But he heard Tang Youze's voice behind him, "Yaoyao, you and the Regent haven't been married yet, it's not appropriate for you to ride in the same carriage like this!"
Tang Chuyao felt contempt in her heart. Her grandfather, uncle, and her biological father hadn't said anything. When would it be the turn of an outsider like him to discipline her?
Gu Qingchen patted Tang Chuyao's back soothingly and said expressionlessly, "Wen Yongbo wants to wait until his carriage is repaired before leaving? I will explain to His Majesty for you. I believe His Majesty will definitely blame you!"
Tang Youze waved his hand quickly and said with a smile, "How dare I trouble the Regent? It would be great if Yaoyao and the Regent could ride in the same carriage. Great!"
After saying this, he was afraid that Gu Qingchen would regret it, so he immediately let down the curtain.
Chi Yuandao and his companions rode away first without even looking at Tang Youze.
Wanyan Jing suppressed his hatred and got on the carriage. The carriage slowly drove towards the palace, and Gu Qingchen's carriage followed closely behind.
Tang Youze's carriage was the last to set off, so when he arrived at the palace gate, he saw Tang Chuyao, Chi Yuandao and others already at the gate.
I had thought that I could follow the people from the General's Mansion and get a seat closer to the front, but I didn't expect that the people from the General's Mansion would always be like this! They would not take advantage of me at all!
Tang Youze shook his sleeves and walked towards the palace angrily...
The eunuch led the guests to their seats. Tang Youze looked left and right but still couldn't find Tang Chuyao. Chi Yuandao and Chi Bingren, father and son, had already sat down, but he didn't dare to walk over rashly.
The eunuch was still urging, "Master Wenyong, please come this way!"
Even though he found some faults in his words, his eyes and tone were full of disdain!
Tang Youze had no choice but to follow and sit in the seat closest to the door, which was also the farthest away from the emperor.
The guests have arrived, and everyone is chatting with those they are familiar with. The hall is magnificent, and each guest's table is placed with wine and fruit.
The aroma of wine filled the air, the sound of people chatting continued, and it was a lively scene.
At this moment, the eunuchs' chanting sounded, "The Prince of Nanyang has arrived! The county magistrate has arrived!"
The guests stood up one after another to greet him. Behind Xiao He, Chi Mei and Xiao Gui were seen walking slowly towards the hall.
Xiao He led the two to his own position, which was the closest to the middle position.
Before the guests had a chance to sit down, they heard, "Prince Jing is here!"
Everyone bowed and greeted. Prince Jing was the fourth prince at the time. He sat next to the third prince. The other princes had not arrived yet.
Then I heard the eunuch say, "The Third Prince of the Liao Dynasty has arrived! The Duke has arrived!"
Wanyan Liyue was originally under house arrest by Wanyan Jing, but she still had to attend occasions like this. Wanyan Jing did not come with Wanyan Liyue, but went to the General's Mansion to meet Chi Yuandao and others first.
When Wanyan Jing arrived at the palace gate, Wanyan Liyue was already waiting there, so she brought her in.
She was dressed in luxurious clothes every day. The fine silk gleamed brightly in the candlelight. She wore a golden crown on her head. Her hair was braided into thin braids. An eye-catching jade necklace was worn around her neck.
She wore a golden bell on her wrist, which made clear and pleasant sounds as she walked.
She had a decent smile on her face, and every frown and smile was captivating.
Wanyan Liyue was the most beautiful woman in the Liao Dynasty. As expected, she had appeared, and waves of admiring voices were heard in the hall.
"Is this the most beloved little princess of the Liao king?"
"She is indeed a beauty!"
Wanyan Liyue seemed to have become much more honest, and she respectfully followed Wanyan Jing to her seat. They sat right opposite the King of Nanyang, which was also the position closest to the king's seat.
"Prince Rui has arrived! Prince An has arrived!" The eunuch's voice sounded again, and then two handsome princes walked in. Everyone immediately stood up and saluted.
Prince Rui was the second prince. He met the third prince, Prince An, at the gate of the palace and came together.
The two of them were talking and laughing, a harmonious scene of brotherly love and respect. They walked to their seats and sat down. Prince An and Prince Jing sat next to each other and smiled at Prince Jing.
Prince Rui walked straight to his seat and sat down. The seats of several people were arranged next to Prince Nanyang, so they could see Wanyan Jing and Wanyan Liyue opposite them as soon as they raised their eyes.
The moment King Rui saw Wanyan Liyue, he was stunned for a moment. This woman was more beautiful than the portrait!
"Prince Kang is here!" Everyone quickly stood up and bowed to greet the eldest prince.
Prince Kang looked sick and was helped by his personal eunuch to sit down. As soon as he sat down, he covered his mouth with a handkerchief and began to cough lightly.
Prince Rui asked with concern, "My brother, please take care of your health!"
Prince Kang smiled at Prince Rui and nodded, "Thank you for your concern, second brother!"
"The Regent is here!" The eunuchs at the door chanted, and everyone in the hall stood up and looked towards the door.
The leader was a handsome man, with a figure as tall as a pine tree, wearing a black python robe. The gorgeous fabric was embroidered with delicate dark patterns, and the collar and cuffs were trimmed with silver piping. He wore a white jade belt around his waist and an exquisite jade pendant.
His face was handsome to the point of being demonic, his eyebrows were like ink paintings, his narrow and long phoenix eyes were deep and cold, his high nose bridge was straight, his thin lips were slightly pursed, revealing a touch of easily detectable coldness. His long black hair was casually draped over his shoulders, tied up with a jade hairpin, with an innate majesty and dignity.
All the women present covered their mouths with handkerchiefs, their pretty faces flushed. The obsession in Wanyan Liyue's eyes was revealed, and it happened to be seen clearly by King Rui.
When Gu Qingchen stepped into the hall, he reached out and took the hand of Tang Chuyao beside him.
It was then that everyone noticed the woman next to Gu Qingchen. The woman was wearing a veil, so her face could not be seen, but the pair of eyes exposed were clear, bright, and very lively.
The woman's clothes shone brightly under the light, and her soft, jet-black hair was tied up with a jade hairpin, which made everyone feel familiar. Then they looked at Gu Qingchen's hair and found that they were both using the same style of jade hairpin!
Everyone was guessing the woman's identity. Who on earth could make the Regent pay so much attention to her?
The doting expression on the Regent's face was almost tangible. What was the identity of this woman?
Gu Qingchen took Tang Chuyao to their seat, which was close to Wanyan Jing. After sitting down, he nodded slightly towards Wanyan Jing as a greeting.
Wanyan Liyue sat next to Wanyan Jing, and Gu Qingchen sat next to her. She concealed her inner ecstasy, but when she saw Tang Chuyao next to Gu Qingchen, her eyes were fierce.
All this was seen by Prince Rui on the opposite side. He pretended to hold a teacup to hide his gaze.
The woman next to the Regent looked familiar. He remembered that the eldest daughter of the Wenyong Earl's mansion was ugly and wore a veil.
