Xiao Ting had a very comfortable day, but the others were not so good.
Let's talk about the first reaction of everyone in the Xiao Mansion when they found out that the bride was missing, it was to look for someone.
The people in the whole Xiao's mansion seemed to be crazy, and even the aunts and girls were anxious, throwing brocade handkerchiefs around and directing.
Even the treetops on the roof were sent up to investigate.
But the sound of blowing, blowing and beating has already sounded, indicating that there is still a quarter of an hour before the sedan chair will arrive.
Everyone still didn't find Xiao Ting's figure.
Xiao Zhan was sweating profusely, and wanted to send someone out to find her good girl, but was stopped by the old lady.
"Stop, you murderous, what are you doing?"
Mrs. Xiao threw her cane heavily on the ground with a serious face.
"Mother..." Xiao Zhan turned around and said anxiously: "Ting'er is missing, she must have been snatched by some thief, and my son wants to get her back."
The eldest madam was also anxiously pacing back and forth, and said in a voice of support: "Mother, just let the master go, maybe there is still time."
The old lady stared back at her, and said to Xiao Zhan: "Those people are still unconscious until now, so you really can't see that it was all done by your precious woman?"
"What?"
"You bastard, your good girl ran away from marriage, the old man made it clear enough!"
"this… "
"Mother, what should I do?" Xiao Ting hurriedly stepped forward to grab the sleeve of the eldest lady, her face full of nervousness.
The eldest lady winked at her, Xiao Mei immediately came to the old lady's side and said: "Grandmother, don't be angry, Fourth Younger Sister must have some difficulties."
"The reason?" The old lady said angrily, "She has been perverse since she was a child, and she is different from others. When she grows up, she becomes even more ignorant, and everything depends on her own temper."
After hearing what the old lady said, Xiao Zhan knew that he was too nervous, but he didn't want to hear bad things about the good girl, so he chimed in and said, "Mother, Ting'er is just playful."
"Playful?" The old lady was annoyed, "Why did I give birth to such a worthless son like you?"
Xiao Zhan stared at the sky speechlessly, what happened to him
"Don't you know that the marriage between Ting'er and the Ninth Prince involves the happiness of Meier and the others, and now that your precious daughter is messing around, you still protect her?"
Xiao Zhan stopped talking in embarrassment.
"Mom, what should I do now?"
The eldest lady was anxious to death, the conversation between the Ninth Prince and the old lady involved a lot.
If the old lady agrees to marry Xiao Ting to him, the Ninth Prince will protect his Xiao family, and this time the eldest prince will choose a concubine, and several daughters of the Xiao family will be eligible to participate in the election.
Although it's just a qualification, it still makes the girls inexplicably happy, after all, their current identities are too embarrassing.
They are not even counted as noble daughters. They are not even qualified to watch the selection of concubines by the eldest prince, let alone participate.
So, the old lady agreed to the matter almost without thinking about it. As for whether Xiao Ting agreed or not, she didn't care at all.
In her opinion, Xiao Ting was a girl who was married before, and now she remarries, and she is the same person. It is the best choice for Xiao Ting and herself.
However, none of them thought that Xiao Ting would choose to escape marriage.
"Now, that's the only way to do it."
The old lady thought for a while before she came up with a solution.
Soon the sedan chair arrived outside Xiao's residence. Today's Xiao's house was crowded with people, much more lively than the first time Xiao Ting got married.
There is no other reason, the Nine Princes' Mansion was generous, and spread the red carpet all the way from the Nine Princes' Mansion to the front of Xiao's house across several streets.
There are petals fluttering along the way, which is very dreamy.
Countless girls stared at her with envy, and they all said that Xiao Ting had bad luck.
Then look at the man who walked by step by step, he was dressed in a red robe, making him very festive.
The red streamer is flying with the wind, very elegant.
There was a faint smile on that slightly pale face, no longer a spring breeze, but a smile from the heart.
He stepped on the red carpet alone, his footsteps were powerful but light as dust.
He was burdened with singleness, and his eyes were only fixed on the front, as if there was only something left in front of him in this world, completely ignoring everyone and the hustle and bustle of the outside world.
Behind him, there is a long guard of honor, with a huge ostentation.
Soon, they arrived at the gate of the Xiao family, and the people of the Xiao family had already helped the bride out.
In front of the sedan chair, the Ninth Prince personally walked over and stretched out his hand to the bride.
The old lady smiled kindly, and put the bride's hand between the palms of the Ninth Prince.
The moment his hands were lightly touched, the Ninth Prince's eyes changed slightly, and then he dropped his hands, turned around, and waved to open the car curtain.
The bride's hand fell to nothing, and she seemed to be taken aback for a moment.
The old lady squeezed her hand, and then asked the eldest lady to send her to the sedan chair.
Far away, the team goes away.
Only then did the Da Furen climb up the steps nervously, came to the old madam, and asked: "Mother, if we do this, will something serious happen?"
The old lady glared at her, it was really not enough for success, but more than failure.
"Do you have a better way?"
The eldest lady shook her head.
"What can happen, don't scare yourself all day long." The old lady nodded, turned around and went back to the house, and ordered the door to be closed.
The Nine Princes' Mansion was very lively, all the ministers had arrived, raised their glasses to congratulate each other, even the emperor showed up, and the queen empress also followed and sent her blessings.
This time, although the emperor was not the officiant, the marriage was still unprecedentedly grand.
It wasn't until nightfall that the crescent moon in the sky rose high into the sky, casting a little bit of light, and the banquets in the Nine Princes' Mansion gradually dispersed.
But Butler Mu had already had everything prepared, changed the clothes for the Ninth Prince, and went forward to ask for instructions on whether to go to the princess.
Unexpectedly, the Ninth Prince nodded and said: "You all go to work, I will go there by myself."
"Yes." Butler Mu's old face burst into a smile, and his master finally got the hang of it.
This is the second time I've been married, so don't still have intercourse with other girls.
What does this spread like.
What's more, Butler Mu could see that this time, the master really liked the princess, so he spent time and energy arranging all this.
Not long after, the Ninth Prince changed out of his wedding robe and came against the wind wearing a navy blue robe.
First, he knocked on the door, and a maid came forward and opened his mouth.
After the Ninth Prince came in, he scanned the people in the room and said, "Go down first!"
"Yes, the servants are retiring." These people were all brought from the Xiao Mansion.
Hearing the words, everyone went out and guarded the door.
On the big red wedding bed, everything was laid out neatly and neatly folded.
In the middle, the bride is wearing a hijab, sitting upright, with only half of her buttocks on the edge of the bed.
Really like a little daughter-in-law.
The Ninth Prince stood not far away, stared at her for a while, but did not step forward, and said, "You can go back."
"..."
The bride did not move.
"The king is talking to you, don't you understand?"
The bride remained unmoved.
A smile appeared on the corner of the Ninth Prince's lips, and then he stretched out his hand to flick to the side, and the bride's hijab fell to the side.
After the red hijab slid down, a charming little face was revealed.
That little face was full of surprise and uneasiness, but more of it was amazement.
It was Xiao Mei.
"My lord."
She called out sweetly and got up to greet her.
"Why you, where is Xiao Ting?"
"Fourth sister, she, she's gone."
Xiao Mei bluntly said that she did not lie to the Ninth Prince, after all, this kind of thing can be hidden for a while, but it cannot be hidden forever.
She remembered the instructions of her mother and grandmother, and boldly told the ninth prince what her grandmother meant.
After the old lady knew that Xiao Ting had left, she thought of this way to get married instead.
A girl from the Xiao family will marry the Ninth Prince today so as not to break their alliance.
And Xiao Mei volunteered to marry her instead.
"This king knows, you can go back."
Xiao Mei asked back, "It's so late, and you still let a girl go home?"
Ninth Prince frowned and didn't say much.
In fact, the old lady's arrangement is very simple, but very effective.
What Xiao Ting thought was that if news of her escape from marriage spread today, then she would lose face to the Ninth Prince, and the marriage would be over.
But she made thousands of calculations, and she didn't expect that there were two masters here.
It hit it off.
"My king will ask someone to arrange a room for you immediately."
Before the Ninth Prince finished speaking, he turned around and walked out.
Xiao Ting's expression seemed angry or resentful, she had never seen such a puzzled person.
"My lord..."
She didn't believe it anymore, the rumored Ninth Prince was as indifferent as a fellow servant, with the appearance of a banished immortal.
If it wasn't for his poor health, he would have had many wives and concubines and many children.
But even so, the women who wanted to marry him had already lined up outside the city gate.
But the Ninth Prince explicitly refused, and he didn't even sell the emperor's face. He only married two concubines under his leadership.
Nothing else, not even a side concubine, it's not that they didn't want to get close to him, but they didn't make it.
The world knows very little about him.
Xiao Mei naturally also thought about it before. The reason why she didn't take it seriously before was because the Ninth Prince's health was not good, and she might die at some point, but now it's different.
He is the emperor's most trusted brother, possesses peerless martial arts, and has unparalleled love, so he is really a good match.
Those who really want wealth, power and power, run amok in the empire, and no one dares to mess with it.
It is said that those princes also respected him very much.
Xiao Mei, as her name suggests, looks extremely charming, with the same style.
Otherwise, Concubine Xiao would not have taken a fancy to her at the beginning, and she would have been promised to the third prince to be his concubine. It can be seen that even Concubine Xiao recognized her beauty.
At this moment, she called out in a gentle voice, and she walked forward gracefully, towards the Ninth Prince.
"My lord, since my sister has left, it must be that she doesn't want to marry you. The concubine married to the palace on behalf of my sister. Everyone in Xiao's mansion knows about this. Now that you let the concubine leave, what will the concubine do in the future?"
Xiao Mei's voice was like weeping, as if it contained endless sadness and a lot of helplessness.
The Ninth Prince's footsteps stopped, and a scent wafted over, seeing that Xiao Mei's body was about to stick to the Ninth Prince's.
Only then did he say, "Since you don't want to be a human being, then don't be a human being."
After finishing speaking, the Ninth Prince shook his sleeves and strode away.
Only Xiao Mei was left standing there with a stunned expression on her face, she couldn't believe her ears.
