The Initial Volume of Heaven's Trouble ☆ and Dear Princess 006 Chapter: Getting Married in a Flash (Already Revised)
All the way, she stumbled and staggered, dragging her long skirt almost running to keep up with a certain big man's footsteps. Yixin was panting, beads of sweat as big as beans dripping down her face one after another, soaking through her clothes.
Even so, no matter how cold the air emanating from Ye Jue's body was, and no matter if his face had already turned dark as a thunderstorm, the small hand grasping his sleeve never let go.
She was really tired, so tired that even taking a deep breath felt laborious, everything in front of her seemed to have multiple shadows, if she wasn't holding onto him, Yixin didn't know if she could still stand steadily.
She didn't want to make so many jokes, nor did she want to embarrass him. She knew that perhaps during the two ceremonies held in the imperial city, she had made a big fool of herself in public, making it uncomfortable for this high and mighty prince. But in her life of more than ten years, trouble was her synonym.
From young to old, she didn't know how much trouble she had caused, some of which was her own doing, some of which was her causing trouble for others, and of course there were also others who caused trouble for her. Every time she got into trouble, she would drag her older brother along to clean up the mess, gradually cultivating her carefree and willful personality.
My brothers often say, don't be afraid of trouble, no matter how big the trouble is, we will help you clean it up.
In fact, she just wasn't very good at taking care of herself or managing her own things, and didn't have that many twists and turns in her intestines. She had never done anything bad before. At most, she would occasionally knock something over or accidentally offend those noble ladies with her careless words, requiring her brother to use his "beautiful man plan" to bail her out.
To say, she has harmed others less and harmed herself more.
Although her mind is now as confused as a pot of porridge, Yixin still has some certainty that this man is deliberately punishing her. His legs are so long and hers are so short, he takes one step forward and she has to take two small steps, when he walks fast, she can only run to keep up with his pace.
She was indeed trying out some things, but as for jumping over the fire basin, it really wasn't her intention, and she wouldn't be happy to lose such a big good person either.
"You, you, how did you stop like this?"
It's as if an eternity has passed, and yet it feels like just a century ago. Yixin is bent at the waist, leaning heavily against him, panting heavily, and really wants to faint on the spot.
"Your Highness, Your Highness..." Xue Qi wiped the sweat from her forehead and ran to Yixin's side, holding out a hand to support her. Sun Shangshu had long been left far behind. "War King, please allow us two slaves to help the princess adjust her attire." The two bowed their heads respectfully and saluted Ye Juechen, waiting quietly for his instructions.
"Hurry up."
"Yes."
Mingyuan Hall, also known as Jinluan Hall, is where all officials attend court and the emperor holds court.
The golden glazed tiles shone with dazzling golden light in the sunlight at noon, and the entire palace was located in the central position of the imperial palace, with carved dragons and painted pillars, rich and majestic, yet not losing its grandeur, everywhere showing a domineering aura that reigns supreme.
Under the deft hands of two maids, the hole burned by fire on the princess's dragon robe was thoroughly covered up. On the long hem, there were lifelike golden phoenixes, noble and elegant yet not lacking in grandeur. After adjusting the position of the phoenix coronet and tidying up her hair, she finally managed to make Yexin dye look like a refined and elegant princess.
"Your Highness Princess, please follow His Majesty the King into the palace. We servants will wait outside."
"Hey, let's go."
Suppressing her curiosity, Yixin stood still on the spot, not daring to move. If she were to make another scene, this man would definitely not let her off lightly.
There were ancient emperors and empresses inside, she didn't know what was different from those actors playing roles, it really made her curious to death, but also didn't dare to act rashly.
"Your Majesty, the War King has arrived——"
The little eunuch raised his voice, and a long, distant, yet sharp and fine sound came out of his throat, almost making Yixin's heart jump.
She wasn't scared, but excited. Her body didn't feel tired at all. She saw a real eunuch, a real hermaphrodite, it was really too stimulating.
Sometimes acting too much can also be poisonous, just like Yixin Yan, it's as if she has become another person.
"The son pays his respects to the emperor and empress, wishing them ten thousand blessings and peace."
As they entered the hall, Ye Xue released Yixin's hand and bowed respectfully before falling silent.
Even with the cover of her hood, those piercing gazes made Yixin's heart skip a beat and her back feel numb. Unconsciously, she hid behind Ye Juechen. This man wasn't good to her, but she only knew him, and apart from him, she didn't trust anyone else.
"Hehe, Your Majesty, the Princess of Southern Kingdom seems to like our Dusty very much. I think they are a good match." The clear laughter of Empress Xuan Yuan eased the tense atmosphere.
What kind of temperament her son has, as a mother, she can't know? It's not easy to let Ye Juechen take the girl on the road, especially Yixinran's lovely and slightly defensive little movements make her like it even more.
Maybe this reconciliation isn't as bad as I thought.
If she could gain a good daughter-in-law, she thought it was worth it.
"The Queen is right." The Night Emperor's pair of bright and shining black eyes seemed to smile and yet not smile as they swept over Yixin, finally landing on his son Ye Juedi, with a hint of worry flashing across the bottom of his eyes before quickly disappearing.
"Where has your etiquette gone?" Ye Juechen stood straight, his expression unchanged as he whispered, and the man who had previously felt a bit regretful about punishing her suddenly thought that the punishment was too light.
Who made her hide behind him, it's really infuriating.
"I wish to pay respects to the Emperor, may he always be smiling and have everything go his way. I also wish to pay respects to the Empress, may she remain youthful forever and every year be as auspicious as this morning."
She took two steps back, her heart racing with fear, and almost fell over after stepping on her own clothes. She quickly finished what she had to say, then hid behind him again, ignoring his various threats and refusing to leave.
"You're so sweet-tongued, Mother loves hearing you say that."
"Hmm, the queen called her 'mother', that means she's acknowledging her as her daughter-in-law. 'Mother is so nice.'"
She misses her mother, she just disappeared inexplicably like that, will her mother be very sad and heartbroken.
"Your Majesty, let them pay their respects."
"The princess has come from afar and should take a good rest. After paying respects, she can return to the war king's mansion to rest."
"Thank you, Father."
"Let's just call me Xin Ran, or Xin Ran Jiu Er. I feel awkward when I hear the word 'princess'." Lowering her head, Yixin Ran opened her mouth and started speaking, completely forgetting who she was talking to.
What she said will also bring about what kind of suspicion from others.
A sharp light flashed across Ye Huang's eyes, and his piercing gaze fell on Yixin's body in an instant. She bowed to him, not calling herself a princess, but saying her own name, which made him feel both surprised and strange, with a weird feeling that couldn't be described in just one or two sentences.
"Jiuer, from now on I will call you Jiuer."
"Thank you, Father Emperor."
The wedding ceremony of the royal family is different from that of ordinary people. Firstly, it involves worshiping the ancestors of the imperial family. Secondly, it involves kneeling and paying respects to the emperor and empress. Thirdly, it involves the couple bowing to each other, which marks the completion of the ritual.
The first two items went very smoothly, and Yixin's movements were not quite standard, but also regular. However, just as the couple was about to bow to each other, Yixin's head had not even bowed down yet when she suddenly fell to the ground, shocking Xuan Yuan Huang Hou so much that she covered her mouth with a handkerchief.
"What's going on?" Ye Huang angrily asked.
Ye Juechen caught her firmly in his arms the moment she fell to the ground, and it wasn't until his hands touched her body that he was shocked to discover this little girl was running a high fever, her entire body burning like fire.
"Your Majesty, the ceremony is over, I'll take her down first."
Without any hesitation, he swept up Yixin in his arms, the bright red veil falling to the ground, revealing a pale yet breathtakingly beautiful face. Compared to her, all flowers would lose their color, and even the sun and moon would dim slightly.
"Your Majesty, I truly dare not believe my own eyes... there actually exists someone as beautiful as this in the world..."
"Queen sister, younger sister should congratulate you, got a good daughter-in-law..."
“、、、、、、”
Inside the palace, all the imperial concubines were shocked by Yixin's stunning beauty that could topple cities and kingdoms. Outside the palace, Ye Junchen's thick voice echoed in every corner, "Quickly summon the imperial physician."
In the corner, a pair of tearful eyes stared fixedly at that door, forgetting everything, and even herself.
