Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan

Chapter 36: Reluctance and Welcoming the Bride



Chapter 36: Reluctance and Welcoming the Bride

There was a deafening sound of joy outside the door. Liu Youyou was going to get married. Because she was a concubine, the Fourth Prince did not condescend to go out of the palace to welcome her. Instead, the Ministry of Rites sent a court official as an envoy to welcome her. Liu Youyou had another reason to resent her as a concubine.

Liu Youyou was carried into the bridal sedan by a cousin from an unknown family. Because it was a royal wedding, there were not many "unsolemn" procedures. The sedan moved steadily. Liu Youyou, who was covered with a veil, could only hear the loud gongs and drums, firecrackers outside. In order to add to the festive atmosphere, the people of the Ulanara family scattered wedding money and candies everywhere. Passersby admired the style of Liu Youyou's wedding.

"This prince's marriage to a wife is so grand!" Passerby A exclaimed as he picked up a lot of wedding money and also picked up wedding candies for his children.

His companion, Passerby B, poked Passerby A in the side and reminded him, "It's Concubine Jin! Don't get it mixed up! We ordinary people don't dare to say that!"

"Got it!" Passerby A knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he shut his mouth and stopped talking, just concentrating on picking up the money.

I sighed in my heart, this concubine can bring so many things into the house, and the fourth prince married two at once, and he hasn't decided on a regular one yet! Royal marriages are really profitable. Why don't we pick a good day and burn incense to the Buddha, so that we can have such a fairy-like life in the next life!

Of course, passers-by don't know that the Fourth Prince married for political purposes, and he was wealthy. When Empress Xiaoyiren died, she basically left all her possessions to him. In addition, Emperor Kangxi was sympathetic and subsidized him a lot, so the Fourth Prince was indeed not short of money. And how could he use his wife's dowry for public use? If this was the case, the man's family would probably be ruined.

The capital city is such a small place, so the noise naturally spread to the Guaerjia mansion. Guaerjia Xuantong, who was removing her makeup under the lamp and preparing to go to bed, listened to the sound of suona coming from afar, and waited expressionlessly for the maid to remove her headdress. However, the maid knew that the princess was not prepared, and her hands began to tremble. Even though she was concentrating, she accidentally broke one of Guaerjia Xuantong's hair.

Guaerjia Xuantong didn't wait for the maid to beg for mercy, she slapped her in the face. In order to vent her anger, she slapped her very hard, and with her long nails, she scratched the maid's face until it was bloody. However, she didn't dare to cry out in pain, but kept kowtowing and begging for mercy.

Mrs. Guaerjia knew that her daughter would not be able to sleep well today, so she hurried over to comfort her. As soon as she entered the room, she saw this scene. She frowned and ordered the servants, "Why are you still letting people disturb the princess's rest? Hurry up and take her away!"

Two servants came in and dragged the maid out to deal with her. If she was sensible, she would take the silver and not pursue the matter any further; if she was not sensible, then the whole family should reunite at the mass grave!

Before leaving, Mrs. Guaerjia hugged Guaerjia Xuantong and told her, "This matter must be done quickly. The good days for the princess are these few days. If there are any rumors that shouldn't be there, don't blame me for being cruel!"

The two maids answered in unison, saying that they dared not cheat. The other maids and servants who were serving were also afraid in their hearts. Today, this maid was unlucky. She made a mistake when the princess was unhappy. If it was her turn in the future, she would not be able to get away with it.

Mrs. Guaerjia only thought that she was killing a chicken to scare the monkeys, so that these dowry girls who entered the Fourth Prince's mansion would not have any thoughts that they shouldn't have, not thinking about how to serve the princess, but only thinking about climbing up the social ladder. As for the maid, Guaerjia Xuantong was just venting her anger, and it was her blessing to be able to share the worries of her master.

Guaerjia Xuantong nestled in her mother's neck. Which girl didn't want to live in love with her husband until old age? If the princess from Ulanala Mansion entered the mansion before her, would she receive more preferential treatment from the Fourth Prince? If so, wouldn't she be a widow if she married in?

She asked Fu Jin with a choked voice: "Mother, if the Fourth Prince's heart is captured, how will my daughter live the rest of her life?"

Fu Jin patted her daughter's back, feeling that her heart was about to break. Her daughter was well-off and had a good family background, but she happened to meet a man with a higher status. Of course, she couldn't escape before the battle, so she could only encourage her daughter: "It's only three days, there are still many days to come! This short period of time can't determine anything. My son is born cute, and the Fourth Prince will definitely love him a lot. When the time comes, you will have a boy, what is there to be afraid of?"

Mother's words comforted Guaerjia Xuantong and gave her confidence. This Ulanara entered the mansion earlier only because her family background was better than hers. If it came to appearance, who was better? Young Mu Ai, she would always have a chance!

While the mother and daughter were chatting, they arrived at the door of the Fourth Prince's residence in Liu Youyou's bridal sedan. The Fourth Prince was waiting at the door in his wedding dress. At this time, there were few princes working, and the fighting between brothers was not obvious. Only the eldest prince was not convinced by the prince and kept trying to compete with him. But today was a good day for the Fourth Prince. Kangxi always liked brothers to be friendly and respectful, so the eldest prince, in order to show himself, did not cause trouble for the prince in such an occasion.

What about the prince? The fourth prince followed the prince's lead, so the prince naturally would not disrupt the show. So the princes talked and laughed, showing harmony. Until the noise came, until the bride came, everyone surrounded the fourth prince to welcome her.

The wedding sedan was lowered, but Liu Youyou could not get off the sedan and had to wait for the fourth prince to shoot three arrows. At this time, one of the young princes said with ill intention: "Fourth brother, why don't you just shoot three arrows in the air! Don't let it fail to draw the bow and hit the sedan!" This youngest prince was the youngest of the group of princes, and it was the youngest son of Concubine De - the fourteenth prince Yinzhen.

Hearing this, the Fourth Prince's face darkened, and he couldn't even keep his usual cold expression. But because he was his younger brother from the same father and mother, and it was also his big day, he could only grit his teeth and pretend he didn't hear it.

Seeing that the Fourth Prince didn't respond, Yinzhen wanted to say something. However, the Eighth Prince and the Thirteenth Prince covered his mouth and grabbed his waist, and pulled him to the back of the crowd. Who among the people present was not smart? Everyone pretended not to see or hear anything, and waited for the Fourth Prince to continue the ceremony.

I was wondering, why is this brother trying to sabotage me? A group of people laughed at the Fourth Prince for not being able to win over the hearts of his brothers, including the Ninth Prince and the Tenth Prince. Since the Fourth Prince went to the study, the relationship between the Fourth Prince and the Ninth Prince has been very bad because the Ninth Prince shaved the hair of his dog (it is impossible for the Fourth Prince to cut the Ninth Prince's hair for revenge, which is a curse on Kangxi, impossible). The Ninth Prince is used to being a tyrant, and he wants to go against the Fourth Prince. Seeing the Fourth Prince embarrassed in such an important occasion, he naturally gloats in his heart. The Tenth Prince and the Ninth Prince are angry at the same time.

There is another group of people who are very displeased with the Fourteenth Prince. If his two brothers are like this, then these outsiders on both sides will probably not be able to get into his heart. People nowadays value harmony, especially on a good day like a wedding. If you insist on jumping out to disgust people, everyone will think that the host family has offended people. But if you act like a mean person, how can you be a decent person?

There are all kinds of little thoughts, really all kinds of people.
