Chapter 194: The wedding dress becomes ugly when paired with tears
Chen Lezhi jumped off the windowsill and was about to try on clothes when Chen Yushi grabbed his wrist.
She looked at Chen Yushi in confusion, "Brother?"
Chen Yushi said coldly, "I'm here to see you off from the Hanzhong Palace. I don't need my sister to make any sacrifices for my future. My sister is there to be loved and protected, not to shield me from the wind and rain."
Chen Lezhi withdrew his hand.
She pulled down her wedding gown hanging on the wooden plank and said firmly, "Brother, have you misunderstood? I'm already of marriageable age. The Fang family has been noble for generations, and I couldn't ask for more! My wedding gown is very beautiful. Wait a minute, I'll go change into it now!"
"If you marry someone you don't like, you'll cry." Chen Yushi stopped her again. "No matter how beautiful the wedding dress is, it will become ugly when paired with tears. But my sister has been beautiful all her life. I don't want her to be ugly only on her wedding day."
Chen Lezhi lowered his head, his body shaking uncontrollably.
She whispered, "I don't dislike Fang Chengjun."
"You're lying! When Mother brought you to meet Xie Guanlan, you said Xie Guanlan was a beast in human form and a murderer by nature, and that you shouldn't marry such a man. But before Fang Chengjun was beaten to death by his enemies, he was even more cruel than Xie Guanlan. He even tortured and killed the elderly, children, women, and even young children!"
Chen Yushi has always been calm and gentle, but at this moment, her voice trembled, "Our Lezhi can't marry this kind of person..."
"I didn't choose to marry Fang Chengjun because of you." Chen Lezhi suddenly raised his voice, "I did it for Mother, for all of us! Have you ever thought about what would happen to Mother, and what would happen to me, once you are no longer the Crown Prince?!"
Although their maternal grandfather and uncle were prominent military figures, they had died in battle ten years earlier.
Neither my mother nor they have any foreign relatives to rely on.
Once Chen Yushi loses his position as the crown prince, the concubine in the palace will skin them alive!
And their father...
Their father favors his concubine and neglects his wife. He is even more hateful than that concubine!
Chen Lezhi held back his tears, but his expression was resolute. "You have already sacrificed a lot for me and Mother. This time, it's my turn... Sister."
The word "Ajie" is so low that it cannot be heard.
It is a taboo between the three of them, mother and daughter, and a secret they have guarded together for more than ten years.
They knew very well that Chen Yushi would betray her gender, her loves and hates, and she would carry the gender and identity she disliked until the end of her life and into the eternal history books.
Chen Lezhi was strong and didn't shed tears.
But on the floor, the deep and light wet colors gradually spread.
Chen Lezhi took out a handkerchief and slowly wiped the tears from Chen Yushi's cheeks. "Sister, compared to everything you've been through these years, is marrying into the Fang family really an injustice? Sister, I've grown up, I feel sorry for you, and I want to share your worries!"
Star bridge, flaming trees, and thousands of red lotus petals.
The little princess of Hanzhong Palace has grown up and is about to get married.
The tenth day of May.
Wen Xingluo, Xie Shi'an and Wei Ying went straight to Chang'an, originally planning to arrive before the wedding. However, King Hanzhong and the Fang family were afraid that the marriage would change if delayed, so they held the wedding two days in advance.
Chang'an was prosperous and the traffic was jammed.
The three of them squeezed into the crowd. The officers and soldiers cleared the streets, and with the loud sounds of suona and gongs and drums, the wedding procession passed through the streets in a lively manner.
A bright red wedding sedan was mixed in the middle of the procession, with its gold-woven curtains swaying slightly.
Wen Xingluo saw Chen Lezhi sitting in the sedan chair holding a lotus fan.
The once lively and cheerful little princess now seemed to have a lot more sadness between her eyebrows.
She subconsciously asked, "Fourth brother, have you seen Le Zhi?"
Xie Shian looked at the bridal sedan.
From childhood to adulthood, he has seen many different versions of Chen Lezhi.
Triumphant, heroic, pathetic, pretentious...
But he had never seen Chen Lezhi like this before.
He clenched his fists and whispered, "It doesn't look like her at all."
Wei Ying urged, "What are you two still standing here for? Go to Fang's house!"
The three of them arrived at the Fang family's house, only to see wedding silks hung high in the mansion and guests flocking in.
Because Fang Chengjun is now a paralyzed living dead, the Fang family did not prepare a wedding ceremony and directly sent Chen Lezhi into the bridal chamber.
Wei Ying said decisively: "Let's go find her in the new house."
"No," Xie Shian said anxiously, "Cousin, can you please look at me? How can I, a man, go to the new house?!"
Wen Xingluo glanced at the maid passing by, and then glanced at Xie Shian.
Xie Shian: "...I don't want it."
However, his resistance was of no avail.
Wei Ying held his head down, dressed him up as a maid from the Fang family, and then they sneaked into the bridal chamber together.
In order to select the Crown Prince's Consort for Chen Yushi, Chen Lezhi offended almost all the young ladies in Hanzhong County. Therefore, there was no young girl to accompany him in the bridal chamber, and Chen Lezhi was left alone.
"Happy!"
Wen Xingluo poked his face out from outside the door.
Chen Lezhi looked over in disbelief, "Ningning?!"
Xie Shian's face appeared above Wen Xingluo again, "Mr. Chen, we are here to help you escape from marriage!"
Chen Lezhi: "Xie Si?"
Wei Ying's face appeared above Xie Shian, "I'll help you fight your way out!"
Chen Lezhi: “…”
She invited the three of them in, and after she and Wei Ying got to know each other, she frowned and said, "Thank you for coming all the way here to save me, but I married into the Fang family willingly, and I will not run away from this marriage."
"You married into the Fang family simply to help your brother find allies." Wen Xingluo said bluntly, "But no matter how powerful the Fang family is, can they compare to the Zhenbei Palace? Lezhi, we are your allies!"
Chen Lezhi was stunned and looked at Xie Shian.
Xie Shian nodded. "Ningning and I agree. As long as your brother is willing to be my eldest brother's ally, and stand by my eldest brother no matter what happens in the future, then we can help him consolidate his position as the crown prince. In this way, you don't have to sacrifice your own marriage."
"Time is running out, let's talk outside first." Wei Ying helped Chen Lezhi take off the heavy phoenix crown. "You dress up as a maid and go out with them. I'll stay here and deal with the Fang family for you. I kill people quickly, don't worry."
As they were talking, footsteps were suddenly heard outside.
Chen Lezhi tightened his fan, "It's the maid sent by Concubine Liu to escort the bride. She said she was escorting the bride, but she was actually spying on her...Hide quickly."
The moment the old nanny stepped into the bridal chamber, Wei Ying had already drawn her sword.
One sword to the throat.
She had sheathed her sword before the old lady fell to the ground.
Facing everyone's surprised gazes, she said calmly, "I told you, I kill people quickly."
