Chapter 7 Explanation
Chen Tang looked at Second Young Master Xie, who was riding on his horse with high spirits.
Xie Guiyin was really curious about what Chen Tang wanted to say to him.
But despite his curiosity, he did not forget that he was here to welcome the bride on behalf of his brother. He said, "My brother is still waiting for the wedding. If you have anything to say, it won't be too late to talk after Miss Shen enters the gate of my Jingyang Palace."
Chen Tang said, "No one from my Pingyuan Marquis's Mansion will ride in the sedan chair of your Jingyang Prince's Mansion today, please go back."
Xie Guiyin frowned.
Mother Sun thought that Shen Tang was so angry that she married Shen Xi off and wanted to make a few requests to the Jingyang Palace before getting on the bridal sedan, so she didn't stop him. However, she didn't expect that the second girl actually refused to marry.
The Second Madam was worried that the Second Miss would cause trouble, so she sent her to look after her. When she saw that the Second Miss was well behaved, she thought the Second Madam was too worried. She didn't expect that the Second Miss's well behavedness was just to numb everyone.
Does the second girl know what she is doing? !
Xie Guiyin was riding on the horse and suddenly laughed, "Does Miss Shen Er know what the consequences will be if she plays tricks on our Jingyang Palace?"
Chen Tang was not panicked at all, and said calmly, "No need to thank the Second Young Master for reminding me, I know the power of the Jingyang Palace."
"The reason why we let the bridal sedan go back empty is because the prince doesn't need a wedding to bring him good luck. He will wake up before tonight."
Xie Guiyin asked, "Is Miss Shen so sure? What if there is no wedding ceremony and brother can't wake up?"
"If he doesn't wake up, I, Chen Tang, will be buried with him!"
Chen Tang's voice was clear and resounding.
The noisy doorway suddenly became quiet.
Everyone was silent and looked at each other.
The one who came to welcome the bride today was Xie Guiyin, but Xie Guimo's bodyguard Chen Qi also came. Chen Qi was puzzled, "Second Miss Shen was so sure that she was willing to bet her life that my young master would be fine, why didn't she want to get on the sedan chair of Prince Jingyang's mansion?"
Chen Tang said, "The one who is engaged to your family's prince is my eldest sister. It won't work if you want to get married. I will be a widow and I will be married, but your family's prince will be fine. How are we sisters going to get along in the future?"
"My eldest sister is the closest person to me in this world. I can't snatch her marriage when I know that your son will be fine."
Chen Qi said, "The prince is still unconscious. How can Miss Shen be sure that the prince will be fine?"
"We were ordered to come and welcome the bride, but Miss Shen asked us to go back in a few words. The prince has punished us, and we cannot bear it."
No matter what she said, she had to get into the bridal sedan.
Chen Tang pulled out the golden hairpin on her head and stuck it into her arm.
The blood instantly soaked the wedding dress and dripped onto the ground.
Chen Tang suppressed his trembling forehead and asked Chen Qi, "Is it enough for you to report to King Jingyang when you return?"
Chen Qi was frightened. He didn't expect Chen Tang to be so stubborn. He was afraid that she would do something more radical, so he hurriedly said, "Enough, enough..."
Chen Tang pulled out the golden hairpin and threw it at Chen Qi’s feet.
The golden hairpin collided with the bluestone ground, making a crisp sound.
Chen Tang covered his arm and turned to go into the mansion.
Gingko supported her, her face pale, and Chen Tang said, "Help me to the ancestral hall."
Chen Sui and the second and third masters were all in Songhe Hall. When they learned that Chen Tang refused to marry and rushed to the gate, the bridal sedan from Prince Jingyang's mansion had already left.
Knowing that Chen Tang had gone to the ancestral hall, Chen Sui went to the ancestral hall to find her. When she entered the yard, she saw Chen Tang kneeling outside the ancestral hall in her wedding dress.
It wasn't just Chen Sui who went to the ancestral hall, but also the Second Madam and her friends. When she saw Chen Tang, the Second Madam was furious, her lips trembling with anger, "If you don't want to be a substitute bride, you can just say it directly, no one will force you. If you are unhappy alone, do you want the entire Pingyuan Marquis's Mansion to suffer with you?!"
Isn't it enough to force her to marry someone else?
Chen Tang's lips curled up in a mocking smile, "Second Aunt, aren't you curious about why I dare to gamble my life and not get on the sedan chair of Prince Jingyang's Mansion?"
The second wife was almost mad with anger. She suppressed her anger and asked, "Why did you do such a thing?"
Chen Tang's eyes swept across the second wife's face, then looked at Chen Sui and said, "Father, I will kneel in the ancestral hall until Prince Jingyang wakes up."
"I will tell you when Prince Jingyang wakes up."
The second wife had to keep the suspense going until her bright red nails dug into the flesh, suppressing the urge to hit someone.
The Second Wife had never been so angry before. She was asked why he did this, but he didn't tell her. Wasn't he playing a trick on her? !
But Shen Sui was there, so she had to hold back her anger no matter how angry she was.
Chen Tang knelt, kneeling straight.
The arm is still bleeding.
Chen Sui didn't know why his daughter did such a thing, but he knew that his daughter was not such a willful person. No matter how willful she was, she would never say that she would take her life to be buried with others.
The bridal sedan from Prince Jingyang's Palace has already left. Now there is nothing else to do except pray that Prince Jingyang is saved.
Shen Sui said nothing and turned away.
He didn't say anything, so what else could others say? They could only follow him.
After Shen Sui and the others left, the maid brought the golden wound medicine, and Yin Xing carefully helped Shen Tang lift up the wedding dress at his arm and applied the medicine to stop the bleeding.
The wound wasn't big, but it looked a little scary because a lot of blood was coming out.
But the most frightening thing is not these injuries, but whether Prince Jingyang can wake up.
Ginkgo's tears fell, "If anything happens to Prince Jingyang, you just..."
The three words "I'm dead" rolled around in my throat several times but couldn't come out.
Chen Tang chuckled, "He won't die, and I won't die either."
But she had to suffer the physical pain today.
There was a curfew on the streets at night, and if the news of Prince Jingyang's awakening could not be reported back to the mansion immediately, she would have to kneel until tomorrow morning.
But thinking of the grievances her mother had suffered, her eldest brother who was murdered and disappeared, and her second brother who was buried alive, she had to make her father believe as soon as possible that the second wife had evil intentions towards him.
As long as she could make her father believe, even if it was just to plant a seed of doubt, all the pain she had endured would not be in vain.
But Chen Tang had been brought up in a pampered environment and had never suffered such hardship. After kneeling for a while, he felt that his knees were no longer his own. In addition, the wound on his arm was still painful, which made the torture even more severe.
Chen Tang was mentally prepared to kneel all night, but what she didn't expect was that her father came before noon and helped her up while she was kneeling on the ground and struggling to stay standing.
Chen Tang's eyes were red, thinking that her father was worried about her and couldn't bear to let her kneel even if she made such a mistake, so she choked and said, "Father, I'm fine..."
Shen Sui said, "Get up, Prince Jingyang has woken up."
Chen Tang, "......???"
Wake up...wake up?
Shen Tang looked surprised.
Shen Sui frowned in surprise.
Isn’t my daughter sure that Prince Jingyang will wake up?
How come the person actually woke up but looked so unbelievable?
Chen Sui didn't know that Chen Tang was not surprised that Prince Jingyang would wake up. She was surprised that someone who only woke up at night in his previous life would wake up so early, and so much earlier.
But this was a good thing for her, as it meant she didn't have to kneel anymore.
Shen Tang was delighted but somewhat speechless.
Fortunately, Prince Jingyang’s Palace still had to prepare a wedding for the bride. If there was no wedding to delay the event, people would have woken up faster.
