The group that received the bride were all bragging, and did not encounter any problems the next few days. They safely arrived at the Prince Jing Manor.
However, the first to arrive was still just gossip.
Although the manor was full of guests, there was a bit of ridicule mixed in with the liveliness.
Just as Xi Mengyao was helped out of the sedan by the wedding nanny, she heard guests coming over and congratulated him. "Ah, this young miss Prime Minister's Mansion is truly amazing."
"I actually met the princess along the way. I heard that she even became sworn brothers with someone?"
"Not only that, I even managed to destroy that jewel-like bridal sedan."
"That's true. If I were to say it, I wouldn't be able to find such a grand wedding in the world."
It turned out that the incident that they had encountered along the way had been exaggerated and immediately spread to them.
Rather than congratulating them, it would be better to say that they were here to watch the show. Their voices weren't loud, each of them purposely waited for her to get closer before saying this.
When she stopped, she stopped.
After all, although there were rumors that this new wangfei didn't seem to be as ugly as the rumors, no one took her seriously in the end.
The more foolish ones only knew that this was a stain that the Emperor had purposely sent over to intimidate Song Chongjing. Whether it was the Emperor or the Prince Jing, they were all afraid that he didn't like her.
This was something that everyone could bully.
He might even be able to get some benefits after his words were taken away.
Most of them were just like the clouds in the sky, trying to curry favor with her. Some of them were arrogant and did not look down on her. Seeing that others were talking about her, they decided to follow the flow and say a few words.
This young miss had long been "famous". Apart from her ugliness, everyone knew how kind she was.
In this big day, even if she didn't feel good, she would still endure.
Xi Mengyao also saw through the dirty thoughts of this group of people, and walked in without saying a word. Previously, she did not even care about those people, she did not know what happened to them, and only waited until they reached the main hall before laughing coldly.
"They all say that rice is not used to feeding idle people, but now it seems that the Emperor was deceiving someone else."
"Princess!" What are you saying! " Hearing this, the maidservants and concubines who were mixed in with her broke out in a cold sweat.
Xi Mengyao didn't care about it at all. She just stood there, and even yawned, and said: "We should properly attend a wedding, and have so many mouths. It can be seen that you are used to grinding your teeth, that tongue cannot be controlled no matter where you go."
She spoke as if she were merely stating a fact.
However, when the surrounding people heard this, they couldn't hear anything.
Those who wanted to retort, upon seeing that no one was around, swallowed their food down. However, the reason why he used to guess that she, Xi Mengyao, would not get angry had now become his shackles.
In front of such a large crowd, the Prince was still waiting outside for guests. Right now, they were arguing with the bride in the main hall. It would be too embarrassing if word of this got out.
Because of these words, no one said anything. Since Xi Mengyao had something on her mind, he naturally did not tell them.
It was just that they had no interest in it and were brought here to pay their respects.
For some reason, this time, when she stepped foot on the auspicious hour to visit a hall, there was no one there. When she heard that it was Song Chongjing's mother, the grand imperial concubine, who was recuperating from illness in the southern palace, didn't come back.
This time, the emperor naturally went to Third Prince Palace and only sent someone to send him a congratulatory gift.
The witness, a three-way pavilion elder, was deaf and dizzy. He merely spoke a bunch of nonsense and then announced that he had succeeded in his ceremony.
The people who came to watch the show were all disinterested in the end. Whether they wanted to or not, in the end, they all started yawning at the same time.
Even Xi Mengyao couldn't help but yawn a few times.
When she had finished, she went back to her room and waited. According to etiquette, she should have waited for the groom to arrive before bowing and entering the bridal chamber.
However, she didn't have the mood to go today. When she reached her room, she slept with her head covered.
However, she didn't expect that no one would come and call her this time. She actually slept through the night just like that.
Only now did she realize that there seemed to be someone watching her from outside.
Xi Mengyao felt that it was strange, she looked curiously outside, and yawned as she walked out of the door to take a look. She saw a group of maids standing beside him. They were actually chatting and joking around him.
Looking at the decorations in their hands, it seemed that they were prepared to help her wash.
However, these maidservants did not seem to be in high spirits, "What? Why are you not up this late?"
"The prince didn't even touch her yesterday. She probably waited an entire night!"
"That's right. It's the wedding day. It's really bad luck to be here to serve her."
Looking at them, Xi Mengyao knew that they were probably unwilling. Helplessly, she stretched her arm.
"Since you're here to work, then do your best to keep your spirits up and take the salary. Don't tell me you're here to be lost in thought?"
Xi Mengyao said, yawned, and walked out.
The maids around them were startled when they heard the sound. When they saw that it was her, they immediately showed disdain in their eyes. They lazily said, "Since you are up, go wash up and dress up."
Seeing that, Xi Mengyao folded his hands, and leaned against the wall, looking at them: "What if I don't go?"
The servant girls looked at her in shock, not knowing what she meant, but Xi Mengyao had a lazy look, with a wave of her hand, she walked towards them: "I'm just like that, it's very comfortable."
Upon seeing this, the maidservants could not help but start discussing amongst themselves.
They had been discussing the matter from yesterday. After an entire night of fermentation, the news had already spread like wildfire.
Furthermore, Third Prince also lost his composure yesterday. It could even be said that he was furious, and didn't even care about his wedding anymore, directly rushing over to find Xi Mengyao to settle the score.
He didn't know if it was because he drank a few more cups at the wedding, but he was extremely presumptuous and ignored everyone who tried to stop him. Instead, he pointed at someone's nose and loudly cursed.
This incident had caused many people to be embarrassed. When the emperor heard this, he sent people over to pacify them.
Song Chongjing restrained himself from drinking too much last night.
Who knew that Song Qian would do this, even though he was being stingy, he scolded Song Chongjing directly in the face, but when he spoke, his words were slurred.
Before anyone could ask for the reason, the emperor's eunuch came over and took Song Qian away with his personal guards.
Before he left, Song Qian had even jumped and said, "Don't think that I would just let this go!"
Even when he was led out of the house, he had always been quarreling and watching silently from the side. He had always wondered what kind of enmity existed between the two of them.
