Peach Blossom.

Tao Ye knew that this clumsy method would not be able to hide the truth sooner or later, so she just gave it a go and crawled out from under the bed.

Seeing this, Xiao Rui was not surprised at all, but disappointed: "Ah Jiao, what are you doing?"

At this time, several servants who heard Xiao Rui's voice gathered outside the door.

Tao Ye has always had a bad temper, and she had almost no sleep all night, so her face was very ugly. She couldn't help but say, "Mother is looking for me in a hurry at this time, just because she is worried that Master Chen's wedding procession has not arrived yet, but the princess's sedan chair has arrived first, so she has to find a way to hide me or drive me out to avoid offending the princess. If I hide myself first, isn't that what you want?"

"You..." Xiao Rui's face turned pale after hearing these words. Looking at Tao Ye's arrogant appearance, he felt that he could no longer endure it: "I really didn't expect that you are so filial on weekdays. Even if you are angry, you at least consider the overall situation. Today, you can say such a thing? Since you have said so much, I have done my best..."

Tao Ye frowned and wondered: Are they planning to fall out with each other?

Xiao Rui's face darkened, and the guilty look and polite tone from yesterday suddenly disappeared. The resentment that had been accumulated in his heart was about to explode: "No matter whether the Chen family's wedding procession is on the way or not, I order you to go to the Chen family right now!"

Tao Ye rolled her eyes and said with a half-smile: "What if I don't go?"

"Then I'll ask someone to take you there!" Xiao Rui turned around and was about to call someone.

Tao Ye then pulled out the hairpin on her head and pressed it against her neck: "If you dare to force me, I will make sure that you can't have your wedding and wait for your funeral!"

The two men's strong postures were equally matched, and they stared at each other, reaching a stalemate.

Yu'er hugged Taoye's waist and screamed in fear: "Mom..."

"Grandma is here!" someone shouted outside.

Zhou Yunniang hurried in from outside and ran to Xiao Rui's side: "Mother, the gatekeeper just came to report that the princess's sedan chair is about to arrive!"

Before Xiao Rui could react, Zhou Yunniang said, "Also, the Chen family's wedding procession will be here soon!"

Xiao Rui felt something was wrong and asked hurriedly, "Who do you think will arrive first?"

"The princess's sedan chair is coming from the east, and the Chen family's team is coming from the west, so they seem to be not far away. The people below asked, if they arrive at the same time, which one should be allowed to come in first?" Zhou Yunniang looked worried.

Xiao Rui was at a loss as to what to do.

Zhou Yunniang continued to mutter: "If we let the Chen family come in first, wouldn't it be a disgrace to the princess? If we let the princess come in first, what if she sees..."

Zhou Yunniang didn't dare to finish her words, but everyone's eyes were secretly cast on Tao Ye.

Tao Ye felt that she had become the center of attention again. She seemed a little proud, but also a little uncomfortable. She was distracted unconsciously and was not prepared for Xiao Rui to suddenly grab her arms from the side and twist them behind her back swiftly.

Tao Ye was unable to move, and the hairpin in her hand fell off. She was silently shocked: It turned out that the mistress of the Wang family was a martial artist!

Xiao Rui finally made up his mind: "The Chen family's wedding party does not need to come in, just wait outside the door to pick up the bride. Quickly change Miss Man into wedding clothes and send her out through the back door immediately! Also, have someone notify Master Chen to go to the back door to pick him up!"

Yu'er was still clinging to Tao Ye. When she heard this, she slapped Xiao Rui with her hands: "I hate Grandma, you are a bad person! A bad person!"

Zhou Yunniang winked at the maids who followed her, and two or three of them came to pull Yu'er. Yu'er cried "Mom" and was dragged away forcibly.

"Yu'er!" Tao Ye called out. She looked at Yu'er's tearful little face and felt very sad.

Tao Ye stared at Xiao Rui and silently declared in her heart: "If you have the guts, control me for the rest of my life, or I'll make you pay sooner or later!"

Although Xiao Rui tried to solve the backyard problem as quickly as possible, it still wasted a lot of time.

In the front yard of Situ Mansion, guests who came to congratulate had already gathered and were hosted by Wang Dun, the eldest son of the Wang family; and outside the main gate of Situ Mansion, two groups of people in wedding dresses had arrived.

Princess Si Yao's bridal procession came from the east. At the front was Wang Ao, the third son of the Wang family, who was riding a horse and leading the procession to welcome the bride.

Wang Ao was asked by his mother Xiao Rui to move very slowly after picking up Princess Si Yao, so as to buy as much time as possible to deal with the affairs of Mantangjiao at home.

But Chen Ji sent Ma Da to keep an eye on Wang Ao before dawn. Chen Ji walked as slowly as Wang Ao walked, until both teams reached the street where Wang's family lived, facing each other from the east and west.

Wang Ao saw Chen Ji leading his troops coming from the west and felt that something was wrong, so he had to stop marching.

With this stop, the entire procession stopped on the street, including Princess Si Yao's sedan chair.

Si Yao felt that the sedan chair had stopped moving and felt a little puzzled, but as a bride she should be reserved, so she had to wait quietly in the sedan chair.

Chen Ji smiled secretly when he saw Wang Ao stop. He guessed that the princess was unlikely to know that Mantangjiao had returned to the Wang family, and the Wang family's crooked idea of ​​arranging a match for Mantangjiao to remarry should have been kept secret from the princess. The princess certainly didn't know that there was another wedding procession on the opposite side.

Thinking of this, Chen Ji got off his horse, walked east through the gate of Wang's house, walked past Wang Ao's horse, and went towards the princess's sedan chair.

Wang Ao had already guessed that Chen Ji had bad intentions, so he quickly got off his horse, but he didn't dare say a word, for fear that the princess would hear him. He just used his arms to stop Chen Ji's body and stared at him with a warning look.

In Chen Ji's eyes, Wang Ao was just a kid. He first grinned at Wang Ao, then shouted loudly: "The groom is here, bride, please get off the sedan!"

This loud shout attracted many passers-by, including the guests who arrived later. They were no longer in a hurry to enter the mansion, but stopped on the street to watch.

When Si Yao heard the voice in the sedan chair, she really thought that Wang Jing was able to get out of bed again, so she came to greet him in person. She stood up hurriedly and looked out of the sedan chair.

The four maids, Ruchun, Ruxia, Ruqiu and Rudong, who were accompanying the bridal sedan, first saw Chen Ji approaching, and then saw Si Yao sticking his head out. They were also confused and reported to Si Yao one after another: "Princess, it's not Prince Wang, it's Prince Chen!"

Si Yao was surprised to see Chen Ji wearing the groom's suit, thinking that something must have gone wrong. She panicked even more, stepped out of the bridal sedan, and yelled at Chen Ji, "Why is it you? Where did you take Prince Wang?"

Wang Ao realized the misunderstanding here and had to rush over to explain to Si Yao: "Princess, my family is having a double celebration today. Young Master Chen is here to marry my sister. My second brother is indeed ill and is waiting for the princess in the mansion..."

Si Yao did not wait for Wang Ao to finish his words before he retorted: "Nonsense! When did the Wang family have a daughter? Don't try to scare me!"

A servant of the Wang family hurried out and came to Chen Ji and whispered, "Mr. Chen, please go over there and greet Miss Man."

Chen Ji glanced at the direction the servant pointed and deliberately raised his voice to ask, "What's the matter? You're not picking up the bride through the front door, but through the back door instead?"

When Si Yao heard this, he became even more confused: "What back door? Who said to pick up the bride through the back door?"

As more and more people gathered around, the servants had no choice but to report back to the mansion and go to the auditorium to inform the mistress Xiao Rui: "The princess has gotten off the sedan chair, and there is chaos outside!"

Wang Dun and Zhou Yunniang were very puzzled when they heard this: "Didn't we tell the princess that my second brother was inside to meet the bridal sedan? Why is she coming down outside?"

The servant said, "It was all Master Chen's fault! He didn't go to the back door to pick us up, but instead made trouble at the front door!"

Wang Dun shook his head and sighed, accusing Zhou Yunniang: "I have said long ago that Chen Ji is a bad person. Instead of trying to persuade mother, you went along with her to talk about marriage?"

Zhou Yunniang didn't dare to say anything, Xiao Rui explained: "I was thinking that Ah Jiao has been in our family for eight years, so we should part ways amicably..."

Wang Dun was too lazy to listen to what Xiao Rui said, so he walked out to see what was going on.

Seeing this, Xiao Rui and Zhou Yunniang, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, had no choice but to follow him out.

Although the guests did not hear clearly what the three people said, they realized what was going on, and many of them followed them out out of the house out of curiosity.

When they came out, they saw that the princess was already red with anger, and Chen Ji was speaking proudly: "You and I are really destined to be together. Our first marriage was on the same day of the same month of the same year, and our second marriage was also on the same day of the same month of the same year!"

Wang Dun shouted, "Mr. Chen, how could there be such a shameless person like you in this world?"

Chen Ji looked at Wang Dun with a sly smile on his face and said, "If your mother and your wife hadn't condescended to invite me, how could I have the time to be so shameless in front of your door?"

Wang Dun looked down on Chen Ji and was unwilling to argue with him. He pointed forward and threatened again: "Are you going to leave or not? Leave now!"

"Let's go! Of course I have to go! But I'm here to pick up the bride. How can I leave without picking her up? You can't just grab some woman in a wedding dress and go, right?" Chen Ji still had a smile on his face, and after he said that, he glanced at Si Yao who was wearing a phoenix crown and bridal robe.

"You...I will kill you..." Si Yao was so furious that he wanted to strangle Chen Ji, but was stopped by the maids.

Xiao Rui hurriedly ordered someone to bring Tao Ye, who was wearing wedding clothes, from the back door to the front door, and pushed her in front of Chen Ji. He suppressed his anger and asked, "Mr. Chen, can we leave now?"

"Thank you, mother-in-law!" Chen Ji bowed to Xiao Rui, then turned to ask Tao Ye: "Madam, do you have anything else to say to your family?"

Tao Ye heard Chen Ji's hint and immediately pulled off her veil and shouted to Si Yao: "Princess, there is something important. Wang Jing has a scar on his butt that has not healed yet! Please clean it every day after you get married. Don't forget it!"

Si Yao yelled angrily: "Shut up!"

Chen Ji looked at Tao Ye in surprise and exclaimed loudly: "What a coincidence, the princess also has a birthmark in that position. It seems that the princess and Prince Consort Wang are really a match made in heaven!"

All the guests and passers-by present were shocked, but they did not dare to laugh in person.

Xiao Rui, Zhou Yunniang and others were all sweating coldly.

Wang Dun was so angry that sweat broke out on his forehead. He pointed at Chen Ji and Tao Ye and cursed: "Only women and villains are hard to raise! Get out of here!"

Tao Ye took Chen Ji's arm and said with a smile: "My dear, please forgive my family's rudeness!"

"Of course. They found me a well-educated and well-mannered wife. I cannot thank them enough!" Chen Ji also smiled.

"Husband..." Tao Ye's pronunciation was more intimate.

"My wife..." Chen Ji's eyes became more tender.

The two of them exchanged glances, returned hand in hand, rode on the same horse, and finally left the Wang family far away.

Si Yao glared at Chen Ji and Tao Ye who were walking away. For a moment, he was helpless against them and returned to the sedan chair angrily.

Seeing this, Wang Ao mounted his horse again and led the team into the Wang family’s gate.

Xiao Rui looked in the direction where the Chen family left and said to himself: "How could Gillian become like this?"

Zhou Yunniang at the side also echoed and sighed: "Yes! It's like he has become a different person!"
