But even though he hadn't slept all night, Huang Qiong felt refreshed and not tired at all this time. Moreover, the tossing most of last night did not make him feel any weakness in his waist and knees. On the contrary, it made him faintly feel that his internal strength, which had been stagnant since he started having a man and a woman, was actually improving slightly.
The emergence of this feeling made Huang Qiong somewhat puzzled. He really couldn't understand why this happened? What made him even more confused was that after sleeping with several other women, he had meditated and adjusted his breath, but why this kind of thing never happened. Why do I feel like this after sleeping with Wu Ziyu?
What made him most embarrassed was that when such an unexpected thing happened, he didn't even know who to ask. The most suitable person to ask is the mother, but if the mother knew that she had done something like that last night, she would have to punish herself heavily. If you ask Doctor Li, he doesn't know martial arts, so even if you ask, it will probably be in vain. Asking Duan Jin is even more troublesome.
Giving up the idea of asking others, I took out the jacket that still vaguely contained yesterday's body scent and played with it for a long time. Thinking of that special moment last night, when I was with the other girls. I have never experienced that strange feeling of layer upon layer and peak upon peak. Huang Qiong showed a smile at the corner of his mouth.
Regarding what happened last night, although Huang Qiong felt ashamed of Liu Hu, she had no regrets in her heart. And he also felt that Wu Ziyu, who was passive at the beginning and then became addicted to it and even took some initiative, was not completely indifferent to him. With this feeling, Huang Qiong was not going to let go easily.
Just like what he said in Wu Ziyu's ear when he was leaving. If Liu Hu didn't have this injury, he would keep his thoughts in his heart forever. Even if it was for Wu Ziyu, no matter what, I would not express my thoughts. But Liu Hu's injury made it impossible for him to perform his duties as a husband.
Even if this relationship will never be upright in the future. Even though he knew that he was sorry for Liu Hu by doing this and that it was not a common deed, Huang Qiong also knew that after last night, he would never let go. As for Liu Hu, he just needs to find ways to make more compensation.
In her heart, it was shameless for Huang Qiong to find an excuse to continue this relationship. Very obscenely, I put the jacket to my nose and smelled it, then carefully put it away after smelling the body fragrance on it. He didn't dare to let this thing be exposed, otherwise the grape trellis in his backyard would have to fall down.
It doesn't matter anything else, but Sister Yao still has her own child in her belly. After carefully collecting the things that should be collected, he walked out of the study. Looking at the busy servants in the house, Huang Qiong's face changed from the previous gloomy clouds, and there was always a faint smile on the corner of her mouth. Although his smile was light, in the eyes of the servants who occasionally looked over, he looked like a cat that had succeeded in stealing.
It's just that Huang Qiong's good mood couldn't last even for half a day. Just as he had just finished breakfast with He Yao and Duan Jin, he received the emperor's imperial edict, asking him to enter the palace immediately to meet the emperor. Moreover, the emperor's imperial edict also strictly required Huang Qiong to wear court clothes when entering the palace this time. He was not allowed to wear the scholar's uniform that he showed off every time he entered the palace.
After receiving the imperial edict, I was confused. I didn't know what was wrong with my emperor. Huang Qiong insisted on wearing court clothes and entering the palace. Under the urging of the eunuch who passed the order, he had no choice but to put on his court uniform. This was the first time he had worn it seriously since he finished it. He rode in his prince's warm sedan and hurried to the palace.
Behind him, He Yao and Duan Jin, who looked at Huang Qiong holding the jade belt away from his back unaccustomedly, glanced at each other, almost coincidentally, saw the deep worry in each other's eyes. Although neither daughter knew what was going on when the emperor summoned Huang Qiong into the palace at this time. But both women had a vague feeling that something bad happened today.
Today is the traditional Little New Year among the people. According to the rules of the palace, tomorrow is the day to worship the Kitchen God. Besides, worshiping the Kitchen God has always been the responsibility of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the person in charge of the sacrifice is just the eunuch in charge of the palace. For the emperor, who is the Son of Heaven, the son of God. Except for heaven, earth and ancestors, the status of the rest of the gods was too low to bother the emperor to come and offer sacrifices in person.
The emperor personally went out to worship the Kitchen God, which would have to wait hundreds of years. At least for now, among the gods in the palace who need to be worshiped by the emperor in person, the Kitchen God is not included. Could it be that the emperor wanted him to worship the Kitchen God? But it doesn’t look like it, does it? I heard from King Yong that tomorrow, the 24th of the twelfth lunar month, would be the day of the main ceremony.
Huang Qiong, who originally thought that the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month was the New Year in her previous life, was still doubting it until yesterday. It was already the 22nd of the twelfth lunar month. Why was no one in this house celebrating the New Year? It wasn't until Huang Qiong asked Jia Quan that she found out that in this era, the small year falls on the 24th of the twelfth lunar month. As for when it was changed to twenty-three, Jia Quan has never heard of it, and Huang Qiong himself doesn't know either.
It was precisely because she learned yesterday that the current Xiaonian is the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month every year, so Huang Qiong thought that the emperor didn't ask him to dress so grandly because he wanted to worship the Kitchen God. Maybe, he was required to accompany him to meet some princes, ministers or foreign envoys, so he was allowed to wear court clothes. But thinking of the foreign envoys, Huang Qiong was suddenly startled and thought of someone.
To be precise, it reminds me of a family. How could he have forgotten this master and the emperor's plan? Could it be that today the emperor plans to formally show off his cards and arrange for his father-in-law to marry him? Are you forcing yourself to dress so grandly? This is quite possible. It is not for the sake of giving this man face that he would be replaced by ordinary princes and ministers. The emperor, who knows what he is used to, does not need to dress so grandly.
Huang Qiong, who roughly guessed what the emperor wanted to do with her today and really didn't want to meet the princess, suddenly felt the urge to jump out of the sedan and run away. But he also knew that the most he could do was think about it. If he really ran away, he might not even be able to escape from Jingzhao Mansion without being caught. After all, now I am no longer alone, but with a large group of people to support my family.
And with the shrewdness of my emperor, I also know that I am resistant to this marriage, and even quite disgusted with it. If I really wanted to see the Prince of Guilin today, I am afraid that my own emperor would have already made arrangements. Maybe, outside his mansion, there are people from the North and South Town Fusi everywhere. It's easy to run away by yourself, but what will Sister Yao and the others do?
Just when Huang Qiong was sitting on the sedan chair and thinking wildly, he had already arrived outside the palace gate. At this moment, Huang Qiong, who wished she could never go to the palace in her life, hated her own mansion for the first time because it was too close to the palace. It wasn't even time to burn a stick of incense before they had already arrived at the main entrance of the palace. Even if I gave myself time to think of a solution, I couldn't even stay.
What surprised Huang Qiong even more was that when the prince's sedan chair arrived at the palace gate, he did not stop and went straight into the palace. Seeing this scene, Huang Qiong hurriedly stopped the bearer of the sedan chair, raised the curtain of the sedan chair and wanted to get out of the sedan chair. But before one of his feet touched the ground, Gao Wuyong, who was waiting outside the palace gate, had already spoken: "Your Majesty, the emperor said that when your sedan arrives, you can carry it directly into the palace."
After hearing Gao Wuyong's words, I knew that this was the old man who didn't even have the slightest chance to regret it, and he didn't intend to leave it to himself. Huang Qiong didn't even give herself a chance to go to her mother for help. He could only smile bitterly and said: "Master Gao, this is unreasonable. This is a place in the palace where I can ride in a sedan chair. I, the king, would be better off walking down."
But when Huang Qiong's words fell, Gao Wuyong's reply was: "Back to your lord, this is the emperor's oral order. The emperor has told me, Ah Jiu, don't think about playing tricks on me and go to Xuexuan for help. He If he enters the palace, he does not need to get off the sedan in front of the palace gate. The sedan can be carried directly to Guangshou Hall. There is not that much talk between me and his father and son."
Hearing Gao Wuyong's words, Huang Qiong could only smile bitterly. Huang Qiong, who couldn't run away now and couldn't turn back, had no choice but to sit back down. The bearer had already changed into the eunuch's sedan, and he was not allowed to get off until he reached the gate of Guangshou Hall. After getting off the sedan chair, Gao Wuyong personally took Huang Qiong, who was visiting Guangshou Hall for the first time, into the hall.
Knowing clearly what was waiting for him in the palace, Huang Qiong could only bite the bullet and follow Gao Wuyong into the palace, which had always been used for banquets for ministers in this dynasty. After performing three obeisances and nine kowtows in a proper manner, Huang Qiong stood honestly on one side of the throne and looked at the few people already in the hall.
Looking at the only person sitting in the palace besides the emperor, although the clothes on his body are the clothes of a county king, the embroidery on his body is not a dragon, but a five-clawed python representing the foreign ministers. Although his face looks very elegant, his whole body is that of a middle-aged man with a graceful temperament. He guessed that this person must be the father-in-law chosen by the emperor for himself, and his opponent, the current King of Guilin.
Huang Qiong, who had judged the identity of this person, even though he was full of reluctance about the marriage, couldn't help but secretly admired in his heart: "What an elegant person." With this outstanding temperament and handsome king of Guilin County, Huang Qiong For example, except for the word "ordinary", Huang Qiong couldn't think of a second adjective for his own emperor.
It's just that the emperor didn't let Huang Qionglai stay here in a daze, nor did he intend to give him enough time to observe the people in the palace one by one. Huang Qiong just took a quick look at the King of Guilin. The emperor, who was obviously in good spirits, grabbed Huang Qiong's hand, brought him to the King of Guilin and said, "Ah Jiu, I will introduce you to a few people today."
But before Huang Qiong could speak, the man in the prince's attire stood up first, smiled at the emperor and walked away. He walked to Huang Qiong and bowed and said: "Presumably, this is the three thousand soldiers." , fought a bloody battle with tens of thousands of rebels at Hulao Pass, and then raided Zhengzhou and completely annihilated the rebels in one fell swoop? The foreign minister gave Liu Tingrui, the prince of Guilin, to bring his son and eldest daughter to pay homage to His Royal Highness."
Although the person in front of him was just a county prince, one level below him in title, how could Huang Qiong dare to receive such a great gift from him? Hearing this, he quickly stretched out his hand to stop him and said: "You must not do it, Lord. In terms of seniority, the boy is the younger generation of the King. In terms of contribution to the court, the King is the most outstanding figure in the founding of the country. How can the boy be so virtuous and capable?" The county prince is so generous?"
Regarding Huang Qiong's words, the King of Guilin County smiled slightly and said: "The king is the king and the minister is the minister. Although the foreign minister is slightly older than His Royal Highness, the courtesy of the king and the minister cannot be abolished." After that, he turned around and faced him. The Crown Prince and Princess behind him waved their hands and said: "Jin Nan, Rui'er, why don't you come over to pay homage to His Royal Highness?"
After hearing the instructions from the Guilin County Prince, Huang Qiong noticed the young man and woman standing behind him. You don’t know it until you see it, but you only know the difference once you see it. The eldest son of the Guilin County King has an extremely outstanding appearance. In his previous life, he was definitely a handsome guy who brought disaster to the country and the people. Even if you don't do anything, you can eat and drink without worrying just by looking at that face.
