But the time now did not allow her to think too much, as the matchmaker had already supported her arm.

Gu Lingyue stood up and was helped out of the sedan chair by the matchmaker and walked towards the palace. The maid Xinghua followed with a serious look on her face, but she was getting anxious at this moment.

How did this idiot wake up so quickly? Didn't Taohua drug her? Could it be that the drug wasn't enough, so she woke up so quickly?

What should I do? I hope she doesn't find out too soon.

As they walked along, apart from some noise at the gate of the palace, the palace was extremely quiet, without any wedding atmosphere at all.

Gu Lingyue didn't mind, and was supported by Matchmaker all the way to the main hall of Prince Jing's Mansion.

At this time, the matchmaker smiled and shouted: "The auspicious time has arrived, it's time to get married!"

Then, Gu Lingyue was brought to the center of the main hall by the matchmaker.

She did sense a few auras here, but no one spoke. She thought they must be servants of the palace.

The world is a fickle place. Who would be willing to curry favor with a prince who is a living dead?

As soon as Gu Lingyue stood still, she heard a few "cluck, cluck, cluck" sounds of chickens.

She curled her lips. It seemed that Prince Jing's Mansion was not satisfied with this arranged marriage, so they brought a chicken to humiliate the bride.

Prince Jing was unconscious. I don’t know who had the power to ask the servants in Prince Jing’s mansion to bring out a chicken.

Gu Lingyue laughed at herself, she often heard people say "marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog." This time, she really was marrying a chicken.

At this time, inside the Zizhuxuan of Prince Jing's Mansion.

Yun Hao, the personal bodyguard of Prince Jing Longshang, was throwing a towel to wipe his body.

Originally, Long Shang should have been in the bridal chamber today, but because he was unconscious and the person he married was the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Yun Hao and others were afraid of any accidents, so they did not carry him to the bridal chamber.

At this time, a man in red said angrily to the unconscious Long Shang on the bed: "Brother, I asked the housekeeper to find a rooster to go to the wedding with your new princess. Do you mind?"

Long Shang was unconscious at this time, so how could he answer him?

Then, he said to himself again: "You shouldn't mind. You have no feelings for women, let alone a straw bag."

At this moment, Long Shang's eyelashes moved and his fingers on the bed also moved.

The man in red didn't notice his change at all, and continued to talk to himself, "That old Gu Shuo is really bold. The emperor clearly promised you his youngest daughter in marriage, but he replaced her with that idiot girl. If I hadn't sneaked into the Gu Mansion, I wouldn't have discovered the truth.

It’s really infuriating. I just want to get a chicken to worship and embarrass him…”

At this time, Yun Hao, who had thrown a towel aside and walked to the bed to wipe Long Shang's hands, saw Long Shang's hands moving.

He shouted excitedly: "Ye... Master Ye... The master seems to have woken up!"

The man in red was stunned for a moment, then asked in disbelief, "What did you say?"

"Just now I saw the master's hand moving."

As soon as Yun Hao finished speaking, Long Shang's eyelashes moved again.

"Look! Look! The master's eyelashes are moving too."

"Move aside, let me take a look." The man in red hurried forward and said.

At this time, Long Shang felt that he was in chaos, and there was a voice constantly buzzing in his ears.

This gave him a severe headache. He frowned slightly and tried hard to open his eyes.

"Senior brother's eyes really moved. Quick, call Mr. Qiu to come and take a look." The man in red shouted excitedly.

Yun Hao ran out before he could finish his words.

At this time, Long Shang's eyes slowly opened.

There was a hint of confusion in his eyes. When he saw a familiar face in front of him, he said in a hoarse voice: "Xin~Yu?"

"Yes, it's me, senior brother. You finally woke up, that's great." There were tears of excitement in Ye Xinyu's happy eyes.

His senior brother finally woke up, and it seemed that this wedding was the right thing to do.

His senior brother has not woken up since he was poisoned and fell into a coma at the border half a year ago.

If the emperor had not invited Mr. Qiu from the Medicine Valley, he probably would not be alive today.

"Ptah, pah, pah." Ye Xinyu spat a few times subconsciously.

How could he say that his senior brother was dead? His senior brother must have lived a long life.

"Water." Long Shang said in a hoarse voice again.

Ye Xinyu quickly poured a cup of tea and handed it to Long Shang.

When Long Shang supported himself with his hands and prepared to sit up, he found that his legs had lost feeling and he could not move at all.

Long Shang’s brows furrowed even deeper, and his expression looked a little ugly.

Seeing this, Ye Xinyu quickly put the teacup on the bedside table, helped Long Shang up, and then handed him the water.

After Long Shang finished drinking the water, Ye Xinyu took it, put the teacup on the table, and prepared to help Long Shang lie down.

"Let me sit for a while." After drinking the water, Long Shang's voice was not so hoarse anymore.

Ye Xinyu quickly picked up the pillow behind Long Shang and propped it up behind him, then helped him lean against the headboard. He looked at Long Shang with a worried look on his face and said, "Brother, are you feeling unwell?"

"Legs." Long Shang stared at his legs under the quilt and said, "I seem to have lost all feeling in my legs."

"This..." Ye Xinyu was dumbfounded and almost cried out of anxiety, "How could this happen?"

At this moment, Yun Hao came in with Old Qiu, and also came Wang An, the steward of Prince Jing's Mansion.

When Wang An saw that his prince had really woken up, he was so excited that tears came to his eyes.

When Ye Xinyu saw Elder Qiu and the others coming in, he cried out anxiously with a mournful face, "Elder Qiu, please come over and take a look at my brother. Why is his leg numb?"

When Elder Qiu saw that Long Shang had really woken up, he walked towards Long Shang's bed and said, "Don't worry, let me take a look."

Yun Hao and Wang An, who were following behind him, looked at Long Shang with concern upon hearing this.

Long Shang said to Mr. Qiu who came up to him, “Sorry to bother you, old man.”

He recognized Mr. Qiu from Yaogu.

"Your Highness is polite. This is what I should do."

He was originally invited by Emperor Tianqi to treat Prince Jing, and it was his job to treat Prince Jing.

However, although he found out that Prince Jing was poisoned by a Gu, he had no way to remove the Gu.

Elder Qiu placed his hand on Long Shang's wrist pulse. After a cup of tea, he sighed and said, "Forgive my incompetence. I can only suppress the poison temporarily, but I can't help His Majesty remove it.

If the prince wants to recover completely, he has to find the person who poisoned the poison and get the mother poison. Otherwise, if the poisonous insect wakes up again, the consequences will be..."

At the end of his speech, Mr. Qiu couldn't bear to continue.

If this goes on any longer, the prince will lose his mind and become someone else's puppet.

The reason why the poison has not completely taken effect is that, on the one hand, I have suppressed the poison for Prince Jing, and the most important reason is that Prince Jing has profound skills, which forced the poison to his legs at that time.

This is also why he lost feeling in his legs.

Long Shang smiled bitterly and said calmly, "Thank you, Mr. Qiu, for telling me."

He knew that the person who put the poison on him would not be so easy to find, otherwise he would not have been unconscious for so long.

Upon hearing this, Ye Xinyu and the others looked dejected.

Ever since his master found out that his senior brother was infected with the mother-child poison, he went to look for the person who controlled the mother poison, and Yun Yi also took people to look for someone who could detoxify the poison. So far, there has been no progress, and no one knows when that person will be found.

Seeing that everyone was in a heavy mood, Elder Qiu changed the subject and said, "Your Highness has woken up on the day of his wedding. Congratulations, I am here to congratulate Your Highness."

Ye Xinyu and Yun Hao were so happy that Long Shang woke up that they forgot about this matter. Now, after being reminded by Old Qiu, they remembered that their senior brother/master didn’t know that he was getting married today, and the most infuriating thing was that the other party was a fool.

Upon hearing this, Long Shang, who was in deep thought, looked up at Ye Xinyu and Yun Hao with a puzzled look.

He was getting married today? Who was he marrying? How come he didn't know when he had a fiancée?

When Ye Xinyu saw his senior brother looking at him, he could no longer hold back, so he blurted out the whole story about Emperor Tianqi arranging a marriage between his senior brother and Prince Xing, and the Gu family's marriage exchange.

After he finished speaking, he stared at Long Shang angrily and said, "Brother, I will go to the palace now and tell the emperor about your awakening and the exchange of marriages with the Gu family. The emperor will definitely make the decision for you.

We don't want any of the talented ladies in the capital, or any of the fools. Now that you've woken up, there's no need for a marriage, and all those women are rushing to marry you."

As he said that, Ye Xinyu turned around and was about to leave when he was stopped by Long Shang.

"Who did you say was going to marry me?" Long Shang asked again uncertainly.

"It's the stupid eldest daughter of the Gu family—Gu Lingyue!" Ye Xinyu stopped and said angrily.

Hearing that it was Gu Lingyue, Long Shang's mind once again emerged the time when he was eighteen years old and entered the palace to assassinate the queen for the first time but failed. He was hunted by the imperial guards and finally fled to a ruined temple to hide. He was seriously injured at the time and was bandaged by a little girl in the ruined temple.

He remembers asking the little girl, 'Aren't you scared?'

The little girl actually said, "What are you afraid of? This is in my dream, and I have the final say."

He thought the little girl's words were incoherent at the time, but considering that she had saved him at the time, he wanted to repay the little girl in the future, so he asked her name. The name she said at the time was - Gu Lingyue.

Finally, he returned to Beijing as the emperor's lost son. After sending people to inquire, he found out that the eldest daughter of the prime minister's mansion was called Gu Lingyue. However, not only was she a fool, she also loved Prince Xing. In the end, he no longer paid attention to her.

What he didn't expect was that his father would actually marry him to her sister, nor did he expect that she would let someone else swap brides for her and marry him?

"Don't go yet." Long Shang said in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, Ye Xinyu was at a loss as to what his senior brother's attitude was.

"Don't announce my awakening to anyone beforehand. Just go to the palace and tell my father tomorrow."

After saying this, he looked at Mr. Qiu standing beside him.

Elder Qiu understood Long Shang's intention and said with a smile, "I will leave tomorrow to try to find a way to remove the Gu from the prince's body besides finding the host of the mother Gu."

"Thank you, Mr. Qiu." Long Shang said gratefully.

"Your Highness, you're welcome." After saying that, seeing that he was not needed here for the time being, Old Qiu said goodbye to Long Shang.

"Uncle Wang, please see Mr. Qiu off on my behalf."

"Yes."

After the butler sent Elder Qiu out, Long Shang looked at Ye Xinyu with a cold face and said, "What did you say you were holding to go to the wedding ceremony on my behalf?"

Hearing that his senior brother used the term "this king" to refer to himself, Ye Xinyu knew that his senior brother was angry.

Considering that his senior brother didn't let him go to the emperor to explain things clearly, he wondered if his senior brother liked that stupid girl?

Thinking of this, Ye Xinyu felt guilty.

It’s over. The ceremony must have ended by now, right?

He chuckled and said nonchalantly, "I didn't say anything. You heard me wrong. Brother, I remembered there's something I forgot to do. I'll be out for a while and will be back soon."

After saying that, he left in a hurry without waiting for Long Shang's answer, and almost tripped when he was about to leave.
