Weng Yan, who was sitting on a chair in the Lizheng Hall, heard Xiao Wu praising his legitimate daughter.

The smile on Weng Yan's face showed that he recognized Weng Ruoyun from the bottom of his heart, so he bowed and spoke to Xiao Wu in a humble manner.

"Your Highness, you are too kind. How can my daughter's appearance be described as so stunning that it can make fishes sink to the bottom of their bodies, geese drop to the ground, or the moon hide in shame on flowers?"

I heard that the man standing behind Xiao Wu, wearing a purple robe embroidered with tigers, was An Shaohua, the second son of Left Prime Minister An Huairen.

Although An Shaohua looked young, he exuded a rebellious and high-spirited air.

An Shaohua looked like a naturally proud general. He behaved politely and praised Weng Ruoyun in a courteous manner.

"I am An Shaohua, the Marquis of Dingbei. Today I have the rare opportunity to see the Empress's beautiful face. The Empress is truly noble and elegant, with a stunning appearance. She is quite like a mother of the country."

As soon as An Shaohua finished speaking, a man wearing a red official robe embroidered with cranes and a black gauze hat appeared. It was the right prime minister Liu Zheng.

Right Prime Minister Liu Zheng was in his fifties and his words and actions seemed to be trying hard to please. He subconsciously stroked the palm-width and finger-long beard above his chin.

Liu Zheng looked at the haggard Weng Ruoyun and praised her without daring to say anything rude. "

"I am the Right Prime Minister Liu Zheng. Your Majesty is truly a beauty, and it would be a blessing for the country if you could marry your Majesty."

After hearing this, Empress Dowager Xiao Qingyi was very happy and smiled happily. She stood up and walked towards Man Weng Ruoyun.

Empress Dowager Xiao Qingyi wore a purple phoenix robe with a pattern of birds paying homage to the phoenix, and her bun was adorned with jade and gold hairpins, showing her dignity and kindness.

Empress Dowager Xiao Qingyi gently held Weng Ruoyun's hand, and her words were full of concern.

"Ruoyun, look how much they praise you. You've been tired from serving Yan'er these past few days. Go back to the provincial government and rest for a few days. After a few days, let Yan'er lead a few court officials to the provincial government to pick up the bride."

When Weng Ruoyun heard what the Empress Dowager said, she looked incredulous and asked the Empress Dowager

"Grandmother, are you really going to let the ministers and Your Majesty go to the provincial capital to pick up the bride?"

"My Queen, I will definitely go to pick you up on your behalf."

Xiao Wu, who was of upright character, spoke first.

This made Weng Ruoyun feel unprecedentedly surprised. She was a little worried but still expressed her gratitude with a smile.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"How can a queen return a gift to a prince?"

When Qin Yan saw Weng Ruoyun thanking Xiao Wu gently, he quickly reached out and held her hand in his, his eyes full of tenderness and patience as he reminded her.

"How can a queen bow to a prince? The queen is not feeling well. Please go to the bedroom to rest first. I will come later."

Weng Ruoyun was treated tenderly by Qin Yan, and she felt indescribably happy.

Qin Yan gently put his arms around Weng Ruoyun's slender waist, his tone firm and gentle.

"Empress, what the Imperial Grandmother said is right. I will take the court officials to the provincial government to pick up the bride."

Even Weng Ruoyun herself did not expect that she would get married with Qin Yan so soon?

Weng Ruoyun suddenly became nervous and afraid of marriage. Could it be that she would be trapped in the deep palace and die of old age so soon?

[No, before Qin Yan accepts me, I cannot enter the palace as Weng Ruoyun.]

Weng Ruoyun's mind was racing with thoughts, and she hadn't yet figured out how to delay.

Then he heard Qin Yan solemnly swearing and making a promise to Weng Ruoyun.

"Empress, on the wedding day, I will personally lead all the civil and military officials to the provincial government to welcome the bride."

Qin Yan's words were not very frightening, but Weng Ruoyun broke out in a cold sweat for no reason.

Weng Ruoyun looked at Dongfang Li who was sitting on the chair in Lizheng Hall, and kept blinking to indicate that he should find a way for her.

When Weng Yan saw Weng Ruoyun's eyes, he kept looking at Dongfang Li and winking.

Weng Yan was afraid that something might happen, so he discussed the matter with Dongfang Li.

"Master, Master, could you please calculate if there is a good day for marriage soon?"

Hearing what Weng Yan asked, Dongfang Li noticed that Weng Ruoyun was looking at him, as if hinting at something?

Dongfang Li quickly collected his thoughts, counted with his fingers, and then told Weng Yan.

"Sir, your daughter's birthday is the first day of December. After your fifteenth birthday, you can get married on the sixth day of December."

After Dongfang Li finished speaking, he counted with his fingers again and continued talking to Weng Yan.

"The sixth day of the twelfth month is close to the end of the year. It is the day when the gods of joy gather together. It is an auspicious day. Today is the second day of the twelfth month, so we need to prepare for the wedding of my daughter in a hurry."

When Weng Ruoyun heard Dongfang Li's calculation of an auspicious date for marriage, she was struck by lightning and almost fainted.

Weng Ruo was a little panicked and scared: [How come Weng Yan's legitimate daughter is only fifteen years old?]

Weng Ruoyun didn't want to enter the palace with this 27-year-old face that looked exactly like the 15-year-old Weng Ruoyun.

Weng Ruoyun suddenly felt guilty and quickly waved his hand to refuse.

"Dad, I can't enter the palace. My crush is the Imperial Master. I can't enter the palace. I absolutely can't enter the palace!"

Weng Ruoyun didn't want to enter the palace as Weng Ruoyun's replacement, not to mention that Weng Ruoyun was only fifteen years old!

Weng Ruoyun waved her hand, took Dongfang Li as an excuse, and ran out of the palace where it was snowing heavily.

"Dongfang Li, can you please take me away?"

Weng Ruoyun pulled Dongfang Li and ran in the heavy snow, and they had just run a short distance out of Xuanwu Gate.

Dongfang Li covered his chest, exhausted, and fell to his knees in the snow.

"Run quickly? Is Dongfang Li going to die from you?"

When Weng Ruoyun saw Dongfang Li, she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood on the snow and fainted instantly.

Weng Ruoyun used all her strength to help Dongfang Li up, but after taking a few steps, she felt abdominal pain and discomfort.

Weng Ruoyun could hardly move while dragging Dongfang Li and almost fainted in the snow.

When Weng Ruoyun was about to faint, Qin Yan hurried over with the imperial guards and Weng Yan.

Qin Yan rushed forward like an arrow and hugged Weng Ruoyun in his arms. Dongfang Li was also helped back to the palace by the imperial guards.

After Qin Yan carried Weng Ruoyun back to Lizheng Palace, he asked the imperial physician to check her pulse for fear that she might have caught a cold!

"Imperial Physician, is the Queen seriously ill? The Queen is afraid of suffering, so you cannot prescribe any medicine."

Qin Yan recalled that Weng Ruoyun was allergic to medicine, and hurriedly asked the imperial physician if she was seriously ill.

Qin Xun thought that Weng Ruoyun was afraid of suffering, so he did not recommend the imperial physician to prescribe medicine.

After the imperial physician examined Weng Ruoyun's pulse, he sighed.

The imperial physician thought about it carefully and decided to conceal the fact that Weng Ruoyun was pregnant.

[Is this a sign of pregnancy? If the dragon heir still needs to rest, please don’t tell His Majesty.]

"Your Majesty, the Queen is fine. If she is upset, she should return to the provincial capital to rest."

After hearing the report from the imperial physician, Qin Yan waved his hand and asked everyone in Lizheng Hall to leave first.

After everyone in Lizheng Hall left, Qin Yan stood in front of the phoenix couch and was a little worried about Weng Ruoyun!

Qin Yan looked at Weng Ruoyun who was unconscious on the phoenix couch. He wanted to reach out and touch her face but hesitated.

Qin Yan felt too sorry for Weng Ruoyun and wanted to hold her in his arms, but she said she liked Dongfang Li!

Qin Yan was in agony as he watched Weng Ruoyun fall unconscious!

However, because Dongfang Li was his cousin, he did not dare to rashly contact Weng Ruoyun, whom he had once doted on.

Qin Yan turned his back to Weng Ruoyun and asked her one last question in a serious tone.

"Tell me, what is your name?"

Qin Yan's tone was as cold as three feet of ice, and he was surrounded by a murderous aura that wanted to kill people.

As soon as Qin Yan finished speaking, Weng Ruoyun gradually came to her senses. After hearing what he asked, she thought the truth was revealed.

Weng Ruoyun hurriedly stood up and told Qin Yan her name again without hiding anything.

"My name is Weng Ruoyun."

Qin Yan looked at Weng Ruoyun's serious words and asked her again as if he had lost patience?

"Didn't you say that you are not Weng Ruoyun?"

When Weng Ruoyun heard Qin Yan's train of thought, she was speechless for a moment!

Weng Ruoyun stood up from the couch in anger and said it to Qin Yan again in a haughty tone.

"Qin Yan, you don't understand what I'm saying, right? My name is Weng Ruoyun, my name is Weng Ruoyun, I will never change my last name, I will always be called Weng Ruoyun."

When Qin Yan heard Weng Ruoyun's response, he wondered if she had gone insane.

[Isn’t the provincial governor’s legitimate daughter Weng Ruoyun?]

When Qin Yan heard Weng Ruoyun swearing at him, he became so angry that he could no longer bear it and grabbed her neck.

There was murderous intent in Qin Yan's eyes, and he warned Weng Ruoyun in an oppressive tone.

"Swear less and read more. From tomorrow on, you will be confined to the provincial government. You can come out again when you can speak well!"
