Chapter 5: The Cowardly and Beautiful Concubine's Daughter and the Cold-Faced Heirless General



"I'll take the person away first." After Qin Xuanzhi said this, he nodded slightly to the third concubine. The third concubine was quite flattered and quickly saluted her future son-in-law.

Qin Xuanzhi ignored the expressions on other people's faces, hugged Tang Wan, turned around and walked out of the house.

Tang Wan was not short, but she still looked a little short in front of Qin Xuanzhi, who was nearly nine feet tall.

Qin Xuanzhi held her as if he were holding a child, without any pressure or burden.

He is thin but has broad shoulders, which makes people feel particularly safe.

Tang Zhaoyu was stunned. Judging from the lower half of Qin Xuanzhi's face that was exposed, he was not ugly at all.

Looking at his hands again, they were whiter than those of the scholars holding pens, and he didn't look ferocious at all.

Somehow, she felt a sense of regret in her heart. Why, why was it not as the rumors said?

But she quickly consoled herself, "The upper half of her face must be too ugly to be seen in public, otherwise why would she wear a mask?"

The faces of the people in the house were not very happy.

I originally thought that Qin Xuanzhi could not be that bad, but now it seems that he is not that bad.

Once people have comparisons, they will begin to feel unbalanced.

What were the rumors in the past? He had the appearance of a dark-faced, fang-toothed devil, was unlucky with his relatives and wife, and was full of bloody evil energy. If he was strong, he could kill a cow.

After my daughter got married, he was beaten to death with one punch.

But now, after removing the upper half of her face, she is clearly a beautiful lady, and she holds tremendous power. There is no way that little bitch would get the chance to marry into such a good family.

The eldest lady also felt regretful. It would have been great if her niece from her natal family had married him.

Everyone in this room has their own ulterior motives, some are regretful, some are angry.

Only the Third Aunt showed her genuine joy, and tears couldn't help flowing from her beautiful eyes.

Her daughter has finally escaped from suffering, and judging by her son-in-law's appearance, he will treat her well.

After she got married, she would be the mistress of the house, without a mother-in-law to worry about. She would not have to deal with the main wife's troubles, nor would she have to be annoyed by her mother-in-law.

She only hoped that her daughter would have a good life in the future. As for herself, she didn't want to leave. She knew that her daughter was a filial and good child, but she didn't want to cause trouble for him.

She hid the small handkerchief in her arms and wiped the tears from her face in a few seconds.

This was the first handkerchief my daughter made, and her fingers were pricked many times.

She wants to keep it well. Perhaps from now on, this will be her only thought.

The people guarding the gate of Tang Mansion were looking inside cautiously.

These are all military generals, and are Qin Xuanzhi's personal guards who have always followed him and have a very close relationship with him.

"Why hasn't the general come out yet?"

"I don't know. Could it be that they knew about the general's situation and then changed their mind at the last minute?"

"Well, that's possible, but going back on your word isn't a good idea, is it?"

"Oh, I heard that little girl is only fifteen or sixteen years old. Is our general considered an old cow eating young grass?"

"Our general is so handsome and smooth-looking. If he weren't... he would be a famous handsome man in the whole area."

"That's true. I hope this young lady will know how to behave and not embarrass the general in here."

A group of people were chattering when they saw a petite girl in the man's arms, with a bright red veil covering her face.

However, the pair of delicate hands that were exposed were tightly grabbing the general's neck.

She leaned in the general's arms like a little bird, they were such a perfect match.

Qin Xuanzhi knew that she was nervous and used his eyes to stop those who wanted to make trouble.

He held Tang Wan in his arms and walked all the way without his wrist ever feeling sore.

He put Tang Wan in the carriage, then got out and mounted the horse.

He sat on the horse, looking relaxed and at ease, with the corners of his mouth slightly curled up. Suddenly a breeze blew, and the wedding gown was slightly wrinkled, and the hem was blown up by the wind. He was truly the center of attention.

Tang Wan looked a little cramped sitting in the carriage.

The outside of the carriage was hung with red silk, but the inside was pitch black. She bravely lifted a corner of the veil and could barely see the furnishings inside the carriage.

She should have been sitting in the middle of the carriage, which was extremely wide and long, and the place where she sat was covered with a soft animal hide cushion.

There is a table on the left with teacups and some snacks on it.

On the right were some books, piled high up.

The smell in here is also dull, with no fragrance or other decorations.

There was only the smell of burning wax, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.

The ground under her feet was also covered with soft mats, but the dull feeling was not relieved at all.

She didn't know that Qin Xuanzhi felt a slight movement in his heart after he put her down.

She was small and sat in the main seat in the middle, looking uneasy, with her slender white fingers intertwined. He really thought that this little wife was quite cute.

I don't know how long it took before she finally arrived.

According to the rules, she was helped down by two bridesmaids and stepped over a brazier before finally reaching the main hall.

Following Zhibin's "Bow to Heaven and Earth."

She followed the man holding the red silk at the other end, knelt down, and saluted politely.

"Bow to your parents twice."

Qin Xuanzhi had no parents, so he worshipped the tablet.

"Husband and wife bow to each other." When the two were bowing to each other, they accidentally bumped into each other's foreheads. Tang Wan felt pain and tears burst out instantly.

But he still kept silent. This was a big day and there couldn't be any mistakes.

After the wedding ceremony, she was sent to the room to wait. There were some dried fruits on the bed, probably just peanuts and longans.

She hadn't eaten much in the morning, and her stomach was rumbling with hunger.

"Squeak~" The door was opened. Tang Wan grabbed the bed sheet under her, feeling a little nervous.

"Madam, are you hungry?" It was the voice of a little maid. Judging from her voice, she was probably not very old.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, the little girl said to herself: "If you are hungry, this servant has prepared something for you. You can eat it. The general ordered this servant to bring it to you."

"Okay, just put it there, I'll eat it in a minute."

The little maid didn't say much, just put down the food and left.

She lifted her veil and began to eat in small bites. In order to avoid smearing her lip balm, she had to eat slowly.

This bowl of shredded chicken noodles tastes very delicious and the noodles are chewy.

It could also be that she was really hungry and thought everything she saw was delicious.

She quickly finished the bowl of noodles and even drank a lot of soup, causing her stomach to swell slightly.

She stood up and walked a few steps to help digest the food.

She tends to feel sleepy when she's full, but now is not the time to feel sleepy.

She pinched herself, trying to wake herself up.

Qin Xuanzhi didn't come back until late at night.

He is not young anymore, and his colleagues are already old enough to be fathers, so naturally they dare not make trouble in the bridal chamber.

But his subordinates did not dare to do so.
