As the autumn wind blows, the sweet fragrance of osmanthus fills the air in Shengjing City.
The interior and exterior of Prince Qi's mansion were covered with red silk, and large red wedding characters were pasted on the rosewood window frames.
Three days later, it will be the wedding day of the Princess of Qi's Mansion and Princess Pingrou's youngest son, Prince Lu.
Inside Chunjiang Courtyard.
Qi Yuning tried on the wedding dress that had just been sent by the Shanggong Bureau. The bright red dress made her skin look whiter and her appearance even more stunning.
The maid Jingzhe came to report: "Princess, Princess Baozhu has brought you a gift."
Before anyone could pass on the message, Lu Baozhu, dressed in a pomegranate skirt, rushed into the courtyard.
Lu Baozhu couldn't help but smile: "You're wearing your wedding dress already? It seems you're quite satisfied with this marriage. Then you should thank me a lot. I pestered my grandfather for a long time to help you get this marriage."
Lu Baozhu is the elder sister of Qi Yuning's fiancé Lu Yun. Qi Yuning and Lu Baozhu have not gotten along since childhood. Qi Yuning felt that Lu Baozhu had ulterior motives in the marriage she asked for him.
Before Qi Yuning could wonder what Lu Baozhu's evil intentions were, Lu Baozhu burst into laughter, gloating over her misfortune.
"Qi Yuning, after you marry into our Lu family, you will have to serve your unmarried sister-in-law! When the time comes, I will sit down to eat, and you will have to stand and serve me. Whatever I want to do, you, as my sister-in-law, will have to serve me... This princess is thinking about the beautiful and happy days in the future, and she is looking forward to you, my sister-in-law, marrying into our Lu family as soon as possible."
Qi Yuning raised her eyebrows. As a newly married daughter-in-law, she really had to serve her elder sister-in-law after marriage.
Lu Baozhu's plan was extremely vicious.
Lu Baozhu's plan was about to succeed, and she laughed extremely wildly. Thanks to her beauty, she looked beautiful even when she laughed so wildly.
Seeing Lu Baozhu laughing, Qi Yuning said coldly, "Be careful, too much joy can lead to sorrow!"
Lu Baozhu said, "How could that be? His Majesty has issued an imperial decree granting marriage, and there are only three days left for the divorce. Do you still dare to defy the order and refuse to marry? So, you should prepare to serve me, your elder sister-in-law, well after you get married!"
"Princess, something terrible has happened!"
Lichun stumbled in.
Seeing the most stable maidservant beside her so panicked, Qi Yuning frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
Lichun gasped breathlessly, "Princess, Prince Lu, Prince Lu has become a monk and has declared that he would rather become a monk than marry you!"
"What?" Lu Baozhu stood up. Does Lu Yun want to die?
Qi Yuning suppressed his anger, clutched his handkerchief tightly with both hands and said, "Prepare the carriage."
…
On Longhua Mountain, the autumn scenery is breathtakingly beautiful. The gurgling streams in the valley and the sound of bells ringing in the ancient temple are refreshing.
However, the children of noble families who came to Xianglin Temple today had no time to appreciate the beautiful autumn scenery, and they all gathered outside the gate of Xianglin Temple to watch the fun.
"Prince Lu, are you really going to become a monk? Once you shave your head, there's no turning back."
Lu Yun, kneeling before the Buddha, stroked his long black hair and said with his eyes closed, "Shave it off. Being a monk is much better than marrying Princess Qi."
Qi Yuning's grandfather Qi Yang put down the Kang'an Rebellion, protected the precarious country, and helped the current emperor ascend the throne. Emperor Shi Yuan appreciated Qi Yang's contribution and named Qi Yang as the King of Qi, a king of a different surname, and the title was hereditary.
When Qi Yuning was young, her grandfather, parents and mother all died in the Northern Desert, leaving only Qi Yuning and her brother. Emperor Shi Yuan then named Qi Yuning Princess Qi.
Therefore, the current Queen treats Qi Yuning particularly well, and Princess Qi can get whatever she wants in Shengjing City!
Marrying Qi Yuning is like marrying an ancestor home!
A year ago, the Eighth Prince offended Princess Qi with his words and had both his legs broken by Qi Yuning. Instead of punishing Qi Yuning, His Majesty also demoted the Eighth Prince to the miserable place of Cangzhou.
Lu Yun was terrified when he learned about the marriage. His eighth uncle was a prince but his leg was broken. He was just the emperor's grandson. If he really married Qi Yuning, he would never have a comfortable life.
Lu Yun could only allow his long hair to be shaved off and scattered on the ground, and then have his hair burned on him to become a monk.
"Princess Qi is used to being so arrogant, but now she's made a huge joke. Her fiancé would rather become a monk than marry her, hahahaha!"
"Who made Princess Qi so arrogant on a daily basis? Now that her wedding is imminent and her husband has become a monk, who could have imagined that one day Princess Qi would become an abandoned woman?"
"The high and mighty Princess Qi has become an abandoned woman. I wonder if she will even have the nerve to appear at banquets in the future."
The young men from the noble families who were watching the scene, who had never dared to say a word against Princess Qi in the past, now found an opportunity to take advantage of her misfortune and laugh at her.
They only felt a chill behind them, and in the blink of an eye, they saw a stunningly beautiful woman in a bright red wedding dress slowly approaching them, frightening everyone into silence.
Qi Yuning always has a superior demeanor, and her bright red wedding dress makes her look even more noble.
Qi Yuning entered the Buddhist temple and saw the bald Lu Yun. Qi Yuning felt it was ridiculous that her fiancé had actually become a monk a few days before the wedding.
Seeing Qi Yuning in front of him, Lu Yun took a deep breath and said, "Qi Yuning, I have become a monk. I will never marry you!"
A whisper came from the crowd: "Qi Yuning is wearing this wedding dress. Is she going to take the ordained Prince Lu back home to get married? She has already become a monk."
"Prince Lu has already become a monk, so what's the point of Qi Yuning still not giving up?"
Qi Yuning clasped her hands tightly, her nails painted with nail polish digging into her flesh. In her eighteen years of life, this was the first time she had suffered such a great humiliation.
Qi Yuning stepped forward, raised her hand and slapped her fiancé Lu Yun hard in the face.
Lu Yun covered his palm and looked at Qi Yuning in disbelief: "You hit me? How dare you hit me? I am a prince personally appointed by His Majesty."
