Su Xuening was startled upon hearing this. Just as she had imagined, they had indeed bumped into each other by the Bright Moon Lake.
From the General's Mansion to the Holy King's Mansion, and from the Prime Minister's Mansion back to the Imperial Palace, both must pass through Mingyue Lake, which is located in the very center of East Street. Therefore, Mingyue Lake is the intersection of the two.
"The road by Mingyue Lake is narrow, allowing only one group of people to pass at a time. Now both wedding processions on both sides have stopped."
"The Third Prince didn't go to the Prime Minister's residence to pick up his bride; they were picked up by the guards."
“The bridal sedan chair opposite is the same as the one that Consort Su gave to Miss before.”
Since Su Xuening couldn't see what was happening outside from inside the bridal sedan chair, Green Lotus verbally described the situation to her from the side.
Su Xuening frowned.
It's understandable that Xuanyuan Yu didn't go to pick up the bride, since he should be in Su Feiling's bed right now.
Today is the day Xuanyuan Yu will marry Zhao Zhenzhen. She doesn't believe Su Feiling will sit idly by and wait for her fate. She must have used the Red Plum Blossom Jade Hairpin last night.
She probably won't be watching the drama that Xuanyuan Yu, Su Feiling, and Zhao Zhenzhen put on today.
However, Zhao Zhenzhen is a formidable woman, and it shouldn't be so easy for Su Feiling to take away her position as the Third Prince's consort.
Ahead, Xuan Yuan Yu's guards clashed directly with the guards of the Holy King's Mansion, resulting in a stalemate where neither side was willing to give way.
Meanwhile, the guards of Xuanyuan Yu on the opposite side exchanged strange glances when they saw that Su Xuening's bridal sedan chair was different from the ones on their side.
It turns out they're not the same bridal sedan chairs; this is going to be difficult.
A maid from the Prime Minister's residence across the way whispered to Zhao Zhenzhen inside the bridal sedan chair, "Miss, this is the bridal sedan chair from the Holy Prince's residence. Their bridal sedan chair is different from ours."
Zhao Zhenzhen, who was in the sedan chair, could finally relax after a long morning.
Yesterday, when she heard the message from the people of the Holy King's Mansion, she guessed Su Fei's plan. However, they did not have the right to choose the bridal sedan chair unless she did not get on it.
Even if it weren't an imperial decree, which their Prime Minister's family couldn't possibly defy, she had finally gotten the chance to become the Third Prince's principal wife. Today, no matter if the bridal sedan chair was a trap, even if she had to go through fire and water, she would get on it! She would enter the palace! She would become the Third Prince's principal wife!
Now that the other side has changed the bridal sedan chair, it means that the Holy Princess Dowager has seen through everything. Presumably, the Holy Princess Dowager won't let Consort Su's plan succeed so easily. After all, Su Xuening is the daughter-in-law she snatched from Consort Su, and she won't let her go back so easily. The Holy Princess Dowager has never been one to be trifled with.
At the front, Ye Yun shouted to the leading guards opposite him, "We are the wedding procession of the Holy King's Mansion. Make way quickly and don't miss our auspicious time!"
Opposite them were Xuan Yuan Yu's guards, Yue Yuan and Yue Que: "The Holy King's Mansion is so great, isn't it? We are the Third Prince's wedding procession. If you miss our Third Prince's auspicious time, can you bear the consequences?"
Ye Yun scoffed disdainfully, "What's so great about the Third Prince? In terms of rank, he's not even as high as our Prince!"
The Third Prince hasn't even been granted the title of Prince yet, so he should already be suppressed by the Prince.
Enraged, Yueyuan glared and invoked the Emperor's name: "Our marriage is ordained by the Emperor. How dare you obstruct our wedding procession? Aren't you afraid of committing the crime of deceiving the Emperor?"
Ye Yun was so angry she laughed: "Who wasn't betrothed by the Emperor!"
Their third prince is only getting married because of his lord. If his lord hadn't been so eager to have a marriage to bring good luck, would the emperor have been able to bestow a marriage upon the third prince so quickly?
"So you're saying you don't want to give in!" Yueyuan said, her eyes narrowed, but her eyes were full of smugness.
It would be best if they didn't allow it; that's exactly the effect they wanted.
"Beat them!"
With a wave of his hand, Yueyuan's guards were about to rush forward.
The guards from the Holy King's Mansion immediately retaliated without backing down.
"Miss, a battle is about to begin ahead."
Just as a major battle was about to break out, Green Lotus and the maids from the Prime Minister's residence reported to the bridal sedan chair.
"stop!"
Almost simultaneously, Su Xuening and Zhao Zhenzhen spoke up at the same time.
"Your Highness." Upon hearing Su Xuening's voice, Ye Feng, who was in front, immediately went to the side of the bridal sedan chair to await her instructions.
Su Xuening lowered her voice and said, "Don't get into a conflict with them. Step aside and let them pass first."
"Your Highness." The moon on the opposite side also arrived beside Zhao Zhenzhen's bridal sedan chair.
"On this joyous day, let's avoid conflict and each take a step back." Zhao Zhenzhen understood perfectly what Consort Su wanted to do, so she didn't want them to clash, nor did she want to give them the opportunity to change sedan chairs.
Yueyuan frowned and protested, "Your Highness, there's no turning back once you're married. How can we back down now?"
Your Highness has instructed them to make sure the other party's wedding sedan chair is replaced. If they back down today, how will they replace the sedan chair?
Ignoring Zhao Zhenzhen, Yueyuan ordered her men to attack the other side.
Ye Feng listened to Su Xuening's words. Just as Yueyuan and the others were about to make their move, he waved to Ye Yun.
Ye Yun really didn't want to back down, and he really didn't want to give way to the other side, but since the princess had given the order, he couldn't disobey.
Ye Yun glared at the person opposite him with dissatisfaction, then waved to the guards and sedan chair bearers behind him. The guards and sedan chair bearers immediately obeyed and moved aside.
...The sudden compromise and concession of the guards of the Holy King's Palace has confused the waxing and waning of the moon.
So you're just giving in like that? If they don't fight for it, how are they supposed to get the wedding sedan chair?
Seeing that they didn't move, Ye Yun impatiently shouted, "Hey, I've given you the way, why aren't you moving? A good dog doesn't block the road!"
Full Moon frowned slightly, glanced at Crescent Moon, and gestured with her eyes: What do we do now?
