C139 (1/2)

The grand marriage of the princes was a celebration of the Heavenly Flames Mountain.

The main street of the city was bustling with noise and excitement.

However, the room was completely silent. The pretty girl had already prepared everything for Litchi Bay. She wore a phoenix coronet and ceremonial robes. Her normally gentle and graceful appearance was now straight and straight. Her eyebrows were raised slightly, revealing her enchanting appearance.

Gu Liuyan pinched his fingertips and smiled at her: ”It's a pity that your father and mother can't come to Sky Flame.”

”I knew this would happen.” Litchi gently smiled, and his fingertips were twisted with nervousness.

She originally didn't like her family, but now she couldn't even use her father's name, so she could only leave behind the name Litchi Bay. If it wasn't for the fact that Consort Xian had secretly groomed her, her family wouldn't have been able to provide any help.

Gu Liuyan knew that she had said the wrong thing, so she could only embarrassedly change the topic. She wished her happiness and comforted her that this was only a ceremony. Even if there were some minor details, no one would care.

Litchi Bay only chuckled, and let the old woman beside her put on the red cloth, and said in a clear voice: ”The groom is already at the door! The bride is up! ”

She watched as the new maidservant led her out of Litchi Bay.

Gu Daiyan did not stay for long and left through the back door. She took the carriage to the fourth prince's new residence and hid in the crowd. She could not help but hear their gossip.

”How could this Crown Princess Jing be favoured? I'm actually quite pleased with myself from seeing that concubine of hers.”

”If I were also the Prime Minister's daughter and the descendant of the Yun clan, I would naturally be able to marry Prince Jing.”

The two young ladies of the Shangguan family didn't recognize her, but they did allow her to watch the two newbies enter the hall. Duan Chengyu and Litchi Bay held the red silk in their hands and kneeled in front of the empty main seat, and on the table was the statue of the God that Navy Tide worshipped. They didn't bow to heaven and earth nor to husband and wife, and only held the red silk before the gods and made oaths.

All along the way, when Duan Chengyu brought Lai Wan away, Gu Danyan also headed to the banquet at the mansion. However, her cold had not yet recovered and she had once again caused a ruckus with them yesterday, causing the cold to become even heavier, so she could only bear with it and not cough.

Qing Dai, who was at the side, brought out a cup of warm water and said, ”They all said that we shouldn't have stayed up late yesterday.”

”It's fine.” Gu Danyan took a sip of warm water and put it back on the table before returning to where she should be.

At the side of the table, Su Yu Wan was leaning against Duan Ling Tian's chest as she expressed her envy. Duan Cheng Xuan's gaze towards Su Yu Wan was so gentle that she was able to squeeze water out of her eyes, but in the end, Duan Cheng Xuan still gave her some face, leaving her seat on the left.

The crown prince and second prince had only sent gifts and there was only Duan Chengxuan and the third prince Duan Chengrui at the table. She sat down lightly with Chang Yiqin, whom he had met before, by his side. She wasn't too pleased with himself, it seemed as if Duan Chengrui was discussing something with Yue Qing before she turned around to look at Mingyan and asked, ”Aren't you jealous, Imperial Consort Jing?”

”Not eating.” Gu Danyan could only resist the itchiness in her throat. Yin Gou, who was beside her, brought a bowl of hot broth noodles from somewhere in front of her. Two eggs were sprinkled with green onions. Just by looking at it, one could tell it tasted good.

She did not care about the fact that Su Yu Wan kept talking about Big Brother Xuan, nor did she care about Chang Yiqin's expression of shock and disgust.

She just didn't eat breakfast. She was very hungry.

After a short while, Duan Chengyu walked to their table and toasted one table at a time. When he arrived at their table, his eyes were focused on Gu Daiyan, who was alone, as he respectfully toasted the other: ”Thank you for your blessings, Imperial Uncle and Princess Wangfei.”
