Everything that happened next seemed to be logical. After the death of the Princess Rui, King Rui was unable to forget about his princess wife. She specifically requested the Emperor to marry Qin Nuo, his older sister of the late princess consort, and marry her on the same day as Jing Shuyi.
However, due to the fact that both the main and side rooms entered the door at the same time, the Duke didn't go to the Qin Manor to personally escort the bride in like when he married Miss Qin Muxue. Instead, he followed lateral consort in sending the bride to the main entrance.
Some people even said that this young miss of the Qin family was the daughter of Prime Minister Qin. Even though everyone had never seen this Miss Qin before, there were occasionally people who saw her brother enter and leave the Qin Manor. Her appearance was extremely similar to Young Master Qin's. Young Master Qin was also very respectful towards this brother of his. He was clearly a blood related brother.
Fine! From then on, not only did she have a big brother, but she also had a big family that was forced to stay by her side — family!
Her personality really did dictate her fate. No matter what, she couldn't do something like leaving a hundred people behind and running away from the wedding! Maybe, at times, she was really not as brave as Qin Muxue.
Bidding farewell to his parents and parents, Qin Nuo got on the bridal sedan. The moment she sat in the sedan chair, she couldn't help but smile. Her ancient journey was truly marvelous! In less than two months, she had gotten married again! Or — marry the same person!
Even though he was already mentally prepared, still felt that his palm was ice-cold when he was sent to the bridal room. Then it was time for me to do it again, but it should be later.
"Empress, please take a rest. Your highness wants a banquet, so you can't come over until later. " The wedding lady's smiling voice came from outside the bridal veil.
This wedding lady was actually the same one from before!
"Aunty, please go to the outer room for tea. This will save our Empress from being too restrained." Ming Liu said with a coquettish smile, as she instructed again. Qing Luo, bring Aunt over there for a while. "
Qing Luo replied softly. Very quickly, there were the sound of rustling footsteps as she walked further and further away.
Qin Nuo gently lifted her red hair and looked outside. Actually, she didn't even need to look to know that this chilly room was precisely the main house that she saw when she was awoken by a person who was in a daze. Only this time, the new room, besides the big red double and red candle, is her favorite blue-gray.
"The Prince said that the Empress misses her sister and specifically told people to change this color." Ming Liu laughed and said.
Qin Nuo looked at Ming Liu speechlessly. She refused to believe that Ming Liu would not be able to recognize that she was the original Empress.
"Where's Peaches?" Qin Nuo asked.
"Peaches is going to rest." Ming Liu walked up and whispered in reply. "Your Highness didn't want the Empress to recognize the little girl who accompanied the Empress this time. It was the same person this time."
Qin Nuo did not say a word. No matter how many conjectures and discussions there were outside, all they knew was that Princess Rui had passed away due to illness and another Miss Qin had married to him. If she knew that she hadn't even exchanged the girl she married with for another one, it would be bizarre!
"Zhuo Tao has been sent to serve the concubine." Ming Liu said again. Currently, there were four of them,, Bi Tao and Qing Luo, serving the Empress, while the little lass was still here. I heard that there is only one big girl in concubine that can be married off to her, but there are quite a few little girls. If the prince said it was enough, the others would stay and serve the Empress. "Your highness really does put a lot of thought into it. The Empress mustn't let her personality make it difficult for you again."
"How much more do you know?" Qin Nuo glanced at Ming Liu.
"Not much!" Ming Liu thought about it seriously, and when she shook her head, her face showed that she was troubled. To be honest, she really wanted to know more, but no one told her. However, other than this servant and Ying He, no one else knew about it, not even Qing Luo! That day, when she heard that the Empress was gone, she cried like she was in tears. As for Zhuo Tao, the Prince must have thought that she was an inconvenience and sent her away. "
However, since Qing Luo was smart, she would be able to see through it in a few days.
Just as Qin Nuo was thinking randomly, Ming Liu covered her head with the red veil all of a sudden.
"The Prince is here!"
Qin Nuo bit her lips, both her hands unconsciously twisting together.
He did come early!
"Ming Liu, invite the wedding lady out." Qin Nuo said softly.
"Empress!" Ming Liu's voice was so low that it sounded like it was in a whisper. Niangniang, just bear with it! Don't ever go against the prince again! You must know that you are not the only one who has entered the Palace today! "
It wasn't easy for Qin Nuo to feel that she was about to be knocked unconscious when the wedding ladies all retreated. When she realized that Ling Yexuan had sent all the lass away, she opened her eyes wide and stepped back a little, looking at him warily.
"From now on, you no longer need to use the name of others to be my woman!"
Qin Nuo pursed her lips. Needless to say, her gentleness was indeed quite bewitching. Her burning gaze made her face turn red. But... She lifted her eyes and looked directly into his, trying to remain calm.
"Your Royal Highness, don't forget, today is the day Your Royal Highness welcomes the lateral consort into his house!" Ling Yexuan's hand strength was not high, Qin Nuo easily turned her head and said coldly.
Ling Yexuan's eyes flashed, but he was not angry, and stared at Qin Nuo with interest.
"Look into my eyes!" Ling Yexuan said softly, his voice hoarse and bewitching.
Qin Nuo lowered her eyes, not looking at Ling Yexuan. Such a beautiful demoness standing in front of him, and also acting so affectionate, how much effort did he need to put in to keep his heart calm when he looked him in the eye! Especially those eyes, which were so pretty.
She did not want to deliberately go against him. She just did not want to give her heart to someone who had no confidence!
She was also very clear that the more she resisted in this way, the more interested Ling Yexuan would be in her. Initially, she had other plans as well. She had once thought that she would fawn over him, making him feel that she wasn't up to much and slowly lose her enthusiasm.
However, after thinking it over on the palanquin, she still chose to be indifferent. At least this way, she could protect herself for the time being. And if she chose to pretend to welcome him, she might have to face many days where she shared a bed with him!
Even though they had already been intimate, she still couldn't get over it.
Ling Yexuan and Jing Shuyi had always been mutual lovers. As long as the two of them could be together, there was no need to worry about not sticking together in the future. Furthermore, the Green Tea Bitch would always use their own schemes, if she found out that Ling Yexuan's heart was not with her, she would definitely think of a way!
"I presume that Your Highness has promised the empress dowager more than two conditions!" Qin Nuo's voice became colder and colder, without a trace of warmth.
Ling Yexuan was startled.
Grandmother did not allow Qin Nuo to enter the door early, and insisted on having the Chief Consort s stand together. It was because she was dissatisfied with making her a Chief Consort. No matter what, in her grandmother's heart, she was a girl of unknown origins, even if she was Prime Minister Qin's adopted daughter! However, apart from entering the sect on the same day, he had never revealed any of her other conditions to anyone.
After being startled for a moment, Ling Yexuan started laughing, and the look in his eyes became more and more gentle and passionate.
"Tell me, what's your second condition?"
"You are not allowed to marry her yourself." "Qin Nuo said lightly. Without waiting for Ling Yexuan to speak, she continued. Third, on the night of the wedding, go to lateral consort. There should not be a fourth! "
Ling Yexuan did not speak, and his face slowly grew larger in front of Qin Nuo's eyes. Qin Nuo hurriedly moved back a little, and just as his lips were about to touch her cheek, she suddenly said: "Does Your Highness want to cut your own hand tomorrow morning to dye that white silk handkerchief red?"
Ling Yexuan's face changed, his left hand suddenly clenched. The wound on his palm had been very deep, and now it still had a scar. And she, who never seemed to notice his wound, said such words!
