Chapter 142 Pingyi’s Grand Wedding 2

With  Zheng Changping by her side, there were no more incidents in the following days.

On the day of Pingyi’s grand wedding, Concubine Xin, who had always been calm and composed in the palace, sent Pingyi out of the palace gate with tears and smiles on her face.

As a sister-in-law, Shu Shu Yuwan also came to see Pingyi off and comforted her, “Xin, Pingyi is marrying in the capital, so it will be easy to meet in the future. Don’t be sad.”

Concubine Xin nodded tearfully.

Although the late emperor was indifferent to her, he had arranged Pingyi well before abdicating, and for this, Concubine Xin was very grateful.

Now that Pingyi was married, she would soon move to Xishan Palace.

Thinking of this, she solemnly thanked Shu Shu Yuwan, “Empress Mother, I hope you will take care of Pingyi in the future. I am very grateful.”

Shu Shu Yuwan quickly helped her up and smiled, “Xin, rest assured, Pingyi is a good child, and I also like her very much.”

Concubine Xin felt much relieved. As long as the empress was willing to help Pingyi a little, her days wouldn’t be difficult.

Shu Shu Yuwan successfully sent Pingyi out, and the emperor also personally came over.

As Pingyi’s carriage moved away, the emperor held Shu Shu Yuwan’s hand, and they walked back together.

The emperor sighed, “Pingyi has grown up under our watchful eyes, and now she is married.”

As soon as the emperor said this, Shu Shu Yuwan thought of the fifth prince whom the emperor had watched grow up, and thought of the emperor’s fate in his past life. She couldn’t help but smile inappropriately. She wondered how the late emperor was doing with the virtuous concubine and the fifth prince at Xishan Palace?

“Why are you laughing, Shu Yuwan?” the emperor pretended to be displeased and then smiled to please her, “Pingyi is also married now, the palace is even quieter. Shu Yuwan, give birth to another little princess for me…”

Since he didn’t plan to expand the harem, this task of expanding the family could only fall on Shu Yuwan’s shoulders!

Upon hearing this, Shu Shu Yuwan blushed slightly.

After giving birth to the heir, although her body was fine, she followed the advice of the midwife Yilan to rest and recuperate for a year. Now that a year had passed, it was time to stop the contraceptive medicine. Blushing, Shu Shu Yuwan nodded slightly.

The emperor was very pleased to see this.

With the assistance of  Zheng Changping, the wedding went smoothly and joyfully without any mistakes.

One was the emperor’s sister, and the other was the empress’s nephew. This wedding was probably the grandest feast held by the Zheng Changping’s mansion in recent years.

Shu Yuting was also happy at this moment. After all, it was her son’s wedding, and she felt a sense of pride in the lively atmosphere.

When the guests finally dispersed, Yange was slightly intoxicated. After adjusting his attire and freshening up a bit, Yange finally entered the bridal chamber. As the saying goes, the four joys of life, encountering sweetness after a long drought, meeting old friends in a foreign land, the wedding night, and achieving success, Yange’s mood at that moment was self-evident.

Pingyi sat on the bridal bed, seeing Yange looking dignified, she was also filled with joy.

On the second day, the tea ceremony was held.

Shu Yuting originally intended to advise Pingyi a bit, but thinking of the conversation her son had with her before the wedding, she held back and ended up congratulating the young couple with a smile.

 Zheng Changping and Madam Zheng, needless to say, both treated Pingyi with respect, mixed with affection for the younger generation.

Pingyi also breathed a sigh of relief. Before getting married, the advice from her mother made her think that her future mother-in-law might not be easy to get along with.

Although everyone in the Zheng Changping’s mansion treated her very well, Pingyi decided to follow her mother’s advice. After visiting the palace, meeting the imperial brother, imperial sister-in-law, and mother, she would move to her own princess’s mansion to live.

Living separately would help maintain mutual respect between them.

On the third day, when Pingyi brought Yange to the palace to pay respects, Shu Shu Yuwan finally felt relieved seeing the affectionate interaction between the two. As for Pingyi’s decision to live in the princess’s mansion in the future, Shu Shu Yuwan fully agreed, “That’s good. It’s up to you and Yange to decide.”

Yange smiled, “I’ll go along with Pingyi’s wishes.”

Shu Shu Yuwan couldn’t help but tease her nephew.

She was very pleased. Yange was well brought up. Not living with her sister would be good for both Pingyi and her sister.

On the other hand, Madam Zheng was very disappointed. She had thought that after Yange got married, she could gradually hand over the affairs of the mansion to the princess, but now she found herself still worrying about everything!

What a busy life, sigh!

Having just finished organizing Pingyi’s wedding, Shu Shu Yuwan was now preparing to take a good rest.

Lying in the green grass, with the sun setting in the west, her two children,nwere running around in front of her .Wenyue ran ahead, while Mingcheng, taking his first steady steps, followed behind, calling out, her sister.  “Sister, sister.”

Wenyue giggled, playing with Mingcheng as they ran around.

A smile unconsciously appeared on Shu Shu Yuwan’s lips.

It seemed that Shu Shu Yuwan deliberately raised the two children together. Surprisingly, Mingcheng’s first words were not “mother” or “father,” but “sister”!

At that moment, Qing Dai came in, still showing a look of surprise on her face.

Qing Dai stood beside Shu Shu Yuwan and whispered softly, “Your Majesty, just now there was news thatWang Fei handed a divorce letter to the royal family, seeking a divorce from Ning Wang.”

“What?”

Shu Shu Yuwan was surprised, sitting up from the soft couch and looking up at Qing Dai.

Qing Dai didn’t repeat herself, knowing that Shu Shu Yuwan had heard clearly, she just nodded affirmatively.

Continuing, she said, “We didn’t know what happened ye have sent someone to inquire.”

Shu Shu Yuwan nodded, greeted the two little ones, and then took Qing Dai to Chengqian Palace.

She went directly to ask the emperor, as the royal family would surely pass on the news to him.

Why did Wang Fei suddenly want a divorce today? But Shu Shu Yuwan knew that no matter the reason, she would surely be reprimanded for this.

Although she maintained her composure, Shu Shu Yuwan’s steps were noticeably faster.

Arriving at Chengqian Palace, the emperor, who initially seemed displeased, relaxed a bit upon seeing Shu Shu Yuwan. Indeed, there were several royal relatives inside, led by the ninth uncle of the late emperor, the highest-ranking member of the royal family today.

The emperor smiled at Shu Shu Yuwan, “Shu Yuwan, you’re here.”

Seeing outsiders present, Shu Shu Yuwan quickly performed the standard courtesy, “I pay my respects to Your Majesty.”

The emperor waved his hand at Shu Shu Yuwan, saying, “No need for formalities, come, have a seat.” Ah Qing quickly brought a chair and placed it next to the emperor.

The royal relatives also greeted Shu Shu Yuwan, and after exchanging greetings with several senior royal relatives, she calmly sat down next to the emperor.

The royal relatives fell silent, all looking at the emperor, who calmly said, “The Empress is the mother of the nation, naturally she is aware. Please continue.”
