On this day in Southern Liang, before the sun rose, the palace was already bustling with activity as the two princes were getting married.
Xiao Hanyi didn't sleep well last night. He tossed and turned, and chaotic images kept appearing in his mind. He was killed, and the Beiliang army attacked the palace...
Queen Wang also woke up early. She was not in good health. Although the stab from Concubine Heng did not hit the vital part, she was still injured. It would have been fine if she just took good care of herself, but so many things had happened recently that her heart could not be at peace for a moment.
In Yuxiu Palace, the palace maids were holding several pieces of clothing.
Guo Xiner was holding Xiao Jiayun while they were choosing clothes. Xiao Jiayun immediately fell in love with the bright green one with a pair of dragons and phoenixes embroidered on it, which was very generous. However, today was the day when the bride wore green, and since others were going to congratulate her, she should wear warm colors.
"Do you like this?" Guo Xiner asked the little girl in her arms with gentle eyes.
Xiao Jiayun grinned and said, "Yes, yes, mother, I like the green one."
How festive!
Guo Xiner walked over to a set of light red clothes and asked, "What do you think of this one?"
It would be so cute for a baby to wear red and pink things, why would he wear green?
Xiao Jiayun took one look and then closed her eyes in protest. If she was asked to wear this pink thing today, she would, hum, cry loudly.
I don’t like it. I don’t like it.
Xiao Jiayun's appearance made Guo Xiner laugh. Such a small thing, who couldn't even speak a word, had learned to protest.
Guo Xiner gently pinched the little girl's cheek and said, "We'll wear whichever one you like in the end, okay?"
Xiao Jiayun opened his eyes and thought that this was pretty good.
But Guo Xiner still didn't give up and continued to choose.
"My dear, look at this orange one. It's embroidered with..."
Before Guo Xiner finished speaking, Xiao Jiayun covered her ears with her chubby little hands and smiled at her.
I don’t want to listen, mother will recite the scriptures!
Huh? This kid really doesn't listen to advice at all!
She is indeed his father's biological daughter. Guo Xiner thought of Xiao Hanyi's stubbornness, gritted her teeth, and spat lightly, "You..."
Afterwards, she asked the nanny to dress Xiao Jiayun. It was fine to wear big green, but today was the wedding day for her two brothers.
However, when Xiao Jiayun was dressed, Guo Xiner's eyes lit up. This doll was so exquisite that it didn't seem real. No matter how good the painter was, he couldn't depict her daughter's temperament. She walked forward and couldn't help but kissed her a few times.
Guo Xiner chose a phoenix-tail skirt with a pattern of butterflies and flowers, and a yellow jade butterfly hairpin.
When she carried Xiao Jiayun to Weiyang Palace, Queen Wang and Concubine Heng were sitting on either side of Xiao Hanyi, with Concubine Heng's seat slightly lower.
Today, she should have sat on the lower side, but the emperor still gave her enough respect.
Guo Xiner bowed and turned to see the three princesses. She was almost shocked. Why were they all dressed in green? And even had a green-hearted peony in their hair?
Look at the little person in my arms again, um, a real sister!
…
Dingguo Gongfu.
Chen Langqing was in tears, "Mother, I will not get married. I want to be by your side and accompany you forever."
A look of pride flashed across the face of the wife of Duke Dingguo. The concubine's daughter she had personally trained was quite good!
"You child, you are talking nonsense. Today is your big day. Mother only hopes that you and the Second Prince can go hand in hand and grow old together," said the wife of Duke Dingguo with a kind face.
But a sense of sadness welled up in her heart, because this marriage was originally for her daughter.
She had tried her best to protect her daughter, but who knew...
Fortunately, those people are dead!
"Auspicious time has arrived"
Following a shout, Lady Dingguo covered Chen Langqing with the veil and said, "Go!"
Chen Langqing bowed, then was helped out of the door by the nanny and got into the bridal sedan.
But under the veil, Chen Langqing revealed a cruel look, completely losing his previous submissiveness.
For so many years, she pretended to be nice to her elder sister and fawned on her in front of her mother.
She was originally going to be the concubine of Marquis Xuanping, who was old enough to be her grandfather. It was all the idea of that good sister.
It was not her fault for the outcome. Chen Langqing raised the corners of her mouth and applauded herself for her good move. From now on, she would be the Second Prince's wife and she would no longer have to look at the Marquis's face!
The sedan chair was moving when it suddenly stopped. Chen Langqing was puzzled and asked in a low voice, "Why did it stop?"
The maid outside the door replied, "Miss, our sedan chair collided with the one from the Liu Mansion."
Chen Langqing said without hesitation, "Tell the sedan bearers to let her go first."
"But girl..."
"go!"
Chen Langqing said hurriedly that Liu Qian was the eldest sister-in-law and the Crown Princess, so why should she argue with her about these things.
"She is just a concubine's daughter," the maid outside muttered.
Chen Langqing lifted the curtain and glanced at her with a cold gaze, "A concubine's daughter?"
What's wrong with a concubine's daughter? Humph, if men don't want to have concubines, why don't they just not take concubines? But they take concubines in one after another, and then humiliate the daughters after they give birth to them. What's the logic!
On the other side, Liu Xi also knew the situation in the sedan chair. She said to the window, "Don't argue with her. If she wants to go first..."
"Miss, Duke Dingguo's sedan chair has retreated a few steps."
Before Liu Xi finished her words, the nanny replied. She was surprised and thought to herself, this woman is not bad. If the two of them were to switch places, she would definitely retreat.
The bridal sedan chair moving backwards is something that no one can tolerate.
It’s amazing!
