Chapter 771 Sister is unique
"Comb all the way to the end..."
"The second time I comb my white hair to the eyebrows..."
"Three combs of hair fill the ground with children and grandchildren..."
"Four combs, one heart, one eternal knot..."
Everyone in the room listened quietly to the auspicious words being spoken one by one. Rong Yue's eyes turned red as she looked at Tang Ning, who was dressed in her gorgeous attire.
Once upon a time, the little girl in front of her was just a soft and cuddly little ball following behind her, stumbling into her arms and calling her aunt, and her eyes curved like her elder sister's when she smiled, so cute that people wanted to hug her in their arms. But now, the little girl has grown up and is about to get married.
Madam Wenxin pulled her hand and said softly, "Today is Tang Ning's good day, don't cry."
Rong Yue hummed softly, suppressing the bitterness in her eyes: "I just miss my sister."
Upon hearing this, Lady Wenxin was reminded of that gentle and resolute woman, a woman completely different from Rong Yue, yet still beautiful. She said softly, "If Madam Rong were still alive, she would surely be happy to see Tang Ning marry so well."
As soon as Grandma Quanfu finished her auspicious words, the dressing nanny next to her came forward and took the comb from her hand.
After the people below led Grandma Quanfu away, the nanny quickly and skillfully tied Tang Ning's long hair into a high bun.
Her black hair was pulled up little by little, revealing Tang Ning's fair and flawless face. When the gold and jade jewelry and the phoenix crown and pearl necklace that had been prepared early were all put on her back, the already beautiful Tang Ning had an even more imposing aura that made people dare not look directly at her. However, she was also as beautiful as a blooming poppy, and one glance at her made people unable to take their eyes off her.
"My lady, everything is ready. Please take a look and see if there is anything else that needs to be changed."
Mammy put down the comb and asked respectfully.
Tang Ning looked up at herself in the mirror, dressed up. Her eyes were as black as lacquer, her eyebrows were like crescent moons, and her fair skin was stained red like rouge.
She had tried on the phoenix robe last night but had not put on her makeup. Now that her makeup and hair were done, even Tang Ning herself felt that the person in the mirror looked a little strange.
"No need to change it, you guys can go down first."
"yes."
The palace maids in the room retreated one after another, and Qian Qiyue, Xue Ru and others quickly surrounded them.
"Sister, you are so pretty." Xue Ru stood aside, her eyes full of joy.
Zhou Yuchang looked at Tang Ning and nodded heavily in agreement: "Aru is right, Tang Ning looks so beautiful today."
Qian Qiyue came forward and almost leaned against Tang Ning. Their faces were reflected in the mirror at the same time. She tilted her head to look at the stunning beauty in the mirror and couldn't help but say, "Tang Ning, you are so beautiful. I want to take you back to the mansion and hide you away."
As soon as she finished speaking, Qian Qiyue was slapped on the back of the head.
Madam Qian walked over and pulled the man away, scolding him, "You're the only one who talks nonsense. You're not a man, are you trying to steal the bride from His Majesty?"
Qian Qiyue snorted, "Who says girls can't be snatched?" Then she put her hands on her hips in a coquettish manner and said, "Tang Ning, tell me, do you like me or His Majesty?"
Tang Ning suppressed her smile and said, "Of course it's Sister Ayue."
Qian Qiyue immediately became like a little peacock with its tail raised, proudly raising its chin towards Madam Qian.
Mrs. Qian was at a loss for words: "The Queen Mother also followed her in her nonsense."
Qian Qiyue raised her lips and said, "What do you know, mother? Tang Ning and I are like beauties cherishing beauties."
Madam Qian: "...The Queen is indeed a beauty. You are just being shameless."
Qian Qiyue: "Mother!"
Everyone else in the room couldn't help but laugh.
"Madam Qian, please don't say that. Miss Qian is indeed beautiful, and the Queen is even more beautiful."
"Yes, Miss Qian's appearance is also first-class in the capital, but it is rare to be as stunningly beautiful as the Empress."
Madam Cui and several ladies who were on good terms with the Tang and Rong residences also came today to see Tang Ning off to get married. Seeing the close relationship between Qian Qiyue and the Queen, they were full of envy. In addition, since Minister Qian was becoming more and more favored by the new Emperor, and the promising young men of the Qian family, they were naturally happy to make friends with the Qian family.
Several people praised him as if he was free, but he was thinking in his heart.
The Queen and the girl from the Qian family were on such good terms that Minister Qian had become a favorite in the eyes of His Majesty.
The Qian family only has one eldest son left who is still able to marry after his first wife died. However, it is said that he loves his deceased wife so much that he has never remarried. However, the daughter of the Qian family has not heard of the engagement yet, although this daughter has a straightforward and fierce personality and was rumored to be a bit fierce in the past.
But if I could really marry her back home, it would be like bringing home a golden nugget...
Two of the ladies in the room looked at Qian Qiyue with obscure eyes, as if they were about to make a move.
However, the target of praise from the other people was still the queen.
"Even if all the girls in the capital were put together, there wouldn't be another girl like the Empress. She was already beautiful before, but now dressed like this, she looks like a goddess descended to earth."
"Yes, it's no wonder that His Majesty values the Empress so much. With the Empress's appearance, anyone who sees her will be heartbroken. If I had a wife as beautiful as this, I would not only hold her in my hands, but I would also pick the stars and the moon for her."
Everyone else laughed along when they heard this, but Xue Ru, who had dimples just now, suddenly turned her head and frowned.
"Madam Luo, be careful what you say. His Majesty values my sister not because of her unparalleled beauty, and the two of them are in love not because of appearance. There are thousands of beauties in this world, but my sister is unique."
The lady who had just spoken froze and quickly patted her face.
"Miss Xue is right. Look at my mouth. Your Majesty and the Empress are naturally soulmates. It's my fault for being blinded by the Empress's beauty and talking nonsense."
The others around him also hurried to smooth things over: "Yes, yes, Your Majesty and Your Majesty are a match made in heaven."
Rong Yue glanced at Xue Ru who was like a hedgehog and couldn't help laughing. This little girl was timid and cowardly at first, but she gradually grew up to be brave, but she was still quiet and well-behaved and didn't like to compete with others. However, she was very protective of Tang Ning and would not tolerate anyone saying anything bad about her sister.
Seeing the embarrassment on the faces of those who had just spoken, Rong Yue walked forward with a smile.
"Alright, it's almost dawn outside, and the palace's wedding party has probably already left. Ladies, please go sit up front and have some tea. If things get chaotic later, I'm afraid we won't even have time for a snack."
Madam Cui quickly said, "Madam Rong is right. The Queen should also be quiet. Why don't we go to the front and see the excitement of the wedding."
Rong Yue turned around and said, "Tang Ning, I'll take the ladies out first."
Tang Ning nodded.
Everyone then bowed and left.
Rong Yue and the wife of Marquis Wenxin led the ladies away. After Mrs. Qian followed them out, only a few young people were left in the room. Qian Qiyue sat down next to Tang Ning.
"Why did you call these people over here and let them escort you out?"
