A worker with a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan travels back in time to ancient times and becomes a pri

Under the guidance of the ceremonial officer, several people continued to walk towards the emperor. At this time, Xia Taoyuan had already let go of Chu Xingluo's arm.

Chu Xingluo looked at her and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Xia Taoyuan let out a long sigh and whispered, "I'm tired."

Chu Xingluo suddenly leaned down and said, "Come on, lie down, I'll carry you."

Xia Taoyuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled. She was not polite and lay on Chu Xingluo's back. The two of them ignored other people's eyes. Xia Taoyuan whispered in Chu Xingluo's ear: "After we finish here, I want to go to the palace to swing."

Chu Xingluo's eyes were full of tenderness, and he said, "Okay!"

Mu Yanran was furious. These two people were stealing her limelight the whole time!

Those who knew Chu Xingluo found it incredible that Prince Jing, who was usually cold and stern, actually had such a gentle side.

Chu Xingluo carried Xia Taoyuan on his back and walked beside Chu Xingyue and Mu Yanran. They soon arrived in front of the emperor. Chu Xingluo gently put Xia Taoyuan down, and several people knelt down to pay their respects to the emperor and empress.

The emperor stroked his beard and laughed, "Although it is a little unpleasant, I am very pleased to see that you two are in love with each other. Get up now."

Mu Yanran felt very uncomfortable. When the emperor spoke, he was looking at Wei Zhiying and Chu Xingluo, and what he said was also for them to hear. After all, she and Chu Xingyue had no communication from beginning to end, and they didn't even hold hands, so there was no question of mutual affection. If she had known this, she should have held Chu Xingyue's hand and acted more intimate with him.

However, she felt better when she thought that her own mother-in-law was the queen, and the queen was her aunt, and that she would definitely not suffer any loss in the future.

The ceremonial officer said a few more words of congratulation, and the two prime ministers also came forward to pay their respects to the emperor. Emperor Ying said, "My dear ministers, please don't be polite. From now on, I and you two will not only be monarchs and subjects, but also relatives. I am very happy. I will speed up the process of finding someone to choose a good day for my two sons to get married. You all may take your seats."

Xia Taoyuan and Chu Xingluo returned to Madam Wei's table. Lu Qing'er said with a smile, "Your Highness Prince Jing, please treat Zhiying well in the future." Chu Xingluo smiled and nodded.

Madam Lu tapped Lu Qing'er's forehead and scolded her with a smile, "Girl, do I need you to remind me? Don't you see how deeply in love Prince Jing is with Zhiying?"

Madam Wei also smiled and said, "Prince Jing treats Zhiying very well. The Prime Minister and I are very satisfied."

At this time, Long Yan came over and Chu Xingluo followed Long Yan.

"The emperor has ordered that all guests present please eat, drink and have fun." Liu Gonggong's loud voice suddenly sounded. Then there was a melodious sound of piano, and several dancers appeared in the aisle between the guests, and cheers rang out among the guests.

At this time, the palace maids and eunuchs had already started serving wine and food. Everyone ate and drank to their heart's content, and the atmosphere was very lively.

Lu Qing'er suddenly whispered in Xia Taoyuan's ear: "Why does Qi Nanfeng always look at you?"

Xia Taoyuan was startled. She looked towards Qi Nanfeng's table and met his eyes, which contained too many emotions. When he found that she was looking at him, Qi Nanfeng smiled faintly. Xia Taoyuan turned her head and said a few vague words to Lu Qing'er to get over it. She couldn't say anything because she didn't want others to misunderstand her.

After a while of eating and drinking, some of the guests left the palace, while others gathered together to talk about something. Lu Qing'er and General Lu's wife returned home. Mrs. Wei knew that Xia Taoyuan and Prince Jing were going to the palace, so she asked Wei Jinghe to accompany her to wait for Prince Jing.

Xia Taoyuan and Wei Jinghe talked about Lu Qing'er, urging him to report to his parents and find a chance to propose marriage to the general's mansion. The brother and sister were talking and laughing when they were suddenly attracted by the noise next to them.

"It would be fine if you didn't help Qianqian, but why are you speaking for that Wei Zhiying?" Mu Yanran said to Mu Yun dissatisfiedly.

"Yanran, forget it. Brother Mu doesn't know what happened, so don't blame him." Zhang Qianqian said in a low voice.

Xia Taoyuan and Wei Jinghe watched from afar, only to hear Mu Yun coldly say: "Yanran, stop messing around. Miss Zhang maliciously slandered Miss Wei, and she herself admitted it. This is because Miss Wei is generous and will not pursue it. If Miss Wei insists on it, in serious cases, Zhang Wei will not even be able to be the Minister of State!"

These words made Mu Yanran shut up. She was not actually dissatisfied with her brother for not speaking up for Zhang Qianqian. She was dissatisfied with Wei Zhiying for stealing her limelight. She was obviously much prettier than Wei Zhiying, and she had dressed up carefully for the engagement party, but no one noticed her during the entire engagement party, so she took her anger out on her brother.

"Hahaha, brother, look at the flowers in the imperial garden, they are so beautiful." Xia Taoyuan's voice was loud. Mu Yanran and others looked at her. Mu Yun and Qi Nanfeng also looked over. Not only did they look over, they also walked over with smiles on their faces.

Mu Yanran was furious when she saw her brother approaching Wei Zhiying, but she didn't want to lose her composure in front of Wei Zhiying, so she tried her best to restrain herself. Fang Muyao looked cold, and Zhang Qianqian's eyes were full of resentment. This time she learned her lesson and didn't dare to yell. She gritted her teeth and said in a very small voice, "You still blame me for saying that she is a bitch!"

Her voice was very low, so Xia Taoyuan didn't hear it. However, Qi Nanfeng, Mu Yun and Wei Jinghe had all practiced and their hearing was much more sensitive than that of ordinary people. All three of them heard it. Wei Jinghe didn't want Xia Taoyuan to get angry, so he winked at the two of them, but no one said anything.

Wei Jinghe exchanged a few pleasantries with the two. Qi Nanfeng's eyes never left Xia Taoyuan. How could Xia Taoyuan not notice this? She glared at Qi Nanfeng fiercely and asked Wei Jinghe, "Brother, do you know these two people?"

"Of course I know him. I've known him for many years." Wei Jinghe said with a smile and gave Mu Yun a meaningful look.

"Oh, then you guys chat, I'll go sit over there for a while." As he said that, Xia Taoyuan walked a few meters away and sat on a stone pier.

Qi Nanfeng chuckled and started chatting with Mu Yun and Wei Jinghe. Mu Yanran wanted to go find King Xuan, but Zhang Qianqian and Fang Muyao didn't mean to leave. Mu Yanran was about to get rid of them and left alone.
