His Majesty Ling Lai's wedding was to be held a week later. Time was very short. There was no time for the two parties to contact each other. This was unimaginable for ordinary people. But in the eyes of the royal family, marriage was nothing more than a straightforward exchange of interests.
As for His Majesty Ling Lai, her marriage involved huge interests from the very beginning. Even before she chose Muto, she had a fierce negotiation with the other party's interests.
It was all for the sake of obtaining more bargaining chips.
This week, Xiao Zheng first went to the Tokyo office to take a look. It was called guidance work, but in fact, he was so bored that he had nothing to do.
Then, he met with several business tycoons. They talked about the intention of cooperation. Of course, the so-called work talk was basically a dream. They didn't do anything too valuable.
At the dinner table. Success or failure was just a matter of nodding or shaking his head. There was no need to talk for a whole night.
At least for Xiao Zheng's current working model, as long as it didn't involve too much capital. He basically listened to the suggestions of his subordinates and then quickly made a decision.
This week passed just like that.
His Majesty Ling Lai's wedding was about to be held.
The location was very scientific. It was to be held in the palace.
There were also many invited guests, including celebrities from all walks of life in Tokyo. Originally, the media hoped to have a grand live broadcast to show the grace of the Mikado. But it was directly rejected by His Majesty Ling Lai.
How could the outside world see such a private thing as marriage?
Of course, as for what His Majesty Ling Lai thought in private, it was unknown.
In short, when Xiao Zheng appeared at the wedding. He just casually picked up a glass of wine and then sat in the corner lazily, waiting for the wedding ceremony to begin.
He vaguely felt that something big would happen today.
It could even be said that with the experience of Shang Yao's wedding. Xiao Zheng was not anxious at all. He didn't believe that His Majesty Ling Lai would give up without a fight.
That was not His Majesty Ling Lai's style.
After half of the wine, there were more and more guests. The emcee also went on stage to liven up the atmosphere. All the lights and dance were in place, accompanied by music. The mellow voice of the emcee rang out slowly.
"Thank you all for attending tonight's grand wedding. You should know —"
After the emcee chattered for a long time, the groom finally appeared.
Today, Wu Teng was wearing the latest suit that he had rushed to make. He looked energetic and in high spirits. He raised his head and waved, greeting the guests below the stage. Then, he came to the emcee's side.
"Bridegroom. I would like to ask you a question on behalf of the masses. "The emcee then handed the microphone to Muto. "If I may ask, when did you fall in love with His Majesty Ling Lai?"
"Would it be too fake if I said that I was born?" Muto said half-jokingly.
The master of the ceremony said in an exaggerated manner, "Looks like this is a marriage from a previous life."
After the joke, the emcee went through the pre-arranged process. Then, His Majesty Ling Lai, who everyone had been waiting for, made a dazzling appearance.
Wearing her wedding dress, she slowly walked to the stage.
Without too many fancy performances, the newlyweds soon stood on the stage. They were being scrutinized by everyone below the stage.
Xiao Zheng refilled his glass and calmly looked at the two people on the stage. For some reason, he felt a bit nervous. He couldn't tell what it was.
But very quickly, his thoughts were interrupted by the emcee's loud and clear voice.
Everything was normal at the wedding. The chaos that many people were worried about didn't happen. So normal that even Xiao Zheng was a bit surprised.
Could it be — — His Majesty Ling Lai didn't plan to do anything to this wedding?
Or — — she already accepted her fate?
Xiao Zheng wryly smiled, still unable to understand what Ling Lai was trying to do.
After the not-so-grand wedding ceremony, the newlyweds changed their clothes and came down to toast. Xiao Zheng sat in a corner and slowly drank, but his expression was a bit serious.
The longer it took, with Xiao Zheng's understanding of His Majesty Ling Lai, the more serious the things she might do.
Therefore, as the wedding progressed, Xiao Zheng's mood gradually became tense.
"Boss Xiao, why are you hiding in a corner and drinking alone?" Muto walked over slowly.
At this moment, His Majesty Ling Lai was chatting with the elders of the royal family.
What a familiar scene.
What a helpless scene.
Didn't this scene also happen at Shang Yao's wedding?
At this moment, it actually happened again.
Xiao Zheng smiled and didn't refuse Muto's kindness. He just raised his glass and said, "I don't have many friends here. What else can I do but drink alone?"
"I'll accompany you." Muto smiled, but there was a bit of frivolity in his eyes.
He didn't drink too much. The smile on his face was very calm.
He didn't even have a strong intention to show off when he came over. He just wanted to understand His Majesty Ling Lai through Xiao Zheng.
Among the people Muto knew, Xiao Zheng was probably the one who understood His Majesty Ling Lai the most.
Even Prince Miyamoto didn't dare to guarantee that he understood His Majesty Ling Lai's heart.
Therefore, in Muto's eyes, Xiao Zheng was still a valuable person.
Xiao Zheng took a sip of the wine and said with a smile, "That couldn't be better."
After that, the two clinked their glasses and took a sip. Muto continued, "Boss Xiao, you absolutely didn't expect that my wedding with His Majesty would progress so fast, did you?"
"Indeed, I didn't expect it." Xiao Zheng nodded slightly.
The first meeting between the two happened a week ago. At that time, Xiao Zheng had even coldly chased Muto out of the lounge. But now, he openly became the husband of His Majesty Ling Lai.
The change of identity was indeed beyond the limit of Xiao Zheng's imagination.
"It's not just Boss Xiao who didn't expect it. Even I didn't expect it to be so fast. "Muto raised his head and glanced at His Majesty Ling Lai not far away. "Speaking of which, this is only the fifth time I met His Majesty Ling Lai. I don't even know what kind of person His Majesty Ling Lai is. What he likes, what he hates. What he likes, or what he likes. "
After a pause, Muto smiled slightly self-deprecatingly. "I've embarrassed myself in front of Boss Xiao."
Xiao Zheng waved his hand and said, "This is probably the saddest part of a political marriage."
"Saddest?"
Muto suddenly changed the topic and asked, "Boss Xiao, in your eyes, is our marriage really sad?"
"I don't think so!" Muto said resolutely. "I love His Majesty. There's no doubt about it! I'm even willing to give up my life for His Majesty! "
"So, Boss Xiao, please pay attention to your words," Muto said slowly. "It doesn't matter if it's just me hearing it. But if someone with ulterior motives hears it. They won't let it go. "
