The Cold-Hearted Princess Who Transmigrated Here

Chapter 102 Going to the church to get married

Day .

After a long wait, the moment to reap the rewards has finally arrived.

Wang Xijie's unpredictable high fever finally subsided completely, and his consciousness gradually returned to normal.

At this point, the marriage is roughly halfway complete.

During these five days, Wang Xiyue tirelessly treated her elder brother's wounds, barely getting any sleep, and regularly monitoring changes in his condition.

Dongfang Yu saw all of this and felt a pang of pain in his heart. Seeing Xiyue growing increasingly haggard and thin, he could only pray that nothing else would happen.

Her once slightly chubby face has become incredibly thin, and the plumpness that could be felt when gently pinched has vanished without a trace.

Her once standard oval face shape has evolved into a pointed, heart-shaped face. Although she has lost a lot of weight, it makes her look even more beautiful and charming.

During this period, the Prime Minister's residence was extremely busy. Through everyone's continuous efforts and repeated negotiations with the Ling family, an auspicious date for the bride to enter the family to bring good luck was finally determined.

Day .

The embroiderers in the Blue Robe Pavilion worked day and night, and finally finished making two exquisite wedding dresses and auspicious gowns.

When Wang Xiyue saw the wedding dress embroidered with gorgeous patterns, with fine stitches and bright, eye-catching colors, she couldn't help but admire it.

Seventh day.

The Prime Minister's residence went all out to prepare all the necessary items for the wedding ceremony.

Bright red lanterns hung high, and festive ribbons fluttered in the wind, immersing the entire mansion in a joyful and peaceful atmosphere.

Eighth day.

The decoration of the wedding room was also successfully completed.

The room was decorated with red double happiness characters symbolizing good fortune, and brand-new bedding was neatly folded on the carved bed.

A pair of exquisite candlesticks were placed beside the bed, and everything was so warm and beautiful.

ninth day.

The Prime Minister's residence specially dispatched a highly respected steward to personally pay a visit.

He brought not only the precious jewelry the bride would wear on her wedding day, but also the bright red wedding dress.

Furthermore, a full thousand taels of silver were presented as a betrothal gift, along with the priceless painting given to Ling Zhi, and a set of exquisite jewelry also presented to Madam Du, the mistress of Ling An.

Of course, he also secretly prepared three hundred taels of silver notes and a gold hairpin for Ling An's birth mother, Liu, and a complete set of high-quality writing brushes, ink, paper and inkstones for Ling An's younger brother, Ling Yun, to encourage him to study hard and achieve success in the imperial examinations in the future.

Finally, amidst the anticipation of everyone in the Prime Minister's residence, the crucial day arrived.

tenth day.

All preparations are complete, and a low-key yet grand wedding is about to begin.

It was early in the morning, just as the sky was getting light.

There were few pedestrians on the street, and the Prime Minister's sedan chair had already arrived at the main gate of the Ling residence.

Although Ling Zhi and Du Shi were unwilling, they still had to leave the room and show their faces out of politeness.

They hurried to the door, exchanged a few polite words with the four people who came to greet the bride, and then turned around and went back into the room.

After all, the daughter being married off this time was only being taken away as a concubine, so Lingzhi and Madam Du didn't really need to pay too much attention to her.

If it weren't for the fact that the other party was from the Prime Minister's residence, they probably wouldn't have bothered to deal with this brief appearance, or even bother to give it a second glance.

Although they share the same surname, Ling, the mansion where Ling Peng lived was completely different from Ling Zhi's courtyard.

As a marquis, Ling Peng's mansion occupied a vast area, complete with pavilions, terraces, rockeries, and flowing water, showcasing luxury and grandeur everywhere; in contrast, Ling Zhi's courtyard was no different from the residences of ordinary fifth-rank officials.

Moreover, the two properties are separated by a narrow street.

Their front and back doors face completely different directions, so unless they intend to visit each other, they would almost never meet even when they go out for walks.

Therefore, Lord Ling did not notice that the Prime Minister's residence had formed a connection with his elder brother's family right under his nose.

At this moment, in the newly decorated Jingyi Courtyard, Madam Liu is carefully helping her daughter put on her headdress.

Then he carefully adjusted his daughter's beautiful bright red wedding dress until it was perfectly in place.

The vibrant colors and the exquisite jewelry were enough to express the man's desire to marry her.

Looking at her beautiful daughter, Liu's eyes were filled with joy, and she said softly, "An'er, seeing that you have met such a man who truly cares about you, I am truly happy from the bottom of my heart!"

Ling An's beautiful eyes were now filled with glistening tears, like dewdrops rolling on lotus leaves in the morning.

She gently stretched out her arms and tenderly embraced her mother.

"Mother, I am so glad that I met him." Ling An's voice trembled slightly, filled with longing for a happy future and deep affection for her mother.

"Mother, you must take good care of yourself. Whenever I have free time, I will definitely bring him back to visit you." Ling An hugged her mother tightly, as if she wanted to keep this warmth in her heart forever.

Liu, standing to the side, forced back her tears and gently wiped away the tear stains from the corners of her eyes with her sleeve.

She carefully picked up the exquisite red veil from the table and gently covered her daughter's head with it.

Although the red veil covered Ling An's face, it could not hide the joy and excitement in her heart.

Immediately afterwards, Liu turned around and walked to the bedside, taking out a heavy and exquisite gold hairpin from under her pillow.

This gold hairpin is exquisitely crafted and inlaid with dazzling gemstones, making it clearly very valuable.

Liu carefully placed it into a thick cloth bag, then tiptoed away from her daughter and quietly put it into her daughter's dowry package.

Just as I finished doing all that, a loud shout suddenly came from outside the door: "The auspicious time has arrived!"

Upon hearing this shout, Ling An stood up, knelt down on both knees, and respectfully kowtowed three times to his mother.

With each kowtow, she seemed to pour all her gratitude and appreciation for her mother's years of nurturing into her actions.

After kowtowing, Ling An slowly stood up and leaned over to rest on her younger brother's strong back.

Although Lingyun was somewhat thin, she tried her best to carry her sister steadily on her back and walk step by step toward the bridal sedan chair at the door.

"Sister, don't worry! I've grown up now and I'll take good care of myself and Mom," the younger brother said as he walked, his tone firm and confident.

"And this brother-in-law seems like a nice person; he should treat you well. But if he bullies you, sister, don't be afraid, and remember to come back and tell me!"

"Even though I am penniless and have nothing now, as long as I pass the imperial examinations and make a name for myself in the future, I will definitely seek justice for my sister!"

Seeing her younger brother getting more and more excited as he spoke, Ling An smiled, reached out and gently stroked the back of his head, and said softly, "Sister believes that Xiaoyun will definitely achieve his wish! You will definitely become a remarkable person in the future!"

"My sister will take good care of herself, don't worry about me!"

"Take good care of Mother for your sister!"

"You must believe in your sister too. She will be very happy."

"If you and Mom encounter any difficulties, be sure to tell your sister or brother-in-law immediately, understand?"

Ling Yun nodded vigorously, "I know, sister, we'll all be alright."

The bride, dressed in her finest attire, entered the sedan chair and quickly disappeared at the end of the street.

Thanks to the secret healing medicine from the Prince Xian's mansion, as well as the rare and precious medicine brought out from Ling Peng's secret chamber.

On this day, with Wang Xiyue's reluctant consent, Wang Xijie was finally able to get up and move around without having to lie on the bed anymore. The wound on his back had completely scabbed over, and it would stop bleeding as long as he didn't deliberately tear it.

Originally, his sister and mother were still worried, but for Wang Xijie, whose wish was about to come true, he believed that he had fully recovered and could not feel any pain at all.

He felt perfectly fine, and he certainly wouldn't miss his wedding night with An'an tonight.

To ensure everything went smoothly, the people ultimately chosen to carry this important sedan chair were Wang Yi, Xuan Yi, Xuan Tian, ​​and Xiao Yun.

Because these four people were quite skilled, despite the long journey, the sedan chair arrived safely at the Prime Minister's residence in just half an hour.

As the sedan chair arrived at the main entrance, the two vermilion gates of the Prime Minister's residence slowly opened, ready to welcome the bride.

After the sedan chair had completely entered the mansion, the gate quietly closed again, making a dull and heavy sound.

Just then, a deafening sound of firecrackers suddenly rang out, enveloping the entire mansion in a festive and peaceful atmosphere.

As the sound of firecrackers gradually subsided, the sedan chair landed steadily in the garden outside the main hall.

Wang Xijie stood in the middle of the road, his heart pounding with excitement.

He carefully adjusted his clothes and hat once more, and after confirming that everything was neat and proper, he strode quickly toward the sedan chair with firm and powerful steps.

Arriving at the sedan chair, he gently lifted the curtain with his left hand, while simultaneously placing his right hand under the veil to ensure An'an could see him. He then softly said, "An'an, I'm here. Don't be afraid!"

Upon hearing that familiar, deep voice while sitting in the sedan chair, Ling An's eyes instantly welled up with tears, which nearly spilled over.

However, she forced herself not to cry, secretly relieved that he was alright.

Through the bright red silk veil, Ling An could vaguely see Wang Xijie's large, well-defined hands.

Somewhat incredulously, she reached out her hand and, without the slightest hesitation, placed it into that warm, broad palm, wanting to confirm that he was real.

At this moment, their hands were clasped tightly together, as if their hearts were also closely connected.

From this day forward, Ling An sincerely hopes that they can be husband and wife for life, united in heart and never separated.

At the same time, Wang Xiyue's clear and melodious laughter rang out, "Sister-in-law, it's been several days since I've seen you. Not only my brother, but I've missed you too!"

Zhuzhu was as excited as a happy little bird, laughing and jumping beside her sister.

She clapped her soft, chubby little hands incessantly, calling out loudly, "Sister-in-law, it's me, Zhuzhu! Do you remember me? I miss you so much!"

The soft, sweet voice echoed in the air, filling the entire scene with joy and warmth.

Upon hearing the two affectionate "sister-in-law" addresses, Ling An immediately felt a wave of embarrassment wash over her.

However, strangely enough, the tension that had made me feel so tense and almost suffocated while sitting in the sedan chair just now vanished at this moment.

Wang Xijie carefully helped An'an down from the sedan chair, holding her hand tightly the whole time, as if afraid that he might let go at any moment.

From outside the garden, he strictly followed etiquette, carefully leading her first across the brazier, which symbolized warding off evil and bringing prosperity, and then slowly into the spacious and bright main hall.

Just then, the butler's loud and solemn voice rang out at the perfect moment: "Bowing to Heaven and Earth!"

After uttering this shout, Ling An was suddenly overwhelmed with an indescribable sense of emotion.

Only now did she truly understand that no one in the Prime Minister's mansion had ever treated her as a concubine.
