Xie Mingxi's actions are unprecedented and unprecedented.
Emperor Jianwen, who was familiar with all kinds of battles in the city, was also shocked and speechless for a long time.
Empress Yu glanced at Emperor Jianwen, who had a complicated look on his face, and said with a smile: "Xie felt sorry for the injury of the seventh prince, and took the initiative to come to propose marriage. The emperor should be pleased to have such a good daughter-in-law."
Emperor Jianwen still had that complicated and unspeakable look on his face, and after a while he said: "I should indeed be pleased."
After pausing for a moment, Emperor Jianwen frowned and said, "Mr. Xie is so eager to come to visit me. Is it because she is worried that I will repent of my marriage? If you think so, you are looking down on me."
In fact, he had no intention of canceling the engagement.
The most I can do is to reschedule the date and select two talented and beautiful ladies from a famous family to be the concubines of the Seventh Prince and come in together...
In this way, it would be inconvenient for him to refer to his concubine again. Even if he had this idea, he would have to wait for a year or two before talking about it.
Empress Yu and Emperor Jianwen had been husband and wife for several years, and they knew Emperor Jianwen's temperament very well. With just one look, she could guess Emperor Jianwen's thoughts.
Empress Yu said with a half-smile: "Is it possible that the emperor wants to select two concubines for the seventh prince to come in together?"
Emperor Jianwen categorically refused to admit it: "It's nothing. The queen misunderstood."
"I just feel that Mr. Xie's destiny is a little tough. There have been so many disturbances before the wedding ceremony. It is really unlucky to see blood on the wedding day."
Empress Yu said calmly: "Someone wants to harm the seventh prince and secretly plans an assassination. What does this have to do with Xie Mingxi? The emperor used this matter to assert that Xie Mingxi's fate is a bit tough. Isn't he falling into someone else's scheme?"
"If some villain uses this matter to cause trouble in the future, and the Emperor's mind is wavered, it will be unfair to Xie Mingxi."
Emperor Jianwen was speechless for a moment, then smiled and said: "That's all! For Xianzhi's sake, I won't say more."
Queen Yu defended Xie Mingxi in this way just because of the face of Mr. Gu.
It was rare for Emperor Jianwen to make concessions, and Empress Yu was not unreasonable. She pursed her lips and smiled: "Your Majesty is so considerate, I can't thank you enough."
After a while, he added: "Eunuch Lu led the imperial doctor to the seventh prince's mansion. I don't know how injured the seventh prince is or whether he is seriously injured."
"Three years ago during the spring hunting in Xishan, someone dared to assassinate the emperor. Now, in broad daylight, someone assassinated the seventh prince in the capital. It is very scary to think about it."
"I sincerely request your Majesty to investigate this matter thoroughly and find out the real culprit behind the scenes."
Emperor Jianwen's expression darkened, his eyes filled with coldness.
Who is it that has such a deep hatred against the Seventh Prince and insists on putting him to death?
…
The Seventh Prince's Mansion.
Sheng Hong couldn't move his left arm, so Eunuch Wei helped him change into his wedding clothes.
Eunuch Wei looked at his master's slightly pale and firm handsome face, and felt a little sad. He couldn't help but boldly said: "My slave has lost all roots of descendants since he was a child. Now that he thinks about it, he has also lost the roots of right and wrong!"
In Eunuch Wei's view, isn't this just teasing himself?
The injury on the master's arm is neither serious nor minor. After losing so much blood, he should stay at home peacefully. With so much running back and forth, what if the wound opens again?
Sheng Hong glanced at the handsome Eunuch Wei and said casually: "You have no right or wrong roots, so stay away from Xianghui. Don't call Sister Xianghui so affectionate."
Eunuch Wei: "..."
Eunuch Wei's handsome face suddenly turned red. Fortunately, he was quite dignified and thick-skinned, so he responded with a smile as if nothing had happened.
Sheng Hong was not in the mood to expose Eunuch Wei's little secrets.
To welcome the bride today, there were guards inside and outside the Seventh Prince's palace, and the guards responsible for escorting the bride were also carefully selected. He had taken detoxifying pills before, and specially wore an armor made of soft gold silk under his wedding clothes.
However, the armor can protect the chest, abdomen and back, but it cannot protect the arms. The dead man who secretly fired arrows seemed to know that he was wearing armor, and every arrow was aimed at his head, face, or arms and legs.
As for the arrows not being coated with venom, it is not difficult to explain.
The fourth prince is also present today. The arrows have no eyes, and in order to prevent accidental damage, the arrows are not poisonous.
Zhou Lang, who delivered the letter, has already arrived at Xie's house. Xie Mingxi must also know about his assassination and injury! I wonder if she won't be angry at him for not being well prepared and missing the right time...
"Your Highness!" Guard Zhou's hurried voice suddenly sounded outside the door: "Zhou Lang is back. He said he has something important to report to you!"
Sheng Hong quickly came to his senses and walked out quickly.
…
Zhou Lang, who went to Xie's house to deliver a message, quickly returned to the Seventh Prince's Mansion.
Under the gaze of Princess Changping and all the princes, Zhou Lang did not dare to raise his head no matter how courageous he was, and he knelt down to salute.
"Does Xie Mingxi know that the Seventh Emperor's brother is injured and still insists on welcoming the bride?" Princess Changping asked first.
Zhou Lang responded tremblingly: "I personally told Miss Xie San about this matter. Miss Xie San said..."
"What did she say?"
The Seventh Prince Sheng Hong, who had changed into a brand new wedding dress, strode into the main hall. Except for his handsome face turning pale and his left arm hanging limply, he was no different from usual. But his tone was too eager: "What on earth did Mingxi say?"
Zhou Lang didn't dare to show off, so he immediately said: "Miss Xie San said that His Highness the Seventh Prince should wait patiently in the mansion. She will come to the Seventh Prince's Mansion to pay homage to His Highness."
Sheng Hong: "..."
Everyone: "..."
Quiet!
Absolute silence!
It wasn't until there was a crisp sound that everyone came back to their senses and subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound.
Yue Shangshu, who was so shocked that the tea cup he was holding was unstable, fell to the ground and smashed into pieces. His face turned red and he said, "I'm sorry! I was so shocked that I forgot there was a tea cup in my hand. I'm really sorry!"
Don't be sorry! Don't say you are shocked, we are also shocked! If there was a tea cup in our hand, we would definitely smash it together!
The same emotion surged in everyone's hearts.
Only the fourth prince had shock and anger flashing in his eyes!
This is Xie Mingxi!
How could she have the nerve to behave like this!
On the day of marriage, the husband should be the one to greet the bride. How can there be any reason for a woman to take the initiative to come to the wedding hall... This, this is simply ridiculous and ridiculous!
The fourth prince winked at Yue Shangshu calmly.
The dignified Minister of Rites is here, and as long as he insists that this matter is unethical, he can stop this farce!
Yue Shangshu is a young man and his reaction is a little slow.
The Fourth Prince winked, and Yue Shangshu was stunned for a moment before realizing it. He cleared his throat and said: "Your Highness, the Seventh Prince, Miss Xie San took the initiative to come to the Prince's Mansion to pay homage. This matter may not be in line with etiquette..."
"
His Highness Sheng Hong, the Seventh Prince, was immersed in his own ecstasy as if no one else was watching, and did not even hear what Yue Shangshu was saying.
Mingxi came on her own initiative!
She cares about him more than she admits! (To be continued)
