The sudden fatherly love made Lin Yan a little overwhelmed. Looking at the man in front of her, tears flowed down her face involuntarily, but the corners of her mouth were slightly raised.

Originally, I felt some rejection and unfamiliarity towards this stepfather, but at this moment, all those negative emotions disappeared.

Lin Yan bowed solemnly to Lin Jijiu and said firmly, "Dad, don't worry, I will never let you down."

Just then, a burst of cheerful firecrackers was heard outside.

"Crack!"

As the sound of firecrackers rang out, the atmosphere around became lively.

Suddenly, there was a commotion among the crowd. Someone shouted, "The auspicious time has arrived!"

After this shout, everyone at the scene started to get busy. The band played cheerful music, firecrackers rang out one after another, and a festive atmosphere filled the air.

Lin Yan was slowly helped out of the house by the matchmaker, and Lin Jijiu and his wife watched her get into the bridal sedan.

Sitting in the bridal sedan, Lin Yan took a deep breath, fiddled with her skirt, and tried to calm herself down. She told herself not to be nervous, the Rui Palace was not a man-eating monster, and as long as she remained calm and alert, she would be able to deal with any situation.

At the same time, another bridal sedan was slowly lifted up from the Chen residence, with a bridal entourage of ten miles, heading towards an unknown future.

It was a coincidence that two sedan chairs arrived at the Rui Palace at the same time, and they immediately became the focus of attention. Who would enter the palace first? The two matchmakers refused to give way to each other, and the two sedan chairs blocked the entrance of the Rui Palace.

According to traditional customs, the wife should enter the house first, but since Lin Yan and Chen Qingqing were both concubines, there was no clear rule on who should enter first and who should enter later. It was just that the elder sister usually entered the house first, and the younger sister entered the house later. For a moment, the scene became a little awkward, and no one knew how to deal with it.

The two matchmakers looked at each other, a cunning look on their faces, then they turned their waists at the same time and walked towards the bride in the sedan to make a decision.

"Miss Lin, look at this..."

"Let that side go in first!" Lin Yan answered without hesitation, her tone firm and humble.

"Miss Chen, look at this..." another matchmaker turned to another sedan chair and asked with a smile on her face.

"Let that side go in first!" Chen Qingqing responded politely, her voice gentle and melodious.

Both brides showed great accomplishment and modesty, but this excessive politeness led to an awkward stalemate. The sedan chairs of both parties stood in a stalemate at the gate of the palace, forming a unique landscape.

The people watching the ceremony around started talking about it. They were curious and surprised about this special situation.

"Prince Rui is so lucky. He just broke his fate of being a wife-killer. His two concubines are so humble. It seems they are from well-educated families. We really envy them!" said a spectator with emotion.

Zhao Lei brought Xiang Ling to the wedding, and he commented cheerfully: "Your former master was always famous and had a lot of gossip."

Xiang Ling looked at the scene in front of her and couldn't help laughing: "I wonder which of them will go in first?"

At the same time, Mu Shirley sat inside happily, secretly wondering who of the two people outside would come in first. No matter who came in first, it would be an interesting thing for her. Because from now on, one of them would definitely become the focus of everyone's attention, and the other might bear some invisible pressure. In this way, no matter which one came in first, it would bring some waves to their future life.

Zhao Yuan had not expected such a mess to happen. Two sedan chairs were blocking the side door, and he couldn't ask the concubine to open the main door, right? If he opened the main door, a bunch of people would point fingers at him and lecture him non-stop.

"Miss, what should we do?" Mango asked anxiously.

Chun Ya also quietly asked the young lady: "Miss, what should we do?"

"Don't be in a hurry, let the other side go in first!" Chen Qingqing had her own little thoughts. Since she was being humble, she must be humble to the end, so that outside eyes can see more of her virtues, and she will become a story that will be praised by others in the future.

Lin Yan was wearing a gorgeous wedding dress, an exquisite phoenix crown on her head, and light makeup on her face, which made her look particularly beautiful. She raised her head slightly and glanced around. The guests exclaimed, "What is Miss Lin doing?"

Zhao Yuan walked over quickly, trying to stuff Lin Yan back into the sedan. If he hadn't wanted to marry her, he would have escaped long ago under the pretext of the prince having him work for him, and wouldn't have had to stand outside the gate in such an awkward position.

Zhao Lei asked Xiang Ling: "Guess what Lin Yan wants to do?"

"The girl has a very strange personality, and I have never been able to guess her thoughts." Xiang Ling said, and now she has become a concubine of Zhao Lei. After many twists and turns, she finally fell into Zhao Lei's hands.

The matchmaker helped Lin Yan to the front of Chen Qingqing's sedan chair and said in a charming voice, "Miss Chen, how about we get off the sedan chair together and walk into the Rui Palace hand in hand?"

Zhao Yuan couldn't help but feel happy when he heard this. He didn't expect Lin Yan to be so smart and come up with such a perfect solution. He looked at Lin Yan and Chen Qingqing with admiration and satisfaction in his eyes.

Chen Qingqing was completely stunned. She didn't expect Lin Yan to make such a request. She originally thought that Lin Yan would compete with her, and even have a conflict with her, so that she could naturally leave a good impression in front of King Rui. But now it seems that she miscalculated.

However, despite this, Chen Qingqing still felt a little unwilling. She felt that she had somehow lost to Lin Yan, and this feeling made her very uncomfortable. But facing the current situation, she could not refuse Lin Yan's proposal. After all, she did not want to leave a bad impression on others.

Finally, Chen Qingqing reluctantly nodded in agreement. She slowly stepped down from the bridal sedan and stood with Lin Yan. The two held hands and walked towards the Rui Palace together. Along the way, people cast curious glances at them and discussions arose one after another.

This scene surprised everyone present, especially Zhao Yuan. He had thought that the wedding would become chaotic because of the fight between the two brides, but he didn't expect it to end in such a harmonious way.

Seeing Lin Yan and Chen Qingqing being so close, Zhao Yuan couldn't help but feel an indescribable emotion towards Lin Yan's intelligence and delicacy. He thought to himself, this woman is really like a cunning fox, and like a smart monkey, she is at ease.

The sound of firecrackers rang out again, and the sound of gongs and drums sounded again, and the whole scene was extremely lively.

At the same time, Princess Mu was anxiously waiting for news in her room. When she learned that Lin Yan and Chen Qingqing had successfully entered the palace, she couldn't help but feel dissatisfied. She gritted her teeth and said, "Humph, it turns out that people with the surname Lin are not easy to deal with! She is lucky this time. I will deal with her slowly after she enters the palace!" After that, Princess Mu waved her hand angrily and signaled the maid beside her to close the door.
