There was a loud noise!
The wheelchair fell to the ground, and Ling Li also fell from it. The maids were so scared that they covered their eyes. Many kind-hearted onlookers also turned their heads and couldn't bear to see it.
Just at this moment —
A pair of seemingly delicate hands suddenly appeared and held Ling Li's waist tightly, making him kneel on the ground steadily. Maybe because of the big movement, the red veil slipped off. Su Li's beautiful face was immediately seen by everyone, which made them exclaim in amazement.
"What a beautiful girl!"
"Princess Li is really a beauty!"
"I really envy the Third Master of the Ling Family …"
There was a lot of discussion in the hall. In the blink of an eye, the scandal of Ling Li was overshadowed.
Ling Li stared at Su Li. It seemed that time was stagnant when they looked at each other.
"Wow …"
Another burst of exclamation pulled Ling Li back to reality. It turned out that the onlookers looked back and set off a small climax.
Qiu Meng saw the scene in the hall and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at Su Li more kindly than before and even a little more grateful.
Su Li's master was the imperial preceptor. Her cultivation was also among the best among many misses in Yunjing City. It was said that she had acquired the eighth hurdle. Although she had never seen Su Li's skills, if she only helped Ling Li to stabilize his body, the red veil on her head would not fall off.
This girl … did it on purpose to help Ling Li out of trouble!
Mrs. Gu looked more sincere with a faint smile on her face. She looked at Su Li very kindly and said, "It's a blessing of our Ling Family that you can help my grandson so unobtrusively. You are so considerate."
When Mammy Li picked up the red veil and covered Su Li's face again, the three bows could finally continue without any hindrance.
"Second bow to your parents!"
"Husband and wife bow to each other!"
"The ceremony is finished — send them to the bridal chamber!"
With the emcee's last words, Dongfang Rui and Ms. Gu both breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. The old and the young looked at each other for a moment and smiled. Both of them had unknown meanings.
Qiu Meng burst into tears. She leaned against Ling Ping, crying and laughing. She murmured, "Great, great … Li finally has a family. It's great!"
After Mammy Li led Su Li out of the main hall, the banquet began. The banquet spread from the courtyard of the main hall to both sides of the street outside the Ling Mansion, attracting a large number of ordinary people to come to the banquet. It could be said that on this day, because of the marriage between the Ling Mansion and the Lord Rui's Mansion, almost half of Yunjing City was lively.
Ling Li sat back in the wheelchair with the help of Ling Mo. As soon as he came out of the seats in the inner hall, he was surrounded by a group of young talents.
"Young Royal Prince, let me toast you!"
"Congratulations, Young Royal Prince, for winning the beauty!"
"Come, Young Royal Prince, today is your big day, so you can't refuse wine ah!"
Ling Li smiled and drank the wine without saying anything. Others thought he was really happy. Only Ling Mo, who was beside the wheelchair, knew that he was not as happy as he looked at the moment.
"Alright!"
"The young royal prince is indeed straightforward!"
"Here's another toast to you!"
Ling Li almost didn't refuse anyone. He sealed his cultivation, and soon he was drunk. His eyes were hazy. Ling Mo looked at him and wanted to help him drink. At this moment, there was a burst of hearty laughter outside the courtyard. "Hahaha, it's so lively …"
Many civil and military officials who were familiar with the voice immediately changed their expressions. They put down the wine and dishes in their hands, came to the gate, and knelt down.
"Welcome, Your Majesty!"
"Welcome, Your Majesty!!"
"Long live the Emperor!"
"…"
Dongfang Rui and others at the main table in the hall changed their expressions slightly. They immediately came out and happened to meet Dongfang Xiao who just came in from the gate.
Mrs. Gu narrowed her eyes slightly and returned to normal in an instant. She walked over with her crutch and was about to salute, saying, "Your Majesty."
Dongfang Xiao quickly held Mrs. Gu and smiled hypocritically, "You are so polite. I'm really flattered."
Mrs. Gu raised her eyebrows and pretended to sigh, "It's rare that Your Majesty can call me sister-in-law."
Dongfang Xiao became serious and said solemnly, "Eldest Brother, I will never forget your kindness in those years. Now you and I are old, and many people have passed away. If I don't get close to you, who else can I talk to? "
Dongfang Xiao's words seemed to be sincere, which made many guests feel sentimental. It turned out that the Emperor had such a relationship with the Ling Family. It was not easy for the Emperor to keep his original intention after so many years.
Mrs. Gu's expression was not very good at the moment. She could only force a smile and said, "Your Majesty, you are busy with state affairs. This time, you not only arrange a marriage for my grandson, but also attend the wedding banquet in person. I'm really honored. Please sit in the inner hall."
Dongfang Xiao squinted and nodded, "Okay."
Ling Ping followed at the end with a respectful look, but a cold light flashed in his eyes from time to time.
Dongfang Xiao really deserved to be the emperor for decades. He was eloquent, but he didn't come to pay homage to his grandfather in these years.
After a group of people entered the house, the courtyard became boisterous again, and it became more boisterous than before. Many people were talking about various things that the Ling Family fought for the Dahan Country in those years. Some people even whispered and talked about the secrets of those years.
"I heard that back then, His Majesty and Old General Ling became sworn brothers, and the two brothers worked together to conquer this great land. His Majesty originally had the status of a powerful family, and it was only because Old General Ling purposely gave way that the position of Emperor fell to His Majesty."
"Later, Old General Ling got married and established a career. Like father, like son. General Ling also made great achievements for the Dahan Country. Your Majesty promised the title of Lord of North to General Ling. Plus the legend of Mrs. Ling, General Ling's Mansion was respected …"
The old people chatted in private, but the young people still surrounded Ling Li to toast. At this moment, Ling Li was extremely drunk. If he didn't sit in a wheelchair and was accompanied by Ling Mo, he would have been lying on the table.
Among this group of people, the young man who made the most effort to toast saw this scene. He felt it was enough and made a gesture. Not long after, a young girl with a graceful figure leisurely walked over. Many young geniuses were stunned when they saw her.
Wasn't she … the miss of General Wu's Mansion, Wu Xiuxiu?
She was almost molested by Ling Li in those years. She should avoid the Ling Mansion. Why did she appear here?!
Ling Mo was shocked and felt that something was wrong. But it was too late for him to stop her.
Wu Xiuxiu was anxious to obey Dongfang Xiao's order. She showed a hint of bitterness on her face. Her soft words made many childes' hearts flutter. Although Wu Xiuxiu's appearance was not as good as that of Su Li, the fairy in the human world, her charm was not possessed by ordinary women.
"Childe Ling, I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect that you are going to get married."
Ling Li put down the glass and turned his head. There was a trace of doubt on his flushed face. He stammered, "Who … who … are you?"
As soon as he said this, people around immediately burst into laughter.
They thought that Wu Xiuxiu's appearance could make Ling Li, who was lustful, embarrassed. Unexpectedly, it was Wu Xiuxiu who was embarrassed instead of Ling Li.
"… You!"
Wu Xiuxiu was so angry that she wanted to leave. But when she thought of Dongfang Xiao's order, she had to bear it. She continued to test,
"Ling Li, don't you even know me? I've seen a lot of men like you, eating from the bowl while looking at the pot. If I'm willing to be your second wife, won't you agree? "
Even Wu Xiuxiu felt that her face was burning when she said such shameless words. If it weren't for her family, she wouldn't come here to say these disgusting words to this good-for-nothing!
Others didn't know what she was thinking. But after her words, more people gathered around to watch.
"Miss Wu thinks highly of herself. I didn't expect that she could say such words. It's really an eye-opener for me!"
"I think Miss Wu just comes to test Ling Li because of jealousy. She wants to make Princess Li embarrassed!"
"If Ling Li really covets her, then Princess Li … Tut-tut …"
"Ling Li is lustful. I don't think it's possible. Princess Li will be humiliated before they consummate their marriage …"
Wu Xiuxiu snorted and crossed her arms in front of her chest. She waited for Ling Li to show his embarrassment. She specially dressed up in order to seduce Ling Li. At this moment, Ling Li was drunk. Even if he was sober, he would have an impulse.
Ling Mo stood beside the wheelchair and was expressionless like a block of wood. He didn't mean to stop her at all. He had already seen the purpose of Wu Xiuxiu's coming. No matter whether there was someone behind her, what he wanted to know was whether Ling Li was sincere in this marriage.
If it was sincere, there was no flaw. Even if someone wanted to make a fuss about the marriage, there was no breakthrough. If not …
Thinking of this, Ling Mo smiled slightly.
Crack!
Ling Li suddenly stared. It seemed that his reverse scale was touched. His red face was full of anger. He directly smashed the wine glass in his hand. He pointed at Wu Xiuxiu's nose and scolded, "Where do you come from? Get out of here!"
The whole scene suddenly became quiet. No one expected that Ling Li would suddenly get angry. Wu Xiuxiu was even more stunned by the sudden scolding.
Before she responded, Ling Li suddenly retracted his hand and hammered his chest fiercely. He shouted, "I only love Su Li in my life and will only marry her! Since God allows me to marry her, I … I will never touch any other woman in my life. If I break this oath, I will be struck by lightning! You … you … who do you think you are? You can't even compare with Su Li! Do you want me to marry you? "
Wu Xiuxiu was at a loss for a moment. She didn't expect that Ling Li would react like this.
"Puff!"
"Ha-ha-ha …"
After a moment of silence, someone finally couldn't help laughing. Wu Xiuxiu's eyes suddenly turned red. She didn't remember Dongfang Xiao's order in her mind. She cried and ran all the way out of the Ling Mansion.
There was a smile on Ling Mo's indifferent face. He persuaded helplessly, "Master, you can't drink anymore. It's almost time. You have to consummate your marriage in the evening. Young Masters, please excuse me. "
