Chapter 346 After all, the Zhan Palace cannot have only one princess from another country
Jun Feimo smiled slightly, his eyes full of tenderness, and said softly, "Okay." Then he loosened his arms, the two smiled at each other, and they walked out of the room hand in hand.
At this time, Hua Qianyi was standing outside the post station, following the two figures walking out side by side with complicated eyes.
The corners of his mouth curled up into a meaningful smile, and he opened his red lips slightly, saying with a hint of sarcasm: "Brother, although you have already held a wedding ceremony in Chu, the princess is a princess of Chu, and marrying far away in Dongyang is not only a happy event for you personally, but also related to the marriage between the two countries. The emperor personally wrote a letter, and the Imperial Astronomical Observatory carefully selected an auspicious date - September 18th. When you return to Dongyang, you will hold a grand wedding. If you continue to move forward leisurely like this, I'm afraid you will miss this auspicious day."
Yun Shenqi frowned slightly after hearing what Hua Qianyi said. He looked at the road that was gradually becoming clearer in the distance. After a moment of silence, he said in a steady and firm voice: "My Lord, Cousin Xier, we really need to speed up our journey."
Upon hearing this, Jun Feimo said "hmm" in a low and magnetic voice. His gaze was like warm sunshine, gently falling on Chu Zixi beside him, his eyes full of love and pampering.
His fingers gently stroked her soft hair, feeling the silky touch, and a gentle curve appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Then he carefully pulled her into his arms, letting her lean against his broad chest, feeling his warmth and strength.
The two of them stepped into the carriage that had been prepared long ago. The interior was elegantly decorated, with soft cushions and gorgeous decorations that made people feel extremely comfortable.
Hua Qianyi muttered, "I can't stand it, it's so disgusting!"
Yun Shenqi patted his shoulder and said, "Single dog, you don't understand."
Hua Qianyi made a "tsk" sound and jumped onto the horse.
As the carriage started slowly, the sound of the wheels rolling was crisp and pleasant, and the group set out on their journey home.
The most eye-catching person in the team is the little figure - Jun Bai.
Although he is young, he has already demonstrated extraordinary riding skills.
He sat steadily on the tall horse's back, looking heroic and dignified.
His little face was filled with excitement, and everyone knew that Jun Bai was different. He was not an ordinary baby, so they no longer treated him as a child and allowed him to move freely in the team, becoming a beautiful landscape.
The Cining Palace of Dongyang State has now been completely renovated after the last bombing.
After careful restoration, the palace regained its former glory and the empress dowager moved back to the Cining Palace to live.
There is peace and tranquility in the Cining Palace.
The palace maids were busy shuttling between the rooms, serving the empress dowager in her daily life.
The Queen Mother sat on the couch with a serious look in her eyes. She sighed softly and then said, "Your Majesty, there is something in my heart that makes me feel uncomfortable."
The emperor frowned slightly and asked with concern: "Oh? Is the Queen Mother feeling unwell? Should we call the imperial physician to take a look?" There was a hint of worry in his tone, fearing that the Queen Mother was unwell.
The Queen Mother shook her head and said softly, "It's not a physical problem, it's just that too many things have happened recently, and I feel uneasy."
The Queen Mother paused and continued, "Why did Fei Mo suddenly decide to marry the Princess of Chu? What kind of charm does the Princess of Chu have? We in Dongyang are not without good women, so why should we marry the Princess of Chu?"
Upon hearing this, the emperor curled up a barely perceptible smile and thought secretly in his heart.
He coughed lightly and said slowly, "What my mother said is very true. But if I think about it carefully, this is not only Fei Mo's personal choice, but also a matter of diplomatic relations between the two countries. Xiliang has formed an alliance with the barbarians and is eyeing our Dongyang border covetously. The situation is delicate. At this time, the marriage between Dongyang and Chu will undoubtedly add a solid barrier to the country. It is indeed a win-win move."
The Queen Mother frowned slightly, as if she was not satisfied with this explanation. She shook her head gently and sighed, "I understand the interests involved, but the princess of Chu is a foreigner after all. Will it be detrimental to our Dongyang Kingdom? Besides, we didn't have much contact with Chu after the truce. How come Fei Mo suddenly married the princess of Chu?"
After hearing this, the emperor was silent for a moment, then said firmly: "Don't worry, mother, but for now, the marriage with the State of Chu is indeed the best solution. Moreover, since Fei Mo made this decision, he must have his own considerations and plans."
The Queen Mother nodded slightly to show her agreement. She knew that state affairs were not as simple as they seemed, and marriage was often closely linked to complex political factors. However, things had developed to this point, and she could only temporarily trust the judgment of the Emperor and Fei Mo.
The Queen Mother's brows relaxed slightly, as if she understood something, and she said, "I don't know much about the situation in the court, but since Fei Mo is willing to marry, no matter what kind of person that foreign princess is, we don't have to worry about her doing anything after she marries into our Dongyang Kingdom.
I will personally watch her every move. As long as Fei Mo no longer thinks about Murong Zixi, I will naturally feel relieved. I need to choose two suitable concubines for him. After all, the Zhan Palace cannot have only one princess from another country. "
At this time, the emperor interrupted the empress dowager's words, and his voice contained some deep meaning: "Mother, there is no need to rush to choose a concubine for Fei Mo. Let's wait until Fei Mo comes back before making a decision."
"How can I not be anxious? He finally agreed to marry, so of course he has to choose two caring women to accompany him."
The emperor laughed secretly in his heart. His mother didn't know yet that the so-called "Princess of Chu" was the Murong Zixi she mentioned. Now she has changed her name to Chu Zixi, and her identity and status are no longer the same as before.
He couldn't help but feel a little playful in his heart, imagining his mother's surprised and complicated expression when the truth came out in the future, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited.
"Fei Mo, ah Fei Mo," the emperor said silently in his heart, "I want to see what you will do if your mother makes a scene when she finds out that Murong Zixi is the Princess of Chu? When your mother makes a scene, she doesn't care about state affairs or whether there will be an alliance or not. She has been spoiled by the late emperor and can't tell right from wrong even when she's old. I'm looking forward to this drama more and more."
Thinking of this, the emperor couldn't help but smile slightly.
He knew very well that once this farce was revealed, it would cause an uproar, but he didn't care.
On the contrary, he wanted to see the wonderful fight between Murong Zixi, no, Chu Zixi and his mother. It was also to have someone to play with his mother and calm her temper. Otherwise, she would be in charge of his harem all day long, and the concubines in the harem would often come to him to complain.
