Dragon and phoenix, red candles, phoenix crown and bridal robe.

Lu Huaizhen was wearing a bright red outfit today, which made her face look as white as jade. He walked to the table, picked up the wine glass on the table, walked over, and handed the one in his left hand to her.

Today is the wedding night. Bai Youyou took the wine glass and her cheeks suddenly felt hot. "You are not in good health. How about... rest for a year?"

She is not yet eighteen, and although she is old enough to get married in this era, she still feels a little awkward.

Lu Huaizhen saw her embarrassment, pursed his lips and smiled softly, "I'll do as you say."

There is no empress dowager in the harem, only Bai Youyou is the master.

The emperor and empress were about to get married, and there were some short-sighted people who advised the emperor to take in more concubines at this time.

Before the Duke of Zhenguo took action, Xu Lingyun was the first to stand up and silenced them.

Bai Youyou's days in the palace gradually became stable.

While she was taking care of the affairs of the harem, she also helped Lu Huaizhen deal with the government affairs. Lu Huaizhen tried his best to stabilize the situation in the court and give Bai Youyou more time and space.

The people in Yongning Marquis' Mansion regretted their decision so much that they all came forward with generous gifts to curry favor with Lu.

Huang Shanshan followed behind Bai Yanmei, with a hint of fear and regret in her eyes.

She went to find Bai Luochuan and told him that she was deceived by Prince Rui, but unfortunately Bai Luochuan didn't believe her at all.

Now, her father wanted to marry her to a poor scholar. If she couldn't get forgiveness this time, her life would be completely ruined!

Bai Yanmei's men didn't know what she had done yet, and pushed her, "Shanshan, aren't you very close to Luochuan? Go talk to the doorman and ask him to tell your second aunt."

Bai Yanlang also urged: "Yes, Shanshan, you have such a good relationship with Luochuan, if you go and plead for us, they will definitely let us in."

In the past, no matter how bad the situation was in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, Old Mrs. Qiao never showed up. Today, she wore new clothes and was supported by Nanny Huang as she stood in front of the door of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion for an hour.

At this moment, she could hardly maintain the smile on her face.

Bai Youyou has become the queen, and the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion is safe for a hundred years. They are now common people, and they can only hope that the Lu family will take into account their friendship and help them.

As long as Lu can forgive them, they will have a chance to turn things around, otherwise...

Huang Shanshan walked forward nervously and was about to speak when Lu Chen stopped in front of the door on his horse.

These people have been coming here every day since Bai Youyou became the queen. He frowned and said, "If you come to provoke me again, don't blame me for sending people to beat you out!"

They have already divorced, these people are so shameless.

Bai Yanlang smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm here to find your aunt and apologize to her. I was wrong in the past. Please let us in to see your aunt and give us a chance to admit our mistakes in person."

"Admit your mistake?!"

Lu Chen sneered, his eyes swept across their faces, and finally settled on Huang Shanshan, who was clutching her handkerchief with a stiff smile, "You colluded with Prince Rui and intended to frame my Zhenguo Mansion for colluding with foreign enemies. We have not yet settled the matter with you, and you dare to come to my house again!"

"what?"

Bai Yanmei opened her eyes, a little confused, "When did my daughter Shanshan do such a thing? Young Master Lu, did you misunderstand?"

"Humph, is it a misunderstanding? Why don't you ask her yourself!"

After Lu Chen finished speaking, he turned around and walked into the mansion.

Huang Shanshan's face was pale and she was surrounded by Bai Yanlang and others.

"Shanshan, is what Lu Qi just said true?"

"You wouldn't really do such a thing, would you?"

"When did you get involved with Prince Rui?"

Everyone was chattering, Huang Shanshan's temples were throbbing and she almost fainted on the spot.

Seeing her pursed her lips and didn't explain, how could Old Mrs. Qiao not know? Her face was as dark as water, "Shanshan, did you really do such a stupid thing?"

Originally, seeing that this granddaughter had close contacts with Luochuan, they thought that they could use her relationship with Luochuan to ease the relationship between them and the Lu family, but they did not expect that she would do such a thing.

Before Old Mrs. Qiao could get angry, Lord Huang and his men came quickly.

He pushed through the crowd, dragged Huang Shanshan away and said, "You bitch, you really killed me! Hurry up and go back and get married, and stop causing trouble for the rest of the Huang family!"

"Dad, I don't want to marry Mr. Jiang!!"

Huang Shanshan was horrified.

Mr. Jiang is now 27 years old, his family is extremely poor, and he is a widower with three children. How could she marry such a man? !

"Master, what are you doing? She is your daughter! How can she marry a poor scholar?"

Bai Yanmei panicked. She stepped forward and grabbed Mr. Huang's sleeve, "Are you going to destroy her?"

"I destroyed her?"

Master Huang pulled back his sleeves and glared at her with hatred, "She ruined herself by her own evil deeds!"

They colluded with Prince Rui and used Bai Luochuan to frame the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, but ended up implicating their Huang family!

Mr. Huang was too lazy to say more to them and asked the servants to take Huang Jiayuan back as well.

Bai Yanmei wanted to go back with him, but he stopped her by scolding her: "You don't have to go back. I have already sent a letter of divorce to your Bai Mansion. You can stay with the Bai family now!"

"No!! You can't do this to me!!"

"It's because I married a stupid woman like you that I ended up like this!"

Mr. Huang forced his two children onto the carriage and drove away so quickly that even Bai Yanlang and Old Mrs. Qiao had no time to react.

Bai Yanmei's shrill cries alarmed the people around, and many people stopped and pointed at them.

What happened here soon reached Bai Youyou's ears. In response, she just raised her eyebrows and stopped asking questions.

Compared to killing Huang Shanshan, letting her marry a man with no future and a mediocre life would be worse than death.

Bai Youyou sat under the eaves and took a sip of tea. "What about the one in the cold palace? Is he dead?"

Lu Qi shook his head. "As you wish, I will cut him once a day and then use medicine to keep him alive to ensure that he will not die before being cut into pieces."

Bai Youyou asked her about some things outside the palace, and a palace maid came to report that Lord Xu wanted to see her.

"Please come in quickly!"

As soon as Xu Lingyun came in, he was about to bow, but Bai Youyou stopped him with a hand, "Uncle Xu, you and I are becoming more and more distant."

"The etiquette cannot be abolished."

Xu Lingyun said with a smile.

Bai Youyou thought that he came to see her for business, so she asked Xiaoju to serve some tea and wait for further instructions. However, Xu Lingyun lowered his eyes, looking a little embarrassed.

"Uncle Xu, if you have anything to say, just speak up."

Bai Youyou was a trustworthy person. When she saw him being so shy for the first time, she suddenly became curious.

"It's just...about me and your mother..."

Xu Lingyun took a deep breath and said, "I like your mother. I have told the old lady of the Zhenguogong about this matter. They asked me to ask you what you think."

"Have you asked my mother?"

Talking about this with a younger generation, Xu Lingyun felt a little embarrassed. "I went to see your grandfather and grandmother yesterday, and they asked your mother's opinion. If your mother didn't agree, I wouldn't be here today."

"Then congratulations, Uncle Xu, you finally got the beauty."

Having known each other for such a long time, Bai Youyou trusted his character and did not tell him to treat Lu well. Bai Youyou joked, "You and my mother should work hard to give me another brother or sister."

"You girl."

Xu Lingyun blushed at her words and glared at her, "You're already the queen, but you're still so out of touch."

"Isn't that right in front of you?" Bai Youyou laughed, "Whether I am the queen or not, you are still my Uncle Xu."

Xu Lingyun felt warm at heart after hearing these words. He stood up and said, "Since you agree, I will go back and prepare three matchmakers, six betrothal gifts, and eight sedan chair bearers."
