After becoming a concubine, she lived a miserable life every day.

Chapter 239 Canonization Ceremony

Having just ascended the throne, it was normal to be tired because of the complicated things. However, she was a little surprised that Qi Heng didn't go to Chu Qingqing's place, but came to her place instead? Qiao Rongjin didn't dwell on this question for a few seconds, and then put it out of her mind. Anyway, as long as he didn't disturb her sleep, it would be fine.

However, she was still quite satisfied that this guy came sneaking in at night, otherwise if the Queen and the concubines in the harem knew about this, they would definitely be jealous, especially the Queen. Now was the time for a new official to take office and she might even be embarrassed.

She was lazy and afraid of trouble, so she usually wanted to stay away from troublesome things. If no one knew about this guy's coming, she would never let him stay for several nights and would have started looking for excuses to drive him away.

In a blink of an eye, a month had passed. The ceremony of enthroning the queen and the ceremony of enthroning the crown prince were over quickly. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had already moved into the East Palace, and a few days later, the ceremony of enthroning Qiao Rongjin as the imperial concubine arrived.

On the day of the enthronement ceremony, Qiao Rongjin put on a gorgeous dress that had taken about two months to sew in the palace embroidery room, and put on a set of gorgeous and exquisite headdress that Emperor Chengming had asked Wang Fuyang to personally deliver. Then, she was accompanied by the guard of honor to the place where she was to be enthroned.

Standing on the high platform, Qiao Rongjin looked at the gazes of the people below, and couldn't help feeling dazed for a moment.

Thinking about the time when she first traveled through time, her past life, and everything that happened after she traveled through time, all the scenes flashed through her mind like a fleeting video. Qiao Rongjin felt complicated, but when her eyes saw a small figure again, she felt a little warm in her heart, and she smiled unguardedly in that direction.

She didn't know how much impact this smile would have on the people below and the emperor on the stage.

At this moment, the same thought flashed through everyone's mind: A smile looking back is brighter than the stars.

Qiao Rongjin felt the eyes on her, but she did not pay too much attention to it and just waited quietly for the instructions of the ceremonial officer.

After all, what follows is a whole complicated process. Although she remembers it roughly, she still needs to concentrate in order to avoid making mistakes.

Qiao Rongjin patiently listened to the Minister of Rites reading out the edict, which was full of praise for herself. Qiao Rongjin listened without blushing or feeling nervous. Then she kowtowed and accepted the golden edict and golden seal, which marked that she, Qiao Rongjin, had become the imperial concubine of Emperor Chengming.

Qiao Rongjin had heard before that there seemed to be a ritual for paying homage to the empress, but she did not see the empress until the enthronement ceremony was over.

Holding the golden book and golden seal that symbolized the noble concubine's position, Qiao Rongjin did not feel excited or happy at all. She was just the same as usual. However, she smiled when she saw her son's bright eyes.

During the enthronement ceremony just now, her son had been looking at her. In addition, she also felt that there were a few more passionate gazes than those of others. However, she did not look at them much at the time, but guessed that they were from her father and brother.

"Ajin."

Hearing this, Qiao Rongjin stopped talking to his son and turned to look at Emperor Chengming.

"I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

"My son, I will meet my father."

Both mother and son bowed down in worship.

Qinglian, Xiao Yuanzi and others behind him also bowed and saluted respectfully.

At this time, the enthronement ceremony had just ended and the ministers present had not yet left, so this scene naturally caught their eyes.

Looking at the woman who was completely different and dazzling today, Qi Heng's heartbeat became uncontrollably faster and faster, so he couldn't help but come over to find her.

Thinking of the astonished glances cast at the woman in front of him today, Qi Heng felt a little unhappy. He wanted to hide Ajin's beauty and only see it by himself. Today, her beauty was completely different from before, and it was a beauty Qi Heng had never seen before.

When he saw her, he strode forward, took her hand and pulled her up.

"Ajin, there's no need to be so polite." Qi Heng stared at the person in front of him with a fiery gaze. At this moment, his heart and eyes were filled with the person in front of him. Looking at that rare beautiful face with full makeup, after getting closer, the beauty was even more striking. Qi Heng couldn't help but rubbed the soft and tender hand in his palm.

Qiao Rongjin felt the pervert's gaze and the strange feeling in his palm, but he remained calm and said in a crisp voice, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Qi Heng then realized that there were other people around, and immediately said, "Everyone stand up."

Upon seeing this, all the ministers quickly left the scene. Otherwise, if His Majesty knew that they were watching, he would probably find work for them to do, so it was better for them to slip away quickly.

"Ajin, can I go to your place for dinner tonight?" Qi Heng asked, looking at Qiao Rongjin expectantly.

Qiao Rongjin naturally noticed Qi Heng's cautiousness and nodded with a smile, "Okay, I'll ask the imperial kitchen to make something you like."

Hearing this, Qi Heng was happy and couldn't help but hold Qiao Rongjin's hand tighter.

Qi You didn't even bother to watch, he just took a few steps back and walked slowly.

Thinking about the other token that his grandfather gave him before his death, Qi You planned to talk to his father later.

Now that he is in the palace, many things are difficult to do, so he needs to get a token that allows him to enter and leave the palace freely.

It just so happens that this person is coming to Jingyang Palace for dinner tonight, which is a good time to bring it up.

Dinner time.

Qi Heng came as expected.

The three of them had a rare warm meal. Qi Heng was the busiest one. He kept picking up food for Qiao Rongjin and Qi You. He was very attentive, which made Qiao Rongjin think that he wanted to ask her for something. But thinking that he was the emperor now, what could he ask of others? After ruling this out, Qiao Rongjin thought that this man must have other intentions, but what could she want from him?

"Eat this, Jin, eat more meat."

Qiao Rongjin glanced at him, lowered his head and started eating obediently, occasionally picking up a piece of food for Qi Heng with his chopsticks.

Qi You pretended not to see anything. He ate the dishes he liked and put them aside if he didn't like them.

After dinner was over, Qi You spoke, "Father, I have something to tell you."

Hearing this, Qiao Rongjin and Qi Heng looked at Qi You in surprise, especially Qiao Rongjin.

She knew very well what her son's attitude was towards his biological father Qi Heng, but today he said this out of character. What's the big deal?

Qi Heng was even more surprised than Qiao Rongjin. This was the first time this kid did this. He was a little curious, so he suppressed his desire to chat with Ah Jin. He nodded and said, "Okay, tell me what's the matter. Father is listening."

"Let's talk in the study." Qi You said.

Qi Heng raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, let's go to the study."

Qiao Rongjin watched the interaction between the father and son silently without saying a word. Finally, he smiled and saw them off and went to the study.

Seeing this, Aunt Wu and Qinglian looked at Qiao Rongjin curiously.

Qiao Rongjin glanced at the two of them and shrugged, "I don't know either."

It's normal for her son to have little secrets as he grows up. Although she is the child's mother, she cannot interfere too much.

study.

Looking at the box handed over by his son, Qi Heng was surprised and puzzled.
