Although there was a bustling and talkative discussion outside, Xian Sheng started feeling nauseous and the urge to vomit whilst the sedan chair was swaying back and forth, making it uncomfortable for him. He was trying his best to hold in his urge, but since he was dragged out of the bed early in the morning and put under hours of torment, he temporarily lost his consciousness because he was tired and exhausted.

It was North Jin Country’s Crown Prince’s wedding. The Emperor and Empress were both present. Those who came to the wedding were all nobles and officials of the capital. They were either prime ministers or generals. Each of them congratulated the Crown Prince and he smiled, nodding along. One could tell how happy he was, yet he subconsciously looked towards the street ahead of them frequently. 

The wedding team that he longed for was finally here. He stopped and placed his gaze on the sedan chair. Everyone could tell that the Crown Prince was eager to have the beauty in his arms. The fireworks banged and lit up as the sedan chair approached them. Someone said sing-song, “Bride, you may get off the sedan chair. Good fortune is brought—”

The sedan chair was placed down and the lady who was supposed to support the bride out of the sedan chair respectfully waited for the bride to come out. However, there was no movement.

 

 

Zhan Lue walked over. Yue Hua reacted first and hurriedly rushed over, asking, “Princess?”

She called a few times but there was still no movement inside. Many guests started to become silent. 

Zhan Lue’s smile froze a bit. He walked over in large strides and listened. He heard slight movements inside and nervous breathing.

 

Xian Sheng was just startled awake and noticed that the sedan chair stopped rocking. It was quiet outside and he was anxious.

Zhan Lue realized something and his expression relaxed. “Princess wants me to personally help you out?”

Hearing the voice, Xian Sheng finally confirmed that they were here. He moved forward and pulled the curtains to the side, seeing a hand extending over.

Xian Sheng didn’t dare to wait any longer, handing his hand over. Yet, his legs suddenly weekend and everything turned black for a second. Zhan Lue wrapped his arm around Xian Sheng’s waist and everyone started becoming rowdy again. Xian Sheng clutched onto him, reluctantly standing up still. He said with difficulty, “I don’t feel that good.”

Zhan Lue held onto Xian Sheng’s sweaty hands and said, “I’ll hold onto you.”

He couldn’t see Zhan Lue’s expression clearly, so he could only trust him. At the same time, he pinched himself and reluctantly became spirited. He said, “Thank you.”

The Crown Prince’s marriage was different from the people. However, the Northern Country was open-minded and it was still very lively. However, whilst being lively, it was also elegant and dignified. 

Someone started saying auspicious words and people followed along. Xian Sheng walked over the saddle and the fire pan, passing by the enthusiastic guests by his two sides and walked towards the anteroom.

Then, the couple completed the wedding ceremony in front of everyone.

Xian Sheng lifted his head and then looked down. He had been suppressing his coughs, not daring to cough too loud. However, he suddenly felt a layer of cold sweat on his body. Everything became dizzy in front of him. The scene and voices in front of him suddenly became further and further.

Xian Sheng grabbed onto the red ribbon tightly and it was wet from his sweat as well. 

“Bring her into the bridal room—”

Xian Sheng suddenly felt the world spinning in front of him and he landed in Zhan Lue’s arms. Right after, Zhan Lue carried him princess style as he clutched the red ribbon. Wearing the heavy phoenix crown, Xian Sheng leaned his head against Zhan Lue’s shoulder. No matter how unwilling he was, he still lost his consciousness completely.

 

Zhan Lue carried Xian Sheng, leaving the guest-filled front hall. He passed through the corridors. Ruyi and Yue Hua’s faces paled as they followed along. The latter said lightly and quickly, “Thankfully, the wedding ceremony is complete. Your Highness, may the princess go in and take off her phoenix crown? She hasn’t eaten anything since this morning and she woke up early too. She must’ve fainted in the sedan chair before and she definitely didn’t purposely make things difficult for Your Highness.”

Zhan Lue’s expression was faint and he said nothing. 

Yue Hua didn’t understand his thoughts and became more and more nervous.

Now that they were in the Jin Country, they needed to listen to the Crown Prince. If they offended him, the princess wouldn’t live a good life.

They walked to the door and someone opened the door for Zhan Lue. However, he said icily, “Don’t come in.”

The maids carrying the wine and jade ruyi as well as the matron of honor glanced at each other. Yue Hua and Ruyi both sweated but they didn’t dare say another word. 

Ruyi asked in a low voice, “Is he going to…”

“No.” Yue Hua said calmly, “The Emperor of the Jin Country is still outside. No matter how preposterous the Crown Prince is, he won’t touch the princess right now.”

Inside the room, Zhan Lue placed Xian Sheng on the bed and reached over to take off the red cover.

The face powder concealed Xian Sheng’s pale and sick face. The red clothes contrasted his snow-white skin. This was a beautiful face that no man could resist. 

The man took off the phoenix crown and felt surprised by how heavy it was. At the same time, he saw the red mark on Xian Sheng’s forehead as a result of wearing it.

Xian Sheng’s hair was wet because he was drenched in cold sweat. Zhan Lue placed the phoenix crown on the bed and reached over to feel Xian Sheng’s breath. Then, he took his pulse and his face darkened.

He lifted Xian Sheng’s neck and the head fell back, revealing his slender and beautiful neck. Zhan Lue pinched Xian Sheng’s philtrum and he knitted his eyebrows, slowly waking up. The nauseous feeling in his stomach still didn’t disappear. He felt strengthless and bitter.

Xian Sheng suddenly heard a voice in his ears, “If you die, I will have the Liang Country die with you.” 

Hearing this, Xian Sheng suddenly opened his eyes and glanced at Zhan Lue. The man gently placed Xian Sheng’s head back on the pillow and he placed a hand against the side of the pillow. He looked down at the extremely beautiful face. Slowly, he observed him as if tasting some delicious food using his eyes. He said in deep affection. “You’re awake? Call me hubby.”
