CHAPTER 1132: CHAPTER 1126: SENDING THE IMPERIAL DECREE

Xiang Chun was fuming with anger, thinking to herself: You still come back? You still expect to return?

Since the wife of the Crown Prince has assigned you to the coachman, you’d better prepare to sleep in the stables for the rest of your life.

"What’s going on?" From a distance, Gu Youyou heard Xiang Chun arguing with Searcy.

Xiang Chun immediately tattled.

"I was helping Searcy move things, and she wasn’t even happy about it, criticizing me instead."

Gu Youyou looked at those items; they were all for Searcy’s work.

It was enough for some of Searcy’s personal items to be moved. Were these things necessary to be moved as well?

Gu Youyou looked at Searcy, who had a face full of schadenfreude.

Gu Youyou had no choice but to say to Searcy: "Don’t move these things, put them back, okay?"

"Ah?" Xiang Chun held those items, at a loss.

Gu Youyou then said, "If you really have nothing to do, go and check if everything is ready in the kitchen."

After speaking, she addressed Searcy, "And you, you are the bride. Shouldn’t you be sitting in your room waiting for the groom to come fetch you, instead of running out to the courtyard? What are you doing?"

Really a headache.

...

While Gu Youyou was busy arranging the marriage here, the Empress’s informants had already reported the matter to her.

She thought to herself, how terrible, just half a day late, and it’s already too late.

"Nurse Li, Nurse Li, hurry and take my decree to the Crown Prince Residence."

The decree was just finished, ready to be proclaimed by Nurse Li in the afternoon; she didn’t expect that before lunchtime, they would already begin the wedding ceremony.

Nurse Li, troubled, took the decree and said, "Empress, it’s already too late to proclaim your decree. They have already started the wedding ceremony. Even if they haven’t, we can’t just snatch away a bride dressed in her wedding gown. Neither the Crown Prince nor Gu Youyou are easy to provoke. Especially the Crown Prince, you see, last time just a few words from him made you lose face, and even the Emperor scolded you."

The Empress miscalculated once again, leaving her infuriated.

They only spoke about the wedding yesterday, and today they are so eager to carry it out—as if they’re racing for reincarnation. Obviously, they did it on purpose.

She took a deep breath and said, "Then you... then just send a gift over, and by the way, see who that poison doctor married?"

She was furious, eager to see who it was that could possibly be better than her King Jin.

Nurse Li obeyed the Empress’s command and hurried out of the palace.

When she arrived at the Crown Prince Residence, they were in the middle of the wedding ceremony.

Nurse Li arrived out of breath; her presence was anticipated by Gu Youyou.

"Crown Prince, wife of the Crown Prince, the Empress heard that there’s a joyous event in your residence today, and especially sent this servant to deliver a wedding gift."

The Palace Maiden following her presented a gift.

Xiang Chun, by Gu Youyou’s side, took the gift, and Gu Youyou stood up, smiling at Nurse Li: "Please convey Youyou’s thanks to the Empress Mother!"

Since a gift had been sent, she might as well accept it.

"Xiang Chun, later send this to Searcy’s bridal chamber."

"Yes, wife of the Crown Prince," Xiang Chun complied.

After instructing Xiang Chun, Gu Youyou turned to Nurse Li and said, "Since you have come, Nurse Li, please have a cup of wedding wine before you leave. Someone, escort Nurse Li to the guest seats!"

Nurse Li’s face was slightly cold, as she looked up at the man in the groom’s attire.

Skinny and so unpleasant to look at, he was far inferior to their King Jin.

Moreover, someone who could marry so hastily, and even in the Crown Prince Residence—it was likely not from a reputable family.

She was startled, thinking to herself: Could it be that he is a servant of the Crown Prince Residence?
