He lowered his eyes anxiously and called the palace maid in a loud voice, "Go and ask a few people to follow Prince Lin. The banquet is about to begin. We can't let the prince run out of the palace!"
"Prince Lin cannot be allowed to leave the palace?" the palace maid repeated strangely, with a strange look on her face, "But Prince Lin has already led his horse out of the palace, saying that he is going to welcome Prince Jue of Xitan Kingdom to enter the palace for a flower banquet -
—”
"What?!"
Bei Mingyue's expression suddenly changed, "Oh no, he must have tried to prevent Xicheng Jue from entering the palace. Quick, inform His Highness the Crown Prince and ask him to come over immediately. I have something important to see him!"
"No need, I already know."
A voice as gentle as the wind sounded at the door of the west wing. Bei Mingyue turned around suddenly and saw Nangong Rui wearing the same bright red robe as her. The corners of the robe were trimmed with gold piping, and her feet were covered with soap embroidered with silver and red threads.
He wore boots, a small jade crown on his head, and a strand of chestnut-blond hair braided with dark jade, slanting around his forehead. It was obviously a simple outfit, but it made his whole person overflow with warmth.
Breath and free and easy demeanor.
Bei Mingyue was a little dazed for a moment, but Nangong Rui had no time to explain, so he grabbed her hand hurriedly, turned around and walked out, "Lin said he was going to hold back Xicheng Jue, but I can't stop him, so we are here now
We can only follow his idea and get married before Xicheng Jue arrives, so as not to give Xicheng Jue an opportunity to ruin our marriage ceremony!"
…
"Prince Xicheng Jue hasn't arrived yet?"
Seeing that half of the auspicious hour had passed, Nangong Yan's face had turned ugly. He couldn't help but ask again, and received an affirmative answer from Eunuch Su, "Your Majesty, half of the auspicious hour has passed, Your Highness."
If you don’t start the wedding ceremony with the Crown Princess, you will miss the auspicious moment!"
The world is vast and the auspicious time is the greatest. If the auspicious time is missed, then there is no need to hold this ceremony. How can Nangong Yan not be in a hurry?
But Xicheng Jue...
"Your Majesty, this old slave thinks that the Crown Prince of Xitan must have been delayed on the road for something. Look, isn't the Seventh Prince not here yet?"
Eunuch Jing's sharp voice echoed through the hall. The seventh prince was Nangong Lin.
The queen never wanted to see Eunuch Jing, who covered the sky with his hands. Now that she saw that he was using the topic to deliberately blame Nangong Lin for his absence, she raised her eyebrows and said with a slightly dissatisfied look on her face, "Eunuch Jing, Lin'er has not been in good health these past two days.
He is ill in bed and cannot come to attend Rui'er's marriage ceremony as a last resort. How can he be compared with the Crown Prince of Xitan who has many things to do?"
"Queen, please calm down, I'm just..."
Eunuch Jing was not a good person either. He had been in the imperial palace of Nanli Kingdom for many years and had many confrontations with the queen. He said he should calm down, but his words were very offensive, "I only heard about Prince Lin."
I also went to the Prince’s East Palace in the afternoon to tie up the future princess’s hair. Why did she fall ill again just a few hours later? Or should I say..."
"Eunuch Jing, please don't make irresponsible remarks if you haven't seen it with your own eyes!"
The queen was furious, slapped the phoenix throne hard, and pretended to stand up, "This palace is so angry. Lin'er and Crown Princess Bei Mingyue have been close friends for many years. Bei Mingyue is getting married, and Lin'er will act as a
Isn't it normal for a close friend to send blessings? Eunuch Jing, how could you..."
