Chapter 116 Three people traveling together
Chapter 116 Three people traveling together
Mu Tangxi followed behind his father with his head slightly lowered, and wrote down the details of his father's conversations with other senior officials, as well as their close relationships.
Know yourself and the enemy, a hundred battles will never end.
This is the content from Sun Tzu's Art of War that Dong Zhu had finally found.
As for her father's idea of introducing her to the third prince just now, Mu Tangxi understood it very well. After all, the eldest prince and the second prince both had wives, and the third prince was the only one who had no one by his side.
Well... in this case, there is really no one else around the Third Prince except his cousin!
Mu Tangxi felt that the Third Prince no longer liked women, and even the servants around him were all men.
If you think in this way, the possibility of the third prince inheriting the throne decreases again.
Mu Tangxi glanced at the third prince out of the corner of her eye and saw that he had a smile on his face, but his eyes were fixed on the door. It was obvious that he was waiting for his cousin.
She sighed in her heart that the third prince and her cousin had such a good relationship.
But soon she didn't have time to pay attention to the third prince out of the corner of her eye.
There was a noise at the door. Mu Tangxi and his father stepped aside and saw an unforgettable scene.
three people!
My cousin was holding two pieces of red silk in his hands, one in his left hand and one in his right hand, and on the other side of the red silk were Miss An, who was wearing a bright red wedding dress, and Miss Li, who was wearing pink.
Mu Tangxi's expression froze, his amber eyes staring blankly. Who arranged this?
It was already strange to marry a wife and a concubine on the same day, but now they had to be married at the same time?!
The general's wife sat in the upper seat, watching the scene with satisfaction, completely ignoring her son's stiff expression.
Mu Tangxi shifted his gaze with difficulty and looked at his father. He saw the surprise that flashed across his face, but his father was knowledgeable and quickly came to his senses.
Then she looked at the Third Prince, only to see that the smile on his face could no longer be maintained and he stood there at a loss as to what to do.
At this moment, the conversations of the guests stopped abruptly, and all their eyes turned to the three people in the hall, their eyes full of surprise and confusion.
Some people even wanted to ask, but were covered their mouths by relatives beside them, who gestured for them to look at the general's wife in front of the hall. She didn't seem surprised at all, so it was obviously arranged by her!
The general's wife took the lead in looking down and asked the servant who was mixed in the crowd to shout, "Congratulations to Master Xu on his great happiness!"
Others also reacted and followed suit to congratulate Young Master Xu.
Mu Tangxi's attention gradually shifted to her cousin and Miss An.
Seo Kwang-soo was visibly stiff, and the smile on his lips seemed to be forced. There was no trace of the joy and high spirits of a happy day on his face.
And Miss An...
Mu Tangxi couldn't see Miss An's expression, but he could tell from the way Miss An's hands were pulling the red silk so hard that Miss An was already at the limit of her patience.
Sure enough, I came to the right place this time!
This kind of excitement is so rare!
Then, Mu Tangxi witnessed the fantastic scene of three people getting married together.
"Worship heaven and earth!"
The three of them turned around and bowed to heaven and earth. Xu Guangzhu stood in the middle and turned around to change hands to hold the red silk.
"Two thanks to the high hall!"
Because General Zhenbei was still fighting on the border, only the general's wife was in the hall at the moment, and she was watching with a smile on her face.
Mu Tangxi felt that if General Zhenbei knew about this, he would be so angry that he would run back from the border.
Xu Guangzhu, who was in the middle, turned around again and changed his hand to hold the red silk. A faint feeling of despair gradually emerged on his face, and even his tall body seemed to be about to be crushed.
Mu Tangxi suddenly remembered that the last one was the couple bowing to each other, so...
How are these three going to bow to each other as husband and wife? !
Just as Mu Tangxi wondered, the man hesitated for some reason when he shouted the last bow.
"…Husband and wife bow to each other!"
Then Mu Tangxi saw an even stranger scene.
Miss Li moved lightly to Miss An's side, while Seo Kwang-soo was facing Miss An and sideways to Miss Li.
There were two red silk strips connecting Seo Kwang-soo and the two ladies, which was very... strange.
Mu Tangxi pursed her lips gently, trying to hold back the arc that was about to rise.
The Third Prince Ji Qichen was dumbfounded. How could a marriage be like this? !
so horrible!
He put himself in their shoes and felt very embarrassed.
Thank you for your hard work, reading partner!
Fortunately, his father and mother had no expectations of him, so he could find a wife on his own, otherwise it would be too horrible to have a study partner!
This ridiculous wedding ceremony ended in front of the embarrassed eyes of the officials. After the two young ladies were sent to the bridal chamber, everyone present was obviously relieved.
There was no light in Xu Guangzhu's eyes. He thought it was ridiculous to bring two women into the house in one day, but he didn't expect that they would have to get married together.
This wife is neither a wife nor a concubine.
After a perfunctory toast, Seo Kwang-soo quickened his pace towards the third prince.
Mu Tangxi had just noticed that her cousin was walking towards the Third Prince, when a maidservant who came from nowhere whispered something in her ear.
"Miss An has something to ask you."
Then the maid walked a few steps outside and looked at Mu Tangxi, motioning her to follow.
Mu Tangxi nodded and followed. Before leaving, he signaled with his eyes to Dong Zhu beside him to stay and observe the third prince and his cousin.
As she followed, she wondered in her heart what Miss An wanted her to do.
It was not until Mu Tangxi stood in front of the room and pushed open the door, looking at Miss An who had already taken off her red veil, that she suddenly felt that she would not be surprised no matter what happened next.
When An Shulan saw Mu Tangxi coming, her cold face instantly warmed up. She waved at Mu Tangxi, "Tangxi, come quickly."
Mu Tangxi smiled, her eyes as clear and bright as ever, "Sister Shulan!"
An Shulan had a lot to say and wanted to vent to someone, but unfortunately her best friend couldn't come to her wedding banquet. After all, Yi Linlang became the second prince's consort, and Ling Ruoyun, as an unmarried woman, couldn't go out casually.
So she thought about it and invited Mu Tangxi to come, just to ask her what was going on with her cousin.
"Tangxi, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you today. If the general's wife hadn't given some benefits to the An family, I would never have tolerated this happening!" An Shulan said with disgust on her face.
"What should Sister Shulan do in the future? Will she be bullied by the general's wife and Miss Li?"
Mu Tangxi asked worriedly, actually wanting to find out what Miss An's future plans were. Miss An was not the type to endure this.
An Shulan was calm and collected. "How could I be bullied by them? They are afraid of the An Mansion behind me!"
"And...your cousin promised me that I would be in charge of the entire mansion from now on!"
Mu Tangxi was not very surprised by her cousin's decision. Miss An was a frank person at first glance. Besides, her cousin's mother and Miss Li were from the same family. In terms of balance, her cousin would give Miss An more power.
To ensure that there will be no chaos in the mansion.
