Chapter 114: Sun and Moon Glory, Presented to You Every Day
"You don't have to move, but I have to live here after I get married." Fang Qianxue looked at him carefully and said, "I'll take a step back. The plaque of Fang Mansion can be replaced with the plaque of Beining Palace."
Xiao Mingzhe clenched his fists, and his knuckles turned whiter inch by inch.
He is a royal family! How can a prince marry into the family?
But one has to eat one bite at a time. The fact that Fang Qianxue agreed to marry him is already a big progress and very good.
Thinking of this, Xiao Mingzhe gritted his teeth and said, "As you say! I'll move in."
Fang Qianxue hummed softly, and although she tried her best to hide it, a hint of shyness still appeared on her face.
When she and Lu Changqing were discussing marriage, it was arranged by their parents and the matchmaker. This was the first time that a marriage was being arranged for her openly like today.
"Do you need to find someone to match your horoscope?"
"No need," Xiao Mingzhe refused. He didn't want anyone to know that Fang Qianxue was a Phoenix girl. "I asked someone to calculate our horoscopes. There is an auspicious day next month..."
Fang Qianxue suddenly interrupted him: "I'm in a hurry to get married, and I can't wait until next month, so why not do it in seven days."
"What did you say?" Xiao Mingzhe swallowed his saliva and asked hoarsely, "Are you anxious to get married?"
He felt that the three books and six ceremonies should at least be gone through the motions.
"Well, Lu Changqing only gave me seven days," Fang Qianxue looked at him helplessly, "You don't have to prepare anything, just help me transfer my household registration after seven days."
"Other girls have to go through three books and six ceremonies when they get married, but you...you are not afraid of mistreating yourself, but you are saving money for me." Xiao Mingzhe frowned.
"Three letters and six ceremonies cannot guarantee a lifelong marriage, not to mention that our relationship...is fake." Fang Qianxue smiled faintly, "If my uncle wants to have a grand wedding, it would be better to wait until he marries the woman he really likes in the future, then it won't be too late to have a grand wedding."
In fact, she was disheartened and fed up with the wedding ceremonies. She no longer had the aspirations she had as a girl.
Xiao Mingzhe looked at her hesitantly, but only for a moment. He was afraid that if he missed this opportunity, he would miss it, so he said, "Okay. Let's keep it simple, hold a banquet, and then I'll move in."
Anyway, he was a second wife and Fang Qianxue was remarrying, so it was normal for the ceremony to be simple. People just thought that their identities were awkward, so no one would say anything about the simple wedding ceremony.
When Fang Qianxue personally saw Xiao Mingzhe off, Xiao Mingzhe suddenly walked into the garden, jumped onto the branch of a peach tree and picked a branch of peach blossoms that were in full bloom.
With a stern face, he threw away the bare peach branch in her hand and forced the peach blossoms into her hand: "It's a betrothal gift, nothing else."
Fang Qianxue took the peach branch hesitantly, and looked up. The man's angular face was reflected among the peach blossoms, and he actually showed a hint of a smile.
"Thank you." This was not the first time Xiao Mingzhe gave her something. The previous gifts were priceless, but she felt that nothing like this peach blossom made her happy.
"Don't throw it away, keep it in a vase." After saying that, he walked quickly forward.
"It will die sooner or later if you keep it." Fang Qianxue walked forward, swaying the peach blossom branch.
"I'll fold one for you every day."
"What about autumn and winter?" Fang Qianxue chuckled, wanting to hear what he had to say.
Xiao Mingzhe paused and looked up at the sky: "The glory of the sun and the moon is presented to you by my own hands every day."
Fang Qianxue looked at his back, first in shock and then burst out laughing: "You are quite good at pleasing others."
***
"She's going to marry the King of Beining? Isn't she having an affair with Jiang Xu?" Lu Changqing, who was writing in the study, waved his sleeves angrily, and all the pens, ink, paper and inkstone on the table fell to the ground with a clang.
The rice paper stained with black ink was scattered all over the ground and blown everywhere by the wind.
Amid the flying rice paper, Lu Changqing was in a trance for a moment, as if he saw the scene when he and Fang Qianxue read and wrote poems together in this study.
At that time, they had just gotten married and were in the best of relationships.
But I didn't expect that in just a few years, she would abandon me and climb up another high branch.
Tingcha answered cautiously, "I heard it from the customers in the teahouse when I was on the street. Now the news has spread all over the city, so it should be correct."
"When is the wedding date?" Lu Changqing asked through gritting his teeth.
"I heard... Fang is eager to get married, so the wedding date is set for seven days later." Tingcha said with his head down.
"How shameless!" Lu Changqing clenched his fist and slammed the table. "What kind of woman would be so eager to throw herself at me? I know, isn't she just afraid that I will come to pick up Yao'er and Yuan'er? That's why she rushed to find the King of Beining to get married within seven days. Do you think that I'm afraid of you just because you found the King of Beining? You underestimate me, Lu Changqing!"
Sure enough, Fang didn't like the King of Beining, she was just looking for a backer.
Unfortunately, Fang’s calculation was wrong!
This time, he not only wanted to get the two children back, but also sentenced everyone in the Fang family to death and made Fang Qianxue kneel before him and beg for mercy.
Tingcha looked at his master worriedly. He always felt that his master's mental state was not normal recently. He was always shouting and yelling, and liked to swear, but forget about it after swearing, and had a new idea every day.
"One day she will regret her decision today!" Lu Changqing sneered.
Tingcha became more and more worried about his mental state, and asked carefully: "Second Master, since Fang is going to remarry, then you should not think about remarrying in the future, right?"
Others may not know, but he follows Lu Changqing all day long and knows it very well.
The second master often drank alone in the study these days. When he was drunk, he kept talking about remarrying Fang. He even secretly inquired about the process of remarriage.
"When did I ever say I wanted to remarry her?" Lu Changqing roared, "I am now a fourth-rank official in the Ministry of Personnel, with great power in my hands! The promotions and achievements of so many officials depend on my decision. That bitch Fang Qianxue is not worthy of me at all."
He originally thought that after bringing the two children back home, Fang Qianxue would inevitably have to come to the Lu Mansion frequently to visit the two children, and the two would have interactions in the future. After a few months, Fang would definitely not be able to bear it and would propose a reconciliation. Then he would lower himself and agree to remarry her and let Xu Miaoyan be his concubine. Then Fang would have nothing to complain about and would definitely return to the Lu family happily.
But when the servants asked him about it, he couldn't admit for the sake of his reputation that he was still thinking about remarrying.
Moreover, Fang managed to get close to King Beining so quickly that Lu Changqing felt as if he had suffered a critical blow.
"Yes." Tingcha shook his head gently, thinking, you don't even know that you are drunk, what are you saying!
It is said that people speak the truth when they are drunk. When people are sober, they are either hypocritical or they really cannot see their own hearts clearly.
The plum blossoms are proud of themselves.
Xu Miaoyan was so angry that she was shaking all over.
Not long after her new official uniform was delivered, the little maid took it to the laundry room in the outer courtyard to wash. Unexpectedly, when it was drying, Fourth Aunt Lu took a fancy to a piece of bright red fabric on the uniform, so she took a pair of scissors and "clicked", cut off a piece, and took it back to make new clothes for Lu Huai.
