After Liu Mingzhi finished speaking, Qi Yun, the mistress of the palace, immediately led the crowd toward Qinzheng Hall in a dignified manner.
Liu Mingzhi watched the crowd walking towards the Qinzheng Hall. He found the silhouette of the third princess Li Yan in the crowd and hurriedly chased after her.
"Yan'er, come with me as my husband."
The third princess turned to look at her husband and nodded gently. She quietly left the group and followed her husband towards the pillars on the left side of the Qinzheng Hall.
The third princess Li Yan looked around and said softly to Liu Mingzhi: "Husband, you want to ask my mother if she has agreed to attend Chengzhi's wedding banquet, right?"
Liu Mingzhi nodded silently: "Yes, there were too many people just now, so it was inconvenient for my husband to ask you, how are you? How did your mother respond after you took Chengzhi to visit her? Did her mother agree to attend Chengzhi? The wedding banquet with girl Jingyao?”
The third princess looked at her husband's hesitant eyes that were filled with anticipation and nervousness. She nodded and shook her head with a complicated face.
Liu Mingzhi's face was stunned, and he looked at the complicated look on the third princess's face with confusion.
"No, Yan'er, what do you mean by nodding and shaking your head?
My husband really doesn’t understand what it means. This... did the queen mother agree to attend or did she not agree to attend? "
"Oh, husband, the Queen Mother did not agree immediately, but she also did not directly deny it. She just told me that she should think about it carefully before making a decision.
As for whether she will come out of Fu'an Palace today to attend the wedding banquet of Chengzhi and Jingyao, I can't guarantee it.
So I can only nod and shake my head, because I can't give you an accurate answer. "
Seeing the helpless look on the third princess's face, Mr. Liu nodded in understanding. He held his chin with his hand and pondered for a moment with a solemn gaze.
"Listening to what you said, it seems that the Queen Mother's answer is very ambiguous!
This is difficult to handle, and the husband now doesn't know whether he should announce that his mother will also attend Chengzhi's wedding banquet.
If the queen mother shows up on time after the announcement of her husband, it will naturally be a great thing to be happy. However, if the queen mother cannot come as scheduled, she will have to face all the civil and military officials of the court and the guests with many relatives and friends. I can’t get off the stage.
However, it seems inappropriate to just ignore the Queen Mother. After all, we have even invited some of the mothers and concubines who are currently living in the clan’s mansion and were very fond of Yan’er, but we have invited the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, to If you ignore it, your husband will also be unable to step down when the time comes.
It’s difficult, it’s really difficult! My husband’s current situation can be described as a dilemma! "
The third princess Li Yan's heart sank when she saw the depressed expression on Young Master Liu's face. She silently grabbed her husband's palm and patted it a few times, pushing her lips towards the harem.
"Husband, don't worry about it yet. It will take about half an hour before the bells start ringing to welcome guests. There will still be at least an hour and a half until the civil and military officials of the DPRK and all relatives and friends enter the palace after being inspected by the Forbidden Army officers.
During this period of time, I will help you to invite the queen mother out of Fu'an Palace to attend Chengzhi's wedding banquet.
You go to entertain the distinguished guests in the palace first, and I will leave immediately to visit the queen mother in the harem. "
Liu Mingzhi looked at the third princess Li Yan who turned around and was about to walk towards Fu'an Palace without saying a word, and hurriedly grabbed the beauty's wrist.
"Husband?"
"My husband will go with you. There is strength in numbers. It is better for us as husband and wife to go together than for you to go alone. You will be more confident."
The third princess nodded with emotion in her phoenix eyes, but glanced hesitantly at the Qinzheng Hall on the side.
"What about the distinguished guests in the palace?"
"It shouldn't be a problem if Yun'er is here. Even if things don't work out, the old man will be there to help. Anyway, it shouldn't be a problem since there are no outsiders."
"Okay, let's go there quickly."
Liu Mingzhi and his wife walked through the corridor and hurriedly arrived at the gate of Fu'an Palace in the harem.
"Husband, shall I... go in first?"
Young Master Liu looked at Sangong, worried that he might have a grudge, and nodded with a faint smile: "Go, my husband's side will be fine."
"Yes! I will definitely try my best to persuade my mother."
Watching the beautiful figure of the third princess walking into the gate of Fu'an Palace, Mr. Liu habitually walked towards the pavilion more than 20 steps away.
Sitting on the stone bench and silently shaking the folding fan in his hand, Liu Mingzhi took in the scenery in the Fu'an Palace Garden with a calm expression.
From the moment he ascended the throne to the present, he has never neglected the monthly salary and living expenses that Nangong Meng deserves.
It can be said that in the entire majestic palace, apart from the Imperial Garden, the scenery in Fu'an Palace Garden, where Nangong Meng now lives alone, is the most tranquil, magnificent and pleasant.
As time goes by, even a large number of rare objects donated by various state capitals over the years have been given priority to Fu'an Palace for Nangong Meng to enjoy, hoping to please her.
However, after so many years, the results have not been great. Liu Mingzhi gradually understood that he had always underestimated the grudge against him in his mother Nangong Meng's heart.
Maybe the fact that he took away Li Ye, the child, had become a thorn in Nangong Meng's heart that could never be eliminated.
It was not that Liu Mingzhi had not considered giving up the idea of asking Nangong Meng to forgive him for his past actions, but Liu Mingzhi knew better than anyone else that because the third princess, Li Yan, his beloved wife and his son Liu Chengqian were caught in the middle, he could not do it anyway. Act like this.
Otherwise, I’m afraid it will break the hearts of my beloved wife and son!
Especially the existence of sisters Chen Jie, He Shu and others are involved, not to mention the existence of his daughter-in-law Li Jingyao.
For these people, even if they know that they are asking for trouble, they still have to lick their faces and continue to accompany Nangong Meng.
Of course, these are actually secondary. The main reason is that when father Li Zheng was in power in the past, Nangong Meng, the mother-in-law and mother-in-law, was really good to her son-in-law, and she would never deny this.
It is not impossible to be cruel and ruthless in life, but you cannot be ungrateful. A person who is ungrateful will definitely not end up well in the end.
Just think that you owe them the Li family.
While Liu Mingzhi was thinking to himself, two elegant figures wearing phoenix robes and palace attire walked out of the gate of Fu'an Palace.
If not the former Empress Dowager Nangong Meng and the third princess Li Yan, who are the mother and daughter?
Only she knew how the third princess persuaded Nangong Meng, but when the mother and daughter walked out of the palace together, it meant that the third princess had succeeded, and for Liu Mingzhi, this was enough.
After the third princess supported her mother, Nangong Meng, and walked out of the palace, her light phoenix eyes hurriedly looked for her husband around the palace garden.
When she saw Young Master Liu sitting in the pavilion, waving a folding fan and wondering about his background, the third princess hurriedly pretended to cough a few times casually to remind her husband.
Fortunately, the location of the pavilion was close to the steps of the palace gate. When the third princess coughed for the second time, Liu Mingzhi reacted and looked towards the palace gate.
When he saw Queen Mother Nangong Meng and the Third Princess standing together, the joy in Young Master Liu's eyes flashed across his eyes. He closed the folding fan in his hand and hurriedly rushed towards the mother and daughter.
After stopping in front of Nangong Meng and his daughter, Liu Mingzhi winked at the third princess without leaving any trace, and then bowed to Nangong Meng with a respectful expression.
"My son Liu Mingzhi meets his mother and wishes her happiness, longevity and health."
