The huge hall is dotted with festive and cheerful red, with a large red character in the center and a pair of auspicious candles with dragon and phoenix patterns next to it.
Shen Yuerong and Chi Mu stood side by side, holding red silk in their hands, listening to the matchmaker's singing.
"Today is a good time for marriage, the man and the woman are happily married, and will spend the rest of their lives together in joy..."
"First bow to heaven and earth, second bow to parents, husband and wife bow to each other..."
After the tedious ceremony, Shen Yuerong was not sent to the bridal chamber immediately, but stood in front of the emperor.
The emperor waved his hand casually, and someone presented a gift, which was eighty-eight large pearls from the East China Sea, ten sets of red coral headpieces, and a house of one hundred acres...
The Queen's gifts followed closely, each one more generous than the last.
As the father-in-law announced loudly, everyone cast envious glances at Shen Yuerong and Chi Mu.
After this wedding banquet, no one dared to look down on Shen Yuerong anymore.
Before, because Shen Yuerong was getting married for the second time, she was questioned and looked down upon by many people. They always felt that Chi Mu would dislike Shen Yuerong sooner or later.
But today, when the gifts from the Emperor and the Empress were delivered, these people's doubts and contempt were completely dispelled.
Shen Yuerong stood there with a red veil on her head, and her eyes couldn't help but feel sore.
If my father and mother were here, it would probably be the same.
But she quickly calmed down and bowed and thanked Chi Mu together.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, the Queen, for the reward!"
After all the gifts were given, Chi Mu sent people to deliver boxes of things, and took Shen Yuerong's hand to the dozen boxes.
"Rong'er, these are all my assets. I'm handing them over to you today. I'll trouble you to take care of them in the future."
To show his seriousness, Chi Mu ordered people to open them one by one, and inside were silver bills, land deeds, and house account books, neatly stacked there.
The people around couldn't help but gasp, and now they looked at Shen Yuerong with eyes full of admiration and respect.
In the crowd, Du Wan wanted to come out with her child in her arms to cause trouble, but Fang Mu held a dagger against her waist.
"Today is the princess's great day, don't even think about causing trouble, just follow me."
Fang Mu took her away from the crowd and escorted her directly to the carriage and sent her back to the mansion.
Shen Yuerong knew nothing about this because she had already been sent to the bridal chamber.
Inside the exquisitely decorated room, one can see bright red festive light, with peach blossoms and blue and white porcelain serving on the side.
Qinghua asked with concern: "Are you hungry? Are you thirsty? I'll get you some water."
Shen Yuerong only felt dizzy and her body ached. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart that getting married was really not something that ordinary people could do.
Just carrying the phoenix coronet and bridal robe weighing dozens of kilograms is hard enough.
She hadn't had time to eat anything from morning till now, and was now growling with hunger. She immediately asked Qinghua to prepare food.
The door creaked open, and Shen Yuerong thought it was Qinghua coming in, but she saw a pair of black shoes and boots.
A full plate of roast chicken was handed to Shen Yuerong from under the red veil, and Chi Mu's doting and gentle voice came over.
"I think you must be tired after a busy day, so I'll bring you some food."
Shen Yuerong took the roast chicken and smiled helplessly.
"I have to lift the veil later. If I eat the roast chicken and my mouth is full of oil, it will be a joke."
"A dignified prince actually married a roast chicken princess."
She covered her lips and chuckled, and Chi Mu also laughed out loud.
"No problem, then I'll be the roast chicken king."
The laughter of the two echoed in the side room. After accompanying Shen Yuerong to eat the roast chicken, Chi Mu couldn't help but give her a few instructions.
"If you feel uncomfortable, you can take off your veil. You have already lifted it just now."
"You are the princess. If anyone bullies you, you can complain to me. I like it."
His last words made Shen Yuerong couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Okay, I know. If you feel uncomfortable, I will find a way. You should go out and entertain the guests as soon as possible."
After Chi Mu walked out of the room, he did not forget to come back and explain.
"Just bear with me for a while, I'll be back soon."
After he left the room, his figure streaked across the corridor like a meteor, and he came directly to the front, pulled the matchmaker over and walked towards the bridal chamber.
Matchmaker could only trot behind Chi Mu, and was already out of breath when she arrived at the side room.
"Your Majesty is really anxious, please wait a moment."
After finally adjusting her breathing, the matchmaker walked in with the palace maids and began the ceremony.
If Chi Mu hadn't wanted to give Shen Yuerong a complete wedding, he would have already lifted the mandarin duck veil and untied Shen Yuerong's heavy phoenix crown and bridal robe to let her feel a little more relaxed.
Under the dim light, Chi Mu lifted the veil as the matchmaker chanted, and saw Shen Yuerong's bright and charming face. He couldn't take his eyes away, her eyes were too bright.
"My lady is so beautiful."
Shen Yuerong smiled shyly, indicating that the matchmaker and the palace maids were still here, and at the same time, a sweet feeling flowed through her heart.
After drinking the wedding wine, Chi Mu could not wait to drive out the matchmaker and the palace maids, took off the phoenix coronet and bridal robe for Shen Yuerong, and slowly rubbed her neck and forehead.
Chi Mu couldn't help but stare at Shen Yuerong's skin with marks on it with distress, "I should have asked someone to order a lighter one. Does it hurt?"
He reached out and touched her, his heart and eyes filled with doting and loving affection, almost completely drowning Shen Yuerong.
Shen Yuerong smiled gently to remind Chi Mu.
"You should go outside and greet the guests, lest someone say anything about you later."
Chi Mu also understood that he should indeed go out to greet the guests, but he couldn’t bear to leave Shen Yuerong, so he pulled her into his arms with a deep voice.
"I'll be back soon."
Soon, Chi Mu strode away and the door was closed. Shen Yuerong then sat down at the table and ate slowly.
