The emperor and the empress were waiting in the Golden Palace, and Xiao Jinyan did not dare to do anything against the imperial orders.

Xiao Jinyan must have been delayed by something, which is why he was late.

Chang Liangdi comforted herself in this way.

At this time, the prince's bedroom

Eunuch De and Eunuch Li were both senior officials in the palace. As early as five o'clock in the morning, they urged the prince to get up early, but were stopped by Liu Xi.

"Your Highness has been handling cases all night long and has been so busy that he didn't even have time to drink water. He just took a short nap. Eunuchs, wait a minute."

"It's not something we can't wait for. Today is the big day for the Crown Princess's enthronement ceremony. It would be bad to miss the auspicious time."

At this time, Xiao Jinyan walked out and glanced at the group of people in the yard, almost all of whom were from the Ministry of Rites.

He was calm and composed, "I have nothing to do. You can go after I have packed everything."

Eunuch De said in a somewhat urgent voice: "Your Highness, let's help you bathe and change clothes first. It will be too late if we are late."

"No need." Xiao Jinyan said this and turned to walk in.

The people in the yard were stunned.

Eunuch De was stunned for a long time before he reacted, "What does your highness want to do?"

Eunuch Li was so anxious that he stepped forward and shouted, "Your Highness, today is a very important day. We can't be careless!"

"Your Highness, the Emperor, Empress, and all the civil and military officials are waiting. Your Highness, please think twice!"

Liu Xi said with a kind smile: "Your Highness is the Crown Prince, and you know what is important and what is not. Please be patient."

Eunuch Deli's face turned red with anxiety. "The situation is urgent, how can we just sit back and wait?"

Xiao Jinyan came out of the inner room in a black court uniform and glanced at Eunuch Li and the others, "Let's go."

After saying that, he strode away first.

Liu Xi followed closely behind with a whisk in his hand.

Eunuch De, Eunuch Li and others looked at each other and didn't react for a long time. "Why is your highness wearing court clothes?"

The emperor and empress also noticed something was wrong.

The emperor tilted his head and asked the queen in a low voice, "The auspicious time has arrived, why is there no movement at all?"

"Your Majesty, please wait a little longer." The Queen was also puzzled and looked outside the palace from time to time. It was impossible for the Prince to be perfunctory on such an important day.

Qingying walked over in anxious little steps, looking hurried, and whispered in the queen's ear, "Queen, the Crown Prince hasn't arrived yet, and Chang Liangdi is standing there waiting alone."

The queen frowned, "What's going on?"

"I don't know either. Someone has already gone to the prince's bedroom." Qingying said.

The queen thought for a moment, then turned to look at the emperor, "Your Majesty, the prince must have been delayed by something."

The emperor said unhappily, "On such an important day, why don't you take care of things in advance?"

The most embarrassed person was Chang Liangdi. She had been waiting there before dawn, and now the sun was rising.

It's a cloudless, sunny day.

Chang Liangdi felt cold all over. She thought Xiao Jinyan must have done this to embarrass her.

She folded her hands together and clasped them tightly in her palms, fearing that she would not be able to withstand the strange looks.

Until she saw Xiao Jinyan walking towards her from afar, her fingers loosened, and her heart relaxed as well.

She curled the corners of her lips slightly and said, "You're finally here. I knew you wouldn't dare not come on such an important day."

Someone with sharp eyes noticed that there was something wrong with Xiao Jinyan's attire.

"That's right. How can you not wear a dress on such an important day?"

When Xiao Jinyan came closer, Chang Liangdi realized that Xiao Jinyan was not wearing a dress, and her eyes were full of confusion.

She raised her delicate makeup and looked at Xiao Jinyan, her beautiful eyes filled with hidden grievance, "Your Highness, are you delayed by something?"

Xiao Jinyan looked at Chang Liangdi, who was dressed up, and said in a cold voice, "Something really delayed me, otherwise I wouldn't know that Chang Liangdi is not worthy of the position of Crown Princess."

Chang Liangdi looked unhappy. She tried her best to control her manners and asked, "Your Highness, what do you mean?"

"If you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself."

After Xiao Jinyan said these cold words, he strode towards the Golden Palace.

Chang Liangdi was stunned on the spot.

The auspicious time had passed, and the emperor and empress were becoming impatient.

Eunuch Li came in trotting and reported, "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince has arrived."

The emperor said angrily, "How dare he come here? On such an important day, he, the crown prince, can still cause trouble. In my opinion, he is not worthy of being the crown prince."

At this time, Xiao Jinyan walked in and stepped forward to salute: "Your son pays respects to the father, the emperor, and the mother, the empress."

The emperor was already furious, and he became even angrier when he saw the prince wearing court robes. "Prince, do you know what day it is today? Why are you still wearing court robes? And you're entering the palace alone?"

Xiao Jinyan paused as he spoke, "Father, Concubine Chang has bad behavior and is very jealous. She colluded with the imperial physician to frame Concubine Xu and Concubine Shen. She is not worthy of being the Crown Princess."

The emperor and the empress were both stunned.

The emperor said in a deep voice: "Prince, everything requires evidence, and you cannot speak nonsense."

Xiao Jinyan lowered his eyebrows and nodded: "I stayed up all night last night to investigate this matter. I have all the evidence and witnesses, and I have not wrongly accused Chang Liangdi."

The emperor and the empress looked at each other. This was a private matter in the imperial palace. After exchanging glances, the emperor ordered: "The ceremony for the crown princess will be postponed and an auspicious day will be chosen."

After Eunuch Li read out the emperor's intention, all the civil and military officials were in an uproar, and no one knew what was going on.

When Chang Liangdi heard the news, her legs went weak and she would have fallen to the ground if the two maids on her left and right had not supported her.

She looked at the Golden Palace not far away in disbelief. It was clearly a done deal, so why should it be postponed?

Why? Just when Chang Liang Di was puzzled, Qing Ying came over and said, "Chang Liang Di, please follow me to Feng Yi Palace."

Chang Liang Di saw Madam Qingying. She had always been close to Madam Qingying since she was a child. When she met her, she couldn't control her emotions. "Madam Qingying, isn't today the auspicious day chosen by Lord Lu? Why postpone it?"

Qingying sighed helplessly, as if she was feeling regretful: "Chang Liang Di, you will know when you get to Fengyi Palace."

Chang Liangdi felt weak, but thinking that she had the support of the Queen and her mother's family, she thought that there shouldn't be any major problems.

Chang Liangdi comforted herself in this way.

Fengyi Palace

The emperor sat on the throne and the queen sat on the chair on the right.

Xiao Jinyan stood tall and slender in the center of the hall.

Chang Liangdi was still wearing a formal dress, and because it was heavy, she was supported by two maids as she walked in.

As soon as she stepped in, Chang Liangdi found that the atmosphere in the palace was a little strange. She walked in carefully and bowed: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you, Your Majesty, and to you, Your Majesty."

The emperor looked at Chang Liang Di, who was wearing a formal dress and was the most eye-catching person in the palace. He said in a deep voice, "Chang Liang Di, the prince said that you are scheming and jealous, and you colluded with the imperial physician to frame Concubine Xu and Shen Liang Di for a fake pregnancy. Is this true?"

Good evening, my darlings!
