Chapter 47 The Prince Consort's Prisoner (47)



Xiao Qi's words effectively reminded Ning Wan.

She vaguely realized that her previous emotion was very wrong, but she didn't think about it any further.

"A princess is always a princess, not anything else." Xiaoju didn't seem to understand what Ning Wan meant, and spoke with a slightly arrogant tone.

But in his heart, he secretly thought that as long as the princess was still alive, it was up to her to live however she wanted. Even if she became different from before, she was still his princess.

Xiaoju only believes that those who survive a great disaster will have good fortune in the future, but she does not believe in the so-called ghosts taking over other people's bodies.

The princess is such a good person, which ghost would be willing to take over her body?

Moreover, the princess's father and mother are protecting her, so I don't think those wild ghosts would have the courage to do so.

After hearing Xiaoju's words, Ning Wan just smiled, then reached out and tapped Xiaoju's forehead, "You're the only one who talks nonsense."

Xiaoju feigned pain and rubbed the spot Ning Wan had touched. "Princess, please don't change the subject. You haven't explained the reason to Xiaoju yet, so don't try to use this as an excuse to get rid of me."

Ning Wan knew she couldn't hide it any longer, and suddenly became serious, "I don't want Amu to wait any longer. The longer he waits, the more danger he'll face."

Shen Jingyi wanted to leave himself with no one to rely on, and then he would take the initiative to hand over the Phoenix Golden Hairpin in order to survive.

But this idea is destined to be wrong.

"But the princess will be in danger if this happens?" Xiaoju asked in confusion.

In her opinion, the emperor's return with his troops was a foregone conclusion. Even with the variable of the Phoenix Hairpin, there wouldn't be any major changes.

After all, as long as the Phoenix Hairpin is in hand, these people in the palace cannot touch their own princess at all.

But now, when the emperor returns to the palace safely, I'm afraid the first thing he will do is to interrogate the princess.

"...I just want him to be a little more unscrupulous..." As long as he was alive, he would be a bargaining chip for Ning Mu.

But if her bargaining chip is fake, would that make him more decisive?

This way you can finish your own work faster.

After hearing the answer, Xiaoju opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but Ning Wan's expression was too firm, causing the words Xiaoju wanted to say to get stuck in her throat, and she couldn't say them for a long time.

"Okay, Xiaoju, can't you just explain it clearly to Amu when the time comes?" Ning Wan looked at Xiaoju's extremely unnatural expression, chuckled, easing the tense atmosphere, and said in a comforting tone.

Hearing her princess say this, Xiaoju naturally couldn't make a sad face anymore. She forced a smile, which was considered as her agreement with Ning Wan's idea.

Seeing that Xiaoju no longer insisted on getting an answer, Ning Wan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The wedding day arrived as scheduled.

Before daybreak, the cold palace, which had been deserted, suddenly became bustling. A group of maids wearing relatively bright clothes pushed open the door and walked in, followed by a group of maids and eunuchs.

Xiaoju was pushed aside before she could even say a few words, and could only watch those people break into the room as if no one was around.

"Oh, Princess, today is your big day, you can't continue sleeping." The nanny walked to the front row, lifted Ning Wan's bed curtain, and spoke with a smile on her face.

He turned around and waved behind him.

The people behind him first bowed respectfully to Ning Wan, and then pulled the person out.

"How dare you! Who gave you the courage to disrespect this princess?" Ning Wan, who had just woken up, spoke with a girlish and innocent tone, without any deterrent power at all.

The nanny who gave the order smiled even more after hearing Ning Wan's words: "Princess, please don't blame me. Today is a good day. It would be bad if we were to delay."

As he spoke, he pulled Ning Wan up, and without paying any attention to the unhappy look on Ning Wan's face, he put on the wedding dress.

She was put on a phoenix robe and then taken to the dressing table.

It took Ning Wan two hours to put on her makeup. Seeing that she had more and more things on her head, she just wanted to reach out and pull out two of them.

However, he didn't expect that as soon as he stretched out his hand, he was noticed by the maids behind him.

"That won't do. How can the princess' hands be so clean?" As he said that, he found a pile of bracelets on the dressing table.

Ning Wan raised her eyebrows when she heard this: Is she hinting at something?

Xiao Qi: ...The host's train of thought is sometimes really too dark.

[Well, host, she simply thinks your hands are too plain.]

"It doesn't matter whether she is Su or not. I just want to know if Ning Mu can come to the capital today?" Ning Wan withdrew her thoughts and asked Xiao Qi who had suddenly come back to life.

[Xiao Qi can't guarantee it, but if nothing unexpected happens, it will work. The host can rest assured.]

Xiao Qi just wanted to say that instead of relying on others to escape this wedding, it would be better to escape by yourself.

"Can't guarantee it" or "You can rest assured"?

If nothing unexpected happens, something unexpected will happen.

Ning Wan didn't correct Xiao Qi's speech error, but looked at herself in the mirror.

Sure enough, the makeup done after four hours is indeed different from the usual casual makeup.

There was joy all around.

There were red cloths hanging on the beams, and red lanterns, windows, and palace walls were covered with festive paper-cuts.

The nanny kept muttering some words of blessing, and the eunuchs and maids beside her responded.

When everything was ready, a red veil fell on Ning Wan's head.

This was followed by the joyful sound of gongs and drums.

Xiaoju raised the corners of her mouth, and with a forced smile, she whispered in Ning Wan's ear: "Princess, how about..."

Before Xiaoju could finish, Ning Wan put her hand on him and whispered, "What are you afraid of? Don't forget, he was my consort before."

Xiaoju was stunned for a moment, then turned to support Ning Wan and got into the wedding sedan.

The princess was right, but wasn't it the face that looked so much like General Wu that he liked? Perhaps he didn't want to worry about her.

Shen Jingyi seemed to be serious about this, and didn't seem to be less polite just because Ning Wan was a princess from the previous dynasty. Every step he took was impeccable.

When night fell, Ning Wan returned to the familiar place again.

Sitting on the familiar bed.

Ning Wan rubbed her aching neck and thought to herself: Being a queen is really not something that an ordinary person can do.

But this action did not last long before it was stopped by the nanny in the room.

"Queen, you absolutely cannot do that. The veil can only be lifted after the Emperor arrives."

Ning Wan froze slightly and was about to say that her neck was a little sore, but was interrupted by the sound of a door being pushed open.

"Is the Queen impatient to wait?" Shen Jingyi, like Ning Wan, was dressed in a red robe, with his hair tied up, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and his eyes and eyebrows showed that he was in a good mood.
