Chapter 222 The Grand Princess Enters the Palace
When Chu Wenzong heard this, he snorted arrogantly.
This is certainly an honor.
Even when he first ascended the throne, he did not grant amnesty to the people.
The officials below looked at the royal family with even more solemn and respectful expressions, and they knelt down again with their families.
"We, greet Her Royal Highness the Princess!!!"
"Get up~"
Chu Youning laughed out loud.
The next step is to switch locations to the altar.
First, the Imperial Master would communicate with the spirits, then the Queen Mother and the Emperor and Empress would burn incense one by one, and only then would it be Chu Youning's turn to burn incense to the heavens and worship his ancestors.
After Chu Youning arrived at the altar and Qing Qianxue personally sprinkled rootless water on her with a willow branch, she just picked up the incense stick that was taller than her and prepared to worship toward the sky when a voice came from far away.
"I heard that my niece who had been living among the people was found. On such an important day of celebration today, the Empress Dowager and His Majesty did not even inform me.
As an aunt, I am really heartbroken~"
As soon as this voice came out.
All the royal family members present shuddered.
Especially Wu Qingyi.
The smile on her face almost froze in an instant.
[Oh, this is exciting! This sounds like a stunt~]
[But... the emperor's sister-in-law? Your Majesty? Could this... be the eldest princess? ]
[Am I so proud that I could actually lure this living Bodhisattva who has seen through the world to the mortal world?]
[It’s a pity that I don’t know what the older generation has. I’ll go and dig some more someday when I get the chance.]
Chu Youning quickly identified Chu Zhaohua's identity. Seeing that she was still far away, in order to prevent any trouble from happening, he prayed to the heavens as quickly as possible, and then steadily inserted the incense in his hand into the cauldron that was half his height.
"This eldest princess...is not an ordinary person. You should be more careful in the future."
At the side, Qing Qianxue lowered her voice and reminded Chu Youning.
"Thank you."
Chu Youning nodded lightly.
[The person who can make his good friends be careful in advance must have something interesting. I am more eager to eat melons. 】
Chu Zhaohua walked over at a moderate pace.
There were ten people following her.
All eight are nun-like.
There were two others wearing black hoods, and their faces were not clearly visible.
But... this did not prevent Chu Youning from quickly recognizing one of them.
[I was wondering why Chu Haoze was so quiet, as if he was dead. I searched for him in the capital for a long time but couldn't find him. It turns out he went to seek refuge with the Grand Princess.]
[That's not right. Wasn't Chu Haoze taken away by that marquis? Could it be that the marquis from that shitty country has a relationship with this eldest princess?]
[Yes, that would explain why those people are so familiar with the capital. ]
[Damn it, that bastard Chu Haoze killed everyone except the Grand Princess, and even let her collect the body for the royal family. I thought that this bastard was still grateful for the Grand Princess's kindness in sending him to the royal family.
Now it seems that these two people might have a big affair! 】
[Could it be that... this bastard is not Chu Wenzong's offspring, but Chu Zhaohua's? ]
Chu Wenzong's body was shaken instantly.
Below.
Except for Jiang He and Jiang Wanrong, whose eyes once again showed murderous intent, everyone else began to secretly analyze the accuracy of Chu Youning's big melon.
However, the eldest princess seemed to have always been a taboo for the royal family. The older generation of officials avoided mentioning her, and the younger generation were all confused.
"Master Hui'an vowed not to enter the imperial palace in her lifetime, and she chose today to come here. What did she mean by that?"
In the end, it was Chu Wenzong who spoke first.
But he didn't call her "Auntie", but "Master Hui'an".
Chu Zhaohua walked to the altar step by step, bowed to Wu Qingyi first, then raised his eyes to look at Chu Youning and continued:
"What do you mean? Of course, I want to see what kind of talent my little niece, the eldest princess who was exiled to the common people, has, that His Majesty has granted amnesty to the world."
As she spoke, she couldn't help but laugh out loud:
"They say nieces look like their aunts. My little niece looks exactly like me when I was little~
I just wonder if Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager have ever thought of Zhaohua, who was also highly praised in the past, when they praise her so much now? Will she be like me, who was highly praised when she was young and was married off to another country as a marriage partner after she reached the age of 15?"
Chu Zhaohua was clearly smiling, but every word he said was full of thorns.
Wu Qingyi's hands were trembling slightly. He took several deep breaths before speaking: "Zhaohua, if you have anything to say, wait until the conferment ceremony is over."
Looking at the vigilance in the eyes of Wu Qingyi, Chu Wenzon and Cui Zhaoan, Chu Zhaohua smiled once again, with red glowing at the corners of his eyes.
"Why are you all so alert? I'm here to congratulate my niece on her return to the palace to reunite with the Queen Mother and her daughter.
Or do you think... these sisters-in-law around me who only know how to eat vegetarian food and chant Buddhist scriptures can do anything to my little niece in public?"
Talking.
She clapped her hands.
soon.
More than twenty nuns came from the rear, carrying more than a dozen large boxes.
"I have also prepared some small gifts, my little niece, please don't despise your aunt."
Chu Zhaohua looked at Chu Youning with love in his eyes.
