The Regent's Concubine is Crazy

Chapter 206 The Big Wedding

Shangguan Ziling sat on the edge of the bed, her hands clenched, her knuckles white from excessive tension. Her heartbeat was as rapid as a war drum, thumping, and each beat hit her chest hard. Her eyes were fixed on the front, as if she was looking for some kind of comfort or strength.

She was wearing a gorgeous wedding gown with a wide skirt embroidered with intricate peony patterns in bright colors. Her long hair was carefully combed and braided into a complicated bun, with a golden phoenix hairpin inserted in it. The tassels swayed gently, making subtle sounds.

The noise outside became clearer and clearer, with loud gongs and drums, firecrackers, and people's cheers and blessings.

That was the Regent's wedding procession arriving.

Shangguan Ziling took a deep breath and tried to calm her inner tension.

Shangguan Ziling slowly closed her eyes and let the maid gently put the red veil on her head. At that moment, she felt as if she was enveloped by a layer of warm red, and all her uneasiness and tension disappeared.

"Miss, Miss, the Regent has arrived at the gate of Jiangziyuan," Xia Yu said happily while running.

Shangguan Ziling muttered, "So fast?" There was a hint of trembling and anticipation in her voice.

"Yes, Miss, the Regent has arrived at the gate of Jiangziyuan." Xia Yu replied breathlessly.

Shangguan Ziling clutched the edge of her veil tightly with both hands, as if looking for a little comfort. She felt her heart beating wildly.

Mo Shaoxie strode into the Crimson Purple Courtyard. His figure was tall and majestic, as unshakable as a mountain.

When Shangguan Zirun saw him, he immediately saluted and said, "Your Highness the Regent." His tone was respectful, and it was obvious that he was in awe of Mo Shaoxie's identity.

Because of Mo Shaoxie's identity, no one dared to stop him, and Mo Shaoxie walked in directly with a swagger.

Mo Shaoxie nodded. He walked into the room and saw Shangguan Ziling sitting beside the bed, covered with a wedding veil. A warm current surged in his heart. He walked forward and said softly, "Ling'er, I am here to marry you home."

When Shangguan Ziling heard Mo Shaoxie's voice, her heart warmed and she said "hmm".

Mo Shaoxie simply picked her up and strode out of the room.

Everyone in the room was stunned. They didn't expect Mo Shaoxie to be so direct.

Shangguan Zirun looked at this scene, and his mouth twitched. He didn't even need to carry his sister to the sedan chair, because she was just carried away. He shook his head helplessly and turned a blind eye.

Mo Shaoxie carried Shangguan Ziling to the hall. He knelt down to bid farewell to his parents. Beichen Xue's eyes were red. She had finally come back, but before she could spend a few days with her daughter, her daughter got married.

Shangguan Dong had been comforting his wife, and he felt bad himself.

After kneeling down to bid farewell to his parents, Mo Shaoxie carried Shangguan Ziling sideways as he walked out and carried her directly into the bridal sedan.

The matchmaker muttered beside the sedan chair: "This is against the rules."

Mo Shaoxie turned around and gave her a cold look, then said, "This king is the rule."

The matchmaker was stunned and speechless.

The curtain of the sedan chair opened slightly, and Mo Shaoxie carefully placed Shangguan Ziling on the embroidered brocade cushion.

Inside the sedan, Shangguan Ziling could only glimpse the movement of his clothes through the gap in the veil.

Mo Shaoxie turned around, gently closed the curtain of the sedan chair, and signaled to set off.

All of a sudden, the sound of gongs and drums rang out, creating an extremely lively atmosphere.

What followed was a row of boxes loaded with dowry. The people talked about it and praised the prime minister for his love for his daughter. Some even speculated that the prime minister's mansion had spent everything it had on this wedding.

"The Prime Minister really loves his daughter. With so many boxes of dowry, I'm afraid the Prime Minister's Mansion must have been emptied out!" someone said enviously.

"She married the Prince Regent, so she has to curry favor with him!" someone nearby responded sourly.

"That's not the case. When the Prince Regent went to the Prime Minister's residence to deliver the betrothal gifts, there was a line that stretched all the way to the end of the street!" someone added.

As the procession slowly moved forward, the long dowry procession seemed to have no end, and finally arrived at the Regent's Palace. Mo Shaoxie turned over and got off the horse. The matchmaker twisted her waist, waved the red handkerchief in her hand, and shouted loudly: "Please ask the Regent to kick the sedan door."

Mo Shaoxie walked forward, bent down, entered the sedan, and gently picked up Shangguan Ziling.

Shangguan Ziling only had time to let out a faint cry of surprise before he held her firmly in his arms.

Seeing this, the matchmaker immediately shut her mouth.

Mo Shaoxie held Shangguan Ziling in his arms and strode into the lobby of the Regent's Mansion.

In the hall, many ministers had been waiting for a long time. They were all shocked when they saw this scene.

Although Shangguan Ziling was covered with a red veil, it was not difficult to see her beauty from her graceful figure and elegant temperament.

Everyone began to speculate whether the Regent was just putting on a show or was really deeply in love with Shangguan Ziling.

The entire lobby was silent, with only the sound of Mo Shaoxie's steady footsteps echoing.

Mo Shaoxie gently put Shangguan Ziling down and carefully supported her to make sure she stood firmly.

Mo Shaoxie's eyes fell on the official in charge of the ceremony.

The official immediately understood and announced loudly: "The time has come, the bride and groom are in the hall!"

Mo Shaoxie held Shangguan Ziling's hand and slowly turned to face the heaven and earth. They bowed together to express their respect and gratitude to the heaven and earth. This bow was both a respect for nature and an expectation for future life.

"Two thanks to the high hall!"

Then, the two turned around and faced the high seats, which should have been the seats of Mo Shaoxie's parents. However, they had passed away long ago, leaving only two empty seats. Mo Shaoxie and Shangguan Ziling bowed to the empty high seats.

"Happy husband and wife!"

Finally, the two of them turned sideways, bent over and bowed to each other. This bow marked that they officially became husband and wife and would spend their lives together from then on.

"The ceremony is completed and sent to the bridal chamber!"

As the ceremony was declared over, there was a burst of applause and cheers.

Mo Shaoxie looked at Shangguan Ziling with a smile, his eyes full of tenderness and love. He stretched out his hand, picked her up horizontally, walked through the crowd, and walked towards their wedding room.

The butler stood at one end of the banquet, his voice was loud and polite, calling the guests to take their seats one after another. The banquet was filled with all kinds of delicacies, which were delicious and mouth-watering.

The guests were chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere was warm and harmonious.

On the rooftop opposite the Regent's Palace, Dongfang Piaoyi sat alone, his eyes revealing a deep sense of frustration.

He took the wine jar, raised his head and took a big sip. The wine flowed down the corners of his mouth, reflecting his mood at the moment. He murmured, "Little girl, I wish you happiness!"

Zhuge Wan'er sat quietly at the side, her eyes deep and gentle. Hearing Dongfang Piaoyi's words, she said softly: "Sister Ziling will definitely be happy. I say, Dongfang Piaoyi, you should also let go of Sister Ziling and try to accept me, okay?"

Dongfang Piaoyi turned to look at Zhuge Wan'er, a complex look flashed in his eyes. Dongfang Piaoyi didn't know how to face Zhuge Wan'er, so he just dodged and left.

Zhuge Wan'er said angrily: "Dongfang Piaoyi, you run again, hum!" Then Zhuge Wan'er chased after him again.
