Chapter 356 I Was Not There When We Got Married

When talking about this matter, Nalan Zhuer's smile was very bright.

"Cen Jue promised me a long time ago."

Now, it was Lin Qingning's turn to feel a little envious.

After seeing off the two little sisters, Lin Qingning stood in front of the window. She murmured, "Banxia, ​​if I had grown up in the Lin family and had great medical skills, would I be able to go to the battlefield with Aya and the others right now?"

At that time, she was qualified to be a military doctor.

Banxia was stunned for a moment, and suddenly she longed for that scene, "Master, you must bring me with you when the time comes!"

"I am very strong and can carry the medicine box for you. I will also carry a lot of medicinal herbs."

"By the way, I can also protect you!"

Just thinking about that scene makes one's blood boil.

But the next moment, Banxia suddenly said, "But Master, if that happens, what will happen to the Crown Prince and the little princess?"

Lin Qingning chuckled and shook her head. "It was just an imaginary scene. You are quite into the role."

It's really just a thought.

Because she is now the Crown Princess, someone else's wife, and someone else's mother.

Since she avenged her family, she has started a new life.

There are also new responsibilities.

Lin Qingning smiled with relief, "Although I envy Aya and the others, if I do a good job in my position, I can give more women like them freedom, right?"

Then help more women so that they will not be sacrificed by fate and can control their own destiny.

Is there any position more suitable than the future Queen?

Banxia didn't understand, but she smiled and said confidently:

"Anyway, wherever the master goes, I will go there!"

Lin Qingning smiled and said, "Okay, let's go to the East Palace first."

Then starting from the East Palace, take one step at a time and go further and further!

**

The eighth day of April is a good day to move into a new house and worship ancestors.

On the day of the enthronement ceremony, the weather was clear and cloudless.

Lin Qingning got up early in the morning and began to put on makeup, jewelry, and change into the Crown Princess's dress.

The golden book and golden seal used for the enthronement were prepared in advance.

The phoenix on the red dress is lifelike, and the bright red peony shows auspiciousness and splendor.

The phoenix bun was embellished with phoenix hairpins made of gems, gold and jade, and her makeup was done with a flower ornament between her eyebrows.

When the auspicious time arrived, the envoys came to Lin Qingning and read the imperial edict.

After the imperial edict was read, Lin Qingning, supported by Grandma Liao and others, knelt down to receive the edict and express her gratitude.

After expressing her gratitude, she was once again helped by the palace maids, sat on the phoenix chariot, and headed straight for the East Palace.

Along the way, people lined the streets, stopping to watch.

"Oh my god, I saw the Crown Princess, she's so beautiful!"

"She is so elegant and graceful. She doesn't look like an orphan from a poor family at all, does she?"

"The Crown Princess is so lucky!"

Everyone agreed with the last sentence.

Because the people of the entire capital city still remember that the Crown Princess was an orphan living in the Mansion of Marquis Guangping.

Her cousin stole her fiancé, so she could only marry into the Duke of Qin's mansion with a tablet in her arms.

But a few years passed.

The Duke Qin's Mansion was gone, her cousin, and her former fiancé were all gone.

The Guangping Marquis Mansion, where she once lived but treated her badly, also fell into decline.

But she wore gorgeous brocade robes and entered the East Palace.

That’s the East Palace!

An old man in the crowd stroked his beard and sighed:

"The Guangping Marquisate is really unlucky. The phoenix was supposed to land in their home, but they treated her like that."

"Also, I heard that the housekeeper of Guangping Marquis's Mansion adopted a child. That child is a prince of another country."

"I heard that Guangping Marquis Mansion didn't treat him very well either."

These sounds gradually faded away.

Drowned by the noisy sound of drums.

Lin Qingning sat in the phoenix chariot, her face calm and composed, her demeanor graceful.

When the phoenix chariot arrived at the Eastern Palace, Qin Jingyu, who had already performed the ceremony of enthroning the crown prince, was already waiting for her there.

When Lin Qingning was helped down from the phoenix chariot, she saw Qin Jingyu, who was supposed to be standing on the steps waiting for her to walk towards him, had already walked down quickly.

The etiquette officer next to him was about to say that this was not in accordance with etiquette.

Su Ziyuan beside him pulled him aside and whispered, "Sir, the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess are in perfect harmony, this is a good story."

So etiquette and the like are not important.

The etiquette officer was stunned.

By the time he reacted, the Crown Prince had already held the Crown Princess's hand and walked up the stairs.

You can proceed to the next step.

Never mind, just pretend you didn’t see it.

The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess were very close to each other.

Qin Jingyu whispered: "Qing Ning, how do you feel? If you feel uncomfortable, be sure to tell me."

Lin Qingning: "It's okay, the child is very well behaved today."

It's obviously not formed yet.

But the child seemed to know that today was a big day for his parents.

So very well-behaved.

By the time the next few steps were completed, Lin Qingning's legs felt a little sore.

But fortunately, all that was left was to go into the palace and pay respects to the Empress Dowager and the Emperor.

Because there was no empress yet, Emperor Minghe made an exception and allowed Concubine Rou to be present as well.

It’s a complete package now, as they were not present when their two children got married.

While waiting outside the Golden Palace, Qin Jingyu quietly pinched Lin Qingning's fingers, and Lin Qingning subconsciously looked over.

He whispered, "In fact, I wasn't there when we got married."

Lin Qingning smiled, "But didn't you come later?"

Although he didn't make it to the wedding ceremony or the bridal chamber.

But he did not miss the wedding wine.

The two of them have completed half of the gift.

And today's enthronement ceremony has completely completed the remaining half.

When the time came, the prince and his wife entered the hall.

The Empress Dowager and Emperor Minghe sat in the center, while Concubine Rou sat a little further away.

The Queen Mother had a very loving face, as if she were an elder who really loved the younger generation.

But if you look closely, you'll find that her kind smile is a little fake.

Emperor Minghe smiled elegantly and gently, and the kindness on his face was more genuine.

As for Concubine Rou, who was sitting in a slightly off-center position, her eyes were already red and she was trying hard to hold back the tears in her eyes out of excitement.

She was so excited.

His own son was stolen and replaced by someone.

This caused the mother and son to miss out on more than 20 years of time.

Now, not only has his son been found, but he has also become the crown prince and has married and had children.

Concubine Rou has a delicate and gentle personality, so she was a little excited and couldn't control herself.

The Queen Mother glanced at her inconspicuously and said in a calm voice: "Rou Fei, if you are not feeling well, please leave first."

She is not the queen yet and has no right to sit here.

Concubine Rou immediately held back her tears and dared not cry anymore.

Because she couldn't bear to miss her son and daughter-in-law's big day.

Concubine Rou felt regretful enough for not being able to attend the couple's wedding, and she couldn't afford to miss their enthronement ceremony.

Emperor Minghe said gently: "Mother, today is a happy day, there is no need to be so strict."

The Queen Mother: "Emperor, etiquette and law cannot be abolished!"

Emperor Minghe: "Does your mother want you to immediately appoint Concubine Rou as the empress?"

The Queen Mother: "Are you really willing?"

Emperor Minghe: "I'm sure Nanqing will agree."

The Queen Mother's expression suddenly became uglier than if she had swallowed a fly, and she almost lost the kindness on her face.

She stopped talking.

Here, the prince and his wife came up hand in hand and knelt down.

"Greetings to the Imperial Grandmother, the Imperial Father, and the Imperial Mother."

After kneeling and paying respects, they were offered tea and given instructions one by one.

The Queen Mother took the tea but did not drink it immediately. Instead, she said to Lin Qingning:

"Lin, from now on, you will be the Crown Princess. You must be a good wife to the Crown Prince, consider him in everything, and respect him in everything."

Lin Qingning: "Yes."

The Queen Mother said: "You must handle the affairs of the Eastern Palace properly, and avoid any chaos, so that the Crown Prince can share the worries."

Lin Qingning: "Yes."

The Queen Mother: "As the mistress of the East Palace, you must not be jealous."

"You have to help the prince have children. If you can't do it yourself, you can't stop the prince from taking concubines."

"More children bring more blessings, and this is also the duty of your East Palace mistress."

It comes, it comes, it comes again.

Concubine Rou had some concerns.

Emperor Minghe frowned slightly.

Qin Jingyu was about to reach out to pull up Lin Qingning, who was still kneeling.

Because the Queen Mother didn't drink tea, Lin Qingning couldn't get up.

Lin Qingning said obediently: "The Royal Grandmother taught that the granddaughter-in-law should listen to the prince in everything in the future and will never be jealous."

This seemed to be in line with the Queen Mother's words.

But it seems that it is not completely applicable.

The Queen Mother was dissatisfied and frowned slightly. She was about to say something else, but Qin Jingyu had already helped Lin Qingning up without saying anything.

The loving smile on the Queen Mother's face suddenly disappeared.

Her voice turned cold, "Prince, I haven't finished admonishing you yet, why did you let the Crown Princess stand up?"

"You know, if this ceremony is not completed, she is not the legitimate Crown Princess!"

Concubine Rou beside her also nodded with mixed feelings.

After reading it, Emperor Minghe said to the empress dowager, "Mother, you have been talking for a long time and you must be thirsty. Drink the tea quickly!"

Concubine Rou also said weakly: "Yes, Queen Mother, Qing Ning and the others have been busy for most of the day and are tired. Anyway, they are all our family now..."

The Queen Mother looked over coldly, "Concubine Rou, who are you? You have no right to speak here!"

"I am not your family!"

"Either stay here quietly or get out!"

The Queen Mother has been feeling very angry for some time.

Just waiting for it to happen today.

But she couldn't scold the emperor or the prince, so she naturally got angry at Lin Qingning and Concubine Rou.

Concubine Rou's eyes instantly turned red when she was scolded. She pursed her lips and stood silently in the corner.

Emperor Minghe sighed when he saw this.

"Since my mother said so, I will enthrone Concubine Rou as the queen during the morning court tomorrow."

The Queen Mother suddenly raised her head and looked at Emperor Minghe, "Emperor, the Jiang family has fallen into decline, and Concubine Rou is just a concubine. With her personality, how can she be the Queen?"

Emperor Minghe: "Mother, have you forgotten that before you got married, you were also a concubine's daughter?"

Queen Mother: “…”
