On the contrary, the other unlucky one who didn’t manage to get anything at all, was even shoved to a living dead, in return for Jiang Honghao’s promotion. But the ladies weren’t all that stupid, no one mentioned any of these unpleasant things on this big day. They praised Jiang Mingwei as usual. In order to please Jiang Mingwei, a young lady said: “Mingwei, you’re a natural beauty. Sure enough, you can’t force this kind of blessings, it’s yours from the start, no one else can take it away from you, even if they draw a tiger using a cat as a model, they still can’t be you.”
Everyone knew who she was referring to. Upon seeing that Jiang Mingwei’s expression didn’t change, the ladies all responded, “That’s right. A person is born into a certain life. Even if a chicken walks into a phoenix nest, it still can’t get rid of the smell of soil on its body. When I saw her at the birthday banquet, I felt that she looked so old, which was way different from Mingwei. She’s trying so hard to imitate you, but she’s merely just a copycat. How can she be compared to you?”
Another lady fanned herself as she covered her nose in disgust, and said, “I know right? A counterfeit is still a counterfeit afterall, she can’t be compared to the real thing. She had learned to be etiquette for quite some time now, but I heard that she annoyed both Prince Jiang and Prince Jin. Sure enough, the mud can’t hold up the wall. A person from the countryside would always reek of dirt.”
Several other ladies also showed their disgust. At the moment, a lady, who had a sharp face, approached and said mysteriously, “Have you all heard that, today, that “person” will also be coming to Mingwei’s wedding.”
“Oh?” Someone who wasn’t well informed, and only knew about this now said, “She is married to a living dead who already has one foot in the grave, doesn’t she feel embarrassed to show up?”
At this time, Jiang Mingwei said: “I sent someone to invite her. We came from the same family, and after all, she is my little sister. If I don’t invite her to my big wedding, I’m afraid that that’ll be too harsh on her.”
“Ming Wei, you’re too kind. Under this situation, you’re still looking out for her reputation. No wonder Prince Jin belongs to you.” The ladies around said one after another, “But she is also really pitiful. She is married to a lunatic, although her husband is still alive, but she is technically a living widow. Prince Jin you are the dream couple, tied together by fate. If you invite her to your wedding, she might get some luck from you two.”
All the ladies were pitying her, but they were actually having a good laugh about her. Jiang Mingwei smiled but didn’t say anything, and soon the groom’s family arrived. Jiang Mingwei covered her head with the veil and followed the matron of honor out.
The bunch of relatives were excitedly on the way to Prince Jin’s manor. Everyone was beaming at each other. The excitement was completely different from Prince Qiyang’s wedding a month ago. The crowd gathered around the newlyweds and bowed, and then they followed them into the bridal chamber enthusiastically.
Everyone stripped away their titles on the wedding day. Teasing the couples during their first night was done together regardless of gender and age. In addition, this was Prince Jin and the grand minister’s daughter. The hall was filled with influential figures and the wedding was bustling with noise and excitement.
One of the ladies, who were very good at socialising, teased the newlyweds and everyone burst into laughter. The atmosphere was still very lively right until the people outside stopped talking and laughing for some reason, and the chill slowly seeped inside. In the end, everyone knew that something was wrong, and they all looked back.
Mu Mingtang was standing outside the bridal chamber in her princess consort outfit that was only worn during prayer rituals. She noticed that everyone froze, she smiled softly as she stepped over the sill of the door: “Wasn’t everyone having fun just now? Why did all of you stop after seeing me?”
The ladies, who were good friends with Jiang Mingwei and were mocking her behind her back before, backed down and bowed when they saw Mu Mingtang: “Princess Qiyang.”
The people on both sides bowed and gave way to Mu Mingtang. Mu Mingtang walked all the way to the innermost area. Xie Xuanji saw Mu Mingtang and his expression didn’t look good, but he still bowed to Mu Mingtang politely: “Second sister-in-law.”
