The Fate of Love Zhang Lin

Chap 37: His Wedding Day! (Part 2)

Sacrifice

A word full of mystery

The word makes love bigger

The word can make the wound go deeper

And that word

Able to make memories

Sweet memories become bitter

Bitter memories become sour

Sacrifice

Very profound words

Loving when accompanied by love

Full of grief if accompanied by vengeance

That morning the wedding preparations were finished and the two brides were brought to the front of the altar to carry out this sacred wedding ceremony witnessed by many who loved the emperor Xiao San.

The two performed the wedding ceremony in a sacred manner, they paid each other respects five times. The first honor goes to the creator, the second to nature, the third to ancestry, the fourth homage is addressed to their parents and the fifth two brides pay tribute to each other.

...

"Happy noble. Happy empress. May your majesty and consort be happy. May your majesty and empress be given a bright little prince." said all the people who witnessed the wedding....

The whole people were happy and followed the party happily. The two brides accompanied them to a party until midnight. Then the bride and groom were taken to Emperor Xiao San's room and performed the next ceremony of drinking the bride's wine and consummating the marriage.

Both brides were escorted into the room and given the opportunity to perfect their bridal night.

Emperor Xiao San opened the cover of Empress Zheng Fei's face and looked at her gently. She looked at her empress for quite a while and the empress was only speechless looking at her husband who was just staring at her.

"The Empress." said emperor Xiao San opening his voice and said softly.

"I'm sorry I haven't been able to perfect our marriage. Give me some time. If I am ready to touch you, I will come to you." said emperor Xiao San smiled faintly and held his hand gently.

"Your majesty" said empress Zheng Fei surprised at the words she heard.

"Now sleep in my bed and I will sleep in my reading room" said the emperor Xiao San and left without turning his head.

Empress Zheng Fei was greatly shocked and injured, her tears instantly dripping down her soft cheeks.

"Your majesty, why are you treating me like this?" empress Zheng Fei said in a heart full of sadness.

That night behind a wedding full of happiness, the bride and groom hurt each other.

Empress Zheng Fei lay on her husband's bed, sleeping on her side of the bed, stroking the bed next to her and crying incessantly. She was very hurt, the night the bride she was abandoned by her husband.

"But it turned out that the good dream was just a nightmare. You left me and said those cruel words. Have I never been in your noble heart?" empress Zheng Fei was getting hurt.

"Do I deserve all this, Your Majesty? why is there only Empress Zhang Lin in your heart? can I really not replace him?" empress Zheng Fei said softly and felt her chest tightening.

Throughout the night she kept crying and thinking about her husband's attitude. She loved her husband very much and wanted to have him whole.

That morning she opened her eyes, tears had already dried up on her cheeks and her heart wounds were trying to be covered.

"Your Majesty, I will make you fall in love with me. I will remove the name of Empress Zhang Lin in your heart and engrave my name on your heart." empress Zheng Fei said inwardly affirming her heart so as not to get hurt again.

She cleans up to meet her husband. Both showed their pretenses. They displayed a happy hue in front of the emperor Fang Yi's family and the palace officials.

"Your Majesty because this marriage has been very well and full of excitement, tomorrow afternoon we beg you to leave to return to Fang's kingdom" said emperor Fang Yi politely.

"Hm, isn't that in a hurry?" emperor Xiao San.

"I'm sorry, your majesty, it's just that we were told by General Zhang Ye that there is a state of emergency in the palace that we must deal with immediately" Emperor Fang Yi said politely.

"Hmm, fine if it can't be delayed anymore. I won't keep you here much longer." said emperor Xiao San slowly as he looked towards empress Zhang Lin.

"Then what about our previous agreement?" asked emperor Xiao San without further ado.

"What promise is your honor?" emperor Fang Yi asked a little confused.

"Hm, empress Zhang Lin's promise to give your daughter to me" said emperor Xiao San who shocked everyone.

Emperor Fang Yi and empress Zhang Lin were surprised, they forgot the promise and finally the time to keep the promise had come. The two married men fell silent and did not answer Emperor Xiao San's question.

"Your majesty, what does all this mean?" said empress Zheng Fei who suddenly broke the gripping atmosphere.

"We will take care of their child, their daughter will be my adopted daughter. You must accept and take good care of my adopted daughter." said emperor Xiao San who made the half-wounded heart now become a thorough wound in the heart of empress Zheng Fei.

"Hmm, I won't break my promise. Tomorrow I will hand over my daughter to you." said empress Zhang Lin as she lowered her already visibly sad face.

"thank you. Tomorrow we will hold the ceremony of the appointment of my daughter." said emperor Xiao San who sounded very happy.

They continued their meal until it was over, then emperor Xiao San left the place and returned to the meeting hall with officials to discuss matters of state affairs while announcing the appointment of princess Bianzi as his adopted daughter.

During the meeting there was a dispute over the pros and cons of the emperor Xiao San's decision. But he remained confident in his stance and did not allow anyone to reject his decision.

Empress Zheng Fei could only fall silent in her room and lament the life that had already suffered so much in the second day after she got married.

"I can't be sad. I have to be strong. I will make my husband love me even if I have to pretend to love that child." said the cynical smiling empress Zheng Fei with a heart that began to have evil value.

It turns out that her sadness and disappointment and fear of loss made the empress' heart black and her gentle temper turned into a mask of obsession to hurt anyone who wanted to take her husband away, though she had to do everything she could to get all the attention and love of her husband.

Empress Zhang Lin and her husband were in the room sitting daydreaming considering that she was going to lose her daughter tomorrow. Empress Zhang Lin continued to hold Zhang Lin's daughter and did not let go.

"I'm sorry Niang son. Forgive Niang for handing you over to her." empress Zhang Lin said in tears as she hugged her daughter tightly.

"This is your destiny. Niang just wanted to say that Niang, Die and your brother love you very sincerely. We never threw you away. We didn't mean to leave you. You know that, don't you, baby?" empress Zhang Lin said softly and shed her tears unstoppably.

"Niang love you. Niang loves you. Niang really loves you, son." said empress Zhang Lin, peeping her daughter's forehead long enough for the tears to fall on her cheeks.

Princess Bianzi could feel her mother's touch full of sadness. His daughter's tiny hands touched her cheeks and smiled broadly. Empress Zhang Lin felt the touch of that tiny hand which made her feel a little calm.

Emperor Fang Yi took turns holding his daughter and hugging her tightly. He could only sigh and stare at his little princess with a look full of sadness.

That night the entire Fang family slept with Bianzi's daughter. They all wanted to accompany princess Bianzi one last time. The night was long and sad. The whole heart felt hurt and tried to endure this fate.
