"Miss, quickly put on your clothes, it's almost time." Riko ran forward and back, instructing the maidservants by her side to pack up the auspicious clothing and jade ornaments. "Hurry and help the wangfei change into her clothes."

Xiao Qingyi sat on the bed with a headache. She pressed one hand to her temples and the other to her stomach as she waited for them to strip her clothes. If it wasn't for the fact that she knew that this ancient dress was too heavy for her, she would have already thrown these people out.

Normally, she hated troublesome things the most. The simpler she wore things, the better. At most, two hairpins were not allowed on her head. Now that she was wearing one, it would be strange if she didn't get too angry.

Riko naturally knew of her young miss's personality. Seeing her impatient expression, she did not dare to provoke her ancestor on such a happy day. She waved her hand and said, "Alright, I'll take the rest. You can all leave."

"Yes." The maidservants all retreated, not daring to linger here any longer.

This master was usually quite gentle, why was he looking so unhappy on such a joyous day?

There were not so many people in the room. Only then did Xiao Qing Ran heave a sigh of relief as she pulled open the buttons of her big red wedding dress and sighed: "It's really troublesome enough. If I knew earlier, I wouldn't have agreed to that man's request."

"My lady, your highness has worked so hard for three or four days for this wedding, if I were to hear your words, I would definitely be grieving." Riko put down the jade hairpin in her hand and helped her retie the buttons. "Look, this wedding dress was personally made by the prince. I heard that the patterns on it were all designed by the prince himself."

Xiao Qing Ran rolled her eyes as she raised her body to let Li Er tidy up her clothes. "Come on, that man would be sad over such a thing. I've been tired for so many days, but he seems to be very happy."

Riko giggled and carefully arranged the corners of her wedding dress, "Miss, you are really … It's only right for the prince to be happy about such a thing. In the eyes of others, Miss, your attitude is truly strange. "

Xiao Qing Ran slanted her eyes and sat upright, "I say, Li Er, did you benefit from that man? "Why did you always speak up for that man these past two days?"

Riko chuckled coyly. "How can that be? I am doing it for the miss's own good."

Although the prince had secretly given his underlings quite a few good things, but … Cough cough, this can't be considered as him being bribed. She really did it all for the sake of the young mistress!

Even if Xiao Qingran did not know how she could not understand Su Qianhan, just by looking at her expression, she knew that she had guessed correctly.

Su Qianhan was becoming more and more adept at playing, even trying to win the hearts of others with this little favor. It seemed like she had let these rascals train their minds to such an extent.

"Alright young miss, it's getting late. Let Li Er help you get dressed, it won't be good if you miss the auspicious time." She was led to the dressing table.

Although her stomach was bulging, it was impossible to tell that she was pregnant from being wrapped by the large dress.

Ri-Er called out for Qing'er. This servant girl was a servant before the City Lord's Mansion. She was young, but she was also intelligent. Seeing that she wasn't someone with ill intentions, Ri-Er ordered her to stay.

After all, she, her master, didn't like to be in charge of family matters. Previously, she had trusted people to manage things for her, but now that she was here, she couldn't do it all by herself.

Qing`er heard someone call out from within the room, and pushed open the door with something in her hands. "Princess Wangfei Wan An, Big Sister Li Er."

"Qing`er, have you prepared the things that I've asked you to prepare?" Riko took out a golden phoenix hairpin and gestured it at Xiao Qing Ran's head.

"He's already here." Qing`er spread out a piece of paper that was as long as a memorial in her palm and scattered it in the air, "Do you want to read it now?"

Out of the corner of her eye, Xiao Qingran saw that the object was at least half a meter long. It was covered with small words, "What is this thing?"

"Miss will know in a while." After which, she turned to Qing`er and said, "Read it."

"Alright." Qing`er nodded and took two steps forward to stand next to Xiao Qingran. "Princess, you have to listen carefully. It's getting late. I can't read it twice no matter how long I read it."

Xiao Qing was startled, "What do you mean?"

"Princess, please listen carefully. Because the wedding ceremony is a bit rushed and the Prince knows that you don't like the tedious etiquette, many of the etiquette that can be dispensed with has been cancelled for you in advance. The rest is the procedure written on this list."

Xiao Qing looked at the "list" and suddenly felt that she did not want to continue.

"From now on, Your Highness will have less than an hour to dress up. In an hour, the palanquin sent by the Prince will be waiting for you outside the door. After you get on the palanquin, you will have to patrol the entire city for a week. Return to the prince's mansion around noon."

"Prince Can will ride his big horse and wait for you at the entrance of the palace. Afterwards, he will take you to circle around the palace once more before inviting you out from your palanquin. When the time is right, you and the Prince can enter the hall to pay your respects. Your Royal Highness specifically said that because your father isn't here, we should temporarily pay our respects to the vacant seat. We have already arranged for His Majesty's and the Prime Minister's belongings to be placed in the high hall. "

After the ceremony, you don't need to toast the wine, but you need to converse a few words with the other city lords. After that, you can return to your room and wait for the prince to finish his business and return to your room.

As Qing`er spoke, she placed the list in front of Xiao Qing Ran. After which, she tapped the box and said, "There are some basic etiquette for the ceremony between you and your highness. I can only let you take a look at these trivial things, afraid that you won't remember them."

Xiao Qing Ran looked at the thing and felt her eyelids twitch non-stop. She really wanted to run away from the marriage. Just from what this girl had said just now, it was enough to make her head hurt.

If this happened in the capital, where there were no older court ladies, they would have no choice but to do as they were told. However, Xiao Qing felt that it was indeed very good, this kind of resemblance to her was something she could barely endure. She was afraid that her neck would not be able to bear it.

Riko looked at her completed headdress and clapped. "It's finally done. Miss, do you think it's pretty?"

Xiao Qing Ran glanced at the bronze mirror as the corner of her mouth twitched imperceptibly, "Hmm … "Pretty, pretty."

Beautiful indeed, but it doesn't seem like her at all …

Qing'er also squeezed over, trying her best to get Xiao Qing Qing to cooperate with her work. However, this mistress was getting lazier and lazier after getting pregnant.

Xiao Qing Qing was in a dizzy state for the entire day. She was sometimes called by this person to do this, then she was called by that person to do that, and in short, it was extremely annoying. She finally got back to her room after a long time.

By the time Su Qian Han returned to his room, it was already late.

"Prince, you've returned." Beside him, Qing`er was pulling a wooden tray with a pot of tea and two silver cups on it. "According to your instructions, the young lady is currently pregnant and unable to drink wine, so we exchanged our wine for scented tea that would not harm her womb."

"Very good." Su Qian Han nodded, but his gaze was focused on the person on the bed opposite him.

She was dressed in red, and she was sitting on the edge of the bed. Her head was covered with a red veil, and her pretty face was hidden behind it.

Su Qianhan had never seen her like this before. His eyes lit up, and at the same time, they darkened.

Greeting …

Riko originally wanted to see the two of them drink before leaving. Now that she saw Su Qianhan acting in such a manner, she got Qing`er to place the things in her hands to the side and retreat in an observant manner.

There were only two people left in the room. Su Qianhan narrowed his eyes and subconsciously said, "Qing Qing …"

He stepped forward and touched the edge of her head. The silk was so fine and soft that he could feel the warmth of her body on it, with something that made him addicted.

The hood slid down her shoulder and onto the floor, revealing his face that had been so haunting.

Xiao Qing had been holding back her anger all day. She had wanted to scold him in front of the man, but when she saw the excitement and happiness in his eyes, she felt her heart soften.

Thinking back, it had been seven or eight years since she had transmigrated. She couldn't recall much of the modern affairs, and from meeting this man until now, it hadn't been smooth sailing. She hadn't thought that this day would come, and she had given up everything for a man before, but now, a man had given up everything for her.

Perhaps, this was the final reason why she was able to follow the man in front of her until now.

A gentle smile appeared on the corner of Xiao Qing Ran's mouth as she wrapped her arms around his neck. With a soft and gentle tone, she said, "Qian Han."

These two short words were like a burning red arrow piercing his heart, causing his entire body to feel as if it was burning hot. The degree of that burning even seemed to be able to incinerate the person in front of him.

It was only at this moment that he truly felt this woman in front of him belonged to him.
