Chapter 492: Little crybaby, beautiful and delicate, the rough man dotes on his wife and flirts with her 42

"Why are you here?" Su Zhiruan walked over and brushed the fallen leaves off his shoulders.

"I want to see you," Ji Xiaoyuan stroked the back of her hand, wrapping it between his chest and palm.

Su Zhiruan wanted to withdraw her hand, but someone else interlocked her fingers and held them tightly.

The palace servants who passed by saw it all and were unable to dodge. They went from being shocked at first to being used to it now, and sometimes even lamented that their life now was much better than the fears they had before.

The emperor was young, and the eldest princess was rigorous in her work, but she never treated her servants harshly. As long as they did their job well, they didn't have to worry about losing their heads. Even their treatment was much better. Those who wanted to read and write even had the opportunity to do so, and if they passed the assessment, they could be promoted step by step.

Ji Xiaoyuan, the Jade-faced Rakshasa that the children had talked about before, now actually appeared beside the eldest princess. They realized that they had been wrong before - he really wanted to become a princess consort, and Ji Xiaoyuan prepared for the wedding more seriously than anyone else.

Many older palace servants sighed in their hearts that such a genius was once buried in the harem and bullied, while the brainless eldest princess and others were praised to the sky. Sometimes, one's birth can really change a person's environment.

Looking at Su Zhiruan and Ji Xiaoyuan's backs as they walked away, the palace people expressed their sincere blessings.

* The wedding is scheduled for the eighth day of the first lunar month, and before that, everything is ready.

Su Zhiruan was busy with state affairs and only visited occasionally, so the people in the Ministry of Rites naturally did not dare to neglect this matter.

In addition, the son-in-law Ji Xiaoyuan worked hard all day long and prepared every detail, so the wedding was held as scheduled and everything was ready.

Su Zhiruan did not proclaim herself emperor. She was nominally only the regent princess, so she had to comply with the etiquette of a princess' wedding. She had no doubts about this. It was just a formality anyway, but the people below her could not relax.

"Your Highness is truly stunningly beautiful!"

The person who was dressing Su Zhiruan was the former Concubine Li, who was now a female official beside Su Zhiruan. Looking at the fairy-like woman in the bronze mirror, Concubine Li put the phoenix crown on Su Zhiruan's head with swaying tassels. The woman in the bronze mirror had bright eyes and white teeth, and she just smiled at her.

"How could I have thought that you would be the one to dress me up now." Su Zhiruan leaned back in her chair, letting her and another nurse fix the phoenix crown. She smiled lazily and looked at her through the bronze mirror. "If you find a good match, you must tell me and I will officiate the wedding."

Li Guiren smiled gently and just shook her head. "I have been in the harem for a long time, and I no longer have the throbbing of a young girl. Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. If this is true, I will definitely let Your Highness know."

Su Zhiruan patted the back of her hand to show that she understood, and then was helped to stand up.

She was wearing a bright red wedding dress with a long train flowing behind her, every part of it was finely embroidered.

"Let's go." Su Zhiruan was satisfied. He stood up and walked out of the hall. The servants immediately opened the door.

According to the ancestral system of all dynasties, the wedding process of a princess is cumbersome and the etiquette is complicated, but Su Zhiruan simplified the ceremony on the grounds that "no other grand celebrations are allowed after the new emperor ascends the throne."

* Ji Xiaoyuan saw the bright and beautiful Su Zhiruan from afar across the long street. For a moment, he stared at her.

A feeling that was different from the past but inexplicably grew rapidly swept over his body, which made his eyes fill with sour tears in an instant, and even his heart was beating. He was a little anxious when he didn't see her, but when he really saw Su Zhiruan, his pace gradually slowed down, and his whole mind was focused on her. It was so quiet that - in the whole world he could only see Su Zhiruan in the distance and hear the deafening heartbeat.

He thought, not just at this moment, if there were past lives, present lives, next lives, and the next life, he would also remember what he was feeling at this moment.

"What are you thinking about?" Su Zhiruan looked at his stunned expression curiously. For a moment, she found it strange. She commented sharply, "A new sculpture has been added to the Wanchao Palace."

"I was wondering if we knew each other a long, long time ago." Ji Xiaoyuan took her hand obediently, and the two of them walked on the palace road as if no one was around, chatting casually, "Maybe we knew each other in the last life, and then met again in this life, and we will meet in the next life."

Su Zhiruan touched his chin with his free hand and replied thoughtfully, "Then we should stay together more. Maybe you can remember something."

"If there is a next life, we will definitely get married and be together again." Ji Xiaoyuan approached her.

"Okay." The girl smiled brightly.
