Chapter 573 The Day of Enthronement 4
His voice was still the same as always, deep and magnetic, especially when he whispered in her ear, it had an indescribable sexiness to it.
Nan Yan's face suddenly turned red.
She lowered her head, thought for a moment, then raised it again and looked at Zhu Feng in the mirror: "Your Majesty."
"Um?"
"We will be very happy, right?"
"certainly."
Zhu Feng said this, leaning down and gently hugging her from behind.
Nan Yan also stretched out her hands, hugged his arms tightly, and leaned her head in his arms.
The scene in the mirror is as beautiful as a painting and a dream.
In the end, it was Eunuch Yu who came and urged them to "wake up" from such a beautiful dream. The time had come and Nan Yan should go to Yonghe Palace.
When Nan Yan heard this, she stood up quickly.
Zhu Feng should also go to the main hall to make preparations and check the memorial from the Ministry of Rites.
The two of them walked out of the Ye Ting together, and Zhu Feng said again: "Aren't you going to look back?"
Nan Yan looked at him in confusion.
Zhu Feng smiled and said, "You will be going to Yikun Palace in a while."
“…”
Nan Yan finally came to her senses. Indeed, after going to Yonghe Palace and listening to the Queen Mother's instructions, she should go to Yiku Palace, change into the formal dress of a noble concubine, and then go to receive the title.
And Ye Ting...she will never come back.
This is no longer her home.
Nan Yan turned around, took a deep look, and then followed Zhu Feng away.
After walking for a while, it was time for them to go their separate ways.
However, his steps stopped involuntarily, as if he was reluctant to part.
Zhu Feng looked down at her, and after being urged twice by the people behind him, he pinched her face and said, "Be good today and don't make any mistakes, okay?"
Nan Yan rolled her eyes at him.
"What is the emperor talking about? How could I go wrong?"
"You, always getting into trouble."
“…”
"I'm afraid that you'll cause me trouble again today."
Nan Yan thought about it and agreed.
I am indeed a troublemaker. Whether I went to Nanning before or went to Beijing a while ago, I always stir up three layers of waves even when there is no wind.
So he looked at him with wide eyes: "What if I really cause trouble for the emperor?"
Zhu Feng looked at her again and sighed: "What else can we do?"
“…”
"Of course it's me, I'm here to help you solve your problem."
“…”
"Who made me run into you?"
Nan Yan laughed immediately.
So the two people went their separate ways.
Nan Yan had a smile on her face all the way, which was despised by Ran Xiaoyu as "corny", until she arrived at Yonghe Palace, she straightened her expression slightly.
Then, walked in.
The Yonghe Palace was already full of people.
Xu Miaoyin was wearing the queen's dress and sitting at the top. The other concubines in the harem were sitting on both sides. As soon as they saw her come in, they all stood up.
Although she has not been officially canonized yet, she is now considered to have the status of a noble concubine.
Nan Yan stepped forward and respectfully performed the highest court ceremony before the Queen: "Greetings, Her Majesty."
"Get up."
As soon as Xu Miaoyin raised her hand, Ran Xiaoyu hurriedly helped Nan Yan to stand up.
She stood in the middle of the room and carefully looked up at Xu Miaoyin, who also looked her up and down.
In the past, as a female official of Shangbao, her clothes were naturally very simple and she didn't wear any makeup. But today, with such exquisite dress, she looks bright and charming.
Xu Miaoyin smiled and said, "Nan Yan, you are graceful and elegant, with a natural temperament. You are worthy of the title of 'Royal Concubine'."
Nan Yan hurriedly said, "How dare the light of rotten grass compete with the sun and the moon?"
“…”
"The Empress is the true mother of the country."
Xu Miaoyin said, "As the mother of the country and in charge of the six palaces, it is inevitable that I may have some shortcomings."
“…”
"I've long hoped that someone could help me."
“…”
"You are virtuous, intelligent, and knowledgeable, and I have always valued you."
“…”
"Today, you are canonized as a noble concubine, with the power to assist in the management of the six palaces. From now on, the sisters in the harem will all be your family. You must respect your superiors and love your subordinates, be kind to your neighbors and be self-disciplined. You must also serve the emperor wholeheartedly and diligently, expand the royal family, and continue the bloodline..."
Nan Yan stood in the middle of the room, listening attentively to her teachings.
It was also at this moment that she understood that the word "imperial concubine" represented more than just wealth and glory, more than just the upcoming enjoyment.
More importantly, it is a responsibility.
Since she has achieved a position second only to the emperor in the harem, she also has a heavy responsibility.
This was something she had figured out a long time ago.
If she wanted to stand by Zhu Feng's side, she naturally had to have the knowledge and wisdom to match his.
Otherwise, she is just a vine climbing on a big tree, without her own opinions and soul.
After Xu Miaoyin finished her last sentence, he asked her, "Do you understand?"
Nan Yan said respectfully, "I understand."
Xu Miaoyin nodded slightly and smiled.
At this moment, she raised her head, glanced around again, frowned slightly and asked, "Why, Concubine Kang and Concubine An haven't arrived yet?"
Hearing the sound, Nan Yan also looked around.
Sure enough, neither Concubine Kang Wu Wan nor Concubine An Gao Yurong were present.
Nan Yan couldn't help but frown.
Of course she knew that these two people disliked and even resented her, but no matter what, today was the enthronement ceremony, and all officials and concubines had to be present to celebrate.
Don't they even want to save face?
Nan Yan had originally prepared herself to face their difficulties and even persecution after the enthronement, but she did not expect that the two of them would be so ruthless.
At this moment, a palace maid came forward and said, "Reporting to the Queen, this servant has just gone to Chonghua Palace to inquire again."
"Where are Concubine Kang and Concubine An?"
"Empress Kang said she was not feeling well and could not come to Yonghe Palace."
“…”
"They went directly to the main hall."
Xu Miaoyin's brows furrowed even tighter.
You were not feeling well, but you ran straight to the main hall?
Her "discomfort" was quite special.
When she looked up, a hint of hesitation appeared on Nan Yan's face. Especially when she thought of what Zhu Feng had just said, Nan Yan's originally happy mood became a little heavy.
Today is the day of my canonization.
There must not be any accidents.
Xu Miaoyin thought for a moment, then said, "Well, it's almost time now anyway, and everyone should go to the main hall. Nan Yan——"
Nan Yan raised her head hurriedly: "My Lady."
"Go back to Yikun Palace and change your clothes now. The enthronement ceremony will be held soon."
"yes."
After everyone paid their respects, Nan Yan left Yonghe Palace and, led by Eunuch Yu, walked towards Yiku Palace.
While walking on the road, Nan Yan thought for a moment and asked, "Eunuch Yu, is there anything unusual happening at Chonghua Palace today?"
