My Lady is well
Chapter 4 Getting married
According to palace etiquette, she could only bring one personal maid into the palace, and Jin'er was the perfect choice.
Shen Yueyao was carried into the palace in a wedding sedan chair, and was supported by a group of palace maids and nannies as she entered the Yuntai Hall to perform a simple ceremony.
She was sitting on a coral embroidered couch, her head covered with a scarlet handkerchief embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water.
It was almost midnight and there was no sign of Jing Ruzhang. Shen Yueyao lifted the veil, revealing a pair of bright eyes.
The room was filled with red silk, exuding the joy of a newlywed. The red candles were swaying, the crescent moon was half hidden, and the moonlight and candlelight were reflected on her soft face, flickering.
Jin Er said in surprise: "Miss, this veil has to wait for the Crown Prince to come and take it off."
Shen Yueyao lowered her eyelashes and said in a calm voice.
"He's not coming."
"How could that be? After all, it's the wedding night. What's the matter if the groom doesn't come?"
This was Jing Ruzhang's revenge on her.
In today's era, if the groom does not enter the bridal chamber on the wedding night, it is undoubtedly the greatest humiliation for a woman.
Shen Yueyao is different. She cannot be bound by such absurd traditional concepts and morals.
She doesn't care about reputation.
She only cares about her life.
Seeing the wine and food on the rosewood dining table through the mahogany embroidered bed screen, the corners of her mouth curved in an arc of interest.
Shen Yueyao stood up and walked slowly to the food table, dragging her long dress.
The two small cups were connected by a red string, which seemed to represent a marriage made in heaven. This was originally the wedding wine for the newlyweds.
She untied the red string, took a cup and poured a glass of wine.
The moonlight poured on the ground, like a field of broken silver.
She raised her eyes to look at the crescent moon half hidden among the clouds in the sky, she smiled faintly, raised her glass and whispered.
"People today cannot see the moon of the past, but this moon once shone on the ancients. I wonder if it is the same moon inside and outside the play?"
She was leaning against the window frame, her figure was slim and her slender back looked a little frail.
He tilted his head slightly, raised his delicate chin, and drank his thoughts in the moonlight.
One cup after another until I lost consciousness.
Bright red liquid flowed from wounds all over the body, dyeing the light blue clothes red.
Blood dripped down the clothes and hit the cold floor, leaving a large stain.
Intense pain drilled into his chest from all over, and shrill screams echoed throughout the execution ground.
The cold wind roared in my ears like a merciless mockery.
Shen Yueyao suddenly felt dizzy and the world began to turn upside down.
She suddenly opened her eyes, and there was lingering fear in her peach-like eyes.
After a long while, consciousness began to withdraw from the dream, like a drop of water falling into a lake, causing ripples.
Her forehead was covered with a thin layer of sweat, and Bai Fu supported her body with her hands and sat up.
Soft hair hung down on the couch, and he gently rubbed his forehead with his fingertips.
Jin'er came over and lifted the gauze curtain, and saw that she looked unusual.
"Master, what's going on?"
Shen Yueyao shook her head in sudden realization. She didn't know how to explain it to her. She was lost in thought for a moment and just said something lightly.
"Hel me up."
The pain of the knife cutting the flesh was so intense that the dream seemed to foreshadow her ending.
She couldn't sit still and wait for death.
Jin'er helped her sit in front of the dressing table.
The beauty in the mirror has long black hair that falls to her waist, long eyelashes like painted fans, a beautiful appearance, and slightly furrowed eyebrows, as if she has something unknown on her mind.
Shen Yueyao gently stroked her soft chest and sighed.
Thinking about ways to escape fate.
In the blink of an eye, the figure of an old woman flashed in the mirror, and the little palace maid following behind her was holding a mahogany table with a bowl of medicine on it.
This paragraph is written in the book, Madam Cui is the confidant of the Crown Princess.
I was ordered by the Crown Princess to give her contraceptive soup.
Unexpectedly, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't even enter the bridal chamber. Nanny Cui was stunned for a moment and lowered her head and whispered.
"Oh, I've never seen anything like this before. I thought the person brought back by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must be someone of note. I didn't expect him to be a loser. It seems like he won't be able to hold his head up high in the East Palace in the future."
After finding out what was going on, he turned around and left without entering the house.
Shen Yueyao smiled bitterly and shook her head slightly. She looked a little strange and for a moment she didn't know whether to be happy or sad.
Jin'er picked out a few outstanding double happiness hairpins with the pattern of wealth and honor. These gold hairpins were too ostentatious, and she was afraid that others would not be jealous of her.
Shen Yueyao shook her head and said lightly.
"Change it to a thin hairpin with orchid core."
"Master, isn't this orchid-core hairpin a little petty?"
Shen Yueyao held up her hand to her forehead and looked at Yan Jin'er, although she was a little stupid.
A loyal servant who is willing to live and die with her makes Shen Yueyao unable to help but keep her in her heart.
Shen Yueyao held her cheek with her hand and rolled her eyes, thinking that the original owner was a person of extravagance and boastfulness.
She thought for a while and ordered, "Jin'er, go find some plain-colored dresses."
Jin'er was surprised.
"Master, don't you dislike plain colors? Last year, when you came of age, the eldest lady gave you a moon-white misty gauze fairy dress, and you gave it to me as a reward. Don't you remember?"
Shen Yueyao put down her hands, shook her head and smiled bitterly. Most of this person's dresses were covered with various embroidery patterns, like peacocks, which were too eye-catching when she wore them out.
It's not easy to survive in the palace.
But I don't have much time to explain to her right now, so I just asked.
"Did you bring that dress with you?"
Jin Er nodded: "I will find it right away."
Shen Yueyao was wearing a moon-white misty gauze fairy dress with a light green palace belt tied around her waist, which made her waist look slender and soft.
She also put on some light makeup herself, and her moist red lips were naturally red, and she deliberately made them slightly white.
Jin'er muttered, "Master, you look so haggard in this outfit. I feel sorry for you. You will definitely be outshined by those concubines."
Shen Yueyao looked at the person in the mirror, who looked quite frail and sickly.
His lips curved into a deep arc as he spoke nonchalantly.
"The prince didn't enter Liu Fengxuan last night. Do you think I should sleep well? We just got here. Do you want me to outshine all the other girls and become the target of public criticism?"
"You slept very soundly last night..."
Jin'er opened her eyes slightly and suddenly realized.
"Master, did you do this on purpose?!"
Shen Yueyao gently touched her nose and said with a smile: "This young boy is teachable."
The Crown Princess is the granddaughter of Song Yizhi, a high-ranking official of the current dynasty, and her name is Song Yuanyi.
She is a noble lady from a prominent family.
To Yu Jingruzhang, she is an excellent and virtuous wife.
Even though Wen Xueshu became favored again later, her position as queen was not shaken.
However, after giving birth to the prince's eldest son Cheng'an a year ago, Song Yuanyi's health collapsed.
It is said that she had a difficult delivery and it took many imperial doctors consultation to save her from the brink of death.
There is a gurgling stream in the East Palace waterside pavilion. Behind the curtains in the pavilion, a tall jade-like figure can be vaguely seen, with one hand behind his back.
It seems like he is looking at her, but it also seems like he is not looking at her.
Shen Yueyao took a far glance as she walked through the corridor, paused slightly, and roughly guessed that it was Jing Ruzhang inside.
Her heart moved slightly, and something suddenly flashed through her mind.
After thinking for a moment, she decided to pretend she didn't see it and continued to move forward.
Jing Ruzhang's eyes were dark and unclear, and he sneered.
"interesting."
