After Transmigration, I Snag a Stunning Bigwig as My Husband

Chapter 1245 - 41: Joyful Debts (Part 17)_3

"That’s great, the Marquis has few offspring, and the Second Young Master has been mischievous since childhood. Plus, with the Ninth Prince and others staying at the mansion, it’s lively every day and never feels deserted.""Once the Second Young Master ran away from his marriage, the Ninth Prince and the others returned to their own mansions, leaving it quite empty here, I’m not used to it."

"That really is something. Just imagine if the Second Young Master is this troublesome, the little ones will follow his lead, and with seven or eight of them, the roof of the Dongxiang Marquis Mansion is sure to be lifted off," joked one of the Flying Tiger Army.

Accompanied by the clucking of an old hen, the laughter of the Flying Tiger Army echoed far and wide.

Neither Su Yang nor Princess Yinchuan knew about these matters. Without the Hidden Guards, and with trust in Zhao Xu, not only were they blocked from the news, but they were also receiving false information.

The Flying Tiger Army marched triumphantly back to Daqi.

Since the wedding date was long decided, they hurried along to not miss the auspicious time.

That particularly prolific hen couldn’t withstand the jostling of the carriage and fell ill.

The accompanying Imperial Physician turned into a veterinarian.

After much haste, they finally made it back to Daqi on the auspicious day.

In front of Dongxiang Marquis Mansion, lights and decorations abounded, making it lively and grand.

Technically, this wedding feast should have been canceled, but Beimo sent the betrothal gifts, and they certainly couldn’t just directly haul them into the mansion.

After all, it was a princess getting married; how could it not have some pizazz?

Unable to think of a perfect solution, they simply let roosters take the place in the wedding ceremony.

As for the return of Su Yang and Princess Yinchuan, they’d just fill in with another ceremony later.

And then—

A wedding feast that left people stunned at first and roaring with laughter later was born.

People had seen weddings where either the bride or groom couldn’t attend, and roosters or hens took their place, but rarely both absent. This was absurd to the extreme.

The Marquis decided to hold another wedding feast once Su Yang and Princess Yinchuan returned to the mansion.

On that day, everyone came empty-handed; there was no reason to hold a second wedding feast and receive gifts twice.

After speaking, they let the roosters and hens carry out the ceremony, and everyone took their seats.

The maids and servants held the roosters and hens for the ceremony without any mishaps.

However, during the ceremony, the rooster crowed, and the hen laid an egg.

Amidst the rooster’s gleeful crowing, an egg landed in a maid’s arms, almost smashing.

The maid looked at the egg in her palm with a face full of wonder, "It laid an egg."

The crowd burst into laughter.

They all said that the chickens were chosen to match the personalities of Su Yang and Princess Yinchuan—one being troublesome, the other prolific.

This quirky wedding feast spread far after it happened at Dongxiang Marquis Mansion.

Zhao Xu and Princess Jing Mountain deceived Su Yang and Princess Yinchuan, claiming the engagement between Beimo and Dongxiang Marquis Mansion had been dissolved, and Su Yang could take Princess Yinchuan back to Daqi.

Indeed.

Return to Daqi for facial treatment.

After her face restored, they’d send her back to Nanlin with a grand sedan chair.

Su Yang felt guilty for sunburning Princess Yinchuan.

Despite having Zhao Xu’s marriage decreed, Su Yang didn’t want to upset his future father-in-law, so he handed over his silver notes to Prime Minister Zhao as the bride price for marrying Princess Yinchuan.

He hoped his future father-in-law would see his sincerity and not be angry over his daughter getting sunburned.

Su Yang was wholehearted, but Prime Minister Zhao found this sincerity too overwhelming and supplemented it with five thousand taels for Princess Yinchuan, considering it her dowry.

Thus—

Su Yang’s money, saved over the years, took a turn and went to his wife.

Su Yang, "..."

In a daze, he saw a trace of his brother-in-law in himself.

Princess Yinchuan gleefully accepted the silver notes.

Because marrying Su Yang was arranged by Princess Jing Mountain, and as an Imperial Sister, she surely wouldn’t set up her Imperial Sister.

Ironically, her biggest trickster was indeed her own Imperial Sister.

Princess Jing Mountain deceived her by saying that the Second Young Master of the Dongxiang Marquis Mansion had found his beloved and was about to hold a wedding feast, that her sunburned face could only be treated by Su Jin, and Zhao Xu entrusted Su Yang to deliver gifts to Daqi, escorting her there.

Given Zhao Xu’s good relationship with Dongxiang Marquis Mansion, it was crucial not to sow discord due to the broken engagement.

After they annulled the marriage, both found suitable matches and were delighted.

Princess Yinchuan didn’t suspect anything; after all, it was her own Imperial Sister.

As for her identity as Princess Beimo, they would confess to General Shi after the congratulatory trip back to Beimo.

Princess Yinchuan nodded at every point, "I’ll follow my Imperial Sister’s lead."

Princess Jing Mountain hadn’t anticipated her younger Imperial Sister to be so gullible, and her conscience felt a bit uneasy.

Thus, she gave Princess Yinchuan an additional twenty thousand taels to use during her travels.

Princess Yinchuan couldn’t refuse, so she accepted.

Returning to Daqi, Su Yang found the journey incredibly vexing.

Princess Yinchuan was particularly stubborn.

When Su Yang said there was no rush to deliver gifts to Daqi, Princess Yinchuan chose to walk.

When urgency was mentioned, Princess Yinchuan opted for horseback riding.
