Chapter 572 The Day of Enthronement 3
Wu Wan and Gao Yurong looked at each other.
Of course they knew that Si Nanyan's family would go to the palace to watch the ceremony of conferring the title of Imperial Concubine today, but they never imagined that her sister would come to ask to see them.
Wu Wan sneered, "What is that bitch's sister doing here to see us?"
“…”
"Could it be that you are here to show off your power?"
Gao Yurong thought for a moment and said, "My Lady, I'm afraid it's not that simple."
"oh?"
"I heard that Si Nanyan is a concubine's daughter and her relationship with her family is not very good."
“…”
"Her sister came to the palace today, but instead of going to see her, she came to ask to see the Empress. Maybe she has something else to report?"
“…”
"It's still early anyway, so it wouldn't hurt to see her."
Wu Wan thought about it and said, "Okay, let her in."
After saying that, she sat on it herself, and Gao Yurong sat below her.
After a while, Qiao Yun led Si Mulan in. She had also been running here secretly, and was a little scared. When she saw Wu Wan sitting above, she knelt down hurriedly.
"This humble lady pays homage to Her Majesty Consort Kang."
"Get up."
"Thank you, Madam."
Si Mulan stood up and Wu Wan looked at her coldly.
"You are Si Nanyan's sister?"
"Yes."
"Why are you here to see me? Your sister is being canonized today. Shouldn't you go see her and congratulate her?"
“…”
Simulan took two deep breaths, then mustered her courage and looked up and said, "I'm afraid Consort Kang doesn't want my sister to be canonized, right?"
Wu Wan raised her eyebrows slightly.
She sneered, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
“…”
"Sinanyan's canonization was ordered by the emperor. After the canonization, she became a member of the harem."
“…”
"What is there that I'm unwilling to do?"
Simulan looked at her for a while, then said with some regret: "I originally thought that Concubine Kang did not want my sister to be canonized, so she sent something specially."
“…”
"But now it seems that I was wrong."
“…”
"In that case, I apologize for my offense. Farewell."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out.
At this time, Gao Yurong immediately said: "Stop."
Simulan stopped hurriedly.
Gao Yurong looked at her for a few seconds, then said, "What did you bring?"
Simulan turned around and walked back, saying anxiously, "What I brought is something that can prevent the canonization."
"Prevent the canonization?"
Wu Wan sneered when she heard this: "Do you know that today's enthronement ceremony was ordered by the emperor?"
“…”
"You want to stop it, do you dare to go against the emperor?"
“…”
"Who in this world dares to go against the emperor?"
Simulan said boldly: "In this world, no one dares to go against the emperor, but some people's emperors, even the emperors, have to listen to them."
Wu Wan frowned: "What did you say?"
Si Mulan took a few cautious steps forward, got in front of her, and said a few words.
Only Wu Wan and Gao Yurong could hear the sound, and both of their eyes lit up.
Wu Wan immediately asked, "Are you telling the truth?"
Simulan said: "Even if I have the courage of heaven, I dare not deceive the queen."
"Then, do you have any evidence?"
"Of course, it's on my body."
Wu Wan immediately became happy. Gao Yurong, on the other hand, looked at Si Mulan and said, "Why did you come to us and tell us about this? What is your purpose?"
Simulan said, "To be honest with you two ladies, I am the legitimate daughter of my family, while Si Nanyan is just a concubine's daughter, and a bastard. How could she be canonized?"
“…”
"I just want to step on her."
“…”
"I want to enter the palace."
“…”
"But please rest assured, no matter what happens in the future, I will follow your Majesty's lead."
“…”
Wu Wan didn't speak immediately, but looked at her again and then looked at Gao Yurong.
Then, with a hint of coldness, he smiled and said, "Okay."
After saying that, he immediately looked up and said, "Little chess piece."
Little Chess Piece immediately walked in: "What are your instructions, Madam?"
"Have all the officials entered the palace to prepare for the congratulations?"
"Yes. The Duke and the Second Young Master have already arrived at the court room and are waiting with the other ministers."
Wu Wan said, "Send a message to him."
“…”
"He knows how to do it himself."

At this moment, Nan Yan returned to the palace and changed into another set of clothes.
Because next, he had to go to Yonghe Palace to receive instructions from the Queen, and then he would be officially canonized.
She was so tired that she was sweating profusely.
But he still asked, "My family, have they entered the palace? Has my grandmother come?"
After hearing the eunuch's report, Eunuch Yu hurriedly said with a smile, "Don't worry, Lady. Your family has already entered the palace and is waiting outside for the enthronement ceremony to begin. The old lady is here too."
Nan Yan said softly, "The weather is a bit hot. Please ask the master to ask everyone to take good care of her."
“…”
"Don't let her get tired."
"Don't worry, Madam Si."
After Nan Yan finished speaking, she turned around happily and looked at herself in the mirror.
The attire for offering sacrifices and kowtow at the great altar is different from that for receiving instructions at the Queen's Palace. It cannot be too grand, nor too casual, nor can it overshadow the Queen.
So, I changed into a simpler long dress.
However, it is still very solemn, and the hair accessories naturally need to be re-combed.
Aunt Qiuhua, who was combing her hair, saw Nanyan lowering her head and counting seriously with her fingers. She smiled and said, "Madam, are you still remembering something?"
Nan Yan lowered her head and said softly, "I'm remembering what they taught me before, what I should do in the Canonization Hall today."
“…”
"A lot of things."
“…”
"I'm afraid I'm too stupid and will forget it by then."
“…”
"That would be troublesome."
Everyone around couldn't help laughing.
Aunt Qiuhua smiled and picked up a hairpin to put it in her bun.
Nan Yan was still worried, counting on her fingers as she muttered, "Inside the palace gate, I will greet you... kneel down... receive the imperial decree, receive the treasure..."
As I was reading it, I suddenly felt something was wrong.
Why is everything quiet around here?
She subconsciously looked up and saw her own reflection in the bronze mirror, as well as Zhu Feng standing behind her, carefully inserting a hairpin into her bun.
"emperor……?"
Nan Yan suddenly opened her eyes wide.
Zhu Feng put the hairpin on her and then held her shoulders while she looked at her bright and beautiful face in the bronze mirror.
Smiling, he said, "Yeah, it looks good."
Nan Yan's eyes curved with joy.
She whispered, "Why is the emperor here?"
Zhu Feng smiled and said softly, "I want to see you sooner."
