Su Zhenting glanced at Su Pingbei, as if he was considering whether he could talk about this matter.
Su Pingbei became anxious and said, "Dad, why are you hiding it from me now? If I don't know anything about the situation, I won't be able to cooperate with you at the Shenwu Sect later."
Su Zhenting snorted and lowered his voice and said: "The news just came that several key privy councilors in the Duwei Mansion are missing."
This sentence is not long, but the amount of information contained makes Su Pingbei's scalp numb.
"Privy Councilor!? Or in a key position!?"
"This position is not high, but it has access to many secrets. What does this disappearance mean? Are they dead or are they from over there?"
Su Zhenting frowned and said in a deep voice: "We are not sure yet. We have sent people to investigate, but there is no news yet. It must be more serious than bad."
Su Pingbei gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it, this old dog Zhao Xuanji is really hidden. The entire Fifth Army Governor's Mansion has been screened countless times, and there are still nails hidden."
At this moment, there was a commotion outside the general's mansion.
"It's someone from the palace. Go to Shenwu Sect quickly. Your side is very important and nothing can go wrong. Once the situation changes, I will send someone to notify you immediately."
Su Zhenting said this and turned around to leave.
Su Pingbei looked at Su Zhenting's back and sighed lightly, but without saying much, turned around and left the General's Mansion through the back door.
At this moment, Fengxi Palace.
The Fengxi Palace, decorated with lanterns and colors, also ushered in rare excitement.
Under the watchful eyes of officials from the Ministry of Rites and the Zongren Mansion, as well as other concubines, princes and princesses in the harem, Li Chen knelt in the middle of the Fengxi Palace, with Zhao Qinglan, the empress of the Qin Empire, sitting in front of him.
"Prince, today you are getting married. I and your father are supposed to host it for you. However, your father's body is not in good health, so I will handle everything on your behalf. The prince's wedding is a happy event for the family and the country. Your father is
It will also be gratifying to know.”
After Zhao Qinglan, who was also dressed in a rich attire and extremely elegant, said something, Li Chen was reminded by the officials of the Ministry of Etiquette to perform a grand ceremony of kneeling three times and kowtowing nine times.
"My dear father, thank you so much to your mother. I am grateful to my mother for your hard work. My dear son, I must keep this in mind."
Nodding, Zhao Qinglan looked at Li Chen, who was kneeling in front of him with a meticulous look, and said calmly: "The country and the country, the family and the family have been passed on from generation to generation. The Li family has inherited the family and country for three hundred and sixty years. Now the current crown prince of the Qin Empire, Li Chen, is getting married.
On this day of universal celebration, I also hope that the prince can solve more problems for the country in the future, share the worries of your father, carry the burden for the country, the country, and seek benefits for the people of Li."
"Sons and ministers must live up to the expectations of their mother and queen, solve problems for the country, share the worries of their father and emperor, carry the country and the country, and seek benefits for the common people."
After the two of them finished performing the script that they had already planned, Zhao Qinglan stood up and said: "Let's set off and report to God at the Ancestral Temple to tell the story of our ancestors."
In the palace, drum music was playing loudly.
There was joy everywhere, as the prince and queen were welcomed to the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
In the Imperial Ancestral Temple, there were still the same officials from the Ministry of Rites and the same elders from the clan mansion. Under their supervision, Li Chen and Zhao Qinglan continued to worship heaven and comfort their ancestors according to the script.
Originally, the process here was done by the emperor and the prince, but since the emperor couldn't come, the queen had to do it for her.
When Zhao Qinglan personally wrote Su Jinpa's name in the ancestral register of the Imperial Ancestral Temple of the Li family, in a legal sense, Su Jinpa already belonged to the Li family.
After putting away the ancestral books, all the other people left. Next was the process of the Queen and the Crown Prince reciting memorial inscriptions on the portraits of past emperors. No one was allowed to stay and listen.
Zhao Qinglan was taking out the memorial inscription to recite when Li Chen, who saw no one there, took a step forward and stood side by side with Zhao Qinglan.
