This conferred marriage may not be a big deal for the parties involved, but it is tantamount to setting off huge waves in Kyoto.
It even quickly overcame the 'eldest prince incident'.
After all, the eldest prince's incident broke out suddenly and his death was 'sudden'. In addition, no matter how he was of royal blood, the people did not dare to be too arrogant and point fingers.
"I never expected that just after the death of the eldest prince, the emperor would marry the goddess Wuhai who was also involved..."
"Isn't this unexpected? It's not that you don't know that our emperor is a wise and wise king who loves his people like a son."
"The fact that the emperor granted a marriage to Wuhai Goddess so quickly at this point in time illustrates this point, doesn't it?"
"Indeed, the emperor does not blame Wuhai Goddess for coming forward to report the eldest prince. This shows his guilt."
"But... Wuhai Goddess is an accomplice, right? Why..." Someone questioned in a low voice.
Someone immediately retorted unhappily, "Goddess Wuhai initially 'helped' the eldest prince, but that was something that was hard to tell! What's more, in the end, she took the initiative to tell the truth in time!"
"That's right," a group of people immediately complained, "no matter how powerful Wuhai Goddess is, how can she compete with the eldest prince when she comes to Cang Yu's territory!"
"You have no conscience when you say this. Have you forgotten the help Wuhai Goddess has given to us Cangyu? Have you forgotten how kind-hearted she is and how many of us she has saved!"
There was contempt all around, and the man no longer dared to question it.
Someone else said, "Then why is the marriage given to Mr. Su? Mr. Su is just a merchant after all..."
They thought that someone like the Wuhai Goddess, even if she was to marry Cang Yu, would have to become an imperial concubine or an imperial concubine to be compatible.
"You really don't understand amorous feelings. Can't you see the obvious interest Wuhai Goddess has in Mr. Su? Otherwise, with so many merchants participating in the Emperor's Competition and so many famous teas, why would Wuhai Goddess keep showing up again and again?
Just go to Su’s tea shop to taste tea?”
"I think this marriage is very good. Don't you think that Goddess Wuhai and Mr. Su are extremely compatible in appearance and temperament?"
"That's true. With the gift of marriage, Duan Ajiu, the witch, will no longer pester Mr. Su. She is also worthy!"
"The disappearance of the girl has nothing to do with her. You still call her a witch..."
"Ah! If it doesn't matter, is she not a witch? Is there anything she can do that can't be done by a witch? She is not even worthy of carrying the Wuhai Goddess's shoes."
For these ordinary people, the focus has gradually shifted to this kind of love affair between children.
The teahouse diagonally opposite the Sujia Public Tea Shop is still the old private room on the second floor.
How could the second prince, who had been warned repeatedly by the queen not to act rashly, sit still when he heard the news of the marriage.
At this moment, the second prince's eyes looked diagonally opposite to the Su family's tea shop with undisguised coldness and murderous intent.
The thin lips of the seductive man in red opposite him, under the mask, showed a faint smile, and the ends of his eyes swept over him.
"Why, you asked me out early in the morning, and we made the appointment at this place. Your Highness is not here just to see the scenery."
The second prince laughed gloomily, "Your Excellency, don't you think the scenery there is very good?"
In sight, Su Jingxing was walking towards the Su family tea shop, protected by a team of guards.
Even though such a big event happened last night and there was such a thing as a marriage today, Su Jingxing still kept his pace.
Like other people who participated in the emperor's selection, most of the time they came to their public tea shop on time and on time.
Duan Rong's eyes fell on Su Jingxing, whose dark eyes were smiling under the silver mask, but his emotions were unclear.
The second prince gritted his teeth, "I want him to die!"
Duan Rong chuckled meaningfully, "His death will not solve the problem."
With an irresistible temptation like a devil, "There is a better way to draw out the firepower than letting him die. Would you like to try it, Your Highness?"
The second prince's pupils shrank suddenly and he stared at him.
Duan Rong curled his lips indifferently and looked out again lazily.
Thinking of something, the second prince's heart started beating violently.
At the Su Family Tea Shop across the street, shortly after Su Jingxing entered the tea shop, another protagonist in today's topic, the Wuhai Goddess, also appeared!
Wuhai Goddess did not shy away from what happened last night, nor did she shy away from this sensitive period. She once again came to the Su family tea shop to drink tea openly and openly.
The people watching outside could vaguely see Su Jingxing and Wuhai Goddess talking freely while sipping tea on the second floor of the tea shop, but they could not hear what they were saying specifically.
When it was almost noon, a waiter served many exquisite side dishes and various after-dinner snacks and pastries in the tea shop.
Goddess Wuhai took one look and smiled, "Master Su prepared these foods, which seem to be more than enough for the two of us. And I see that Master Su eats lightly, so these foods are not to your taste."
She looked clearly towards the end of the long street outside, "It must be prepared for Miss Duan."
"It's just that Miss Duan stayed up late last night and may have overslept today, so she hasn't been seen yet. Or maybe she hasn't heard about the marriage between you and me?"
Su Jingxing raised his eyes and looked at her, Wuhai Goddess smiled calmly as usual, "Young Master Su is a businessman, so he naturally knows that he will not start early if there is no profit. When I cooperate with Young Master Su, I must also be able to guarantee my own safety."
'Li' is... Huh?"
Wuhai Goddess, who had not yet finished speaking, suddenly looked at a figure that was slowly wandering towards her. Although that person had changed his appearance, his figure was not modified.
Goddess Wuhai recognized it at a glance, "That's it. Then we can stop talking for the time being. It's not a bad idea to eat and talk together when Miss Duan comes."
Wuhai Goddess did not admit her mistake, it was Jiu'er who was walking slowly.
Jiuer's goal is also clear, Su's tea shop.
However, when she first passed by a teahouse diagonally across from Su's Tea Shop, a delicate window-supporting pole from upstairs fell exactly in front of her and at her feet.
Jiu'er looked up and saw the man in red clothes and silver mask sticking his head out.
The pair of passionate, almost demonic eyes under the mask curved into a charming arc towards her.
"Come up, I've prepared your favorite dishes for you."
Jiu'er looked at the Su's tea shop diagonally ahead, and then looked upstairs here.
The people upstairs here are already urging me, "What are you looking at? It will get cold later. It's noon, you're not hungry."
Jiu'er clicked her tongue in her heart and turned around to enter the teahouse.
Someone realized that the man upstairs just now was wearing a mask and red clothes, and he was lazily drunk and dreaming of life and death. Is that... Duan Rong?!!!
If it's Duan Rong, then the person who came up just now is... is that... a witch?!!
I always feel like this scene is very familiar and has happened many times.
The second prince didn't expect that Duan Rong would suddenly show up and call Jiu'er up.
"you……!"
Duan Rong looked at him lightly, "What?" (To be continued)
