Early the next morning, the entrance of the Duke of Qin's residence was packed with people. Han Yunxi definitely didn't know that there were at least thirty big bookmakers inside and outside the palace betting on whether she would be able to enter the Duke of Qin's residence today. There were thousands of people betting on whether she would be able to enter the Duke of Qin's residence today.
The joyous music hadn't started, but the hubbub of voices was already lively enough.
Han Yunxi didn't even have to worry about oversleeping and being woken up by the noise. She secretly glanced at the sky. There was still some time before the appointed time. It was just enough time for her to wake up and take care of the medicine on her face.
A small malignant tumor had met a top detoxifier like her. One night was enough to destroy the corpse and all traces.
Han Yunxi tore off the gauze and cleaned up the herbs. Her fingertips gently caressed her face. The malignant tumor was now smooth and smooth, delicate and warm.
It was a pity that she didn't have a mirror. Otherwise, Han Yunxi would be able to see her current appearance. However, she thought that even if she wasn't beautiful, without the malignant tumor, she wouldn't be an ugly girl anymore, right?
She took out some golden needles from the detoxification system and hid them in her sleeves. She also took out some poison powder for self-defense. After sorting out the trash, she temporarily stored it in the detoxification system. Everything was clean and tidy. Even if someone smelled the herbs, they wouldn't notice anything strange.
Covering the bridal veil, Han Yunxi sat upright in the sedan chair and closed her eyes to rest, waiting for the auspicious time to arrive.
As time passed, more and more people gathered. Even though it was the second day of the wedding, the streets of the capital were still empty. Even members of the Han family disguised themselves and mixed in with the crowd to see what was going on.
Finally, the auspicious time arrived!
"Creak …"
Following the sound of the Duke of Qin's residence's main door opening, the noisy entrance immediately quieted down. No one dared to make a sound.
The Duke of Qin's residence didn't act shamelessly and openly opened the main door. However, the groom didn't come out. There wasn't even a person to escort the bride. Only the gatekeeper, Old Liu, walked out and stood by the door.
What … was the meaning of this?
In any case, the groom should at least kick the sedan chair door before the bride can get off, right?
This situation caused the originally quiet entrance to fall into a dead silence. Everyone stared at the bridal sedan at the same time. Whether it was those who bet that the bride would enter the door or those who bet that the bride would not enter the door, they were all very nervous. They did not know what would happen next.
A few members of the Han Family, who were mingling among them, couldn't help but curse Han Yunxi in their hearts. Although marrying into the Duke of Qin's household was climbing up the social ladder, she shouldn't have humiliated herself like this!
Nanny Wang hid a sneer in her eyes. She didn't say anything to make the situation awkward and waited for the auspicious time to pass.
But who would have thought that suddenly with a 'bang', the sedan chair door was kicked open from the inside. Han Yunxi was wearing a phoenix coronet, a red wedding gown, and a red wedding veil over her head. Natural and unrestrained she stepped out of the sedan chair.
She was not tall. She had been malnourished for a long time and was thin. Her wedding dress did not fit her, but she straightened her back and held her head high. When she stood like this, she had a strength of character that made people unable to take their eyes off her.
"It's the auspicious time, why isn't the joyous music blowing?" She asked loudly.
As soon as he said this, everyone came back to their senses and understood what had just happened.
God, the bride unexpectedly kicked the door and got out of the sedan chair. How could this happen? This was against the rules!
"You're too shameless. You actually came down by yourself. You can't get married, so you forced yourself to come to the door. You're too cheap!"
Suddenly, someone in the crowd cursed loudly.
The surrounding people echoed. Cheap, shameless, and even the word 'prostitute' was used.
Han Yunxi was also a person, a woman. She also felt that she was very shameless. But what else could she do? Was she trapped in the sedan chair and waited for the next auspicious time? Could she wait?
The Emperor was just angry with the Duke of Qin, so he ordered him to marry a wife. If this matter really got out of hand, what could the Emperor do to the Duke of Qin? In the end, all kinds of mistakes would fall on her. If she died, the engagement would naturally be canceled.
A touch of bitterness flashed through her heart. Han Yunxi pulled herself together. Survival was the king's way.
In the midst of the cursing, Han Yunxi asked loudly, "This should be done by the Duke of Qin, but he was too busy to come, so I could only do it for him. Are you saying that my cheap behavior was caused by the Duke of Qin? "
When these words came out, the entire crowd immediately exploded.
"Han Yunxi, you're inverting right and wrong, slandering people! The Duke of Qin doesn't want to marry you! "
"That's right, do you really think the Duke of Qin wants to marry you? Haven't you looked in the mirror since you were young? Don't you know what kind of bird you look like? "
Han Yunxi stopped and turned to face the source of the voice. Her body was thin and weak, but her voice was full of confidence, "The Empress Dowager decreed the marriage, and the Emperor ordered the wedding to be held this month. You said that the Duke of Qin doesn't want to marry me. Then isn't the Duke of Qin going against the Emperor's orders? Who said that? Step forward now! "
When her voice fell, the entire crowd fell silent. Those people were so frightened that their faces turned green. They were flabbergasted and couldn't say another word. The surrounding people also didn't dare to talk about it. Who would dare to slander the Duke of Qin?
Everyone shut up and it was quiet. Han Yunxi took a deep breath to encourage herself. She proudly shouted at the top of her voice, "Joy, play!"
