Isn't the person who fainted on the ground right in front of me the second young lady of the Fu family, Fu Ziwu? She should be at the De Prince's Mansion right now, how did she end up at the Yi Prince's Mansion?
"This... Today is the wedding day of the two young ladies of the Fu family. Could it be that the servants were in such a hurry that they mistook one of them for another?" someone speculated.
Few people would believe that. Even if a servant is busy, how could he possibly mistake his master for someone else?
The second young lady of the Fu family is now unconscious. Who knows what exactly happened, or who plotted against them?
Shangguan Li's face darkened when he saw that the face wasn't Fu Zige's. If the person in front of him wasn't Fu Zige's sister, he probably would have killed her with a single sword strike.
He didn't have time to deal with Fu Ziwu right now; he needed to find his Fu Zige: "Tingxue, quickly go to the Prince De's residence and bring the Princess Consort back!"
"Yes, Your Highness."
One of Shangguan Li's maids responded and ran out of the mansion, afraid that something might happen if she was delayed even for a moment.
Shangguan Li wanted to go too, but his health didn't cooperate, and he was a step behind Tingxue.
The Emperor advised from the side, "Brother Li, Tingxue has already gone there, and the Prince De's residence is not far from here. She will be back soon. You can just wait here."
Shangguan Li disagreed; he insisted on going to fetch Fu Zige. "But Your Majesty, this is my wedding with Ge'er. How can I not be by her side for such a momentous occasion?"
For a moment, everyone was busy trying to persuade Shangguan Li, and no one cared about Lu Qingyan lying on the ground.
[A sudden chill, a sleeping potion.]
[Ding—Your system, Su Han, has gone online and successfully purchased one bottle of the drug "Bewitching," consuming 100 points.]
Lu Qingyan: This is probably the most expensive sleeping pill I've ever used.
Lu Qingyan had Su Han put the sleeping potion in front of her nose and smell it, then she passed out without worry.
The Emperor still couldn't persuade Shangguan Li. He turned to look at Lu Qingyan lying on the ground and hurriedly summoned the imperial physician to treat her.
Upon seeing the second young lady of the Fu family, dressed in a red wedding gown, appear at the Prince Yi's residence, Physician Song was momentarily at a loss for words.
If we call her Princess Consort, then whose family does she belong to? If we call her Miss, then she's getting married today.
Finally, the Emperor asked first, "How is Princess De's health?"
Physician Song then raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead: "Your Majesty, Princess Consort De has been drugged and is unconscious. I have already taken her pulse, and it seems she was drugged before getting into the sedan chair. However, the person who drugged her probably did not expect that the Princess Consort's body could not withstand such a strong drug. It will probably take three or four days for her to wake up."
The Emperor's face suddenly turned very ugly. He had arranged both of these marriages. Was someone drugging the brides and confusing them to express their dissatisfaction?
"Imperial Physician Song, you will stay with Princess Consort De for the next few days until she wakes up and her condition improves before returning to the palace. Also, Fu Shou, go to Prince De's residence and ask him to take his wife back to the Prince's residence. It's not appropriate for her to stay in Prince Yi's residence."
Both Physician Song and Fu Shou acknowledged and then withdrew.
When Tingxue arrived at Prince De's mansion, Prince De and Fu Zige were in the process of their wedding ceremony. They had just finished bowing to heaven and earth and hadn't had time to pay respects to their parents when Tingxue descended from the sky.
Everyone in the capital knew how high Tingxue's status was in Prince Yi's mansion. When she appeared, Prince De gave her some face: "I wonder what important matter Miss Tingxue has come here at this time, that she has to use such a... method."
