Chapter 451 Wedding Ceremony

Chapter 451: The Wedding Ceremony

But this sweet, romantic moment was interrupted by a skeptical voice.

"Impossible, this is impossible. How are you touching her without puking?"

"It's fake, it has to be fake. The person under that veil isn't Luo Qingge. She's a guy in disguise."

Luo Qianxue's eyes went wide, staring in disbelief, and she let out a shriek.

Everyone knew that Xie Liuzheng was allergic to women and would throw up if he so much as touched one.

She still remembered the time he puked all over her—the memory was vivid and gross.

But now he could hold Luo Qingge's hand and even hug her without so much as a flinch. How was that even possible?

Ji Yuntang had watched enough and stepped forward with a cold smirk. "What's so impossible about it? The world's full of surprises. It just proves you were never the right one for my brother."

"You kept bothering him, so isn't it normal he puked on you?"

Luo Qianxue glared furiously at Ji Yuntang and lunged at her like a crazy person.

"Ji Yuntang, is it you? Did you pull some trick?"

"You didn't want me to marry Heir Xie, so you drugged him so he couldn't touch me, you bitch!"

Luo Qianxue went to slap Ji Yuntang, but Ji Yuntang grabbed her wrist, narrowed her eyes, and said coldly.

"Luo Qianxue, brains are a great thing, but you clearly don't have any."

"Today's your wedding day, so I don't want to lay a hand on you, but watch your mouth, or I won't mind shoving some crap in it on your big day."

Luo Qianxue: "..."

Luo Qianxue: "!!!"

She was about to curse when Ji Yuntang shoved her hard, sending her stumbling right into Xue Cheng's arms.

"Young Master Xue, keep your wife in line, or else I won't hesitate to put you both in your place as your elder sister-in-law!"

After speaking, Ji Yuntang turned to look at Xie Liuzheng, calm again, a gorgeous smile curling at the corners of her mouth.

"Brother, the auspicious time for the ceremony is almost here. You should hurry and take Qingge back to the mansion so you don't miss the lucky moment."

Xie Liuzheng nodded and glanced at Luo Qingge once more. "Alright, let's return to the mansion and hold the ceremony."

He carefully shielded Luo Qingge's head as he helped her into the bridal sedan.

Then he swung himself up onto the white horse.

"Heir Xie and Princess Jiu, the sedan is heading back to the mansion!"

The wedding attendant called out, and behind them, drums and gongs boomed, suona horns blared, and the music kicked back up.

The eight-man sedan slowly lifted off the ground. Red carpets lined the streets, kids on both sides tossed flower petals, all the way to the gates of Duke Rong's mansion.

Cheers, congratulations, and firecrackers rang out, loud and lively as hell.

Once Luo Qingge and Xie Liuzheng were gone, Luo Qianxue didn't want to stick around and embarrass herself either. She grabbed the veil her maid had picked up and climbed into her own sedan.

Her setup was the same as Luo Qingge's—eight-man sedan, drums and gongs—but the experience was totally different.

The Xue mansion was in the opposite direction from Duke Rong's, so her sedan went the other way.

Along her route, there were no red carpets, no flower kids tossing petals—just a bunch of curious onlookers.

So she figured Xie Liuzheng had paid for all those red carpets and petals himself.

Luo Qianxue clenched her wedding dress in frustration, getting even angrier, and started to resent Xue Cheng a little.

Hiring some flower kids and laying down a red carpet—if other people could do it, why couldn't he?

Compared like that, she was once again outshone by Luo Qingge's grand display.

But what Luo Qianxue didn't know was that Luo Qingge's display blew hers out of the water in way more ways!

She was just having a standard, run-of-the-mill wedding, but Luo Qingge and Xie Liuzheng were doing something totally different—a fusion of Eastern and Western styles.

When they got to Duke Rong's mansion, everyone was blown away by the decorations inside!

The venue was in the front courtyard, with a round stage set up in the middle. Right in the center was a portrait of Xie Liuzheng and Luo Qingge leaning on each other. The stage stretched out, with a long red carpet running down the middle, lined with pale blue flowers on both sides—romantic and warm.

Everyone couldn't help but marvel—they'd never seen a wedding set up like this before.

Soon, Luo Qingge came out in a white wedding gown covered in diamond-like sparkles that glittered in the sun, making her look pure and stunning like an angel.

She had a diamond necklace around her neck and a silver crown on her head, the white veil making her already gorgeous face look even more striking and refined—like she'd stepped right out of a painting.

The second she appeared, a bunch of noble young ladies screamed in admiration.

"What is Princess Jiu wearing? She's so pretty! Is she a goddess who came down to earth?"

"This dress is gorgeous! I've never seen fabric like this before. I've really learned something today!"

"If I could dress like this at my wedding, that'd be amazing!"

"..."

The crowd stared at Luo Qingge with envy, while she looked toward the end of the stage.

She wondered what Xie Liuzheng would wear—she was kinda excited.

The moment Xie Liuzheng appeared, he stood out like a crane among chickens.

He walked out cool and composed in a crisp white suit with a matching tie.

He had deep brows, a high nose bridge, and a carefree look with a touch of class. The wind ruffled the ends of his hair, adding a wild, free-spirited charm, and the suit made him look even taller and leaner.

Xie Liuzheng held a bouquet, his gaze soft as he looked at Luo Qingge and walked slowly toward her.

Then came the speeches, the ring exchange—everything went off without a hitch.

Ji Yuntang enjoyed just watching from the sidelines.

She thought to herself that if these two had been born in the 24th century, they'd definitely be top-tier celebrities.

Just then, Meng Fan came over to remind her, "Princess Ye, next up is the part where the Heir and Princess Jiu do the traditional bowing ceremony!"

She turned and asked Meng Fan, "Have the Emperor and Empress arrived?"

Meng Fan replied, "The Emperor was attacked last night and said he was shaken up, so he's still resting in the palace. The Empress, however, has come!"

Ji Yuntang then asked, "What about the Crown Prince?"

Meng Fan said, "The Crown Prince didn't come, but he sent a wedding gift. However, I did hear a little rumor."

"Some say they saw the Crown Prince's carriage heading toward the Xue residence!"

Ji Yuntang frowned, unable to figure out what Luo Jingshen was up to.

His own sister was the one getting married, and not only did he not show up, but he went over to Luo Qianxue's place instead?

Ji Yuntang said, "Never mind that. Go move four benches up there first. Since the Emperor didn't come, just leave them empty. It's fine as long as the Empress showed up."
