Chapter 146 Incident
Lu Yingxi was brought back to her senses and nodded.
She really wanted to stay and see with her own eyes what happened to Lu Zhiran, but she also knew that it was time for her to leave.
If you don't leave now, you really won't be able to leave later.
This time, she personally drugged Lu Zhiran, changed her clothes, and covered her with a veil. Her mother also arranged so many people to keep an eye on this matter, so there would definitely be no mistakes.
With her mother and uncle around, she could continue to live a comfortable life even if she left the capital.
From now on, Lu Zhiran will take her place and struggle in the hell pit of the Jiang family.
Just thinking about it makes me feel so happy!
Lu Yingxi quickly changed into a maid's clothes, lowered her head, and followed the man away quickly.
The front yard was bustling with guests.
As the auspicious time approached, a burst of music came from afar, and the groom's wedding procession arrived.
The bride was covered with a red veil and sat quietly.
She seemed to have no strength left in her body, and her entire body was almost leaning on the maid, who dragged and supported her as she walked out.
When bidding farewell to her parents, the bride was so exhausted that she could hardly hold the cup of tea, thankfully the maid next to her did it for her.
Lu Guanxuan was a little unhappy, but he didn't say much in front of everyone.
Fang's face was covered with tears. She gave her earnest instructions and then said goodbye to her reluctantly.
After watching the bride get into the bridal sedan, Fang slowly wiped away her tears, and a hint of coldness appeared in her eyes.
She had just confirmed that the person under the red veil was not her Xier, but that little bitch Lu Zhiran!
And her Xier must have already left the city safely.
No matter how angry the master was afterwards, he could not change the facts.
For Xier's future, she couldn't care less.
The streets were filled with the sound of gongs and drums, and firecrackers were blasting one after another. Jiang Xingyi, dressed in wedding clothes, was riding on a tall horse. From this perspective, he looked tall and straight, and handsome.
The vermilion sedan chair carried by eight people went around half of the city and finally arrived at the Jiang family.
The sedan chair landed, Jiang Xingyi kicked the door, and the matchmaker led the bride out of the sedan chair.
The Jiang family is not of high status, but they have many guests.
Naturally, everyone from the Marquis Xuanping's Mansion came.
Chu Yunqing's attention was all focused on the bride's dowry. There were only thirty-two boxes, and judging by the ease with which they carried the boxes, it was likely that there wasn't anything good in them.
Chu Yunqing immediately ran to Jiang's side and whispered to her.
Upon hearing this, Jiang's eyes revealed contempt and dissatisfaction.
When the auspicious time arrived, the waiters began to sing the ceremony.
"Bow to Heaven and Earth——"
"Two bows to the parents—"
"Husband and wife bow to each other—"
"present……"
The last word "成" was stuck before he could say it. For some reason, the bride's red veil suddenly fell off.
This is extremely unlucky!
The bridesmaid hurriedly reached out to pick it up and tried to cover the bride again.
Someone in the crowd screamed, "Oh, who is she? She is not the bride at all!"
Everyone's eyes immediately fell on the face of the person wearing the phoenix crown and bridal robe, and the scene suddenly became boiling.
They had attended so many wedding banquets, but this was the first time they had seen someone get the bride wrong.
The bridesmaid dropped the handkerchief in her hand in shock, and the two maids who were supporting the "bride" were also stunned.
"Qiuyue! Why, why is it you?"
It should clearly be the eldest daughter! How did it suddenly become Qiuyue?
Qiuyue had an expression on her face as if she was about to cry. She was already weak and sore all over, and as soon as the two maids withdrew their support, she collapsed directly.
Jiang Xingyi's eyes widened, and he immediately kicked Qiuyue in anger, "How dare you pretend to be a bride, you slut? Who gave you the guts?"
Qiuyue couldn't speak, so naturally she couldn't defend herself.
Madam Jiang Dong spoke coldly, "If the Lu family hadn't authorized this, how could a maid like her have so brazenly impersonated a young lady? The Lu family clearly didn't want this marriage to happen, so they deliberately used a maid as a pretext. Once the bride is sent to the bridal chamber, the matter will be settled, and we, the Jiang family, will have no choice but to accept this loss."
Jiang Yongkang's face was filled with rage and he slammed the table and stood up.
"Good, very good! The Lu family is really going too far!"
He had been feeling resentful about the last time he was demoted and had his salary fined because of Lu Guanxuan, and now this incident happened again, and all the new and old grudges erupted at the same time.
Jiang Xingyi also felt greatly insulted.
"Do you really think I'm interested in the daughter of the Lu family? If she hadn't deliberately seduced me and had physical contact with me, I would have looked down on her! The Lu family actually dared to send a maid away. How dare this lowly maid want to enter the Jiang family? What a foolish dream!"
Jiang Yongkang immediately walked away, "Let's go to the Lu family and ask for an explanation!"
The people from the Lu family who were accompanying the bride were extremely anxious, but they couldn't stop it, so they could only send someone back to report the news.
It was bustling over at the Lu Mansion. Lu Guanxuan was busy socializing with his colleagues. He felt very proud listening to everyone flattering him.
Just then, the servant rushed in, shouting loudly.
"Master, Master, something bad has happened..."
Lu Guanxuan was immediately annoyed. "Why are you making such a fuss on such a happy day? Is there anything so important that can't be discussed later?"
The messenger was sweating profusely, "Master, yes, someone from the Jiang family is here. Master Jiang, Madam Jiang, the son-in-law, and all the guests are here!"
Lu Guanxuan's expression changed, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Shouldn't it be time for the wedding ceremony? What are they doing at the Lu Mansion?"
The servant's face flushed red. "I ran too fast and didn't have time to ask for details."
Lu Guanxuan was so angry that he wanted to hit someone.
Fang tried hard to suppress the smile on her lips, and then she said, "Master, I think something has happened to my in-laws. Why don't we go and see them first and ask them in person."
Now that things have come to this, there is nothing else we can do.
As soon as the two relatives met, there was a sense of tension between them.
Lu Guanxuan frowned, "Master Jiang, what do you mean? Are you dissatisfied with this marriage with my Lu family?"
Jiang Yongkang sneered, "Lord Lu, you still have the nerve to play dumb in front of me after all this? It's clear that your Lu family doesn't take the Jiang family seriously and has no sincerity in forming a marriage! If that's the case, why not just say it directly from the beginning? Why waste all this time and energy on holding this wedding banquet?"
Lu Guanxuan didn't understand why, he just felt that Jiang Yongkang was just as unreasonable as ever.
Fang forced a smile, her tone exceptionally warm, "Master Jiang, is there any misunderstanding between our two families? We sincerely want to get married."
"Then please explain to me what's going on with this bride?"
Mrs. Dong gave a look and someone immediately pulled Qiuyue up.
Looking at the person in front of her wearing a phoenix coronet and a red robe, Fang felt as if she had been struck by lightning and could no longer laugh.
How could it be Qiuyue? Where is Lu Zhiran?
