The two groups of ceremonial musicians did not dare to delay. They quickly stood in formation and began to play gongs, drums, flutes, and suona. They were so happy that they could celebrate.
Han Yunxi raised her hand. Nanny Wang quickly came forward to help her. The bride had already gotten off the sedan. It would be her fault if she did not help her in front of everyone.
Thus, under the dumbstruck gazes of hundreds of people, Han Yunxi straightened her back and walked step by step up the steps of the Duke of Qin's estate. Her every step was especially elegant, as if all the splendor in the air was hers to claim, noble and inviolable.
This made many people forget that she was originally an ugly woman.
Who knew that when Han Yunxi stepped on the last step and just stood firm, a hidden dart suddenly flew from the side. It swept up her bridal veil and hit the ground.
"Ah … assassin! There's an assassin! "Nanny Wang screamed and ran away. She accidentally rolled down the high stone steps.
Several guards immediately flew out from both sides of the manor. They looked around but did not find the assassin. For a long time, there was no other movement except for the hidden dart.
Everyone was still in a panic. Han Yunxi was also scared. Her heart was beating fast. She knew how to detoxify, but she did not know martial arts. Just now, the hidden dart almost hit her head. So scary!
The leader of the guards walked over, picked up the bridal veil, checked the dart, and handed it to the person next to him.
"Miss Han, here." The leader personally handed the bridal veil over.
Han Yunxi patted her chest and calmed down. Then she turned around to take it. "Thank you."
Who knew that when she turned around, the leader of the guards suddenly widened his eyes. "Ah!" He screamed and hurriedly stepped back in fear.
The tumor was removed. Was she still ugly?
The leader of the guards' frightened reaction made Han Yunxi sad.
But if she was ugly, then so be it. In any case, she had always relied on her hands to make a living, not her face. With her back to the crowd, Han Yunxi calmly turned around and handed over the bridal veil. "Nanny Wang, it's all right. You can come up."
Who knew that when she turned around, the crowd behind her all sucked in a cold breath. Nanny Wang's screams were even louder than before. "You … you … how did you, ah …"
Han Yunxi did not know how devastatingly beautiful she was when she turned around. Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted, "Too beautiful! Are you really Han Yunxi? "
Beautiful? Before she could regain her senses, there was a commotion below.
"Didn't they say that Han Yunxi was an ugly girl? What's going on? "
"Rumors are harmful, Han Yunxi, you're even more beautiful?"
"Does His Highness Duke of Qin? Rumors can't be trusted! "
… …
For a moment, all sorts of voices rose and fell. Even the Han Family members were incredulous and suspected that Han Yunxi had been switched out. But even with half of her face covered, this person was the real Han Yunxi.
It could only be said that Han Yunxi's devastatingly beautiful features had been hidden away by that tumor for too long. Today, her beauty shocked the entire nation.
The clamor at the entrance spread to the main hall of the Duke of Qin's estate. Grand Concubine Yi and Murong Wanru were both stunned by the servant girl's report. They felt like they were sitting on pins and needles. The two of them sat side by side in the main hall, wishing they could go out and see for themselves.
By now, Nanny Wang had already covered Han Yunxi with her bridal veil again and helped her over the high threshold.
Just like that, the bride entered the doors. Everyone was still amazed by her beauty and even forgot about the bet.
In the crowd, a pretty, well-dressed woman was tugging at the man next to her before angrily turning around.
"Big bro, there's definitely something wrong with Han Yunxi's face! I snuck a peek at her before. She's so ugly that I wanted to throw up! "
The woman was none other than the third young Miss of Tianning's General Mu's estate, Mu Liuyue. The man next to her was Tianning Country's most famous Young General, Mu Qingwu.
He was a handsome man with strong facial lines and deep features. Even without his armor, he was still mighty and handsome. His bright, spirited eyes were filled with light and uprightness.
Just then, the hidden dart had been shot by Mu Liuyue. She was one of Tianning's Duke of Qin's die-hard admirers and disliked Han Yunxi as much as any other admirer. Originally, she wanted to humiliate Han Yunxi in front of everyone, but ended up helping her instead.
Mu Qingwu was annoyed by the noise and grabbed Mu Liuyue's wrist instead, his tone harsh. "You think this is a place for you to behave atrociously? Get out of here right now! "
He had no interest in this farce, but was attracted by the bride's courage and insight. He stopped to watch for a while, never expecting that there would be a tough one in the capital city full of spineless people. Moreover, it was a woman.
Mu Liuyue had long gotten used to her big brother's coarseness and grabbed his hand to act like a spoiled child. "Big bro! There's definitely something wrong with that woman. "
"Even if there's something wrong, it's none of your business. Go back!" Mu Qingwu ordered.
"We have nothing in common with you!" Mu Liuyue pursed her lips, too lazy to say anything more to him. She mused that she should find those good sisters of hers and have them think of a way to investigate. Maybe this Han Yunxi really was an impostor.
