Seeing Princess Funing enter the hall, Prince Wen quickly stood up to greet her, smiling broadly and calling out, "Imperial sister, you're here."
Princess Funing nodded slightly in response, then slowly sat down at the lower seat next to King Wen.
Seeing this, King Wen rubbed his hands together, looking a little uneasy, and said quickly, "Sister, please take a seat."
Princess Funing said, "You are the host of the wedding today, so you should sit at the top seat."
King Wen quickly waved his hand and declined, saying, "I didn't know the Imperial Sister was coming. Now that the Imperial Sister is here, how dare I overstep my bounds?"
Lu Ruoyao, who was standing by, also hurried forward and echoed, "Auntie, please take a seat."
"Well, I will be the host of the wedding today."
Outside Prince Rong's mansion, the sound of festive drums and music echoed in the street. Prince Rong, dressed in red, looked heroic as he rode back from the post station, followed by a long wedding procession, making the scene extremely lively.
He stepped into the hall and glanced at the guests. When he saw the eldest princess sitting high up in the hall, his steps paused and his expression changed slightly.
"Auntie, why are you here?"
"Why can't I come to your Rong Palace?"
"Aunt Royal, Jing Shuo didn't mean that."
Princess Funing snorted coldly, "I came here today to say a few unpleasant words."
"Royal Aunt?"
"Chu Jingshuo, you are impetuous by nature, and have achieved nothing in your studies. As a result, you have made no contribution to the people. You are unkind and unjust as a brother, and ruthless as a husband."
Prince Rong's face flushed instantly, but he was speechless.
"You actually took advantage of your brother's wife. Have you ever considered that she is your brother's fiancée? And Lu, she is your first wife. You completely disregard her feelings. Where do you put her?"
As soon as these words were spoken, silence fell in the hall. Under the veil, Tuoba Yan clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug into his flesh, but he still felt unsatisfied.
The guests looked at each other in bewilderment. Everyone knew why Prince Rong married Princess Tuoba, but due to Prince Rong's status, no one dared to speak.
Princess Fubao continued, "Jingxun is already 25 years old and still hasn't married. You know he's weak, and you still have the nerve to do this."
Everyone's eyes turned to King Jin in the corner, and a look of sympathy appeared on their faces.
Prince Jin looked at the many eyes and couldn't help but hold his forehead. The imperial aunt was so good to him.
Princess Funing stood up and walked in front of Chu Jingshuo.
"Imperial Aunt!"
"What's the Empress's Aunt? I haven't even finished scolding you yet, why are you so upset?"
"Aunt Royal, please give your nephew some face."
"Oh! Now you're thinking of saving face? When you two were hanging out together, where did you put the dignity of our ancestors and the royal family?"
"I……"
Lu Ruoyao hurriedly tried to smooth things over, "Auntie, the time is almost up, let's get married first."
Princess Funing nodded slightly, "Jingshuo, today is your wedding day, and I don't want to say much. But you must remember this: you are a prince, and you must always uphold the dignity of the royal family."
"And you, Princess Tuoba, I warn you to be honest. If you do anything that damages the reputation of our Great Xia again, I will never forgive you."
Tuoba Yan said softly: "Yes, Princess."
Chu Jingshuo also nodded in agreement.
Princess Funing snorted coldly and sat back in her seat.
Chu Jingshuo breathed a sigh of relief.
But when the wedding was about to start the second bow to her parents, the bride suddenly fainted.
“This…this…”
Everyone was stunned by this sudden situation.
I've never been to such an exciting wedding.
It was Lu Ruoyao who reacted and quickly asked someone to call the imperial physician.
Princess Funing looked at the unconscious Tuoba Yan and smiled coldly.
Chen Jingxi held back her laughter and ate the melon until she was full, enjoying the double benefit of the gift money.
Although the bride fainted, the wedding banquet had to continue. The ladies speculated about the reason why Tuoba Yan fainted, while thinking about the latest gossip that would appear in the capital tomorrow.
Only Chen Jingxi was concentrating on enjoying the delicious food.
Jiang Xiwan looked at Chen Jingxi with a gloomy gaze, and the chopsticks in her hand gradually bent.
From the beginning, the apology on the city wall made her lose face, and then the painting incident made her the laughing stock of the whole capital.
Now Chen Jingxi has become the Bodhisattva who saves people from suffering, and she is the fool who sets her off. Why is she so unlucky?
She just didn't believe it, she was always so lucky.
Jiang Xiwan picked up the wine jug and came to Chen Jingxi, "Princess Su, I want to toast you. I was wrong about what happened last time."
Chen Jingxi picked up the cup and drank it all.
Jiang Xiwan filled her glass again and said, "And the last time, I shouldn't have questioned your chess skills."
She had inquired about Chen Jingxi's alcohol tolerance and found that two glasses were enough, so she just waited for Chen Jingxi to get drunk.
There will be one more piece of gossip in the capital tomorrow: Princess Su is drunk and acting crazy in Prince Rong's mansion.
Chen Jingxi narrowed his eyes slightly and knew at a glance that this person had bad intentions.
"You know you're wrong, so just show some sincerity. Drink this pot of wine, and I'll consider forgiving you."
Jiang Xiwan's face turned pale, "I...I'm not good at drinking."
"Then don't drink!" Chen Jingxi sneered, "Stop pretending in front of me."
Jiang Xiwan clenched the wine glass and said through gritted teeth, "Okay, I'll drink it!" After that, she raised her head and drank it all in one gulp.
Chen Jingxi applauded, "What a drinker! Want another pot?"
Jiang Xiwan immediately felt regretful and was about to say no, but she saw Chen Jingxi take the lead in raising his empty glass and shouting, "Come on, bring another pot of wine!"
Soon, a new pot of wine was brought up.
Chen Jingxi filled both herself and Jiang Xiwan's glasses, then raised them and shook them towards everyone, "Cheers!"
