Dongfang Shuo no longer cared about the prince. He turned around, picked up his princess and said anxiously, "Doctor, please call the doctor!"

The second sister-in-law of the Xie family, who was in charge of the overall situation, also stepped forward immediately and asked Dongfang Shuo to take Runxue to the guest room to rest: "I will ask the palace doctor to go over and treat Princess Cheng right away."

After the chaos, King Cheng and his wife went downstairs.

The earring incident was messed up like this, and no one mentioned it again. Dongfang Ye was very grateful for the chaos that allowed everyone to temporarily forget about him.

Order was restored in the wedding hall. Xie Lin let go of Chu Heyi's hand, and the two stood facing each other again.

The ceremonial officer shouted: "Husband and wife bow to each other!"

The two people, dressed in wedding clothes, faced each other and bowed to each other.

Thunderous applause suddenly rang out from the surroundings. Xie Lin and Chu Heyi both breathed a sigh of relief. The ceremonial officer said, "The ceremony is over. Send her to the bridal chamber."

The applause became even louder, blessing their successful wedding.

Chu Heyi was supported by the bridesmaid and walked step by step into the bridal chamber which was covered with wedding characters. Everywhere she looked was filled with joy.

Although many things happened today, Chu Heyi didn't take them to heart. He just thought: "Today is the wedding day for Xie Lin and I. I didn't have such an opportunity in my previous life. I finally got it from the hands of fate in this life. I don't want anything else to affect my mood for the wedding!"

She just wanted to be happy! She just wanted to ignore all the obstacles that others deliberately set up! She just didn't allow any obstacles to affect her good mood for the wedding!

After entering the bridal chamber and sitting down, Chu Heyi said, "Mammy, pour me a cup of tea. I'm thirsty."

Aunt Rui happily poured her some tea and brought it to her. She couldn't help but remind her, "Young lady, be patient and wait for Master Xie to take off your red veil. You can't take it off by yourself."

Chu Heyi took a sip of tea. The wedding was indeed tedious and tiring, but fortunately everything went smoothly.

"Don't worry, Ma'am. I know the seriousness of the matter. I will not take off my red veil before Mr. Xie...Mr. Xie comes in."

Normally, it’s fine to call him Xie Lin, Lord Xie, or Prime Minister Xie, but now, I don’t know why I feel shy and unable to speak when I call him that.

Thinking of something else, Chu Heyi said again: "Baihua, go outside and find out why Princess Cheng fainted just now."

Baihua immediately responded and left.

The sun had begun to set and dusk had arrived. The Xie Mansion was bustling with activity inside and outside, except in the guest room where Cheng Wang and his wife were accommodated, where the atmosphere was tense and serious.

The court physician, Doctor Lu, was checking Runxue's pulse. The second sister-in-law of the Xie family was waiting beside her with a group of maids and servants. When she saw Doctor Lu finish checking Runxue's pulse, she immediately asked, "How is it, Doctor Lu? Is Princess Cheng in any serious condition?"

Not long after Runxue was brought here, she woke up quietly. Now she was leaning in Dongfang Shuo's arms, looking at Doctor Lu nervously.

"Congratulations to His Royal Highness Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng!" Doctor Lu bowed and said, "Princess Cheng, this is a positive pulse. It's only because Princess Cheng's Qi and blood are deficient that she suddenly fainted. If you pay a little attention in the future, you will be fine."

It turned out to be a happy pulse!

The second sister-in-law of the Xie family breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes full of smiles: "I would like to congratulate His Royal Highness the King and the Queen on becoming King."

Dongfang Shuo and Runxue looked at each other, with smiles in their eyes and brows. The next moment, Dongfang Shuo ignored the people around and directly picked up Runxue horizontally.

"Thank you, Madam. The princess and I were originally here to have a wedding banquet, but now my princess needs to rest. Please forgive me for taking the princess back first. We can't have this wedding banquet."

"Your Highness, you are too polite. Princess Cheng's pregnancy is a great joy. Her health is of great importance. It is our Xie Mansion that has not entertained us well. I hope Your Highness and Princess Cheng will not blame us. I respectfully send off Your Highness and Princess Cheng."

Just like that, before the wedding wine was even drunk, Dongfang Shuo took his princess away.

Soon, the news that Princess Cheng was diagnosed with pregnancy in Xie Mansion spread throughout the mansion, and almost everyone present today knew about it.

Everyone also knew that Prince Cheng and his wife had left Xie's house before the banquet even started.

"Pregnant?" When Chu Heyi heard the news, she couldn't help but whispered softly. Runxue was found to be pregnant on the day of her and Xie Lin's wedding.

Dongfang Shuo might not have noticed that Runxue was pregnant, but Runxue was a very cautious and meticulous person and it was impossible for her to realize that she was pregnant only after she fainted.

The couple did it on purpose. They let the Xie family's doctor find out that Runxue was pregnant today, and then they left early without attending the banquet.

Why is this?

Chu Heyi began to think about the reasons behind this. What was the purpose of Dongfang Shuo and his wife doing this?

She thought again of the lantern that had fallen to the ground last night.

After sitting silently beside the bed for a long time, Chu Heyi suddenly called Baihua to his side and said to her in a low voice: "Baihua, please return to Zhenbei Marquis Mansion as soon as possible and deliver a letter to my fourth brother and Shu Xiao."

Baihua nodded: "Please give your orders, young lady."

Chu Heyi whispered something in her ear. Baihua's eyes widened slightly, as if she was shocked by Chu Heyi's words. Finally, she nodded seriously.

After Baihua left, Chu Heyi continued to sit on the edge of the bed, with the red veil still on, and the festive red color was still visible.

After all, it was a wedding day, and she was still looking forward to it. She thought she was overthinking it, and that such a thing should not happen.

Outside, the sky had become completely dark. Dongfang Ye breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he could finally leave.

Xie Lin, dressed in a bright red wedding gown, suddenly walked up to him and said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince."

Dongfang Ye narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but say sarcastically: "Prime Minister Xie, what do you want?"

"I dare not." Facing his sarcasm, Xie Lin's attitude could be described as gentle, and he had no intention of arguing with him at all. He just said, "It's getting dark. I'll send someone to take His Highness back to the East Palace."

Dongfang Ye seemed to have heard a huge joke: "This is Shengjing City, under the feet of the emperor. Prime Minister Xie, do you know what you are talking about?"

Xie Lin said: "Sending someone to escort His Highness back to the palace is a way for me to express my loyalty."

Dongfang Ye flatly refused: "Thank you Prime Minister for your concern!"

He sneered again, "Or is it that Prime Minister Xie is worried that something bad will happen to me in your house and you will have trouble reporting to my father? Prime Minister Xie, rest assured, even if I have to die, I will die after you."

He took a few steps and suddenly stopped, looking back at Xie Lin with a sharp gaze: "If Prime Minister Xie dares to send someone to follow me, he will go to war with me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he strode away with Huai Qi, Huai Wei and others.

Xie Lin looked at his back, speechless for a moment, he just felt the endless darkness pressing down on him, making it hard to breathe.

After much deliberation, he still sent four secret guards to follow Dongfang Ye from a distance and send him back to the palace.

After giving the instructions, he turned and went to the bridal chamber to unveil his bride's red veil.

As for Dongfang Ye, he left Xie Mansion and was about to get on the East Palace's carriage when he was stopped by someone. This person was a prominent nanny in Xie Mansion.
