Chapter 233 Obeisance! What a Grand Wedding Ceremony!

Empress Dowager waved her hand, "Go quickly. Don't miss the auspicious time."

Yang Zijin nodded and followed the bridesmaid to walk to Shuo Ling.

After Yang Zijin stood up, the bridesmaid smiled and handed the lit incense to Shuo Ling and Yang Zijin.

After the two took it, they walked to the censer aside.

Then the bridesmaid walked forward and said, "Kneel to offer the incense."

Yang Zijin and Shuo Ling looked at each other, then knelt, and inserted the incense into the censer.

"Kowtow three times." The bridesmaid said loudly.

Both of them did as the bridesmaid said.

Then the bridesmaid walked forward, smiled, and said to them, "My Lord, it's time to bow to Heaven and Earth next. Please return to where you were just now."

After hearing it, Shuo Ling nodded and stood up first, then bent over to hold Yang Zijin up. Yang Zijin smiled slightly and put her hand on Shuo Ling's hand and stood up.

Then, the two returned to their previous positions and stood still.

The maids around threw petals into the air.

The petals were blown by the breeze, swirling in the air. The scene was breathtaking.

Against the backdrop of red, the scene was extraordinarily romantic.

Everyone was fascinated.

The bridesmaid smiled and walked aside and said loudly, "Bow to Heaven and Earth."

After the bridesmaid said that, Yang Zijin was about to turn around but was pulled by Shuo Ling.

Then he motioned Yang Zijin to follow him.

Yang Zijin understood and smiled at Shuo Ling.

Shuo Ling bowed to His Majesty at this time, and Yang Zijin also hurriedly followed Shuo Ling and bowed to Chushi Youtian.

Chushi Youtian seemed to be calm, but he felt suspicious. Judging from Shuo Ling's behavior, it seemed that Shuo Ling was extremely loyal to him. However, he couldn't trust him. He could only rest assured after everything was checked.

At this time, the bridesmaid said loudly, "Bow to parents!"

Shuo Ling held Yang Zijin's hand and saluted in the direction where Duke of Mu was sitting.

Duke of Mu said with a smile, "Good, good."

"Bow to each other!" The bridesmaid said again after the two saluted Duke of Mu.

Shuo Ling and Yang Zijin stood facing each other. There was affection in their eyes, and then the two bowed to each other.

After that, the bridesmaid finally said, "Happy wedding!"

Then the two raised their heads, and Shuo Ling held Yang Zijin's hand again and smiled at her.

The people who sat behind Duke of Mu stood up and walked to Duke of Mu one after another, "My Lord, congratulations."

"Marquis Shuo is a very good son-in-law. He treats your daughter very well. You're fortunate."

...

"Thanks a lot. Remember to have a few drinks today." Duke of Mu stood up, cupped his hands, and said with a smile.

"Of course..."

After the ceremony was completed, the bridesmaid smiled and walked to Shuo Ling and Yang Zijin, "You two are a perfect match."

"Mo Li, award her!" After hearing this, Shuo Ling felt delighted, so he turned his head and said to Mo Li.

Mo Li nodded. He had made preparations, so he took out a red purse and handed it to the bridesmaid.

The bridesmaid took it. The weight of the purse made her delighted. Then she said with a smile, "Thank you, My Lord. Wish you lots of love and happiness."

After the ceremony, the banquet began.

Shuo Ling found that the Commandery Prince, Lu Jing, who always disliked attending banquets, also appeared in the feast. Lu Jing was drinking alone, one cup after another. Shuo Ling frowned.

But Shuo Ling didn't really care.

Shuo Ling asked Yang Zijin, "Are you tired?"

"A little bit." Yang Zijin nodded and said. She had been standing with a pair of high heels.

Shuo Ling said, "How about I send you back to rest for a while?"

"Okay." Yang Zijin nodded.

Shuo Ling took Yang Zijin's hand to go back to the room.

When they walked to a table, Yang Zijin saw Lan Ruojing sitting there. She heard he was talking about something with others when he saw her coming.

Yang Zijin got closer and only heard:

"Do you know that a sensational event happened in Jing City today?"

"You must be joking. What is more sensational than the wedding today?"

"Well, although it's a grand wedding ceremony, that thing is not small."

"What's that? Tell me."

"Do you want to know?"

"Don't beat around the bush."

"Okay, okay, but you can't tell others, lest there be some troubles in the mansion."

"What's that matter? How can it correspond with the mansion of Marquis Shuo?"

"Woman Flower caught fire."

"Really? Is it run by Infanta Qingcheng?"

"Yes. I heard that the goods in the warehouse were burned in the fire and people were injured."

Yang Zijin heard that someone had been injured and she felt anxious. She glanced at Lan Ruojing and hurriedly left.

Of course, Shuo Ling also heard what Lan Ruojing said.

He hurriedly followed Yang Zijin.

There was a wicked smile on Lan Ruojing's face.

A person asked doubtfully, "Really?"

"Of course, it's true. On the way I came just now, people were talking about it." Lan Ruojing said.

Then Lan Ruojing hypocritically whispered, "Don't tell others. If the infanta knows it, she may run away again."

"I see." Several people smiled and nodded.

Shuo Ling took a few steps quickly to catch up with Yang Zijin. He then took Yang Zijin's hand and asked, "Where are you going?"

"I want to check whether it's true or not." Yang Zijin turned her head and said.

Shuo Ling frowned slightly and said, "Do you want to abandon me like last time?"

"I can't think too much now. Didn't you hear that someone got hurt?" Yang Zijin said anxiously and broke away from Shuo Ling's hand. She continued to walk outside. Suddenly, she lost her balance and fell down.

Seeing this, Shuo Ling hurried to hold Yang Zijin. Yang Zijin was about to push Shuo Ling away again, but the pain from her ankle made her frown.

Shuo Ling directly carried Yang Zijin up and walked to the wedding room.

Yang Zijin was angry and slapped his back with her hand, "Shuo Ling, put me down."

Shuo Ling ignored that and carried her into the room. Then he put her down and let her sit on a stool. He said, "Calm down. You had some problems with Lan Ruojing before. He may tell a lie."

"What if it's true?" Yang Zijin looked at Shuo Ling and asked.

There was a flash of light in Shuo Ling's eyes, and then he said, "If it is true, it has already happened. You can't help if you go."

"Then what should I do? I don't know who got injured." Yang Zijin said.

Shuo Ling thought for a while, took Yang Zijin's hand, and said, "I'll go to ask Mo Li to check the situation. If it's true, I'll let him help them. After His Majesty and Empress Dowager leave, we can go to check together."

"That's the only way." Yang Zijin nodded.

Yang Zijin calmed down. She agreed with Shuo Ling. His Majesty and Empress Dowager were here. If she left without regard to the situation here at this time, these officials might feel that she was impolite. Duke of Mu might lose face and her reputation would also be damaged!

The last time she got off the sedan chair halfway. Although it was excusable, it was inevitable that the officials' wives would gossip about her if she left this time.

Shuo Ling said, "You can take a rest first. I will come back later."

"Okay." Yang Zijin responded.

After Shuo Ling left, Yang Zijin lamely walked to the bed. She took off the shoes and checked the injury on the ankle.

Although she designed the shoes according to her feet, there were many procedures that were omitted. Besides, she walked a little fast, so she accidentally got injured.

Yang Zijin then put her right foot on the bed and saw a large piece of skin had been abraded at the ankle.

She moved her foot and found that except the abrasion was painful, the bones were not injured.

She felt lucky that although the skin was abraded, her ankle was well.

She felt relieved, remembering that it took a long time to recover after her ankle got injured last time.

Then she laid down on the bed. Only then did she notice that Shuo Ling had decorated the wedding room carefully.

She glanced around. The room was decorated with red brocade. She noticed that there was a dresser in the corner of the room.

She frowned slightly, but she knew that the nobility would not live in the same room with their wives after getting married.

Unexpectedly, Shuo Ling prepared a dresser in his room. What did this mean? Did it mean that he would live in the same room with her?

But this was something to talk about later.

Yang Zijin was worried about the fire of Woman Flower that Lan Ruojing had mentioned just now. She couldn't think so much right now.

Shuo Ling came out of the room and walked towards the banquet.

Mo Li was standing aside. When he saw Shuo Ling, he quickly walked over, "My Lord."

"Go to check whether Woman Flower caught fire or not. If someone is injured, you should stay there to take care of them. If there are not enough helpers, you can arrange some people to help them." Shuo Ling whispered to Mo Li.

Mo Li nodded and then said, "What Your Lordship predicted is right. I saw someone appeared in the backyard just now."
