Chapter 45: Dressed in White to Congratulate Yun Ran on Her Wedding
To be honest, she felt that her scumbag father's way of doing things did not seem like a good official who was honest and upright and worked for the country and the people, so it was not possible for the Prime Minister's Mansion to have such a small amount of property.
Maybe something more valuable is stored somewhere else... We'll know the details when her scumbag father learns that the warehouse has been robbed.
She returned the same way, climbed down from the window, and locked it again. The guard she had knocked down was still on the ground.
She took out the antidote and sprinkled it in the air, then ran to the cave in the rockery, slipped into the space, changed her clothes and went to look for Cherry.
…
The next morning, Prince Duan gave the Prime Minister's Mansion enough face. The red carpet for the wedding was rolled out from Prince Duan's Mansion to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
When Yue Qiguo got married, the man held a wedding banquet and the woman held a banquet for the bride. However, since Prince Duan was a prince of the royal family and Prime Minister Yun was the head of all officials, most of the guests between the two were also ministers of the court. In order to win the favor of Prime Minister Yun, Prince Duan stopped all wedding banquet expenses, and all guests from both banquets went to Prince Duan's mansion.
So today there is no big banquet at the Xiangfu Mansion, but a variety of snacks, fruits, tea and so on.
All the officials came to the Prime Minister's Mansion early in the morning to congratulate and present gifts, waiting for the wedding procession to come and pick up the bride, and then they would go to Prince Duan's Mansion to congratulate and watch the ceremony.
Yun Ran has been imprisoned for so long, and she has been looking forward to this day for a long time. She is finally going to become the Princess Duan!
So what if she didn't marry the prince? The prince would definitely have many concubines in the future. But it was different for Prince Duan. In her relationship with Prince Duan, it was always Prince Duan who took the initiative, and she knew very well how he felt about her!
From today on, the young ladies in the capital will have to kneel down and salute her when they see her, and address her as Princess Duan! And Yun Li, killing her will only take a word from her!
Four maids were surrounding her, one putting on makeup, one combing her hair, and one arranging her clothes. She looked at herself in the bronze mirror and felt very proud.
"This servant has met the young lady."
Yun Wei waved her hand and said, "Everyone, please leave first!"
"yes!"
When Yun Ran was the only one left in the room, Yun Wei came over and helped Yun Ran pick up the phoenix-tail gold hairpin on the dressing table and put it in her hair.
"Sister, remember what I said to you last night!"
Yun Ran nodded: "Don't worry, big sister! I'll remember that Prince Duan treats me very well. I will gain a foothold in the palace as soon as possible and bring mother out."
Seeing her sensible appearance, Yun Wei nodded, looking relieved: "When you arrive at Prince Duan's Mansion, you must not act rashly. If you are undecided, you can send someone to tell me, and I will help you! Remember not to be instigated by others."
Yun Ran said impatiently, "Oh, sister, you've said these words so many times last night that my ears are almost callused! From today on, I am the Princess of Duan. What can others do to me? Even you will have to bow to me when you see me in the future!"
As soon as the words fell, Yun Wei's face changed. Yun Ran also realized that she had said the wrong thing in a moment of haste: "Oh, sister, I was just joking! There is no need for such false formalities between us sisters..."
Seeing how quickly she had changed, Yun Wei's embarrassment was swept away. She and Yun Ran only had a childhood friendship, and they hadn't seen each other for many years while growing up. From her mother's instructions, some of Yun Ran's actions, and last night's conversation, it seemed that Yun Ran's brain was really not very good. Alas, as her sister, she could only advise her and help her temporarily, but not forever. Besides, she hadn't even established herself in the Prime Minister's Mansion yet...
She didn't tell Yun Ran what her father had told her last night. She was afraid of hurting her heart on such a happy day.
The eldest sister is like a mother. Today, her younger sister is getting married, and she is the only one by her side. She puts on a smile, picks up the red veil beside her, and helps her cover it.
"Sister is so beautiful today!"
Yun Ran was happy, "Hehe~ Thank you for the compliment, sister!"
…
Yun Li stretched lazily. She didn't want to go to Prince Duan's Mansion, but she had no choice. Her scumbag father had Butler Li come to Wutong Courtyard to inform her early in the morning, asking her to go to Prince Duan's Mansion to watch the ceremony and send Yun Ran off to get married.
"Ah..." He sighed, got up resignedly, and put on a piece of clothing.
Yingtao came in with water for washing up, and looked at her in surprise. "Ah, Miss, today is the second young lady's wedding. Are you going to wear a white dress? That's not good..."
Yun Li then looked down at the clothes on her body. She had just picked them up with her eyes closed and didn't pay attention to the color.
"Isn't it good... White is so low-key. I don't have anything on my clothes, so plain and elegant is no longer enough..."
Cherry opened her mouth but swallowed her words. She wanted to say that her young lady might have misunderstood her. She had never seen a young lady wear such plain clothes, without makeup, and yet look so ethereal! Forget it, her young lady was beautiful, so she could wear anything!
That's it, don't anger the Second Miss...
Yun Li thought it was nothing. Modern people still wear white wedding dresses. If wearing white was considered unlucky, then that was just right! She was just trying to make things difficult for Yun Ran...
She asked Yingtao to put her hair into a simple bun with a jade hairpin inserted in it. She washed her face and applied some skin care products she mixed with spiritual spring water. That was it. She didn't put on any makeup on her face.
"Let's go! Is there any breakfast?"
"Miss Yes, the strawberries are ready!"
"Well, let's go to Prince Duan's Mansion after we eat!"
…
Helian Qi's wedding was held, and almost all the officials in the capital came, as well as the various marquisates, princes, generals, and envoys from various countries. The gate of the prince's palace was crowded with guests and carriages.
Arriving at the gate of Prince Duan's mansion, Yun Li, sitting in the carriage, had already felt the excitement of an ancient wedding before she even got out of it, with gongs and drums beating. It was said that Prince Duan was taking the bridal procession around the main city of the capital to welcome the bride today, which showed that he had given Yun Ran enough favor. For a moment, everyone forgot about the ugly things they had done. Yun Ran was now the envy of all the women in the capital.
She thought about it and took out the white veil and put it on her face. There were too many guests today and she didn't want to attract attention. She knew how beautiful her face was.
She won't be low-key when she should be high-profile, and she won't be in the limelight when she should be low-key.
After getting off the carriage, he took Yingtao and Baizhi and entered the Prince Duan's Mansion under the guidance of the maid.
The palace was full of people, as lively as a market.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived! His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin has arrived! His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince has arrived!"
The eunuch shouted loudly, and the originally lively courtyard suddenly became quiet. Yun Li also walked to the side of the crowd and turned around with the crowd to salute the three people.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is well and safe, His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin is well and safe, and the Fifth Prince is well and safe!"
The prince smiled and raised his hand: "Everyone, please excuse your formalities! Today is Second Brother's wedding, so don't be polite!"
After saying that, he was supported by the crowd and walked inside.
