Chapter 234 She's not a local specialty
The next day, just as Xuan Yuan had said the night before, the imperial edict of marriage bestowed by Emperor Yuan was delivered to the General's Mansion early in the morning. Everyone who knew the inside story was quite frightened by this sudden decree. After all, His Majesty had declared in front of all the civil and military officials and envoys from the three kingdoms that he would make Princess Danhua his empress. What was going on? How did Xin Moyan become the Princess Consort of Xuan?
"elder brother!"
Holding the imperial edict in her hands, Xin Moyan excitedly ran to him and Shui Yi.
"Yan'er, are you happy now?"
It wasn't hard to hear the bitterness in Xin Moling's words; her beloved younger sister had been kidnapped just like that...
"Hee hee~"
Xin Moyan hugged Shui Yi's other arm and said with a flattering smile, "Brother, I have gained a sister-in-law, Shui Yi, and you have gained a brother-in-law, Xuan Yuan. We are both equally happy!"
"Yan'er, don't joke with your sister!" Shui Yi's face gradually flushed, and she became a little embarrassed.
"Where? Sister Shuiyi, this is no joke. I like you so much! You should marry my brother soon!"
Xin Moling sighed and tapped his younger sister's head. "You silly girl, you're just making things up on purpose. Do you think your brother is going to settle scores with His Majesty and Xuan Yuan again?"
"So... Brother, you've really accepted Xuan Yuan now, right?" She blinked, as if trying to see the answer on his face.
"His character remains to be seen; he has a long road ahead of him!"
"Yes, brother is right."
"That's pretty much it."
"Ah Ling, didn't you say you had important business at the military camp? Go ahead and do your work, I want to talk to Yan'er."
With tenderness radiating from her delicate features, Shui Yi nodded to him, signaling him to go ahead and handle things with peace of mind.
"it is good!"
Xin Moling returned a gentle smile, "Yan'er, take Yi'er for a walk around the manor. Your brother isn't here, so you're not allowed to go out."
Xin Moyan sighed, "Brother, you're making it sound like we're children, that we can't go out to play when you're not around."
"Listen to me, it's dangerous outside." His expression was slightly serious.
"Alright, brother, don't worry. Sister Yi'er and I will stay at home and not go anywhere."
Hearing his sister's assurance, he was relieved and instructed Hongluan to stay in the mansion to take care of them before leaving the general's mansion.
The two were very obedient and did not run around. Xin Moyan led Shui Yi to the back garden, where she usually liked to stay quietly.
"Yan'er, I haven't even had a few days to spend with you before you say you're getting married."
Shui Yi frowned, her expression showing some disappointment and regret.
"Hehe~ Sister Yi'er, it's okay. Xuan Yuan promised Brother that we will live with Brother and Sister-in-law in the future, so you can see me every day!"
"That's different!"
"Hmm? What's different?"
Xin Moyan couldn't help but feel puzzled. Even though she was married to Xuan Yuan, wasn't she still her brother's sister?
Shui Yi sighed softly, "I like Yan'er very much, like sisters in an ordinary family. Now that Yan'er has suddenly said she wants to get married, I feel a little reluctant. That Prince Xuan... won't bully Yan'er in the future, right?"
She was stunned for a moment, not expecting that her sister Yi'er had this idea. However, she was very happy. Her sister Yi'er was not only gentle and considerate, but also a perfect match for her brother. She even liked her very much and was worried that Xuan Yuan might bully her in the future. Her sister Yi'er really treated her like her own sister.
“Sister Yi’er, Xuan Yuan is a very good person. You don’t know, he has helped me a lot behind my back. Don’t worry, he won’t bully me. Besides, Uncle Xie said that Xuan Yuan is not the kind of heartless and ungrateful person who would abandon someone after starting a relationship.”
Her gentle eyes were still filled with worry. "Yan'er, although we haven't known each other for long, I've already regarded you as my younger sister. If you ever feel unhappy in the future, please tell your older sister, and I will stand up for you."
"Thank you, Sister Yi'er, you're so kind!"
Hearing this, Xin Moyan felt a warm glow in her heart. She was also happy for her brother, who had managed to find such a gentle and kind girlfriend as Sister Yi'er.
Inside Junjing Pavilion, Hua Buyu let out a long sigh; this was the hundredth sigh she had uttered that day.
Looking at the smiling, annoying guy in front of her, she shouted impatiently, "Yun Zhaoyao, can you get lost?"
Yun Zhaoyao narrowed her eyes, her gaze innocent and clear like a fawn's. "Sister Hua, I haven't caused you any trouble here!"
"But I find it really annoying that you're always hanging around in front of me!"
"Then...then I'll move away a bit."
As he spoke, he shifted his body to the side, showing no intention of leaving, which left Hua Buyu speechless.
"Can't you go back? Or, you could take advantage of these few days of court meetings to wander around and buy some local specialties to take back with you. Don't just follow me around."
"Hmm~ Sister Hua, I don't want to bring anything, I just want to take you back."
Hua Buyu's lips twitched. She wasn't some kind of local specialty...
Then, she waved her hand behind her.
"Miss Hua?"
"Shopkeeper, please put away the boxes I marked earlier, and send the rest to the Xuanwang Mansion."
"Yes, Miss Hua."
Seeing her clap her hands and straighten her hair and clothes, Yun Zhaoyao hurriedly ran forward and asked ingratiatingly, "Sister Hua, are you done with your work?"
"Yes, I'm done with my work for now."
It was only temporary, because she didn't know how many more problems Xuan Yuan had, after all, he valued Yan Yan's affairs the most.
"Sister Hua, is Sister Yan getting married?"
"Ah."
"That night I listened to Emperor Yuan. Is Sister Yan really going to be the Empress?"
"Tsk! What kind of empress? If Yan Yan were the empress, would I be here organizing the betrothal gifts?"
"Then... why is that?"
"There's no particular reason. In short, Yan Yan is going to marry the Xuan King in a few days."
As Hua Buyu spoke, she led Yun Zhaoyao into her private room in Junjing Pavilion.
"Sister Hua, when is Sister Yan getting married?"
She stretched and, ignoring Yun Zhaoyao, lay down on the bed.
"How would I know? The Xuan King will be proposing in a couple of days, so he should choose the nearest auspicious day!"
Hua Buyu stroked her chin thoughtfully, glancing at the person standing in front of her out of the corner of her eye. "What? Little Zhaoyao, you wouldn't be planning to wait until Yan Yan's wedding before going back, would you?"
He nodded. "Yes, Sister Hua. Sister Yan is very good to me. If there's time, I'd like to have someone go to Qiyun to bring some things over as wedding gifts for Sister Yan in the future."
"No need! Getting married involves betrothal, choosing an auspicious date, preparing a dowry, and so on. Who knows how long it will take before the wedding can take place? Yun Zhaoyao, go do what you need to do. We don't need you here."
