Chapter 164 Princess Shuhua
Lingshan
Su Shengsheng, who was drowsy, suddenly felt a pain on her face.
She hissed softly and opened her eyes.
I saw a woman with a happy face, holding a colorful silk thread and busy moving it around her face.
"Miss Su, please bear with it for a moment. Although the process of opening your face is a bit painful, fortunately, your skin is as smooth as jade, so it won't be difficult."
While the woman was busy, she envied Su Shengsheng's clean little face. Her delicate and sleeping appearance was truly adorable.
Open the face?
Su Shengsheng seemed to wake up a little.
Just now, Xie Xuan took her to climb the mountain late at night, and then handed her over to a group of maids to serve her.
At this moment, Xie Xuan was nowhere to be found.
She closed her eyes quickly, intending to take a short nap, but her face felt painful again.
Seeing her frown, the woman quickly smiled and said, "That's all right, that's all right."
This woman has a blessed face and was invited to make facial tissue for the princess because she has both a son and a daughter and is very blessed.
She had been doing facials for many years, but she had never seen a bride who took her wedding so lightly.
Not only did she not show any shyness as a bride, but she slept soundly, as if the wedding had nothing to do with her.
Su Shengsheng looked helpless and could only endure it silently.
But when she saw the maid beside her constantly applying powder and rouge to her face, she really couldn't help it.
"Ahem...Okay, I'll do it myself."
If she continued to paint, she wouldn't even want to look at herself.
Several older maids were startled when they heard this, but they couldn't go against her wishes, so they could only hand over the makeup box obediently.
However, Su Shengsheng simply applied some lip balm and threw the tissue away. "Where's the veil?"
Looking at such perfunctory makeup, the maids looked hesitant.
But when Su Shengsheng lifted up the long hem of her wedding dress and wanted to get the veil herself, how could they dare to let her work?
So they hurriedly took out the veil embroidered with two lotus flowers in gold thread and respectfully covered her head with it.
As her vision darkened, Su Shengsheng finally fell asleep as she wished.
The maids in the room were left looking at each other, at a loss as to what to do as the bride was sleeping with her head covered.
On the other side, General Zhang looked up at the sky and the ground, but he didn't dare to look at Xie Xuan's face, which was as cold as iron.
Is it easy for him?
After much difficulty in raising this child, he still took on his mother's temperament and didn't learn any good things from her.
Anyway, the message has been delivered, so let's leave it to his mother. His old bones can't stand their torture.
"Princess, I will go back to entertain those old friends first." After General Zhang finished speaking, he waited for Princess Shuhua's permission and then slipped away immediately.
Xie Xuan, who was left behind, stood there with a murderous look on his face.
Princess Shuhua slowly stood up from the futon and led him to sit in the tea room nearby.
"If mother wants to blame me for using the token, I have no objection." Xie Xuan said, "but my son must marry her today."
Princess Shuhua's face was as calm as water. "General Zhang rescued you from under the ice and treated you like a teacher and a father. How could you be so rude?"
Xie Xuan remained silent, his thin lips pressed tightly into a line.
Princess Shuhua gently twisted the agarwood string in her hand and asked, "Tell me, what brings you here?"
"I know you've been out of touch with the world for a long time, so I don't dare bother you with marriage," Xie Xuan said calmly. "I just want to bring my new bride here to pay my respects to you and ask for your blessing."
Princess Hua signaled to the nanny beside her with her eyes.
After a while, the nanny respectfully presented a deep-sea red coral bracelet.
The bracelet is made of red coral that has been in the deep sea for thousands of years. It has a luster as smooth as fat and a deep and beautiful red, as if it has condensed the charm and elegance of the sea for thousands of years.
As a treasure exclusively enjoyed by the royal family, each red coral bead is meticulously carved by craftsmen, with smooth lines and bright brilliance.
Even in a dim room, it is difficult to conceal its brilliance and noble aura.
This red coral bracelet is of extraordinary significance. It was the dowry given to Princess Shuhua by the Empress Dowager when she was still alive.
Xie Xuan's brows relaxed, and he was about to step forward to take the bracelet, but Princess Shuhua gently raised her hand to stop him.
"You must bring your princess to meet mother."
After Princess Shuhua finished speaking, her eyes moved across Xie Xuan's face, which was very similar to his father's. She felt a pain in her heart and slowly put down the agarwood bracelet in her hand.
"It was my mother who failed to fulfill her responsibilities and didn't arrange your marriage..."
Xie Xuan remained silent, but his face did not show any disappointment.
Seeing her son remain silent, Princess Shuhua sighed softly, "If you truly love her, why not wait a year before consummating the marriage?"
Xie Xuan's eyes turned cold, "Is mother doing this for Jun Yao?"
Princess Shuhua shook her head gently. "Royal children may seem to enjoy unlimited glory, but true love is hard to come by. Mother is simply worried that if you use your power to pressure them, you might demand true love from them in the future, and suffer the consequences."
Xie Xuan responded calmly: "Mother, there's no need to worry."
Princess Shuhua knew that it was useless to say more, so she asked him to go and invite the bride.
When Su Shengsheng heard that this was Lingshan, she realized that Xie Xuan was going to take her to meet his mother-in-law.
She originally thought that she could only meet Princess Shuhua when they got married.
Although she didn't understand why Xie Xuan chose to bring her to see the princess at this critical moment, Su Shengsheng quickly patted her confused head, trying to sober herself up.
Fortunately, she was covered with a veil, so she didn't have to adjust her mentality.
The truth is, she really doesn't want to get married.
Su Shengsheng followed Xie Xuan into the quiet room, where a faint woody fragrance filled the air, making one feel calm and at peace.
Princess Shuhua was surprised to see the bride wearing the veil so early, but she still signaled the nanny beside her to help her over.
After the two of them knelt on the mat and paid their respects, Princess Shuhua slowly walked forward and gently straightened the veil that had slipped off a little.
Although they only looked at each other for a moment, both of them had already remembered each other's faces deeply.
Su Shengsheng only saw a woman with extraordinary beauty, whose appearance was enough to captivate people and revealed her innate dignity.
No wonder Xie Xuan is so blessed.
Princess Shuhua took out the coral from the box and put it on Su Shengsheng's wrist. "May your love last forever."
A cool object slid onto Su Shengsheng's wrist. She accepted the gift and said, "Thank you, Princess."
Princess Shuhua smiled slightly, and said, "It's time to call me mother."
Su Shengsheng paused for a moment, then whispered, "Thank you, mother."
It feels like we're about to get married...
Princess Shuhua gently placed her hand in Xie Xuan's, "Go, don't miss the auspicious time."
?
Su Shengsheng didn’t know how the wedding was arranged, but it seemed that Princess Shuhua would not come down the mountain.
It's no wonder that Xie Xuan took a long detour to bring her to meet Princess Shuhua.
Otherwise, my grandfather and the others are still on the road, and without my parents at the wedding, it would always feel a bit awkward...
Su Shengsheng was distracted for a short moment before she bowed and left with Xie Xuan.
After the two of them left together, Princess Shuhua turned to the nanny beside her and asked, "What kind of person does this Miss Su look like?"
The nanny paused for a moment before answering, "It looks like... he should be... someone who can subdue the prince..."
Princess Shuhua looked back in confusion, only to see that the old nanny who had followed her for many years and was always serious had a rare smile on her face.
"From my perspective, he's a very interesting person with a heart as sweet as glass~"
