Rebirth of the Princess Pearl

Chapter 64: Ertesiya's Wedding and the Undercurrent of Conspiracy

The palace was decorated with lights and colors, and there was a festive atmosphere. Today was the wedding day of Ertai and Princess Seya, and the entire palace was immersed in a joyous atmosphere.

The morning sun shines on the red walls and yellow tiles, as if covering the palace with a layer of golden gauze. In the imperial garden, the flowers seem to feel the joy and bloom exceptionally beautifully. Peonies are gorgeous, with layers of petals, like clouds in the sky; peonies are no less beautiful, with large flowers and bright colors, swaying gently in the breeze; even the unknown little flowers on the roadside stand up straight and shake their heads happily in the wind. Birds sing happily on the branches, and the chirping sounds seem to be playing a festive movement for the newlyweds.

In Shufangzhai, Xiaoyanzi got up early. She was as excited as a little rabbit, jumping around the room.

Xiaoyanzi danced and said, "Today is the wedding day of Ertai and Seya. We are so happy!" Her eyes were shining with joy and her cheeks were flushed with excitement. After saying that, she took Ziwei's hand and turned around.

Ziwei was a little staggered by Xiaoyanzi's pull, but her face was also filled with a happy smile. "Yes, Xiaoyanzi, today is a happy day." Ziwei's voice was gentle and light, and she adjusted her clothes with graceful movements.

Yongqi came over and said with a smile, "We have to prepare quickly and not miss the auspicious time." Yongqi's steps were brisk and powerful, and his eyes were full of anticipation.

Erkang also nodded and said, "Yes, we are going to help prepare the final matters." Erkang's expression was relaxed and happy. He gently put his hand on Ertai's shoulder and said, "Ertai, you are going to get married today. You must treat Princess Seya well in the future."

Ertai's face was filled with a happy smile, and he nodded vigorously. "Erkang, don't worry. I will take good care of Seya." Ertai's eyes were full of longing for the future. He adjusted his groom's clothes, and the red satin on his clothes sparkled in the sun.

In Princess Seya's residence, the maids were busy dressing her up. Princess Seya sat in front of the bronze mirror, her eyes full of excitement and shyness.

Princess Seya whispered to the maid beside her: "I am going to marry Ertai today. I am so happy." Her fingers gently stroked her gorgeous wedding dress, and the exquisite embroidery on the dress was amazing.

The maid smiled and replied, "The princess looks so beautiful today. Master Ertai is so lucky." The maid combed Princess Seya's hair gently and carefully.

On the other side, Concubine Hua was in her own palace with a gloomy face.

Concubine Hua said to Concubine Li beside her: "Hmph, today the entire palace is celebrating the wedding of Ertai and Seya. It's really upsetting to watch." Concubine Hua's fingers were tightly clenched around the handkerchief in her hand, almost tearing it apart.

Concubine Li said softly, "Your Majesty, today is a happy day, so we should not act rashly." There was a hint of worry in Concubine Li's eyes. She lowered her head slightly, not daring to look directly into Concubine Hua's angry eyes.

Concubine Hua rolled her eyes at Concubine Li and said, "What do you know? How can you miss such a good opportunity?" Concubine Hua stood up and paced back and forth in the room. Her steps were a little hurried, and the accessories on her body made slight clinking sounds as she walked.

As the auspicious time approached, people in the palace gathered towards the wedding hall. The hall was decorated with gold and jade, red silk was hung all around, and big red "happiness" characters were pasted on every corner.

Ertai rode a tall horse, followed by the wedding procession. His face was filled with a happy smile, and his eyes kept looking towards Princess Seya's residence. When he saw Princess Seya walking out supported by the palace maids, his eyes were full of amazement.

Princess Seya, wearing a red veil, walked slowly and gracefully towards Ertai. Ertai quickly dismounted and went forward to greet her.

Ertai whispered, "Saya, you are so beautiful today." His voice was gentle and affectionate, and he gently held Princess Seya's hand.

Princess Seya's hands trembled slightly, and she whispered, "Ertai, I am so happy today."

The wedding procession walked towards the main hall amid laughter and joy.

In the main hall, Emperor Qianlong sat on the dragon throne with a faint smile on his face. The Empress and Concubine Ling sat on both sides. The Empress had a kind expression and joy in her eyes; Concubine Ling still looked gentle, but her eyes seemed to hide some elusive emotions.

Xiaoyanzi, Yongqi, Erkang and others stood aside, with smiles on their faces, waiting for the wedding to begin.

The wedding ceremony began, and the master of ceremonies shouted loudly: "Bow to heaven and earth!"

Ertai and Princess Seya bowed respectfully towards the heaven and earth.

"Two thanks to the high hall!"

The two turned around and bowed to Emperor Qianlong and the Mongolian King. The Mongolian King's face was full of relief, and he looked at his daughter with eyes full of love.

"Couple greetings!"

Ertai and Princess Seya faced each other and slowly bent down. At this moment, their hearts were filled with love for each other and expectations for the future.

Just as everyone was immersed in joy, suddenly, a little eunuch ran in in a panic.

The young eunuch shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, something bad has happened. A group of men in black suddenly came outside and said they wanted to disrupt the wedding." The young eunuch's voice was trembling with fear. His body kept shaking and he knelt on the ground, not daring to look up.

When everyone heard this, the smiles on their faces instantly disappeared. Emperor Qianlong frowned and said majestically: "Who is so bold? How dare you cause trouble in the palace and want to ruin my great joy?" Emperor Qianlong stood up, his dragon robe fluttering in the wind.

Yongqi stepped forward and said, "Father, I am willing to lead the guards to resist the men in black." Yongqi's eyes were firm, he clenched his fists, and his muscles were tense.

Erkang also said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to go with you." Erkang's expression was serious. He drew the sword from his waist, and the sword flashed coldly in the sun.

Xiaoyanzi said anxiously: "Father Emperor, we can't let these bad guys ruin Ertai and Seya's wedding." Xiaoyanzi's eyes were burning with anger, her hands on her hips, looking fearless.

Emperor Qianlong nodded and said, "Okay, go and handle it quickly. I want to make sure the wedding goes smoothly."

Yongqi and Erkang led the guards to rush out of the palace. Xiaoyanzi wanted to follow, but Ziwei quickly held her back.

Ziwei said, "Xiaoyanzi, don't be impulsive. You can't help if you go. We will stay here to protect the emperor and Princess Seya." There was worry in Ziwei's eyes, and she held Xiaoyanzi's arm tightly.

Outside the palace, Yongqi and Erkang led their guards in a fierce battle with the men in black. The men in black were all very agile, but Yongqi and Erkang showed no weakness.

Yongqi waved the sword in his hand and shouted loudly: "Who are you? Why do you want to disrupt the wedding?" Yongqi's swordsmanship was sharp, and every sword was aimed at the vital points of the man in black.

A man in black sneered and said, "We were ordered to disrupt this wedding and make the palace restless." The man in black's voice was low and hoarse, and he moved swiftly to avoid Yongqi's attack.

While fighting, Erkang said, "Who is the mastermind behind you?" Erkang's eyes were sharp and his sword danced in his hand like a snake.

The man in black did not answer, but attacked even more frantically.

On the other side, Concubine Hua heard the noise outside in the palace and a barely perceptible smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Concubine Li said worriedly, "Your Majesty, will we be discovered?" There was a hint of fear in Concubine Li's eyes, and her body was shaking slightly.

Concubine Hua said softly: "What are you afraid of? As long as there is no evidence, who can do anything to us? Let's let them have a good time today." There was a hint of pride in Concubine Hua's eyes. She sat in a chair, drinking tea leisurely.

As the battle continued, Yongqi and Erkang gradually gained the upper hand. They led the guards to force the man in black into a corner.

Yongqi shouted, "You still have time to surrender now, otherwise don't blame us for being rude." Yongqi pointed the tip of his sword at the man in black, his eyes full of majesty.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, the men in black looked at each other, then suddenly rushed in one direction, trying to escape.

How could Yongqi and Erkang let them succeed? They chased after them with their guards.

In the hall, Xiaoyanzi was anxiously waiting for news.

Xiaoyanzi kept walking back and forth, muttering, "Why haven't Yongqi and Erkang come back yet? Nothing has happened to them, right?" Xiaoyanzi kept rubbing the corners of her clothes with her hands, her brows furrowed.

Ziwei comforted her, "Don't worry, Xiaoyanzi. Yongqi and Erkang are both very skilled in martial arts, so they will be fine." Ziwei's voice was gentle, and she held Xiaoyanzi's hand, trying to calm her down.

After a while, Yongqi and Erkang came back with their guards.

Yongqi smiled and said, "Father Emperor, we have repelled those men in black. The wedding can continue." Yongqi had a victorious smile on his face. There were some traces of battle on his body, but his eyes were full of pride.

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this. Emperor Qianlong nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well done, I will reward you handsomely."

So the wedding continued. With everyone's blessings, Ertai and Princess Seya completed the wedding ceremony and became husband and wife.

The palace was filled with laughter and joy again, and people were immersed in a festive atmosphere. However, although Hua Fei's conspiracy did not succeed, she did not give up. In a corner of the palace, a new conspiracy was quietly brewing... (Subsequent content will be continuously updated)
