How was the bride supposed to perform the ceremony when the groom wasn't present? Receiving Grand Concubine Yi's orders, Nanny Wang was sent straight to the bridal chamber.
"Is she really that pretty?" Grand Concubine Yi asked doubtfully.
"Esteemed imperial concubine, this servant saw it with my own eyes. It's absolutely true! I don't know how those rumors spread, but they turned such a beauty into an ugly one! "
"Impossible!" Grand Concubine Yi sat up straight. "I saw her when she was young. There's a big scar on the right side of her face!"
"Esteemed imperial concubine, you'll see it when the bride comes to pay her respects tomorrow. How could this servant dare to deceive you? The Han Family's medical skills are exceptional, perhaps they've cured her," Nanny Wang could only explain.
Grand Concubine Yi waved her hand impatiently and tipped her a few coins before dismissing her.
"Mufei, this is great news. It's good that she's beautiful. Otherwise, our Duke of Qin's estate would lose all face if we let her in today. Although the empress dowager forced it on big brother, it's good that she doesn't lose face for us," Murong Wanru said joyfully.
Grand Concubine Yi had been gratified by Han Yunxi's beauty, but the words' forced by the empress dowager 'made her unhappy again. Cold, she said, "The empress dowager forced her great benefactor's woman onto my son. If this isn't humiliation, then what is? What's the use of being beautiful? "
Murong Wanru sighed helplessly. "Aye, if her mother hadn't saved the empress dowager back then, now …"
Murong Wanru didn't finish, but even an idiot knew that the current emperor's fate would be different if she hadn't.
Han Yunxi's mother had saved the empress dowager's life and changed the fate of an entire generation.
"Alright, alright. I don't care for that position. I'm satisfied with Feiye. You can withdraw as well," Grand Concubine Yi rubbed her brows as she spoke.
"Yes, Wanru has spoken too much." Murong Wanru obediently withdrew, heading for the Duke of Qin's Hibiscus Courtyard as soon as she left. But she stopped at the door.
She was very clear that this was Long Fei Ye's private quarters. He hated it when others entered as they wished, even his adopted sister.
But now, Han Yunxi was living there as the Princess Consort.
Thinking of this, Murong Wanru couldn't help but clench her fists. She thought that as long as Long Fei Ye came back, Han Yunxi would definitely be kicked out.
Han Yunxi didn't know that the Hibiscus Courtyard was a special place. At this moment, she was sitting on the bed. After waiting for a long time and seeing that no one had come, she boldly lifted the bridal veil and stood up to stretch. She even took off the heavy phoenix coronet. For a moment, she felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders and she felt much more relaxed.
The first thing she wanted to do was to look at herself in the mirror. She really didn't know what she looked like to be able to make those people outside exaggerate to such an extent. She also didn't know which vicious person had tried to kill her with a hidden dart. She didn't expect that she would be stunned.
That vicious bastard must be feeling very depressed right now, right? Han Yunxi was in a good mood and casually sat down in front of the mirror. This time, even she was stunned.
The face in the mirror was similar to her original appearance, but her skin, face shape, and facial features were all much better than her previous appearance. The original body's beauty combined with Han Yunxi's own charm was truly a combination of both inside and out. She was beautiful beyond compare!
Han Yunxi lightly stroked the right side of her face. There was no trace of the original scar left, as if it had never existed.
She thought that this face could at least be considered worthy of the Duke of Qin. That guy still hadn't shown himself, so who knew what he looked like?
She stood up and walked around, discovering that this room was unusually large. The bedroom wasn't a part of this room. There was no door, and it was separated by heavy hanging curtains. Beyond the hanging curtains, there was an even larger space. On the right was the indoor hot spring, and on the left was the study.
In front of her was a deep and wide hallway with two rows of tall columns and heavy hanging curtains that led directly to the main door. To be exact, this wasn't a bedroom, but a bedroom.
"How extravagant!" Han Yunxi walked around, but when she came back, her legs felt sore.
Didn't all large families have many attendants? This room was so big, but she didn't see a single person. She couldn't even find a single person to ask. It really was strange.
Han Yunxi sat back on the couch, wondering if the groom would come back tonight.
