Ushiha glared at him a few times, then remembered that this was his own home. He couldn't afford to make a scene with this "foreign devil" and disrupt Namin's wedding.
Let him go for now.
"Please, that's where the men stay!" Ushiha pointed behind him, still with a displeased expression.
Seeing that she seemed quite familiar with the place, Suhari asked, "How did you know? Are you also from the Yong Prince's faction?"
Ushiha didn't answer his question, but just walked past him.
Suhari looked back at Susiha's back, touched his nose, smiled, and then went to the front yard.
When Namin went out, she was carried out by the matchmaker, and her feet were not allowed to touch the ground. Her veil was hand-sewn by Wu Shi, who had spent several days embroidering it.
Supported by her maids, Lady Wu followed behind Namin, constantly wiping away tears. Lanqin and the others, leading the Fourth Prince's wives and concubines, followed behind Lady Wu; the Fujin (Prince's wife) did not come out to see them off.
The men followed behind Fourth Master to see him off. Suhari and his master mingled among the guests. Ushiha noticed the curious look that person was giving him and couldn't help but glare back at him several times.
The eldest son of the Feng family was also very handsome. He rode a tall horse, wearing a red flower that was half the size of his chest, and looked very cheerful.
Ushiha watched as Namin was carried step by step into the sedan chair by the matchmaker. Then the groom dismounted and personally lowered the sedan chair curtain for the bride. He then went to Fourth Master to pay his respects, before mounting his horse and riding away. Namin's sedan chair followed closely behind the groom's horse. Immediately afterward, Namin's dowry was carried out from the gate, one load at a time.
There were a total of 128 palanquins carried on the procession. Although it didn't have the elaborate bridal procession that stretched for miles, it was still a very generous affair.
The wedding band brought by the groom walked along the road, playing drums and other instruments. The onlookers were amazed, wondering just how rich the dowry of the princess from the Yongwang Mansion really was!
Ushikha held Bechuk's hand and watched as Namin's bridal sedan chair disappeared from sight.
Ushiha couldn't help but look at the person in the crowd, only to find that he wasn't there.
After the wedding procession had gone far away, Fourth Master led his men into the house to drink the wedding wine.
Ushiha subconsciously looked again at the male guest following behind her father, but still couldn't find him.
Over there, a man dressed in a straight-cut mandarin jacket had already walked to the side of the Yongwang Mansion. It was Su Hali. "Prince!" A chubby little boy who was squatting in the corner eating red bean buns saw him coming and quickly stood up and called out.
“Didn’t I tell you to call me ‘Young Master’ outside?” Suhari said.
“Young Master, you came to the Yong Prince’s Mansion without Master Xia’s knowledge. If he finds out, he’ll definitely nag you for ages,” Tuji said.
“That would be perfect. I could just send a congratulatory gift while they were getting married, and the gatekeeper let me in. It’s not like it’s usually so difficult to get in,” Suhari said.
"Young Master, what do you think of the Prince Yong's Mansion?" Tuji asked.
“It’s very, very big. It’s so intricate inside that I almost got lost. Luckily, they’re having a wedding today, so no one paid much attention to me. Even if they did notice, I just pretended I went the wrong way. However, I did encounter someone in this mansion today, which was quite an accident,” Suhari said with a smirk.
"Does the young master have acquaintances?" Tuji asked, tossing a red bean bun into his mouth.
“No, it’s the woman who tried to steal my glutinous rice balls last night. Judging from her attire, she should be from this manor,” Suhari said.
"Young Master, are you still going to attend the gathering that Master Xia arranged for you? He said there's a party the day after tomorrow, attended by the sons and daughters of high-ranking officials and dignitaries," Tuji said.
“Go ahead, anyway, the purpose of coming to Kyoto this time is to make friends with these people,” Suhari said.
Meanwhile, Ushiha ran to the gatehouse to look at the name cards of the guests who had come that day. When the gatekeeper saw that it was Ushiha, he naturally flattered her.
"Show me all your calling cards," Ushiha said, trying to find that person's card among them.
They immediately moved all the door stickers for today to Ussiya's front.
"Fourth Princess, what are you looking for? This servant will help you search." A servant said obsequiously to Wuxiha.
"No need, just look it up yourself." Ushiha didn't know who she was looking for, so she didn't want the doorman to know who she was looking for.
After searching for a while, Ushiha still couldn't find the person she was looking for. Several servants at the gatehouse nearby watched Ushiha rummaging around and wondered to themselves: What is the Fourth Princess looking for?
Strange, who exactly is he? I can't find his calling card at all!
"Did you receive a name card from a blue-eyed person today?" Ushihachi asked the servants standing by the door watching him flip through the name cards.
The servants looked at each other, as if they had never seen such a person before.
“I met one of them. He said he was a friend of the prince, but he didn’t have any name card,” a young servant said timidly. “At that time, I was the only one there; none of you were there.”
"Foolish! How could you let someone in without a visiting card?" A fatter servant slapped the younger servant.
"This servant, this servant thought today was the joyous occasion of our Third Princess's wedding. All the guests here are distinguished, yet someone still comes here to offer gifts?" the young servant protested.
“Fine, from now on, anyone who wants to come in must have a name card; otherwise, they must not be allowed in. What if a thief takes the opportunity to get in?” Ushiha stood up and said.
"Yes, this servant will never dare to do it again," the young servant quickly bowed his head and admitted his mistake.
"Alright, notify all the gatekeepers that they must be extra vigilant in preventing thieves from getting in from now on," Ushiha said. She suddenly felt a sense of danger; if the person who hit her last night was a bad guy who could sneak in now, that would be disastrous.
Ushiha hurriedly ran to the front yard. She wanted to tell the Fourth Master, otherwise it would be very dangerous if some thieves really sneaked in and tried to assassinate him.
Ushiha knew her father was no ordinary man, so she quickened her pace and headed in that direction. However, once she entered the front yard, she had no chance to approach Fourth Master and tell him about it.
Ushiha thought for a moment and decided to go find her mother. So she ran to the west courtyard to find her mother, determined to find this dangerous person out of the mansion as soon as possible.
Ushiha even suspected that the person was hiding in the mansion, waiting to assassinate or steal from his father when he was off guard—wouldn't that be extremely dangerous?
After hearing about this from Wuxiha, Lanqin felt that she had to immediately send people to search all the courtyards, big and small, in the mansion. She couldn't let someone of unknown origin hide in the mansion.
