Chapter 188: Eternal Love, Happy New Year
In the end, Su Muxi did not agree to the Marquis's request, but only agreed to go back to the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion with her.
As a result, as soon as the two of them left the house, they saw Xiao Yunjin. At first they thought it was He Yuncheng, after all, Xiao Yunjin should be on his way to pick up the bride.
The person was Xiao Yunjin. He smiled and said, "I'm here to pick up my mother."
Su Muxi felt that Xiao Yunjin had tricked her, but she had already promised the Marquis's wife, so she had to go ahead anyway.
As a result, Xiao Yun led the way in front wearing his wedding gown, followed by the Marquis's carriage, and at the end was Princess Su Muxi's carriage. Four horses pulled the luxurious carriage majestically.
When they arrived at the Yong'an Marquis Mansion, Lin Jiaorui's sedan chair had also arrived, just on both sides of the Yong'an Marquis Mansion.
There were already many people watching the ceremony, and many people were curious about the situation. When this scene appeared, the people's eyes widened.
"Oh my god, this is the first time I've seen a groom pick up his ex-wife instead of his new bride."
"Am I blind? Why does that beautiful woman look so much like the Marquis' wife?"
"You are not mistaken, it is the Marquis's wife."
Xiao Yunjin put the bride's sedan aside and helped the marquis's wife out of the carriage.
Su Muxi saw this scene in the carriage and sneered in her heart, "You are so good, Xiao Yunjin, you even took advantage of the Marquis's wife, and she even came to me for your safety."
Su Muxi jumped off the carriage and was greeted by Xiao Yunjin. "Congratulations, Prince! Give me a gift with two fingers."
Su Muxi's gift was carefully prepared. She had someone carve a tombstone for Xiao Yunjin, which was engraved in relief. The person who did it was a master craftsman who was good at carving tombstones and had great skills.
The stone tablet was very heavy and required more than a dozen strong men to carry it. It was also covered with a red cloth.
Xiao Yunjin tore open the red cloth and saw eight big characters carved on it: forever together, a happy marriage for a hundred years, and a signature: Su Muxi, the sixteenth day of the winter month of the one hundred and thirty-fifth year of the Yun Dynasty.
"Wow! Princess is so brave."
"You deserve it, you really deserve it."
"They should be sent to this pair of dogs..."
Even when the people were talking, they spoke in low voices, and the muffled voices made it difficult to hear clearly, but they could not help but gasp and exclamation.
Xiao Yunjin smiled. "Thank you, Princess."
"You're welcome. The bride is waiting. Please come in, Prince!"
Su Muxi didn't mean to be so high-profile. She just did it for the emperor to see. After all, she was the one who begged for the imperial decree. The emperor was such a suspicious person. He definitely didn't believe her just because she said they wanted a divorce. She didn't expect the emperor to believe it. It was good to confuse everyone.
"Put away the gifts and put them in my yard." After giving the order, Xiao Yunjin went across to pick up the bride.
Lin Jiaorui almost tore the veil in the bridal sedan. She was filled with resentment and blamed Su Muxi for everything. She believed that it was Su Muxi who deceived the Marquis and forced Xiao Yunjin to pick her up.
She heard the maid's reminder, adjusted her veil, and waited for He Yuncheng to take her out of the sedan chair.
The red veil blocked the road in front of her. She could only see a little bit under the veil. There was a lot of noise around her, and all kinds of exclamations were heard. She finally smiled. He Yuncheng came to marry her. She was going to be the Crown Prince's wife, and in the future she would be the Marquis's wife, the Princess, or even the Queen.
Lin Jiaorui had such beautiful thoughts that she mistook all the exclamations from people other than the veil as envy.
It was not until she finished the ceremony and returned to her room that the maid cried and said that she had followed a servant to the ceremony.
"No, no," the little maid couldn't explain clearly, she only remembered shedding tears, "The Marquis's wife suddenly fainted, and the prince carried her to the backyard, and asked his servant to hold his coat and bow for him."
"Su Muxi, it must be you," Lin Jiaorui threw her veil in anger, "I will tear you into pieces."
Su Muxi was sitting on the side watching the ceremony, and was also surprised by Xiao Yunjin's action. She even felt a little sorry for this kid Cang Ying. It was not easy for him to hold the clothes and worship heaven and earth with Lin Jiaorui.
The goshawk was about to cry, why? Why was he always the one who got hurt? Thinking back to the past, he was the one who got married for his master with a messy face. I have never even touched a girl's hand.
This farce-like wedding came to an end.
When returning to the city, it was no surprise that he traveled with He Yuncheng, after all, they now lived on the same street.
"What do you think of my proposal last time, Princess?"
Su Muxi: "Don't consider not cooperating."
He Yuncheng was not annoyed, "Princess Anping, what do you think Xiao Yunjin meant by this?"
"You two are as one, how can I not guess?"
He Yuncheng smiled and said, "Can't the princess guess? Xiao Yunjin is venting his anger for you."
"Venting out your anger for me? In my opinion, that's not entirely true! He used your identity."
"Yes! He ruined my identity because he wanted to change it back. Princess, aren't you afraid?"
"What do I have to fear?" Su Muxi looked at He Yuncheng with interest. "Your Highness Prince Jin, what you need to do is to protect your identity and not let Xiao Yunjin take advantage of you."
The sinister look on He Yuncheng's face became more and more obvious. "Princess Anping, you don't know Xiao Yunjin at all. I'm waiting. One day, you will definitely cooperate with me."
"Prince Jin, please don't let your imagination run wild. That day will never come."
Su Muxi left her people and went into the princess's mansion. She called her second son over and whispered a few instructions to him.
She must carefully investigate what the Marquis's wife said today.
The Marquis’ wife said that Marquis Yong’an knew everything, so what kind of role did Marquis Yong’an play in this matter.
At that time, Marquis Yong'an had not yet inherited the title, and he was also a high-spirited young man. After he got married, he was suppressed by the emperor, and the third wife even said that she would send the marquis's wife to the palace to plead for him.
In the sensational marriage exchange back then, the other party was the emperor. Did Marquis Yong'an never think about exchanging her back?
If the emperor could replace the prince with a cat, why couldn't he replace the prince with a pair of sisters? Any palace banquet would do. No one would notice that the two people looked so similar.
Such a mistake is simply impossible. It has been going on for twenty years and it may even continue to be so.
Unless the emperor is unable to exchange two people, Marquis Yong'an will not let them go, or in other words, Marquis Yong'an was also the conspirator in the marriage exchange. He loves the marquis's wife and does not want to let her go.
Su Muxi seldom saw Marquis Yong'an and his wife together, but in the few times they did, she could see the love that Marquis Yong'an had for his wife.
If Yong'an Hou knew all these things and was involved in them, then what was he planning? What exactly was he going to do?
According to what the Marquis' wife said, the Marquis of Yong'an knew everything. He knew that Xiao Yunjin had swapped identities, and he knew and planned that Xiao Yunjin would marry her using He Yuncheng's identity. What was his purpose?
Su Muxi racked his brains but couldn't come to a conclusion. In the end, he could only focus on investigating Marquis Yong'an.
