    In front of the majestic Ancestral Temple, the emperor stood on the high platform, holding a yellow silk in his hand and reading out the heaven-sacrifice document.  Kneeling below were crowds of princes, nobles, and civil and military officials, all bowing their heads and listening to the lengthy memorial text. I don't know if they were concentrating or drowsy, but in short they looked quite solemn.

    After reading out the sacrificial text and offering three animal sacrifices, everyone kowtowed and stood up from the ground. Suddenly someone shouted: "Ah, shed tears, tears of blood!"

    Everyone looked at the altar and gasped in surprise. They saw blood and tears streaming from the eyes of the three sacrifices on the altar. This was a sign of great disaster.

    Hua Xi stiffened, and secretly raised her head to see the emperor's frozen face on the high platform. He glanced down somewhere, put his hand on his chest, as if suppressing his anger, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Go back to the palace!"

    ? Following the emperor¡¯s gaze, he saw that the people kneeling there were none other than Yin Yuanye and Ouyang Zheng.  Although the ceremony was hosted by the Ministry of Rites, the emperor handed over the responsibility of hosting it to the King of Thailand and appointed Ouyang Zheng as co-president. If something went wrong at this time, Ouyang Zheng would definitely not be able to escape the blame.

    No one expected that something like this would happen, and that the wonderful ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven would end so hastily.  The emperor left angrily, followed by the queen and his concubines. The scene was chaotic for a while.

    Hua Xi glanced at Ouyang Zheng anxiously, and Ouyang Zheng just raised his head and looked here. Their eyes met. He gave her a comforting look and raised the corners of his lips slightly.

    The emperor has finally left, but everyone knows that what will come next will be the real wrath of thunder.

    In the carriage, Huaxi was sitting next to Ouyang Zheng, putting her hand on his hand, clenching it unconsciously, and asked softly: "What happened to you"

    Ouyang Zheng only felt his hands were slightly cold. He wrapped her hands with his big palms, put them on his mouth and took a breath. He pinched his palms and rubbed them. "It's windy today. Why don't you wear more clothes when you come out? Your hands are like this."  cold."

    Huaxi was stunned and forgot to speak.

    Just like that, one rubbed the other's slightly cold hand to warm it, while the other looked at the other quietly, neither of them speaking.  It wasn't until Huaxi's hand regained its warmth that Ouyang Zheng nodded with satisfaction, "If you run into me tomorrow and haven't come back all night, if you don't take care of yourself, I will definitely punish you."

    Outsiders would be surprised to see Ouyang Zheng behave like this. He has always been cold and indifferent. He is not as glamorous as Chen Hongfei, the eponymous prince of Luodong Prince, nor is he as gentle and friendly as Prince Yin. Even saying this  Her thoughtful words were not as gentle as those of others. They were like cold river water, flowing smoothly without ripples, but there was a different kind of warmth flowing through it. Huaxi's heart trembled, and a melting warmth seemed to surge up in her body, soothing those who were worried.  Fear and uneasiness.

    Just when Huaxi was about to speak, the car suddenly stopped. It was the clerk serving the clerk in Ouyang Zheng's study in the palace. He was sweating profusely and came to report, "Sir, someone from the palace wants you to enter the palace immediately. Prince Chengjun also  I've sent someone here, please be careful."

    Huaxi unconsciously grasped Ouyang Zheng's hand, but she didn't know how to speak. In the end, a thousand words turned into just one sentence: "I'll wait for you at home!"

    Ouyang Zheng raised his hand and touched her hair, with a smile on his lips, "Yeah! Wait until I come back!"

    Ouyang Zheng got out of the car and Huaxi returned to the palace alone.

    After changing out of the heavy wedding dress, Cui Ming helped remove the gold hairpin and Zhu Cui from Hua Xi's head, combed her hair into a pony bun, and put on homely light clothes to see the princess.

    As soon as the princess came back, she went to the Buddhist hall. Huaxi didn't dare to disturb her and just sat in the room.  After waiting for a quarter of an hour, the princess was helped out of the Buddhist hall by her nanny.

    "Concubine, please be careful, Wenxuan knows how to measure, nothing will happen to you." Hua Xi stood up and helped the grandmother to help the princess to sit on the kang.

    Looking at Hua Xi indifferently, the princess sighed slightly, "Hey, now I can only ask for peace of mind." Her tone seemed tired, as if she didn't want to talk to Hua Xi anymore, and waved her hand, "You've been tired for a while, so go back and rest!  "

    Huaxi excused herself and left. Before going out, she saw Nanny Feng, who was waiting beside the princess, coming in from outside in a hurry and almost bumped into Huaxi.

    "Prince Concubine!" Nanny Feng looked flustered and saluted Huaxi. However, she glanced into the room and apologized, "You deserve to die. I was rushing to report something to the princess and accidentally bumped into you. Please forgive me."  Forgive me."

    "It's okay, I'm about to leave, please, mama!" Hua Xi looked at Nanny Feng, and she quickly looked away, lowered her head and stepped aside, "His Royal Concubine, please!"

    Hua Xi nodded and walked around her to go out.

    Mother Feng breathed a sigh of relief, stepped up the steps, opened the curtain and entered the house.

    "What's the matter?" The princess took the maid and handed it to her.He took a few sips of tea to moisten his lips.

    "Princess, Princess Zhuangnan sent someone to deliver a message." Nanny Feng deliberately lowered her voice, "The Imperial Guards were ordered to raid Jingninghou's house."

    Marquis Jingning is the princess¡¯s cousin, and he usually has some business dealings with her.  Once the investigation was carried out, there was bound to be some implication. In addition, Ouyang Zheng was called into the palace because something went wrong during the festival. The princess suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, her hands trembled uncontrollably, and she almost dropped the tea cup, "When did you go?"

    "I issued the order as soon as I returned to the palace. Concubine Zhuang Nan happened to be in the palace, and she took the opportunity to bring the message over while getting the medicine. The servant sent someone over to see it, and they have already arrived at Anshengli."

    Princess Huo got off the kang and said, "I have to discuss it with the prince quickly." She didn't stop for a moment, put on her outer clothes and went to the outer courtyard.

    King Luo Xi was discussing the matter of Ouyang Zheng with his staff in the study. When he heard the report on the door that the princess had urgent matters to see the prince, he couldn't help but frowned and said, "Princess, please come in."

    As soon as the princess came in and saw that there were other people in the room, she winked at the prince, and King Luo Xi waved his hand to tell everyone to go out.

    "Princess Zhuang Nan sent news from the palace that the emperor had people raid Jingninghou's mansion. It's true that misfortunes never come singly!" Although accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger, everyone in the Luoxi Palace usually behaves in a low-key manner, but when Ouyang Zheng insisted on marrying Hua Xi  Only then did things change.  Even if he doesn't get involved in political affairs on weekdays, he still knows something about it from his interactions with the prince. From the conversation with the prince and the reactions of the palaces, we can figure out that the emperor is not satisfied with Wenxuan's marriage, or it may be said that the emperor has other things about Xiyue's affairs.  Intend.  At first the princess didn't quite agree, but her son fell in love with it and the prince nodded. As a mother, she didn't object much.  One day after another, things happened one after another. She couldn't help but complain about Huaxi in her heart, and she was even more worried about her son in the palace.

    "There is no news about Wenxuan in the palace now. What should we do if something happens?" The princess' voice changed slightly in anxiety, "I said at the beginning that I could not let him marry Princess Xiyue, and then I refused the emperor's proposal to marry. Wenxuan  The child is really"

    King Luo Xi, who was used to seeing wind and rain, couldn't help but frown when he heard the news. The look on his face changed slightly. He walked around the room for a moment and then said: "What's the use of talking about this now? People are married.  Married back, besides, I told you not to get involved in Marquis Jingning¡¯s business The Holy Emperor had long criticized Wenxuan¡¯s attitude towards the Xiyue incident, but Jingning Marquis¡¯s residence was not only  Warn us, I am afraid that the Holy Emperor has already taken a fancy to the money in Marquis Jingning's hands If something happens to them, it is not our family's business to punish them. Don't worry, Wen Xuan has already been worried about it, and we will wait for the news from Wen Xuan.  Intend."

    The wind started outside the window and blew away the yellow leaves on the branches. King Luo Xi looked out the window and sighed: "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop" (To be continued.
