Chapter Twenty-Eight: Substitution

The next day, almost five o'clock in the morning, Nangong Yi'er was woken up by a group of strange maids-in-law, and she had already finished washing before she was fully awake, and then she was pressed to sit on the dressing table, and Nangong Yier was only half awake.

It turned out that today was the day of her substitute marriage, looking at the pockmarked face in the mirror, Nangong Yier smiled in her heart, no matter how much makeup on this face, she will not become a beauty! I really admire these people who help her with makeup, one by one, they seem to be well-trained, and they turn a blind eye to her scary appearance! Concentration is really not ordinarily good.

So she sat obediently and watched those maids and wives help her work, and after almost two hours, when a red handkerchief was covered, Nangong Yi'er knew that she was finally done! Then the maids and women all retreated! Leave her alone, waiting for the so-called auspicious time,

At this time, Nangong Yi'er's stomach was already hungry and began to protest, but unfortunately there was nothing to eat in this room except tea, Nangong Yi'er wanted to cry without tears! After about a pillar of incense, the matchmaker and the maid Xiaodong came in and helped Nangong Yi'er out of the house and into the sedan chair.

When passing by Nangong Mansion, a lively sound of gongs and drums came, because today Nangong Mansion is marrying two daughters, and the mansion is also very lively! But for Nangong Yi'er, maybe leaving this Nangong Mansion may not be a good thing! I'm afraid that if I leave this cage, I will enter the next cage!

Outside the Nangong Mansion, there were two groom officials dressed in red wedding dresses. One is the prince with a very happy expression, and the other is Prince Xian with a very gloomy expression, and the two waited outside very tacitly without saying a word! Until the bride came out, the two bridegrooms took their ladies and walked towards the palace.

Nangong Yi'er sat on the sedan chair, lifted her hijab, and vaguely saw the groom outside in wedding clothes, and she was really curious about this virtuous prince. Xiao Dong, who was outside, saw her young lady's movements sharply, and hurriedly whispered: "Miss, quickly put down the hijab, it's unlucky."

Nangong Yi'er reluctantly put down her hijab, there are so many rules in this ancient world! But she cares more about her stomach, she is really hungry with her chest sticking to her back, and at this time there is a steamed bun for her to eat, she will feel that it is delicious in the world! But no one heard the call in her heart, so she could only endure it first.

The mighty welcoming procession walked towards the palace, and the people of Aoyu Kingdom stood on both sides of the roadside, everyone wanted to see the rumored first beautiful male and virtuous prince, and the future prince of Aoyu Kingdom, what does the prince look like?

The result naturally did not disappoint everyone, and this time it was really a feast for the eyes of the people! It wasn't until the welcoming procession had gone far that the people reluctantly dispersed.

The two teams of newcomers entered the palace and began to worship heaven and earth, the emperor and the queen sat above, and the lower hand sat Nangong Xu and his wife, Prince Xian also saw his father for the first time in so long, as if he had a thousand words, but he had to suppress it in his heart, and first put this kiss into a second talk. The emperor was also infected by this joyful atmosphere, and the whole person's personality seemed to be much more energetic.

Just when the two couples finished worshipping the hall and were about to take the bride back to their respective mansions, the abbot Nangong Xu suddenly knelt down and asked the emperor for his guilt: "The emperor forgives the sin, and the minister has committed a capital crime!" This sentence focused everyone's attention on Nangong Xu.

The emperor frowned and said, "Lord Guozhang, what crime have you committed?" ”

Nangong Xu said with a handful of tears and snot: "The emperor originally gave the fourth daughter of the minister to Prince Xian, but the night before the marriage, the fourth daughter of the minister suddenly had a high fever, and Lang Zhong couldn't see the cause of the disease. I thought it was an evil spirit, and then I invited a Taoist priest to come, he pinched his fingers and found that the four daughters of the minister were extremely weak, and if they married Prince Xian, they would be ruined! ”

The emperor looked at the queen and said, "Why didn't the queen tell me about this at that time!" ”

The queen said: "The concubines didn't bother with these ghosts and gods at the beginning, thinking that they were all nonsense!" I didn't expect this to happen! ”

The emperor could only shake his head helplessly, and said to Nangong Xu: "What about later? ”

Nangong Xu continued: "Because the Taoist priest said that my four daughters, if they insist on marrying, they will have to worry about their lives!" Xiaochen counted all the unmarried daughters' eight characters to the Taoist priest, and even counted the seventh daughter's life is the hardest one among them, Xiaochen saw that the fourth daughter was still in a high fever and coma, so he took it upon himself to let the seventh daughter marry instead! ”

Nangong Xu's remarks undoubtedly caused a thousand waves, and it was also touching. The ministers in the audience discussed a lot, and some ministers showed sympathetic looks. Prince Xian was naturally angry! Nangong Yi'er was also shocked into a cold sweat! The emperor's face is not much better!

Although this substitution is a capital crime, it is also excusable! Moreover, Nangong Xu's second daughter has become the crown princess, and the seventh daughter has also become the second princess! This is really a matter of discretion.

At this time, the queen suddenly said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, this lord also loves his daughter, and we as parents must understand the taste!" And looking at today's happy day, anyway, Qi Er's wife is also to spread the branches, and there is nothing wrong with being the daughter of Nangong Mansion! The emperor still shouldn't get angry and hurt his body. ”

The emperor looked at Prince Xian Ao Tianqi and said, "Qi'er, this matter is still up to you." ”

Ao Tianqi sneered in his heart, now that he has married the seventh lady of Nangong Mansion, the matter is a foregone conclusion! Could he still ruin this marriage, so it's strange that he won't be laughed at by the world! Now the emperor threw this problem to him, the purpose is to let him weigh whether reputation is important, or a woman is important!

Aotianqi naturally won't let himself endure for many years and ruin the image he has established! So he said to the emperor: "Father, since the son has married the seventh lady as the main concubine, why should he divorce his wife for this reason!" This is unreasonable. Please rest assured that the son will not treat the second princess badly. ”

When all the ministers in the audience heard this, they all showed expressions of appreciation to Prince Xian, but they didn't expect that this Prince Xian was really a broad-minded and reasonable person! The queen took this opportunity to continue to say to the emperor: "Your Majesty, since Qi'er has said so, look at this lord ...... country."

The emperor naturally understood what Ao Tianqi meant, so he said: "That's it, this matter is over!" Let my father-in-law issue another decree when the time comes! I'm also a little tired, let the children go back to the house and make trouble! ”

When Nangong Xu heard this, he kowtowed again and again to thank him. The crown prince and the queen showed that triumphant smile, and naturally did not escape Ao Tianqi's eyes, but at this moment, Ao Tianqi could only bite his mouth full of silver teeth and swallow it in his stomach. Nangong Yi'er was naturally greatly relieved!

Back at Prince Xian's mansion, the guests seemed to sense that the atmosphere was wrong, and they all retired after giving the gifts. In an hour or so, the wedding feast was over, and Prince Xian had time to visit her bride.

When Nangong Yi'er returned to Prince Xian's Mansion before, she was so hungry that she swept away the wine and food prepared by Xifang! After eating and drinking, she naturally wanted to sleep, but just as she was about to fall asleep, the door was suddenly kicked open! Nangong Yi'er was so frightened that she almost jumped up, and suddenly the sleepy insect ran away!

The person who came seemed to be very angry, and said indignantly: "Don't think that this king doesn't know what the hell you are doing! Since you have entered the palace of this virtuous prince, let this king stay well! If I find out what you are doing, this king will let you taste what life is better than death! Hum! After speaking, he glanced at the messy wine table with disdain, and finally slammed the door and left.

Nangong Yi'er was ugly by him, and it took half a beat to react, this man is a king, think about it, you know that it is her husband, Prince Junxian! Listening to his tone just now, Shicheng regarded her as a spy! Although I thought that it would be difficult to marry into the palace, it was really sad to encounter this kind of thing.

Nangong Yi'er could only tear off the red hijab by herself, shook her head, and thought to herself, this is also good, don't have sex with a man who has no feelings, which is exactly what she wants! Then he fell asleep.

Overnight, the news that the second princess was not favored became known!

The next day, Nangong Yi'er slept until three o'clock in the morning before getting up, and only the maid Xiaodong who came in to serve her was the bridal maid. Of course, Nangong Yi'er knew that she had been blacklisted by Prince Xian, and her treatment would naturally be much worse!

Xiao Dong said with a depressed expression: "Even if the young lady is a substitute for the marriage, the prince can't be like this!" Unexpectedly, the bride left alone on the wedding night, so how could the young lady stay in the palace after that! ”

Nangong Yi'er said: "Xiaodong, it's okay, your young lady can't wait for him to go!" I got goosebumps when I wanted to have sex with a strange man, and I was thinking about how to make him faint on the wedding night! You also know that your young lady's medical skills are not a problem. ”

Xiao Dong was so stunned that he couldn't speak, but after following her young lady for so long, he would understand the meaning of her words. Xiao Dong thought to himself, in fact, it makes sense to listen carefully to what Miss said, who likes to be with people he doesn't like! She will be like a young lady in the future, and she must be with the person she likes.

However, Xiao Dong was still a little unconvinced and said: "But Miss, you are a concubine after all!" Why doesn't there be a maid to serve, this prince is too deceitful! ”

Nangong Yi'er said: "It's a great luck that your young lady can save this life, why do you ask so much!" In the past, we didn't all spend time together in the bamboo grove garden, and now the environment is much better than before, and we should be content. ”

Xiao Dong pursed his lips, thinking in his heart, Miss is really optimistic! Now the identity of the young lady is much higher than before, how can it be comparable!

Although no one was sent to the courtyard of the second princess, Prince Xian's mansion did not treat her badly in terms of food and clothing, and with Xiaodong by her side, this day was not so boring.

This substitution was a voice of praise for Prince Xian, and a voice of criticism for his princess. Many people think that the first ugly girl marries the first beautiful man, which is a big joke. After all, this first ugly girl is also the concubine of Prince Xian, and this dog beating also depends on the owner! So many people don't dare to say it blatantly, they can only think secretly in their hearts.
