C5 This rooster is a double?

"Ban Xia!"

"Mother!"

The mother and daughter pair were separated once again.

However, this time's departure was different than before.

If he were to be married from the Shang Shu Fu, then after he left this palace, he would no longer be a member of the Shang Wang Manor.

Of course, Ban Xia, who was' forced to marry 'now, did not have such a realization.

The gongs and drums outside shook the heavens, because this was a royal wedding ceremony. The procession naturally welcomed them with unparalleled honor. It was grand and bustling with noise and excitement. However, Ban Xia could not feel even the slightest bit of this lively and joyous event.

With a red veil over her head, she was led out of the Shang Shu Fu by the nanny and onto a bridal sedan chair.

Such a grand display and such a lively atmosphere naturally attracted the attention and attention of countless people in the capital.

"Prince Feather is the groom, and he didn't come to get married today. I think it was one of his trusted followers who came in his stead."

Isn't it normal for the Prince Feather to be severely injured? This seriously injured person can't ride a horse, he can't be jolted around casually, and it's hard to say if he can fall down now. In any case, none of us have seen him leave the manor, right?

"Could it be that the one who married was the young miss of Shang Shu Fu?"

"Shh, I heard some rumors say that this bride isn't the big miss of Shang Shu Fu, but the Second Miss's Second Miss."

"Second Miss, when did you come out of nowhere? I don't know, I've never heard of it."

"They were born from a concubine and were not spoiled. I also heard that a month ago, this master of the Shang Shu Fu sent people to bring them back to the house. In the past, they were left outside, and they did not care at all."

"It's a pity that this Second Miss has now become her wife. If I don't return to Shang Shu Fu, even if I were to stay outside, I can at least find an honest and strong husband to carry the burden of a family."

Everyone gathered and discussed softly about the Shang Shu Fu and his affairs. Of course, there were many people who expressed sympathy towards this unfavoured bastard who gave birth to the Second Miss.

The palanquin swayed, causing Ban Xia to become dizzy and almost fall asleep.

She was a little listless herself, getting up too early.

At the same time, in the capital city, the entrance of the Prince Feather Mansion was even more lively, with even more commoners gathering as a spectator.

As for the guests in the front courtyard, they were even more numerous. Nearly all of the capital's leading figures, including some nobles in the imperial court, were present today.

"The Emperor is here!"

"Kneel!" Someone from the crowd shouted loudly. All the guests present stood up and knelt down in unison.

This marriage was personally bestowed to him by the current emperor. It wasn't strange for him to personally come to the ceremony to congratulate her.

However, the groom didn't show himself for a long time.

Seeing that the auspicious hour was about to arrive, nanny couldn't help but become anxious.

This was a marriage ceremony, and the current emperor was personally presiding over it. However, the groom hadn't come out yet.

The expression on Qian Yeli's face didn't look good either.

No matter what, he was now the ruler of a nation, the supreme ruler. He had humbly descended upon the Prince Feather Palace.

Was he dissatisfied with this marriage, or was he dissatisfied with him, the ruler of a country?

His father-in-law who was following him immediately summoned the steward from Prince Feather Palace and asked with a stern face.

"The auspicious time is almost here. What's going on with the Prince Feather? Where did he go?"

Seeing this, the steward of the Prince Feather Palace trembled as he rushed forward to report.

"My Prince ?" "He's still lying on the collapse. He seems to have gotten more sick recently and can't fall down ?"

Almost everyone knew that Prince Feather was heavily injured.

As for the extent of his injuries, not many knew or had seen him.

The Emperor's expression changed a few times.

But now, under the gazes of everyone in the room, he was unable to flare up.

When the Prince Feather led the troops to invade the enemy, they were severely injured. It could be said that they were injured on behalf of the country.

"Then what do we do when there is no groom when we pay our respects?" His father-in-law felt a headache just thinking about it.

The steward of the manor seemed to have long thought of a plan to deal with this situation.

"Your Highness has said ? Since he is unable to personally come to pay respects, he can only find a substitute. "

Qian Yelei didn't give any response and gave her tacit consent.

Ban Xia, whose head was covered by a red veil, was not the least bit anxious. Regarding this marriage, she had never expected it to happen, so whether the groom would come or when he would come, was not something that she needed to be concerned about.

"Then hurry up and call the double over. It's getting late, don't miss the auspicious time!" his father-in-law ordered in a high-pitched voice.

The emperor had already come. It was a joyous occasion today, and he should never let anything go wrong.

The steward of the manor hurriedly went to find a substitute.

After waiting for a long time, he saw that the steward had returned quickly with a rooster in his arms. A rooster that seemed to be lively and energetic.

However, the rooster's two chicken feet were securely tied together with a rope.

What is this?

The steward of the manor was too rude!

This was the reception hall of the wedding, the lobby. Why did he bring a completely unrelated rooster here?

The Emperor's face instantly became even uglier.

The other guests were even more perplexed.

Even the nanny beside Ban Xia began to mutter in her heart, what was the Duke Palace trying to do?

What happened to his double? Where was he?

The steward nervously wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead. He hugged the rooster and bravely walked in under the gazes of everyone present.

"Reporting to the emperor, this is the prince's substitute."

The moment he said that, everyone's expression changed.

The expression on the face of the monarch who sat at the head of the table darkened.

"What?"

In the face of the Holy Lord's rebuke and anger, the Duke Palace's steward trembled and softly repeated his words.

Ban Xia's body became unstable, and she almost fell down from the impact.

Think of a live rooster as a substitute for the Prince Feather. Use this rooster to marry her?

Who the hell thought of such a despicable method?

Wasn't this simply scolding her in a disguised manner? She was just a lowly hen.

The little face under the red veil was red with anger.

The small hands under the wedding dress had also become fists out of anger.

You don't have to bully people like that!

"Your Majesty, this is the prince's intention. That's why, on this day of great celebration, he chose this spirit pet as his substitute, and helped him accomplish the major event of his life and complete the great gift. " The steward must have put in some effort to explain this' lines' perfectly.

To treat a rooster as a spirit pet was a very special hobby!

Qian Yeli suddenly wanted to kill this steward in front of her. She could just give him a bottle of Red Crane Head's Elixir directly.

"Impudent!" What kind of words are these, the Prince Feather is too reckless! " The eunuch by the emperor's side observed his words and hurriedly gave his master the authority he deserved, "Get a few people. Even if they have to be lifted, bring the Prince Feather over here!"

The steward of the Prince's Mansion held the rooster in his arms and knelt down in front of Qian Ye Li with a thump.

"I can't accept it!" Your Majesty, please open your anger, His Royal Highness ? The Imperial Physician also said that with the current situation, you can't get up, nor do you want to fall down. Otherwise, your injuries will only get worse. "

The faces of all the guests in the room were complicated. No one dared to interject at this moment, fearing that they might be in trouble if they were to be careless.

It was as if a heavy stone was pressing down on Qian Ye Li's chest, making him feel uncomfortable. The pressure made him want to jump up and curse, and even made him want to kill someone.

However, he was no longer a young fool, so he waved his hand in annoyance, "Let's continue!"

It was a form of acquiescence in the existence of this rooster.

Right now, he only wished for the ceremony to be completed quickly. He wanted to quickly leave Prince Feather Palace, this place where trouble was brewing. He really didn't want to stay for even a moment longer.

Only then did the steward use his eyes to signal to the nanny, while he carried the honorable rooster and walked to the center of the Huatang.

nanny also quickly reached out his hands to pull her, half pushing and half pulling, wanting to bring the bride to the center of Huatang.

But who would have known, that Ban Xia only took one step, yet stopped in place, and was unwilling to take another step.

With so many pairs of eyes staring at him from all four sides, nanny could not help but become nervous.

He carefully poked the bride with his finger, then reminded her in a low voice.

"Miss, it's time to pay respects. The auspicious hour has arrived!"

Ban Xia was still standing there, motionless, as if she didn't hear anything.

The nanny signalled again, then gently pushed her.

"Miss, the emperor is watching. Please don't have such a short temper."

But Ban Xia didn't seem to take advantage of her, she was getting more and more anxious, but Ban Xia wasn't anxious at all, she just stayed there steadily.

The leader of nanny could only use his trump card.

"Miss, think about your birth mother. Your birth mother is still in Madam's hands. If today's joyous occasion is not successfully completed, you might never see her again ?"

This final threat made Ban Xia's figure sway, showing some sort of reaction.

Now, the only person that she cared about or cared about was her birth mother.

But who was Ban Xia? Ever since she was reborn, she had not been the same delicate Ban Xia who had always been submissive and accepted, and had never dared to resist, nor did she dare to retaliate in the first place.

She walked around the nanny and headed straight for the center of the Huatang. However, she kneeled down in front of the Emperor's seat.

"Your majesty, please uphold justice for the maidservant!"

Since she had not married, her current identity was still Second Miss.

Qian Yeli's eyelids began to twitch. Today's joyous event had not been resolved yet, but it had happened again and again ?

"Speak!"

Even though the red veil covered Ban Xia's face and she couldn't see anything clearly, she knew that she had to get back at him for her pride!

"Your Majesty, the Prince Feather has a distinguished identity, and has been pardoned from battle. How can she be compared to a rooster? Today, if maidservant had truly become sworn brothers with this beast in Huatang, and this rooster was also Prince Feather's substitute, wouldn't that mean that he was scolding Prince Feather as an animal? Therefore, maidservant will definitely not kowtow to this beast today! "
