Chapter 31 Marriage on behalf of others, what is there to envy?
As the auspicious hour approaches, the sound of sky-shaking firecrackers and the sound of gongs and drums can be heard outside, which can be heard clearly even from a long distance away. Ji Yunkai's yard also becomes lively, and the girls who were originally surrounding Ji Lan's place
People, warblers and swallows, chirped and ran over to see the bride getting married.
At this time, Ji Yunkai had covered his head with a red hijab and was sitting in front of the wedding bed.
"Yunkai, congratulations, congratulations."
"Congratulations, congratulations."
…
At this time, no one without eyesight would seek trouble for Ji Yunkai, and no one would say inappropriate words. Ji Yunkai could not see the faces of those people through Xipa, but he could imagine the smiles on their faces.
, must be very "sincere".
After all, no lady of the world would be as direct as the original Ji Yunkai. If you like her, you will like her, and if you hate her, you will hate her. She never cares about the situation or the mood of others.
Even though Ji Yunkai didn't speak, the wedding room soon became lively, and not long after, something even more lively happened.
"It's incredible, it's incredible... Do you know who is here to welcome the bride today?" The girl who was watching the excitement in front seemed to have heard some news and ran in with a face of joy, and her tone was as excited as if she was getting married.
She is average.
"Who, who? Who? Who is coming to welcome the bride? We were still guessing yesterday. King Yanbei cannot welcome the bride in person, and he has no biological brothers. I wonder who will come to welcome the bride on his behalf.?"
"Yes, it's Xiao... Xiao..." The person who sent the message was so excited that he forgot his name in a hurry. This made the waiting ladies anxious: "Xiao what? It can't be Shiqing County."
Is the Lord coming to welcome you?"
"Princess Shiqing is dressed in men's clothing. She is suave and heroic. She is not feminine at all. If she comes to welcome the bride, although it is unreasonable, she will definitely look good."
A group of noble ladies immediately forgot Ji Yunkai's existence and started discussing happily without any concern for the bride-to-be's mood.
"It's a pity that King Yanbei was poisoned and fell into a coma. Otherwise... King Yanbei would definitely look good in his wedding clothes." King Yanbei Xiao Jiu'an has the most beautiful appearance in the world. I don't know how many women regard him as their lover and would fantasize about him.
One or two is normal.
"Don't think about it. The King of Yanbei said that he would never get married until the southern border was destroyed. If it hadn't been for his accident this time and the Yanbei Palace wanted to celebrate, he wouldn't be getting married now." A girl who knew about it said.
With a basin of cold water, everyone's joy faded a bit.
But there was another person who was still excited: "It's a pity not to see King Yanbei in his wedding clothes, but we can also feast our eyes on it today. Did you know? Today, the person who welcomes King Yanbei is Xiao Zirong, the young master of the Xiao family.
One of the young masters, Young Master Rong!"
The four major families of King Xiao of Fengqi have four eldest sons of similar age. All of them are handsome, talented, and graceful. The most important thing is that they are all unmarried, and these four are the famous fourth sons of Tianqi.
"It's actually Mr. Rong? My God, Mr. Rong hasn't been out for a long time. He didn't participate in the poetry meeting at the beginning of the year. I heard that he went to the border. I thought that Mr. Rong would never return to Beijing in the past few years."
"Ji Yunkai is so happy. Although the life and death of King Yanbei is unknown, the person who worships her is a Rong son. No one else can ask for her in their lifetime."
"Yes, yes..."
A group of little girls chattered and started praising Xiao Zirong. From her family background to her appearance, from her knowledge to her clothes, they all said something about her envy.
Ji Yunkai really wanted to say: What is there to envy in this world? She was the woman who almost married the emperor.
From a quasi-queen to Princess Yanbei who will be buried with her at some point, from the most beautiful woman in the apocalypse to an ugly girl who can scare children into tears, what is there to envy? She really doesn't understand the logic of these little girls, but
...If you don’t understand, just don’t understand. She has no desire to speak.
Although she kept telling herself not to care and to accept the situation if she couldn't change it, she couldn't help but become nervous as the auspicious moment approached.
After ten battles, she looks really delicate and soft and easy to push down. Life is so difficult in the Ji family. What should I do if she is bullied in the Yanbei Palace?
With her small arms and legs, she was no match for those rough guys. She might have been slapped to death before she even opened her mouth.
Also, is King Yanbei really about to die? If King Yanbei dies suddenly, what will she do? Will she really accept her fate and be buried with him?
But what can she do if she refuses to accept her fate and be buried with her? With her own strength, can she change the rules of Yanbei Palace? With her small arms and legs, can she escape from Yanbei Palace?
The more Ji Yunkai thought about it, the more worried she became. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she was jumping from a wolf's den to a tiger's den. But she had to jump even though she knew that Yanbei Palace was a tiger's den because she had no choice.
While Ji Yunkai was thinking wildly, the clan brother who came to carry her as a bride arrived. After Xi Niang said a few auspicious words, she tugged at the hem of her clothes and reminded her to stand up so that it would be easier for them to carry her.
Ji Yunkai was stunned for a moment before coming back to her senses. For a moment, her mind was completely blank and she had no idea what she had done. It wasn't until she was carried out of the hospital that she realized she was "married."
With her heart tightening and her nose sore, Ji Yunkai turned around and glanced at the small courtyard behind her. She couldn't see anything through Xipa, just as she couldn't see the way to go next, and the future was unclear.
There was no joy of getting married, only unspeakable melancholy and uneasiness. The sound of joy and the sound of firecrackers were endless, but Ji Yunkai could not hear anything. He only felt a buzzing in his ears, which was annoying.
Soon, Ji Yunkai was put down. The moment his feet landed on the ground, Ji Yunkai shivered suddenly and woke up instantly.
She was really confused. What was she confused about? What was she upset about?
The left and right are just blocked by soldiers, flooded by water and soil, and the worst is death!
Without giving Ji Yunkai much time to think, Xi Niang stepped forward and reminded her step by step to bow and say goodbye to her parents.
Xiao Zirong was only marrying on behalf of others, and Ji Yunkai was the only one who paid the courtesy. Everyone knew about the situation of King Yanbei, so of course no one would be stupid enough to say anything.
Soon, the ceremony was completed, Xi Niang supported Ji Yun and walked out. The wedding sedan of Yanbei Palace was outside.
At this time, Ji Yunkai had no intention of thinking. Her whole body was tense and she took every step carefully.
She was not sure whether someone was harming her today, but based on the principle of being cautious, Ji Yunkai did not dare to relax at all, and had no intention of peeking at Mr. Rong next to him who was praised to the heavens by those noble ladies.
Not long after, Ji Yunkai walked to the gate with the support of Xi Niang. Xi Niang reminded her in her ear that there was a threshold in front of her and she had to lift her feet.
But just when Ji Yunkai was about to lift her foot, her left leg seemed to be hit by something, and it suddenly went numb. Someone behind her seemed to have bumped into her again. Her center of gravity was unstable, and she fell forward uncontrollably...
