The procession to welcome the bride was walking along the noisy streets. Although the Prince Regent's Palace was not far from the Luo Mansion, the procession to welcome the bride would not go back directly. Instead, they would go around the city and then return to the Prince Regent's Palace.
This is to tell everyone that from today on, the girl from the Luo family will be the princess of the Regent's Palace.
The onlookers marveled at the splendor of the wedding procession at the Prince Regent's Palace and recalled the scenes when the two families sent betrothal gifts and dowries.
I have to admit with all my heart: The Luo family and the Prince Regent's Palace are really a perfect match!
It's all for Miss Luo, oh no, it's the Princess Regent, no matter the cost.
On a tall building across the street from the wedding procession, there was an inconspicuous small window on the roof, and in front of the window stood a young man with a gloomy expression.
He was standing in front of the window looking at the wedding procession in the distance, his eyes full of evil and hatred.
"Stop looking." A soft female voice sounded behind him.
The voice didn't sound as clear and crisp as a young girl's oriole coming out of the valley. It was a little more hoarse and soft, but it was very gentle and affectionate. When hearing it, people can't help but feel a numb feeling in the ears.
.
This young man was none other than Xieyou Yun who had been hiding in Shangyong for quite some time.
I don’t know if he’s been having a bad life these days or if he’s disguised himself, but his appearance is very different from when he kidnapped Luo Mingxiang a few days ago. He looks thinner, his face is sallow, and his expression is becoming more sinister, and even his body shape seems different from before.
He was tall and straight, as if he was a terminally ill patient.
Even so, when he heard these three words, his sinister expression could not help but soften a bit, and he left the window obediently.
The room was a little dark, and a few figures could be seen behind a screen with a painting of mountains and rivers 20% off.
Just listen to the female voice continue: "After what happened last time, Xie Yan will definitely be on guard this time. Although there is still a street across from here, you may not attract their attention if you look at it for a long time."
The woman's words were clearly condemning Xieyun Yun's impulsive behavior last time, but to her, they sounded like gentle instructions from a mother.
Xie Oryun lowered his head in shame, "It's my fault."
The woman chuckled softly and said: "The matter is over. There is no use bringing it up again. Ayun, I'm relieved that you're fine."
Xie Oryun felt even more guilty, and the originally sinister and proud man almost pressed his face to his chest.
He did not step behind the screen, but stood there and said respectfully: "Are we just going to let Xie Yan get married so peacefully and smoothly without doing anything?"
The woman chuckled softly and said: "There is nothing I can do about what I want to do now. Besides...I am just a mother who is worried about her children traveling thousands of miles to visit. What else can I do? Xie Bian's nephew is getting married, which can be regarded as a wedding.
It's a happy event, so I have to ask Ah Rong to send me a congratulatory gift. Is Ah Rong here?"
Behind the screen, the man standing next to her whispered: "The Ninth Prince's people said that he received the wedding invitation from the Regent's Palace and went there early in the morning."
The room was quiet for a while, and then the woman sighed faintly, "Ah Rong is old. He has only been away from his mother for a long time, and he is already a little disobedient."
Just by listening to her voice, you can tell that she is not young anymore.
She didn't seem to care about her age, and she didn't imitate the young girls who deliberately made her voice sharper and crisper, nor did she pretend to be coquettish or coquettish.
But every word she spoke seemed to be of a romantic nature.
Her voice was gentle and low, as if she were a gentle mother, a gentle wife, a charming lover, and a devil whose every move was enough to enchant one's soul.
"That's all, go back and hand over your credentials." The woman said softly: "Don't let people think that we don't understand the rules. Also send over the gifts we prepared for King Dasheng Chu."
"Yes, ma'am."
The procession of welcoming the bride was getting closer and closer to the palace, but the atmosphere in the Prince Mu'an Palace, which was also not far from the Prince Regent's Palace, was so condensed that it almost turned to ice.
When the wedding procession passed by the street outside Prince Mu'an's palace, the band's high-pitched "Dragon and Phoenix Yin" passed through the huge palace, and even the courtyard of Prince Mu'an, who had now retreated to the backyard, could hear it clearly.
King Mu was lying on the bed listening to this voice. He was not happy that his son was getting married. Instead, he was so angry that he trembled all over and vomited a mouthful of blood on the spot.
Accompanying him on the bedside were Princess Mu and Concubine Fan, as well as Xie Heng and Mrs. Han.
Ordinarily, even if King Mu is seriously ill in bed, Xie Heng, as Xie Yan's eldest brother, is still qualified to attend the wedding banquet.
However, Prince Mu'an directly ordered Xie Heng and Han to stay in the palace to serve King Mu. Xie Heng was naturally very dissatisfied, but he also knew that Prince Mu'an would never dare to issue such an order that violated etiquette.
This can only be what Xie Yan meant.
His mother is right, they can't afford to offend Xie Yan now!
Xie Heng stood aside with his head lowered, his heart full of resentment.
"Your Majesty." Upon seeing this, Princess Mu quickly sat down by the bed. She was originally a pampered and delicate woman, but at this time she did not mind the filth and wanted to wipe the blood of King Mu herself.
However, King Mu didn't appreciate it. Although he was weak, he still pushed her as hard as he could, "You useless piece of trash! Get out of here!"
He didn't have much strength at this time, and even though he tried his best, he could only push Princess Mu slightly to the side.
"Your Majesty?" Princess Mu looked at her husband a little aggrievedly.
King Mu said coldly: "If you can't handle even a small matter, what's the use of you?"
Princess Mu whispered: "Your Majesty, your health is not good now, so why worry about it? Ah Jin is also a filial child, Your Majesty... Your Majesty, please stop being angry with Zhi Fei and take good care of your health, okay?"
"Get out!" King Mu was so angry that his face was shaking. If he just wanted to live out his old life in the yard, what else would he want her to do? Didn't he think she was an eyesore?
Faced with such a ruthless attitude from her husband, Princess Mu could not hold on no matter how infatuated she was.
She stood up staggeringly, then lowered her head to look at King Mu, who was lying on the bed panting.
King Mu did not look at her, but said to Concubine Fan who was standing next to her: "Come here and help me up."
Concubine Fan responded and quickly stepped forward to help him sit up.
I don’t know what happened, last night when King Mu was scolding Xie Yan in his daily routine, he suddenly couldn’t breathe and passed out.
When the doctor from the palace rushed to rescue him, they found that he was completely weak. It was difficult to get up, let alone get out of bed and move around.
King Mu was naturally not without suspicion, but several doctors in a row repeatedly stated that he had no signs of poisoning.
If I must say it, it was long-term depression and anger that led to the coma.
As for the general weakness, it was just a sequelae of being in coma for a longer period of time. Moreover, the coma that King Tai was in was not an ordinary lethargy. If he was not careful, he might never wake up again.
If you want to prolong your life, it is recommended that the king should cultivate his moral character and avoid anger.
After hearing these words, King Mu almost fainted from anger again.
Princess Mu stood by the bed and looked at King Mu who was sitting up with some difficulty with the help of Concubine Fan. There were still blood stains on his lips and on the clothes on his chest that had not been wiped off.
For some reason, Princess Mu couldn't help but gently stroke her jade-white fingertips.
There was a trace of joy in her heart that she was not stained with the blood just now, it was so dirty.
Looking at King Mu again, his once handsome and sparse face was already covered with wrinkles, and he was so thin and pale that only a skeleton was left. The noble demeanor of a young man from aristocratic family that once made people heartbroken has also disappeared in such an embarrassing environment.
.
A trace of confusion flashed in Princess Mu's eyes, and she stood there blankly looking at the old man in front of her.
Isn't this... just a good-for-nothing old man?
Looking down at her hands, which are still as white and beautiful as a girl, she... loves, why is he such a person?
Such a person...why doesn't he still love her?
Looking at the old man struggling on the bed, Princess Mu suddenly fell into infinite panic.
The man in front of her has changed from the romantic and handsome young master who once roamed the imperial city to a useless old man. What about her?
What has she done after so many years? What has she become like?
She has long since lost her natal family, her parents and relatives, what else does she have?
By the way...she also has a son.
Princess Mu suddenly calmed down and looked at King Mu with a strange light in her eyes.
With two soft pillows placed behind his back, King Mu couldn't sit up easily.
When he looked up, he saw Princess Mu still standing there blankly looking at him.
King Mu had seen Princess Mu like this countless times in the past twenty or thirty years, and she had long since dismissed her. He just said impatiently: "Why are you doing here if you haven't gone out yet?"
This time, Princess Mu did not complain or cry, or pray to stay and take care of him. Instead, she looked at him silently, turned around and left without saying a word.
"..."
Not only King Mu, but Concubine Fan and Xie Heng were also a little shocked.
Concubine Fan looked at Princess Mu's leaving figure, and somehow the bad feeling came to her heart again.
When Princess Mu walked out of King Mu's courtyard, she saw brother and sister Xie Chengyou and Shen Lingxiang standing in the courtyard not far away, not knowing what they were talking about. Just looking at them from a distance, you can see that the expressions of both of them are not good-looking.
Today's wedding at the Regent's Palace, King Mu and his wife only brought their children and no one from the eldest family.
Princess Mu strolled over, and brother and sister Xie Chengyou quickly turned sideways to greet her, "I've met the concubine before."
Although it was a courtesy, it was actually a bit casual.
It can be seen that neither brother nor sister takes her, Princess Mu, seriously.
Normally, Princess Mu wouldn't think about this, but now she didn't like these two people.
She ignored the two of them, but looked at Shen Lingxiang next to her and asked softly: "Who is she?"
Shen Lingxiang hurriedly stepped forward, bowed and said, "I am the eldest son's concubine, the Shen family."
"Are you Mrs. Shen?" Even though she didn't care about the matter, it was something related to Xie Yan and Xie Chengyou after all, and she still heard a few words from the nanny beside her.
Shen Lingxiang lowered his head and said, "That's right, Concubine Shen has met the concubine."
Princess Mu walked up to Shen Lingxiang and looked at Shen Lingxiang intently, as if she had forgotten Xie Chengyou and Xie Yuan who were still standing next to her.
After a long while, Princess Mu said with some boredom, "That's it." Then she took care of herself and left.
Xie Yuan, who was left behind, opened his eyes in shock, "Brother, she...what does she mean?"
Although Dafang has lost power now, Xie Yuan's attitude towards Princess Mu has not changed because she is not afraid of Princess Mu at all.
Just like back then, she knew that Luo Junyao's background was tougher than hers, but she still dared to bully Luo Junyao.
In her opinion, this kind of woman who has committed a crime deserves to be bullied by her.
Xie Chengyou was also a little surprised. He looked at Princess Mu's back and frowned: "Perhaps she is in a bad mood? After all...the Prince Regent's Palace today..."
Speaking of this, Xie Chengyou's mood became even worse, and he swallowed the next words stiffly.
Princess Mu has left such a deep impression on everyone for so many years that no one noticed her real changes at this moment.
