Crown Prince's Eastern Palace.
Guests came and went in an endless stream, but the Crown Prince didn't greet them. Instead, he waited at the door for someone.
But in the end, he heard a voice. It was his Imperial Father who came.
All along, the Emperor was very amiable to the Crown Prince. But today, although he didn't say anything, the Crown Prince could feel the Emperor's dissatisfaction.
Since the Emperor is here, Gong Che must go in. He took one last look outside, a little worried. Why hasn't Mo 'er come yet?
Sensing his movement, Emperor Cheng stopped, "What's wrong?"
Gong Che didn't hide it and said directly, "Imperial Father, I don't know why Mo 'er hasn't come yet. Is she not feeling well?"
Emperor Cheng sneered.
"She won't come!"
Gong Che looked up and saw Emperor Cheng's cold and solemn eyes.
"Yuqi sent someone to ask for help, so I sent Mo 'er. It was an emergency, so I just set off and didn't have time to announce it."
Gong Che was shocked, "You said Mo 'er went to Yuqi?!"
He looked a little flustered, "But today is Son's wedding day, she … why didn't she stay for one more day?"
"It's your wedding, not Mo 'er's. Don't tell me you don't want to get married if she's not here?"
Emperor Cheng snorted. His words made Gong Che speechless. Gong Che calmed down and thought carefully. He guessed that something must have happened! Otherwise, he wouldn't be so eager to send her away!
Without waiting for him to react, Emperor Cheng went in first. Gong Che was still standing in the same place, thinking.
Could it be that Su Miaolan told Imperial Father the fact that he likes Mo 'er?
No, it's impossible. He kept a close eye on Su Miaolan and completely eliminated such a possibility. Then what's the reason that Imperial Father can't wait to send Mo 'er away, hide it from him, and show dissatisfaction with him?
On the streets, GongYimo was listening to the joyous sounds. It was a little surreal for her to be in the middle of it all.
When she married Gong Che, it wasn't lively at all, but she didn't care. She only thought that marrying him was enough.
On their wedding night, he said to her, "I will never let you down in this life."
When she heard about it, she was so happy that she couldn't control herself. Now that she thought about it, it was really like a faded old photo. It was so long ago that it seemed like it had happened in her previous life.
No, it was something that happened in his previous life.
At this moment, a group of children ran past her cheerfully. It turned out that the bridal sedan chair had arrived. The maids were throwing money and sugar. The children crowded around and played, making the banquet even livelier. The long red line was endless. It was exquisite and luxurious, and its momentum was vast. From this, it could be seen how much Su Miaolan was favored.
GongYimo, who was leading her horse, met the other party on a narrow path. She smiled faintly and stepped aside.
She was wearing a scarf, so no one could see her expression. Only GongYimo knew in her heart that she had completely let go of Gong Che. That was why she could be so calm.
The feelings from her previous life had long been extinguished by the flames of war. In the end, her hatred was only because she was unwilling to accept it. Those people were no longer her burden. If others didn't offend her, she wouldn't offend them. Other than Gong Dai, she had this principle for everyone.
The moment the guard of honor passed by GongYimo, Su Miaolan seemed to feel something. She lifted the veil and the curtains of the sedan chair and looked out. She saw GongYimo at a glance.
She frowned. She felt that the woman seemed to be GongYimo. But how could it be? GongYimo was going to see her marry the Crown Prince today!
Su Miaolan lowered the veil and smirked proudly. Later, the Crown Prince would personally come to the entrance of the palace to welcome the bride. As long as she got down from the sedan chair, she would be the Crown Princess!
Countless women would be envious and in awe of her. From now on, she would be the third most respected woman in the entire palace. Only she, Su Miaolan, could bear such a great honor!
What Gu Country's princess? Wouldn't she have to obediently call her sister-in-law in the future?
The auspicious hour was approaching. The Emperor was overseeing the Eastern Palace, so it was time for Gong Che to get up and receive the bride. Surrounded by the crowd, he was wearing a wedding robe. However, his expression was gloomy and his thoughts had long drifted away.
He thought about it and felt that he had been exposed. Otherwise, Imperial Father wouldn't have sent Mo'er away in such a hurry. Even if he found out that Gong Dai liked Mo'er, Imperial Father wouldn't have such a big reaction. Perhaps … Imperial Father knew everything?
If Imperial Father knew, then Mo'er would have left willingly. She must know that he hadn't let go of her and had followed the Emperor's arrangements …
The more Gong Che thought about it, the more frightened he became. The palace gates were right in front of him. He could even hear the joyous sounds coming from outside. The glaring red color coming from afar made his scalp tingle …
Beside him was the sound of compliments and laughter, but he couldn't hear a single word. He only stared at the wedding procession that was getting closer and closer. His heart suddenly ached!
Why wasn't the woman in the sedan chair Mo'er? Clearly, the one he wanted to marry the most, the only one he wanted to marry was Mo'er! But now, he could only marry another daughter. And Mo'er was likely to be forced to go to Yuqi because of his exposure!
This wasn't fair … Not fair!
When Gong Che arrived at the gate, Su Miaolan's guard of honor had just arrived. There were people everywhere. There were commoners watching the excitement, neatly dressed wedding procession, and imperial guards maintaining order. She wasn't there … She wasn't there …
Gong Che only felt that his heart was so stuffy as if it was going to split open. Even breathing felt a dull pain.
She was going to Yuqi. Once she found out about everything, he had no idea what she would think or how she would feel! He still wanted to stay here to get married?!
"Crown Prince, please take the bride out of the sedan chair!"
The matchmaker said loudly. The people behind her laughed and pushed Gong Che to the sedan chair. They even lifted the curtain of the sedan chair. He only needed to reach out.
Su Miaolan saw the red men's boots embroidered with golden dragons and was very shy. She raised her hand so that he could help her out of the sedan chair.
But Gong Che didn't move at all! He stared at her hand as if he was looking at another person.
Seeing the crown prince in a daze, the matchmaker couldn't help but smile. She said, "Your Highness, are you stunned? This is your Crown Princess. She's the real one. Why don't you take her out and take her back to the palace? "
Su Miaolan was even more shy. Her raised hand hung in the air, waiting for Gong Che to reach out.
No … This isn't my Crown Princess! My Crown Princess shouldn't be her!
Out of the blue, Gong Che thought to himself. Then, he suddenly turned around and pointed his spear at a tall steed beside the palanquin. He leaped onto the steed and galloped out of the city!
Before Su Miaolan could come back to her senses, there was an earth-shattering clamor outside. Everyone was stunned, so much so that her raised hand was numb, and no one helped her out.
What happened? Why did the person in front of her suddenly leave? Where was the crown prince?
At this time, the matchmaker suddenly exclaimed, "The crown prince ran away from the wedding?!"
