Another period of time passed. Prince Yu had just accepted a second wife. As his sons, the princes had no choice but to come to the mansion to celebrate.
This time, Shang Yiqing was determined not to be left behind. On the contrary, she woke up early to pack up and followed Fang Zinan to Prince Yu's Mansion.
Prince Yu's estate was decorated with lanterns and decorations, brimming with a sense of joy.
All the officials of the imperial court had come to congratulate him. The entire Residence of Prince Yu was filled with people, all of them high-ranking officials. Even though the emperor hadn't personally come, he had also sent his steward, Eunuch Mi, to personally deliver the congratulatory gift.
"Congratulations to Father!" He had no objection to his father marrying his concubine. After all, his father was too old, and even his sons could not always stay by his side. Although his father had a side wife, his father's relationship with the side concubine was limited, and the two of them did not have a good relationship. Now that his father was willing to marry him, it was only because he wanted to find an old companion. As his son, he naturally had to show his filial piety.
Shang Yiqing bowed as well. She was curious as to why Prince Yu would want to marry another concubine at his age. After all, he was already so old, and yet he still wanted to take a wife. She was disdainful. But as a daughter-in-law, how could she express her opinion? She was still curious about this side concubine. She didn't know how she looked like, but she really looked forward to it!
They really did arrive early today, but the other princes still had not arrived. This made her feel quite proud. Humph! Normally, we would be the last to arrive at the mansion. But on such an important day, these princes didn't even show their faces. I really don't know what these princes are thinking. Shang Yiqing was pleased with herself as she thought of this.
It was almost time for them to pay their respects when they saw the listless arrival of the princes. The royal consorts, on the other hand, were adorned with gorgeous makeup and beaded gems all over their bodies. Each and every one of them was adorably dressed up. Shang Yiqing was speechless when she saw this. Fortunately, there were many guests today, and the princesses were busy greeting the noble madams. She actually didn't cause any trouble for her, but instead heaved a sigh of relief. She had thought that the arrival of the royal concubines would lead to a war of words, which had saved her a lot of time and thought.
When the auspicious hour arrived, Prince Yu's new consort leisurely walked out from the crowd, looking exceptionally slim under his bright red dress. Shang Yiqing looked at his casually and felt that this consort must be very beautiful. Just looking at her figure made people feel that she was a beauty, but she still looked forward to the face behind the red veil. He really didn't know what kind of face was behind the red veil.
After the ceremony, the moment Prince Yu lifted up his red cap, exclamations of admiration came from all around. Shang Yiqing was a woman, but she was also shocked by the beauty of the concubine. Her eyebrows were eyebrows, her eyes were eyes, and her gaze was terrifying. When she looked at someone, she looked like a legendary enchantress, but she was actually serious and didn't have any special charm. Shang Yiqing looked like a lady walking out of a painting from the crowd. When she saw such a woman, one word rose up from the bottom of her heart, and it was: ecstasy! This kind of girl was a lively and fragrant painting standing there. Between her brows, there was a sense of elegance and elegance. "She really did not expect the secondary wife to be such a beauty.
Some of the people in the crowd began to loudly praise her, "The secondary wife is so beautiful! Prince Yu is truly fortunate! "
Some people were so shocked that their mouths were wide open and their jaws dropped. They didn't know what to say.
The princesses and noble ladies also revealed looks of surprise. Some people looked at such a beautiful woman and felt ashamed, their faces could not help but darken. Others looked at such a beautiful woman and felt unwilling to accept it, raising their head even more, as if they wanted to fight with the bride. There were even people who looked at the beautiful concubine with admiration in their eyes.
If they had seen such a woman on the street, some of the scholars would have said something unpleasant, but today was the day of Prince Yu's wedding. None of the high officials in the court wanted to curry favor with his, so instead they praised his repeatedly. When these words reached Prince Yu's ears, his whole face was filled with excitement and pride. He couldn't help but feel elated, as if he were proudly saying to everyone, "You see, the secondary wife I married today is a beauty, don't you envy her?" Are you jealous?
Fang Zinan turned his head and squeezed Shang Yiqing's hand, saying in a low voice: "Now we are going to serve tea to the concubine, don't just keep watching."
Since he was the legitimate imperial concubine, his status was different from his concubines. As her sons, the brothers came to offer tea. When Fang Zinan saw Shang Yiqing standing there in a daze, he couldn't help but greet her. Before Shang Yiqing could react, Fang Zinan had already dragged her to kneel down and offer his some tea, "I wish you great happiness, father. May you live thousands of years, mother thousands thousands of years." After saying that, he and Shang Yiqing each took a cup of tea and placed it in the hands of Prince Yu and the secondary concubine.
"Prince Rong understands." The matter of him marrying a secondary wife had aroused the displeasure of the other sons, and the rest of them all felt that Prince Yu was already old enough to take her in as his concubine. They didn't expect that he would have to marry her as his concubine, and even called her 'Empress' instead, just based on this fact alone, the princes led by King Ning were already dissatisfied. If they weren't impatient, they really wouldn't have come today, which was why they had delayed their arrival so close to the auspicious hour. Now that they needed a few princes to go forward and serve them tea, those princes still stood far away and refused to move forward. Only Prince Rong didn't care about all this. He only wanted his father to be happy, so he was the first to offer his tea. Prince Yu looked at Prince Rong, naturally feeling very happy.
When Ning Wang saw that Prince Rong was the first to go up to offer her tea, her expression turned ugly. She had no choice but to walk up to the imperial concubine and offer her the tea. The instant the side concubine caught the teacup, Ning Wang seemed to have been shocked. He stared blankly at the side concubine, attracted by her beauty and unable to avoid it!
This smile was incredibly beautiful, not to mention Ning Wang, everyone present was shocked by this smile until they couldn't speak. It was already beautiful enough if the secondary wife wasn't smiling, but her smile was even more charming. It was so flirtatious that people couldn't bear to look away!
It wasn't until Princess Ning had secretly pinched Ning Wang that he finally stood up, but he was still reluctant to take his eyes off her.
