Chapter 2007: Wedding (Part 4)
The old ancestor still looks the same, as if time has left no trace on her.
Doctor Hua still looked the same, so wretched that it made people's mouths twitch.
The ancestor was wearing a cotton dress, which could be said to be very simple.
However, no one ignores the intangible bearing and majesty emanating from our ancestors just because of their simple clothing.
With just one glance, Empress Mingli guessed what Emperor Zhengde was thinking.
If someone can still maintain such youthful beauty at such an age, then what else could he be but a god?
God!
She also wants to chase after the gods!
Queen Mingli was excited!
Queen Mingli looked at the ancestor's back with a burning gaze.
The young man standing behind the old ancestor had a slender figure, sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes.
Even wearing a simple black dress, it still couldn't hide his ethereal beauty and handsome face.
He was like a banished immortal walking out of a painting, his every move exuding an air of being untainted by the world.
"Who is that?"
Queen Mingli nudged Shi Liu with her elbow and nodded in Yun Mo's direction with her chin.
However, before Shi Liu could answer, he continued, "This beauty should only exist in heaven. How many times can we see it in the world? Open your eyes... Open your eyes..."
Queen Mingli's face was filled with excitement and her eyes were burning.
Pomegranate:"……"
Shi Liu reached out and turned Queen Mingli's head over.
"Don't set your sights on him!" Shi Liu said, "His name is Yun Mo, he's the deputy palace master of the Yun Palace, and he's the man our ancestors wanted Sister Fu Ya to marry."
"Oh, no, it's about marrying him. At the beginning, the ancestor wanted Sister Fu Ya to marry him as her legal husband, but unfortunately Sister Fu Ya disagreed, so the plan was abandoned in the end."
After Shi Liu finished speaking, he added another sentence.
"I feel that no one other than Sister Fuya is worthy of such a detached male immortal."
Queen Mingli gave Shi Liu a strange look and said, "What are you thinking? I'm just admiring her! Admiring her beauty!"
After Queen Mingli finished speaking, she couldn't help but turn her head to look at Yun Mo again, then she shook her head with some regret.
"He only has Sister Fuya in his heart. As the dignified Queen of Western Qin, would I want a man who has someone else in his heart?"
Wasn’t her mother’s tragedy enough of a lesson for her to learn?
Pomegranate:"……"
Pomegranates are also strange.
"How do you know he likes Sister Fuya?"
Shi Liu also looked at Yun Mo.
How come she didn't see it?
Queen Mingli turned her head and gave Shi Liu a hopeless look.
"Haven't you noticed that, that kind of…" Queen Mingli pondered for a moment, "the hostility between the women in the backyard, the kind of mutual dislike and wariness between them?"
Pomegranate:"……"
Pomegranate is ashamed.
She really didn't notice.
"It seems that I will have to send you a few men someday so that you can personally experience the jealousy between men and the atmosphere of men vying for favor in the backyard." Queen Mingli said.
Pomegranate:"……"
No need to do that!
Shi Liu looked towards Xuanyuan Jin.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still has that expressionless look... No!
It seems, it may, it seems...
There is indeed a little difference.
Just like the Duke back then, every time he saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Sister Fuya together, he would appear cheerful on the surface, but in reality, he was actually on guard...
"So, Your Highness the Crown Prince knows that Yun Mo likes Sister Fu Ya?" Shi Liu asked in an affirmative tone.
"That's for sure!" Queen Mingli said decisively, "Who is Xuanyuan Jin? He's incredibly cunning! He must have noticed it a long time ago!"
Queen Mingli said this with a gloating expression on her face.
He added, "That's better. It makes him feel a sense of crisis at all times, so he won't dare to be unfaithful."
After hearing what Queen Mingli said, Shi Liu showed an expression of approval.
"That's true. For other men, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince might not even take them seriously. But Yun Mo is no less handsome or prestigious than him, and he also has the support of our ancestors..."
When Shi Liu said this, he suddenly stopped.
"Perhaps, the ancestor also saw this and deliberately let Yun Mo create a sense of crisis for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."
Pomegranate had a thoughtful expression.
This time, Queen Mingli gave Shi Liu a teachable look.
"That's right! There is still hope!" said Queen Mingli.
After saying that, he looked at the old ancestor again and continued, "Although I have never dealt with the old ancestor, but as a god-like figure like the old ancestor, he must have seen through Xuanyuan Jin's little thoughts a long time ago."
On this side, Empress Mingli and Shiliu were chirping crickets in low voices, and on the other side, Emperor Zhengde saw that his ancestor was in great joy and wanted to worship him immediately.
"Grandfather, I've finally welcomed you back." Emperor Zhengde said warmly, "Please come in."
The old ancestor nodded slightly and walked naturally in front.
Queen Mingli hurried forward to make her presence felt.
"Junior Mingli meets the ancestor."
Empress Mingli was dressed in imperial robes, but she respectfully performed the etiquette of a junior to her ancestors.
The old ancestor naturally heard Tang Bao talk about Queen Mingli, and a kind expression appeared on his face.
Moreover, he turned around and took a box from Yun Mo's hand.
"It's not a valuable thing, I'll give it to you to play with."
The old ancestor said this and handed the box to Queen Mingli.
Queen Mingli was flattered.
The ancestor really treated her as a junior.
Look, I even prepared a gift for her.
Emperor Zhengde was jealous.
He is also a junior, why didn’t the ancestors give him a gift?
Tang Bao did not attend the palace banquet and did not know what happened there. In short, after Shi Liu and Ming Li came back, Queen Ming Li was full of admiration for the ancestor and repeatedly praised the ancestor for his foresight and said that he was worthy of being a god who descended from heaven.
Moreover, he kept giggling, saying that Xuanyuan Jin might not be able to sleep.
Shi Liu and Ming Li, one was the high priest of Southern Xinjiang and the other was the empress of Western Qin, but they did not live in the official inn prepared by the court, but lived directly in the Su family.
In their words, they are Tang Bao's family members, so naturally they have to live in Tang Bao's family home.
Not only that, the two of them also lived with Tang Bao on the pretext that she needed a sister to accompany her before she got married.
Since two important figures, Mingli and Shiliu, were living in the Duke's Mansion, it was naturally heavily guarded.
Not only were there guards from the Duke's Mansion patrolling, but there were also guards from the Princess's Mansion dispatched by Tang Bao, as well as those brought by Shi Liu and Ming Li.
The guards, both visible and covert, surrounded Tang Bao's yard like an iron barrel.
So much so that when a familiar "knock knock" sound came from outside Tangbao's window, accompanied by a low voice of "Go to bed early", Queen Mingli and Shi Liu were both shocked.
"How did he get into the yard? Does it mean that our Xi Qin secret guards are just decorations?" Queen Mingli said with a complicated expression.
A living person ran out of the window, and no one outside noticed him.
Queen Mingli naturally heard that the person outside the window was Xuanyuan Jin.
However, as a prince, is it polite for you to come and knock on a girl's window in the middle of the night?
This is when they are here. If they are not here, would they just go into the house directly?
Well, it will definitely come in, and I don’t know how many times.
After being shocked, Shi Liu showed an expression that showed that it was what he deserved.
"With His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's skills, it would be strange if the guards outside could discover him." Shi Liu said.
Queen Mingli grabbed Tang Bao's hand and asked seriously, "Sister Fuya, do you still have that ginseng fruit? Can I have some too? I don't ask for much, just that after eating it, I can have 100% of your prince's kung fu skills."
Tang Bao: “…”
Pomegranate: "I just need one."
