The wind of worshipping the Temple of Heaven is very noisy, the empress dowager's expression is very solemn, and Hua Liuli...very cold.

She helped the queen mother to walk to Changlong Emperor, Changlong Emperor supported the queen mother, she blessed the two. This was the first time she saw Emperor Changlong. This was a beautiful uncle. The corners of his eyes and the brows of the prince were similar to him.

Emperor Changlong noticed the little girl next to the Queen Mother, there was no timidity in her big eyes, she was very agile, but her posture looked a little weak.

This little girl is so good, cute and cute, and the boss has such a big-hearted character, you have to match such a little girl to know that it hurts. He thought that the eldest had liked martial arts since she was a child, and the little girl of the Hua family would be more used to it after marrying him.

He was a little angry in his heart, but this kind of thing pays attention to you and me. In case he forced the boss to make the matchmaker, and the boss is not good to the other girl, that would harm her.

Three generations of the Hua family had such a girl, and by then he would face the court.

Emperor Changlong kindly nodded to Hua Liuli before helping the queen mother to continue walking up.

Hua Liuli bowed back three steps before turning around and walking back. The entire open space was extremely quiet, and she felt a lot of eyes falling on her, but when she raised her head, she saw only the courtier's wife standing respectfully.

The eyes of these people in the capital are really free and easy, even more powerful than the archers in the barracks.

She turned her head and saw that the prince in costume was about to walk up to the altar of heaven, stopped and took a step aside.

When the prince walked past her, he paused slightly and gave her a palm-sized thing.

The warmth flows along the palms of the limbs, this is a small and exquisite hand warmer. Hua Liuli, who was frozen by the morning cold wind, covered the hand warmer and looked up at the back of the prince.

Hey, at this moment, the back of His Royal Highness is particularly tall.

When she came down the steps, the officials of the Ministry of Etiquette led her to the queue of the imperial wife. Although she is young, she has a high rank and stands very far forward. When she saw that the person standing on her right was Princess Jiamin, her smile became even brighter: "Princess, we are really destined."

Jiamin: "..."

No, I don't want to see you.

With the warming stove, the hands that were blown cold by the wind gradually warmed up. Seeing Princess Jiamin's "Don't touch me" expression, Hua Liuli didn't get angry, holding the stove leisurely and waiting for the ceremony to begin.

As the sky was getting brighter, Emperor Changlong read a sacrificial text and asked the prince to read one too.

Hua Liuli thought this was a normal process, but she found that when the prince went to recite the sacrificial text, the expressions of the wives around her were a little shocked, especially the princess Jiamin, whose expressions were both unexpected and unwilling.

"kneel!"

"Boom." The chime's voice spread throughout the open space, Hua Liuli's emotions were shrouded in solemnity. She stuffed the hand warmer into her sleeve and knelt down respectfully.

Worship God, pray for the people of the world to live and work in peace and prosperity, and the weather will be smooth.

"Kneel again."

After the three prayers and nine knocks, there are still many processes behind. Listening to the monk’s chanting of the scriptures, Hua Liuli untied the kit from her waist and secretly ate a piece of milk.

I don't know how the Eastern Palace chefs do it. This milk slice is sweet and not greasy. After the entrance, the lips and teeth are surrounded by the fruity scent of milk, and the whole person feels better.

The prince was probably worried that she would get tired of just taking milk slices. He also prepared a piece of dried meat for her. She would eat one from time to time. She felt that this kind of boring occasion could not be so difficult.

When she picked up a piece of milk tablet again, she found that Princess Jiamin was peeking at her. After hesitating for a moment, she took out five pieces from the kit, after thinking about it, threw back two pieces, and then handed it to Jiamin: "Eat?"

"I'm not like..."

Hearing "No", Hua Liuli put her hand back.

Jiamin: "..."

She knew that this bitch was not so generous.

Standing in the crowd, Hua Liuli discovered many interesting things. A certain princess standing in the first row has a very dignified posture, and when she secretly eats something hidden in her sleeve, she is more calm than others.

The princess on her left pretended to be coughing lightly, but was stuffing her mouth.

She even smelled a faint scent of tea coming from behind, and looked back, but she couldn't see any clues.

It is not easy for the people in the capital. They often attend important gatherings, and in order not to get hungry, they have found such a rich experience in stealing food.

After sighing, she felt that the prince was really good-natured. If it weren't for him, she would have become a hungry little pitiful in the cold wind.

As time passed, Jiamin stared at Hua Liuli, who was stealing food from time to time, and felt more and more hungry. However, she wanted to make a good impression in front of the concubine Xian, because she couldn't steal food, so she didn't prepare any food.

Knowing that she is hungry, Hua Liuli still eats so happy, not a human!

Near noon, the ceremony of offering to heaven finally reached the final step. The scriptures read by the monks and Taoists, as well as the sacrificial writings written to God by the prince and courtiers, were all burned to heaven.

Hua Liuli looked at the blue smoke slowly rising up into the sky, touched the empty kit, and she would have finished eating her snacks before it was over.

When he saluted again, Hua Liuli shook, seemingly exhausted.

Fortunately, the young princess standing beside her supported her.

"Work." Hua Liuli smiled gratefully to the princess.

"You are welcome." The princess had a round face and smiled kindly.

After the ceremony was over, Hua Liuli was about to leave with the fateful wives, but was called back by the female officer next to the Queen Mother.

"Anning, don't look." Princess Jiamin glanced at the princess round face. "She is a foreign minister, even if she is named the princess, how does she compare with our decent relatives of the imperial kingdom."

"Furthermore." Jiamin sneered, "Hua Liuli's identity, if you have a good relationship with her, can you afford it?"

Princess Anning's eyelids trembled, and he closed his gaze toward Hua Liuli's back.

When Hua Liuli followed the female officer, the prince found that the two bags around her waist were empty, and he chuckled lightly. The King of England who was standing next to him thought bitterly, isn't it because his father asked him to read the sacrificial texts too, what's so good about it.

"Yuan Su." Emperor Changlong turned his head and said to the prince, "You follow me."

Seeing the father and prince take the prince back in the sedan chair, the king of England almost rolled his eyes out of his eyes, but when he saw Hua Liuli walking by, he rolled his eyes back again.

In any case, the woman who almost became his princess, the face is still needed.

"The court ladies have seen your majesty, the empress dowager, your prince, and your princes." Hua Liuli saluted everyone, her gaze swept across them, and saw the four princes who had never had a chance to see.

It is rumored that the birth mother of the four princes is not high, but what is more legendary is that he has an uncle who was admitted to the top prize, and he is very capable and trusted by the emperor.

The appearance of the four princes is not as eye-catching as the prince, but they are also called a crown jade, handsome and outstanding, but they look a little reticent and cold and uncomfortable.

"Come." The queen mother held Hua Liuli's hand, and saw that her hand was warm, relieved: "Go, go back to the palace with Ai's house."

The prince walked over to support the queen mother: "Grandma, you are careful to step down the steps."

"Good, good." The queen mother liked her grandson's closeness very much, and she said to the prince, "After tossing for a long time, you are also tired. Go back and have a good rest."

"Your grandmother is so energetic, even if your grandson is tired, you are not embarrassed to speak out in front of your old man." The prince sighed, "Grandson also wants face."

The queen mother was amused by the prince: "Look at you like this, but you have no skin and face."

Hua Liuli curled her mouth and smiled. She used to think that the royal family was talking about rules everywhere. After staying in the Shoukang Palace for a while, she discovered that the royal family was also a human, and she sometimes got close to jokes in private.

"Little girl, what are you laughing at?" The prince noticed Hua Liuli's smile.

Hua Liuli shook her head innocently: "His Royal Highness, the courtiers can't help but be happy when they think that the new year will be smooth in the Jin Dynasty."

The prince stared at Hua Liuli, who looked back with wide eyes.

"Your Majesty, look at the prince." Concubine Xian walked to Emperor Changlong and smiled, "I'm so happy."

Emperor Changlong nodded with satisfaction: "The mother of the child Yuan Su died young, so he has been very close to the Queen Mother."

Concubine: "..."

Is this what she wants to say?

His Majesty did not see the prince and Hua Liuli's closeness, did he ever suspect that the two had children's affair?

Concubine Xian wanted to grab Emperor Changlong and shake it a few times, then pointed at the crown prince and Hua Liuli and asked his majesty to marry the two evils.

She didn't believe it anymore. If the prince married the daughter of the Hua family, his majesty could still trust him without any ill will.

"Yeah, not only is the prince happy, but the Fushou princess also gets along well with the queen mother and prince." Concubine Xian felt that she could bravely rescue this topic.

"Yeah." Emperor Changlong smiled, "The child Liuli has a pure and kind personality and gets along very well with the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother treats her like a granddaughter."

Concubine: "..."

The look in this man's eyes is probably something wrong.

"That's right." The smile on Emperor Changlong's face narrowed. "Before the poisoning incident in Lincui Palace has been investigated, you shouldn't be too close to Princess Fushou for the time being. The child is weak and cannot be frightened."

Concubine: "..."

"Huh?" Seeing Concubine Xian did not speak, Emperor Changlong frowned slightly and turned to look at her.

"What your majesty said is that the concubine is also very distressed about the body of the Fushou Princess." Concubine Xian was grateful, "but your majesty is willing to believe that the poison is not the concubine's, and the concubine's heart... is really touched."

"I know that you can't do this kind of thing." Emperor Changlong had a light expression. With the mind of Concubine Xian, he couldn't get Sanxisan the banned medicine in the palace, he knew very well.

After the Queen Mother went first, the King of England stepped forward to support the concubine: "Mother concubine."

When the mother and son arrived at the sedan chair, the concubine Xian couldn't restrain the excitement in her heart and said, "My son, we still have a chance."

When the King of England saw his mother with a smile on his face, he asked in a low voice, "What did the king say to you just now?"

"Your Majesty has never suspected that I poisoned Hua Liuli, which means that in His Majesty's heart, we have always trusted our mother and son." Concubine Xian patted the King's arm, "My son, you have to work harder."

"Son save it." The British king thought, he was different from the prince.

The prince's biological mother died early, and there is no maternal power that can be used.

He is different from the Prince.

He still has many opportunities.

The author has something to say: Prince: Our minds are quite different.
