On the day of the wedding, when the sky was bright, Ji Yunkai was dragged out from under the blankets by two old servants.
Ji Yunkai was not someone who liked to cause trouble. If Madam Ji did not stir trouble for her, she would not take the initiative to find trouble.
"Yes, Miss." With Ji Yunkai's words, the old granny knew what to do, and quickly did Ji Yunkai's makeup.
Ji Yunkai opened her eyes, looked at the right side of her face which was somewhat brighter in the copper mirror and nodded: "Let's do it like this." She was still the same person, but now that she had makeup on her face, she looked completely different. She looked like an adult.
"Eldest Miss, the wedding dress is here." Just as the old granny was adding the finishing touches to Ji Yunkai's face, a maidservant came in with a wedding dress.
It had to be said that Madam Ji taught her servants well. Yesterday, the Ji Manor's servants were all lifeless and without joy, but today, they were brimming with enthusiasm. They were all in high spirits. Even the maidservant, who sent her the wedding dress, was the same.
"Yes."Ji Yunkai stood up, and had her maidservants change her into the new wedding dress.
It was unknown where Madam Ji had gone to find a wedding dress overnight. Not only did it fit her body, but it was also very beautiful. Her gracefulness was difficult to conceal, and, compared to yesterday's wedding dress, it was like heaven and earth.
Sure enough, there were some people who deserved to be beaten. If one did not fight, one would not know how powerful they were.
"Eldest Miss, this is the money that the Madam has given you." After Ji Yunkai changed into her wedding dress, a servant immediately brought over a box.
Ji Yunkai did not hold herself back. She opened the box and started to count the silver right in front of the servants.
Twenty-thousand taels of silver and a hundred taels of silver each. Although it looked like it was filled to the brim in the box, it actually was not that much silver.
"Madam is really 'generous'." In these past few years, the Yun family had given her a nominal sum of silver that was not even worth ten million taels, but Madam Ji had only given her twenty-thousand taels, and she had to threaten her for it, too. It could be said that Madam Ji was really a miser.
That was true. As a merchant's daughter, how generous could she be?
The maidservant lowered her head, and not a single word was spoken. However, her face still had a happy smile.
This was Ji Manor. Each and every one of them had different appearances, and each and every one of them had excellent acting skills that was over a hundred times better than the professionals.
Ji Yunkai did not mind the lack of silver, but, even so, she directly stuffed one into her sleeve and kept it.
She was poor, and it was better to keep the silver close to her body. If Prince Yanbei's Mansion was not satisfied with her, she could still rely on this little bit of silver to live.
The servants of Ji Manor acted as if they did not see anything. One by one, they did what they had to do and complied with their duties. Very quickly, they cleaned up Ji Yunkai, and at this time, the sky was already turning bright.
When the door opened, Ji Yunkai saw that the outside of the house was bright red, and it looked extremely festive.
Seeing this scene, no matter how much Ji Yunkai hated Madam Ji, she had to admit that her housekeeper was very good.
Not long after that, the sun rose in the east and scorched the sky red.
There were more madams and young misses who came to visit the Ji Manor, but these people did not come to find Ji Yunkai. Instead, they all holed up in Ji Lan's courtyard. The room where Ji Yunkai, the bride, was in was both cold and listless, and only a few people were there.
Ji Yunkai was not surprised at all though. The original owner's personality was stubborn, and it was even a little gloomy. Normally, she rarely went out, and basically did not have any so-called close friends. She also had only a few people willing to curry favor with her due to her status at the time. Furthermore, now she was no longer the future empress; instead, she was just a destined-to-die princess. Who would be so blind as to come knocking on her door?
The wedding itself was bleak and cheerless. If it were any other person, their heart would probably be crushed to death, but Ji Yunkai did not feel anything. She still ate and drank as usual. There was no blushing shyness at being a bride, nor did she feel nervous about being married into Prince Yanbei's Mansion.
Time passed, second by second. There were still fifteen minutes until the auspicious hour, so Imperial Advisor Ji sent someone to bring her the mask. At the same time, he also told her, "Be at ease!"
'Be quiet. Don't cause trouble for the Ji Family, and don't embarrass the Ji Family!'
No matter how deserted she was, it was bustling outside the Ji Manor. People came to congratulate her and the hall was filled with guests.
Ji Yunkai did not take Imperial Advisor Ji's silent warning seriously. Seeing the recovered orchid mask, Ji Yunkai heaved a sigh of relief.
She finally got it back. Otherwise, she would be uneasy for the rest of her life.
She was reluctant to use this mask, but she still had to use it today. If she did not hide her face, and a situation arises, who would she find if something happened to her?
Looking at the copper mirror, Ji Yunkai put on the mask. It had obviously been repaired, and the mask was no longer as comfortable as it was before. It felt a little rough to the touch, and Ji Yunkai had to adjust it for a long while, before it felt a little better.
"So beautiful!" The maidservants, who kept their heads down and pretended that they did not exist, were all stunned when they saw Ji Yunkai wearing a mask.
They had always known that Ji Yunkai was beautiful. If she was not, based on her personality alone, how could she ever be called the number one beauty in Revelation?
But, Ji Yunkai had never dressed up like this before in her life, and today, she was. The black spots on the right side of her face; however, completely destroyed her looks, such that, even the most devastatingly beautiful woman would not be able to look good against that disgusting black spots.
However, the moment Ji Yunkai put on the mask, she could no longer hide her beauty.
The orchid mask covered the black spots on her right cheek, releasing her beauty. At this moment, Ji Yunkai was even brighter than a pearl and more dazzling than a peony.
The thin and long phoenix line was lengthened and magnified by the mask. It was clear, pure, and had its own charm to it, causing one to be intoxicated with it.
Her small, red lips, when accentuated by the mask, were even more alluring. It caused one to be unable to resist the urge to kiss her.
The icy and aloof temperament, under the contrast of the gorgeous mask, made her appear mysterious and noble, causing one to want to discover her secrets.
This was a fascinating woman. As long as they met eyes with her, they would be attracted to her and sink into depravity.…
Ji Yunkai's master was indeed the person who understood her the best. This orchid mask was made specifically for her, and, after wearing it, it instantly increased her beauty and temperament.
This was the reason why the Emperor had crushed her mask the moment they met. This Ji Yunkai was too beautiful, and her beauty was like poison, captivating others.
If Ji Yunkai walked out like that, who would dare to say that she was ugly?
Who could ignore her beauty when she went out like this?
The title "Revelation's number one beauty" was not just for show, you know.
Looking at the unfathomable beauty in the copper mirror, Ji Yunkai smiled. She had always known that she was beautiful, but she had never imagined that she would be even more so when she dressed up.
All of a sudden, she was looking forward to someone playing tricks on her today. If the person playing tricks on her discovered that she did not have a sorrowful and dismally ugly face, but a beautiful and moving delicate one, what kind of expression would they have?
Ji Yunkai thought for a while, then suddenly laughed out loud. Her laughter was bright and beautiful, but it also had a hint of charm. The servants sneaked a glance at her, and then quickly lowered their heads. They all secretly shivered.
