The prince stepped forward in three steps and asked in surprise: "But the princess is here?"
The eunuch gasped and said: "No, no, it was the regent who sent a message, asking His Royal Highness to wait patiently. The princess was delayed on the road for a while, and I'm afraid she won't arrive until tomorrow!"
"What!?" The prince shouted, almost jumping up. "How could the princess delay and miss the auspicious day? Today is the big day for the prince to get married. People all over the country are watching. How can you delay it just because you delay?"
No, I have to go and greet the princess in person!"
The prince, who had been waiting for a long time, was itching to wait. He was dreaming of having a night of love with the beautiful princess tonight. When he heard the news, it was like a bolt from the blue. His heart was filled with cold water, and he wanted to rush out angrily.
He is a majestic prince of a country, so noble. How could he not have a bride on the wedding day?
With that said, Prince Dongli was about to rush out, but he was stopped coldly by two guards as soon as he reached the door.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, the General has ordered that Your Highness please wait patiently in the palace. The princess will come to the city tomorrow and she will marry His Highness the Crown Prince immediately."
"Why tomorrow morning? How can we be hasty in this important matter of the prince's marriage? How did they do it? Why didn't they send the princess on time?" The prince was angry, but he still didn't dare to face the subordinates of the regent Wei Wuchen.
It was too presumptuous, and the tone was a bit calmer.
"The general is doing something, is His Highness the Crown Prince still suspicious? Anyway, we will get married sooner or later, so why should His Highness the Crown Prince be in a hurry?"
The two people looked at him coldly. It was obvious that in the Dongli Kingdom where Wei Wuchen was present, let alone the prince, they did not take it seriously even if the old emperor was sleeping inside.
Seeing that cold look, he felt angry and frightened in his heart. The prince wanted to say more, but the little eunuch next to him quickly tugged at his sleeves, looking useless.
"Your Highness, you should listen to the regent. Anyway, the princess will be sent sooner or later." The little eunuch murmured in a low voice.
"But the auspicious time determined by Qin Tianjian..." The prince's voice suddenly disappeared, and he froze on the spot, with a flash of green, red and black on his face, as colorful as a rainbow.
"Your Highness, this matter is not entirely decided by the General." The little prince sniffed and did not dare to speak too loudly.
"You bastard!" The prince, who had no idea what was going on in his mind, suddenly yelled angrily, "Wei Wuchen! You dare to deceive me and ignore your superiors. You are treasonous!"
"Your Highness, Your Highness, keep your voice down and don't make any noise!" The little eunuch hurriedly tried to stop him.
The prince was so angry that his eyes were red and he was furious. Unfortunately, under the cold gazes of the two masters outside the door, he soon did not dare to shout and fell to the ground, whimpering.
"Wei Wuchen, you are going too far!"
The old emperor on the dragon throne behind him was sleeping soundly. He didn't know what had happened. In the arms of the beauty, he was still dreaming sweetly.
outside the city
The escorting team from Nanyi Kingdom set up camp on the spot, made fires and cooked meals, and successfully escorted Princess Yingye. Dongli Kingdom rewarded the soldiers with a lot of good wine and meat to reward the soldiers who had worked hard on the journey.
Looking at the joyous and festive scene of the founding of the People's Republic of China, a group of soldiers didn't know whether they were worried or happy.
Their Princess Yingye, the beautiful and kind-hearted Princess Yingye, married a despicable and sinister villain like the Prince of Dongli Kingdom. This is hard for ordinary people to accept.
