Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 1953

Tang Chujun originally did not want to hold a grand wedding for the retired emperor. She never liked publicity, and she did not want to disturb the court because of her own affairs.

According to Tang Chujun's original intention, since it was the remarriage of the retired emperor, the ceremony should be carried out simply according to the ancestral system.

The new emperor had just ascended the throne, and the six palaces were still empty. If there was a big fuss about the marriage of the retired emperor, it would seem inappropriate and would cause people all over the world to talk about it.

Xiao Yunde knew that what Tang Chujun was really worried about was that his second marriage would cause him to be criticized. He was the one who insisted on doing it. He said, "I gave my first half of my life to the country. I will give you my second half of my life."

When you like someone, you can't hide your feelings and you wish the whole world knew about it.

How many pairs of eyes were staring at them. Ever since he announced that he was going to marry Tang Chujun, the discussions had never stopped.

Some people said that Tang Chujun was using his daughter to marry into a wealthy family, while others said that Tang Chujun, as a second bride, was not worthy of the emperor. In short, this marriage received mixed reviews.

Because of this, Xiao Yunde not only wanted to do it, but also wanted to do it in a grand manner.

He ordered the Shangfu Bureau to review the previous dynasty's ceremonies overnight and reject the old system of "relegating a wife to a lower rank". The lights in the embroidery workshop stayed on all night, and the gold and silver needles shuttled across the silk, weaving an unquestionable declaration.

But no matter what, this is still a sequel.

The phoenix feathers on the dress were deliberately shortened, and the eyes of the Zhai bird were replaced with dark green silk threads. Many similar subtle changes were the final insistence of the Ministry of Rites.

After the dress was embroidered, the clothing bureau sent it to the young master's residence for Tang Chujun to try on the size.

The incident happened that day. Xiao Yunde was also present, but after receiving the urgent report, he returned to the palace to handle government affairs.

Tang Chujun was protected by secret guards and was led by Long Jiang himself, so the situation should have been foolproof. However, he suddenly disappeared inexplicably.

When Yao Sheng came back from the farm to look for her after checking the accounts, an unconscious and tied-up embroiderer was lying in the room.

Nanny Zhong always thought that her master was tired and sleeping in the tent, so she didn't dare to disturb him and missed the best opportunity to track him.

By the time the news reached Xiao Yunde, Long Jiang and his men had already searched almost the entire capital, and the palace's clothing bureau was the focus of the investigation, but there was no clue at all.

Xiao Yunde had a bad year this year.

Outside, lights flickered. The lantern festival in the capital was much more lively than that in Lingzhou, but the Qingshou Palace was still deserted.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Emperor Zhaowu brought a piece of news that the one who caused Tang Chujun's disappearance was the Qingtian Ding who was killed and destroyed that year.

Resurrection? No, it's just the remnants seeking revenge.

"He is an adopted son of the head of the Qingtianding family." Emperor Zhaowu's eyes were bloodshot, and it was obvious that he had not been able to sleep.

"Has he been caught?" Xiao Yunde stood up suddenly, "Where is Chu Jun? Has he been found?"

Emperor Zhaowu was silent for a moment before saying, "We caught him, but he bit the poison hidden in his teeth and died." He paused, "We still haven't found Madam Tang."

Xiao Yunde went to check the man's body but found nothing.

His heart was pounding with fear, and his forehead and eyebrows were swollen and painful.

Another tormenting day.

Emperor Zhaowu consoled him, "Don't worry, Madam Tang should be fine. I will continue to find someone to investigate thoroughly."

"Don't make a big fuss and alarm the powerful families." Xiao Yunde reminded, "The safety of Lord Chu is the top priority."

"I understand," Emperor Zhaowu replied gravely. He turned and walked out. As he reached the door, he remembered something and turned back. "Father, I have ordered someone to stop the spread of Madam Tang's disappearance... I was thinking that with the recent death of my husband, my younger sister is already having a hard time raising three children in Lingzhou."

Xiao Yunde's eyes turned dark and he was silent for a moment before he said, "You did a good job. It was my fault for not considering it carefully."
