“Where is Your Imperial Highness going?” Bai Shuang asked hurriedly.
“Sky Alpha City.”
Bai Shuang did not ask her why she was going to Sky Alpha City at this juncture. She was only worried. “How long will Your Imperial Highness be gone for?”
“I can’t say for sure.”
“Let me accompany Your Imperial Highness. I am worried about every servant serving Your Imperial Highness.”
Su Ying shook her head. “Zhou Qing alone is fine. You can just go and get married in peace.”
“Your Imperial Highness…”
Su Ying waved her hand and interrupted her. “If you don’t reject this proposal, I’ll take it that you’ve agreed. I’ll ask Si Chen about it for you.”
Bai Shuang looked at Su Ying with reluctance. She knew that if she really got married, she would definitely not be able to stay by Su Ying’s side like she used to, just like Lin Zhuyu now.
Zhou Qing saw that Bai Shuang still wanted to say something, so she went forward to help her up from the ground. “Get up. You have been serving by Her Imperial Highness’s side all this while, so you should know that Her Imperial Highness’s decision will not be easily changed.”
Bai Shuang’s eyes became more red-rimmed. It was precisely because she knew that she felt even more unbearable.
After Zhou Qing left with Bai Shuang, Zhang Shuming arrived. It turned out that when Bai Shuang entered the palace, Si Chen was also brought to the Imperial study.
Since he was an official from outside the capital city, it was not appropriate for him to enter the Imperial harem’s quarters. Thus, Su Ying had tasked Xiao Jin to ask him about it.
“Your Imperial Highness, Lord Si said that he is willing to formally and solemnly marry Miss Bai Shuang and that he will never let her down in this lifetime.”
“Then I will give him three days to prepare everything. Three days later, I will personally marry Bai Shuang off.”
Although it was very rushed, with the help of the people in the palace, it should not be difficult to prepare those wedding stuff.
Su Ying then took out a deed to a house and handed it to Zhang Shuming “This is the dowry I’m providing for Bai Shuang. Let them stay in that courtyard house for the time being.”
As for Si Chen’s career in the future and whether the couple would leave the capital city, she would no longer interfere.
“Your Imperial Highness, please rest assured. Your old servant will definitely get the matter settled as soon as possible.” Zhang Shuming knew that Su Ying was leaving the capital city soon, so he didn’t dare drag his feet.
When Aunt Zhao heard that Bai Shuang was about to get married, she put down the tasks at hand and went to the Conjugal Phoenix Palace.
“Aunt Zhao, why didn’t you tell me that Her Imperial Highness wanted me to take care of Si Chen?” When Bai Shuang saw Aunt Zhao, her expression became reproachful. If she had known that Her Imperial Highness wasn’t really serious about not wanting her anymore, she would have shamelessly begged for mercy no matter what. y
Aunt Zhao reached out and tapped Bai Shuang’s forehead in exasperation. “You fool. If Her Imperial Highness was really angry with you, do you think your head can still rest securely on your neck?” Those people all said that the Empress was ruthless and cold-blooded, but all those who followed the Empress knew that as long as they did not make any mistakes in matters of principle, the Empress would not pick on them.
“It’s also time for you to get married. I’ve never met Lord Si before, but since Her Imperial Highness has agreed to let you marry him, I think he’s not a bad person.”
“Aunt Zhao, I don’t want… don’t want to leave you guys…” Bai Shuang hugged Aunt Zhao and buried her face in her arms. She liked Si Chen, but when she thought about how she had to leave the people she had been close to since she was young, she was very reluctant.
Aunt Zhao’s eyes also became red-rimmed. How could she bear to let the girl go? However, Bai Shuang was born a maidservant. If not for the fact that the Empress was currently in charge of the Imperial harem’s palace complex, how could Bai Shuang get married to an official of the Imperial Court? This was Bai Shuang’s good fortune. Although the girl was reluctant, she also knew that this was a great blessing for her.
“First, it was Lin Zhuyu. Now, it’s you. If all of you can lead good lives, Her Imperial Highness can rest assured. Don’t be stubborn. Be obedient and prepare to get married.”
Although the wedding was rushed, with the help of the people in the palace the preparations were very thorough. The seamstresses in the palace worked in shifts to rush for three days and finally completed the wedding dress.
The night before the wedding, Bai Shuang knelt in front of Su Ying, saying that she wanted to serve her for the final night no matter what. If Su Ying did not agree, she would kneel forever.
Su Ying looked at her stubborn expression and immediately instructed someone to carry her out. “Stop nagging. Otherwise, I’ll throw you out of the palace tonight.”
“Your imperial Highness…” Bai Shuang looked at the tightly shut hall doors and began weeping in sorrow.
After a while, the hall doors swung open and Zhou Qing walked out. She pulled Bai Shuang up from the ground. “You’re going to be the bride tomorrow. It is not acceptable if the bride does not look beautiful. If you don’t sleep the whole night, how can you be beautiful? Quickly go and rest. Her Imperial Highness understands your good intentions.”
Bai Shuang knelt outside the doors once again and kowtowed three times in the direction of the inner hall. “Even if I get married, I will forever be Your Imperial Highness’s maidservant. I am willing to do anything for Your Imperial Highness to repay your kindness.”
In the inner hall, Su Ying gave a soft huff as she lay down beside Xiao Jin.
Xiao Jin hugged her from behind. “You can’t even bear to part with a maidservant. Yet how come you can abandon me and the two kids?”
Su Ying felt that Xiao Jin had become a resentful husband these few days.
She simply pretended to be asleep. Since she could not win the argument, she would choose to ignore it!
Xiao Jin withdrew his arm that was hugging her.
Su Ying furrowed her brows and turned around to hug him, burying her face in is embrace. “So what if I can’t bear to leave you guys? If I really bring you along, wouldn’t I have fallen off the dam for nothing? You should at least cherish the fruits of my labor. Since we have chosen to stay here, then we should not regret it.”
“When are you leaving?”
“Tomorrow.”
Xiao Jin suddenly lifted her chin and kissed her.
Their breaths intertwined, and they were reluctant to part with each other.
Just as Su Ying thought he would make his next move, he let go of her again.
Su Ying was so aroused by his teasing that she found it almost unbearable so she pinched his waist in annoyance. “You’ve lit a fire, so why aren’t you taking responsibility to extinguish it?”
Xiao Jin kissed the corner of her lips, his voice betraying his own self-restraint
I should let you yearn for it. Otherwise, you can even forget me.”
Su Ying narrowed her eyes and gave him a brusque kiss. “Protect the children and protect yourself well.”
“Alright.”
The next day, Su Ying woke up after Xiao Jin went to attend the morning court session.
Today was Bai Shuang’s wedding day, so she had to wake up early.
Si Chen’s biological parents died when he was young. He was raised by his paternal uncle from a young age. His uncle also passed away two years ago Now, only some distant relatives were left in Kun City. It did not affect him too much if those distant relatives could not attend the wedding.
So today’s wedding ceremony was a simple affair. Su Ying also gave Aunt Zhao and the rest a day off to attend Bai Shuang’s wedding banquet.
When Su Ying arrived at Bai Shuang’s room, Aunt Zhao was dressing her up.
Lin Zhuyu had also rushed over early in the morning to help her put on makeup and have a private chat with her.
Everyone stood up when they saw Su Ying enter the room.
“Greetings, Your Imperial Highness.”
“Alright, you may all rise. Is everything almost ready?”
Aunt Zhao smiled as she drew Bai Shuang’s eyebrows. “Your Imperial Highness, everything that needs to be prepared has been prepared. All that’s left is for the’ groom to pick up the bride.”
When Bai Shuang met Su Ying’s eyes, tears welled up again.
“Your Imperial Highness…”
“Enough. Don’t be so sentimental. It’s not like we can’t see each other again Look at Lin Zhuyu. Isn’t she fine? If you’re all in the capital city when I return later, we can still go out and chit-chat when free. There’s nothing bad at all.” “That’s right. If you miss Her Imperial Highness, then beg her to let you enter the palace. What are you afraid of?” Lin Zhuyu naturally knew that things would be different after getting married, but she still smiled and placated Bai Shuang. She had experienced this kind of feeling before, and she hoped that Bai Shuang would take things easy.
“Mm-hmm. I… I will definitely get married happily..”
