Over there, Yang Hanlun had already picked up Chen Birou's sedan chair, and was just waiting for the auspicious moment to start worshiping heaven and earth. Lin Haihai hadn't come back yet, and an ominous premonition flashed through Yang Hanlun's heart. The accompanying guards were missing, and the emperor's brother hadn't arrived either.
Chen Luoqing, Xiao Yuan, and Zheng Feng were all gone. Could it be that something really happened? The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he wanted to rush out to look for him immediately. His confidant Fei Hu stopped him and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, everything is going wrong at this time.
You can't leave. All the civil and military officials are here now. If something really happens, you can't leave. You have to stabilize people's hearts. Trust General Chen!"
Yang Hanlun stared at him, swaying a little, and squeezed out a few words through his teeth: "Tell me, what happened?"
Feihu turned his head away, feeling a little embarrassed. Yang Hanlu said angrily: "The king orders you to speak immediately!" Feihu hesitated for a moment and said with difficulty: "Please be sure to restrain yourself after listening to this. The princess is on her way to Baoguo Temple.
He was captured, and the emperor met the killer. All the people accompanying him were killed, except Eunuch Xiao."
Yang Hanlun's eyes were red and his face was pale. He grabbed Feihu's shoulders tightly and asked, "Where is my imperial brother? Where is my imperial brother?"
Feihu took a deep breath and his voice was choked with sobs: "The Emperor and his carriage fell off the cliff, and are now being searched everywhere!"
Yang Hanlun let go of his hands, his face full of disbelief. He shook his head and staggered a step. Feihu said worriedly: "My lord, you can't leave at this time. This matter can't be spread, otherwise all the officials will panic.
.You can only pretend that nothing happened and worship heaven and earth happily!"
Yang Hanlun's eyes narrowed, his fists were clenched, and his body was trembling slightly. He tried hard to control his emotions. Feihu was right. He must not act rashly at this time. The life or death of the emperor's brother was uncertain. If someone took the opportunity to cause trouble,
Then the hearts of the officials must be wavering, fearing that the traitors will take advantage of them. What we need now is calmness, ****!
He took a few deep breaths, looked at the pouring rain outside, and said coldly: "Take some brothers to join the search and rescue, and we must find the emperor!"
Feihu knelt down on one knee and said solemnly: "I will definitely do my best to search and rescue you. Please relax, Your Majesty!"
The housekeeper hurriedly came over and said, "Your Majesty, the auspicious time is coming. The Queen Mother asked about the Princess and asked people to rush the Emperor. She became anxious and angry!"
Yang Hanlun went to the back without saying a word, forgetting that his mother was still there and needed to explain.
Yang Hanlun walked in. The Queen Mother was losing her temper and said nothing with a sullen face. When she saw Yang Hanlun coming in, she immediately started nagging: "Tell me, your imperial brother, what is he going to do on such a great day today? It's an auspicious time now."
We’re almost there. How can he not behave appropriately? There are also Yuguan and the queen who went to pay incense and haven’t come back yet. If neither one of them is here, what is going on?”
Yang Hanlun suppressed his sadness, forced out a smile and said: "Mother, the emperor must have left because of urgent matters. Also, the guards just came to report that due to the heavy rain at the Baoguo Temple, there was a landslide.
The official road has been blocked, and the queen is taking shelter from the rain in Baoguo Temple! She will come back as soon as the road is clear!"
The Queen Mother looked at the pouring rain outside with a worried look on her face: "Why do you think we got such weather? Last night, the Imperial Master calculated that today would be a sunny day. Why did it suddenly rain? The Ai family was worried.
Always uneasy!"
"Mother, you are worried. It is summer now, and there are already many thunderstorms. It's not a big deal if it rains occasionally." Yang Hanlun comforted her, but she was anxious in her heart.
"Lihua, wait at the door and report as soon as he comes back!" The Queen Mother stood up and ordered the maid behind her. Your maid named Lihua immediately relaxed and said, "Yes, I will go right now!"
"Wait a minute, Lihua, you stay here and wait. I will send someone to wait. Mother, please be patient. I have my own opinions!" Yang Hanlun was afraid that the guards outside would leak the news, so he immediately called Lihua.
.
The Queen Mother stared at Yang Hanlun's face and asked: "Has something happened?" Yang Hanlun was startled and immediately said: "What happened? No, Queen Mother, where did you think of it?"
The Queen Mother looked at him for a long time and remained silent. After a while, she said: "Go, the auspicious time is coming soon, get ready to worship! Lihua, support Aijia!" Lihua hurriedly stepped forward to support the Queen Mother, only to find that
Her face was pale, her body was trembling, and her hands were cold. Just as she was about to speak, the Queen Mother immediately gave her a warning look. Lihua quickly lowered her head, supported the Queen Mother and left.
Yang Hanlun secretly breathed a sigh of relief and followed the Queen Mother. The rain was getting heavier and heavier, with no sign of stopping. Brother Huang, Haihai, are you still safe?
The auspicious time has come, and the officials are about to pray to heaven and earth. All the officials are eagerly looking forward to the emperor's appearance, but when the moment of worship begins, the emperor still does not appear. The officials are confused, why doesn't the emperor come? Could something happen?
The Queen Mother sat gracefully in the high hall, looking at the newlyweds in front of her with a smile. The officials couldn't help but feel calm after seeing the couple. The Queen Mother was so calm and happy that nothing happened.
Chen Birou appeared shyly at the door with the support of Xi Niang. Yang Hanlun quickly stepped forward to take the red satin knotted in a heart, each holding one end. The officiant was Luo Kuanyuan, who shouted: "Bow down to heaven and earth!", the newlyweds
Yingying knelt down, offered incense, and bowed again.
"Second bow to the High Hall!" The newlyweds knelt down under the Queen Mother Hall and kowtowed.
"Husband and wife pay homage!" Yang Hanlun looked at the bride covered with a red scarf, feeling no joy at all, only full of anxiety.
Chen Birou watched with joy as the thick big hand under the red scarf took her hand. All these years of waiting were finally over. Although there was an extra woman in the middle, she was confident that as long as she was always by his side, he would soon be there.
Remembering their happy days in the past. That woman was not in trouble. Just looking at today's battle, you can tell that this is not the treatment of marrying a concubine. This is simply the wedding banquet of a principal concubine. Dad said that when marrying a principal concubine,
It wasn't necessarily so grand. I think the Queen Mother doted on her. There was a faint smile on her lips, and the smile was full of pride.
The rain still showed no sign of stopping, but got heavier and heavier. The strong wind mixed with the red and green on the ground, and the window lattice with the word "Happy" fluttered. The guests were all ruined by the heavy rain, because this was the sixth prince's wedding.
At the wedding, everyone was forced to smile. The Queen Mother sat firmly on the chair and toasted to everyone frequently. The Emperor still did not show up, the Queen did not come, and the controversial concubine was also missing. General Chen, who always dislikes excitement, did not come.
It is understandable that some attentive people noticed that even Lord Qing Luo of Dali Temple had disappeared. A sneer appeared on the corner of Prime Minister Yan's mouth, and this smile could not escape Yang Hanlun's eyes. He stared at Prime Minister Yan coldly, with anger.
He was suffering from fever and wanted to kill him immediately. But he tried to restrain himself and toasted to the guests with a smile on his face. Luo Kuanyuan left without everyone noticing, riding his horse eastward, running towards the direction where the emperor disappeared.
.
Chen Luoqing was on the verge of losing control. Every time he took a step, his heart sank. What a high cliff this was. The rocks protruded and there were cliffs everywhere. It was already difficult to find a way down, let alone fall.
