Chapter 217 Please Think Twice, Sister!
In the evening, the bridal sedan arrived outside the gate of the Ninth Prince's Mansion.
Mu Cang got off the horse and walked to the front of the bridal sedan. Just as he was about to lift the curtain, he heard the sound of galloping horses coming from far away.
Mu Cang's eyes turned cold: "Mo Yun!"
"I obey your order!" Mo Yun raised his hand and waved, "Guards stop it! No one is allowed to disturb the prince's worship."
"Yes."
Outside the gate of the palace, guards with swords came out in unison, and in a flash, they built a human wall outside the wedding procession.
"Mu Cang!" Yan Zheng sat on the horse and said coldly, "Yan Li is the younger sister of this prince. You can't marry her without the permission of the queen mother!"
The originally joyous palace suddenly had a sense of tension.
Mu Cang ignored him and handed one end of the red silk to Yan Li in the bridal sedan.
Yan Li was stretching her body gently.
She was almost falling apart after sitting in the sedan and circling the city.
The sedan chair was very comfortable, and the person carrying it was as steady as a rock, but it couldn't stop the backache caused by sitting in the sedan chair for most of the day.
Yan Li slowly took the red silk and looked up at Mu Cang.
"I can see your eagerness." She smiled, "But no one can stop me from doing what I promised."
Don't say how noble the status of the Queen of Jin is, and don't say that a daughter must listen to her mother's words.
In fact, Jiang Yi's daughter is dead.
Now Yan Li is really not something she can control just by calling her daughter.
Jiang Yi's motherly love, which was delayed for more than ten years, could not save her biological daughter's life, and Yan Li would not be ecstatic because of the additional identity of a Jin princess.
…
The palace was very lively, and there were many guests coming to drink the wedding wine.
Except for the ministers who were left in the palace to receive the guests after the morning court, all the others who could come came.
Royal family princesses, wives, married princesses, princesses, noble women, wives of officials... and young men and unmarried girls.
Laughter and joy, the atmosphere was very lively.
The emperor's oral instructions conveyed by Ye Qi halfway obviously did not affect the joy in the palace. The men stayed in the hall to eat and chat, always paying attention to the excitement outside.
However, Yan Zheng's words caused a burst of surprise among the guests: "Princess Nanyang is the prince's sister? Which prince? This... what is going on?"
At the young prince's table, King Jing looked around with peach blossom eyes: "The Queen of Jin is visiting today, congratulating the Ninth Prince and Princess Nanyang on their wedding. You don't need to pay more attention to it."ŴŴŴ.
The Queen of Jin?
The princes frowned in confusion. Didn't Princess Nanyang's mother pass away a long time ago? How come a prince brother suddenly appeared?
The man who was shouting outside the palace was the prince of Jin?
At another table, Mingqi and Rong Xiao looked at each other, exchanged a tacit look, and then drank in silence, their eyes were thoughtful.
Mu Cang led Yan Li to the wedding hall, and the bridesmaid said a series of auspicious words of blessing.
The ceremonial officer in charge of the wedding from the Ministry of Rites sang loudly in unison with every step of the wedding, solemnly and rigorously.
The busy servants and maids who came in and out were all beaming with joy, all of them were happy for their own prince to get married.
At this moment, the noble ladies staying in the female guest house were excitedly discussing the news they had just received.
"Princess Nanyang is actually a princess? Her mother is not dead?" The voice was surprised and shocked, as if they had heard some Arabian Nights fairy tale.
"More than dead?" whispered in a low voice, with incredible surprise, "I heard that she is the queen of Jin with a noble status, the mother of a country, and can be regent."
A young girl murmured to herself: "Princess Nanyang actually has such a noble status... It's true that the real person doesn't show his face!"
"The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. The queen of Jin can actually break the convention and hold the power of regent. She must be very powerful."
"Isn't it?"
"The Jiang family must regret it. They didn't take Princess Nanyang seriously, but took Jiang Jingyue seriously. Holding her in the palm of their hands, let's see how they can get off the stage now. "
"And those who keep saying that she is a fake princess probably never dreamed that Princess Nanyang is actually a princess. No wonder the emperor favors her so much."
"Yes, I said that the emperor is so wise, how could he favor an orphan girl without blood relationship without knowing the truth."
There are two tables in this female living room, and all the people sitting there are unmarried girls, some are fourteen or fifteen years old, and some are sixteen or seventeen years old. The younger ones can't help but speak without restraint.
The discussion was heated. Most of the girls at this table were daughters of military generals. Their fathers or brothers were either under the command of the Ninth Prince, or subordinates of the Protector of the Country, or on duty in the Imperial Guard.
These girls have common topics together, and their minds are not so heavy.
It's just that I don't know if they have seen Jiang Jingyue and Yan Li. When they were chatting happily, they didn't seem to notice Jiang Jingyue sitting in the corner.
"Jiang Jingyue, you are the daughter of the Jiang family, and you are not the same as those rude girls from military families." Song Yingxue, the daughter of the Minister of Revenue, sat beside her and reminded her arrogantly, "Why do you care about those things that are not presentable?"
Jiang Jingyue's face was as pale as paper, and she couldn't hide her embarrassment. She held the chopsticks so tightly that you could almost see the blue veins on the back of her hand.
Jiang Yi didn't die, and became the queen of Jin.
Yan Li was actually the daughter of the emperor of Jin, a legitimate daughter of a rich family?
How is it possible?
Why did God treat Yan Li so well? All the good luck was given to her, why?
Jiang Jingyue felt a strong hatred in her heart, and felt that God was unfair to her, giving all her good luck to Yan Li.
Yan Li is a thief!
She is the thief who took away her luck!
"Miss Jiang doesn't look very happy." Mu Yun looked over, "Can't bear this blow?"
It's normal not to be able to bear the blow, after all, who would have thought that Yan Li's sparrow was actually a golden one?
But a golden sparrow is still a sparrow, and it has nothing to do with a phoenix.
Jiang Jingyue didn't speak, and her whole body was cold.
"But then again." Mu Yun stared at Jiang Jingyue and said meaningfully, "If the queen of Jin is really Yan Li's mother, then isn't she the daughter of your aunt, Master Jiang?"
Jiang Jingyue was startled and looked up at her.
"If she is the queen of Mu, according to the rules of monarch and minister, everyone in the Jiang family must salute her - including Master Jiang and the old lady, but it's a pity that she is the queen of Jin."
Jiang Jingyue slowly came back to her senses, and the hand holding the chopsticks unconsciously loosened a little.
Yes, Jiang Yi is the queen of Jin, and the system of superiority and inferiority between the monarch and the ministers does not work in Mu.
Even if she is still alive, it cannot change the fact that she is the daughter of the Grand Tutor.
In front of their biological parents, children must maintain their filial piety, otherwise...
"The newlyweds are worshipping heaven and earth!"
A young girl stood outside the window and looked out. The front yard was very lively, and the voice of the ceremonial officer was clearly heard.
"First worship heaven and earth-"
"Second worship parents-"
"Husband and wife worship each other-"
"The ceremony is over, send to the bridal chamber!"
