Chapter 357: Make the Dragon and Phoenix Robes as Soon as Possible
At the city gate.
The royal guards guarding the city gate did not show much emotion when they received the news from the palace.
The captain of the Imperial Guards looked at the Yu Family Army standing not far away and shouted to the Imperial Guards below: "Open the city gate!"
As the saying goes, he who knows the times is a hero.
The emperor has been imprisoned in the cold palace, so it is a foregone conclusion that the gentleman will inherit the throne.
They should be more sensible!
Several royal guards inside the city gate received the order and hurriedly lifted the bolt.
The captain of the Imperial Guards walked out of the city gate and bowed to the Yu Family Army, saying, "Everyone, please enter the city!"
"Thank you, brother. We cannot leave without orders." A member of the Yu family army said with a bow.
Upon hearing this, the captain of the Royal Guards scratched his head and turned back to the city gate.
It is indeed not an ordinary army.
The Duke's Mansion.
After Ning Jinghuai strolled around the street, he returned to the Duke's Mansion at a pace of 2.58 million.
Oh no! I wanted to help Xiao Chengjin secretly, but who would have thought that he would easily succeed in taking the position.
It has to be said that the late emperor loved him the most.
Ning Jinghuai entered the front hall and said with joy: "Dad, Mom, Xiao, no, it's the emperor who successfully took over the palace."
Haha, the matter of getting married is on the agenda.
The Duke and his wife looked at their son's happy expression and shook their heads helplessly.
The Duke's wife put down the teacup in her hand and said slowly, "The Emperor has just taken over the government, so he must be very busy."
"By the way, I heard that the Emperor will hold his coronation and empress coronation ceremonies in two months, so you shouldn't go and cause any trouble."
Duke Ningguo laughed heartily and said cheerfully, "I'm taking advantage of this time to prepare for your wedding..."
Ning Jinghuai's smile froze at the corner of his lips when he heard this.
The coronation ceremony, the empress's ceremony...
"Okay, then use this time to prepare for our son's wedding."
The Duke and his wife looked at each other and nodded with satisfaction.
......
Today is a long day for people in the entire capital.
Some people were happy while others were worried about Xiao Chengjin's successful takeover of imperial power.
What makes some people happy is that Xiao Chengjin is young and promising, and currently only has Jiang Ruo by his side.
When Xiao Chengjin takes in concubines, their daughter might have the opportunity to enter the palace as a concubine...
Those who are worried are those who are related to Xiao Junze and Xiao Mocheng.
Especially the Tang Mansion. Ever since the Imperial Guards guarding the Tang Mansion were withdrawn by Xiao Mocheng on the pretext of protecting the capital, the people in the Tang Mansion have regained their personal freedom.
After Tang Zhongxu received the secret letter from Tang Shihuan, the first thing he saw was the eight words "The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind."
He instantly understood the meaning of this sentence...
However, what happened in the palace today is really hard to accept.
The Tang Mansion was suddenly plunged into a cloud of gloom.
At this moment, Tang Zhongxu leaned on his cane and cursed, "How could Xiao Chengjin seize power so easily?"
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is such a waste..."
Madam Tang covered Tang Zhongxu's mouth with her hand and cried, "Master, the Emperor and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have lost their power."
"While you don't have a job right now, let's leave the capital as soon as possible!"
Tang Zhongxu frowned, feeling extremely anxious.
He pushed Madam Tang away and said unhappily, "What do you, a woman, know?"
"It is because I don't have a position that we are the safest."
"Humph! I won't accept fleeing the capital in such a disgraceful manner."
A calculating look flashed in Tang Zhongxu's eyes.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must be in great need of help right now. Can I give it a try?...
After hearing what Tang Zhongxu said, Mrs. Tang immediately understood what he was thinking.
She patted Tang Zhongxu's chest and said in panic, "Master, don't let your wishful thinking go on."
"If you do this, you will kill your whole family..."
Upon hearing this, Tang Zhongxu became furious.
He raised his hand and slapped Madam Tang, "Shut up right there."
"Our Huan'er and granddaughter are still imprisoned in the Eastern Palace. How could you be so cruel as to abandon them?"
Mrs. Tang covered her cheeks and squatted on the ground, sobbing.
In the beginning, Huan'er shouldn't have been allowed to marry His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...
Night falls.
From a courtyard somewhere in the cold palace, low sobbing sounds could be heard from time to time.
The Queen and the Queen Mother used to live in luxurious palaces and lead a life of luxury. They were completely devastated when they were suddenly sent to the cold palace.
The Queen Mother and the Empress sat in the courtyard of the cold palace, crying and cursing for an entire afternoon.
Look, the extremely tired mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, under the care of their personal maid, each drank a bowl of porridge and curled up on the bed to sleep.
After the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fell asleep, several palace maids around them looked at each other and took the opportunity to take away all their jewelry and hid it...
The other concubines have let it go.
After accepting the reality, they rolled up their sleeves and became self-reliant.
Weaving Pavilion.
At this moment, the lights in the weaving pavilion were brightly on, and the two head maids were sitting at the table, discussing matters such as the production of dragon robes and phoenix robes.
"Boss Gu, time is running out. We need to arrange for the embroiderers to finish the dragon and phoenix robes as soon as possible."
"By the way, there are also wedding dresses..." Manager Liu slapped his forehead when he said this.
The coronation ceremony and the empress-crowned ceremony were held together.
Manager Gu nodded and said seriously, "Manager Liu, please arrange for the embroiderers to prepare the fabrics first. Tomorrow, I will personally go and take the measurements for the Emperor and Empress."
"Remember, don't make any mistakes."
Manager Liu stood up and said with a smile, "Manager Gu, please have a rest early. Leave the rest to me."
Na An, the emperor is very fierce, who dares to get close to him?
The Queen and the others haven't seen it yet...
By the way, as for the phoenix robe, can you refer to that little phoenix?
A side hall of Xihe Palace.
Jiang Ruo stretched and yawned, "We've been busy all day, let's rest early."
Haha! Starting tomorrow, you will have to start working seriously.
"Okay." Xiao Chengjin took off his clothes and put them on the hanger.
When he turned around and returned to the bed, Xiao Chengjin saw Jiang Ruo sitting on the inside of the bed with a smile on her face.
He raised an eyebrow and asked, "So happy?"
Jiang Ruo rubbed her cheeks and said, "Hey, today is a happy day, of course I'm happy."
"Come and lie down to sleep." Jiang Ruo patted the bed. "Early to bed and early to rise makes you healthy."
Xiao Chengjin lay down on the bed and said aggrievedly, "I don't want to get up early. I want to sleep until I wake up naturally."
Jiang Ruo chuckled, "Go to bed early and you'll wake up naturally."
"In order to be a good emperor, you must be strict with yourself, understand?"
Xiao Chengjin leaned closer to Jiang Ruo and kissed her forehead. "With Ruo Ruo by my side, I will be a good emperor."
Jiang Ruo: "......"
What you mean is: Without me by your side, you will become a tyrant.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ruo raised her hand and pinched Xiao Chengjin's cheek, saying fiercely: "I will always be with you."
"Thank you, Ruoruo." Xiao Chengjin happily held Jiang Ruoruo in his arms and closed his eyes.
Outside Xihe Palace.
An Yi slowly walked to Yu Beichen, bowed and said, "Brother Yu, from now on, I will leave it to you."
Yu Beichen was stunned when he heard this.
Then, he understood what An Yi meant.
He cupped his hands and said seriously, "Brother An Yi, don't worry. My brothers and I will protect our two masters."
"Okay, let's protect the two masters together." An Yi said, curling the corners of his lips.
Midnight.
"Mother, Concubine!" Xiao Chengjin shouted, waking up from his sleep.
Jiang Ruo heard the shouting in her ear and immediately opened her eyes.
She sat up and asked in a low voice: "Xiao Chengjin, are you having a nightmare?"
Xiao Chengjin sat up and calmed down for a while, then said, "Ruoruo, I'm fine. I just dreamed about my mother." His voice trembled slightly.
The candlelight flickered, and Jiang Ruo noticed beads of sweat on Xiao Chengjin's forehead.
With a distressed look on her face, she wiped the sweat off Xiao Chengjin's forehead with her sleeve and whispered comfortingly, "Don't be afraid, our mother is here to see you."
Xiao Chengjin hugged Jiang Ruo and said in a hoarse voice, "Ruoruo, thank you."
Thank you for being by my side...
Jiang Ruo gently stroked his back and whispered, "Okay, you have to get up early tomorrow morning, go back to sleep."
Xiao Chengjin nodded, and the two lay down and fell asleep in each other's arms.
Jiang Ruo secretly thought: This is the first time I see him so vulnerable.
When Steward Lin arrives, I'll secretly ask about the cause of my mother's death...
