In fact, this wedding should have taken place several months earlier, but the Ministry of Rites submitted a memorial requesting an auspicious date to the retired emperor, and the reply they received was "wait a little longer."
This wait shattered the speculation of the civil and military officials in the court, who all thought that the marriage was aborted. After all, Tang was a divorced woman, so it was understandable that the emperor regretted it.
Some even speculated that the reason why the emperor married Tang was because he wanted to make Princess Haiyan's father legitimate.
Only a few insiders knew the truth: the bride was missing and the emperor could not complete his wedding alone.
All the disturbing rumors were finally dispelled by the red candles in the low-key yet luxurious palace.
Little did they know that many men who had proposed to Tang Chujun were heartbroken tonight.
Zheng Hanxu, the second son of Duke Dingguo, fell drunk under his own crabapple tree that night.
Prince Duyang Xiao Yongning was laughing at himself with his butler, "Thinking back then, I actually asked Xiao Yunde for an arranged marriage. Haha... I was so blind."
Xiao Yiyi heard it outside the door, jumped in, and smiled disapprovingly, "Anyway, father didn't really want to marry that woman, you just wanted to find a mother for me."
Prince Duyang looked at his daughter with a smirk on his face. After a moment of silence, he somehow blurted out the truth, "I thought so too."
Xiao Yiyi became interested and sat next to her father. "Why is it that dad is inexplicably in love with me again?"
Prince Duyang didn't know whether he was answering his daughter or sighing to himself, "But she is actually Mr. Chu Sheng."
It's very frustrating and a pity.
If he could have married Mr. Chu Sheng at that time, it would have greatly benefited his influence among the literati and would have helped him to educate his daughter better.
Besides, Tang Chujun's beauty is one in a million, and even young women find it difficult to achieve it.
To be honest, he felt quite regretful. In the end, he sighed, no chance, no destiny.
Prince Duyang suddenly remembered something, looked up at his daughter and said, "Yiyi, don't have any bad ideas in your head, trying to discredit the Queen Mother. She is not someone you can afford to offend. Those who have just offended her will be executed within three clans, and exiled outside three clans. Before you do something bad, weigh your father's head and your own head first to see if it hurts and whether it is enough to be chopped off."
He leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and had a headache. "I won't say anything else. You can do whatever you want."
Xiao Yiyi pouted, "Father, am I so bad in your eyes?"
"You know whether you are a bad person or not. There is no need for me to say more." Prince Duyang has been tortured by his daughter and has lost interest in life.
Capital. The tail of the ceremonial officer's shout of "The ceremony is over" was still echoing in the hall, and Xiao Yunde suddenly felt a warmth in his chest. The heart that had been hanging for many years finally fell to the ground.
He looked at Tang Chujun, who was wearing bright red makeup, and vaguely saw the crying chubby girl at the foot of the Baoguo Temple.
He once carried her on his back, step by step, for a total of ninety-nine steps.
Fate had tied them together with the softest red thread at that time, but later -
The red line is not broken, but people are scattered.
He went left, stepped into the bloody court, and waded through the bloody rain in front of the Golden Palace; she went right, fell into the brocade cage, and endured the cold moon in the deep house.
Tonight, the two of them raised their heads and drank the wedding wine. The wine slid down their throats and the taste of green plums rose on the tip of their tongues.
They each walked a very long and lonely road, but it turned out that all the partings were for the reunion at this moment.
Destiny never goes away.
If he didn't die, he would eventually run to her.
She, too, was not unkind to him.
Eunuch Qi and Nanny Zhong looked at each other, their old eyes wrinkled with laughter. They couldn't help but feel relieved that they finally drank the wedding wine.
