Chapter 86: No Disruption of the Wedding
"A dead man!"
Xiao Jin's expression was terrifying, and his voice was hoarse with suppressed emotions: "Don't mention her! It's good that you didn't touch her."
Having said that, Xiao Jin still asked for water and personally washed Yuntang's hands thoroughly, even washing the gaps between his nails.
His reactions are problematic!
Yuntang didn't ask any further. After Xiao Jin wiped her hands clean, Yuntang took Xiao Jin's arm and laid on the bed. She hugged Xiao Jin and let him lie on her legs.
Xiao Jin's eyes flashed fiercely. When Yun Tang looked at him, he immediately closed his eyes, revealing only a cold and sinister expression on his handsome face.
Yun Tang raised her hand, and gently stroked Xiao Jin's hair with her delicate fingers. His hair was coarse and hard, like that of a short-haired dog. But judging by Xiao Jin's expression, he was definitely not a cute puppy, but a ferocious Tibetan mastiff ready to eat people!
Yuntang seemed to be thinking about something. She had to investigate this Princess Shu!
Not caring about Xiao Jin.
When the Princess of Shu sends her a gift, she has to find out whether it is an enemy or a friend?
"Xiao Yu'er, stay away from her." Xiao Jin had opened his eyes at some point and stared at Yun Tang's pretty face, which seemed to be lost in thought. His gaze was dark and sharp, and he saw through Yun Tang's little tricks.
Yun Tang stared down at him, her almond-shaped eyes sparkling with curiosity, "Is she dangerous?"
"This king will protect you."
Xiao Jin moved his head, resting his ear and cheek against Yun Tang's soft belly. He paused and said, "And our child."
Yuntang smiled faintly and said nothing.
Xiao Jin slept here.
In the middle of the night, Xiao Jin moved very quietly, not disturbing Yun Tang. He sat up, looked at Yun Tang with deep eyes for a while, lowered his head and placed a kiss on her forehead, then dressed and left.
He walked out of the room, his handsome face instantly darkening and cold, and he ordered in a violent tone, "Seal off the official road immediately! Forbid people from Shu to enter the capital!"
"Send a pigeon to pass on my order. Tell the King of Shu to keep a good lookout for his princess! If anything goes wrong again, even if he's my uncle, I'll kill him!"
The secret guard knelt down to receive the order and did it immediately.
Xiao Jin's eyes were fierce and sinister, and his fists were clenched. He would never allow anyone to ruin his wedding! He would never allow anyone to hurt Xiao Yu'er or his child!
Even if this person is his...
Never let go!
Xiao Jin stood at the door for a long time, until it was almost dawn, then he set off back to the Regent's Palace to prepare to personally welcome the important event.
When Yuntang woke up, Tangliju was already packed with people. Immediately after she woke up, countless people rushed into the house, helping her wash and change clothes, fumigating her hair, and then getting dressed up formally.
The royal family followed the ancient custom of marrying at the wedding ceremony, so Yuntang had plenty of time and could even have a light and delicious meal at noon.
It was not until the afternoon that she saw Yun Rongrong and Yun Zhiyi who had woken up.
Yun Rongrong kept touching her neck and body, her expression filled with fear and panic. She muttered tearfully, "When I woke up, I thought I was in the underworld. He's moody and ready to kill people at the slightest provocation. It's terrifying! So terrifying! Tangtang, how did you take down the Regent?"
Yuntang apologized: "I'm sorry for scaring my cousin."
"Tangtang, this has nothing to do with you!"
Yun Rongrong shook her head like a rattle, waving her hands repeatedly, "It's my fault. I shouldn't have accepted the gift so easily. Brother has already taught me a lesson! You're pregnant now. If someone tampered with the gift and harmed you, I would never forgive myself!"
She truly regretted and was afraid.
He was also puzzled, "Who is that Shu Princess? Why does the Regent look so scary?"
Yun Tang looked at Yun Zhiyi, "Cousin, how are you doing?"
"I've found out a little." Yun Zhiyi, a businessman with extensive connections, had gone out that morning to gather information. He explained, "The King of Shu is the Emperor Gaozu's younger brother, born on the same mother. In terms of blood relationship, he's the Regent's uncle!"
"After Emperor Gaozu passed away, the King of Shu returned to his fiefdom. He has been gone for ten years and has not returned since. I heard that the King of Shu did not even attend the late emperor's coronation ceremony or the empress's ceremony, even though the late emperor had issued an imperial decree to invite him. He only sent gifts as a token of his gratitude."
"As for the Princess of Shu..." Yun Zhiyi shook his head helplessly. "There's very little information about her. All we know is that the Prince of Shu married her in Kyoto. I heard she left in such a hurry that she didn't even have time for a wedding. She only made up for it after she arrived in Shu."
Yuntang listened quietly, with a faint light flashing in his eyes from time to time.
Ten years ago, Xiao Jin was sixteen, full of youthful vigor and ambition, a prince of unrivaled dignity. Even if that left a shadow on him, now he was the regent, the young emperor was still young, and he had the final say in state affairs! Why did he react so strongly to the Shu Princess?
What exactly happened?
Princess Shu, what is your past with Xiao Jin?
"Tangtang, don't worry. Today is your big day, you should get married happily!" Yun Zhiyi looked at her infatuatedly, "Tangtang, brother will always be by your side."
"Brother, why are you talking so emotionally?"
Yun Rongrong hugged Yun Tang's arm and nuzzled it intimately. "Jinghe will take the imperial examination next year. We should try to stay in Kyoto so that I can visit Tang Tang more often! And... our future nephew and niece!"
After a pause, Yun Rongrong added fearfully, "It would be best if the Regent isn't at home, otherwise I wouldn't dare go."
Yuntang smiled and nodded in agreement.
Yun Zhiyi didn't say anything more. He turned around and went out to get busy.
The auspicious time is coming!
Yuntang has changed into her wedding dress and put on the phoenix crown.
With the crackling sound of firecrackers and the banging of gongs and drums along the way, the Yun family, young and old, happily and enthusiastically sent Yuntang off to get married. After Yuntang got on the wedding car, the Yun family members secretly hid away and wiped away their tears.
Old Master Yun's voice choked with sobs: "Since Tangtang is willing to marry, I hope that God will have mercy on her and bless her with happiness!"
"Yes! I definitely will!" the old lady vowed, "I donated a lot of money to the temple and even made a golden statue of the Buddha. The Buddha will definitely bless our Tangtang!"
The eldest master of the Yun family, his wife, and his second brother and sister-in-law looked at each other, smiled, and came to support the two elders, "Dad and Mom, let's go! We should go to the Regent's Palace to watch the ceremony and drink the wedding wine."
"Okay, okay, let's go!"
The wedding ceremony was held in the main hall of the Prince Regent's Palace. The young emperor, all the civil and military officials, and the ladies of high rank came to the banquet to offer their congratulations. The hall was decorated with elaborate rituals, luxurious and noble decorations, and was magnificent.
The ground was covered with a dragon and phoenix wedding carpet, sprinkled with gold flakes. It shone brightly in the evening and looked extremely luxurious!
Everyone was talking about it, "It's such a grand gesture for the Prince Regent to marry a princess!"
"Where did this Yun family girl come from? I heard she looks just like the deceased concubine in the palace. Could she be a stand-in?!"
"The auspicious time has arrived!"
The Minister of Rites personally presided over the wedding and interrupted everyone's discussion, "Welcome the Regent! Princess!"
Xiao Jin and Yun Tang appeared at one end of the dragon and phoenix wedding carpet.
When everyone looked out, their eyes almost popped out of their sockets and their mouths opened wide.
Is this the Nine Dragons and Four Phoenixes Crown?
Beneath the phoenix crown and pearl curtain, that stunningly beautiful face, no one, civil or military official, could forget! Wasn't she Su Tangyu? When did she become Yun Tang?
