As expected by everyone, she became the wife of the Marquis after being married off

On the day of the palace banquet, Shen Lanyue did not go to the palace to attend because she had not yet finished her confinement. Instead, she had some free time at home.

However, as one of the protagonists, Meng Changce naturally did not escape the congratulations and jokes of many people at the table. Emperor Yingde also mentioned this matter at the table, and even mentioned the princes, saying that there are few royal heirs.

"Does your mother have to worry about such a small matter?" Emperor Yingde said casually.

The queen's eyebrows jumped, she glanced at him, and stood up: "It's all because I, the queen mother, didn't think about it. I thought that all the princes had their favorite women, and this good thing is about to happen."

Emperor Yingde drew an unfathomable arc and glanced at the empress with a calm and deep look in his eyes.

It was just a moment, and he turned his head to look at the virtuous concubine on the other side.

Concubine Xian was stunned for just a second after he said that, but she knew Emperor Yingde very well, and when he looked at her, she met his eyes and smiled faintly.

Emperor Yingde glanced at it and said nothing.

His gaze returned to the princes.

The queen's expression changed slightly, but she quickly concealed it and put a decent smile on her face again.

"I admit my mistake!" said the princes.

"Uncle, today is a great day, please let the princes go," a hearty and casual voice rang out from the banquet.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Wang Shuo who was speaking. He looked fearless and his eyes were filled with arrogance.

But he does have the capital!

As expected, the curve of Emperor Yingde's mouth became much more relaxed, and he said indifferently: "I actually forgot about you all of a sudden. Your mother just recently told me that she wanted to find a good girl for you."

"Ah?" Wang Shuo said in annoyance, "If I had known that my uncle didn't notice me, I wouldn't have come out to help my cousins."

Emperor Yingde raised his eyebrows and laughed out loud when he heard this.

The tense atmosphere at the table instantly dissipated, and he waved his hand to signal them to sit down.

"Everyone, take a seat."

"Thank you, Father."

Wang Shuo also sat down generously, picked up the wine glass and ran to Emperor Yingde.

The others could only see his mean expression and his quick steps moving among them, really having the best of both worlds.

Meng Changce looked like he was enjoying a show. He tilted his head to watch it carefully, then lowered his eyes and took a sip of wine.

The palace banquet ended quickly, and apart from this incident, the banquet was quite pleasant.

Meng Changce had no plan to stay longer. He was eager to return home. After all, he was not the one who was really anxious in the palace.

After the palace banquet was over, Emperor Yingde, who was supposed to go to the Queen's Palace, went to Concubine Xian's. Suddenly, no one in Kunning Palace dared to breathe loudly.

The queen glanced at the cautious palace maids and sneered, "Why, are you afraid that I will be angry?"

"I dare not!"

They fell to their knees with a loud noise, and each of them bowed their heads to the ground, their bodies trembling.

By the time the queen's personal nanny came in with the prepared hangover soup, the atmosphere in the palace had become extremely tense.

Mammy took the tray from the maid and told the maids on the ground, "Get off."

"Yes."

The queen took a glance and rubbed her forehead with her hand.

"Queen, why bother with her? She can never beat you no matter what." The nanny placed the hangover soup in front of her and stood behind the queen to rub her gently. "You should focus on your own body."

The queen felt much more comfortable under her massage, and she closed her eyes and said, "I don't have the time to argue with Concubine Xian, but the emperor is clearly warning me today."

"how do I say this?"

The queen sighed, "Although Prince Sheng is the legitimate son, he also has a concubine's son. But I have two sons by my side, and the virtuous prince has only two daughters, and no sons so far."

"Xu Li..." Speaking of him, the Queen frowned even more tightly, her worry expression unable to dissipate. She shook her head and sighed, "If not... I would be the same as Marquis Changning now."

"He is very obsessed with Shurong. I mentioned it once before, saying that he doesn't want a princess, but a concubine is fine. But he refused completely and didn't let me mention it again."

The Queen lowered her eyes and said in a stern voice: "The Emperor values ​​offspring the most. If Xu Li has no offspring..."

She knew Emperor Yingde too well. He had few children. Even though there were many concubines in the harem and no matter how diligently they visited him, over the years only the Sixth Prince's mother, now Concubine Chun, had given birth to a child.

The queen thought that perhaps because Emperor Yingde had done too many evil things, he would have fewer children in this life.

But every time she thought of this, she would think of her only child, who died shortly after birth. Perhaps this was also her retribution.

-------------------------------------

Compared to the suspicion and oppression in the imperial palace, the Changning Marquis' Mansion was extremely lively, with red lanterns hung all over the branches and couplets posted everywhere, even letting the maids and servants paste their own couplets.

The purpose is just to celebrate.

So when Meng Changce stepped into the yard, his heart felt like it was soaked in warm water, and his whole body felt warm.

He strode forward anxiously, and finally ran, and finally saw Shen Lanyue with a smile under the evergreen tree.

Shen Lanyue looked up, with a faint smile in her eyes, which seemed to contain the tenderness of thousands of mountains and rivers, attracting him in.

Meng Changce took one step and then two steps to hold the person in his arms, with a smile on his face: "Aren't you cold? Why don't you go in?"

Shen Lanyue reached out and hugged him tightly, gently shaking her head in his arms: "It's not cold, I just came out because the servant came to report that you were back."

"Haha." Meng Changce smiled even softer.

He pulled away a little, pressed his forehead against hers, with stars in his eyes smiling, and held her hand with one hand.

Shen Lanyue lowered her eyes and glanced at him, with a barely perceptible tenderness in her pupils.

Shen Lanyue has a new tie.

The new year has arrived and lights are on in every home.

On the eve of the New Year, the emperor suddenly fainted in his imperial study and slept for three days, shocking the whole court and the country.

The empress dowager even had to come out in person to suppress the situation and wait until the emperor woke up.

But the emperor woke up but couldn't move, which caused even more debate in the court.

What are you fighting for?

Naturally, he is the candidate for the crown prince.

Meng Changce stood in the court, his eyes flashed with a strange look, and he stood there quietly without saying a word. There was a meaningful smile on the corner of his mouth, and his expression was gloomy.

At the same time, the eldest princess, who had always lived outside the palace, was summoned by the empress dowager to live in the palace, and she personally guarded Emperor Yingde's bedroom.

Even when the Empress went to see Emperor Yingde, the eldest princess had to accompany her.

I heard that this was the imperial decree issued by Emperor Yingde himself after he woke up!
