The Beloved Imperial Consort

Chapter 76 Crown Ceremony

Zong Zhenglin took Mu Xiyao to live comfortably in the Biezhuang, but he dragged his pregnancy back to the mansion half a month before the crowning ceremony.

"Let them stay in the backyard quietly, and see the concubine after she enters the door." Zong Zhenglin hugged Mu Xiyao out of the car, and directly ordered Tian Fushan to take care of the newcomers in the backyard, so as not to disturb Mu Xiyao's pregnancy.

"Your Highness, the coronation ceremony was held at the Jiahe Hall. Can't concubines pretend to be on the sidelines?" Why do you have to clear the venue for the coronation ceremony? The rules of the Great Wei Dynasty really left Mu Xiyao speechless. He is obviously more open-minded towards women, and there are female officials in the palace. But crowning is such an important ceremony, but women are not allowed to observe it.

"Want to see?" Zong Zhenglin looked at Mu Xiyao's bright eyes, full of anticipation.

"Of course I want to." Guanli and Jiji are things that Mu Xiyao has been curious about for a long time. She was supposed to have a wedding ceremony, but it's a pity that she married too early, and the baby was already in her arms. Jiji naturally has no chance with her. Dawei's Jiji is only for those ladies from aristocratic families who have not yet left the court, not everyone can have this honor.

Zong Zhenglin was silent for a moment, thinking for a while. Three days before the coronation ceremony, fasting and bathing are required. On the day of the coronation ceremony, Emperor Yuan Cheng and the three princes will arrive together. The only one who can stay on the spot is the biological mother Concubine Shu.

"Pretend to be a waiter and watch it through the curtain. After the crown ceremony, you are not allowed to stay longer."

Mu Xiyao was overjoyed, Zong Zhenglin could actually arrange for her to mix in? This is simply a major breach of etiquette. However, His Highness the Sixth Highness broke the rules a lot. A man who is used to going his own way is hard to hide his arrogance.

"Your Highness is back?" Su Linrou threw away the girl in her hand, and looked at Nanny Dai with a complicated expression.

"Master, please don't try to be awkward with His Highness. It's okay for ordinary men to be a little arrogant. This Sixth Highness is not an easy master. I heard from the servants that, except for Mrs. Mu, His Highness usually He treats people coldly, and is very dignified. Such a man must be arrogant, how can he allow a woman to make trouble?"

"I'm not stupid enough to offend His Highness!" Su Linrou was annoyed. She just couldn't calm down the unwillingness in her heart. "Since your Highness is back, can you explain when the tea will be served?"

"Just now the chief steward spread the word that it was the concubine who entered the door, and they saluted together."

Su Linrou was slightly taken aback, what does this mean?

"Not allowed to serve tea?" Wan Jingwen looked at Zhu Jin in surprise. What does this mean?

Could it be that Zong Zhenglin wanted to save face for Helian Minmin? Wan Jingwen's face was gloomy, and her fingers that had just painted the colored armor clasped the lining tightly.

"Want to hide away again?" Zong Zhenglin put his arms around Mu Xiyao's waist from behind, stroking her abdomen with his big hands.

The woman shrunk her toes lazily, and said in disgust, "Inferior gouache, it smells bad!"

Pinching her ears, Zong Zhenglin scolded, "Why are you so delicate? Even palace fans can't bear it?" This woman is typically aggressive and doesn't know how to restrain herself. If you don't teach for three days, I will give you a lot of tricks.

"Who made them all look charming when the concubine was pregnant? It's annoying!" Mu Xiyao usually doesn't use rouge and gouache, but if a group of women get together, the messy smell, isn't it uncomfortable?

"Your Highness, is this brothel Chu Guan really that good? Why do men just want to drill in? I really can't stand thinking about the makeup all over the sky. There is also that flying juan handkerchief, who will slap on the face when she sees people." Scan, have you changed it?"

Zong Zhenglin was amused by the weird thoughts in Mu Xiyao's mind, what was this woman thinking about? Most of the people in Shengjing who can enter the brothel are "Ya Ji", who are very sought after by clan scribes. Those in her mouth are just lowly whores, who cannot enter the brothel. Could it be that brothels are all so filthy in the eyes of noble ladies from aristocratic families?

"Don't talk nonsense. If you have free time, it's okay to pretend to be an unannounced visit." It is good for her to bring a little girl to see more of the world. Shengjing is prosperous, but it is also full of filth. In case she doesn't know how deep she is, she will go out of the palace and rush around.

Mu Xiyao's eyes lit up, can I go and see? "Small waitress is also okay?"

"Presumptuous!" Zong Zhenglin scolded angrily, and it would be easy to beat someone after he was arrested. Still want to go to the small restaurant? It seems that after leaving the palace, you have to watch her closely to be at ease.

Mu Xiyao threw a rock at her own foot, this time it was really badly repaired. His Royal Highness the Sixth Highness couldn't tolerate her "women's lack of morality". This woman just always likes to bump into her and doesn't know how to repent.

Zongzheng Lin left the mansion before the ceremony, squinting at her for a long while with his phoenix eyes. "Review the book carefully. If you can't answer the hall inspection, the nurturing mother will be there at any time." After finishing speaking, she left without waiting for her reply.

What does this mean? Wen what book? Mu Xiyao was at a loss, and stared blankly at the Sixth Highness getting up and leaving.

After dinner in the evening, Mother Zhao held a stack of books and lowered her head to present them.

When Mu Xiyao took it over and saw the title of the book, she gritted her teeth angrily, and slapped the book hard on the desk.

That bastard Zong Zhenglin!

She was actually asked to read "Girls' Regulations", "Internal Training", "Xiuyi" and "Female Fan Jielu"! Didn't you just mention a little word? Isn't this what happened? As for, as for?

His uncle, next time he must wear a female figure and play NP, it's so embarrassing.

In the thirteenth year of Emperor Zhanghe of Yuancheng, on the fourth day of June, His Highness Zong Zhenglin, the Sixth Highness, performed the crowning ceremony at the Jiahe Hall. The emperor came in person, the grand master congratulated him, and the Taibao crowned him.

Mu Xiyao was dressed in a moon-white ceremonial suit, quietly sitting on a soft chair in the cubicle, looking out through the gauze curtain. Defender Zhen's face was pale, and the corners of his mouth were tightly pursed.

Master Yao has come to Jiahe Palace to have fun! Isn't this killing him? His Highness actually indulged so far, and the crown ceremony even allowed her to break the rules of the ancestors. Wei Zhen suddenly missed the dignified and serious Sixth Highness before. The current master, Wei Zhen looked at Concubine Mu who was sitting firmly in front of her with heartbroken eyes, why did she always feel that she was being led astray by this one?

Mu Xiyao looked at Zong Zhenglin kneeling upright, even if he bent his knees, he was still domineering. That man showed his inner arrogance so stubbornly, no wonder the wild flowers and rotten peach blossoms kept jumping on him.

Zong Zhenglin, who was kneeling in the center of the hall, wore a deep purple rimmed prince's crown, a black cloth crown, a traveling crown, and a crown. Afterwards, he stood tall and dignified.

Emperor Yuan Cheng nodded his approval and gave a warning.

Mu Xiyao looked at Zong Zhenglin under the attention of everyone, with a calm demeanor and a graceful demeanor. Duzui muttered, and quietly left with Wei Zhen.

Wei Zhen was admiring His Highness's unparalleled demeanor, when Master Yao said angrily "Male peacocks love to show off", he staggered, the corners of his mouth twitched, and his forehead was sweating.

Zong Zhenglin noticed from the corner of his eye that there was no longer any figure behind the curtain, so he withdrew his thoughts and calmly accepted the congratulations from the guests present.

In addition to the ceremonial clothes, Mu Xiyao ostentatiously stopped and enjoyed in the imperial garden, but she wondered whether Zong Zhenglin would really inspect her "homework".

Just as she was distracted, Mother Zhao gently pulled her sleeve. Hearing the greetings from everyone behind him, he noticed the man in front of him with a gentle smile.

Mu Xiyao was stunned for a moment, and immediately became embarrassed. He hurriedly adjusted his expression, and bowed his knees to salute. "His Highness Fifth, well."

Zong Zhengming caught Mu Xiyao's uneasiness in his expression, and he politely called out without saying anything. Seeing that she was wearing thin clothes, and she didn't see any outer clothes, she frowned slightly.

"The dew is cold at the end of spring, don't be greedy for coolness." After speaking, he led someone past him.

Mother Zhao Huilan stared at Mu Xiyao strangely, when did the master get so familiar with the Fifth Prince?

"Your Highness!" The soft female voice behind Mu Xiyao interrupted Mu Xiyao's stunned stupefied, but when she turned her head, she saw a strange woman looking at her with unkind eyes.

Who's coming? What kind of look is this? Mu Xiyao narrowed her eyes slightly, trying to remember.
