zChapter 904 - Heng Heng, This Prince Came to Marry You! (2/2)

A phoenix coronet made entirely of a yellow crystal looked even more dazzling than if it were made of gold. In this era, the cost of crystal would be many times higher than the cost of gold. Even for normal wealthy families, they could not afford to buy crystal earrings. Even if it was the family of a government official, for a girl to have a piece of crystal jewelry was already something that gave them a lot of face. Back when Feng Yu Heng had just returned to the capital and received the betrothal gift from Xuan Tian Ming, this was the reason that Xiang Rong and An shi were so moved by her gift of pink crystal earrings.

Such a valuable thing was actually used to make a phoenix coronet by Xuan Tian Ming! At this very moment, everyone present stared at the coronet with wide eyes. Even Wang Chuan could not help but sigh: “His Highness is too magnanimous!”

Huang Quan even said: “It’s entirely made of yellow crystal. With this phoenix coronet, even the commoner’s brocade loses out!”

But even if it lost out, it was still one of the five treasures, Lan Zhou City’s people were completely dazed, especially the madams and young misses of the wealthy families. When they heard that the ninth prince had come to marry Imperial Daughter Ji An, they all ran out to watch the festivities. Now that they saw the ninth prince’s generosity, their mouths were opened wide in shock. They were unable to close their mouths for a long time.

Feng Yu Heng did not care too much about whether or not things were valuable. She had become accustomed to seeing things like crystal. She also knew Xuan Tian Ming’s personality. She had already prepared herself ahead of time. When this person acted, he either would not give anything or would give the best. But even if this was the case, an entire phoenix coronet made of yellow crystal nearly caused her to become dazed.

It was too beautiful! It truly was too beautiful! It also definitely was not in poor taste.

Normally speaking, something like a phoenix coronet would be either made of gold or silver, and there were not too many decorations. At most, there would be some engravings on it. The quality of the item would also be seen from this; however, who knew that there would be someone that dared to use crystal to have one made. Using yellow crystal to make a phoenix coronet truly was incomparable.

But… this thing should be quite heavy, right? Feng Yu Heng sighed internally. It was just her, as if it had been anyone else, they would have a hard time enduring the weight of this thing!

She was unable to stop the elation from appearing on her face, and the smile even reached the corners of her eyes. It could not even be wiped away. Wang Chuan and Huang Quan quickly reached out to receive the phoenix coronet and wedding dress, as Ban Zou reminded her from behind: “What are you staying frozen for. Go back and get changed!”

Only then did Feng Yu Heng react, quickly saying to Xuan Tian Ming: “Just wait for me a little longer. I will be back shortly.”

Xuan Tian Ming said: “No rush. We can definitely reach Sha Ping City before it gets dark. Things have already been prepared over there. It’s just waiting for your arrival.”

The young girl happily charged back into Hundred Herb Hall to get changed and put on makeup. Outside Hundred Herb Hall, the citizens of Lan Zhou City gathered around. It was a sea of people; however, it automatically opened up a path for the wedding procession to continue. It was very orderly.

Back on the first night that Xuan Tian Ming had arrived in the South and taken Sha Ping City, he had already become the god of war in the eyes of Lan Zhou’s citizens. Later on, he also took Jue Ping City in a single fight. The rumors about him being a god of war seemed to gain even more credibility. Adding on Feng Yu Heng’s Hundred Herb Hall also opening in Lan Zhou City to much fanfare, so many people with illnesses that could not be treated had been saved. So many people had bought her medical pills and tablets, and they found that they saw quick improvements to their situation. There were also so many poor people that had received medicine for free, and they did not need to endure the pain that stemmed from illness. Hearing that His Highness the ninth prince would be marrying Imperial Daughter Ji An on this day, aside from wanting to watch a spectacle, the people also came over to wish them well.

Who knew who started it, as someone shouted: “Everyone wishes Your Highness the ninth prince and Imperial Daughter Ji An a joyous wedding! We wish Your Highness and Imperial Daughter 100 years of harmony together!”

In an instant, this sort of shout rapidly spread, as everyone loudly wished them well. Everyone’s faces had genuine smiles, and there were even some that wiped away tears, feeling that they truly were too lucky to have been able to see this sort of event while they were alive.

Xuan Tian Ming was not stingy, as the attendants began throwing gift bundles that had been prepared beforehand. This caused the people to begin fighting for them.

These bundles had been planned meticulously. They looked like normal gift bundles, but they were all filled with different things, and some just gave silver. There were some that had nice jewelry, and there were some that contained little trinkets made of gold or silver. There were even some that contained small jade trinkets. In summary, the gift bundles were very innovative, and their cost was not low. People that were able to snatch them would be able to live off of the item inside the gift bundle for half a year.

There were quite a few gift bundles, as Xuan Tian Ming was not lacking for money. On this front, he had spent quite a bit of time. Of course, he made use of this to capture the hearts of Lan Zhou’s citizens, completely scattering the eighth prince’s memory from their minds.

The people snatched these gifts that came wave after wave, dropping from the sky. Finally, when they had nearly finished snatching everything, they heard an announcement from inside Hundred Herb Hall: “The bride has arrived!”
