Ouyang Feilong scolded the former young lady of a major family as he took out his handkerchief to wipe the drops of splattered ink on his face.

“It seems that I’m truly a fool.”

He raised a brow and waited to hear her reason.

“Otherwise, I wouldn’t give Your Majesty all my heart like this.”

His hand paused.

“Awwwwww.” Bai Yu beamed wide until her eyes were slits.

“Heh.” The corner of Ouyang Feilong’s mouth curved up. “Continue with the ink.”

Bai Yu shrugged, pretending not to see his smile. Her hand moved to start rubbing the ink stick again when a golden light flew into the peaceful palace. It was a golden magic letter in the form of a phoenix heading straight to Bai Yu.

.....

“This…” A magic letter from Chu Zhaoran!

“Open it.”

“Y…Yes, Your Majesty.”

This time, Ouyang Feilong’s voice was much firmer than when he mentioned Ouyang Wenrou. Bai Yu was unsure why a letter from a foreign emperor suddenly arrived since they had stopped contacting each other ever since her last letter before she became empress. Chu Zhaoran seemed to have an impeccable sense of timing!

‘The seat of Da Chu’s empress is still waiting for Miss Bai.’ The content of Chu Zhaoran’s letter made Bai Yu stiffen. The quick-witted villainess could not even look up from the letter to her husband at all.

“Uh…”

“Empress.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“Grind the inkstick!

—————-

Finally, Qin Wang’s royal marriage was held in a grand ceremony. Citizens flocked to the roads to give blessings as well as to get a glimpse of the brides’ long line of procession. It might not have been as grand as Empress Bai’s when she became Rui Wang Fei, but the fact that there were two brides, a neighboring princess and a young lady from the empress’ family, made the wedding particularly spectacular.

But no matter how elaborate the two brides’ procession was, there was only one groom. Obviously, Ouyang Mingxian had to lead Chu Jiaoxin’s procession.

Bai Yu nodded in sympathy for the man in the red robe on the horse. “In both lives, he could never lead his beloved woman.” She muttered at the recollection of the last life where Ouyang Mingxian rode in front of her bridal palanquin instead of Bai Hua’s.

“What did you say?” Ouyang Feilong could not hear it clearly because of the music from the procession that was moving past them.

“Nothing, Your Majesty.” Bai Yu could not let him know that she had married Ouyang Mingxian in the last life in the series. It was best that he knew only her life as Yoknapha, otherwise his jealousy might have become worse.

A few days after she had ground the inkstick to his satisfaction, the wedding between Bai Hua and Ouyang Mingxian took place. Originally, Bai Yu had no thought of attending the ceremony at all. Her standing here, on the street looking at the bride’s procession, was the result of Ouyang Feilong’s kidnapping her.

Bai Yu did not know why he suddenly wanted to disguise himself and sneak out of the palace. They dressed in commoner clothes, acting like a normal middle-class couple while looking at their third nephew’s auspicious ceremony. In front of Bai Yu was Chu Jiaoxin’s bridal palanquin, which could attract the attention of the crowd with her status as first consort. People were cheering at the wonderful procession, yet there was not a hint of a smile on the groom’s face.

Others were already used to Qin Wang’s coldness. But Bai Yu knew the truth that not only his lips could not smile, but his heart was in the same state as well. The bridal procession for his beloved woman was completely neglected, despite it being as grand and long as the foreign princess’.

“You’re too cruel.” Her husband teased her when she refused to see her half-sister’s palanquin.

“Your Majesty is the same.”

“Then we’re equal.” Ouyang Feilong gave her a mild smile.

Now Bai Yu knew that this Black Dragon intentionally gave the mandate for the two women to marry at the same time because he was as cruel as her.

“Is this all you wanted me to see after getting out of the palace?” After the red procession had passed, Bai Yu immediately turned to ask the man beside her.

“What do you want to see?”

“I want to go watch a storyteller.”

“Then I’ll take you to this place I know.”

Bai Yu did not wait a moment longer before urging Ouyang Feilong to take her there. Storytelling in this era was a way to spread the news about a popular event during the time. She wanted to know what the citizens were interested in, so she hoped to hear from a storyteller at least once. However, before her husband could lead her to the destination, an undercover soldier came to whisper something to Ouyang Feilong. His sharp brows slightly frowned before he said to her.

“Wait here. Do not wander, understand?”

“Understood.” Though confused, she promised to ease the worry of Ouyang Feilong, who had an emergency to attend to.

As soon as Ouyang Feilong left, undercover soldiers moved to surround her. Feeling the warmth of his care for her, Bai Yu smiled before being distracted by the sound of music from the road next to her.

At first, Bai Yu did not intend to wait to see Bai Hua’s procession. But now that it was going to pass by her, combined with the fact that she should not break her word that she had given to Ouyang Feilong, she could only stand there and calmly watch the palanquin. Bai Hua’s bridal procession was as grand and exquisite as it could be. It was only second to Chu Jiaoxin’s in the number of people carrying her palanquin due to the limitation of her status as second consort. And no matter how magnificent her procession was, the heroine’s palanquin could only enter through the palace’s side gate.

“I heard the second consort is just a daughter of Master Bai’s concubine.”

“She didn’t even have magic at first.”

“But in the Meihua Lady competition, her black-level magic was superb.”

“I heard she’s more beautiful than the Da Chu princess.”

“Really? Let me see.”

The people who were waiting for the bridal palanquin stood on their tiptoes, stretching their necks in an attempt to get a glimpse of the beautiful second consort. Disorder ensued as the crowd all tried to satisfy their curiosity. Hearing their conversations, Bai Yu, too, had an urge to look at the palanquin as well. She did not know what had spurred her on, but she suddenly moved away from the crowd and used her martial skills to bring herself to Qin Wang Palace.

The place where Bai Yu stood was not the grand and lively front gate, but the side one. The arch was decorated beautifully, though the atmosphere was quite lonelier than at the front gate. Bai Yu chose a spot that was not too close or too far from the side gate. She had a good view of the bridal palanquin slowly moving to stop in front of the door.

The personal maid, Xiao Zi, extended her hand in front of the palanquin. Shortly after, a white, delicate hand was put on the maid’s.

A slender figure in an auspicious red dress came down from her palanquin without a silhouette of the groom. Bai Yu watched the scene with a pounding heart. She did not know where such ecstasy came from, but if she had to guess, it could have come from the emotion deeply embedded within this body.

Her heart raced faster as the wind breezed past the lonely bride. A Red veil fluttered, allowing a momentary view of Bai Hua’s face. She was beautiful but void of happiness.

The lips of the spectator bloomed into an uncontrollable wide smile. How I rejoice in your misery.

Bai Hua… My dear sister.
