Passion On Beauty Rather Than Power - C261
In the room, the doctors were in a panic as they tried to dissect the baby. Liu Ruo barely survived. With great difficulty, she managed to give birth to the child. After she gave birth, she fainted because of a massive loss of vitality.
Outside the room, Xiao Ze, who was in a joyful mood when he successfully delivered the baby, rushed into the delivery room as soon as he heard that Liu Ru had fainted.
When Nangong Waner heard from the doctor that she was born, and that she was a daughter, she immediately let go of all her worries. Her days of fatigue and nervousness immediately crushed her mind, and she immediately fell down.
This time, the Xiao Residence was in chaos again. Xiao Ze called someone to send Nangong Waner back to the Assistant Minister’s Residence, while he himself busied himself with taking care of the newly born child and Liu Ruo.
When Old Madam Xiao and Lord Xiao heard that a girl had been born, they pursed their lips and left without saying anything. The expression on their faces was somewhat obscure.
In short, their faces were filled with impatience and disdain, as if they were the ones who had been busy for many days.
Not to mention the Xiao Mansion was in a mess, even Assistant Minister’s Residence was in a mess right now. Nangong Waner was going to get married tomorrow, and he still hadn’t come back in the evening.
The Lord Assistant Minister was extremely anxious, and did not dare to openly send people to the Xiao Mansion to search for her. This reputation…
When the moon was up, Nangong Waner was carried over to the Willow House by the Xiao Clan’s carriage.
Nangong Waner rested for a while, but he still walked down the carriage with a face full of exhaustion.
Liu Hong and Ju Xiang hurriedly supported her.
Lord Assistant Minister is really something, I can’t beat you, I can’t curse you, “Girl, can’t you be more careful of your own life’s affairs, I’ll make you angry sooner or later, alright?
Lord Assistant Minister knew that Nangong Waner must have suffered a lot after staying up all night, so she did not bear to see Nangong Waner reprimanding her, and quickly sent Ju Xiang to lead the young miss back to her room to rest.
That night, the Prince Zhang was unable to sleep.
He could usually control his emotions, but now that he thought about his wedding with Nangong Waner tomorrow, he couldn’t calm down for a long time. He slowly couldn’t sleep either.
Prince Zhan tossed and turned for a long time, until the first light of the morning, before feeling sleepy. However, in just a few hours, he had to go to Assistant Minister’s Residence to get married.
Thinking about how they would get married in a few hours time, Prince Zhan found it difficult to suppress his emotions. Before dawn, he left the room and went to find the butler of the Duke Palace to check up on the wedding.
Just as Prince Zhan was checking the guest list in the living room, Zi Ye walked over with a worried expression.
“Your Highness …” The hidden guards we have left in the Assistant Minister’s Residence have come to report that Princess Hua-Yang is overworked and is unable to sleep soundly, so I’m afraid she won’t be able to get on the bridal sedan … ”
When Prince Zhan heard this, he looked up and glanced at Zi Ye. His expression didn’t change at all, and only said one sentence lightly, “Understood.”
When Zi Ye saw that the Prince Zhan didn’t have any reaction, he couldn’t help but say anxiously, “Your highness, you finally got yourself a big wedding, and you waited for this day with three royal decrees …” Zi Ye wanted to say something, but hesitated. He was worried for the Prince Zhan in his heart.
Prince Zhan still did not seem to be in a hurry, he carefully checked the guest list, and then handed it over to the butler of the Duke Palace. He then said a few words to the butler of the Duke Palace, “On the wedding table, lay a few plates of the crystal cake that Wan Er likes the most, so as to prevent Wan Er from tiring and finding something to eat.”
“Your highness, the food on the wedding table is very particular. Peanut red dates are very round, and if you want to have children early, you should not set out your food randomly.” The steward of the manor respectfully explained.
“Wan Er doesn’t like to eat red dates with peanuts. Just put the crystal cake on it and it will be my wedding.
The steward of the estate still wanted to persuade him otherwise, but Zi Ye kept giving him a look to indicate him to stop talking. In his heart, the steward of the estate also knew that besides the words of his wife, Prince Zhan had never heard of anyone else.
The steward of the manor silently complied.
Prince Zhan rode his horse with limitless scenery, his expression indifferent but at the same time high-spirited. Behind him was the whole line of people from the Duke Palace, who could line up from the top of the city to the bottom of the city. It was so vast that one couldn’t even see the end of it.
The heroic appearance of the Prince Zhan, the wealth of the Duke Palaces, and the magnificent scene of the Duke Palaces were all welcomed by other women.
Seeing that the Prince Zhan’s wedding procession was coming, Nangong Waner was barely able to comb his hair, change his makeup, and put on his wedding clothes. He could not take the fatigue anymore and fell into a deep slumber.
The Lord Assistant Minister was extremely anxious, but Madam Yang had no idea what to do next.
“Old Master and Madam, Prince Zhan’s wedding procession has already reached the manor gates. It’s time to send the newlyweds onto the bridal sedan.” Butler Wang came over and urged.
The Lord Assistant Minister didn’t have any other ideas and urged Madam Yang to wake Nangong Waner up.
“Wan Er, don’t sleep anymore. Today is the most important day of your life, you can’t miss it no matter what. This marriage of yours, the Emperor gave you three orders, and Prince Zhan has been waiting for you for a year.
Madam Yang spoke sincerely, and in his heart, he loved Nangong Waner dearly.
“Ugh …” The unconscious Nangong Waner seemed to have heard his words, as he struggled to open his eyes, barely managing to sit still.
Right at this moment, Nangong Waner, who had just tried to stand up, was suddenly carried by someone. A familiar smell, a familiar feeling, made Nangong Waner blink his eyes, and vaguely saw Chu Xiuhan’s face that was as shocking as heaven. He looked at himself with a gentle smile, “It’s okay, go to sleep, Wan Er.”
Lord Assistant Minister and Madam Yang also did not realise when Prince Zhan had entered the house, and by the time they could react, Prince Zhan had already carried Nangong Waner and walked out.
Prince Zhan carried Nangong Waner and entered the bridal sedan chair. Nangong Waner had been sleeping in his arms the entire time, and had still… He was fast asleep.
“Get up the palanquin and return to the palace.” From the bridal sedan, the Prince Zhan’s voice faintly came out.
The crowd did not have the time to react. It did not seem like this was the process of marrying and marrying.
“Let’s go, let’s go.” Zi Ye hurried forward to urge the sedan bearers and the procession to escort the bride.
According to the status of the Prince Zhan, even the entire Tian Sheng could not match up to the ceremony and grand ceremony of the wedding. Thus, on the day of the wedding, it could be said that there were tens of thousands of people walking in empty streets. The citizens of the Shangjing went out to the streets to watch the wedding, and some stores were even closed.
Everyone’s trip was not in vain, the Prince Zhan’s wedding was indeed unique and had a very unique personality.
The Royal Consort was a bridal sedan that was carried by the Prince Zhan. When she arrived at the Duke’s Palace, the Prince Zhan carried her out of the bridal sedan, and her legs didn’t even touch the ground.
The empress dowager sat in a high seat, her face unsightly. A daughter of a small family really couldn’t do it.
He had really lost a lot of face for the imperial family.
The Prince Zhan didn’t care at all, as she hugged Nangong Waner and paid her respects to the heavens and earth. She was so angry that the empress dowager returned to the palace after finishing her ceremony. The emperor naturally came to join in on the commotion as well, but since the empress dowager was angry at him as well, the emperor had no choice but to accompany the empress dowager back to the palace in advance.
The Prince Zhan naturally did not mind at all.
It was rare for the Prince Zhan to agree to a circle of guests in a good mood. After drinking a few cups of wine, he lost all interest and called for Zi Ye to replace him and the two went back to the marriage chamber.
However, the moment he opened the door, Nangong Waner seemed to have sensed something and he crawled up from his bed with a “Teng” sound.
“Ah — —” Nangong Waner cried out in alarm.
