Chapter 15: Nuptial Night

At this point of time, Feng’er arrived stealthily holding a few pieces of rags. She stifled her sobs as she spoke, “Your Ladyship, Old maidservant Zhang said there is no gauze bandage in the house. I have no choice but to find some clothing material as a replacement. Do you think this will work?”

“This type of cloth won’t do, but it’s okay now as I have done with the bandaging.” Yun Rouyue replied. 

In her memory, old maidservant Zhao was a housekeeper who had been working for a long time in Prince Li’s residence. Based on her seniority and experience in the manor, Old maidservant Zhao clearly knew the original Yun Ruoyue was an unfavoured consort, therefore she wasn’t afraid of this mistress and took advantage to bully her. 

Yun Ruoyue pounded her fist on the table, she must find an opportunity to teach this boorish servant a lesson. 

Feng’er looked at the mistress’s arm gauze bandage and swept her gaze across the table full of strange medical items, she blurted, “Your Ladyship, where did you get these things?”

Yun Ruoyue was taken aback at Feng’er’s inquiry, however didn’t put up a defense against her because she knew Feng’er was a trusted and loyal personal maidservant that followed the Miss since a very young age, therefore she wasn’t planning to hide anything from her. 

Yun Ruoyue thought for a moment and replied, “I found these things inside my dowry box while going through it just now, should be mother who gave it to me, remember must not reveal to anyone.” 

“Your Ladyship, please don’t worry. Your secret is also my secret, I promise that I won’t tell others.” Feng’er was astonished at the change in her mistress, she was wiser now. 

Ever since Miss fell into the lake, she seemed to have changed to another person, although it was full of unexplainable secrets but that doesn’t matter to her, as long as that was her Miss, she would give out all her heart and support unconditionally. 

“I still need these medicines, put them away in a safe place. Please help me find a cloth bag and keep them inside.” These medicines are important and useful for her, moreover she couldn’t find any in ancient times. Who knows that she might put it to good use in the future. 

 

As the night falls, the night sky fills with dotted stars, and a crescent moon hangs in the sky, the moonlight shines upon the earth, covering it like a silver blanket. 

After all the guests have left, the manor falls into silence. 

In the nuptial chamber, Nangong Rou fell into his arms and weeping sadly, “Your Highness, why does big sister loathe me? I don’t know what I have done wrong to her and she is deliberately making things difficult for me.” Her lips pouted slightly while snuggling up to him. 

This wasn’t as simple as just making things difficult for her, Yun Ruoyue insisted on her to change the bright red wedding robe into a pink dress before proceeding to the wedding reception, this was an utter disgrace.

 

Chu Xuanchen’s heart sank when saw her being upset, he clenched his fist when he replied, “She’s always like that, no need to listen to her. Don’t worry, you have me here and she can’t do anything to you.”

She turned around to face Chu Xuanchen and asked, “However, she was so beautiful today, is she the same all this while?” This was the main concern that kept bothering her all night  and she wanted to find out from him. 

It was her pride and glory to be the number one beauty in the Great Chu dynasty. If she proclaimed herself as second, then nobody would dare to be number one. 

That was before, and after she had seen Yun Ruoyue’s beautiful visage, she was skeptical. 

When Nangong Rou brought up the subject, Chu Xuanchen involuntarily thought of Yun Ruoyue in his mind. Even if she became more beautiful than a phoenix, he couldn’t care less because he won’t have any interest in her. 

Besides, those years when Emperor Hongyuan joined forces with Yun Qing to overthrow Emperor Qingyuan, and also murdered imperial father and mother, to him the Yun family and Emperor Hongyuan were the same, his sworn blood feud enemies.

Between him and the Yun family were fueled with deep hatred and destined to be eternal enemies, all he cared about was to seek revenge on the Yun family, including Yun Ruoyue. For him, whether she was beautiful or not, it’s meaningless. 

Despite his irritation, he replied while gently caressing her silky long black hair. “She looked ugly yesterday night, I don’t know why after one night, her scars were gone. Tomorrow, this prince will personally go and ask her.”

He had been in love with Nangong Rou for so long and finally he had the chance to marry her. However, he felt wronged for not giving her a prince consort status as his main wife. With that, he promised himself that he would give her everything he could to compensate for the loss. 

Her eyes flooded with tears with an envious tone as she spoke, “She was so pretty now, I’m afraid Your Highness will have a change of heart and fall in love with her.”
