"Father, what nonsense are you talking about? The groom is gone, who do you want your daughter to marry?"
Princess Manyin was completely bewildered.
At this moment, she...
He looked extremely haggard.
The redness and swelling around his eyes suggested that he had just been crying.
When the First Emperor saw her like this, he felt a pang of guilt: "This scoundrel! He not only deceived me, but he's also ruined my precious daughter so badly. Sigh, I'm starting to regret letting Manyin marry you!"
"Li Lin is not dead!"
"Ah? Father, you..."
"He faked his death to escape. Just now during the morning court session, I even granted him the power to establish his own residence as prime minister!"
"What? You're really not dead?"
"Your Highness, how could Prime Minister Li, who is destined for great wealth and honor, possibly die so easily at the hands of villains? This old servant just saw Prime Minister Li return home alive and kicking. I reckon he'll be arriving in a grand sedan chair with eight bearers to welcome Your Highness around noon!"
"real......"
She raised her swollen, red eyes, tears streaming down her face. A surge of resentment welled up inside her, and she angrily shouted, "That damned Li Lin, that stinking Li Lin! He just knows how to deceive me, making me sad for so long..."
"Hahaha, Manyin, today is your big day! Look at your makeup, which you put on so early in the morning, it's almost ruined from crying! What are you going to do when you see that brat Li Lin? Hurry up and wipe your tears and touch up your makeup!"
Although the First Emperor regretted it to some extent, it was too late.
I've boarded this scoundrel Li Lin's pirate ship.
It's really not easy to get down.
As for Manyin's happiness for the rest of her life, that will depend on Li Lin's character.
After all, time reveals true character.
"Father, you're so annoying! I, I will never marry that big bad guy!"
"Hahaha, since you won't marry, then I'll go and tell Li Lin not to come..."
"Father!" she pouted.
The First Emperor couldn't help but chuckle and said, "You silly girl, you mustn't be so naughty in your husband's family in the future! I am your father, and I can tolerate you, but others may not be as easy to talk to as I am."
"Father, I understand. I will definitely take good care of my parents-in-law."
"Hmm! Go take a bath, then freshen up and tidy yourself up. When Li Lin arrives, I will personally escort you to his residence for the wedding!"
"promise!"
She nodded, showing no sign of dissatisfaction.
Accompanied by his attendants, he washed and bathed again.
More than an hour later.
Princess Manyin, who reappeared before the First Emperor, was no longer as listless as before; just now, she gave the impression of being heartbroken and wishing she were dead.
Nowadays...
She looked radiant and cheerful, like a fairy princess.
She wore a black and red phoenix robe, a phoenix-shaped purple-gold crown, and a black rope tied around her slender waist with carvings of dragons and phoenixes. The rope bound her lower body clothing from the cuffs down, making it less loose.
She held a ten-foot-long green pearl flower in her hand and inserted it into her coiled hair bun.
She walked towards the First Emperor, draped in a light red gauze robe.
Even though the First Emperor had seen many beauties from the six kingdoms, he was stunned for a long time upon seeing his daughter dressed in such finery.
"So alike! So incredibly alike! It's just so alike!"
"Father, what's wrong? Why are you staring at your daughter like that?"
"You look so much like your mother. I seem to have been thinking of your mother just now. When I think of your mother, I am reminded of the twelve years of hardship I endured in my childhood in the State of Zhao. Alas, I never imagined that more than thirty years would have passed in the blink of an eye. Your mother is gone, you have grown up and become even more beautiful, while I have grown old! Time flies, and I actually have an urge to cry."
The First Emperor shook his head, his face showing considerable pain.
Ever since he can remember.
He cried.
I've cried countless times.
But since becoming the King of Qin, he has never cried again.
I never imagined that I would be so sad now that my beloved daughter is getting married.
If I hadn't forced myself to endure it...
I bet tears are about to stream down my face.
It's like something you cherish has ceased to belong to you.
"Father, don't be sad. Although Mother is gone, she will always be with us, won't she?"
The First Emperor was so heartbroken and saddened.
She was naturally infected as well.
His voice was choked with emotion.
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that girls have to get married when they grow up, she really wouldn't want to get married.
Being able to stay by my father's side and take care of him makes my life worthwhile.
"Sigh, I never thought I would one day act like a woman, so fussy and indecisive!"
The First Emperor shook his head.
He truly couldn't understand why his emotions had been changing so drastically these past few days.
The old him.
Although he was a rational monarch.
However, when it comes to relationships, he's still a clueless, straight man.
There wasn't much attention to detail.
But now.
He found himself increasingly valuing relationships.
Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
At noon, it arrived as scheduled.
Li Lin led his wedding procession, setting off from the Censor-in-Chief's residence with gongs and drums. Of course, before setting off, the plaque on the gate of the Censor-in-Chief's residence was changed to read "Prime Minister's Residence".
"My dear teacher, I never imagined that today would be your joyous day!"
