Chapter 88
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and the wedding of Mu Wenxuan and Gu Anxian came as scheduled.
Although Prince Yu's Mansion has no real power, it is still a royal family, and Prime Minister Gu is a high-ranking minister in the court. Naturally, all the powerful and aristocratic families in the imperial capital will come to congratulate him.
Mu Cang and Yan Li also received wedding invitations.
Just because time was short, everything in the wedding etiquette was kept simple.
Gu Anxian, who was dressed in a wedding dress, sat in a sedan chair and got married to Prince Yu's Mansion with the beating of gongs and drums. There was an endless procession of seeing off her bride. The generous dowry showed the Prime Minister's wife's love for her daughter - even though the scandal had already spread to everyone.
You know, but the blood relationship can't be cut off.
In order to prevent her daughter from being looked down upon by Prince Yu's palace in the future, the Prime Minister's wife still prepared a large dowry for her, hoping that she could live a more comfortable and happy life for the rest of her life.
I don’t know if it was a sign that today’s wedding was not expected. The weather was unfavorable, and it started to rain lightly. Many people watching on both sides of the street held umbrellas. From a distance, the onlookers actually
It's much more spectacular than the send-off procession.
At the same time, some whispers inevitably reached the eardrums.
"The eldest daughter of the Gu family has been well-known throughout her life, but she ended up marrying a free-wheeling young master from Prince Yu's palace. It's really sad to say that."
"What is there to be sad about? She didn't do it herself? The legitimate daughter who is unattainable in the eyes of outsiders, but she hangs out with men in private. She is so shameless that she has completely disgraced her father."
"No matter how bad Prince Yu's Mansion is, it is still the residence of the princes of the royal family. The Prime Minister's Mansion is a minister after all. If the daughter of a minister marries into the royal family, doesn't it count as an insult to her?"
"For ordinary women, it is certainly not humiliating to marry into the royal family, but the direct daughter of the Gu family is extremely talented and arrogant. How can she be willing to marry the mediocre playboy Mu Wenxuan?"
"Besides, it was the sixth prince who the emperor granted her marriage to in the first place. No matter how bad the sixth prince is, he is still better than the eldest son of Prince Yu."
"That's true. But I heard that Miss Gu has always admired the Ninth Prince, and even vowed not to marry anyone other than the Ninth Prince... Do you think that the Ninth Prince knew that she was such a person early on, so he was so enthusiastic about her?
The face has not responded?"
Every word of unscrupulous talk pierced Gu Anxian's heart like a sharp sword. The knife penetrated into her bones, causing her to bleed and turn pale.
Gu Anxian sat stiffly in the sedan chair, clenching her hands tightly, biting her lower lip with her teeth, and hatred surged up in her heart one after another.
The bright makeup couldn't hide the haggard look on her face. Thinking back to the despair and helplessness in the past three days, and the humiliation of wishing to die immediately, Gu Anxian always felt so regretful that she wished she could turn back time immediately.
She should have killed Mu Wenxuan directly that day, and she should not have put herself in such a situation. Her pride made her unbearable to live in the eyes of others pointing fingers day after day, let alone having to talk to Mu Wenxuan.
Such wastes live together for a lifetime.
She felt that her life had lost all hope and would no longer have its former glory.
It was like suddenly having a nightmare.
Gu Anxian still can't figure out why Mu Wenxuan framed her like this... Was it because of Yan Li?
This strategy was obviously supposed to be used on Yan Li, so why did she bear all this in the end?
Why?
The sedan arrived at the gate of Prince Yu's Mansion, and after kicking the sedan door, Mu Wenxuan handed her a piece of red silk from outside the sedan.
Gu Anxian stared at his extended hand, as if staring at something dirty. For a moment, she closed her eyes, forced herself to take the red silk, stood up and walked out.
Under the complex and varied looks of many guests, the ceremony of worshiping was completed step by step.
It was not until the end of the worship service that Hununxun was sent to the bridal chamber, and when Mu Wenxuan arrived in a wedding dress but with a sick look on his face, Gu Anxian had the opportunity to ask the question in her heart: "Why?"
She stared at the man in front of her who had sent her to hell, her voice was like ice, and she was filled with hatred, "Why did you frame me?"
"What did Madam say?" Mu Wenxuan used a wedding scale to lift her hijab, with a pale face that was still injured, "Those who plot against others will always plot against others. Madam should be able to guess it."
Gu Anxian was startled, and the color drained from her face: "Is it that bitch Yan Li?"
Mentioning Yan Li, Mu Wenxuan's eyes quickly flashed with hatred. He took a deep breath and said, "I have no choice but to do this. I hope Madam won't blame me."
"Why?" Gu Anxian's eyes were split, and she slapped him hard on the face: "Mu Wenxuan, you have ruined my life! I hate you! I hate you!"
Mu Wenxuan was aroused by her slap, and slapped him back with a backhand. The force was so strong that Gu Anxian could hardly bear it. She fell down on the bed with a thud, her ears buzzing, and she didn't react for a long time.
"Gu Anxian, do you really think you are some kind of chaste and martyr woman!" Mu Wenxuan's eyes were sarcastic and he sneered again and again, "I tell you, whether you hate me or look down on me, since you have married into Prince Yu's palace today, you will be mine from now on.
Wife, just accept your fate!"
After saying this, he turned around and left the new house without looking back.
It was deathly quiet in the room.
Xi Niang and the maids who were driven out stood tremblingly outside. Without instructions, they neither dared to leave nor come in. They could only wait outside with their heads lowered.
Gu Anxian fell on the bed blankly, half of her cheeks were swollen. She grabbed the quilt, despair, resentment, grievance, pain and other emotions intertwined together. She finally couldn't help but burst into tears!
As soon as Mu Wenxuan stepped out of the room, an attendant presented a dark wood brocade box: "Young Master, Princess Nanyang sent this to you. She said she wanted to hand it over to the young master."
Mu Wenxuan stretched out his hand hurriedly: "Bring it here."
"yes."
After taking the brocade box, Mu Wenxuan opened it and took a look. There was a pill lying on the velvet. He looked around, closed the brocade box and turned back to the new house.
The table was lit by red candles, with wine cups, tea, and melon and fruit snacks.
Mu Wenxuan didn't have time to pay attention to Gu Anxian who was crying bitterly. He poured himself a glass of water, took the medicine from the lacquered wooden box and stuffed it into his mouth, drank it with a cup of tea, and then slowly breathed out.
The vital part is still aching.
Mu Wenxuan didn't believe what Yan Li said before, so he specially tried it with the maid, but when there was no response, he had to believe that she had really poisoned him.
After taking this antidote, it is best to recover as before, otherwise he will definitely make that poisonous woman Yan Li look good.
"Stop crying! Isn't it bad luck to cry on the big day?" Mu Wenxuan turned to look at Gu Anxian who was curled up on the bed. Thinking that the other party was the prime minister's daughter after all, he couldn't argue with her too much, so he softened his tone and said,
Chapter completed!
