Chapter 46 Does the Queen Have a Ghost?
Chen Kang and Murong Qing, as the most powerful heirs of the two families of the Zhou Dynasty, were married by the emperor. However, the two of them are not young. The emperor did not mention the marriage for a long time. Today, the queen suddenly mentioned it. Chen Kang and Murong Changtian felt a little strange. Before the two of them could figure it out, the queen suddenly suggested giving Zhou Xiong's third princess, Pingyi, to Chen Kang. If there is nothing about Murong Wan, it will be a good thing for the Chen family, but?
However, Murong Changtian and Chen Jialuo looked at each other and breathed a secret sigh of relief. Fortunately, they took the lead. If Murong Wan and Chen Kang were lovers, I'm afraid they would not have a chance to stay together again in this life.
Of course, the most anxious among several people is Chen Kang. He was originally a clever boy, but now he blushed in panic and couldn't say clearly: "I, I thank you for your love, but..."
"Your Majesty, look, Kang'er is still shy!" The queen laughed.
"Haha-" Zhou Xiong heard this and said with a smile, "I also like Kang'er, but I'm afraid that Brother Chen will be reluctant to give up, so I haven't mentioned it. Today, the queen proposed that I really think Kang'er and Princess Gu Napingyi are very compatible!"
As soon as this came out, Murong Changtian and Chen Kang were worried.
The two quickly knelt on the ground and told the truth: "I have something to report!"
Chen Kang saw that the two fathers had come forward, and then he calmed down a little and secretly looked at Murong Qing.
"Oh?" Zhou Xiong accepted the laughter, stared at the two people kneeling on the ground and asked, "I don't know what's important for you two virtuous brothers? Get up and talk!"
"Yes!" The two answered and stood up. Chen Jialuo approached Zhou Xiong and said respectfully, "I am preparing to find an opportunity to ask the emperor for this matter."
"What's the matter?"
The queen also came forward at the right time and said suspiciously, "Isn't this related to Kang'er?"
"The emperor and queen!" Chen Jialuo arched his hand and blessed the two before saying, "The emperor and queen carried her love and looked at Kang'er. It was originally Kang'er's blessing, but yesterday the minister and Brother Murong made a marriage..."
Before Chen Jialuo finished speaking, the queen understood and blamed herself, "Oh! Your Majesty, it's my concubine's fault for being anxious about this matter. If you had understood the matter earlier, you wouldn't have let the emperor..." Speaking of this, the queen stopped her voice and looked around.
If the queen didn't finish her words, didn't that mean that the emperor would lose face in front of everyone? Zhou Xiong didn't know that although the ministers who followed him did not say anything, the conversation with them was also heard clearly. Zhou Xiong personally gave the marriage, and he was still his own princess, but they declined. Of course, this made Zhou Xiong uncomfortable, and his face looked bad in an instant.
Seeing this, the queen hurriedly smiled and whispered in Zhou Xiong's ear, "Your Majesty, where is Qing'er?"
Zhou Xiong stared at the queen and said to Chen Jialuo and Murong Changtian with a smile, "This is a good thing! Congratulations to the two virtuous brothers! I don't know if the date has been set. On that day, I will definitely marry Kang'er in person!"
"I thank you for your kindness!" Murong Changtian and Chen Jialuo also noticed the displeasure on Zhou Xiong's face, but the marriage finally came to an end. However, judging from the queen's attitude towards Murong Qing and Chen Kang just now, Chen Kang escaped smoothly, but what about Murong Qing? Murong Changtian was still worried, but Zhou Xiong did not mention this matter again. He turned around and suddenly asked, "Brother Murong Xian, why didn't you see Nalan?"
Murong Changtian turned around and looked at Murong Qing. Murong Qing shook his head slightly. Murong Changtian stepped forward and explained to Zhou Xiong, "Nalan is in the inner courtyard. Maybe it's a matter of the banquet. I will ask him to invite him immediately!" After saying that, he waved to Murong Qing.
"A few days ago, I heard that Princess Nalan was not in good shape, and she didn't even move around in the palace. Is it better now?" Send someone to invite Princess Murong, don't you need Murong Qing to go in person? The emperor may not know anything about Nalan, but the queen has heard a little about it. She glanced at Murong Changtian and deliberately asked.
"Yes, Nalan has been well recently?" Princess Nalan has always been Zhou Xiong's favorite. A few days ago, Murong's house said that she was sick. However, he sent the imperial doctor to visit the palace several times, but he was rejected by Murong Changtian, saying that he meant Nalan, but he also had many doubts about this matter.
"It's okay to be remembered by the emperor!" When it comes to Nalan, Murong Changtian can't help but be disgusted, and his tone of reply is colder.
"Real?" Zhou Xiong asked.
"Your Majesty, please take your seat!" With that, he had walked to the hall of the main courtyard, and Chen Jialuo came forward in time to relieve Murong Changtian.
Originally, Chen Jialuo went to the Murong Palace first, and Zhou Xiong had doubts. Later, Chen Kang's matter came out. Zhou Xiong became even more suspicious of the two people. Now when it comes to Nalan, the two are even more secret. Zhou Xiong was originally suspicious, and now he is secretly wary of the two people in his heart. However, at this time, the ministers of the court were all there, so he stepped into the hall, walked to the main seat in the middle and sat down. The queen sat on the left side of Zhou Xiong. The woman brought her, standing quietly behind the two people.
Chen Jialuo and Murong Changtian sat on the upper part of the lower head, one left and one right. The ministers lined up in turn and sat down on both sides.
At this time, Murong Qing invited Princess Nalan to come out.
Nalan was dressed in a wedding robe with a big red golden phoenix. She came gracefully. When she approached Zhou Xiong, she saluted and said, "My sister Nalan, please say good to the emperor and the queen!"
As soon as Zhou Xiong raised her hand, the queen got up from her seat, walked over, and personally stood up with Princess Nalan: "Sister Nalan, there is no need to be courteous!" After holding Nalan's hand, the queen smiled and said, "Today is a good day for my sister. I'm here to congratulate my sister first!"
"Thank you, Queen!" Nalan raised his head slightly.
"Oh! Sister Nalan, I haven't seen you for a few days. Why have you lost so much weight? The queen suddenly said in shock and stared at Zhou Xiong and Murong Changtian as she spoke. When Murong Qing heard the words, his nerves were also tight. Chen Kangwei pulled him to sit next to him.
The queen's question really attracted Zhou Xiong's attention. She leaned forward slightly, frowned and asked, "Nalan, let the royal brother have a look."
As soon as Zhou Xiong spoke, the queen took Princess Nalan and walked to Zhou Xiong: "Your Majesty, look, your sister has really lost a lot of weight?" With that, he stared at Murong Changtian. Murong Changtian's face was slightly pale at this time, his eyebrows frowned, but his eyes stared at Nalan sharply. The queen's eyes turned around and said with a smile, "Isn't it that Prince Murong treated his sister badly?"
This is obviously a joke, but it is actually a reproach!
Can Murong Changtian not hear it? Can't everyone in the hall hear it?
Murong Changtian only felt the inquiry and accountability eyes from all directions. As soon as he got up, he was about to speak, but Princess Nalan smiled softly and said, "How could the prince treat me badly? It's just that he has been busy with Luo'er's marriage recently and is a little tired, but this man is thinner and feels much better!"
Murong Changtian looked at Princess Nalan in disbelief, and saw that she was also staring at him at this moment. She nodded gently to him with a smile, and then turned her face and asked Zhou Xiong, "My sister has been busy with Luo'er's affairs recently, but she hasn't gone to the palace. What's brother been recently?"
"Nalan sat next to the royal brother. We haven't seen each other for many days, so we can talk!" Zhou Xiong saw Nalan's secret nod to Murong Changtian just now. I just thought that Nalan was because of many guests, so it was inconvenient to explain the truth to the public. After thinking about it, today is Murong Luo's happy day. It is natural for Nalan to help Murong Changtian for the sake of the overall situation. However, Nalan's thinness and the fact that he didn't go to the palace a few days ago because of his recuperation, how can he not doubt it? Just waved to let Nalan sit next to him, so that he could secretly ask about the situation.
"Yes!" Nalan didn't refuse either.
The queen took Nalan to the right-hand seat and sat down before returning to her seat.
The queen gave a cold glance when she passed by her, and her eyes were clearly provocative and proud. Why? Why did the queen suddenly care about herself and make trouble several times since she entered the house? How can Murong Changtian figure it out? He looked at the three people in the upper seat and turned around to see Chen Jialuo secretly shaking his head at him before sitting back on the couch.
Chen Kang and Murong Qing also secretly paid attention to the few people above. Although the ministers had doubts, they did not dare to make a sound at will, but just whispered.
At this time, someone in the yard shouted, "The bride and groom enter the house!"
