Chapter 202 What? A gift for his ex-wife!
"Who is it? If your mouth isn't smooth, I'll have it cut off!"
"Princess, you are furious. It is the Princess Yongle's wedding, and the Emperor and all the officials have sent gifts. The Prince Consort asked you to check the gift list and not to send duplicate items."
"Asshole! He asked me to give a gift to his ex-wife? Is that bitch worthy? Cheng Rui, he is really a piece of shit. I wouldn't be so angry if he secretly gave it to me, but he dared to let me give it to him!"
"Princess, the prince consort doesn't have any good things to give away. I can only say that you are the mistress of the mansion and leave it to you. If it is a farewell, it is normal. The problem is that the person we are sending off now is..."
"Humph! It's not that I can't give her gifts, but she doesn't deserve good things. She's only married to a businessman. Why is it worthy of my father and all the officials to please her? It's just because of the Purple Flame Country.
A slut, I don't know where she got an identity from. It's been several years, and no one has taken her back to Zi Yan Kingdom. To put it bluntly, she may have just curryed favor with some prince of Zi Yan Kingdom so that she wouldn't have to die.
Otherwise, she would have been killed in prison. But! It’s just a wedding gift, I will definitely give her a good gift. "
"Princess, and the young lady asked you when you would like her to be made a princess."
"Oh! I don't have any children, why should I make that little bitch a princess? And she's the eldest and the heir? If I give birth to a daughter in the future, won't she be inferior to that little bitch? You're just dreaming, don't worry about her."
"Yes, princess."
Maid B replied that the princess had promised three years ago that when she married into the Cheng family, she would ask for the title of princess for Cheng Ziyu and send Cheng Ziheng to the Imperial College.
They were admitted to the Imperial College, but they were just piece of rotten wood and there was no hope for improvement. Cheng Ziheng and Cheng Ziyu were not cut out for study. They either skipped classes or pretended to be sick. They went to the Imperial College just to gild themselves.
Now Cheng Ziyu only wants to become a princess, but her princess may have forgotten or simply doesn't want to do it. It is possible that she just deceived them in order to marry their father.
Now people have already obtained it and are tired of it, otherwise in the past year or so, the princess has returned to her pre-marriage state.
In fact, the princess didn't love her husband at all. She just wanted to snatch her husband away from someone who was a hundred times more beautiful than her.
The princess just likes to steal other people's things. The only thing to blame is that Princess Yongle is too beautiful. If she was uglier, it might be better. No, being ugly is not okay either. The princess would also think that such an ugly person, with such a low status, is not worthy of such a man.
All in all, it was Princess Yongle's bad luck. But Maid B was very curious about what gift their princess would give to the ex-wife of the Prince Consort.
October 18
Princess Yongle's wedding
Zeng Qian'er returned to her parents' home, the Shangshu Mansion, ten days in advance to get married. The happiest person was Old Master Zeng. He had been very idle after retiring, and after his beloved daughter came back, he was busy every day for her marriage.
No matter how Zeng Zhongkai and his wife persuaded him to take a rest, he refused. Grandpa Zeng also kept urging his daughter to have a few babies as soon as possible, so as not to let the Zhou family be extinct, or else they would be too old to have children...
Zeng Qianer was angry and embarrassed. She hid whenever she saw her father coming. How was she old? Others said she looked like a woman in her twenties.
Huaizhi was obsessed with her and was very clingy. She almost couldn't stand him. Fortunately, the miracle doctor Xiaoyue found took good care of her body, otherwise she really couldn't stand Zhou Huaizhi.
The day Zhou Huaizhi had been waiting for finally came, but he knew that Qian'er had to go back to her parents' home to get married instead of staying in the princess's mansion just across the wall. He suddenly felt empty in his heart.
Thinking about her day and night, the bone-eating longing forced him to find something to do to pass the ten days.
All the officials have given gifts to the princess, so they will definitely come to the wedding banquet. He will have to prepare more food and wine. The thing he has the most is money, so he will definitely make their wedding luxurious and grand to match her status as a princess.
He knew that when Qian'er married Cheng Rui, the wedding was relatively simple. On the one hand, the Zeng family did not like Cheng Rui and had no mood to hold a wedding.
Secondly, Cheng Rui had no money. He was a poor scholar who couldn't even afford his tuition. If Qian'er hadn't given Cheng Rui some money to prepare for his wedding before she got married, the wedding would have been even more shabby.
Although he was unwilling to be an official, if Qian'er insisted that he do so, he would pick up his books again to take the imperial examination. Even if he failed, he would surely pass the imperial examination and become a Jinshi, and he could also be appointed as an official.
Before, in order to see Qian'er conveniently, he had to take a long detour to get to the place separated by a wall. But it was no problem for him, he just used his Qinggong to fly over.
But Qian'er couldn't do that. She didn't know martial arts, so she could only take a detour. She couldn't climb the ladder because it was too high and too dangerous. So in order to avoid being seen, he opened a small door.
Now that he was getting married, he had the legitimate reason to tear down the small door and make a big archway so that carriages could pass directly through. How convenient.
This way, there will no longer be any disagreements about where they will live after marriage.
Because it was a wedding, relatives, friends and officials normally came to the Shangshu Mansion for dinner. However, since Zeng Qian'er was the eldest princess of Zi Yan Kingdom and had a different status, the officials could only have lunch at the Shangshu Mansion.
The dinner went to the prince consort's house, but the prince consort was not an official, so she was not familiar with him. It was said that the prince consort was very much liked by the princess, so she had to get to know him even if she was not familiar with him.
Once is new, twice is familiar! If you have a good relationship with the prince consort, it is equivalent to having a good relationship with the princess. If you can get some benefits from the princess, and then use them to please the emperor, you will have the best of both worlds. Why worry about not having a good life in the future?
Because she was getting married in the same city and her family was close, Zeng Qian'er did not go out early. Shangguan Yue and Chen Bianbian, as her relatives, also went there early to add makeup to Zeng Qian'er.
Zeng Qian'er wore a luxurious wedding dress that was specially designed by Shangguan Yue and Chen Bianbian and worked on day and night by dozens of embroiderers. It was elegant and graceful, showing the demeanor of a princess.
Chen Bianbian's eyes sparkled with envy. Alas! She would never have the chance to wear this ancient wedding dress in her life. It was so beautiful! Although the original owner had worn a wedding dress, she didn't want to get married at that time, so the wedding dress was prepared casually.
Moreover, the family was not well off at that time, and the original owner was only wearing an ordinary wedding dress.
As Chen Bian watched Shangguan Yue preparing Zeng Qianer's wedding dress, the envy in her heart faded. Xiaoyue had never been married in her previous life, so in this life, she really placed all her hopes on Xiaoyue.
Xiaoyue became her daughter. If she could see her wearing such a wedding dress and getting married in this life, it would make up for her regret.
"Mom, what's wrong? Your eyes are red? Are you feeling unwell?"
"No, I just have some feelings."
"Pregnant women are sentimental, really! You are envious of your elder sister wearing this beautiful wedding dress! Your belly is so big now, you can't wear it even if you want to.
Don't worry, when I was making your wedding dress, I designed another one. After you give birth to the baby, you can reunite with your father and we can celebrate together as a family."
"Really? Woohoo, Xiaoyue, you really understand me."
