The phoenix crown on her head was inlaid with eighty-eight pearls from the East China Sea, which shimmered under the candlelight, all of which flaunted her nobility and aloofness, like the bright moon rising above the dark clouds.

It must be said that the workmanship of this wedding dress is truly excellent. The slender waist paired with this wedding dress makes her look absolutely stunning.

"Crown Princess? Crown Princess, wake up."

The maid behind him shook Murong Ning, who was dozing off, and called out softly.

"What? Is it finished?"

Murong Ning reached out to rub her eyes, but was quickly stopped by the maid beside her, "Your Highness, you mustn't."

Murong Ning then realized what was happening and looked at the woman in the bronze mirror with slight surprise. Was this her? How did she become so beautiful?

"Your Highness, have some glutinous rice balls to fill your stomach, otherwise you won't have time to eat when His Highness the Crown Prince comes." The maid beside her interrupted her thoughts, and Murong Ning quickly nodded and finished the whole bowl of glutinous rice balls.

"Um, is there any more?"

"Your Highness, there is still some left."

"Another half bowl, please."

The maid beside her was somewhat surprised; the Crown Princess looked so small, how could she eat so much?

He took the bowl, and soon there was a second bowl left. Murong Ning finished it without hesitation and stretched.

When will Jun Lintian arrive?

Murong Ning asked, and the maids beside him lowered their heads and remained silent, thinking to themselves, "The Crown Princess dares to address His Highness the Crown Prince by his given name. She's too bold."

Sensing something amiss, Murong Ning added, "Is what you mean, the Crown Prince hasn't arrived yet?"

"Your Highness, His Highness will arrive at the auspicious time."

"Alright, then this princess will sleep a little longer."

Without waiting for the maids' reply, he lay down on the soft couch. The maids looked at each other, not daring to utter another sound.

The Eastern Palace.

Urged by the Empress, Jun Lintian changed into his wedding attire. The red robe shimmered with light, and his handsome face radiated brilliance.

The Empress's eyes reddened as she looked on. "Tian'er, the auspicious time is almost here. It's time to set off."

"good."

Soon Jun Lintian mounted his tall horse and set off with the wedding procession.

The procession marched out in a grand procession. Zhenyuan, as the only heir apparent, also changed into festive robes and followed the Crown Prince to greet the Crown Princess.

Inside the princess's residence.

"Second Master, the palace people have come three times today, but the young lady still hasn't returned... What should we do?" Qingling asked.
