Chapter 9: Marrying a Rooster
"The Emperor and Empress have arrived!"
Hearing the eunuch chief's sharp voice, the people in Prince An's mansion and the ministers all knelt down.
"Your humble servant, I pay my respects to the Emperor and His Majesty the Empress. Long live the Emperor, and may Your Majesty be in good health."
Even though it was His Royal Highness Prince An who came to celebrate, they did not dare to slack off and came to congratulate him with gifts as soon as the court was over.
In their eyes, the emperor's "favor" for Xiao Chengjin...maybe it's just superficial, and even this attack may have been caused by the emperor.
And they are just supporting roles that need to cooperate with the emperor in performing.
"Stand up!"
A dark gleam flashed across Xiao Junze's sharp eyes, and his stern expression perfectly captured the majesty of an emperor.
Following him came Crown Prince Xiao Mocheng.
Xiao Mocheng was even more dissatisfied with this little uncle who was only half a year older than him.
He was obviously the most precious eldest grandson of the emperor. When his grandfather was alive, he gave all his love to Xiao Chengjin, which made him angry and resentful.
After Xiao Mocheng entered Prince An's Mansion, he walked straight up to Xiao Junze and bowed, saying, "Your son greets the Emperor, Father, and the Empress, Mother."
Xiao Junze said in a deep voice: "Get up!"
After he finished speaking, the people and guests from Prince An's Mansion saluted Xiao Mocheng again.
As the sound of gongs and drums got closer, everyone knew that the wedding sedan had arrived.
Outside Prince An’s Mansion.
Looking at the Prince An's Mansion so close, the bride's mother finally felt relieved and shouted happily, "Princess An, please get out of the wedding sedan!"
Oh my god! Princess An is finally brought back.
Who could have thought that this trip would go so smoothly!
Jiang Ruo, supported by Dongxue, slowly walked down from the bridal sedan.
"Princess An, you also know the current situation of His Highness Prince An. I am sorry to have troubled you today." When the matchmaker said this, there was some true emotion revealed.
This Miss Jiang must have accepted her fate!
Jiang Ruo smiled slightly, "It's okay, don't miss the auspicious time."
The bridesmaid was completely overwhelmed with emotion. After wiping her tears, she said, "Oh, okay, okay."
After the group entered Prince An's Mansion, everyone in the mansion focused their attention on the woman wearing a phoenix coronet and a red robe.
Everyone just thought that the woman had a graceful figure and her steps were like lotus flowers, and they were a little curious about the face under the red veil.
After looking at Xiao Junze, who was wearing a dragon robe, the matchmaker quickly knelt down and saluted, saying, "I greet the Emperor and the Empress. Long live the Emperor, and may the Empress be in good health!"
"Stand up!"
When Jiang Ruo heard this, a trace of disdain flashed across her face under the veil.
Prince An has the privilege of not kneeling when meeting the emperor, so as Princess An, she should be able to do the same!
Jiang Ruo leaned forward slightly, her voice cold and steady, "Your Highness, I greet the Emperor and the Empress."
Before Xiao Junze could speak, Jiang Ruoren had already stood up straight.
The atmosphere at the scene froze for a moment.
Princess An is so bold that she is so perfunctory when paying respects to the Emperor and the Empress.
Everyone believed that Princess An was challenging the emperor's authority at the cost of her life.
Xiao Junze clenched his hands tightly under his sleeves, and stared at Jiang Ruo in front of him with slightly cold eyes with ambiguous expressions.
The daughter of the Prime Minister's family is so ignorant of etiquette, she is really not presentable.
She must be very jealous of the wedding in her heart, so she behaved like this.
Just when everyone thought he was about to get furious, Xiao Junze suddenly burst into a hearty laugh.
"Princess An, I leave my brother to you. You must take good care of him. Do you understand?"
"I understand! Jiang Ruohui was nonchalant.
Jiang Ruo complained in his heart: This is what you said, I will take good care of him and raise him to be fat and white.
Everyone was terrified.
Only the people in Prince An's Mansion could not help but applaud Jiang Ruo's acting.
Their Highness will definitely like this arrogant and domineering princess.
The Queen was also very displeased with Jiang Ruo's attitude, but she didn't show it on her face. She smiled and said, "Alright, don't miss the auspicious time!"
If His Royal Highness Prince An knew that he had married such an ignorant woman, would he be furious?
Upon hearing this, matchmaker breathed a sigh of relief and quickly took Jiang Ruo to the wedding hall.
There was a big red double happiness character pasted in the center of the hall, making it look very festive, but the atmosphere was a little depressing.
The moment Jiang Ruo stepped into the hall, the oppressive atmosphere eased a little.
Butler Lin handed the prepared rooster to the matchmaker with a look of worry in his eyes.
Will the princess quit her job in anger?
The matchmaker took the rooster and the corners of her mouth twitched uncontrollably.
I have been a matchmaker for so many years, but this is the first time I have encountered such a situation.
“Cluck!”
Jiang Ruo, who was under the veil, couldn't help but twitch her lips when she heard the rooster's "cuckoo".
After finally getting a taste of an ancient wedding, I ended up having to marry with a rooster.
What kind of large-scale social death scene is this!
Jiang Ruo saw a fat rooster with shiny feathers from the bottom of the red veil.
I couldn’t help but think: It must be delicious since it’s so fat!
The rooster seemed to sense danger and its feathers stood up.
"Hehe!" Help, this woman doesn't look like a good person.
Jiang Ruo curled her red lips slightly and whispered a threat, "You'd better behave yourself, otherwise, I will pluck out all your hair and stew...your meat."
The rooster seemed to understand Jiang Ruo's words and suddenly became quiet.
Jiang Ruo: This is what it means to be truly quiet as a chicken.
The emcee had anticipated several unexpected situations in his mind, such as Princess Chongxi running away or causing a scene in the wedding hall. When he saw Jiang Ruo so calm, he felt relieved.
Never mind, let’s complete the etiquette first.
Otherwise there are too many variables.
The master of ceremonies shouted, "The auspicious time has arrived. Bow to heaven and earth... and send her to the bridal chamber!"
After the ceremony, under the guidance of the matchmaker, Dongxue and Aunt Liu supported Jiang Ruo to the bridal chamber.
In the bridal chamber, Aunt Liu took out the prepared reward money and stuffed it into the hands of the bridegroom, "Thank you for your help today, bridegroom!"
The matchmaker touched the silver ingot in her purse and was slightly stunned. "Princess An, I wish you and His Royal Highness Prince An a long and happy life together and a son soon."
"I will withdraw first."
Jiang Ruo shook her aching neck and said, "Dongxue, go see off the matchmaker."
forecourt.
After Xiao Junze and the Queen returned to the palace, those ministers who were just pretending to be there also took their leave.
Prince An's Mansion instantly returned to its former tranquility.
Dongxue, who came out to see off the matchmaker, was so frightened by the ferocious guards that her legs trembled.
The people in Prince An’s Mansion are so scary!
Miss, help me...
In the wedding room.
"Mammy, Dongxue, please place the valuables you brought with you in my yard, then go and rest for a while. Come back when it's time for dinner!"
After the two of them left, Jiang Ruo pulled off the red veil and took off the phoenix crown on her head with a grin.
Is it easy to get married?
It's so fucking tiring.
By the way, let’s go see the “vegetative” Xiao Chengjin first.
Jiang Ruo felt that Xiao Chengjin was unconscious because he had suffered a serious head injury during the attack.
When I came to the bed, I saw a handsome face with clear edges and corners.
A high nose bridge, thick and curled eyelashes, and thin lips tightly pursed...
Oh my god, she really looks like me!
