***Eastern Institutions***
Chang Ru sat inside the red palanquin of the bride with a very happy and confident mood.
Her wish to become the crown princess and be honored by all the people of the Kingdom of Wei will soon be realized.
In Chang Ru's mind it was already imagined how she and Wei Wu Xian went through the bridal night so that Yang Zi could only cry in the other bridal room.
Chang Ru was determined to conquer Wei Wu Xian so that she could become pregnant and strengthen her position as crown princess.
"The crown prince is welcome to kick the palanquin of the crown princess and the chief concubine Yang Zi!"
A loud eunuch voice echoed in the Eastern Palace. The wide smile on Chang Ru's face disappeared instantly.
"Damn it! Si ja*ang Yang Zi has arrived at the Eastern Palace!" inner Chang Ru.
Wei Wu Xian kicked both palanquins of the bride. A Ling and A Mei immediately led Chang Ru down from the red stretcher, while Yang Zi was led by her two personal servants, Ning Ning and Ching Ching. Both of their personal servants became first-rate servants, who were in charge of serving Chang Ru and Yang Zi directly.
Wei Wu Xian walked up to Chang Ru to open the red cloth of the head covering, then walked up to Yang Zi and did the same.
The red head covering had to be opened first because the three of them were going up the long stairs.
Chang Ru and Yang Zi stepped over the red brazier with the help of level one maids respectively, while
Wei Wu Xian stood under the steps waiting for the two brides.
The high officials and great generals had already gathered in the Eastern Palace to witness the wedding of the crown prince of the Kingdom of Wei.
Chang Ru and Yang Zi stepped gracefully toward Wei Wu Xian. The two of them smiled widely and looked at Wei Wu Xian with sparkling gazes.
Wei Wu Xian wore a red wedding dress and a small smile greeted the two brides.
The smile was just a fake smile instead of a sincere smile from the bottom of Wei Wu Xian's heart.
He did marry two brides today, but none of them were wanted by Wei Wu Xian.
In the tradition of the Kingdom of Wei, only the official wife undergoes all the complete wedding ritual processions. Therefore, Wei Wu Xian only extended a hand to Chang Ru.
Chang Ru glanced at Yang Zi and gave a triumphant smile as she greeted Wei Wu Xian's helping hand.
"Yang Zi's! I am the crown princess! You are just a concubine and must pay respect to me every day!" inner Yang Zi.
Wei Wu Xian and Chang Ru climbed the stairs while holding hands, while Yang Zi followed them from behind.
Although Yang Zi's heart was hurt and disappointed, but she clearly remembered the message from her father, Prime Minister Yang Kun.
Prime Minister Yang Kun firmly believed Yang Zi could become the crown princess in place of Chang Ru due to the promise of Queen Wen.
Of course Prime Minister Yang Kun had to give full support to Wei Wu Xian so that the promise of Queen Wen could be realized quickly.
When he arrived at the very top of the stairs, Wei Wu Xian brought Chang Ru in through the main door to perform a procession of respect.
While Yang Zi was picked up by the palace lady-in-waiting and taken to the groom-prepared room.
***
Emperor Wei and Queen Wen sat side by side waiting for a procession of respect from Wei Wu Xian and Chang Ru.
Today was the first time the two of them met after the events of Emperor Wei being furious and taking over the power of the back palace from the hands of Queen Wen.
During these seven days Queen Wen showed repentance and often prayed at the royal temple. However, Emperor Wei still did not intend to fully forgive all of Queen Wen's mistakes.
Wei Wu Xian's marriage as crown prince of the Kingdom of Wei led Emperor Wei to allow Queen Wen to attend.
Emperor Wei's silent attitude towards her, did not disappoint Queen Wen. Queen Wen was very confident Emperor Wei's anger would dissipate as time passed.
One grand plan had already been perfectly drawn up by Queen Wen and would be realized by the time the golden opportunity arrived.
Wei Wu Xian and Chang Ru knelt before Emperor Wei and Queen Wen to serve tea.
Emperor Wei's face beamed receiving the teacup and Wei Wu Xian and Chang Ru, then gulped it down.
A fake smile also adorned at the corner of Queen Wen's lips. The smile disappeared instantly upon seeing the two golden phoenix bracelets coiling around Chang Ru's wrist.
"A really stupid girl! Destroying all my perfect plans!" inner Queen Wen.
Queen Wen already knew Emperor Wei would allow Li Chang Le to wear the jewelry of the late Queen Xu on her wedding day. Even so, at least the gift jewelry from him was still kept by Li Chang Le.
Queen Wen could have Li Chang Le wear that phoenix gold bracelet at another important celebration so that Li Chang Le would definitely be poisoned and could be controlled by Queen Wen. However, all of this was in vain because the greedy Chang Ru took all the gifts from him for Li Chang Le.
Emperor Wei and Queen Wen left the Eastern Palace after the completion of the tribute procession, while Wei Wu Xian was with the invited guests toast.
Chang Ru was ushered by the palace lady to her bridal room. A Ling and A Mei were already waiting there.
They served Chang Ru a bath and changed new clothes. Some of the jewels on Chang Ru's body were already neatly stored inside the jewelry box, but a pair of phoenix gold bracelets were still coiled around Chang Ru's wrist. Chang Ru was very fond of the phoenix gold bracelet and wanted to show it off to Yang Zi tomorrow morning.
Chang Ru also ate a little to fill her empty stomach since morning.
Chang Ru's face beamed awaiting Wei Wu Xian's arrival. The white silk cloth on the red sheet was not a big deal for Chang Ru anymore as she had already trapped Wei Wu Xian into having a friendly relationship at the dining establishment some time ago.
***The Zi bridal room***
Yang Zi had already finished bathing and was wearing a new red-colored outfit. Currently Yang Zi was sitting pensively staring at the red candlelight on the table.
"Will concubine Yang Zi eat a little?" ask Ning Ning.
Yang Zi had no appetite at all. His mood was very agitated and sad. Tonight was her first night, but she had to sleep alone in a red bed.
Yang Zi took a deep breath, then stood up from the seat and walked towards the bed.
Yang Zi's hand touched the red bedsheet and also the white silk cloth there.
"Ning Ning Ching! You can come out! I'm gonna take a break now!"
"Well, Concubine Yang Zi!" replied Ning Ning and Ching Ching simultaneously.
"The crown prince is arriving!"
The loud voice of the eunuch outside the room made Yang Zi flinch and stand up from the bed, while Ning Ning and Ching Ching smiled happily as Wei Wu Xian was going to spend the night in Yang Zi's room, while Ning Ning and Ching Ching smiled happily as Wei Wu Xian was going to spend the night in Yang Zi's room, not in the crown princess's room.
Wei Wu Xian quickly stepped onto Yang Zi, then hugged Yang Zi's waist tightly.
Ning Ning, Ching Ching, and the eunuchs immediately walked out of the bridal chamber. They all knew what was going to happen next in the room.
Two eunuchs sent by Queen Wen stood guard outside the door of the room. They took the important task of taking the white silk cloth and taking it to Queen Wen's palace.
While inside the room, Wei Wu Xian was caressing Yang Zi's cheeks.
"Why is concubine Yang Zi surprised by my arrival?" wei Wu Xian.
"I thought that the crown prince would stay in the crown princess's room," Yang Zi replied honestly.
"The ritual of the wedding procession with the crown princess is just a formality. I want to spend the first night with you."
Without waiting for an answer from Yang Zi, Wei Wu Xian laid her on the bed, then kissed her aggressively.
One by one, clothes were thrown to the floor. Yang Zi tried to endure the pain in his body that was caused by Wei Wu Xian's aggressive attack.
Wei Wu Xian smiled in satisfaction as he looked at the white silk cloth filled with red stain spots.
Of course Wei Wu Xian chose to spend the first night in Yang Zi's room because Yang Zi was still a saint. Wei Wu Xian had already sworn inwardly not to touch the filthy Chang Ru.
Wei Wu Xian wrapped Yang Zi's plain body in a thick blanket. Sweat was still pouring down on both of them.
"Come in!" wei Wu Xian's.
The two eunuchs who were guarding outside, walked into the room and approached the bed. The two lowered their heads and did not dare to look at Wei Wu Xian nor Yang Zi.
One of the eunuchs took a white silk cloth from the top of the bed and folded it, while the other eunuch opened a small box as a place to store the white silk cloth.
In a short time, the two eunuchs had already left the bridal chamber. Wei Wu Xian opened the thick blanket that wrapped around Yang Zi's body.
Wei Wu Xian stared at Yang Zi's face. The effects of wine and drunkenness made Wei Wu Xian hallucinate so that Yang Zi's face turned into Li Chang Le's face.
It caused the blood turmoil of young Wei Wu Xian to appear again so kiss Yang Zi's lips and start yet another fantasy adventure. This time Yang Zi also gave an aggressive reply thinking Wei Wu Xian already liked him.
***Chang Ru's bridal room***
It was late at night, but Chang Ru was still faithfully waiting for Wei Wu Xian's arrival.
Chang Ru thought Wei Wu Xian was drunk heavily at the wedding reception so ordered A Ling and A Mei to find out Wei Wu Xian's whereabouts.
A Ling and A Mei walked over to Chang Ru with pale and frightened faces. A bad premonition haunted Chang Ru's mind quickly.
"Where is the crown prince?"
"The crown prince stayed in Consort Yang Zi's room!" a Ling replied carefully.
Chang Ru picked up the wine pitcher from the table and intended to throw it on the floor. A Ling and A Mei had already retreated a few footsteps to avoid the shards of the teapot.
The two servants were astonished at not listening to the sound of broken teapots. It turned out that Chang Ru's hand was still tightly grasping the wine teapot.
Chang Ru realized she was currently in the Eastern Palace and not in the Residence of General Li Jin.
She had already become the crown princess and it was certain that for the future there would be many concubines who would stay in the Eastern Palace so her living room would often be empty due to Wei Wu Xian staying in other rooms.
"Get out!"
A Ling and A Mei immediately exited the bridal chamber. The two of them felt relieved for not getting any punishment from Chang Ru.
While Chang Ru climbed onto the bed and lay there."Today you can laugh, Yang Zi! I'll win tomorrow!" inner Chang Ru.
Chang Ru was still trying to think positively that Wei Wu Xian spent the first night in Yang Zi's room wanting to hand over the white silk cloth as evidence to Queen Wen.
The white silk cloth was only installed on the first night. While the following nights did not require white silk cloth so Chang Ru thought she still had a chance to have a friendly relationship with Wei Wu Xian later.
