Double Life: The Sickly Prince Eavesdrops on My Heart

The Imperial Censor also stepped forward and spoke passionately: "Your Majesty, the heir to the throne is the foundation of the country. The actions of the Prince of Jin have indeed aroused the wrath of heaven. He must be severely punished in order to maintain the dignity of the royal family and ensure the stability of our country."

For a while, voices of impeachment rose one after another in the hall.

However, only a few of the Second Prince's followers pleaded for him.

One of them stepped forward and said cautiously, "Your Majesty, although the King of Jin made a mistake, there may be reasons for it. Please be careful and give him a lighter sentence."

Another person also quickly agreed: "Your Majesty, the King of Jin is usually kind and gentle, and this time he must have been deceived. I beg Your Majesty to show some leniency."

Xiao Jingxuan sat on the dragon throne with a gloomy face, listening to the ministers' arguments, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind.

He was well aware that this matter was of great importance and must be handled with caution.

But for a moment, he found it difficult to decide what to do with the Second Prince.

Although the second prince is hateful, he is the emperor's elder brother's son after all. If the punishment is too light, it will disrupt the court order. If the punishment is too heavy, it will lose his imperial demeanor!

After a moment of silence, Xiao Jingxuan slowly spoke: "Prince Jin is not strict with his subordinates and has lost his moral character. He will be severely punished with 20 strokes of the cane! He will be fined one year's salary and confined in the palace for one year!"

"Your Majesty is wise!" all the ministers said in unison.

Adding the one year of punishment Emperor Wen gave him previously, the Prince of Jin will have to be out of the palace for a year and ten months this time. It is estimated that he will never be able to make any progress again!

Inside Chonghua Palace.

Qin Ruhuan leaned lazily on the couch. When she heard that the second prince was punished with confinement, her brows, which had been slightly furrowed, finally relaxed a little.

"Your Majesty, he got it so easy! He was sentenced to only one year in solitary confinement for murdering the prince!" Chunhua was filled with indignation, and her round eyes seemed to be spewing fire.

Qin Ruhuan raised her eyes slightly, looked at Chunhua and said angrily: "Don't be angry, you are getting married soon! How are the preparations going?"

"Your Majesty, there's no need for me to prepare anything! Fei Ye has arranged everything!" Chunhua's cheeks were flushed and her eyes were full of sweetness.

Qin Ruhuan looked at Chunhua's appearance, feeling mixed emotions in her heart. She felt very satisfied to think that Chunhua could actually marry Fei Ye and live such a happy life in this life.

Three days later, Chunhua and Feiye's wedding was held in the former Prince Jin's Mansion.

The mansion was decorated with lights and colors everywhere. The red silk was as warm as a burning flame, and the big red wedding characters were particularly eye-catching under the sunlight.

Most of the officials in the court have come. Everyone knows that General Fei Ye is one of the most trusted people of the emperor. Who wouldn't want to take this opportunity to curry favor with him?

Fei Ye was wearing wedding clothes today, and the fiery red clothes made him look even more handsome.

The white jade belt around his waist makes him look taller. He has a handsome face, elegant temperament, and a slightly upturned mouth with a happy smile.

Chunhua is wearing beautiful makeup today. Her curved eyebrows, bright eyes and delicate red lips all show her beauty.

She was wearing a bright red wedding dress, and her figure was graceful and as beautiful as a blooming peony.

When the ceremony began, Xiao Jingxuan and Qin Ruhuan arrived at the palace together on the dragon chariot.

The two of them sat in the main seat, majestic and solemn.

With a loud shout, the ceremony officially began.

Fei Ye's face was full of joy, and he strode towards Chunhua with big strides. Chunhua looked at Fei Ye walking towards her, and endless sweetness surged in her heart.

Fei Ye's figure was as tall and straight as a pine tree, his face was handsome, his red wedding dress fluttered slightly with his steps, and the white jade waist belt around his waist sparkled with a warm glow in the sun.

The phoenix coronet and bridal bridal robe on Chunhua's head sparkled in the sun, and the pearls and jade swayed, making clear and pleasant sounds.

When Fei Ye walked in front of Chunhua, their eyes met, and in an instant, everything around them seemed to stop.

They only had each other in their eyes, and the strong love filled the air.

With the master of ceremonies singing loudly, they began to worship.

"Worship heaven and earth!"

Fei Ye and Chun Hua slowly turned around, faced the heaven and earth, and bowed down devoutly.

"Two thanks to the high hall!"

They turned around and bowed to Xiao Jingxuan and Qin Ruhuan who were sitting in the main seats.

Xiao Jingxuan smiled with relief in his eyes; Qin Ruhuan looked at them tenderly with tears of emotion in her eyes.

"Couple greetings!"

Fei Ye and Chun Hua stood face to face, their eyes full of affection and determination.

They slowly bent down and bowed to each other.

This bow is their commitment to each other and a vow to stay together for life and never leave each other.

After the ceremony, everyone cheered and applauded.

"Send to the bridal chamber!"

Fei Ye gently took Chunhua's hand, and both of them walked into the new house together with happy smiles on their faces!

We have invited the chefs from Zuiyuelou to prepare today’s banquet, and all the dishes are top quality!

At the banquet, there was fine wine, delicious food and laughter.

Xiao Jingxuan looked at Fei Ye's happy appearance, and his heart was filled with relief. This young man who grew up with him finally got married!

Qin Ruhuan was whispering to Bai Xiaoru, her eyes full of tenderness.

Fei Ye shuttled among the guests with a happy smile on her face.

The wedding with spring flowers and flying leaves ended perfectly like a dream.

That happy scene seems to be still before my eyes, and the air seems to be filled with a sweet scent.

The sky gradually darkened, like a quiet painting slowly unfolding.

Qin Ruhuan looked at the sky dyed by the sunset glow, and suddenly she felt an urge to go out for a walk.

She turned to look at Xiao Jingxuan and suggested, "Your Majesty, it's been a long time since we took such a leisurely stroll together. Since entering the palace, I have been entangled in various affairs. Today, I finally have this opportunity."

Xiao Jingxuan nodded slightly, his eyes full of tenderness. They changed into their regular clothes, sent the guards away, and only left some secret guards to follow quietly behind them to ensure safety.

The streets in the evening are not as crowded as during the day.

Many shops have already turned on their lights early, emitting a warm and comfortable light.

Qin Ruhuan and Xiao Jingxuan walked side by side, feeling this rare tranquility.

"Your Majesty, it has been a long time since we have walked together like this. In the future, there may be even less chance to do so."

Qin Ruhuan's voice was filled with emotion. She looked into the distance, her eyes revealing her nostalgia for the free days in the past.

"Your Majesty! We haven't walked together like this for a long time! There may not be another chance in the future!" Qin Ruhuan suddenly felt something!

"Huan'er, when Xiao Yi comes back, let's go traveling together and explore the world, okay?" Xiao Jingxuan said seriously.

Qin Ruhuan's eyes lit up instantly and she jumped up with joy, as if she had returned to her carefree girlhood.

But soon, she remembered her identity and stopped immediately, with a trace of helplessness on her face.

Hey, what queen? I really don’t want her at all. I have no freedom at all! Qin Ruhuan complained in her heart.
