Chapter 230 Young Man on a White Horse Drunk in the Spring Breeze 4
So it was Ye Dingzhi!
Xiao Ruojin, sitting in the hall, had a playful look on his face. He had never met Ye Dingzhi in person, but he had seen his wanted poster.
Ye Dingzhi's original name was Ye Yun. His father, Ye Yu, was Emperor Tai'an's sworn brother and the Pillar General of Beili. Unfortunately, Emperor Tai'an was wary of him and allowed Ye Yu to be framed by the Prince of Qing, resulting in the extermination of the entire family. In the end, only Ye Dingzhi managed to escape.
Logically, no one should know that Ye Dingzhi was still alive, but for some reason, his identity was suddenly exposed when the academy was recruiting disciples, which led to him being wanted throughout the city.
However, Ye Dingzhi's identity has now been exposed, so why is he coming to Tianqi City instead of hiding properly?
revenge?
But the Ye family's enemy is the Prince of Qing. What is he doing at the Jingyu Prince's Mansion?
Did we take the wrong turn?
Or……
Xiao Ruojin lowered her eyes slightly and looked at Yi Wenjun in front of her.
Is it because of the woman in front of you?
At this moment, the veil on Yi Wenjun's head had fallen off, revealing a face of unparalleled beauty.
She wore a bright red wedding dress on her slender body, the hem of which fluttered gently in the wind, making her seem as light as if she could be carried away by the wind at any moment.
Her skin was as white and flawless as the first snow, and her eyes held a pitiful look, as if any storm could easily break her.
However, this seemingly delicate and beautiful woman is actually a powerful figure in the Free and Easy Realm, and has already approached the Unfettered Heaven Realm.
Such a woman, skilled in martial arts, from a good family, and beautiful, even a nobleman like myself, who is used to seeing spring flowers and autumn moons, could still fall in love at first sight and request the imperial decree to bring her into the mansion as a concubine with the respect due to a secondary wife.
If Ye Dingzhi really came for her, it's not impossible.
If you calculate their ages, Yi Wenjun is only just past the age of marriage, while Ye Dingzhi is only eighteen or nineteen years old. They are a perfect match, a handsome man and a beautiful woman... what a load of rubbish.
Now, Xiao Ruojin is Yi Wenjun's rightful husband. If Ye Dingzhi really came to steal the bride today, and Yi Wenjun also hopes to leave with Ye Dingzhi, wouldn't he be cuckolded by these two? He would become a complete joke.
He had just felt ashamed because the original owner of this body was an old cow eating young grass, marrying a girl more than ten years younger than himself, and was thinking about how to properly deal with Yi Wenjun in the future.
But that girl was up to something big! She quietly cheated on the original owner of the body with a cuckold's horns!
Oh! No, that's not right!
He's now Xiao Ruojin, so this label has been put on his head.
Xiao Ruojin was speechless. Then she saw Xiao Ruofeng, dressed in green, walk steadily to them, bend down and pick up Yi Wenjun's red veil that had fallen to the ground, and say to Yi Wenjun meaningfully, "Sister-in-law, the veil was blown off by the wind."
As he spoke, Xiao Ruofeng smiled politely, gentle and warm, refined and elegant, displaying the demeanor of a true gentleman. He also took the opportunity to whisper something quickly in Yi Wenjun's ear as he reached out to hand over the veil.
Xiao Ruojin witnessed this scene...
Dude, tell me the truth, do you also want to cheat on me?
Xiao Ruofeng was unaware of Xiao Ruojin's thoughts. He was currently watching Yi Wenjun silently. Seeing her slowly dissipate the true energy she had gathered, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief. But then he was overwhelmed with immense guilt.
Xiao Ruofeng is someone who habitually disciplines himself with moral standards far exceeding those of ordinary people. If it were anyone else in this situation, they wouldn't feel as guilty as he does.
But he was the one who encountered this kind of thing.
If Xiao Ruofeng were just an ordinary wanderer of the martial arts world, he would definitely step forward to help Ye Dingzhi steal the bride and bring happiness to the two lovers.
Unfortunately, he was born into the royal family, and he absolutely could not stand by and watch his own brother be kidnapped and lose face for the Northern Li royal family.
So he could only suppress his guilt and destroy the happiness of a loving couple with his own hands.
Xiao Ruofeng sighed silently. He had already wronged Ye Dingzhi and Yi Wenjun by personally severing their marriage today, so he had to protect Ye Dingzhi's life.
There was no more movement outside the door; Xiaoying had probably taken Ye Dingzhi away safely.
As Ye Dingzhi's roar faded, the whispering people in the hall quickly returned to normal, as if the roar had never happened and they hadn't seen the tear stains on the bride's face. The atmosphere in the hall became lively again, as if everything had returned to normal.
With the help of her maids, Yi Wenjun put her veil back on. As her vision was once again obscured by the veil, her heart returned to its stagnant state.
"Brother?" Xiao Ruofeng couldn't help but whisper a reminder when he saw that Xiao Ruojin didn't move.
Xiao Ruojin lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment, then smiled, took the red silk, and led Yi Wenjun to the hall.
The master of ceremonies had been waiting for a long time. Seeing the two newlyweds finally in place, he breathed a sigh of relief. After wiping the sweat from his forehead, he couldn't wait to announce the ceremony loudly: "Your Highness and Your Highness, please... Oh no, why has Your Highness fainted?"
Amidst the horrified gazes of the crowd, Yi Wenjun's body slumped backward, but just as she was about to fall, Xiao Ruojin caught her and handed her to the maids and nannies behind her, saying, "Quickly, summon the imperial physician!"
The crowd in the hall instantly erupted into chaos.
Xiao Ruojin left Xiao Ruofeng behind to appease the guests in the hall, while she anxiously led her people back to the inner quarters to wait for the imperial physician to examine Yi Wenjun, behaving as a proper husband.
The imperial physician Xiao Ruojin invited was naturally someone she trusted. The old physician was almost sixty years old, and his beard was already gray.
Hearing that Consort Jingyu had suddenly fainted and lost consciousness during the wedding ceremony, the old imperial physician was terrified, thinking she was going to die. He rushed to the palace with his medicine chest, and before he could even catch his breath, he began to take Yi Wenjun's pulse through a handkerchief. But when he placed his fingers on Yi Wenjun's wrist—
Ok?
The pulse is fine!
But why do people faint?
The old doctor stroked his beard, deep in thought.
"How about the concubine?"
Xiao Ruojin sat at the table, leisurely poured herself a cup of tea, and sipped it slowly, showing no trace of the anxiety she had shown in the hall earlier.
Yi Wenjun was unwilling to marry him, so why would he want to marry Yi Wenjun?
He hadn't refused before, but since the original owner had personally requested the marriage and he arrived late, he hadn't had a chance to refuse.
But after what happened at the wedding banquet, he really couldn't stand it anymore.
There are only three people in the room now: him, Yi Wenjun, and the old imperial physician. Yi Wenjun is unconscious, so there is really no need for him to hide himself.
The old imperial physician carefully examined his complexion and said, "Your Highness is alright..."
Xiao Ruojin looked up and saw a teacup placed on the table, making a slight clinking sound.
