Some of the more impatient ones couldn't wait to open the letter as soon as they got it. Under the nervous gaze of the surrounding people, they slowly unfolded the folded letter and then showed a disappointed look.
There were also some who were self-restrained and dignified. They first put the letter aside, but after a while, they couldn't help but open it again.
Xiao Zhangping and Qi Juanyu looked at the opened letters nervously. Every time they saw a disappointed face, they secretly let out a sigh of relief and rejoiced in their hearts. Then, they continued to look at the next one with trembling hearts until the remaining 22 empty letters were all displayed in front of everyone.
At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on them because there were only two of them left. Then, the final candidate for the heir's wife would definitely fall on one of them!
Xiao Zhangping's heart almost jumped out of her throat. She forcefully pressed down on her wildly beating heart and softly pleaded to Old Princess Consort Yu beside her: "Imperial Consort Yu, please open it for Ping'er."
Old Consort Yu nodded and picked up the envelope. She took the letter from the maidservant and gently opened the cinnabar seal. Xiao Zhangping held her breath and opened the seal.
In the next moment, the last tears in Xiao Zhangping's eyes rolled down. She bit her lips and threw herself into Old Consort Yu's arms. Old Princess Consort Yu patted her back with heartache and let out a pitiful sigh.
A crimson blush immediately rushed to Qi Juanyu's cheeks, making her reveal an uncontrollable joy. She immediately picked up the unopened letter and held it tightly to her chest.
It's not Xiao Zhangping. So, it's her! It must be her!
She desperately restrained her trembling fingertips and ordered her personal mammy to help her open the seal. Suddenly, Xiao Zhangping walked over with tears in her eyes, holding the hem of her skirt, and said, "I'll... help you open it!"
Looking at her red eyes, Qi Juanyu raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Do you want to let yourself give up completely? I won't do as you wish. I'll open it for you personally and let you know that God is on my side from the beginning to the end. "
"You!" Xiao Zhangping gritted her teeth angrily and reached out to snatch it.
Old Concubine Su and Old Concubine Xu both frowned when they saw that it was getting more and more outrageous. They ordered the servants to stop it immediately and not make it too ugly. Old Princess Consort Yu leaned over and coughed. She hurriedly walked over to Xiao Zhangping and comforted him: "Child, since things have already come to this, why force it? In the end, it's because you're not fated to meet him. "
Xiao Zhangping trembled and finally let go, allowing Old Princess Consort Yu to return the letter to the palace servant beside her, who then returned it to Qi Zhanyu.
Qi Juanyu sneered and opened the envelope in front of Qi Juanyu. A line of words floated in the air like a dragon in front of everyone's eyes.
The hundreds of people in the hall, real or fake, all smiled and congratulated him. Imperial Concubine Qi even pressed down hard on her shoulder to show her satisfaction.
Only Ning Shu, who had been silently watching the development of the situation, frowned slightly with inexplicable suspicion in her eyes. Then, she quickly imprinted the positions of everyone in the hall into her mind.
Behind the screen, Xiahou Qing's face flashed a trace of unpredictability. Then, he slowly walked out of the screen under Qi Juanyu's expectant gaze. With the help of Hui Mo, he walked to Qi Juanyu.
Until this moment, Qi Juanyu, who had always been domineering, looked at Xiahou Qing who was as high as the clouds in the sky and snow on the branches. Her cheeks were red as she read the words on the letter in a trance and excitement: "Your Highness … Thousands of flowers bloom on the night of the east wind."
The lighting in the Weiyang Palace was excellent. Beams of bright sunlight shone into the palace through the hollowed-out auspicious decorations. Some of them fell on him, making him look like an immortal who had quietly descended to the mortal world. And in that light, he slightly raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a perfect smile, and replied: "Blowing down, stars fall like rain."
Behind him, no one noticed that Ning Shu almost immediately walked back to the screen and raised her head.
