On the day of Ye Qingwan's wedding, gongs and drums were blaring, red flags were flying, and the entire capital was filled with red lanterns. Even the road from Liu's residence to the Xiang's residence was covered with red carpets, which was even more grand and lively than the last time he married his concubine.

Nangong Muyun secretly left the palace, wearing ordinary clothes, hiding in the crowd, looking at Liu Sheng sitting on the horse, with a smile on his face.

Riding on horseback behind Liu Sheng was his elder brother Nangong Fusang. His elder brother did not come on his wedding day, but this time he specially came back from the south to accompany Liu Sheng to pick up the bride.

Liu Sheng even prayed to heaven and earth in the prime minister's residence before carrying Ye Qingwan out. He carried her personally.

When the wind blew up Ye Qingwan's red veil, Nangong Muyun could clearly see her smile, and she also secretly kissed Liu Sheng.

There were many women waiting to get married in the crowd, and they were all extremely envious at this moment.

"This Miss Ye is really lucky. The last time she married the Emperor, who was still the Ninth Prince, she became a concubine, and the ceremony was not as grand as this."

"How can it be the same? Last time she was a concubine, to put it bluntly, but now she is married into the Taifu Mansion, she is the principal wife."

In ancient times, there was a distinction between the legitimate and illegitimate children in terms of status. Even if she was a concubine in the Ninth Prince's Mansion, no matter how noble she was, she was still a concubine, a lowly person.

Not only will they be lowly, but their future children will also be inferior to others. It is easier for men. They just live in separate houses, but it is miserable for women. Which rich family will marry a concubine's daughter as the principal wife?

I'm afraid that in the future I will be reduced to being someone else's concubine.

When the other woman heard this, she said, "That's right. If it were me, I would also rather marry into the Taifu Mansion and become his legal wife."

Nangong Muyun listened to their conversation and suddenly laughed.

If he hadn't become emperor, then Ye Qingwan would have been a concubine if she married him, a concubine of the Ninth Prince's Mansion, and would have been looked down upon by the other wives.

Watching Ye Qingwan climb onto the flower stand, Nangong Muyun prepared to leave the crowd. When he looked up, he met Liu Sheng's eyes in the distance.

Liu Sheng bowed to him from a distance across the crowd. Nangong Muyun smiled, opened his mouth, silently said congratulations, then turned and left.

"What are you looking at?" King Xiang rode closer on his horse and looked into the crowd following his gaze.

There was nothing but a sea of ​​black heads.

"Your brother is here?" Liu Sheng said.

King Xiang didn't react for a moment: "Which brother?"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he understood.

He immediately reined in his horse, his eyes instantly becoming serious: "Where is it? Don't panic, I brought 10,000 elite soldiers with me."

Liu Sheng suddenly laughed: "He just said congratulations to me."

The King's tense nerves relaxed instantly: "You should have said it earlier."

I thought Lao Jiu was going to steal the bride.

But if you think about it carefully, Lao Jiu is a proud and conceited person, who also cares about his reputation. He also has a heart that considers the overall situation. He doesn't even have the courage to do something as shameful as robbing the bride, which would have such a bad impact.

After saying that, the two of them happily returned to Liu Mansion.

"Your Highness, I heard that civil officials and military officers are very good at drinking. I'll trouble Your Highness to help me drink for a while."

King Xiang rolled his eyes at him with disdain and said, "I was the one who rushed through the gate because I was afraid that Old Nine would snatch the bride away. I also brought the elite troops with me. Now you even have to let me drink for you. Are you the groom now or am I the groom?"

"Your Highness has both civil and military skills, and those who are capable should do more work."

King Xiang snorted and suddenly teased him, "How about this, I'll prepare for your wedding night?"

Liu Sheng smiled and said, "Your Highness has lived alone for many years, I'm afraid he is not very good at it, so I won't force you."

King Xiang raised his leg and kicked him: "Yes, yes, yes, I can't do it, but you can, you learned it by yourself."

Liu Sheng smiled happily and didn't bother with him at all.

The excitement belonged to them, and Nangong Muyun had nothing, so he walked alone on the street.

He was obviously only in his twenties, but he looked like an old woman in her fifties, with no life in his body.

Just when he was feeling miserable, a scream suddenly came from above his head.

Before he could react, something hit him. He instinctively reached out his hand and caught it.

When he lowered his head, he saw a pair of pure eyes staring at him intently.

There is no fear, no timidity, only endless desire to explore.

Section 219

The two stared at each other for a long time, until a maid ran out of the mansion: "Miss, are you okay?"

As soon as she heard someone calling her, she smiled brightly. She jumped out of Nangong Muyun's arms in an instant, rushed over and pulled the maid: "Hurry up, hurry up, or we'll be discovered by Dad."

After saying that, she pulled the maid and ran away. After running a few steps, she looked back at Nangong Muyun with an excited smile on her face and shouted, "Thank you, I will repay you when I have the chance in the future."

The maid also looked back at Nangong Muyun and said, "Miss, if you want to repay me, at least ask me my name. Otherwise, how can you repay me?"

She poked the maid's head and said, "Are you stupid? Can't you hear the polite words? Anyway, we won't see each other again, so you can say anything."

Nangong Muyun heard it and burst out laughing.

I looked up at the plaque hanging on the gate: Lin Mansion.

Minister of Personnel, Lord Lin.

Nangong Muyun felt much more relaxed. Being an emperor was too tiring and life was too boring. Having a funny and interesting person would make life more fun.

But he did not go in, but went straight back to the palace. Without any more time to mourn, he devoted himself to government affairs again.

Liu Sheng took a leave of absence, and no one else could take over his work. Nangong Muyun found ten people and divided the work among them one by one, and only then was he able to cope with the situation.

So what exactly is going on with Liu Sheng? How can he be so good at handling state affairs while secretly seducing Ye Qingwan?

I just can't figure it out.

He is a master of time management.

In fact, he was quite grateful to Liu Sheng. Before taking leave, he put Shui Sheng under house arrest in the palace, and stabilized the grassland and Danchi, thus solving the three most unstable factors for Dayu.

His job as an emperor was much more satisfying than that of his father.

"Brother Emperor, Liu Sheng and Ye Qingwan left the city today." The Tenth Master reported to him.

Nangong Muyun put down the cinnabar pen: "Is everything okay?"

"Don't worry, my brother. They are fine."

"That's fine. Thank you for your hard work, Tenth Brother."

"Royal brother, why do you protect them secretly?" The Tenth Master couldn't understand. If he was not mistaken, his royal brother should like Ye Qingwan.

His beloved was kidnapped, and not only did he not cause trouble for Liu Sheng, he even protected him secretly?

Nangong Muyun did not answer the Tenth Master. He was afraid that Tiandao would suddenly go back on his word and not even give them a month.

Liu Sheng may not need his protection, but he is still worried. He will feel more at ease if he finds someone to watch over him.
