. On the one hand, she will be easily targeted by people with ulterior motives, and on the other hand, it will also hinder the majesty of the royal family."
…
These people were acting in a strange way just now.
At this time, it can be said that there are hundreds of responses to one call.
But before they finished speaking, more voices came out.
"Reporting to the Khan, the phoenix seal has been in the hands of the queen in all dynasties. When the first khan was alive, there was no queen, so the phoenix seal was kept by the queen mother. Now that the queen is young and powerful, what is the reason for dominating the phoenix seal?"
"Reporting to the Khan, the Wenyan School has flourished and benefited the people of the place. It is a manifestation of the joy of the monarch and the people. The people are the clear water and the monarch is the boat. This benefits the people and allows the people to support the monarch and get closer to the people.
, what’s wrong?”
"Khan, heroes have been born since ancient times. The Queen Mother is already old. She should no longer have to worry about the tedious affairs in the harem. She should give up the phoenix seal as early as possible to take care of herself."
"Khan, the Queen Mother has a good reputation and has not passed on the Phoenix Seal to the Queen. People who know about it think she feels sorry for the Queen. People who don't know think she is greedy for power and undermines the Queen Mother's wisdom."
…
The more the Queen Mother listened, the angrier she became, and her chest heaved with anger.
"Shut up!! You are all talking nonsense! The Ai family feels sorry for Ariel's newlyweds, but you guys talk about her like this. It's extremely disgusting!"
Wanyanlie said calmly: "Mother, thank you for caring about your son. Family affairs and national affairs concern the world. As a khan, the son naturally puts state affairs first. As a woman who is a khan, the queen will naturally put the overall situation first. The empress only cares about the Phoenix Seal.
Just pass it on to the queen."
"you……"
The Queen Mother was about to have a fit, but she endured it, looked at Zhao Xueying, and changed the subject.
"Although Ariel said so, the queen is not familiar with the customs of Dajin, and is busy with the affairs of the Wenyan School. I am afraid that she is not very busy. Isn't she the queen?"
Zhao Xueying is soft, well-educated, gentle and virtuous, and she is easy to bully at first glance.
The Queen Mother wanted to use this to get a chance.
Zhao Xueying looked at Wanyan Lie. His eyes were deep and he was looking at her intently.
"Thank you, Queen Mother, for your concern. Wenyan School is on the right track. I have plenty of time and energy, and managing the harem is my responsibility. I will definitely keep the Phoenix Seal and manage the harem in an orderly manner."
The corners of Wanyan Lie's mouth slightly raised, and he praised her very much.
She spoke appropriately, and there was no way for anyone to argue with her words of "one's duty". As expected, Bingxue was smart.
"you……"
Seeing that the Queen Mother was speechless, a cold voice said: "In that case, for one month, if the Queen can manage the harem in an orderly manner, she will be qualified to take charge of Fengyin. If she cannot, she will have to let
The Queen Mother is in charge of the harem, a little bit like the Queen Mother."
The man was over fifty years old and his name was Tamu. He had a fleshy face and a pair of terrifyingly narrow eyes.
This request was really rude, and just as Wanyan Lie was about to get angry, Zhao Xueying said calmly.
"There are many affairs in the palace. One month is too short. Your Excellency has made outstanding achievements. Naturally, you know that a thousand-mile embankment cannot be built in a day."
"You, how long do you think it will take?"
"Three months."
The Queen Mother said: "Okay, three months."
The affairs in the palace were complicated and complicated. She did not believe that Zhao Xueying could manage the harem in three months. Moreover, she had managed the harem for many years and had many powers. Three months was simply a fantasy and an idiot's dream.
After this move, many people have changed their views on Zhao Xueying. Although she is weak, she is extremely smart and can overcome strength with softness.
It is said that handsome men are obsessed with women and cannot help themselves. It is difficult not to like such a woman, right?
The party lasted until late.
Wanyanlie took Zhao Xueying and left the table first, and everyone watched them leave.
One is tall and handsome, and the other is delicate and charming. They are truly a man, a talented woman, and a perfect match made in heaven.
Outside Haoyang Palace.
Wanyan Lie grabbed Zhao Xueying.
Zhao Xueying thought something was wrong with him and looked at him doubtfully.
Unexpectedly, Wanyanlie bent down and picked her up.
"Are you sleepy?"
Wanyan Lie always knew that Zhao Xueying had the habit of going to bed early. It was so late, so she must be very sleepy.
"fine."
Zhao Xueying covered her mouth and let out a big yawn as she spoke.
Both men laughed.
"Hold my neck and squint for a while."
Zhao Xueying looked around. There were soldiers standing guard and patrolling not far away, and palace people following them nearby.
"Not so good."
"What's the matter? Sooner or later they will get used to it."
What a domineering statement.
Zhao Xueying yawned again, tears welling up in her eyes.
"good."
Zhao Xueying put her arms around Wanyanlie's neck and rested her head on his shoulder.
Really sleepy.
Snow lives in the palace.
This was originally the palace where the queen lived. Wanyan Lie ordered people to renovate it and put a new plaque on it - Snow Residence Palace.
Wanyan Lie really has a special liking for the word "snow residence".
Seeing Wanyan Lie about to put her on the bed, Zhao Xueying struggled with sleepiness.
He murmured: "I haven't showered yet, so I can't go to bed."
Even though I can't even open my eyelids, I still want to take a bath.
"It's too late today, can you take a shower tomorrow morning?"
Zhao Xueying was really sleepy, so she compromised.
"Um."
Wanyanlie sat Zhao Xueying on the bed, took off her headdress and took off her clothes.
During this period, Zhao Xueying closed her eyes and looked extremely sleepy.
Faced with the hair accessories on her head, Wanyan Lie had no idea what to do.
