Chapter 252: The scene is quite large
Jiang Yueyang was just about to grumble about why the morning court hadn't ended yet, when she heard the words "dismiss court".
[Great! If I rush to Guo Yuanzheng's house now, I might even be able to see the bride enter!]
Upon hearing this, Emperor Yuan paused in his movement to stand up.
Then he winked at Kong Jijiu, who was always self-disciplined and cautious and didn't like to join in the fun.
Kong Jijiu, who just wanted to join in the fun this time: "..."
For the sake of the overall situation, Kong Jijiu had no choice but to call out to Jiang Yueyang who was walking out quickly.
Jiang Yueyang turned around and said, "Master Jijiu, you called me?"
At this time, the third prince and the fifth prince trotted past her.
Several older men, including Duke Yingguo and Duke Suguo, also walked past him very nimbly and disappeared in a short while.
Guo Yuanzheng was stopped by several officials and told to wait until Jiang Yueyang left before running away, otherwise he would be suspected.
Jiang Yueyang was surprised and said, "The agile fat guy is really not just talk. But why are they running so fast?"
【…urgent to urinate.】
【Ah...then you must have been holding it in for a long time, and you're not afraid of getting hurt.】
Those who remained in the hall: "..."
Kong Jijiu cleared his throat and said, "Jiang Yueyang, come with me to Wenyuan Pavilion."
"Why?" Jiang Yueyang blurted out.
"Why?" Kong Jijiu asked, "Of course, because there's something I need you to do!"
"Is it urgent? If not..."
"It's urgent and must be completed today."
"Then can I..."
"No." Kong Jijiu interrupted her directly, not giving her a chance to bargain, "Come with me."
Jiang Yueyang immediately lowered his head, "Okay."
Minister Jiang, who was passing by, smiled and patted her hat. "Work hard, or the censor will impeach you for slacking off again."
On the other side, Emperor Yuan quickly changed out of his court robes and ordered people to prepare the carriage and horses immediately.
Xie Xu stood aside and watched silently. He would accompany the emperor whenever he traveled unless there were special circumstances.
As soon as he changed his clothes, he rode in a carriage towards the palace gate. After leaving the palace, he changed to a horse and rushed to Guo Yuanzheng's house.
At this time, Jiang Yueyang was being led by Kong Jijiu to Wenyuan Pavilion, while the three princes and their brothers had already run to the palace gate.
They had no horses or carriages prepared beforehand and stopped for a moment.
"Third brother, are we going to run there?"
"Of course not. I am tired even if you are not." He looked around and locked his eyes on a carriage. "Let's take the Duke of England's carriage."
As soon as he finished speaking, he went straight to the Duke of England's carriage.
The British public coachman knew them, so he quickly got off the carriage and bowed to them.
"I greet the two Your Highnesses."
The third prince waved his hand, then jumped onto his horse, pulling the clumsy fifth prince up with him.
The driver looked at them in confusion. What were they doing?
"Don't just stand there, go to Guo Yuanzheng's house."
Hearing this, the coachman was stunned and said "oh" twice, then got into the carriage and was about to whip it.
But he paused halfway through swinging the whip, "Your Highnesses, my master..."
At this time, the Duke of England, who was some distance behind, shouted, "Who are you, little thief, to have the audacity to seize my carriage?"
The Third Prince stuck his head out of the car window and said, "Duke of England, who are you calling a little thief?"
The British Duke suddenly braked, raising a cloud of dust.
The Third Prince saw him stop and urged him, "Duke Ying, run, or I won't wait for you anymore."
The Duke of England immediately regained his composure and began to run, but the Third Prince turned and urged the coachman, "Hurry up, hurry up."
The coachman hesitated for a moment between the two princes and his master, then swung his whip and the carriage started moving.
"Bastard!" the Duke of England cursed.
Finally, the Duke of England climbed onto the carriage while it was moving.
He panted and said, "Tomorrow...tomorrow I will definitely report to your Highnesses."
"Oh~" The third prince didn't care at all.
The Duke of England was so angry that his teeth were itching, but he had no way to deal with him.
Not far outside, Qingming, Qingzhi and Guyu, who had returned from Yuanqi yesterday, all looked at the rapidly moving carriage with confusion in their eyes.
What's going on here?
As soon as he finished thinking, Emperor Yuan's carriage appeared at the palace gate.
Emperor Yuan jumped down from the carriage, jumped on the horse and galloped away with Xie Xu.
Then, a group of adults ran out, shouting as they ran: "Quick, quick, pull the carriage over here!"
Finally, a group of adults climbed into their own carriages and headed in the same direction.
Qingzhi asked curiously, "What happened in the palace? Is the girl okay?"
"No, I just saw a smile on the face of our adults." Qingming thought for a moment, "I guess the girl may have eaten some interesting melon again, and they rushed to see the fun."
"Oh~ I see. The girl was forced to stay in the palace by them."
Qingming coughed twice and said, "The girl can't come out for a while, I'm going to buy something to eat. What do you want to eat? Mutton pie?"
"You're not feeling well, so I'll go."
Qingzhi was about to get off the carriage, but Qingming gently pushed her back into it.
"Stay inside and don't get cold."
Guyu glanced around at the two of them. What happened between them during the days he was away?
On the other side, Emperor Yuan's cheeks were hurt by the cold wind, but this did not slow him down at all in his rush to watch the fun.
After a while, he and Xie Xu surpassed the Third Prince and others who were running in the front.
Seeing this, the Third Prince urged, "Run faster, run faster."
As soon as he finished speaking, a horse ran past the carriage quickly. It was Guo Yuanzheng who wanted to stop this farce.
In order to get back as quickly as possible, Guo Yuanzheng unloaded the horse from his carriage.
With Emperor Yuan leading the way, he ran very fast.
More than half a quarter of an hour later, Emperor Yuan and Xie Xu pulled the reins in front of Guo Yuanzheng's house, followed closely by Guo Yuanzheng.
Seeing that there was no one in front of the door, the three of them knew without hesitation that Mrs. Guo had not yet returned to pick up the bride.
Guo Yuanzheng breathed a sigh of relief, adjusted his horse's head and wanted to go find his wife.
But he suddenly remembered something. He seemed to have no idea where his first love lived.
Therefore, Guo Yuanzheng could only wait here anxiously with Emperor Yuan and others.
After a while, the third prince and others arrived.
Carriages stopped here one after another, gradually attracting several neighbors.
"Did something happen at Doctor Guo's house? Why are so many people here?"
"Looking at them, it doesn't look like anything happened. It looks like they're waiting for someone."
"This morning I heard from the servants in the mansion that Doctor Guo's family seemed to be having a wedding, but I didn't believe it. Could it really be a wedding?"
"No. If there's really a happy event, how could Doctor Guo still be on duty at the palace today?"
"I do not know."
"I have nothing to do today, so let's wait and see."
"Hahaha... Look, the people from the Fang family, the head clerk of the Imperial College next door, have also come out to watch the fun."
"That's really strange. Don't they never join in the fun?"
"Today's scene is quite large. I guess they can't help themselves. Besides... Master Fang is not at home right now."
"Hehe~"
