Jiang Ziyi lifted a corner of the side curtain of the sedan and found that they were already a short distance away from Shen State.
The two countries were not particularly far apart. She had asked the maid in the palace before, and she was told that it would take at least five days to reach Yao Country.
She looked around and found it very empty, with no place for the killer to ambush. However, she did not dare to be careless about the people around her, in case the killer was hiding in the marriage team.
So before going to bed last night, she wrapped the bronze mirror that Caiyun had found for her into her inner clothes, making a simple heart-protecting mirror and tied it to her body. This way, even if someone wanted to shoot her, she should be able to block it.
Fortunately, the journey was relatively smooth, and we stopped and walked along the way until almost the fifth day.
Jiang Ziyi was woken up by Caiyun. As a person from the 22nd century, she was used to smooth means of transportation. Suddenly, she took a long ride in a carriage, which made her want to vomit. She could still eat something when staying at the post station at night, but once she got on the carriage, she could only sleep. She didn't even dare to eat for fear of vomiting.
And perhaps because she didn't have much connection with Xiao Jingyun in this life, the journey was relatively safe and nothing went wrong.
In her previous life, she was killed shortly after leaving the border of Shen State, and now no one came to kill her even though she was almost there. So the person who killed her in her previous life was most likely someone inside Shen State.
"Your Highness, we can see the border of Yao Kingdom ahead. We will reach Yao Kingdom in half a day." Caiyun looked at Jiang Ziyi's thin face and felt a little distressed.
Jiang Ziyi lifted the curtain on the side of the carriage. There were no green plants on the side of the road, only yellow soil and wind and sand. Just a glance at it made her feel that the wind and sand were a bit blinding.
Jiang Ziyi laughed secretly. No wonder the emperor was reluctant to let his real precious daughter marry him.
Compared with Shen Kingdom, Yao Kingdom is inferior to Shen Kingdom in all aspects except for its tough folk customs and strong military force. How could he bear to let Mingyue come here to suffer?
But she was different. The emperor had no father-daughter affection for her. Even though she was outstanding in appearance, she was just a beautiful chess piece.
The light in Jiang Ziyi's eyes dimmed. She didn't know if it was because of the original owner's body, but a sudden surge of hatred surged in her heart. She would not let those who abandoned her have an easy time.
"Caiyun, find me some food."
"Yes, Your Highness!" Caiyun had been worried that Jiang Ziyi's lack of food and drink in the car would affect her health, but she felt relieved when she saw His Highness actively asking for food. She immediately went to get some water and dry food.
Jiang Ziyi actually didn't have much of an appetite right now, but since they were already close to Yao Country, she had to cheer herself up and not appear in Yao Country in a sickly look.
When they were almost at the gates of Yaoguo, the marriage procession stopped to rest, and Jiang Ziyi got out of the carriage for some fresh air. Xiao Jingyun stood in the distance, watching her, wanting to say something but holding back. He hadn't tried to find opportunities to talk to Jiang Ziyi these past few days, but no matter what he said, Jiang Ziyi had an indifferent expression. She had always called him "Brother Jingyun" so affectionately before, but now she just called him "Young Master Xiao"...
This was hard for him to accept.
When the envoy from Yao Kingdom saw Jiang Ziyi get off the carriage, he also walked forward to talk to her.
He looked at Jiang Ziyi, who looked exhausted from the long journey. She was originally a fine jade, but now she looked like a pearl covered with dust.
"Princess Mingzhu, please don't be offended by this wind and sand. Once we enter the city, there will be no more evil winds."
"It's okay." After all, she wasn't raised in luxury, so Jiang Ziyi didn't care about the wind and sand.
The envoy of Yao Kingdom looked at Jiang Ziyi quietly. The geographical environment of Shen Kingdom was much better than that of Yao Kingdom. He had thought that Jiang Ziyi would be spoiled and willful and act like a princess on the way to the marriage. However, what he expected did not happen. Instead, the journey was very smooth and she had no complaints about the bumps on the road, which made him look at her with a higher opinion of her.
"What kind of person is the Emperor of Yao Kingdom?"
The envoy laughed when he heard Jiang Ziyi's question.
"To judge His Majesty in private is a capital offense. The princess knows what kind of person His Majesty is after meeting and interacting with him in person."
"We will soon enter the border of Yao Nation. If Your Highness is ready, let's set off."
It seems that everything still needs to wait for her to see it in person.
Jiang Ziyi asked Caiyun Yunxia to help her change into her wedding dress, and then she combed her hair and put on a crown that symbolized a princess, and touched up her makeup before notifying the team to set off.
It would be a lie to say she wasn't worried about her situation at all. Although she had the fertility pills she bought from the system, she still needed to have sex with her target first. However, the current situation of Yao Nation was 0...
Forget it, there is no point in thinking too much. We can only deal with it as it comes.
The carriage for the marriage smoothly drove into the gate of Yao Kingdom. Just as the envoy said, the wind and sand became less severe after entering the city gate. Jiang Ziyi lifted a corner of the carriage curtain and found that the architecture in the city was very distinctive, with numerous earthen buildings crisscrossing each other, thus greatly reducing the intrusion of wind and sand.
Seeing the marriage procession approaching, the people of Yao Kingdom put down what they were doing and ran to join in the fun. The aisles were instantly filled with people, and everyone wanted to catch a glimpse of the beautiful face of the Princess of Shen Kingdom.
When the marriage procession arrived at the gate of Yaoguo Palace, Jiang Ziyi raised her hand and lifted the curtain of the carriage.
This was the first time Jiang Ziyi met him.
The man in the bright yellow dragon robe had sharp eyebrows and phoenix eyes, as if he was born with the aura of an iron-blooded emperor.
His face was not as rough as Mingyue said. Instead, he had delicate features and looked like a natural emperor.
This is her husband in this life.
The envoy saluted the man and reported what happened along the way, but Jiang Ziyi didn't hear anything because it was too far away.
The man looked at her, as if he had discovered that she had lifted the car curtain to peek at him. The corners of his mouth curved into a beautiful arc, as if it could melt even the wind and sand.
Jiang Ziyi quickly lowered the car curtain and stopped peeking out.
When you first arrive, it’s better to be shy.
As a courtesy, Yaoguo held a small banquet for the accompanying personnel from Shenguo, and Jiang Ziyi was taken away by the governess in the harem.
The moment Jiang Ziyi stepped out of the carriage, all the palace servants of Yao Kingdom were dazzled, because Jiang Ziyi was wearing a gorgeous wedding dress. The dress was made of the finest silk. The fine silk was woven into complex patterns, outlined by thin gold threads, and embellished with gorgeous jewels, sparkling with dazzling golden light.
The hem of her skirt, extending to the ground, was wide and stretched, making her look dignified and noble. Her long hair was combed softly and smoothly, and she wore a gorgeous golden crown on her head, inlaid with expensive pearls. The pearls emitted a bright luster like the tears of mermaids in the sea, which also demonstrated her identity and lineage, making her look noble and dignified.
