Chapter 132

C132 – Marriage

On the eighth of December, the Laba Festival, heavy snow fell from the sky, covering the entire Ye City in a silvery white color.

According to the old man in the mansion, he had never seen such heavy snow in the Ye City in his lifetime. This must be a good sign.

Tang Yue was dug out from his bed as soon as Yin Zhong arrived. He thought that he would not be able to sleep that night, but two days ago, he was so busy that he fainted and fell asleep.

At this moment, he narrowed his hazy eyes and allowed the maid to change into wedding clothes for him. From inside to outside, it was a bright red color, layered on top of each other, complicated and solemn.

“Young master, quickly wash your face. State Protector’s Wife will be here soon.”

“So early?” Although Tang Yue knew that marriage was very troublesome, he did not expect it to be so troublesome. Fortunately, there were many family members, so he did not need to worry about most things. Instead, he made the servants so busy that they felt dizzy.

However, everyone was also very busy. The only wedding in the manor was young master. The old duke waved his hand and rewarded each person with five taels of silver. This was their income for several years.

After washing his face, Tang Yue first drank a bowl of hot porridge and ate a few pieces of cake. Marquis’s Wife had told the bride not to eat anything before the sedan chair. Tang Yue only replied to her: “I don’t need to sit in the sedan, and I’m not a bride. No one stipulated that the groom can’t eat anything, right?”

Yes, Tang Yue had done mental constructions for a few days. He only thought that he was getting married today and not getting married. This at least made him feel more comforted in his heart.

Marquis’s Wife thought that he was about to become Crown Princess and that his position would leap up. She could not afford to offend him, so she just turned a blind eye and did not care.

She could not help but whisper a few words to the mama she trusted. This country child grew up so rude!

The nuns had more or less received Tang Yue’s favor, but they did not dare to refute their master, so they lowered their heads and pretended not to hear him. Poor Zhao Shi did not know that her mortal enemies had been secretly conquered by Tang Yue.

State Protector’s Wife came to comb Tang Yue’s hair. Normally, this was a process that only brides had. However, it was the first time that a noble family married a man. There were no old rules. Some rules were based on the standard of marrying a daughter.

“One comb to the end, two combs of white hair and eyebrows, three combs of children and grandchildren all over the ground...” State Protector’s Wife immediately shut her mouth after saying this. She secretly spat on herself. How can she tell a man that children and grandchildren are all over the ground? Wouldn’t that be the same as letting Crown Prince Zhao have more concubines?

This was not auspicious at all!

Although Tang Yue felt awkward hearing this, he did not feel insulted. When he saw State Protector’s Wife stop, he thought that the ceremony had ended.

“Thank you Madam for coming to help today!” Tang Yue thanked her.

State Protector’s Wife could not continue after being interrupted. She did not want to say anything wrong. “You can just call me auntie. It should be auntie thanking you for taking care of Sanlang. If not for you, this child might have done something wrong.”

“Auntie is serious.” Tang Yue took the opportunity to acknowledge the family.

“Apart from that, the decoction you prescribed for State Duke is very good. His condition has been much better recently and he hasn’t come to thank you. He took this opportunity to help. He even robbed Madam State Duke Ann of her business,” State Duke said.

Tang Yue looked at State Protector’s Wife’s smiling face in the mirror. She was generous and graceful. She was a rare gentle woman. He really did not know what State Protector was picky about.

Tang Yue unconsciously stopped and looked at him from afar.

At this moment, both of them felt a surge of tenderness in their hearts. This was the day of their wedding. From now on, they would eat and live together. They would live and fight together. They would no longer be two separate individuals.

Crown Prince Zhao revealed a smile. Because of this smile, his entire face became even more handsome. It made the maids and husbands around him blush.

Someone murmured in a low voice. “His Highness is really a handsome man!”

“His Highness is the leader of the Four Beauties, he should be like this!”

“If I can obtain this husband, I will die without regret!”

“Dream on! With His Highness’s status, not to mention being a husband, even serving him in close quarters would be an extravagant hope.”

“That’s true. I heard that even young master’s four personal servants couldn’t marry him. I don’t think young master would let any women get close to His Highness.”

“Nonsense! I heard that His Highness personally instructed that the Crown Prince’s Palace does not accept any maids. He told young master not to bring any maids to serve him.”

“Is this true? Then His Highness will also have concubines in the future?” He couldn’t just send a servant to serve his wife, could he?

“What a jinx. Our young master just married, why did you mention concubines? How unlucky!”

“Bah... I didn’t say anything...”

Crown Prince Zhao walked towards Tang Yue step by step. Every step he took was extremely careful and steady. The people around him had already submitted to him.

If Tang Yue had a generous and steady temperament, then Crown Prince Zhao was the halo of nobility. His aura was powerful, and no one could stop him.

He walked in front of Tang Yue, reached out his right hand, and stared at Tang Yue without saying a word.

Tang Yue understood what he meant. Normally, he would feel embarrassed in front of so many people, but today was different. He could openly show his love to this person.

And from now on, they would not be afraid of anyone looking at them. They would walk on the streets holding hands.

In his previous life, his wish was to find a suitable partner and live under the sun, calmly living in the eyes of the world.

Unfortunately, this wish was only the first step. He did not expect that he would be able to realize this wish after traversing two thousand years of time and space.

Tang Yue put his hand on Crown Prince Zhao’s hand. Crown Prince Zhao’s palm was full of calluses, which gave him a sense of security. He smiled and asked, “Is Your Highness happy?”

Crown Prince Zhao held his hand tightly to his chest and answered affirmatively, “I can feel it myself.”

A rapid and steady heartbeat came from under his palm. Tang Yue grinned. His ordinary face was shining because of this smile.
