Chapitre 38: Does she want to die?
Once the crowd regained their senses, they kneeled on the ground in a uniformed fashion and greeted them respectfully.
"Long live His Majesty, the Emperor, the Empress, Imperial Concubine and His Highness, the Crown Prince!" Everybody kneeled.
His Royal Majesty, the Emperor smiled and raised his hand, "You may rise!"
"Today is a feast! Everybody drink heartily doesn't stand on ceremony!"
"Thanks to the Emperor!"
"I believe everybody knows the intent behind today's banquet." Empress Dauanmu Qing face held a graceful smile, her beautiful face honourable as she spoke, "The Prince's age is suitable for marriage, and now it's time for him to choose his wife, the Crown Princess.
When everybody heard, their eyes all lit up. This was precisely what they've been waiting for.
The many maidens all looked at Hua Xiu Yi bashfully, their faces blushed scarlet as their hearts beat with excitement.
Crown Prince, how many girls dream of this, the dream of becoming the Crown Princess and later becoming the Empress.
Compared to the other minister's joy, General Gu's face seemed to be very gloomy.
"The evening banquet's already started. Why Gu Hua still hasn't come?"
General Gu frowned, both the Emperor and Empress had already arrived, but Gu Hua still dared to be late.
Gu Yiyi's face showed a puzzled expression, "I'm unsure, but I'm afraid that she just doesn't dare to come with the ugly face of hers.
"Nonsense!" General Gu's face was furious, "This was the Emperor's imperial edict, how could she think that she has the right to not come?"
On this day the Crown Prince was choosing the main wife, even though Gu Hus was not one of the most important figures here but still if Emperor came to know about this matter, wouldn't they be finished?
Sure enough, just as General Gu was worrying, the second daughter of prime minister Su Mei asked, "Gu Yiyi, where is Gu Hua? Why didn't I see her today? Doesn't she know an Imperial edict can not be violated? Does she want to die?
Hearing her words, General Gu's face became even more gloomy.
The relationship between Su Mei, Gu Panpan and Gu Yiyi had always been of the best friends. Before with Gu Panpan and Gu Yiyi, she even acted jointly to cause Gu Hua harm.
And now that there was an opportunity to embarrass Gu Hua how could she let the chance go.
Today Su Mei is carefully dressed up in a big peony on jade green smoky gossamer green rosy cloud brocade, the pink water fairy scattered flower with green leaves skirt dragged on the ground. She wore a thin coat of gold-threaded thin jade-green, low hanging hair obliquely inserted with a jasper hairpin inlaid with pearls.
Everyone in the Capital was aware of how much she like Crown Prince, seeing her dressed up her intentions became clear to everyone else.
Sitting beside Su Mei was her eldest sister Su Wanjing. Su Wanjing wore a white peony brocade, floor-length white plum blossom skirt.
Su Wanjing is known as the most beautiful and talented girl in the whole country. For the position of the Crown Princess, she is the most suitable candidate but everyone else knows that her heart belongs to someone else so nobody can force her to become the Crown Princess. Since she is the discipline of Weapon Refining Sect not only she has the support of prime minister but also Weapon Refining Sect.
Su Mei and Gu Panpan were supposed to be the second most suitable candidate for Crown Princess position. But since Gu Panpan was disfigured Su Mei became the most suitable candidate.
