Busy times always pass quickly. After Concubine Jiang had been busy all night, the Shangyi Bureau finally delivered a wedding dress that satisfied her at dawn.
After cleaning Yonglin up, she quickly washed up and used a lot of powder to cover up the dark circles under her eyes and the sallow and oily skin from not sleeping all night.
Without even having time to eat breakfast, he dragged his tired body to see Yonglin off to get married.
The concubine could not leave the palace. She stood at the palace gate and watched her daughter walk away from her step by step. In the end, she shed tears of reluctance and worry.
After being nagged by Zhu all night, Jiang Shunyi finally came to his senses before dawn and thought of asking the imperial physician to give Jiang Junfan acupuncture to relieve the pain.
After the acupuncture, Jiang Junfan, who had been wailing all night, finally calmed down.
Although he was beaten so badly by Zhao Yiming that he could not move, he had to go to the palace gate in person to pick up the princess today.
But it was impossible for him to ride a horse in this state, so Zhu could only arrange for him to lie in the wedding sedan.
After tossing and turning all night, Jiang Junfan finally felt relieved thanks to the painkiller injection. He lay down in the wobbly wedding sedan and actually fell asleep.
When the wedding procession arrived at the palace gate, the matchmaker called out several times outside but couldn't wake her up.
He could only awkwardly ignore the thunderous snoring in the bridal sedan and said to Yonglin, "Young Master Jiang's situation is special. Your Highness, please be more accommodating."
Yonglin snorted coldly, pushed away the matchmaker who came to help her with a sullen face, and stepped into the bridal sedan chair.
The matchmaker was not annoyed at being pushed. Seeing that Yonglin was willing to get into the sedan chair, she hurriedly said some blessings to ease the awkwardness.
After getting out of the sedan chair, he secretly wiped the cold sweat off his forehead! Fortunately, the emperor did not come in person today, otherwise, I would be in danger!
In the Queen's Kunning Palace, the Emperor, who did not go to see Yonglin off, was enjoying a delicious breakfast with Yaoyao.
Seeing the queen looking outside with a worried look on her face, he sighed, took her hand and said, "Don't look. It's already this hour and everyone should have left the palace."
The Empress came to her senses and could not help but scold the Emperor, "Yonglin is a princess after all. This is the only marriage a girl can have in her life. It's fine if we don't go, but how can the Emperor order that no one in the palace can go?"
The Emperor snorted coldly! "The Jiang family is so filthy-minded. They caused such a scandal at the palace banquet. It's really unpleasant to watch. My granting of the marriage is already the greatest concession I have made. How dare you dream of anything else? Dream on!"
This is also a good reminder for the other princes and princesses, so they don't become more preoccupied as they grow older."
The Queen sighed, "In the blink of an eye, the children have grown up and have their own ideas."
Then, somewhat emotionally, he said, "In a few years, our Yao'er will be grown up. I really don't know what kind of husband we should find for her who can tolerate her temper."
As he said this, he pinched her soft face lovingly.
Yaoyao immediately pouted and protested, "Mother, you're such a fool! I'm not a petty person at all. I'm clearly a lovely and cheerful person. If someone marries me in the future, their ancestors will surely be blessed with peace and happiness."
The Queen was stunned by what she said, and then she pinched her face even harder, "You little girl, you don't know how to be shy."
The emperor was delighted by what she said and chimed in, "Yaoyao is right. She is my happy pill. From now on, I will definitely find the best husband for our happy pill Yaoyao."
Yaoyao was not polite at all. She pulled the emperor's dragon robe and said coquettishly, "Thank you, father."
The emperor, empress and their family of three were having a great time in Kunning Palace, but outside the palace, the wedding sedan was filled with dark clouds and lightning-fast movements.
Looking at Jiang Junfan sleeping soundly in the wedding sedan chair with saliva on the corner of his mouth, Yonglin angrily kicked him in the waist. The pain made Jiang Junfan howl like a pig through the sedan chair.
This shout startled the joy outside and stopped. On the busy street, everyone looked at each other in confusion.
Fortunately, Yonglin's chief palace maid was very tactful. She quickly worked with the matchmaker to smooth things over, and the music was played again, and the wedding procession set out again.
Inside the wedding sedan, Jiang Junfan opened his eyes and saw Yonglin sitting beside him in a bright red wedding dress. Only then did he realize that he had overslept the moment the bride got into the sedan.
The heart that was originally sullen and about to explode suddenly felt guilty, but because of Princess Yonglin's identity, she could only hold back her pain and put on a careful smile, "Cousin, what's wrong with you? Today is a good day for the two of us, don't be so angry!"
Yonglin snorted coldly! "You know today is a good day too! You slept in the wedding sedan until you drooled, and you even slept past the time when I got into the sedan. Why don't you think about the good day when others are laughing at me?"
Jiang Junfan also knew that the fault was his, but having seen countless women, he immediately made a decisive move and began to adjust his strategy, choosing to show weakness and gain sympathy.
"Cousin Yonglin, this is a special situation for me! I've been in so much pain these past few days, and I've been so worried about our wedding that I haven't slept for a few days. I just relaxed in the wedding sedan and fell asleep. It's my fault for making you feel wronged. I will treat you well from now on and compensate you as much as I can, okay?"
After saying that, he put on a painful expression and stretched out his hand, which was bruised and swollen from being beaten by Zhao Yiming, to pull Yonglin's hand.
Unfortunately, he was lying in the sedan chair and couldn't move at all. He couldn't reach Yonglin at all. After trying several times without success, he had to give up.
He looked at Yonglin with a guilty and helpless look on his face, "It's all my cousin's fault."
After all, she was just a little girl, and not very worldly-wise, so Jiang Junfan's few words of weakness successfully calmed Yonglin's anger.
Although she didn't take the initiative to hold Jiang Junfan's hand, she didn't say anything mean to him. She just looked at him worriedly, "How are you going to get married later if you're like this?"
Jiang Junfan's smile was forced. "Don't worry, cousin! Even if I had to crawl, I wouldn't let you get married to a rooster."
Yonglin was about to get angry, but then he remembered what he had heard before: in folk marriages, if the man was seriously ill, a rooster could be used instead of a wedding ceremony.
But in that case, the woman would marry into the family mostly to bring good luck to the man.
Given Jiang Junfan's current condition, if he were to marry the daughter of an ordinary family, the Jiang family might even use a rooster as a ceremony instead of a wedding ceremony.
But since the other party was a princess and the marriage was arranged by the emperor, they naturally didn't dare to do so.
But Yonglin obviously didn't think of this. She just thought that Jiang Junfan had feelings for her and would rather drag his sick body to get married than let her down by using a rooster.
However, Jiang Junfan did not crawl to the wedding with Yonglin, after all, he even had difficulty lying down.
So he was carried into the wedding hall on a bright red stretcher.
Because he couldn't move his whole body, several servants carried him and asked him to follow Yonglin during the ceremony. He just nodded slightly when bowing, and that was it.
He was probably the most relaxed groom in history. He was able to bow down to the bride just by lying down and nodding.
