"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and leave, you are waiting to be caught red-handed!" Hu Xiao rolled her eyes at Lu Yin, and pulled his arm to leave.
On the other hand, Qin Shuo continued to wait with a cold face. He wanted to see when Hu Xiao would come to see him, and it had already been so long, so logically speaking, her anger should have dissipated now.
"Your majesty, waiting for someone isn’t your style." Mo Zhu took a sip of tea and said with a light smile.
According to Qin Shuo’s usual style, he would directly go upstairs to look for someone.
Qin Shuo glanced at him, then said indifferently: "What do you know? Once you have experienced it, you will understand how we felt."
As he spoke, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, as if he was recalling every little bit of things that happened when he interacted with Hu Xiao.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door. "Your Majesty, there’s news."
"Come in and talk." Qin Shuo’s heart was thumping hard. Did Hu Xiao come over here?
His eyes were filled with anticipation, waiting for the dark guard’s words.
"Reporting to the emperor, the empress disguised herself and secretly slipped away." These words were like a thunder from a clear sky, striking Qin Shuo hard.
He had come all the way here, and now he was waiting for news of a wife sneaking away?
He firmly bit his lips and fiercely said, "She secretly slipped away and didn’t come to see me?"
Seeing that, Mo Zhu took a step back, afraid that Qin Shuo’s anger would affect him.
The hidden guard’s entire body shivered, he did not dare to reply to Qin Shuo’s words.
"You didn’t even say goodbye when you left. What do you think I am? I won’t leave today. I must wait for her to come see me." Qin Shuo said in a huff. He was a dignified emperor, but he was actually left alone by someone, and that person was actually his official wife.
He was determined to not leave until dawn. He would not stop until he sees Hu Xiao, and he was prepared to sit until the next day.
Since Qin Shuo wanted to wait, he could only wait with him.
After Hu Xiao left the house, seeing that no one followed from the left and right, she became relieved.
"Lu Yin, I have to go. If you have time, go and busy yourself!" Hu Xiao patted his shoulder and laughed as he said this, glad that he did not get caught by Qin Shuo.
Lu Yin nodded his head, and said: "Princess, be careful. If the princess wants to see me, I will accompany you anytime." freewёbnoνel-com
Lu Yin cupped his hands together, and turned to leave, he was not as free as Hu Xiao, he had other things to do.
Since she could not return to the inn, and Hu Xiao did not want to return to the palace, she could only wander around alone.
"Hopefully when I go back later, Qin Shuo will already be gone." he thought as she went shopping.
At the moment, she wasn’t ready to see Qin Shuo again. It was true that she loved Qin Shuo, but Qin Shuo had gone too far, and she still hadn’t forgiven him.
Just then, the sound of a gong could be heard from the street. Hu Xiao did not understand as she stood on her tiptoes to watch and realised that there were many people surrounding the entrance of a house on the corner of the street.
How lively it looked!
"Isn’t it marriage?" Hu Xiao raised her eyebrows. She was most interested in this matter.
She randomly grabbed a person on the street and asked, "What are you guys doing up ahead? Why is it so lively?"
she asked excitedly, her eyes flashing, wishing she could run right over.
"Are you blind? Can’t you see that big ’joy’ word?" The man rolled his eyes at her and said impatiently, If he had known that the person holding him was the noble princess, he would not have said such a thing.
Hu Xiao was in a good mood today, so she did not bother with him and directly threw him to the side, unconsciously walking towards the family that was getting married.
The onlookers were all the master’s family friends, and most of them were men. Hu Xiao was dressed simply, and was also a woman, which made her stand out among the crowd.
"Little girl, I’m here for a happy occasion. What are you here for? Have you paid for it?"
At this time, the bride and groom had not yet gone through the courtesy of heaven and earth, so everyone was bored and turned to look at Hu Xiao.
"Tsk, isn’t it just taking a look? What’s the price!" Hu Xiao crossed her arms across her chest and said with interest.
She knew that the people on the field had no malicious intent, otherwise they would have already been sent flying by her kick.
"You’re not a relative of our family. What, you want to be the groom’s concubine?" When these words were spoken, everyone laughed and squinted their eyes. In South Yue, taking in a concubine was a common occurrence, so saying such words on the day of the bride and groom’s wedding didn’t have any intention of offending them.
Hu Xiao’s face turned red, she did not expect them to say such a thing, even though her skin was extremely thick, but when it came to marrying into a concubine, she would still unconsciously blush.
It was a good thing that Ling Hua was the hero saving the beauty at this time. She had rushed over just in time.
"Hey, look at what you’re saying. It’s just a show, what’s the point of it!" Ling Hua said with a smile, and pulled Hu Xiao away.
The two of them stood on the outskirts, and although the people on the stage wanted to tease Hu Xiao, they did not have the chance.
"It’s a good thing you’re here. Otherwise, I really don’t know how to deal with these old foxes." Hu Xiao stuck out her tongue, and with her hand on Ling Hua’s shoulder, she laughed.
"Oh, and something that you don’t know how to deal with, Hu Xiao, you came here, could it be that what they said is true, that you want to get married!"
Ling Hua teased, she was a careless person, and did not care about Hu Xiao’s identity at all.
You damn girl, you actually dare to tease me!
Hu Xiao pinched her nose and pretended to be angry: "That’s right, my entire mind is about marriage, when I get married, do you want to be my bridesmaid?"
She looked at her in annoyance, but there was no anger on her face. Ling Hua didn’t understand what the bridesmaid meant and asked Hu Xiao a few times. There was nothing she could do, she had no choice but to tell her.
After Ling Hua heard this, she nodded her head repeatedly, indicating that she was willing to be Hu Xiao’s bridesmaid. She also said that if Hu Xiao didn’t let her be her bridesmaid, she would make a fuss about the wedding.
Seeing the simple and happy wedding ceremony before her eyes, Hu Xiao couldn’t help but think of what her and Qin Shuo’s wedding would look like.
Would it be like this couple, the wedding ceremony was simple and fun!
She thought sweetly, her thoughts flew very far away, but she suddenly remembered that she was still angry at Qin Shuo. With a light snort, she eliminated Qin Shuo from her mind.
A child stood beside Hu Xiao, and a young, tender voice sounded out. "Grandfather, what is marriage?"
The little girl had obviously heard the conversation between Hu Xiao and Yue Yang. After hearing it, he was confused and did not know what the two meant.
"Marriage, there are a lot of steps before getting married. The parents of a bride and groom need to exchange the word ’birth’ first, and they also need to go to the temple to worship. They also need to draw lots and draw lots."
The old man looked at the child with mild eyes. He cleared his throat and continued, "Men and women must make a wish in front of the Buddha to protect their marriage for a long time."
