Chapter 131 The Regent Has a Beautiful Girl in His Golden House (38)
He lay casually on the couch, thinking back to the leisurely time of the past few days, which felt quite good.
It's just that he wants to pursue excitement, so he won't play with Mu Hanqing anymore...
Time passed quietly, and it was early the next morning.
The sound of gongs and drums resounded throughout the palace. All the civil and military officials came to congratulate. Even the young emperor personally issued an edict to confer the title of Princess Rong'an as the first lady of the Rong Dynasty.
Praise the two of them as a match made in heaven.
The Rong Dynasty attached great importance to marriage etiquette. The more grand the ceremony was, the more importance they attached to the other party. Mu Hanqing rode a reddish-brown horse to welcome people into the mansion.
He was wearing a red wedding gown with a huge red flower tied on his chest. Mu Hanqing's eyes were gentle, and he did a very good job of putting on a good show.
The dowry maid beside her held Guan Shang's arm and carefully brought her to Mu Hanqing.
Guan Shang wore a bright red wedding gown, a pair of brightly colored embroidered shoes, and a red veil embroidered with a picture of mandarin ducks playing in the water, representing the couple's everlasting love and their wish for a happy marriage.
She raised her hand, put it on Mu Hanqing's arm, and walked towards the front hall with her.
Sitting on the sandalwood chair, Guan Nanyang looked at the two of them with a smile on his face, and the foundation that had been laid in his heart for many days was finally settled.
"Bow to heaven and earth!" the servant beside them shouted loudly to the two of them.
Guan Shang took Mu Hanqing's hand, turned around and bowed towards the door with him.
"Two thanks to the high hall!"
"Couple greetings!"
After hearing the last voice, Mu Hanqing hesitated for a moment, then slowly bowed to Guan Shang.
"The ceremony is completed and sent to the bridal chamber."
Upon hearing this, applause broke out all around, and everyone looked at each other, praising the two for how well-matched they were.
Before the next person could make a move, a voice came from the door, "The left prime minister has arrived, and the gift is one hundred taels of gold and a night-shining pearl from Shu."
"Left Prime Minister? Why is the Left Prime Minister here?"
"I don't know. Isn't it rumored that the Left Prime Minister and Prince Rong'an have always been at odds? It's really rare to see these two great Buddhas together."
"Could he be here to mess things up?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? This is Prince Rong'an's wedding banquet, who dares to come and ruin it?"
Before the conversation died down, Xiao Chengyu had already walked in. He raised his eyes to look at Mu Hanqing, a smile on his face, "I'm late, I hope Your Majesty won't blame me."
"How could that be? Everyone who comes is a guest. Please, Prime Minister Left... take a seat?" There was a hint of inquiry in Mu Hanqing's eyes.
"Thank you, Prince Rong'an." Xiao Chengyu turned and walked to the nanmu table beside him, raised his feet and sat down.
"Since all the guests are here, let's start the banquet." Mu Hanqing raised his hand.
The servant beside him nodded, and then shouted loudly, "Let's have the feast!"
On the other side, Tangcuo packed his luggage, walked to the big tree in the yard as if nothing had happened, and then leaned against the trunk.
"Mu Hanqing, getting married is such a good thing, but he didn't even bring me a dish?" Tang Cuo smelled the aroma of rice and his stomach growled a few times.
But after a moment, there was a hurried knock on the door. Tang Cuo immediately tensed up and walked quickly towards the outer door.
"Is this Young Master Tang? We can get ready to leave..." The man was wearing the clothes of a servant in Prince Rong's Mansion and holding a package in his hand.
As soon as he finished speaking, the man threw the package to Tang Cuo, "Please change your clothes, Mr. Tang. The guards at the Rong'an Palace are very strict. It will be difficult to escape if you don't do this."
Tang Cuo took the package and without much hesitation, he quickly went to the side and changed his clothes.
The two men dressed up as servants and walked towards the gate of Prince Rong's Mansion.
"Brother, where is the person guarding the door?" Tang Cuo was puzzled: How could he come out so easily?
"Some of them were transferred by Prince Rong'an to patrol the palace, and for the other part, I put knockout drugs in their drinks and made them pass out." The man replied.
"So easy? Is this a trick?" He said he was an expert, but it seems he is just so-so...
"It's not that easy actually. It's just that the Rong Palace is holding a wedding banquet today, and all the subordinates drank a few sips to bring good luck to their prince. It's just that I drank a larger dose."
"So that's it..."
"Stop!" Before the two men could take a few steps, a cold shout suddenly sounded behind them, and their bodies froze in place instantly.
Tang Cuo swallowed and turned around following the people beside him.
"Where are you two going?" A man in a guard's uniform behind them raised his eyes and looked at the two of them.
"My lord, Lord Rongcuo said that the mansion might have been infested with rats, and some of the red dates and peanuts left for the princess's bed cushions are missing. He sent us to purchase them quickly and told us not to waste time." The man lowered his head slightly.
"Huh? How come I didn't know that the palace was infested with rats?" Seeing the guard walking towards the two of them, Tang Cuo clenched his fists tightly, ready to fight him.
"Long San, what are you doing? The master asked us to patrol over there. If we delay, you'll be in danger of your life." A head popped out from the rockery and looked in the direction of the few people.
Hearing his words, Long San turned around and asked, "The mansion is infested with rats. Is this true or false?"
"Yeah, I don't know what happened. There was no problem before, but suddenly there were rats. They also ate a lot of the princess's bed mattresses. What happened?" Long Si looked at him puzzled.
"Nothing? Just confirming." Long San looked at Tang Cuo and the other man, then waved his hand, "In that case, go quickly, don't delay."
"Yes, I'll go right away." Hearing his relief, the two of them immediately turned around and quickened their pace.
After that, the two of them had a smooth journey and left the Rong'an Palace smoothly.
At the corner, Tang Cuo changed his clothes and looked up at the man beside him, "Did we really get bit by rats?"
"There are no rats. I sneaked into the storage room the night before and stole some. I ate so many red dates that my nose was bleeding." The man smiled innocently, "Okay, Mr. Tang, let's hurry up."
Tang Cuo nodded, then followed the man closely. After crossing several streets, the two finally got on a carriage.
The car swayed and drove out. Tang Cuo leaned against the window and looked at the person sitting opposite him. Then his eyes flickered, "I remember you. Are you... Zuo Xiang's man?"
"Mr. Tang has a good memory. I am indeed the left prime minister's man." Yu Zhu said calmly.
"So you are the ones who used the cat to deliver the message? Why are you helping me? Don't you want to kill me?" Tang Cuo clasped his hands together.
"Mr. Tang, you're joking. There may have been some misunderstandings before. Our Prime Minister still wants to make friends with you." As he said this, he raised his hand and poured two cups of tea.
He kept one cup for himself and took the other cup and handed it to Tang Cuo, "Mr. Tang, calm down. I will use this cup of tea to apologize to you on behalf of our Prime Minister."
[Host, please be careful! There is something in the tea. Please drink with caution.] The system's prompt sounded in Tangcuo's mind.
