While the entire city was discussing Baili Xi’s rebellion, Xia Liang was requested by her mother to prepare her own dowry.

Normally, brides should embroider their own wedding dress before the big day. Since Xia Liang was about to marry the emperor and in a short time, she didn’t have to prepare the wedding dress on her own. But her mother asked her to embroider a pair of pillow cases with her own hands.

Her mother kept an eye on her every day how she did with the pillow cases. Fortunately, the original Xia Liang knew how to embroider. But for the first time, Xia Liang had a feeling that she was about to explode.

If she had known that it could be this troublesome to get married, she would not have agreed to marry Baili Jue.

Why did she have to poke into a piece of cloth with a needle and also pay attention to match those colorful threads? She was driven crazy.

Baili Jue was surprised to hear Xia Liang’s complain while he sneaked out to see her privately at night.

To his knowledge, Xia Liang had no emotion such as complain. She could do anything simply with no emotion.

When he heard her complain, he was both surprised and happy. He would be excited no matter she was happy, complaining, or angry, or any emotional changes.

Baili Jue thought he was sick or even crazy.

Why did he care so much about Xia Liang’s feelings? Was it because he loved her so much?

Finally Bali Jue gave up figuring out why. Because he still got decades to spend with Xia Liang in the future. He wouldn’t miss any of her emotions.

He would teach her everything she didn’t know or feel. She would feel more and know better with his guidance.

….

As the royal wedding got closer, Chen Jingsheng had already investigated everything about Baili Xi’s rebellion. He was also shocked by how wealthy Baili Xi was when he cleaned the prince’s treasure room and private assets.

Baili Xi made a fortune in recent year, thanks to Zhu Ruodie’s advice. He spent a huge amount of money on recruiting, training and feeding soldiers, otherwise he should have more left.

Baili Jue was shocked when he saw the report too. Great for you, Baili Xi! You are richer than me. Liang is right. The restaurants and jewelry shops are money makers.

Baili Jue gave all the money, shops and properties in the name of Baili Xi to Xia Liang as her dowry.

Moreover, he sent 128 pairs of boxes of wealth to Xia family as his betrothal presents. Therefore, Mrs. Xia was not worried about her daughters’ dowry at all.

She was happy to see how much the emperor cared about her daughter especially after he ungrounded her husband. She was not so worried that her daughter might have a miserable life in the palace since the emperor would protect her daughter.

 After Baili Xi’s rebellion, the empress dowager was heartbroken. Besides, she was intimidated by the emperor’s toughness, she stopped sending more women to the emperor.

Once Baili Xi was convicted of treason, Baili Jue spared his life for the sake of empress dowager and put him in royal prison. However, a few days later, it was said that Baili Xi committed into suicide.

Whether he really killed himself or not was just a rumor. As a rebellious prince, no matter he was alive or death, it didn’t matter that much.

Once Chen Jingsheng finished his job to deal with Baili Xi, he pledged to return to the southeast to safeguard the boarder.

“Uncle, my wedding day is around the corner. You are my family. You should attend my wedding. There won’t be problems with Dongfeng Kingdom lately. Don’t worry about it. Besides, the border is remote and unfriendly to live. You should spend more casual and happy time here.”

“Yes, your majesty.” Chen Jingsheng had to obey although he was not willing to deep inside.

Looking at Chen Jingsheng who walked away, Baili Jue knew it was about time to make arrangement in the southeast. Very soon, uncle, you won’t be needed there. You’d better stay here.

Time passed quickly. In a twinkling of an eye, a month and a half of time passed. It was on the emperor's wedding day.

The royal wedding, of course, was a universal celebration, but also is a very complicated and troublesome thing. The entire wedding procedures were extremely exhausting.

Even though Xia Liang was a physically and mentally strong woman, she took a deep breath after she finally got to sit down on her wedding bed.

Finally, it was over! So exhausting!

Baili Jue felt so familiar when he saw Xia Liang sitting on the wedding bed, wearing her red wedding gown, covered by red veil.

He had a feeling that she used to marry him, on a red bed, by a red candle, covered by a red veil, but…

Baili Jue marched forward hastily and lifted the veil covering Xia Liang’s head rudely.

Xia Liang looked at and smiled at him. Baili Jue was relieved for no reason.

It was her! It was really her! She was really married to him!

“Tired?” Baili Jue asked as he sat down beside her, looking at her blushing face, and touched her face.

“A little. The tiara is too heavy.” Xia Liang said and tried to take it off. But the tiara was tangled with her hair. She failed no matter how hard she tried.

“Don’t move. Silly girl. Let me.” Baili Jue said, feeling sorry for the pain she had gone through.

“It is such a trouble! And it’s heavy! I shouldn’t have you wear it at all!” finally it took him a lot of work to take it off. Baili Jue tossed it aside,

Only when he knew how heavy it was, he felt so sorry because Xia Liang had worn it for entire day.

“If I had known it, I shouldn’t have married you. It’s troublesome.” Xia Liang said seriously, rubbing her sore neck.
