Chapter 660: Cuscuta Cousin 24
The family dinner is over.
Sheng Huan and Fu Shirui took Madam Fu's arm and left.
"Mother and your cousin will accompany you tonight, okay?"
Mrs. Fu touched her daughter's head and felt more reluctant.
Now that my daughter has entered the palace, there will always be many more restrictions when we meet in the future.
"No, Mother."
Sheng Huan glanced at Fu Shirui and concealed the darkness in his eyes.
Fu Shirui squeezed in the middle, holding her mother and cousin in each hand.
"I have to get up early tomorrow. I need to sleep well tonight. Otherwise, what will I do if I can't fall asleep while talking with you guys?"
Sheng Huan and Madam Fu laughed out loud.
Sheng Huan took out a box from his arms and handed it to Fu Shirui.
"Cousin, this is a gift from me to you, I hope you like it." The old emperor in the palace is too dirty, and we always have to be on guard.
Fu Shirui took the gift and smiled without even opening it: "I like it very much, thank you, cousin."
-
The next day.
When it was still foggy outside and it was still dark outside, Sheng Huan had already learned from Pu Hua that Jinxiu Residence had already been busy.
Fu Shirui was even grabbed by several maids and forced to change into wedding clothes.
Sheng Huan didn't stay in bed. He opened his eyes and got up.
"Miss, you're awake." Furong heard the noise and came in quickly: "It's not even dawn outside yet, why don't you take a rest?"
The girl slept very late last night. I wonder if she will have a headache if she gets up so early.
Sheng Huan shook his head: "No need to sleep, my cousin will be leaving soon, let's go see her off."
Furong understood what her master meant, and stopped trying to persuade her. She bowed and said, "Yes."
-
The sky is bright.
Fu Shirui changed into the imperial concubine's uniform sent by the palace. When she was helped out by the servants, she looked dignified, graceful and stunningly beautiful.
"Please get into the sedan chair, Your Majesty." The eunuch's shrill voice sounded, like a rooster with its neck pinched.
"Mother, father..." Fu Shirui looked at her relatives one by one: "I am leaving."
Fu Shirui did not shed tears. She got into the sedan steadily with a determination she had never had before in her eyes.
She thought, nightmares are just dreams, and the concubine thing is all fake, she is now a noble concubine!
"Get up the sedan!"
The ceremonial procession was grand and carried the solemnity of a royal family as it slowly left Duke Fu’s mansion.
Sheng Huan saw that Mrs. Fu couldn't hold back her tears and held her hand tightly.
"aunt."
"Ying'er." Madam Fu wiped her tears but still couldn't help sobbing. She hugged her into her arms and said, "You are the only one left by my aunt's side."
She was obviously too reluctant.
"Aunt, you still want to see my cousin off, right?" The woman mustered up her courage, her eyes bright, and looked up at Madam Fu Er: "Actually, I have reserved a seat at Zhongcheng Building."
"It's very big." She said: "Aunt, will you come with me?"
When Fu Jinmo heard this, he glanced at Sheng Huan.
The woman smiled widely, and her delicate eyes and eyebrows were radiant.
Madam Fu was startled, but suddenly she held Sheng Huan's hand tightly, shaking uncontrollably. How could she have never thought of this before? She nodded vigorously: "Go!"
No one else tried to stop them, but they didn't know if it would be too late if they went over now.
If we take another route, we might be able to catch up and avoid being misunderstood and disrupting the ceremony.
Fu Jinmo stood up and said, "Second Aunt, I'll let Changji take you there."
Duke Fu and his wife glanced at their son, which was rare.
Fu Jingzhou looked at his little cousin again, feeling very conflicted.
Master Fu Er glanced at his son and saw him staring at Sheng Huan. He was puzzled and suddenly there was another "click"!
No way, could it be that Jing Zhou, this beast, has some idea about his cousin?! Master Fu Er loves this niece who grew up in his house and treats her like his own daughter. If his son has some bad intentions, wouldn't that be incest?!
Master Fu Er was so frightened that he quickly pushed Fu Jingzhou away.
"Father, what are you doing?" Fu Jingzhou looked confused.
Master Fu Er snorted: "Nothing."
-
The imperial concubine's ceremonial procession entered the palace, and the guards cleared the way wherever they went.
Sheng Huan and the Fu family hurried and finally arrived at Zhongcheng Building.
The window was opened and several people stood by it, watching the sedan chair slowly pass by.
In the sedan, Fu Shirui was thinking about the things in her nightmare, but as she got farther and farther away from the mansion, her heart seemed to be getting emptier and emptier for some reason, and a feeling of loss arose in her heart.
Suddenly at this moment, a gust of wind blew and lifted the car curtain. She subconsciously raised her eyes and saw the faces of her relatives in the second-floor windows.
She widened her eyes.
Mother, father, aunt, cousin...even uncle and eldest and third brothers were here!
Tears appeared in her eyes and she could no longer control them.
Upstairs, Sheng Huan looked at Fu Shirui, his lips moved slightly, and he whispered the word "peace". Mrs. Fu had tears in her eyes and also smiled.
The Duke's wife looked at her niece... In a trance, she seemed to see her deceased daughter. Was Rou'er like this so many years ago...
She finally waved her hand, her lips moved slightly, and I couldn't tell what she said.
Fu Jinmo stood aside. The man was exceptionally tall, with his face hidden in the shadows so his expression could not be seen clearly. He looked at the woman's rosy cheeks and her long eyelashes filled with tears, and his fingertips could not help but move slightly.
In a restaurant in the distance, Xiao Ye Ze also saw Sheng Huan.
The man's eyes lit up slightly.
-
At the same time, in another private room.
Ji Yunxiu's face was gloomy. He and the Fifth Prince watched the sedan chair passing by and felt it was dazzling.
"Is this what you said? Don't be nervous?" The teacup in the fifth prince's hand fell on the table, feeling a little heavy.
Ji Yunxiu lowered his head, thinking of what he had learned from Song Yuwan, and calmed his mind: "Fifth Prince, this is only temporary, soon..."
I don't know what he said, but the Fifth Prince's expression looked a little better.
-
Imperial Palace, Guangming Hall.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Fu's procession will be arriving soon." The chief eunuch stepped forward and bowed, but he obviously noticed that Emperor Zhenghua was extremely unhappy.
He thought about it and it made sense. During the past three days, whenever the emperor was happy, the imperial eunuch would be trembling with fear every day after the imperial edict was issued, fearing that the emperor would be unhappy and take his anger out on him.
Emperor Zhenghua had no emotion in his eyes, but he still stood up: "Let's go and pick up my concubine."
But how cunning can a seventeen-year-old girl be? People of this age will always indulge in some illusory feelings. So what if she comes from the Duke's Mansion? If she is given a little sweetness, she will be addicted to it.
Once you are addicted, he still has the final say.
Just like Concubine Xiao now, isn't it?
A soft light flashed across the eyes of Emperor Zhenghua: "My beloved concubine may not be feeling well after entering the palace for the first time. Please send some more things to her palace."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
