In Qi Yun’s boudoir in the inner courtyard of Liu Mansion, Qi Yun served Liu Mingzhi and took off the ordinary Confucian shirt he wore at home, put it on his arm and moved towards the wardrobe behind the screen.
“Husband, what color formal attire are you wearing today?”
Liu Mingzhi straightened the belt on his inner lining and walked towards Qi Yun: "Black or black will do. The border army general is escorting the enemy general back to the capital. You can't dress too casually.
Black, black clothes look more solemn. They braved the freezing weather to guard the border and protect their homes and country. They cannot let them feel that their husbands do not value them, the border army generals."
Qi Yun paused as she went to get the clothes, then glanced back at her husband, her eyes falling on several luxurious and majestic dragon robes on the left side of the wardrobe.
Ever since the dressing room measured my body and cut out these dragon robes for my husband, my husband has never touched them!
Even on the day he ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, he wore nothing more than ordinary formal clothes.
After hesitating for a moment, Qi Yun picked up the dark black dragon robe with some bright yellow auspicious clouds in the middle, held it in her hand and gently stroked it a few times.
Comparing to the other dragon robes, this deep black dragon robe has no gold or silver thread embellishment and only nine less obvious five-clawed dragons surrounding it, but it gives off a sense of righteousness and majesty.
“Husband, how do you like this?”
Liu Mingzhi rolled up his sleeves and glanced up. Looking at the dragon robe in Qi Yun's hand, he was stunned subconsciously: "Dragon... dragon robe?"
“Husband, you are now the king of a country. You can wear ordinary clothes at home or when going out. You can’t wear ordinary formal clothes even after going to court, right?
Three years have passed since you proclaimed yourself emperor.
I and my sisters have not seen you wearing a dragon robe yet!
Just wear it once and let me see it!"
Liu Mingzhi stared blankly at the dragon robe in Qi Yun's hand and fell silent.
After a long time, Liu Mingzhi nodded silently: "Then wear it once!
Lady, serve and change clothes for your husband.”
Qi Yun nodded lightly and smiled. She turned around and picked up various accessories from the closet. She opened the dragon robe with both hands and walked towards Liu Mingzhi. She carefully helped Liu Mingzhi put on the complicated dragon robe.
After a while, Qi Yun finally buckled a dragon-patterned jade belt around her husband's waist, slowly took a few steps back, and looked at Liu Mingzhi carefully with her beautiful eyes.
Looking at her husband, who was completely different from before in his majestic aura, Qi Yun's eyes were full of affectionate obsession.
“Husband!”
Liu Mingzhi lowered his head and examined the dragon robe on his body, raised his hands high and turned around: "How is it? You haven't gained weight in the past few years, have you? Does it still fit you?"
Qi Yun smiled and nodded slightly: "Handsome, majestic, good, and extraordinary."
“Haha, silly lady, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Well, it’s time for my husband to enter the palace.”
“Husband, wait a minute!”
Young Master Liu was slightly startled when he went to get the cloak. He turned to look at Qi Yun, who was walking towards the closet again with a light step: "Yun'er, what's wrong?"
Qi Yun came over from the compartment under the wardrobe holding a sandalwood box. Young Master Liu glanced at it and naturally knew what the sandalwood box contained, and shook his head helplessly.
“Yun’er, there’s no need for my husband to see this.
It doesn’t matter if you wear a dragon robe. If you wrap yourself in a big cloak, others won’t see it. A flat crown would be too eye-catching.
Although it’s not far from our house to the palace gate, it’s not close either. Wouldn’t this disturb the people?”
Qi Yun pursed her lips, grabbed Mr. Liu's wrist and walked towards her dressing table, and sat her reluctant husband on the round stool.
“Isn’t it okay to take a carriage?
Having already put on the dragon robe, you can't still wear this Confucian scholar's turban hair accessory, right?
You don’t think there’s anything awkward about wearing a long cloak without revealing the dragon robe, but once you take off the long cloak outside the dragon robe, it will look nondescript.
When you enter the palace and meet hundreds of civil and military officials and generals in the Qinzheng Hall, what will they think when they see your appearance? What will they think?
I guess you should think that the concubine’s sisters do not respect women’s virtues and cannot even take care of their husband’s appearance.
If this happens, won’t it mean that my sisters will have a bad reputation for not being virtuous and virtuous?
Can you just take pity on my sister?"
“Then it’s okay to use a sky crown or a feather crown. The flat crown is too ostentatious. You know I don’t like this as a husband..."
“Where is your husband!”
Hearing Qi Yun’s tingling voice of resentment in his ears, Young Master Liu smiled bitterly and nodded: “Okay, okay! Just let the crown of the sky be the crown of the sky.
For the husband, the more than a hundred pounds of today will be given to the good lady, you can toss casually. "
“Thank you husband, you are so kind!”
Seeing that her husband finally agreed to her request, Qi Yun smiled and pulled off the silk scarf on Liu Mingzhi's hair, picked up the items she usually used for dressing up, and skillfully helped Liu Mingzhi tidy up his messy hair.
About the time of tea, Qi Yun used a hair tie to fix Liu Dashao's meticulously groomed hair, gently opened the sandalwood brocade box on the side, and took out the flat crown with twelve crowns in a light movement.
Every treasure on the Pingtian Crown Chain is made according to the ancestral regulations, and there is no error at all.
Young Master Liu pulled the jade belt that held the Pingtian crown on his chin and moved his neck. He casually fiddled with the crown that hung down to his chin, and stood up with a sigh.
“The Pingtian crown is too heavy, and the crowns are numerous and long, blocking the view. It’s better to tie it up casually with a silk scarf.”
Qi Yun ignored Mr. Liu's complaint, stared at her husband carefully for a while, and gave him a gentle blessing.
"I am...not right...I, my concubine, see your majesty, long live my emperor."
"Dede, Yun'er, stop teasing your husband. He has already put on his clothes. It's time for him to enter the palace."
Don’t put away those regular clothes yet; your husband will have to put them on after he leaves the palace!"
“Husband, Heavenly Sword!”
Qi Yun saw her husband walking towards the door after a disagreement. She quickly picked up the Heavenly Sword hanging on the wall and chased after Young Master Liu.
Looking at Qi Yun who put the Heavenly Sword on her waist with great care, Young Master Liu was a little surprised.
“In the past, warriors other than husbands would tremble when they touched the Heavenly Sword. Why are you okay now if you touch it?”
“I don’t know either. It seems that since you broke through the innate realm, my sisters have been able to touch the Heavenly Sword, and there has never been any feeling of internal force shock.”
Young Master Liu patted the scabbard of Tianjian in confusion: "Maybe it's because after my husband broke through, Tianjian felt that he no longer needed to protect his master.
Heck, never mind, the sword will be the same as it is.
I went to the palace first for my husband!”
“Okay, leave early and come back early.”
As soon as Mr. Liu left the inner courtyard, he howled at the top of his lungs: "Liu Song, where did you go like this? Please prepare a carriage for me."
"Here it is! Here it is! Come on... Young Master... Young Master?"
“Why, I don’t recognize you in this outfit? Doesn’t it still look good?”
“Great! The young master is even more heroic than when he wore armor, and he looks down on the world.”
“If you have the foresight, prepare the carriage and enter the palace immediately.”
“Yes, please, Master!”
A moment later, a carriage left the Liu Mansion and drove slowly towards the palace gate.
"Who's in front of you? No carriages are allowed in front of the palace gate, so leave quickly..."
Yang Tai, the commander of the imperial army, was stunned as he spoke. He looked at Mr. Liu who jumped off the carriage and was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses. This was the first time he saw Liu Mingzhi's majestic appearance in a dragon robe.
"I have come to see Your Majesty and respectfully welcome Your Majesty back to the palace."
“We sincerely welcome His Majesty back to the palace.”
“No courtesy, no need to be formal!”
“Thank you, Your Majesty!”
"Zhou Aiqing, Ye Aiqing, Yelu Aiqing... have they entered the palace?"
“Replying to Your Majesty, Rongweihou sent someone to report half an hour ago. They are now arranging to escort the enemy general’s soldiers who have entered the capital to station themselves at the Forbidden Army Campus in the city.
Once they are settled properly, the enemy prisoners will be escorted into the palace to see His Majesty."
"Well! I'm going to the Qinzheng Palace first. When Zhou Aiqing and the others enter the palace later, they don't need to check, they can enter the palace directly."
