Chapter 788 The ceremony is completed
Xiao Tingshan's eyes turned red as he watched this scene. He was speechless for a long time. He only felt a tightness in his chest and an indescribable anger and humiliation.
He clenched his teeth, afraid that he would lose control in the next breath.
Why is this happening?
Ever since he learned about his marriage, he thought about it for a long time and only made up his mind not long ago.
This time, the route of the kidnapping was carefully calculated, and Wenren Zong led people to arrange and deploy the troops.
Although there are not many assassins coming at the moment, they are all experts whom he has hired at a high price. How could they all be defeated in such a short time!
Xiao Tingshan just felt that it was strange. After all, Xie Jingchi was just a weak civil official!
Even if his father had sent people to guard him, he and his group of masters would not have returned empty-handed.
What's more, how did Xie Jingchi predict this?
Could it be that it was really impossible for him and Shen Shuyi to be together?
Xiao Tingshan felt indescribably unwilling, and he didn't know when he developed this obsession.
It was obvious that he didn't take her seriously at all in the beginning!

"Miss, everything has been resolved, don't worry." Jinzhu comforted Shen Shuyi happily, feeling satisfied.
No wonder Lord Xie has been able to sit in his current position and is so loved by His Majesty.
This Lord Xie is not just good-looking. Although he is not good at martial arts, he is a thoughtful person.
Look at these assassins who came out of nowhere. Not only were they beaten to a pulp, but the wedding procession on their side also remained intact.
Not bad, really good!
Shen Shuyi was indeed surprised. If it was an assassination attempt, then they must have made thorough preparations. How could it be resolved so quickly?
However, since they were on the street now, Shen Shuyi did not ask any more questions and just sat back in the sedan chair with peace of mind.
There was music and dancing all the way, it was so lively.
The sedan chair didn't stop until it stopped in front of Xie's house. Then Xie Jingchi got off the horse and walked towards the sedan door.
As soon as Shen Shuyi stood up, a slender and clear hand supported her.
Shen Shuyi was in a trance for a moment. His fingers were slightly cold, not warm, but gave people a rare feeling of comfort.
"Watch your step." Xie Jingchi reminded.
Shen Shuyi smiled and walked into Xie's house with him.
At this moment, the door to the Xie Mansion was wide open, and guests were constantly coming and going. Although there was no one in the Xie family, Xie Jingchi was favored enough.
It is a rare happy event for such a young minister close to the emperor, so naturally all smart people would come and take part in it.
In addition, because Xie Jingchi had no elders, His Majesty sent Prime Minister Qin and Lady Chen to take his place. In addition, Prince Duan, Prince Rui and several other princes also attended the event, which can be said to be a great honor for him.
Not long after, Shen Shuyi and Xie Jingchi arrived at the main hall together.
The two seats on the main seat were empty, while Prime Minister Qin, Lady Chen and others sat on the left and right sides.
Not only the court officials and royal relatives came, but also Old Master Xiao came, and several princes came to congratulate him.
Although Concubine Xiang did not add any makeup to Shen Shuyi that day, she secretly gave her ten shops.
It can be said that once the marriage was completed, Shen Shuyi's wallet became several times fatter.
In order to avoid being spotted by too many people and being spied on by those with ulterior motives, Jiuchou, Jiang Huai, Shi Qifeng and others did not hold the banquet.
Shen Shuyi planned to take Xie Jingchi to their residence the next day to get together with them and have some fun.
"The auspicious time has arrived, let's welcome the newlyweds~!"
"Worship heaven and earth!"
"Two thanks to the high hall!"
"Husband and wife bow to each other~!"
"Send her to the bridal chamber~the ceremony is complete!" Li Yun spoke loudly and presided over the wedding personally.
After Shen Shuyi was sent to the bridal chamber, Qin Xin whispered, "Miss, Fu Guang just came to report that Master Xie had someone prepare food for you. You can eat something first if you are hungry."
Shen Shuyi thought about it, but finally didn't move.
After all, she had eaten in the morning so she wasn't really hungry, and since Xie Jingchi was so attentive, she naturally hoped that everything would go smoothly.
Shen Shuyi lifted the veil and looked around the room.
This is a room with three entrances, the innermost one is her bedroom, and the one outside is her study.
The outermost room is the dining room, which is also a place to meet guests and sit.
Shen Shuyi had never thought that someone like him would design the study and bedroom next to each other, leaving only an archway between the two rooms.
There were many books on the antique display cabinet that covered the entire wall, and the painting of Zhong Kui catching ghosts that she had given him was hung by him opposite the desk.
However, what she didn't expect was that Xie Jingchi had prepared two desks in the study.
Could it be that he was planning to handle official business here as well?
Shen Shuyi looked around again and found the bedroom to be much more spacious and quieter.
Shen Shuyi opened a window and saw a dense bamboo forest not far away. There was a faint scent of grass wafting in, bringing a refreshing coolness and full of vitality.
"It's really beautiful. If you get tired of staying in the house, you can go for a walk in the woods." Yuping couldn't help but speak.
Shen Shuyi smiled, turned around and looked at other people.
The dressing table must have been newly made. The large and small boxes on it were particularly beautifully made, and there was a brand new bronze mirror that was surprisingly bright.
Shen Shuyi looked carefully and saw that he had prepared a lot of women's accessories, including all kinds of cosmetics.
His things only took up a corner. Shen Shuyi picked up the box on top and raised his eyebrows when he saw it.
It was the 'hand-carved' ebony hairpin she gave him.
He obviously cherishes it, so he put it here, but such importance makes Shen Shuyi feel guilty.
After all, she bought ten hairpins at once.
But at that time, she never thought that she would marry Xie Jingchi one day.
"Jinzhu, go back and pick out a good piece of jade. White or lavender will do, or red will be fine too." Shen Shuyi said.
"Miss, what do you want to carve? How big do you want it?"
Shen Shuyi thought for a moment and said, "I want to carve a hairpin, but I don't know if it will work."
"I understand. I will look for it later." Jinzhu said with a smile.
Shen Shuyi walked around the room, getting a clear idea of the layout and arrangement of each place, and quickly adapted to it.
The room was burning with her favorite cool fragrance, which made her feel that it was no different from when she was at the Shen family.
However, that incense was specially mixed by my uncle, and I don’t know where he got it from.
Shen Shuyi read for a while until it got dark and he heard footsteps outside.
Jinzhu ran in with a smile on her face: "Miss, thank you for coming back!"
Shen Shuyi immediately put the book aside and put the red veil back on her head.
It was earlier than she thought. After all, there was no one in the Xie family, and most of those who came were powerful and influential people. It was all up to him to entertain people, so she thought he would be back very late.
Soon, the door was pushed open from the outside, and Xie Jingchi held his breath and walked in quietly.
Until he saw her sitting upright on the edge of the bed, he couldn't help but laugh, and felt touched.
Given her personality, she would not follow these rules.
Now I'm waiting for him here, I guess I'm taking his feelings into consideration.
