Chapter 575 Chu Yi ascends the throne
"Aran, I am here to fulfill my promise. Three days from now will be the day when I ascend the throne. Will you marry me?"
Shen Shiran looked up at him, her wet eyes twinkling with stars, and she curled her lips in a smile.
"I am willing."
The two hugged each other tightly.
Seeing this, Ji Yuntang quietly stepped aside and gave the space to the two of them.
When Madam Mo learned that Hua Feixue was Crown Prince Chu Yi, she felt very complicated.
At first, she was very pessimistic about Chu Yi, but Emperor Chu issued an imperial decree to marry Shen Shiran to Chu Yi.
Even if she disagreed, there was nothing she could do.
I thought Shen Shiran would cry and ask for a breakup, but I didn't expect that not only did she not object, she also liked Chu Yi very much.
Even after learning that Chu Yi was burned to death in a fire, she still jumped into the river to be buried with him.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Mo felt hatred and anger in her heart.
She hated Chu Yi for being incompetent and a madman, and was angry at Shen Shiran for being so stupid that she would jump into the river for a man who didn't even want the throne.
It was not until she received the imperial decree of marriage that Mrs. Mo realized that it was not her daughter who was stupid, but herself.
The relationship between Chu Yi and Shen Shiran is better than she imagined.
Chu Yi was not stupid. He was just waiting for the right opportunity to come back and seek revenge on Queen Dowager Yuan.
Now putting herself in Chu Yi's shoes, Mrs. Mo felt that she felt a little sorry for him.
The prejudice against him in my heart gradually disappeared, and was replaced by appreciation and respect.
She felt from the bottom of her heart that her daughter would be very happy in the future if she married Chu Yi.
The three-day deadline soon arrived, and Hua Feixue's enthronement day and wedding day came together.
He got up at the hour of Mao and took the lead in participating in the new emperor's ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven.
Hua Feixue, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe and a crown on her head, went to the Taimiao to worship her ancestors.
After the ancestor worship ceremony was completed, he immediately rushed back to the palace, changed into wedding clothes, and rode to the General's Mansion.
The general's mansion was unusually lively today. Not only was it full of guests, the courtyard was also hung with strings of small purple crystals. The middle was arranged into a small flower hall connected by pure white tulle, which was very dreamy and colorful.
As the host of the wedding, Ji Yuntang designed a Monet garden-style venue for them.
This was the first time that everyone had seen such a scenery. Although it did not have bright red or purple colors, it was very novel and dreamy, as if they were in a fairyland.
Everyone was looking forward to the next scene.
Shen Shiran was wearing a bright red Xiuhe dress and holding an exquisite peony embroidered round fan. With the help of her maid, she walked out of the room slowly.
The waist of Xiuhe's dress is embellished with rice-like blue beads, which perfectly outline her exquisite figure and make the makeup on her face more delicate and lively.
When Hua Feixue saw her, her eyes almost popped out.
Shen Shiran is beautiful enough on ordinary days, and when she looked at her again today, she was just like a fairy from heaven, making all the flowers in the city lose their color.
After Hua Feixue and Shen Shiran thanked Shen Xiangming and Madam Mo, they boarded the sedan chair heading to the palace.
The wedding ceremony was held in the imperial palace. The reason why it was arranged in the imperial palace was because Emperor Chu had already awakened.
Since the surgery was performed not long ago and his body is still recovering, it is not very convenient for him to move.
But it’s okay to sit in a wheelchair in the short term.
The ministers had not seen Emperor Chu for two years. When they saw him now, everyone had an expression of disbelief on their faces.
On the one hand, they lamented that Emperor Chu was actually poisoned and imprisoned by Empress Dowager Yuan.
On the other hand, there is the change in his appearance.
Back then, Emperor Chu was one of the most handsome men in the Western Shu Kingdom.
Even after she ascended the throne and gave birth to several princes and princesses, she remained charming and elegant.
Unexpectedly, in just two years, he had aged so much. His once black hair had turned completely white, and his eyes were filled with wrinkles.
It can be seen how much inhuman torture he suffered at the hands of Empress Dowager Yuan.
The ministers were in mixed feelings. They quickly knelt down and saluted Emperor Chu.
"Your humble servant pays respect to the Emperor. Long live the Emperor."
After the ceremony, Emperor Chu looked at everyone with a smile.
"My dear friends, no courtesy."
"I know what you want to say. It is a great honor for me to be alive and witness the demise of the noble family and the crown prince's ascension to the throne. I also feel that I have no regrets."
"From now on, the Western Shu Kingdom will be handed over to Yi'er to manage. I hope that you will assist him as you have assisted me, remind him at all times, and help him become a wise ruler."
Yuan Jiuan immediately stood up and said, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will definitely assist the new emperor and make him live up to your expectations."
Emperor Chu smiled with relief when he saw Yuan Jiuan.
"I have heard from Yi'er a long time ago that the reason why he was able to defeat Queen Mother Yuan and eliminate the remnants of the aristocratic family this time was that Prince Chengxuan played an indispensable role. Is there any reward you want?"
Yuan Jiuan shook his head and said, "I don't have any reward I want, but I want a reward for a girl."
"This time, General Shen and I were able to defeat Empress Dowager Yuan's army of 400,000. This girl played an indispensable role."
"Without her, we wouldn't have been able to defeat a larger force so easily."
"Are you talking about Doctor Yun?" asked Emperor Chu.
He had vaguely seen a woman's figure in the basement before, but it didn't look very clear.
It is said that this time the broken tendons in his hands and feet were reconnected thanks to Doctor Yun.
Emperor Chu thought of this and said with a smile: "Even if King Chengxuan didn't say this, I would have rewarded Doctor Yun. I wonder if Doctor Yun came to attend the prince's wedding ceremony today?"
As soon as the words fell, someone said, "Doctor Yun is here."
Yuan Jiuan turned his head and looked behind him, and saw Ji Yuntang walking in from outside in a long purple dress.
She walked slowly and gracefully, with a calm and elegant posture, a bright smile on her beautiful face, and bowed slightly as she stepped forward.
"I pay my respects to the Emperor. The Emperor and Empress' wedding sedan chairs have arrived at the palace. We can now begin the wedding ceremony."
Emperor Chu looked at the woman below. This was the first time he had formally met Ji Yuntang. She behaved gracefully and appropriately, with a pair of clear and sharp fox eyes, as if nothing could escape her gaze.
When meeting so many ministers, she did not behave in a humble manner, but instead behaved very calmly and composedly.
Emperor Chu knew that the other party was not simple.
That’s right, how could someone who could catch the eyes of both Yuan Jiuan and Hua Feixue be just an ordinary person?
