Chapter 736: Only She's Kept in the Dark
e slowly loosened her grip on the woman's neck, narrowed her cold eyes and stared at her for a long while. She pursed her lips, walked to the side, and after a long pause, turned back: "The secret art...“Little Imperial Uncle has always been cold-hearted and ruthless. Even though his relationship with the Crane Divine Doctor is extraordinary, he wouldn't go to such lengths as to do it himself. There must be something more to this!” Qian Si Chen seemed to have smelled something amiss, her expression changed slightly, and she immediately ordered: “Send someone to watch over the Prince’s Mansion and Mingzhu Residence immediately. If anything unusual happens, report back right away!”
"Yes!" Ling Tian took the order and swiftly turned to leave.
Thousand Thoughts furrowed her brow, muttering to herself, "Little Uncle Huang ah Little Uncle Huang, what are you going to do Ge'er is mine, I won't let anyone take her away!"
Perhaps the more you can't get, the more you want it!
The next morning.
"Miss, get ready quickly, the flower sedan is almost here." Qingluo urged.
"Qing Luo, you're being silly! We only need to prepare Silver Moon for the event. All she needs is a beautiful outfit." Xiao Yu Ge said as she placed a stunning new hair pin into Princess Yin Yue's hair.
Turning her head, she saw Qing Luo holding the wedding dress Qian Tingxuan had prepared for her. She frowned involuntarily: "Qing Luo, what are you doing with this"
"Miss, I don't have time to explain, you change quickly." Qing Luo said as she pulled Xiao Yu Ge aside and sat down. She reached out to change her clothes.
"Qing Luo, what's going on" Xiao Yu Ge only then noticed Yue also beside her, smiling at her. Naturally, she sensed something was amiss.
"Daughter, today is the day of my and He Ming's wedding, and it is also the day of your and the Prince's great joy!" Princess Yinyue finally spoke the truth.
"What" Xiao Yuge was stunned, as if she had also understood why Qian Tingxuan had smiled so strangely yesterday. It seemed they all knew but kept it from her alone.
"My dear, these past two days have been a trial for me. I almost couldn't keep it to myself any longer." Princess Yin Yue sighed deeply.
"Miss, it was the Wangye who instructed me to keep this a secret from you. He wanted to surprise you," Qing Luo said as she skillfully helped Xiao Yuge into a new dress. She was happy for her mistress too.
Although Xiao Yu Ge was surprised, she finally understood why Qian Ting Xuan had invited her parents. The Emperor had been trying to prevent their marriage. If this time, he went ahead and got married before the Emperor could stop them, performing the ceremony in front of his parents, then everyone in the capital would know about it. At that point, even if the Emperor was unwilling, he couldn't possibly issue an edict to break up their marriage.
She was actually a little nervous when they suddenly said they wanted to get married. The weather was nice, but she couldn't stop fidgeting with her fingers.
"Ge'er, you seem a bit nervous" Princess Yin Yue couldn't help teasing her upon seeing this.
"You, aren't you nervous" Xiao Yuge felt her legs were a little unsteady. Was she really going to marry Qian Tingxuan
"I was a little nervous last night, but now I'm not. Maybe seeing you nervous made me feel more balanced." Silvermoon Princess nudged her with her eyes and reached out to adjust the hairpin in her hair.
"Hmm Where's Sister Lu" After finishing her dressing, Xiao Yuge only then noticed that Lu Xiangwan wasn't there and casually asked.
"Oh, just now Sister Lu said she went to the door to see if the palanquin had arrived." Qing Luo answered as she brought over a red wedding cap.
The two brides looked at each other and smiled.
"My dear, you are the most beautiful bride I've ever seen!" Princess Yinyue was a bit speechless: "The King is truly fortunate to have such a beautiful bride."
Xiao Yu's face flushed slightly, and she covered her mouth with a giggle. "Sister Yue is also the most beautiful bride I've ever seen! Brother Shi, being able to marry you must be a blessing from three lifetimes of cultivation!"
"Alright, you two beautiful brides, stop praising each other, you're both the most beautiful brides in the world!" Qingni from the side also brought over a red wedding cap.
"My lady, the flower palanquin has arrived!" Lu Xiangwan's voice came from outside at that moment.
Xiao Yu Ge took the red蓋頭 from Qing Luo's hands and gently placed it on Princess Yin Yue's head: "A Yue, I never expected that we would get married on the same day!"
"I never expected this either! So, Ge'er, we both shall be happy!" Princess Yin Yue placed the red veil from her own head onto Xiao Yu Ge's.
The two walked out of the room hand in hand.
"Ge'er, your elder brother is here to send you off!" At this time, Chu Tianqi, also dressed in red, walked to Xiao Yuge's face and knelt down. She had once said that on her wedding day, she wanted him to personally send her out as an elder brother, and he had to do it.
"Brother, thank you!" Xiao Yuge was not polite either, leaning onto his back.
From the room to the main gate, just a hundred steps, yet Chu Tianqi wished it would never end. He couldn't marry her, and now, wearing red, he was carrying her across the red carpet, as if they were getting married once more. But sending his beloved girl onto another man's palanquin with his own hands, his heart bled!
At this point, the onlookers outside began to murmur amongst themselves.
"Isn't that Grand Tutor He's actually carrying the bride. This Protectorate Princess is really lucky, a single woman being made a princess, and having the Grand Tutor himself carry her out to marry, still marrying into the Wang family. She must have accumulated good karma in her past life."
"That's right, with such a stunningly beautiful face, she's clearly blessed with good fortune. In the future, she'll surely bring prosperity to her husband!"
Xiao Yu Ge silently listened to all of this, her gaze as calm as water. She had avenged the wrongs of her past life, making Chu Tian Qi willingly gouge out his own eyes for her. She had also turned him into the subject of everyone's hushed whispers behind their backs, further humiliating him by forcing him to marry another woman. After today, the entire capital would be abuzz with the tale of how the esteemed Minister of War, a man held in high regard, had secretly married a woman he was infatuated with and then given her away to another man!
At this moment, she seemed to taste a hint of the thrill of revenge!
"Huh What's going on Wasn't it said that the Prince was marrying a Princess How come there are two palanquins, two brides, and two grooms Could it be that the Prince is taking both of them as wives, enjoying the blessings of many women"
"Don't talk nonsense! I heard that the Prince is very fond of the Guardian Princess. They are inseparable on a daily basis, how could he possibly take a concubine I heard that it was a divine doctor from the Prince's mansion who got married today. The Prince treats his subordinates very well, so they all chose to marry in the Prince's Mansion."
"So that's how it is! But I heard the Emperor didn't agree to the marriage between the Prince and the County Lady. How come it suddenly became a reality"
"Who knows about these royal matters Perhaps Your Majesty has agreed to it now"
"You all are courting death! You're just here for the spectacle, yet you dare to comment on royal affairs Be careful, or you'll be beaten!"
Everyone else fell silent upon hearing this.
Xiao Yu Ge felt like she was dreaming. She couldn't believe Qian Ting Xuan had actually married her. All of this was so unexpected.
He's really something else, sneaking off on his own like this and leaving her completely unprepared. After paying respects at the temple later, she'll have a good talk with him........take you home!” Qian Tingxuan said, then scooped her up and leaped out the back window."Qiantingxuan, you're not a man of your word!" Xiao Yuge struggled in his embrace, but couldn't break free...
