"Second sister."
Changan said, "Aunt, let Shirou come in."
The door opened and Gu Changan stood up from the couch, "Shirou, didn't you go to rest?"
"But Shirou disturbed Second Sister?" Shirou walked over. "Second Sister looks very tired. Is she feeling unwell?"
"I'm just tired, and my legs are a little numb." Chang'an was really tired, but he was just holding on.
Gu Shijia's eyes fell on Chang'an's legs. After a while, she spoke, "With Second Sister's martial arts skills, why didn't she dodge the silver needle?"
Changan seemed to have anticipated what Shijia would say. She smiled calmly and said, "It would be great if I had that ability. To be honest, it's not something I can put on stage.
In fact, when it comes to martial arts, I think my aunt is the one who hides her talents. You are her daughter, so Aunt Meng will naturally give you the best."
"..." Gu Shirou's eyes flashed with surprise, "Second sister, what are you talking about? My mother doesn't know any martial arts."
Chang An looked at Gu Shi Rou with a meaningful smile, and no longer mentioned anything about Meng Si Chan's martial arts skills. "Under the imperial decree, many things cannot be changed, such as I will definitely marry into Prince Xuan's palace.
For example, you and Prince Xuan are no longer destined to be together in this life. For example, no matter how much my cousin hates you and me, she has no choice in the end.
Since you are powerless to change it, you must accept it in the best possible way, accepting the things that cannot be changed from the bottom of your heart. Only in this way will you feel better. Do you understand what I mean?
Shirou thought Chang'an would continue to talk about her mother's martial arts skills, and was thinking about how to evade her question.
I didn't expect her to change the subject.
"Understood. Don't worry, Second Sister. Shirou is not a stubborn person. The most taboo thing in Buddhism is to cling to things that do not belong to you."
"Buddhism? You won't cling to things that don't belong to you?" Chang'an looked at Shirou with a smile. "Sister, you are indeed insightful. If that's the case, I'm relieved."
Shi Rou smiled, a hint of self-mockery in her eyes, "Second sister, in fact, a long time ago, I knew that there would never be such a day for me and the Ninth Prince. Even if the Emperor issued an order to make Prince Xuan and I a couple, it would not be as I expected."
There was a slight hesitation between Chang'an's eyebrows. "From what you said, it seems as if you already knew something?"
"No." Shirou lowered her head and tried her best to hide her inner panic.
When she raised her eyes again, a smile was on her lips, "Yesterday, I met Prince Xuan at the Gambling Pavilion, and he completely and thoroughly cut off Shi Rou's thoughts.
In fact, I never had any hope. Although I feel bad, it is not something I cannot accept.
On the contrary, the Ninth Prince and Second Sister’s wedding didn’t seem to be a big surprise. Shi Rou just asked Second Sister to forget about the Fourth Prince and treat the Ninth Prince well, okay?”
"Of course, I'm not a stubborn person, just like my sister Shirou."
"In that case, Shirou will not bother Second Sister anymore. Have a good rest. I'm afraid Second Sister will be exhausted all day tomorrow."
After Shirou left, she heard Gu Shijia's shouting in the yard. Chang'an was too lazy to say a word to her. He walked out, pressed Gu Shijia's mute point directly, then closed the door and went to sleep.
When Chang'an opened his eyes again, it was already daybreak and two old maids he didn't recognize were standing in the room.
"Miss, get up quickly."
"This..." Chang'an was puzzled. In her memory, when she got married in her previous life, it was not like this. At that time, it was still dark when she was woken up by Aunt Wanxin. Chang'an glanced at the sky outside and said, "Aunt, at this time, did I miss a good night?"
"No, no." The old woman standing nearby said immediately, "It was Prince Xuan. He specifically instructed that Miss Chang'an's rest should not be disturbed and that she should wait until she wakes up naturally."
"Yes, yes," said another, "Miss, you are so lucky. Prince Xuan always considers you."
Changan got up and washed, "You guys go out, just leave Aunt Wanxin and Dongxue behind."
Dongxue looked happy, "Miss, you don't know that Gu Shijia was frozen to death last night. Seeing her look, it really relieved her anger.
I wonder what she will look like when she sees you wearing the wedding dress that was originally prepared for her."
Changan glanced at Dongxue and asked, "Dongxue, are you willing to come with me to Prince Xuan's mansion?"
Dongxue was a little surprised. "Yes, wherever the lady goes, Dongxue will go."
"Aunt, let Dongxue follow me, and you stay with my father." Chang'an said, "You know."
"I know, Miss, don't worry. If anything happens, please let Dongxue remember to tell me." Wanxin's face was full of smiles, but there were some tears and reluctance in her eyes. "I raised you, and now you are getting married..."
"Aunt, what are you doing?" Dongxue said, "The young lady's marriage is a great joyous occasion.
Besides, she is marrying Prince Hyun, who has a very good relationship with our master. If the young lady wants to come back, she can do so at any time."
"Yes! Yes!" Wan Xin finally smiled and said, "Look, it was originally a happy occasion."
The people outside have been waiting for a long time, "Bride, it's time for Xijiao to come in."
She is wearing a phoenix crown and a red bridal robe, and her makeup is dazzling.
Chang'an walked into the red sedan chair with the help of the matchmaker.
There was already a bustling crowd at the gate of the mansion. The three words "Xuan Wang Fu" above the gate were bestowed by the emperor himself.
The sedan door was kicked open, and Bei Mingxuan held Chang'an's hand tightly.
Under the red veil, Chang'an was worried, "Why are your hands so cold?"
Bei Mingxuan smiled, turned around, and said softly, "I'm worried because I've been waiting for you for so long?"
“…” Chang’an, under the bridal veil, was speechless.
Bei Mingxuan smiled, took Chang'an's hand, and walked into the hall.
The wedding is just as tedious. After the ceremony, the newlyweds will be sent to their room.
But what was surprising was that the veil would be removed in public.
In an instant.
In front of everyone was a delicate face with a pair of clear and beautiful eyes that looked a little flustered.
Bei Mingxuan's voice was in my ears, deep and slightly hoarse, "I'm here for everything."
Chang'an's perception was correct. The veil was opened because someone pushed it with internal force, and this person used a lot of strength.
At the same time, Bei Mingxuan also noticed it, but did not stop it. He must have been unwilling to expose himself in front of everyone.
But his words "I'm here for everything" seemed a bit redundant to Chang'an.
She raised her eyes to glance at Bei Mingxuan, a smile on her lips, neither too strong nor too weak, just right.
The hall was silent. It was unclear whether people were stunned by Chang'an's beauty or stunned by the stranger who suddenly broke in.
The man who appeared at the door of the front hall looked like a southerner from his attire, but he had wounds all over his body. Although they were not serious, there were bloodstains that could not be ignored.
