Chapter 97
"Understood." Gu Hongchao nodded.

He was dressed in a groom's official wedding attire today, which was even more festive than when he got married. Surrounded by his friends, he walked out of the Gu family gate.

Riding on Shenjun's maroon horse, Gu Hongchao couldn't help but glanced at the street on the right side of the Gu family gate.

This street is the only way from the eldest princess's mansion to the Gu family.

Gu Hongchao narrowed his eyes, Qin Shuhuang, let's see how long she can endure it!
When mounting the horse, Gu Hongchao whispered to Chang Sui, "If the eldest princess comes back, tell me immediately."

"Yes, young master."

Bai Lingge was originally an orphan without a father or mother, so she naturally had no natal family.

In order to prevent Bai Lingge from being looked down upon by others, Gu Hongchao specially spent money to arrange for Bai Lingge to recognize an old priest as his adoptive father.

Yesterday, Gu Hongchao sent Bai Lingge to Lao Jiaoyu's home in Xicheng. He personally arranged a boudoir for Bai Lingge in Jiaoyu's home and left people to take care of and protect her.

There are many people in the old teacher's family, so if he wants to make this marriage decent and lively, it will naturally cost a lot of money, and the 5000 taels of silver that Gu Hongchao took from his father-in-law is therefore very little left.

He didn't care too much, since he was a child, money was not a problem for him.

All the way to the outside of the old teacher's courtyard in Xicheng, this alley has long been crowded with people who came to see the fun, people congratulating, begging for candies... it was very lively.

There were barriers from the main entrance to the side entrance to the boudoir yard. Gu Hongchao "passed five passes and killed six generals" before arriving in front of Bai Lingge's boudoir, but instead of being excited, he became disgusted and impatient.

At this moment, he suddenly regretted arranging such a family for Bai Lingge. He would have known better to find someone with a simpler population and pick them up as soon as they arrived.

Bai Lingge was wearing a bright red wedding dress embroidered with clouds. She was dressing up in the mirror and listening to the noisy people outside. She pursed her lips and smiled, sweetness beyond words.

The maid walked in happily and reported, "Girl, my uncle has arrived at the door and is being asked by the young masters to write poems for makeup!"

After composing two poems and Chang Sui throwing countless copper coins, Gu Hongchao finally received Bai Lingge.

He personally helped Bai Lingge onto the sedan chair.

A huge procession of wedding guests walked towards Gu's house.

In the end, 32 dowries followed, which looked spectacular.

It's just that the dowry and bride price were all prepared by Gu Hongchao alone, and more than half of them were just for the face of the show, just to look good.

People watching the excitement on both sides of the street were talking.

"Who is this big wedding, such a big battle. It has been many years since Beijing and China have such a grand occasion."

Another person whispered: "I heard it's the young master of the Gu family."

"Ah? Isn't Young Master Gu the consort? Why are you getting married? I remember that there was no such ceremony when the princess consort got married."

"Don't you know? It has long been rumored that the son-in-law and the princess are at odds. Young Master Gu is married to the second wife!"

"Ah? The Gu family doesn't want to hang out anymore?"

"I think the Gu family has nothing to worry about. Her Royal Highness the Princess loves Young Master Gu so much, and the Princess has been married for three years and has no children..." The man shook his head while talking.

"But the princess is a princess after all! Just bear it like this?"

"Although the eldest princess is the biological sister today, the regent is still in charge... The eldest princess cannot stand up on her own, and the emperor has nothing to do."

……

The comments of the people on the road reached the ears of Mr. Luo, who was sitting in the teahouse drinking tea.

He was stunned, and asked the book boy next to him in a low voice, "Is the eldest princess looking back at the house?"

While making tea for Mr. Luo, the book boy said: "Sir, the people we sent have reported in half an hour, saying that the eldest princess has not left the mansion."

Hearing this news, Mr. Luo raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and suddenly felt that the tea in the cup in front of him became delicious.

The Gu family's wedding convoy arrived at the gate of the Gu Mansion. Except for those who knew that Gu Hongchao was marrying the second wife, those who didn't knew thought that he was getting married again.

From the moment the bride gets off the sedan chair, there is no difference from the wedding ceremony.

After jumping off the horse, Gu Hongchao did not pick up Bai Lingge immediately, but asked Chang Sui, "No news yet?"

Chang Sui shook his head in embarrassment, and then hurriedly comforted him, "Don't worry, Eldest Young Master. Maybe the Eldest Princess will be here in a while. The Eldest Princess cares so much about Eldest Young Master, it is impossible not to show up today."

Gu Hongchao snorted coldly. If he weren't surrounded by relatives and friends and he needed to control his emotions, his face would definitely look extremely ugly at this moment.

The bride was welcomed into the gate of Gu Mansion.

Gu Hongchao was holding one end of the red silk, Bai Linge was holding the other end of the red silk, a piece of red silk was connecting the two of them, time seemed to stop, back to three years ago, he and Qin Shuhuang were holding each other's red silk like this silk.

Gu Hongchao couldn't help but look back, but what he met was not Qin Shuhuang's expectant eyes, but Bai Lingge's charming eyes.

Gu Hongchao was stunned for a moment, then smiled stiffly.

Entering the main hall, Gu Long and Mrs. Gu sat at the main seats.

There is an empty seat next to the two of them, obviously reserved for Qin Shuhuang, but the person sitting in this seat has not appeared yet.

Except for the Gu family, who had a trace of anxiety and worry in their eyes, everyone else was waiting to see how the scene would go on.

Xiniang led the couple into the main hall, but after just a few steps, Gu Hongchao stopped and stopped. Bai Lingge, who was one step behind, had no choice but to stop too.

Xi Niang didn't know what was going on, so she could only go to Gu Hongchao's side and remind him in a low voice, "Master, the auspicious time has come, if you don't visit the hall, you will miss the auspicious time."

But after hearing these words, Gu Hongchao remained motionless. Xiniang didn't know what to do, so she had to look at Mrs. Gu in the first seat and ask Mrs. Gu for help.

Mrs. Gu clutched the handkerchief in her hand, even more anxiously than Gu Hongchao, and Gu Long's face slowly darkened next to her.

Mrs. Gu beckoned to Madam Ge beside her, and Madam Ge hurried over, "Madam, what are your orders?"

"Go and inform Xi Niang and ask her to delay until the eldest princess comes no matter what."

Grandma Ge was startled, knowing the stakes, she nodded quickly and found an excuse to pull Xiniang aside to inform her.

As a result, many strange rules suddenly appeared in the main hall.

When the relatives and friends watching the ceremony couldn't stand it, Butler Gu hurried in and whispered to Mrs. Gu: "Madam, Her Royal Highness the Princess's carriage has arrived at the door of the mansion."

Mrs. Gu's high-hanging heart finally fell, she hurriedly said: "Then why are you standing there, quickly invite the princess in."

"Hey!"

Without taking a breath, Butler Gu left in a hurry.

Mrs. Gu raised her head and straightened her clothes. Her confidence and arrogance returned instantly.

Mrs. Gu got the news, and Gu Hongchao also found out at the same time.

At this time, Gu Hongchao whispered in Bai Lingge's ear: "Lingge, don't worry, even if the eldest princess stops you, today you will be my side wife!"

Bai Lingge, who was wearing a red hijab, responded shyly.

It's just that he suddenly felt that Gu Hongchao's words seemed too deliberate.

Ever since the carriage of the princess's mansion arrived at the gate of Gu's mansion, it has attracted everyone's attention...
