Chapter 1522 Wang Mingxuan Gets Married
Regardless of what she was thinking, Yin Wenxiu still stood up to leave and left the palace with Bai Qingqing.
After they left, Shangguan Ruoli looked at Ji Minmin and asked, "What do you think of Yin Wenxiu?"
"She's just a scheming woman who tries to reach the top by looking down on others." Ji Minmin smiled helplessly.
Although she comes from a hidden family, she is not a fool, okay?
Why does this future mother-in-law always treat her as a child who doesn't understand anything?
Although Ji's secret realm is isolated from the rest of the world, the clan is not a pure land. There are no less open and covert struggles than the outside world. Even because the clan members practice martial arts and refine medicine, the fights are more bloody and cruel.
Shangguan Ruoli was relieved to see that Ji Minmin was not really inexperienced in worldly affairs. Not only was this girl not stupid, but she was also quite shrewd, and she was very good at concealing her emotions.
In fact, it's not that Ji Minmin can hide her emotions, it's that she has been cultivating immortality since she was a child, and her mood is high enough that she doesn't care about unimportant people and things at all.
In a blink of an eye, the day came for Wang Mingxuan and Xia Baishao to get married.
Wang Feng was a great general with great military exploits, and he was once a slave of Dongming Ziyu's mansion. Bai Qingqing was Shangguan Ruoli's handkerchief and Ling Yao's master.
Wang Mingxuan is also a young general, fighting side by side with the emperor and the three princes, sharing life and death.
Therefore, Wang Mingxuan's marriage caused a sensation throughout the capital, and even officials and gentry around the capital sent congratulatory gifts to everyone who could get involved.
Wang Feng was not stingy either. He set up flowing water mats for three days in the open space at the city gate to give back to the people.
The wedding was also very grand, with red makeup and a whole city celebrating.
Dongming Ziyu's family all dressed up to attend, which gave Wang Feng and Bai Qingqing a lot of face and made the scene lively.
However, the guests always felt uncomfortable in the presence of such important figures. Dongming Ziyu, Shangguan Ruoli and Jingyu finished attending the wedding, nodded at the banquet, and returned to the palace.
The ladies were all paying attention to what was going on at the male guests' table. They were a little disappointed to know that the emperor had returned to the palace, but Jing Xi and Jing Yang were still there, and they were all ready to make a move.
Even if you can't be a queen, being a princess is fine.
Jing Xi and Jing Yang are both brothers from the same mother as the emperor. The emperor is very friendly to them and entrusts them with important responsibilities. Being a princess is also the highest honor.
Yin Wenxiu's little maid returned to her seat and whispered a few words in Yin Wenxiu's ear.
Yin Wenxiu nodded slightly, then wiped her lips with a handkerchief.
Meng Wanzhou next to her put down her chopsticks and asked: "Are you full?"
Her grandfather was the former minister of the Ministry of War and has passed away. Her father was a fifth-rank young minister of Honglu Temple. He had little real power and his status was incomparable to his original status.
This can be seen from the attitude of Yin Wenxiu and others towards her.
Yin Wenxiu smiled lightly and nodded, "I want to visit the garden in this mansion. I heard that it was designed by the emperor. The second prince and the third prince are also visiting the garden. Do you want to go together?"
Meng Wanzhou's eyes were dim. She had always been in love with Xi Jingxi, but since her grandfather passed away, her status was not as good as before. She was no longer qualified to be his main concubine, and she was not willing to be a side concubine or concubine.
She would rather find a well-matched family to be a wife than a concubine.
Her parents thought so too, and had already found a family for her. He was the son of his grandfather's protégé. He would come to Beijing next year to attend the Spring Festival. Regardless of whether he was a high school student or not, they would propose marriage to them.
"I won't go. I'm wearing a little thin clothes today and I'm afraid I'll get cold."
A flash of disdain flashed in Yin Wenxiu's eyes, but she held her arm and said, "It doesn't matter. I have a spare cloak with me. I'll lend it to you, and you can just walk around with me."
This idiot has liked the second prince since he was a child, but the second prince is very bored with her. Little does he know that the second prince likes her, and she is just a toad who wants to eat swan meat.
Jing Xi never thought that he just said a few words to her for the sake of being related to each other and didn't want to make her look too bad, so she had such an illusion.
Meng Wanzhou knew that he could no longer compete with Jing Xi, so he had given up his thoughts and allowed her to persuade him like this, but his thoughts changed again.
After all, it was the infatuated love at the beginning of love, and it was once passionate and crazy. How can you just forget it?
It doesn't hurt to take a look at it from a distance.
So, after the banquet was over, the two of them invited some little sisters who were playing together to visit the garden in Wang Feng's mansion.
This house was given by the emperor. When the courtyard was being built, the drawings were shown to Jing Yu. First, he knew some fortune and feng shui, and second, his dragon energy would bring blessings to his family.
The scenery in the park is very exquisite. A layman would not be able to tell anything about it, but they just think it looks very comfortable.
It is the late autumn season, with red and yellow fallen leaves flying. All kinds of chrysanthemums are in full bloom, including many rare varieties.
A group of noble ladies and their maids were commenting on the chrysanthemums on the roadside while touring the scenery in the garden. They walked and stopped until they came to a lake.
There is a large rockery beside the lake, with jagged rocks and steps winding up. An octagonal viewing pavilion is built on the top of the mountain.
In the pavilion, there were several familiar figures, none other than Jing Xi, Jing Yang and a few guards.
Yin Wenxiu's eyes flashed slightly, and she pointed at the fish playing in the lake and said, "Look, that fish is so strange, it's actually black."
The fish are for the owners to enjoy. They are so bustling in the water that it is difficult to distinguish them clearly.
Meng Wanzhou had a lively personality and could not see clearly. She took two steps forward, stretched her neck and looked in, "Where is it? Where is it?"
Someone pointed into the water and said: "Right there, there are two black fish, bigger than the other red ones, and they look very majestic."
"Hey, I saw it, I saw it. It's really majestic. Could it be General Yu?" Meng Wanzhou was very curious and couldn't help but take a step forward.
As soon as we reached the edge of the lake, the rocks were splashed with water due to fish feeding, making them very slippery.
Yin Wenxiu also looked curious. She took a step forward to take a look, but stepped on the hem of Meng Wanzhou's skirt.
Meng Wanzhou was pulled by her skirt, her feet slipped, she screamed and fell towards the lake.
Yin Wenxiu was also startled, stretched out her hand to hold her, and exclaimed: "Be careful!"
With a strong tug, Meng Wanzhou was pulled back, but her feet slipped and she fell into the lake.
"Wenxiu!" Meng Wanzhou was shocked and turned back to grab Yin Wenxiu subconsciously.
His hand almost touched Yin Wenxiu's, but Yin Wenxiu dodged it and fell into the lake.
There was a sound of "Bang!", water splashed everywhere, and the fish scattered in panic.
Meng Wanzhou shouted in horror, "Help! Someone is here!"
With that said, he lay down by the lake and reached out to grab Yin Wenxiu, "Wenxiu! Quick! Grab my hand!"
However, Yin Wenxiu fluttered around randomly and couldn't catch her hand for a while.
Meng Wanzhou reached out to catch Yin Wenxiu without getting discouraged. Yin Wenxiu fell into the water because of her. She must not let anything happen to Yin Wenxiu!
The rest of the ladies and maids panicked for a moment, shouting in horror, "Here comes someone! Help! Someone has fallen into the water!"
