Chapter 355: Just like a fairy consort

There were two carriages parked at the palace’s gate .

Chen Bi Yun was in one of them and the other was prepared for Chen Ning .

Chu Shao Yang was sitting on the jade flower horse with a look of impatience .  His eyes were fixed on the open gate, waiting for the late Chen Ning .

He was wearing a dark purple formal dress with a white jade belt at his waist .  He looked even more handsome and that made him look even taller and straight on the back of his horse .

Chen Bi Yun lifted the curtain and looked at him without blinking with eyes filled with love .

She thought about how soon she would no longer be just a side consort or a concubine, but rather the true prestigious King Ding Yuan princess .  Her heart beated with excitement .

However, her smile suddenly froze on her face .

From the gates of the palace, a red clothed figure walked out, slowly approaching them .

Her large red gown fluttered in the wind like a dancing red butterfly, instantly attracting the attention of everyone .

Chen Bi Yun’s eyes filled with hatred as her long nails dug into her own palm .

Chu Shao Yang’s eyes were staring right at the girl .  Her face was covered in a veil, but the lines of her figure made her look like a fairy consort .  People could not help guessing what kind of beauty she would be under her veil .

“Why you here so late!  This king and Yun’er has waited for a long time!  Get in the cart already!

He spoke to her in the same ill tempered tone as usual .

Chen Ning was already used to this tone of voice .  If it was replaced with the tone he had last night, she wouldn’t have been able to accept it .

She was not angry at all .  She looked over at the cart that Chen Bi Yun was riding in and then boarded the carriage with a smile .

Chen Bi Yun let out a long sigh of relief .  Although she didn’t understand why Chen Ning was wearing a veil and covering her beauty, it suited her intentions .

She was most worried about Chu Shao Yang seeing Chen Ning’s face!

But it was good that after today, his highness will never see that cheap woman again .  From this day forth, she and his highness would live a long life together without anyone disturbing them .

*

Because Chen Ning had been late, when they arrived at the palace, most of the nobles and ministers invited had already arrived .

The carriages were parked outside the Gate of Peace .  Inside the Gate of Peace was the imperial city which no horses or carriages were allowed .

Outside the Gate of Peace, there were many horse carriages parked there .  From the number of horses, one could tell just how many people had come to the banquet .

Chu Shao Yang dismounted and walked over to Chen Bi Yun’s cart, carefully helping her down .  He did not even spare a glance for Chen Ning’s cart .

It was a good thing that Chen Ning did not expect any help .  She jumped off with a flip of a skirt, moving very smoothly .

Chen Bi Yun’s heart was filled with sweetness and pride as she deliberately said, “Your highness, elder sister is your legal princess, so you should walk with elder sister . ”

Chu Shao Yang gave a cold snort and said nothing .

Chen Ning smiled while waving her hand before saying, “No need, no need, you two are a match made in heaven and should walk together .  I as an outsider shouldn’t be here to obstruct your eyes . ”

She took the lead in entering the Gate of Peace, where sedans were waiting for them .  It was prepared by the palace to receive the ministers and the royal family members .

She sat down in a sedan and four eunuchs lifted it up, swaying as they walked forward .

Since it was a spring flower banquet, the feast had been arranged in the royal flower gardens .
