In Jingtsu Temple, the Empress' appetite was quite good. She ate a small bowl of rice and the dishes were also very good. She even ate two pieces of meat for the first time.
Fang Yi said: "Niangniang should be like this. Only by eating well can your complexion improve."
The Empress smiled and said: "That's right! Ever since that person was captured, it seems like the burden that has been on my shoulders all these years has been lifted. I feel unspeakably relaxed and free. " She took the fruit that Fang Yi handed over and ate a few more pieces. Everyone could see that the Empress was in a good mood.
But in reality, other than Fang Yi, the other palace servants didn't really understand the Empress' mentality. How long had it been since the Emperor came? He only cared about Consort Yun all day. How could he remember that he still had an Empress? There were many people who secretly complained for the Empress, but they didn't know that the Empress liked this kind of situation very much. After so many years, she had long been used to living separately from Emperor Tianwu. In the past, when Emperor Tianwu personally ruled, the two of them only needed to appear together on certain occasions and support the scene together. Although it seemed that Emperor Tianwu didn't treat her well, the Empress didn't ask for favor or anything. The old Emperor gave her what she deserved and didn't even look at her differently because of her status. He still believed in her and gave her the Dashun Inner Palace. Just based on this kindness, she had to guard the Imperial Palace well for the old Emperor.
Fang Yi told her: "There's news from Zhao He Hall saying that His Ninth Highness will take Royal Consort Yu and leave the capital in the future. His Majesty and Consort Yun will also leave with them. This news was sent by Zhang Yuan. This servant thinks that it should be His Majesty's intention to let niangniang know in advance and make preparations. Niangniang, what do you think … … "
"There's nothing to prepare." The Empress smiled, "His Majesty, that person! He doesn't have a peaceful personality. He's been out of tune for so many years. This one can't mess around with him. If he wants to leave, then let him leave! The two of them have suffered enough. They're already at this age, how many years of good days can they live? Let them go! However, this consort cannot leave. Dashun needs someone to support it. Even if the Sixth Prince ascends the throne in the future, he still needs an Empress Dowager to hold the fort. After all, that Noble Lady Li really makes one worry. "
The Empress was worried about Noble Lady Li because she was going to be the Empress Dowager in the future. Although she was now locked up in Jing Si Palace and was not allowed to leave, the Sixth Prince had succeeded the throne, so there was no reason to keep the person who should be the Empress Dowager locked up. But that Noble Lady Li was restless. If not for the Empress of the Central Palace holding down the fort, the harem would most likely be in chaos again.
Noble Lady Li was indeed restless. That person of hers, ever since she was a young lady in her maternal family, she had many thoughts, but she did not express them very openly. She had always kept it in her heart, and as she kept it in, she kept it in until she had a bellyful of bad water. This kind of person, in the words of the common people, was listless. They looked honest, but in fact, they were very grumbling.
For example, right now, in Jing Si Palace, Noble Lady Li had flipped through a Taoist book out of nowhere. She held it in her hands and read it for two days and two nights in one go. The person who used to sit in the temple hall suddenly changed to reading a Taoist book, causing the maidservant Zuo to be confused. But no matter what, she was just sitting and reading. Zuo thought that as long as Noble Lady Li didn't run out of Jing Si Palace, everything would be fine.
However, she didn't know how Noble Lady Li read the book. It was so good that she didn't understand it, but she clearly understood the story of alchemy and immortality. She really wanted to ask Zuo if eating these pills could make one live forever. Or perhaps live a few more years. When her son became the Emperor, she would have the final say in the harem. She didn't have any status when she was a concubine, but it was different when she was the Empress Dowager. She was the Emperor's birth mother. Who would dare to look down on her?
But when these words reached the tip of her tongue, she did not dare to say it, because she realised that this Zuo Er seemed to be in cahoots with her son, reporting everything to Xuan Tianfeng. If Xuan Tianfeng knew that she wanted to eat pills, he would definitely not agree.
Therefore, Consort Li concealed this matter and only said, "I'm very interested in Taoism. Zuo, go and tell His Highness the Sixth Prince that I want to invite two Taoists to the palace to preach about Taoism. I heard that the Golden Jade Temple in Xiao Zhou is very popular. Let's go there and invite them! "
Zuo didn't suspect anything and invited the two Taoists to the palace. This had happened before. She even heard that the former Emperor was very close to Taoism and had set up altars in the palace. Therefore, she agreed and didn't think that it was a big deal.
Back to Feng Yu Heng. When she left the palace and returned to the Imperial Palace Yu, the sky was already completely dark. After walking around in a large circle, she was truly exhausted, but she still went into her space to prepare. She found a few types of tea and had Wang Chuan pack them up. The next morning, she would have Xuan Tianming bring them to the palace for the Sixth Prince.
After taking care of these things, she thought that it was time to worry about Bai Ze's marriage.
Some of her sisters were getting married, while others were getting engaged. Bai Ze and Bai Fu Rong had been in love for many years, so it was time to take care of it. Although she was Fu Rong's good sister, Xuan Tianming was still Bai Ze's master. She still needed to stand on the man's side to consider and handle this matter.
Thus the next day, Xuan Tianming went into the palace to attend court. She called Bai Ze over and gave Bai Ze an explanation: "Although you don't have parents alive, Fu Rong's father is still alive! That's why the marriage definitely cannot be simplified. Everything that needs to be done must be done. Not a single one can be left out. I will have someone that specializes in this business take care of it for you. From the marriage proposal to the exchange of the engagement notes, you must personally participate. "
Bai Ze was a little moved by the mention of his marriage, and he was a little embarrassed. In truth, he had wanted to bring this up a long time ago, but his masters were all very busy, and there were many matters in the capital. How could he bring himself to bring it up at a time like this. But if he didn't bring it up, he would feel that it would be too much to explain to Fu Rong. While he was feeling conflicted, who knew that Feng Yu Heng would bring it up. He thought that his Princess Consort was really too considerate! Aiya, in the mountains in the northwest, he had foolishly pointed a sword at her. Thinking about it now, the princess hadn't shot him to death at that time. She really was too kind.
The marriage was arranged like this. Feng Yu Heng was very good to Bai Ze. After all, they had known each other for a long time. They had met in the mountains together with Xuan Tianming. That's why she had specially asked Lady Zhou to take care of this matter. This had made Bai Ze very excited.
But everything had to be given up. Feng Yu Heng had said that once he got married, he would have a family. He had to be responsible for Fu Rong and this family. That's why Bai Ze couldn't leave the capital with them in the future. He had to stay here and live his own life.
This matter had been discussed by Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tianming. Xuan Tianming had also agreed to let Bai Ze stay. First, it would let Bai Ze take care of the family. Second, they had to keep someone reliable in the capital.
Bai Ze couldn't bear to leave his master, but he knew that it was almost time to part. A person couldn't walk down the same path all the way to the end. Life always had a turning point. He was grateful that his master had arranged this marriage for him. He was even more grateful that his master had given him a home that belonged to him.
On Bai Ze's side, the marriage had been arranged. Under Lady Zhou's arrangements, he personally brought the betrothal gifts that Imperial Palace Yu had prepared for him to Ji 'an County to see Craftsman Bai.
On the other side of the capital, the Prime Minister's Manor was also bustling with activity. Because they had heard that Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tianming were going to leave the capital, Feng Yu Heng had specially moved the wedding date forward. They had to have the wedding before Feng Yu Heng left the capital so that the two sisters could have a good reunion.
However, the Pingnan General's Office didn't make preparations too early. This was because Emperor Tianwu had specially asked General Pingnan to wait for the Sixth Prince's wedding. There was no need to rush it and it shouldn't be done according to the rules of a prince. He had plans to pass on the throne. He wanted to have the Sixth Prince directly hold the Empress Dowager's wedding. Regarding this, General Pingnan didn't have any objections.
Outside the city, the fake Eighth Prince's forces had already begun to gather. The officials in court became nervous once more. Every day in court, they would discuss this matter for half a day. Fortunately, the current court was filled with their own people. Although they would occasionally quarrel, they were all sincere about what was best for Dashun. This also saved the Sixth Prince a lot of trouble.
The court was nervous, but on the other hand, Feng Yu Heng's side slowed down the pace of her life. She began to slowly enjoy life. Every day, she went to bed early and woke up early. Every day, she would go out with Xuan Tianming. One would go to court, and the other would go to the imperial daughter's manor to find Xiang Rong to train together.
If Feng Fendai also trained with her, the three would gather at the imperial daughter's manor every morning. Then, they would run around the courtyard. Feng Yu Heng had prepared a fitness program for the two of them. The two girls were very enthusiastic about training.
It was just that Xiang Rong's body had not completely recovered. She could not do anything too strenuous. She would need to rest after running for a while. But seeing Fendai and Feng Yu Heng training happily, she was also happy. It was just that she would always think of that deity-like person. Second Sister said that he did not die, but, where exactly was he?
On this day, Feng Yu Heng stayed in her space for an entire day. First, she did a routine examination for Xuan Tianhua. Then, she moved a chair to the side and sat. She stared blankly at the person lying on the bed.
So much time had passed, yet he still had not woken up. Although she had already prepared herself for the possibility that Xuan Tianhua would not wake up for ten or twenty years, she still hoped that a miracle would happen. How many times had she dreamt of Xuan Tianhua suddenly waking up and smiling at her. He was like a deity. Everything was the same. Unfortunately, when she opened her eyes, this person could only rely on this cold operating room to survive.
Feng Yu Heng reached out and shook hands with the person on the bed. She really wanted to tell him what had happened in the capital these few days. But when she opened her mouth, she choked with sobs. She had to work very hard to calm her emotions down. Then, she muttered softly. She quietly narrated Xiang Rong and Consort Yun's serious illness, Fendai's wedding, Fung Tianyu agreeing to Li Kun's marriage proposal, the Sixth Prince sending the betrothal gifts to Pingnan General's Office. Everything that had happened in the capital was told in such a way. It sounded very ordinary, but every single one of them affected their thoughts.
She stayed in her space for half a day. She held Xuan Tianhua's hand and talked non-stop. When they separated in the afternoon, she heard Huang Quan's voice shouting outside, saying: "Young Miss, Princess Wu Yang has returned to the capital! The Gu Shu Ruler has also returned! "
Her heart trembled. She hurriedly left her space. But she did not see, on the bed in the operating room, that deity-like person's fingers moved slightly … …
