The Crimson Tide Empire proclaimed twenty-six years of spring.

The sky was hazy and the fog was rising. Wan Jing had been awake for a long time. She didn't dare to move lest she alarm Xuan Tuo who was standing beside her.

Looking lightly at the cold and imposing handsome face that had sunk into a deep sleep, if she had not lost her heart beforehand, perhaps she really could have become his true bride.

After three days of being together, they had long since changed from fear to trust.

Although they lived in the same room and slept in the same bed every night, Xuan Tuo had never moved a finger of hers. The "red drop" on the bridal veil was the trust he gave her.

He still remembered the evening before her marriage. The moment he heard that she was going to marry Prince Su, he fainted.

When he woke up, he hadn't even opened his eyes when he heard the conversation between Liusu and Xiao Yu.

The palace seems to have already decided that she will become the Fourth Prince's consort. I think that the Fourth Prince is the son of the Empress's direct relative, and must be the crown prince's life. The familiar voice that Wan Jing heard was Liusu.

"That's right. It's said that Prince Su has already formed a group of concubines. Even Miss Su from the Drunken Red Inn is his new pet." The little girl, Xiao Yu, was complaining for her sake.

"Yeah. She really wasn't just a playboy. Blame it on him for leaving the main room empty. Our young miss's life will be very tough in the future. " Liusu coughed lightly and continued to speak without stopping.

"Sigh!" If that's the case, we can't possibly let young miss marry off by herself. Liusu, I will follow young miss to Prince Su's mansion to serve her for the rest of my life. " The clear female voice showed her determination.

Liusu quickly replied, "Idiot, isn't that a day where you won't be able to stand up for yourself in your entire life?"

This Xiao Yu was really considerate, after all, she was a sister who grew up together. Even though she was a servant, Wan Jing had never been willing to reprimand her.

Cough ? Cough ?

Wan Jing couldn't help but cough lightly.

"Miss, you're awake." Liusu gently called, she was already blushing, afraid that the little miss would hear her conversation.

He nodded slightly. His heart was already dead, so he didn't want to say anything more.

"I beg Miss to be lenient, you can't go against the imperial edict no matter what. That is a heinous crime, and if more than 300 members of the Qin family are imprisoned because of you, it will be your fault." Xiao Yu looked at Wan Jing with a serious expression as she spoke, neither too fast nor too slow.

Wan Jing nodded with great effort. She had clearly heard the girl's intentions. I really can't hurt my father and my family.

"I'm hungry ?" It was already late in the night, and she hadn't eaten for a day. Wan Jing's stomach was already singing an empty song.

Xiao Yu ran out and called for the servant girl to call for dinner.

"What are you thinking about?" Xuan Tuo's low and deep voice suddenly woke Wan Jing up.

She absentmindedly recovered and said, "It's nothing, your highness has awoken. "Let's get up now."

Xuan Tuo lightly called out to Qing Fu, and everyone entered. Xiao Yu was the first one to walk through the door. As soon as she crossed the threshold, she rushed straight towards Wanjing.

"Congratulations to the prince, and to the imperial concubine. I wish the imperial concubine good luck." Her small mouth was as sweet as if it was covered in honey.

Wan Jing had already held her hand with a smile. This little hoof had still not forgotten her master.

The row of pots and pans washed their faces and rinsed their mouths. The maidservants respectfully retreated one by one, not even daring to breathe loudly.

Xiao Yu took Wan Jing's palace attire and Xuan Tuo's court attire and placed them lightly on the chair, intending to help Wan Jing change her clothes ?

"All of you should leave!" He, Wen Che, was not an unromantic person, how could he not know Wan Jing's thoughts?

"You can change it after you go to the screen. I won't peek."

Three days ago, Xuan Tuo had instructed Qing Fu to set up a screen in the inner room. A dark green muslin was embossed on the frame of the red wood, and a towering ancient tree was hanging its branches with a bird nest on top. Next to the tree was a farmhouse, and the gate of the courtyard was slightly ajar.

This dyestuff painter was truly a divine stroke, his hands were full of flowers, and he was filled with the joy of farming. One could not help but yearn to live in an otherworldly village.

Wan Jing had already changed her clothes behind the screen. She lightly moved her steps. She was wearing a moon-white palace uniform. Two pink lotus flowers bloomed on her chest.

Xuan Tuo's intuition told him that these clothes didn't seem to match the happiness of this grand marriage, but in the end, he didn't say anything.

Xuan Tuo had already changed into his court uniform.

Wan Jing only swept her eyebrows, but not her lips. Although her face was towards the sky, she was still as quiet as a lotus, with a clear and bright look.

After changing his clothes, Xiao Yufu entered the room and gave Wan Jing a simple Ruyi bun.

Wan Jing followed Xuan Tuo out of the courtyard of the bridal room. Outside the courtyard stood a large group of people.

"This concubine greets Your Highness and the wangfei." When the four of them were dressed up, they saw a gorgeous woman bowing to them.

It turned out to be the concubines of Xuan Tuo. They were all purple herons, attacking patterns, green geese, and Qingfang.

"Rise." Xuan Tuo didn't even look at him as he flicked his sleeves and left. Wan Jing had no choice but to follow.

When they stepped out of the mansion, the servants were already prepared to leave. After getting on the palanquin with eight people, a large group of people headed straight for Scarlet Tide's imperial palace.

Wanjing secretly opened the goosebumps on her palanquin curtain. From afar, the palace looked like a magnificent palace. Clouds and mist shrouded the area, and ancient trees towered up into the sky.

But today, Xuan Tuo and Wan Jing were only going to Kun Yi Palace and Consort Su's Lotus Palace.

Entering the palace gates, the group of eunuchs and palace maids were all dressed in plain clothes and makeup. Although they weren't dressed in white, Xuan Tuo could already guess that there was no one left in the palace.

He just didn't know who it was. Inwardly, he was curious.

Just as he was hesitating, the head eunuch of the palace, Wu Mingyun, came over respectfully.

"Your servant greets the prince and wangfei. The old buddha and His Majesty have been waiting for a long time at the Kunyi Palace."

Leng Ning's surroundings were filled with a solemn atmosphere. She had sung so many Peking Opera since she was young, but who would have thought that it would actually happen at this moment?

Wen Che blushed with shame. Just play your part.

As the saying goes, when the army comes to block, the water comes to flood the land.
