Chapter 398 Wedding
  Shen Zhuoxi could still sleep, so she put on some clothes and said, "Go get some water to wash up. How are the preparations outside?"
  Zhu Ye opened the curtains for her and said with a smile: "Aunt Ju and Aunt Shi have been busy most of the night. They have already arranged it. Can you go out and take a look?"
  Today is the wedding. Shen Zhuoxi has to wear wedding clothes and cannot wear other clothes, so she simply said: "Let it be a surprise."
  After Zhuye went out to fetch water, Shen Zhuoxi sat in front of the dressing table, always feeling that everything that happened was like a big dream.
  It turns out that they are getting married so soon.
  Fortunately, that person was Jing Muling.
  Thinking of Jing Muling, Shen Zhuoxi's face turned slightly red unconsciously. She raised her hand to touch her cheek and looked at the person in the mirror.
  After raising him for several months, he is finally no longer as scrawny as he was at the beginning, and his facial features are becoming more and more similar to those in the Valley of Miracle Doctors.
  However, he is a few years younger, and his skin is as smooth as cream. Even if he didn't sleep well last night, there is only a faint dark green under his eyes, but his complexion remains the same.
  While she was lost in thought, the door was pushed open by Aunt Ju, followed by Aunt Shi.
  "Second Miss is so happy." The two of them congratulated at the same time, and Granny Shi also joked: "When someone has a happy event, Second Miss is so happy that she can't sleep."
  Shen Zhuoxi smiled and did not explain the reason why he couldn't sleep. He only said: "The two nuns worked very late last night. What were you doing up so early?"
  "Oh, there hasn't been a big happy event in this Shengdu for a long time. Everyone is happy." Aunt Ju smiled and said, "Who can sleep? I saw that even the lamp in the old lady's yard was lit for half the night. Woolen cloth."
  "Besides, Xipo is coming soon. How can we, the maids, be lazy?"
  "Speaking of Xi Po." Aunt Shi took over the words and introduced: "The person here today has decades of experience, despite his age."
  "The first queen, and several concubines, she was the one who took the initiative when the princesses got married. She was really a magic hand. She stopped doing it a few years ago. I don't know how the prince persuaded her to get married."
  Just as he was talking, Huizhi's voice sounded outside: "Miss, Xi Po is here."
  "Please come in." Shen Zhuoxi stood up and said, "Go and prepare some gold leaves to reward people later. I forgot about this yesterday."
  "Don't worry, Sister Huizhi will remember it." Zhuye came over with water and said with a smile: "Everyone has done everything they can think of, and the young lady can just relax and be a beautiful bride."
  "Okay, I feel relieved." Shen Zhuoxi also laughed.
  Xi Po had silver hair and was wearing a dark red dress with a moire pattern. She was full of kindness and said, "My slave, please give my regards to the second young lady."
  "Please get up quickly." Shen Zhuoxi stood up and gave her a little help: "I have to trouble my grandma today."
  "Anyway, it is a slave's blessing to be able to serve the second young lady when she gets married." Grandma Xi looked Shen Zhuoxi up and down, and nodded with satisfaction: "Well, the second young lady has a good foundation."
  "My skin is delicate, my lips are red and my teeth are white. I even need to save a lot of makeup."
  Xipo brought her own tools, kneaded the dough and dressed her hair with skillful techniques, almost in one go.
  "The eyebrows are like distant daisy, the eyes are like waves, and the face is like pink peach. There really is no one here." Xipo was very satisfied with the appearance of the person in the mirror, and said with a smile: "It is quite similar to Princess Xiaoqing back then. No wonder she has blood. It’s connected.”
  "Yes." Speaking of Princess Xiaoqing, Grandma Ju's eyes were slightly red and she said, "This dress reminds me of when Princess Xiaoqing got married. Time passed so fast, and in the blink of an eye, even the young lady was getting married. .”
  Aunt Shi's eyes turned red when she looked at Shen Zhuoxi, and she quickly said: "Don't make the young lady cry on this big day. We are all happy."
  "I'm happy." Grandma Ju quickly raised her hand to wipe it, and said with a smile: "Miss, I ordered someone to prepare some snacks. You can eat some first. It's really lively, and you probably won't be able to have a bite until the afternoon."
  It was still early, and Shen Zhuoxi couldn't eat at all, so he said, "Let's leave it for now. We'll talk about it later when we're hungry. Prepare some tea. I'm thirsty."
  After getting dressed up, it was already bright and it was getting lively outside.
  Yesterday, Shen Zhuoxi rested. Worried about disturbing her rest, the back room was not decorated. Aunt Shi, Aunt Ju and a few confidants took advantage of this opportunity to take care of things.
  After Shen Zhuoxi got dressed, she returned to the couch and sat down, waiting for the auspicious time to come before going out.
  Just when I was feeling bored, there was a burst of laughter outside: "You are not being honest, you are planning to do such a big happy event quietly, don't you want us to be happy?"
  It was Princess Yuqin, and the door was pushed open immediately after.
  Also coming with Princess Yuqin were Wei Zhiting and Wang Yurou.
  Shen Zhuoxi only made friends with a few people. Unexpectedly, they got the news and came to marry him in person.
  When Wang Yurou saw Shen Zhuoxi, her eyes lit up and she couldn't help but praise: "Zhuoxi, you are so beautiful today. No wonder you don't let us know. Can't you hide it for His Highness King Yu to appreciate?"
  "You're not married yet, so you're not ashamed to say this." Wei Zhiting said angrily: "Zhuo Xi is already good-looking, and she didn't wear makeup in the past. Now she looks as beautiful as a fairy."
  "However, your wedding date is not set for the 20th next month, why is it suddenly brought forward?"
  There were too many people, and it was not convenient for Shen Zhuoxi to explain, so he only said: "The prince said that there has been no good news from the royal family for a long time, and he is getting married in advance to celebrate."
  "Eh..." Wang Yurou said in a long tone: "I'm afraid His Highness King Yu can't wait to welcome you in!"
  Wei Zhiting knew something about the inside story, but she didn't reveal it. She followed Wang Yurou's words and said, "It must be true. Everyone knows that the prince is in pain, and there are still rumors about the betrothal gift."
  "With His Royal Highness King Yu as the introduction, it is a bit difficult for this Shengdu man to recruit." Princess Yuqin said, and ordered someone to take out a brocade box and hand it to Shen Zhuoxi: "The wedding date has been brought forward too suddenly."
  "The set of jewelry I originally ordered to prepare for you has not been completed yet, so I can only use this box of jewelry to fill the facade."
  "No, I know you are not short of money, and you have also sent people to find a lot of good medicinal materials." Wei Zhiting also said: "We are still on the way, so I can only pay you first and get some gold and silver to put in the bottom of the box for you."
  Not to be outdone, Wang Yurou took out a box of beads and said, "My brother brought them back from outside. They are all pink. Whatever you want, just ask the craftsmen to do it."
  "You guys are here, I'm already very touched." Shen Zhuoxi glanced at the things they brought and said, "What are we doing with these?"
  "Suddenly something happened to the Shen family." Wei Zhiting stepped forward and held Shen Zhuoxi's hand, saying, "We have been coming to see you for a long time, but something happened to the deposed prince right after."
  "Everyone is in the official residence and it is difficult to get close. We can only come here today. Knowing that you are protected by the Queen Mother and His Royal Highness King Yu, you will not be affected. These are our thoughts."
  "We met so late, but we can't become estranged just because you got married. We will all stay in Shengdu from now on."
  Wang Yurou said sternly: "What Sister Wei is saying is that a few of us are here to send you to the sedan chair. There is no difference between the sisters in your family, whether you have them or not. I'm afraid we won't be able to count on them."
  "It's hard for you to think so carefully." Shen Zhuoxi said with warmth in her heart: "It's my fault that I didn't tell you in advance. It was also because I was in a hurry and decided last night."
  A few people were chatting and laughing, and the room was filled with laughter. Soon, the auspicious time would come.
