Chapter 223: Massacre (1)

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

After crossing more than half of the capital, the bridal sedan was finally carried into Prince Yu’s mansion.

Many guests had already arrived at the entrance of Prince Yu’s mansion. Although Prince Yu was usually fierce and cruel, he was still a member of the royal family, so the ministers still had to come. Emperor Wen Hui and the princes didn’t come, but they all got someone to send their gifts.

Perhaps Prince Yu was displeased with Emperor Wen Hui’s attitude towards him over the past few days. When the people from the palace came today, he didn’t offer them a cup of wine to thank them. When the eunuch saw this scene, he sneered in his heart. Perhaps to others, they were just low life castrated men. However, in fact, they were closest to the emperor. Something must have happened between Emperor Wen Hui and Prince Yu. Prince Yu still went about doing his usual business, but Emperor Wen Hui was no longer as tolerant as before. Today, Prince Yu’s unfriendly attitude would only make Emperor Wen Hui even angrier.

After the people in the palace left, Prince Yu turned around and instructed the servants to continue welcoming the guests. Today, Prince Yu was wearing a bright red wedding robe. The fabric and embroidery of the robe were undoubtedly very exquisite, but when he wore it, one of his trouser legs was hanging loosely, making it look a little strange. He was born with a fierce-looking face, but today, he forced a seemingly amiable face, which made the guests feel a chill run down their spines.

The Shen family was also here. Shen Gui and Shen Wan had long gone to talk to their close colleagues. Shen Gui had nothing to lose now. Anyway, everyone knew that Shen Qing was involved in such a scandal. It was better to take advantage of the fact that Shen Qing was married to Prince Yu to help his career. As for Shen Wan, there was no need to mention him. The two of them were ambitious people, so they naturally would not miss this opportunity.

Shen Xin and Luo Xueyan sat at the same side. They looked down on Shen Gui’s behavior. Ren Wanyun came and sat with Shen Yuan. She had carefully put on makeup to cover her red eyes. She was afraid of angering Prince Yu, so she forced a smile. However, no matter how she forced a smile, one could tell there was a hint of anger in her smile.

Every time Shen Yue looked over, Shen Qiu would shoot a glare back at him. Luo Xueyan noticed and asked with concern, “Brat, what happened between you and Shen Yuan?”

Shen Xin and his wife did not know about what happened between Shen Qing and Shen Miao, so Shen Qiu stammered, “Well… I don’t like him. There’s a little friction.”

“You’re really something.” Luo Xueyan glared at him. “Shen Qiu, how old are you this year?”

Shen Qiu looked at Shen Miao for help. Shen Miao pretended not to know and looked at the teacup without saying anything.

The scene was filled with joyful laughter and flattery. In the blink of an eye, it was time for Shen Qing and Prince Yu to get married.

Shen Qing was helped into the hall by her maids. After the newly-wed paid their respects to the heavens and earth, they were about to bow to Shen Gui. Shen Gui looked very embarrassed. Prince Yu looked at him with a dark gaze. It was probably a terrifying thing to receive a bow from Prince Yu.

At this moment, the butler of Prince Yu’s mansion said condescendingly, “His Highness is not feeling well these days. I think we can skip this procedure.”

As soon as he said that, the hall plunged into silence for a moment. Ren Wanyun gritted her teeth, and the muscles on her face were trembling in anger. Clearly, Prince Yu did not want to acknowledge Shen Qing as his wife and was deliberately making things difficult for Shen Gui and Ren Wanyun.

Although Shen Gui also felt extremely embarrassed and humiliated, he was afraid that Prince Yu would blame him, so he immediately said, “Since Your Highness is not feeling well, forget it.”
