Cultivation Goddess
Chapters 378. Legitimate
The guards and the people involved in Fang Yin and Jian Heng's wedding ceremony prepared to welcome Fang Yin's arrival. They also asked Jian Heng to stand up and wait for the bride at the entrance.
Fang Yin and Jian Heng's marriage took place solemnly despite the start of a minor melee. The two families felt relieved even more so the great family of Fang Yin who felt uneasy as the bride advanced the event as she wished.
Once legal as a couple, the two entertain guests with a variety of special dishes. The guards and all the palace residents also get a banquet evenly. There was a special team in charge of delivering the banquet for them.
"Princess Gu has always been attentive to small people. We are very concerned even if only a lowly bodyguard" said one of the bodyguards to his colleague.
They were enjoying the wedding dishes being sent and alternating with each other to keep watch. Although very few outsiders knew about Fang Yin's marriage, they still had to be wary of any bad possibilities that could have happened. The kindness that Fang Yin instilled made them instinctively want to repay him with the same.
"You're right. Everything we receive is worth the fatigue we feel. Hopefully this country will be more successful" he replied.
The bodyguard who opened the conversation just nodded as his mouth was filled with food.
"I heard that after this wedding, the government will be held by the Third Prince" said another bodyguard.
"No need to worry, the Third Prince is not much different from Princess Gu. He has great wisdom and looks more patient. The two of them must be working together to rule this country."
"That's right. May our well-being be further enhanced by the new leadership held by Princess Gu and the Third Prince."
"We must work our best to support Princess Gu and the Third Prince."
The bodyguards continued to speak out to express their joy at the leadership change that had taken place. They are also happy to enjoy a very special feast.
Inside the palace, the dignitaries mingled together with the palace's extended family. They exchanged stories and experiences that they had gone through the past few weeks.
In the corner of the room, someone was crying. She was Consort Ning.
His tears spilled when he saw Fang Yin and Jian Heng sitting on the throne. Concubine Ning cried not because she felt sad over the princess' marriage but because her heart was being overwhelmed by deep regret.
Concubine Shi accidentally saw her while walking over greeting the guests. After he was done with his affairs he went to Concubine Ning who was still glued to her place.
Concubine Shi's presence made Consort Ning surprised. She did not expect that Consort Shi would find her and leave the hall. His hand wiped his tears in a hurry but of course it still left a damp mark.
"What are you doing here, brother? Today is our daughter's wedding day, you shouldn't be sad" Consort Shi said.
Instead of replying, Consort Ning instead moved from her seat then got up to hug Concubine Shi. His tears were spilling again, even more profusely than before.
Concubine Shi looked puzzled and tried to calm Consort Ning down with a gentle swipe on her shoulder.
"Third Concubine, I'm sorry. I have ruined all your happiness. It should be today that His Majesty watched his daughter get married. So too with the queen and our extended family. I'm so sinful." Concubine Ning spoke stammeringly on her sobs.
Everything that has happened cannot be repeated. In the shift of time, the past is just a little memory that will gradually be forgotten by the actors. Every event has meaning, no matter if it is fun or sad.
"Everything's happened. Regret will only make you feel tormented. We've forgiven you and Yin'er. Forget it, let's live peacefully and support our daughter to make a change in this country." Concubine Shi wiped the tears on Consort Ning's cheek.
"It is fitting that His Majesty loves you very much. You are very kind and sincere even though I have hurt you many times in the past. Thanks." Concubine Ning smiled amidst her broken tears.
"Smile don't cry anymore." Concubine Shi took out a handkerchief then gave it to Consort Ning.
Although it looks shabby but the handkerchief has a soft structure and is able to absorb water. Concubine Shi added some herbs that made her smell very fragrant.
Concubine Ning nodded and accepted Consort Shi's handkerchief. His face was cold when touched by a handkerchief. The herbs stored in it leave a sensation of freshness.
"Third Concubine, my face feels so fresh after using this handkerchief. You do have an amazing talent in concocting herbal ingredients. Can I have this handkerchief?" Concubine Ning was so interested in Consort Shi's handkerchief.
"Take it. I still have some of the same handkerchiefs," Consort Shi replied with a smile.
"Thank you."
Concubine Shi nodded.
"Come, we're going inside. People will definitely be looking for us if we stay here too long." Concubine Shi grabbed Consort Ning's shoulder and then carried her walking.
The two looked like a pair of sisters supporting each other. There was no longer any barrier for them to share with each other. The hatred and envy in Consort Ning's heart had been crumbled by Consort Shi's kindness and sincerity.
Everyone was astonished by the presence of the two of them because they had not seen the two come out before. However, they don't want to know about this.
Fang Yin and Jian Heng were not together for the first time. They used to spend the day together. However, with their new status made the two look awkward.
Fang Yin and Jian Heng sat next to each other on the edge of the bed. They're not close to each other. There was an empty space separating the two.
Jian Heng looked towards Fang Yin but when Fang Yin returned his gaze he instead turned the other way. His cheeks looked red from enduring the shame.
"Sister Heng," called Fang Yin.
"Yes, Yin'er. Are you tired?" jian Heng asked nervously.
Fang Yin chuckled softly seeing Jian Heng's sweat condensing on his temple. A valiant like you can also feel nervous. This scene looked very funny to Fang Yin.
"Is there something strange on my face? Or is there food left?" Jian Heng rubbed his face recklessly and prepared to go look for a mirror.
"Where are you going, brother? Just here." Fang Yin patted the empty spot beside him.
Jian Heng paused his intention to leave and chose to return to sit beside Fang Yin. This time he sat closer to Fang Yin.
Both of Jian Heng's hands rested on the beds on both sides of his body. Still with his timid attitude, Jian Heng forced himself to behave normally.
Fang Yin placed his palm over Jian Heng's palm. This treatment made him misbehave and palpitate.
"Your hands are cold, Brother Heng."
"really? Maybe your feelings, Yin'er. I'm not cold" elak Jian Heng.
Fang Yin ignored Jian Heng's words and chose to rest his head on the man who had officially become her husband. His hand tightly grasped Jian Heng's hand. A sense of warmth began to creep up on the bodies of both illustrating how happy they were today.
Their lips were tightly closed but they knew what each other wanted. The heart ripples when the distance begins to erode and runs out without blocking. Without warning everything happens so beautifully when their faces touch each other.
The longer they got the courage to sue each other. There was a slight sense of awkwardness between the two but they were both unable to contain themselves.
"Yin'er! May I ...," whispered Jian Heng to a halt as the bodyguard standing guard in front of the room reported the arrival of her two brothers.
Fang Yin smiled amusedly when he saw the disappointment on Jian Heng's face. It is still too late afternoon, it is not time to start their activities as newlyweds.
"Don't worry, we still have plenty of time. It's still afternoon anyway. I want to go take a shower, you go see brother." Fang Yin tidied up his slightly messy clothes.
"All right! I'll open the door for brother and take you to the front door." There was no other choice for Jian Heng and forced him to resign to the circumstances.
The two walked hand in hand to the front of the door and found Xi Hao Xiang and Xi Changyi had stood before the door when Jian Heng opened it. Unlike Fang Yin who looked timid when faced with his two brothers-in-law, Jian Heng was more confident. He even intentionally did not fix his messy clothes and hair.
"Let's go in, brother. I'm going to the bath now. I'm sorry I can't accompany you guys to have a conversation" Fang Yin said politely.
"Ah, yes, please take a shower. It's getting late and soon it's getting dark." Xi Hao Xiang let Fang Yin go.
"Alright," Fang Yin replied as she bowed her body for a while to give her respect before passing.
Xi Hao Xiang and Xi Changyi walked into Jian Heng's room. Preceding Jian Heng who was still pensive.
"Heng! You look so messy. Have you started the battle?" xi Changyi asked as he looked at Jian Heng from head to toe.
Xi Hao Xiang also followed closely looking towards Jian Heng with the same look. He even walked around Jian Heng's body and searched around for something odd from his sister.
"You guys are just there. What if I make out with Yin'er? No one's banning him because we're married." Jian Heng looked annoyed at the attitude of his two older brothers.
"Yes, too, yeah. Kog I want to know." Xi Hao Xiang tapped his lips with the index end of his right hand.
Jian Heng walked back up then dropped his body beside a table. Xi Hao Xiang and Xi Changyi caught up with him. The three brothers fell silent and threw one another a glance.
