Douluo Continent: The Peerless Tang Sect, Angels and Rakshasa Return

Chapter 324 (Reposted, do not subscribe) 339

Amidst the envious gazes of passersby, Qian Lingyun pretended to cover half her face with a small, round, pearl-faced fan and slowly and deliberately got into the sedan chair.

Of course, she wouldn't tell you that she was walking slowly because the clothes were disgusting.

After getting into the sedan chair, the first thing Qian Lingyun did was to pull down the curtain beside her.

She couldn't wait to take off the heavy phoenix coronet and wedding robes from her head.

She leaned back lazily in her chair, tilting her head, and complained to her bridesmaids, "My God! This thing is so heavy! I feel like I have a metal disc on my head..."

"There's nothing I can do, that's the heavy burden of love your mother gave you!" Feng Ling covered her face and chuckled a few times, comforting her, "Don't worry, you only wear this during the wedding ceremony, who would know you took it off when no one's around!"

"Too."

Feng Ling's words offered Qian Lingyun some comfort, even though she knew that Feng Ling and that old man Zhong Liwu had never held a wedding ceremony.

I quickly counted the people in the sedan chair: Feng Ling, Dai Lun, Wu Yun, Wu Yu, Zhang Lexuan, and Shangguan Weier—six people in total. It seems there are two more who haven't gotten on yet…

Qian Lingyun peeked through a crack in the curtain and looked around, puzzled.

"By the way, where are Bai Yuan and Hu Mei? Haven't they come up yet?"

"They have other jobs!" Shangguan Wei'er said mysteriously.

"..."

It must be said that the soundproofing of this sedan chair was excellent; even though Hu Mei was directing the Soul Guidance Chariots outside to set off fireworks, it didn't disturb the people inside.

Along the way, Bai Yuan, who had collected a lot of novel materials from Yuma, diligently fulfilled her duties, scattering money as she went.

She scattered gold, silver, and bronze soul coins everywhere, successfully creating a joyous scene for Qian Lingyun's wedding.

According to incomplete statistics, the money Bai Yuan threw away and the fireworks Hu Mei set off along the distance from the Duke's mansion to the palace amounted to several million.

The sedan chair swayed slowly along the road, and Qian Lingyun leaned back lazily in the chair.

After an unknown amount of time, the sedan chair slowly descended. Qian Lingyun squinted and covered her head with the phoenix coronet and wedding robes again before slowly pulling back the curtain of the sedan chair under the watchful eyes of the assembled officials.

Although she departed later than Qian Lingyun, Yuma arrived at the palace much earlier. She stepped forward from the front of the court officials, took Qian Lingyun's hand as the Crown Princess's mother, and led her down from the sedan chair. Then they walked together towards the palace.

"Woo, woo, woo—" The sound of a long horn, like the low growl of a giant beast, rang out.

Then came the sound of cannons, a total of 108 cannons roaring simultaneously, the rolling sound waves carrying for miles.

Yes, judging from the current situation, the wedding is not complicated, but what follows is the most troublesome.

Honestly, this was the first time Qian Lingyun had ever felt that the distance from the palace gate to the main hall was so far.

"Mom, believe me, some materials really aren't suitable for making clothes!"

Qian Lingyun, who was only focused on walking with her head down, forced out an ugly smile and said in a low voice, which was limited to her and Yuma.

"Bear with it! You only get to wear it once in your life," Yuma said with a serious expression, looking straight ahead.

"?!" Qian Lingyun scanned the area with her mental probe, and seeing only royalty and high-ranking officials, she pouted in surprise and said, "Are you sure! There are so many people here!?"

"Of course I'm not sure, I'm just saying! Don't worry, you can go back to your room and rest after we finish watching the old emperor's story!"

"Really?" Qian Lingyun asked.

"Would I lie to you?" Yuma feigned surprise.

"hehe…"

Left with no other choice, Qian Lingyun could only give an awkward smile.

After a long while, Qian Lingyun and the others finally entered the main hall. The old emperor was sitting upright on the dragon throne, carefully examining his future daughter-in-law. He stroked his beard and thought idly:

[This wedding dress is so dazzling it hurts my eyes! How much did all those jewels cost?!]

"Greetings, Your Majesty/Father!" The two bowed slightly to the old emperor and stood in the center of the hall, waiting for him to exchange pleasantries according to the usual procedure.

"No need for formalities! We're all family now, there's no need for such formalities!" The old emperor stepped down from his dragon throne and helped the two up, then winked wildly at Xu Tianran, who was standing to the side: "Tianran, quickly go and take your Crown Princess from your mother-in-law's arms!"

"yes!"

Xu Tianran was also a little nervous at this moment.

According to the normal procedure, he should have stood outside the palace to greet her, and then led Qian Lingyun into the main hall to meet her father, the emperor.

Unfortunately, he had only just progressed from being able to stand continuously to being able to walk a few steps on the road yesterday.

Walking a few steps might be fine, but if it's a long way... well, who knows!

If he were to bring Qian Lingyun into the palace from outside, and something happened on the way, it would be incredibly embarrassing.

"Come on!" Xu Tianran took Qian Lingyun's hand from Yuma's palm and walked with her to the center of the main hall.

"I bow to Heaven and Earth!"

Because the emperor was presiding over the wedding, the two people, who were both incredibly cunning, instinctively turned to the side and bowed to the old emperor.

The old emperor was taken aback at first, then chuckled, clearly very satisfied with the two young men.

"Bowing to the parents a second time!"

This time, Yuma, as the woman's elder, stood on the steps below the dragon throne, smiling as she looked at her daughter, without glancing at Xu Tianran once.

"Husband and wife bow to each other!"

The two turned to face each other and bowed respectfully to one another.

"The ceremony is complete!"

"The Crown Prince accompanied His Majesty to the ancestral temple to burn incense and pay respects to the ancestors, while the Crown Princess entered the Eastern Palace!"

As a male member of the royal family, Xu Tianran was required to go to the ancestral temple to worship with the old emperor, but Qian Lingyun was allowed to return to the East Palace to rest.

From this moment on, she was the rightful mistress of the Eastern Palace of the Sun Moon Empire, the Crown Princess.

As soon as the old emperor and Xu Tianran stepped out of the main hall, people from the Crown Prince's residence jogged out from the side hall and led Qian Lingyun back to the East Palace. This seamless transition was truly commendable... incredibly professional.

"Your Highness, this way!"

"!?" Upon hearing that familiar voice, Qian Lingyun looked around and saw that no one seemed to be paying attention to her, so she stretched out her finger and poked the soft flesh of the person leading her waist.

"Stop messing around!" Qian Renxue glared at Qian Lingyun, speechless for a moment, a hint of helplessness flashing in her eyes.

"I'm not making a fuss! Give me your hand!" Qian Lingyun dismissed the other attendants and stood still, grabbing Qian Renxue's sleeve to prevent her from leaving.

"You! Tsk tsk tsk, I'm really impressed by you! Can't you stop being so wicked?!" Qian Renxue pouted mischievously and flicked her forehead.
