The Aloof Prince Pampers His Wild First Rate Consort

Chapter 144 Reading the imperial edict

After Concubine Qin's body was buried in the imperial mausoleum, Eunuch Lu, who was beside Emperor Ximing, walked towards Chu Li and Mu Yunjin with money.

After approaching, he bowed to Chu Li, Chu Ye and the others, "The emperor has an order, please move your Highness to Jingming Hall."

After the words fell, Eunuch Lu walked away.

Mu Yunjin stood on one side, bit her lip, glanced at Chu Li, and then at Chu Ye.

Jingming Hall, that is the place of the early dynasty.

...

After returning to the palace, Mu Yunjin stood under the steps outside the Jingming Hall, and found that many princes and ministers in official uniforms were walking towards the Jingming Hall, all of them had stern faces and hurried steps.

"Chu Li, you go in first." Mu Yunjin said to Chu Li beside her.

Chu Li stared at her, seeing that she looked a little lost, with an elegant smile on her lips, "I'm waiting for my prince here."

"Yeah." Mu Yunjin nodded heavily, stretched out her hand to pull Chu Li's sleeve, and said in relief, "It's okay."

Hearing this solemn tone, Chu Li couldn't help but smile a little, the smile on his lips deepened, he rubbed her face, turned around and walked into Jingming Hall.

Mu Yunjin looked at Chu Li's back, clasped her hands together, leaned against the stone pillar beside her, pursed her lips, and tried to calm herself down, hoping to hear some movement inside.

After Mu Xiang changed into his official uniform, he also hurried over at this time. After catching a glimpse of Mu Yunjin in the corner by the steps, he walked over, "Yunjin, why are you here?"

"I'm waiting for Chu Li." Mu Yunjin replied naturally.

Mu Xiang's face was a little gloomy, and he didn't say much, "Then you should be careful here alone."

After finishing speaking, he entered the Jingming Hall.

...

At this time, the Jingming Hall was filled with a gloomy atmosphere.

Putting on the dragon robe, Emperor Ximing walked into the hall, sat on the dragon chair in the center of the hall, looked down at the people below with deep eyes.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live." Everyone bowed down.

"All gentlemen are exempt from courtesy." Emperor Ximing said.

Everyone got up.

Emperor Ximing put his hands on the chair, his eyes fell on the princes standing on one side, and he coughed lightly, "The past few days, my mother and concubine have died of illness. While I was grieving, I also thought about many things."

"The world is impermanent, and I don't know if I will leave suddenly someday. After thinking about it, I called all the princes and loves today to announce something."

Everyone below was silent, their gazes were fixed on Emperor Ximing, and most of them could guess what was going to be said next.

"Time flies, and I only recently discovered that all my sons have grown up..."

Emperor Ximing didn't continue to speak, but clenched his fists together, looked down at Mu Xiang who was standing on the right, and said, "Mu Aiqing, let you read the imperial edict."

Mu Xiang was startled, nodded slowly, and walked forward. Eunuch Lu, who was standing beside Emperor Ximing, bent down and handed a bright yellow imperial decree to Mu Xiang's hand.

Mu Xiang took the imperial decree, but felt that it was extremely heavy. After taking a deep breath, he slowly opened the imperial decree.

After catching a glimpse of the contents above, his face froze, but he reacted instantly and began to read out the contents of the imperial decree. Just as he was about to speak, thinking that Mu Yunjin was still standing outside the hall, he couldn't help but increase his voice.

"Fortunately, the emperor said, since I ascended the throne, I have put the country first in everything, and never dared to slack off. Now, I have been in charge of the Xiyuan Kingdom for more than thirty-five years, and I am getting tired and unable to do what I want. Fortunately, I The descendants are outstanding, and there are many brave and resourceful people who can take on great responsibilities. Therefore, after thinking about it, the fourth prince Chu Ye has a good character, is resourceful and considerate, and is the best candidate to take over the country. Today, the fourth prince Chu Ye is bestowed the crown prince. Entering the East Palace. I hope that the prince Chu Ye will care about the common people in the future, and my painstaking efforts will not be in vain."

After Mu Xiang read it, he paused for a moment, glanced under his eyes, there was an uproar among the ministers, but the princes showed no expression on their faces.

Outside the door, Mu Yunjin bit her lips, and listened to all the content of the imperial decree read by Mu Xiang inside. Although she had known about it for a long time, but when she heard the real imperial decree, she couldn't help but reach out and beat the stone pillar beside her punch.

In the hall, Mu Xiang lowered his eyes and continued to read the next content of the imperial edict——

"The third prince, Chu Qing, is a malleable talent. He was specially named a prince and given the title of 'Chen'. From now on, he will enter the morning court every day to discuss matters."

After a pause, Mu Xiang looked sharply, the hand holding the imperial decree gradually trembled, and continued to read——

"The sixth prince, Chu Li, is named the Prince together, and is specially given the title of 'Ning'. I hope that in the future, we will help the emperor to stabilize the country and the family, so that the country can be peaceful."

"This!"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

After reading the imperial decree, he retreated to the rank of ministers. Chu Ye walked out from one side, bent and knelt on the ground, and kowtowed three times, "I will definitely do my best to live up to the prosperous world laid down by my father."

"Okay." Emperor Ximing nodded in satisfaction, and looked at Taifu Zhuang, "Zhuang Aiqing, starting tomorrow, you will enter the East Palace and start assisting Ye'er in some ways of governing the country."

"I obey the order." Zhuang Taifu bowed and nodded.

After a pause, Emperor Ximing glanced at Chu Qing and Chu Li on one side, and didn't say much, looking at the ministers, "These days are busy with the funeral of the mother and concubine, I wonder if you have something to report?"

A minister stepped out of the line and said respectfully, "My Majesty, Yang Wanshan, the prefect of Qingzhou, sent a letter a few days ago, saying that the terrain of Qingzhou is dangerous, surrounded by mountains and rivers, but the heavy rain has continued recently, and the rainstorm has lasted for more than two months. For a long time, it has caused great floods in the local area, and now more than half of the people in Qingzhou have died because of this, and here in Qingzhou, the food and water sources have been cut off, and now the people are struggling to survive."

"There is such a thing? Since it has been raining for two months, why did you report it now?" Emperor Ximing was furious.

The minister was startled, lowered his head and said, "The letter was written one and a half months ago. Qingzhou is far away from the imperial city, and it suffered from floods. I am afraid that this letter has encountered many problems along the way."

Hearing this, Emperor Ximing's face softened a little, and he said, "Although Qingzhou is remote, they are all my people, and the flood issue must be resolved."

After saying that, Emperor Ximing turned his gaze to Chu Li who had been silent all this time, and said with a smile, "Li Er, since you are now named King Ning, I will leave it to you to make the people of Ning happy."

Everyone was startled again, all a little surprised.

The terrain of Qingzhou is close to the border, and it is an extremely poor and cold place. Now that there is a flood, it is enough to send any prince or minister there.

But after thinking about it, the emperor made Chu Ye the crown prince this time, and made Chu Li, who had always been indifferent and cold, the king of Ning.

The word Ning probably has other meanings...

"My son obeys the order." Chu Li didn't say anything else, and complied with Emperor Xi Ming's words.

Emperor Ximing nodded in satisfaction, and his eyes fell on Chu Li with a little deep meaning, "Since this is the case, the flood cannot delay, and you will set off for Qingzhou tomorrow."

Chu Li nodded.

...

Standing outside the hall, Mu Yunjin only heard the imperial decree that Mu Xiang read just now, but did not hear about the flood in Qingzhou. At this time, she folded her arms and saw the ministers coming out one by one, stretching their necks to look for Chu. Li figure.

After a while, Chu Li walked out of the hall slowly, with his eyes slightly lowered. From time to time, there were ministers at the side congratulating him on being crowned king, but he ignored them.

"Chu Li..." Mu Yunjin yelled when she saw Chu Li.

Hearing this voice, Chu Li raised his eyes, and saw a woman waving at him with a smile on his face not far away, his heart throbbed a little.

Chu Li approached Mu Yunjin, and stretched out his arms to embrace her, "I've been standing here for a long time, are you tired?"

Mu Yunjin shook her head, pursed her lips, smiled for a while, and caressed Chu Li, "I greet His Royal Highness King Ning."

"Stupid." Chu Li spit out a word, and took her to the direction of the palace gate.

To this stupid word, Mu Yunjin didn't react much today, walking on the road, raising her eyes from time to time to observe Chu Li's expression.

Chu Li naturally knew that Mu Yunjin had been peeking at her, so he lowered his eyes slightly, "What are you looking at?"

Mu Yunjin stood still, looked around, saw no one around, and reached out to hold Chu Li's hand, "Actually, it's not bad to be a king, at least there are not so many trivial matters. My heart is attached to the people, how tiring I am to live..."

As soon as the words fell, Chu Li knocked on the head suddenly, and then a low laugh sounded above the head, "Where do you see that the prince is thinking about the position of the prince?"

Mu Yunjin was dazzled by the sudden smile, at this moment, she could see the smile on Chu Li's face, Mu Yunjin's heart hung half a minute as if she saw a treasure.

"You don't care about the crown prince?" Mu Yunjin couldn't believe it, and asked again.

"Yeah." Chu Li nodded, pulled her to continue walking towards the gate of the palace, staring at the front with her eyes, and smiled slightly when she heard the muttering still coming from beside her.

...

After returning to the Prince's Mansion, as soon as they reached the gate, someone from the palace had already stepped forward to replace the plaque at the gate of the Prince's Mansion.

Many people who passed by halfway stopped and looked at the plaque on the Sixth Prince's Mansion, which was replaced by Ning Wang's Mansion.

After entering the mansion, a group of servants also came up to welcome them, and knelt down to Chu Li and Mu Yunjin, "Greetings to His Royal Highness King Ning and Concubine Ning."

Mu Yunjin frowned, waved at these people, and signaled them to go down.

Now I haven't figured out Chu Li's mood for becoming king, what kind of chaos are these people coming up to cause!

Walking to Liquan Pavilion, Mu Yunjin was about to go back to her room when she was stopped by Chu Li. She turned around and looked at Mu Yunjin, "Tomorrow the Japanese prince will go on a long journey, and he won't be back for a while."

Upon hearing this, Mu Yunjin immediately ran to Chu Li, frowned and looked at him, "What do you mean by that, that you won't take me?"

Chu Li nodded, "My prince is going to Qingzhou to solve the flood. The terrain is dangerous and the environment is difficult there, so I won't take you. You stay in the mansion and take care of the mansion for my prince."

Mu Yunjin was slightly startled, flood?

The emperor was able to make troubles, and he also made Chu Qing king, so why did he let Chu Li do some kind of flood.

After thinking about it, Mu Yunjin said angrily, "No, I want to go too!"

"No." Chu Li refused, with his lips pursed tightly, "You stay in the mansion and wait for the prince to come back."

With an unquestionable tone, Mu Yunjin saw that Chu Li's brows and eyes were covered with a layer of darkness, and his tone was also indifferent, so he knew that he was on the verge of fury.

So he curled his lips and snorted coldly, "If you don't go, you don't go, you don't enjoy the blessings, and I'm not stupid!"
