Chapter 580 - 580: Marriage



Under his gaze, Gu Qingluan could feel herself blushing, but she was thankful that the red veil concealed her embarrassment, shielding it from the prying eyes of the onlookers. “Please, Uncle Han, refrain from teasing me in front of everyone.”

“Hmm, is the little girl getting shy?” Han smiled, mercilessly indifferent to everyone else except when it came to Gu Qingluan. “Alright, alright, even though you didn’t kneel down, I can see your sincerity. He indeed has feelings for you, so I won’t be the villain. You should hurry up and get married.”

Just a moment ago, he appeared like he didn’t want Gu Qingluan to get married, but now he was urging her to do so.

Once again, the onlookers were stunned by his change of stance.

Feng Tianlan, on the other hand, quickly realized what was happening and smirked as he walked toward Gu Qingluan.

Traditionally, it was the bride’s brother who carried her to the sedan chair, but since Gu Qingluan had no brother, he couldn’t bear to let her go up the chair alone.

“Wait!”

Suddenly, an urgent cry sounded.

Who was it this time?

The crowd parted to make way, and Qi Tianyou hurriedly arrived.

Seeing that the bride was still at the door, he breathed a sigh of relief and then took a few big strides to Gu Qingluan’s side, casually adjusting her golden crown.

“Your Highness, what is this…”

“You are the Guardian Princess, and 1 am the Crown Prince. You are my imperial sister, and when my imperial sister gets married, it should be done by me, her imperial brother.”

Earlier, Qi Tianyou and Feng Tianlan had discussed giving Gu Qingluan a surprise, but due to the epidemic, he had been busy with state affairs and couldn’t make it. However, he promised Feng Tianlan that he would return as soon as possible.

Fortunately, he made it back in time.

The onlookers were once again amazed by his words.

The Crown Prince was actually here to carry the bride, such a grand display for the Guardian Princess!

Gu Qingluan was momentarily stunned.

The matchmaker urged from the side, “The auspicious time has come; it’s time to get on the sedan chair.”

Qi Tianyou turned his back to Gu Qingluan, slightly bent his knees, and half-bowed, saying, “Imperial sister, please come up.”

Gu Qingluan snapped back to reality, feeling a warm sensation in her heart that was hard to put into words.

She had killed Duke Dingbei, and the Dingbei Army rebelled under the pretext of avenging him. While she had protected Tianjing, it was mainly for herself.

When the Emperor had conferred upon her the title of Guardian Princess, she hadn’t taken it to heart.

But now, the Crown Prince had repeatedly helped her. How could she not be moved?

She glanced at Feng Tianlan.

Feng Tianlan was still smirking, his mouth curved up, his eyes never leaving her.

Under his gaze, urged by the crowd’s impatience and anticipation, Gu Qingluan climbed onto the Crown Prince’s back.

Qi Tianyou lifted her onto his back and carried her to the sedan chair.

“Raise the sedan chair!”

With a shout, the sedan chair was lifted, and the sound of gongs, drums, andfirecrackers filled the air.

The wedding procession began its journey back.

Gu Qingluan sat inside the sedan chair, feeling as if her heart was dipped in honey, oozing a sweet sensation.

Onlookers followed along with the wedding procession, and soon, the open space in front of the Jun Residence became quiet.

Han smiled as he watched the departing sedan chair, unable to help but sigh.

Gu Xiaonan and Feng Yuanxi ran out from the door, “Grandpa Han, why are you sighing? Don’t you want our mother to marry our father?”

“You wouldn’t understand,” Han smiled and glanced at the young boy.

Children couldn’t fathom the hearts of their elders.

Gu Xiaonan blinked his eyes and said in a childish voice, “If you tell me, 1’11 understand.”

“I won’t tell you. You’ll understand when you grow up.”

Han gently flicked the boy’s nose, “Now that everyone’s gone, let’s join in the festivities and deliver those old fellows’ congratulatory gifts.”

The sedan chair traveled around Tianjing City for quite a while and stopped in front of a massive mansion.

The plaque on the mansion’s gate bore the characters “Feng Residence.”

It was only then that everyone realized this place belonged to His Royal Highness Prince Lan.

The Feng Residence was located not far from the Jun Residence, separated by two streets. The entire residence was adorned with red silk and double happiness symbols, creating an atmosphere of celebration.

The sedan chair was ushered inside the main gate. Those without wedding invitations could only crane their necks to catch a glimpse from outside.

The sedan chair stopped, and the couple alighted. Guided by the matchmaker, they made their way to the bridal chamber.

Laughter and chatter filled the air, creating a lively and joyful atmosphere.

They paid respects to the heavens and earth and then to their parents.

“Now, bow to each other as a married couple!”

Upon hearing the command, Gu Qingluan turned around to face the groom.

She felt a slight tremor in the red silk she was holding, and as she lowered her eyes to look at the opposite end, she saw another hand holding onto the silk. The fingers were distinct, long, and fair.

In the moment they both lowered their heads, that hand quietly grasped hers. “What are you doing?”
