Chapter 160 The Third Prince’s Wedding
"Hurry, Jinghe, let's hurry up, the time is almost up."
The little girl Jinghe is growing up now and knows how to love beauty. When she learned that today is a good day for her third brother to get married, she got up early and started preparing the clothes she would wear later.
"Mother, I am fine now. Look at me, am I handsome today?"
"Beautiful, beautiful, my mother's tranquility is the most beautiful."
Chen Meizhuang smiled and tapped her forehead. This clever little girl's personality was a little different from hers now. She was much more lively.
"Huan'er, why are you here?"
Just as Shen Meizhuang turned around and was about to take Jinghe out, she saw Zhen Huan. She hurried forward to support her, feeling sorry for her because she was pregnant, and quickly asked her to sit down and rest for a while.
"Today is the Third Prince's big day. I was so happy that I couldn't sleep. I got up early and thought there was nothing to worry about, so I came to see you."
Zhen Huan patted Shen Meizhuang's hand and told her to relax. She felt that she had felt much better in the past few days.
"Don't think too much about today's wedding. I think there will be a lot of people coming and going in the palace today. You are pregnant, so you must not let anyone disturb you."
"No, no, I have you guys. Besides, the main wedding banquet will be held in the Third Prince's mansion. The most we can do is to catch a glimpse of the newlyweds when they come to bid farewell to the Emperor."
This was indeed the case. When the auspicious time arrived, Lin Moran was carried in a wedding sedan chair around the city and arrived at the Third Prince's mansion. At this time, the Third Prince had already bid farewell to the emperor in the palace and returned to the mansion. He was standing at the door with a smile on his face waiting for the wedding sedan chair to land.
Ever since he met Lin Moran in Shen Meizhuang's palace, the Third Prince has been waiting for this moment to come. Now, he has finally got his wish.
"Welcome the new bride~~~"
With the support of Grandma Xi, Lin Moran walked down the sedan chair with light steps. Although her head was covered with a red veil, others could still feel the joy emanating from her.
The cumbersome process showed how important this marriage was. Lin Moran felt drowsy until he was helped into the new house.
Before the wedding, the Third Prince had invited Prince Guo to serve wine for him at his wedding banquet. Since the age difference between the two was not that big, Prince Guo liked this nephew who was a few years younger than him and accepted the task reluctantly.
The Third Prince found an excuse and finally slipped into the room. Now he looked at the person he was thinking about sitting quietly on the bed, and his heart couldn't help but surge with emotion.
He slowly walked in front of her and lifted the red veil on Lin Moran's head. At this moment, her face was fully revealed, her eyebrows were as distant and affectionate, and her eyes were like autumn water reflecting the stars, which instantly took the Third Prince's breath away. The two looked at each other, and sparks of happiness flashed in their eyes.
The Third Prince gently held Lin Moran's hand and said softly, "From now on, I will use my whole life to protect you. Ran'er, thank you for marrying me."
Lin Moran lowered her head shyly, her face flushed slightly, and she responded softly: "Husband, spending my life with you is the greatest blessing in the world."
The Third Prince kissed Lin Moran's forehead affectionately and hugged her gently. Their heartbeats gradually became synchronized, as if the whole world had stopped for them.
As the night deepens, the candlelight flickers in the room, and a night of spring begins.
The next morning, Lin Moran woke up early. She still remembered her mother's repeated instructions before she got married, telling her to prepare everything for her husband after marriage and not to act like a child.
"What's wrong? It's still early, rest for a while."
Perhaps Lin Moran's actions startled the Third Prince, and he pulled her back again when Lin Moran was about to get up.
"It's getting late. I'll go prepare breakfast for His Majesty."
The third prince was conferred the title of prince by the emperor before his wedding, and he was the first among all the princes to be conferred the title of prince.
"No hurry, hold me for a while longer, there's still time."
He seemed to be still a little sleepy, and Hongshi's eyes were not fully open yet.
"Your Highness, I am getting up first. I need to go to the palace later to thank my mother and all the other ladies."
Even if Lin Moran was favored at home, she was still taught the proper rules by her family. She understood that after her wedding, she had to go to the palace to express her gratitude, and she must not lose her manners.
"Okay, let's get up together. Ran'er, I still like you to call me husband."
Hongshi no longer stayed in bed. He got up and called the maid to bring in the toiletries. Then he took Lin Moran to wash up simply, and then the two of them had breakfast together.
"My dear husband, let me change your clothes for you."
It was the first time that Lin Moran wore this kind of clothes. The costumes of the prince and his wife were very complicated. It took her a long time to get the hang of it. Fortunately, Hongshi was waiting patiently by her side.
"Husband, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Let's go."
Hongshi carefully helped Lin Moran onto the carriage, without any sign of displeasure from waiting on his face.
The nanny beside him quickly spoke out to stop Hongshi the moment he was about to help Lin Moran: "Your Highness, this is unreasonable."
How could a prince stoop to do such a thing for others?
Hongshi stared at her coldly and said, "This prince and the wife are one, so what's wrong with that?"
In the eyes of outsiders, the Third Prince was always modest and polite, but when he suddenly stared at her with such a fierce look, the nanny didn't dare to say anything else.
After arriving at the palace, according to etiquette, the Third Prince took Lin Moran to the Empress Dowager's palace first.
"Grandson pays his respects to the Imperial Grandmother, may the Imperial Grandmother be blessed with good health and happiness."
"The granddaughter-in-law pays her respects to the Imperial Grandmother. May the Imperial Grandmother be blessed with good health and happiness."
"Good, good boy, get up quickly and take a seat."
Looking at the perfect couple in front of her, the Queen Mother's eyes were full of smiles.
"Hongshi, you are now married and have a wife. You will surely live in harmony with her in the future. Ran'er, I will leave this grandson of mine to you to take care of. Hopefully, you will soon have children for Hongshi."
"Yes, Ran'er will definitely follow the teachings of the Imperial Grandmother."
"This is a small token of my love for you. I hope you two will be of one mind and one heart in the future."
"Thank you, Grandmother, for the reward."
The Empress Dowager had not been feeling well these days, so after the two of them had stayed for a while, she let them go to Jingren Palace.
"Go ahead. Your Empress Dowager must be waiting for you in Jingren Palace. Who knows, the Emperor might be there too."
"Then my grandson will take his leave."
Hongshi took Lin Moran away from Shoukang Palace. When he held her hand, he found that her palms were full of sweat.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Lin Moran let out a light breath.
"It's alright, my husband, don't worry. I'm just a little nervous. I didn't feel much when I met the Queen Mother with my cousin before, but today I'm extra nervous."
"Don't be afraid, I'll be with you."
Hongshi patted the back of her hand to comfort her. They smiled at each other, and Lin Moran suddenly felt the tension in her heart disappear.
