Reborn to marry the emperor, I just want to confuse the emperor and seize the throne

Chapter 15: Someone is worshipping at the Earth God Temple outside the city

There is a land god temple at Shili Pavilion outside the city. It was here that Xie Shang met Su Tingwan. When their love was deep, they borrowed the land god temple to worship heaven and earth. It was Su Tingwan's request.

She said, "Ah Shang, since we cannot get married in a formal ceremony, let's worship the God of Land. He is worshipped by the world, and it won't be wrong for us to worship him."

Xie Shang was a little hesitant at first, unable to resist Su Tingwan's bold words, and knowing that he had broken his promise to her today, the moment he saw her, the feeling of regaining what he had lost made him feel like he had found a treasure, and he finally agreed to get married with her in the land temple.

The two of them bowed to heaven and earth, and Su Tingwan said again, "Ah Shang, today is the happiest and most comfortable day of my life. Since we have bowed to heaven and earth, we are husband and wife, and I am your wife. I am so happy."

He couldn't give her the position of legal wife, and now he secretly worshipped heaven and earth with her outside. He knew in his heart that it was against etiquette. Wanwan was generous and didn't care about these details, so he agreed to her.

He looked at her with doting eyes, and as long as it did not go against his conscience and morality, he would try his best to meet any request made by Wanwan.

Su Tingwan hugged his waist and leaned in his arms. If this was their new home, what should they do next?

Her cheeks flushed with shame. Xie Shang suddenly remembered what Jiang Huai had told him at the table. He wanted to tell Wanwan that his identity did not allow him to do so. He pushed her away and said in a deep voice, "Wanwan, let's go back quickly! In fact, Jiang Fenghua has already agreed..."

Hearing Jiang Fenghua's name, Su Tingwan's eyes flashed with displeasure, and she raised her eyebrows to interrupt him, "Do you think I am your wife?"

Xie Shang hesitated a little, and Jiang Fenghua's crying face suddenly flashed in his mind, "Wanwan, I can't promise something I can't do, and the emperor's order cannot be disobeyed."

"She is the Princess of Heng, that's right. His Majesty has granted us a marriage, and it cannot be changed. But I only want to be your wife! Haven't we already been married?" She hugged his waist, "It was obviously me who knew you first. The world is so unfair. Why did she marry you first?"

Xie Shang was stunned. He clearly loved Wanwan, but he had to marry Jiang Fenghua. It was unfair to Wanwan. He didn't even have a proper wedding. He felt guilty for not being able to give her the position of legal wife. "Wanwan, I'm sorry..."

"From now on, as long as Ah Shang treats me as your only wife in your heart, that will be enough."

Seeing her putting herself in such a difficult position, Xie Shang hugged her tightly.

She then continued, "I don't want you to apologize. I just want you to love me, to love me enough. From now on, she will only be the Princess of Heng, and I will be your wife, okay? Please don't like her, okay?"

"Okay." Xie Shang nodded. His eyes were deep, like the abyss of a cold pond, unfathomable.

Su Tingwan was very concerned about Jiang Fenghua becoming the Princess of Heng, and even began to have conspiracy theories in her mind, "If she knew we were getting married, she would definitely be unhappy and would stop us. Love is very selfish and cannot be shared..."

"No, she won't be unhappy." Xie Shang answered firmly.

"How do you know she won't?" She pouted and insisted.

If Jiang Fenghua wanted to stop him, she wouldn't have brought the Su family's messenger to see him. Xie Shang had no way to explain, for fear that she would think too much.

At this time, people passing by saw this and came in to congratulate them and wanted to ask for a glass of wedding wine.

But the environment here...it’s hard to describe. Everyone said a lot of blessings and then left.

The news that someone got married at the Shili Pavilion Land Temple outside the city spread quickly and soon reached the city.

"The man is so elegant and handsome, and the woman is so rich and noble in her bright red wedding dress. Why would they be worshipping heaven and earth in the land temple..."

"Only those without parents would worship the God of Land. How could a nobleman dressed so elegantly be without parents? He doesn't dare to bring the girl home to meet his parents. I'm afraid he is marrying her out of wedlock?"

"A concubine cannot worship heaven and earth in the land temple. This is too unfilial. Worshiping the land god instead of worshipping one's own parents is like cursing one's own parents to death. This is really unfilial!"

Speaking of "filial piety", the Great Zhou Kingdom puts filial piety first. Taifu Pan holds the first rank in the government and is a true great scholar. For some reason, this news also reached Taifu Pan who was giving a lecture. When he heard that someone got married in the land temple, he was furious and cursed, saying that if this person was a scholar, he would have read the books of sages in vain.

Tutor Pan decided to record this incident as a model to teach future students what propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame are. Tutor Pan could talk about this incident for a month and would use it as an example in the future.

Having said that, the guard Lin Feng was guarding outside the land temple and quietly hid the sword in his hand, pretending not to know the two people in the land temple. He just felt embarrassed.

But Guard Lin's gossipy heart was ready to act, so he pretended to be a passerby and pricked up his ears to listen to passers-by's comments on his master.

After hearing this, he also complained in his heart: What kind of thing is this! Why would Miss Su drag her master to the land temple to worship heaven and earth? This is so ridiculous. Where does she put the princess in the palace?

She didn't want to offer tea to the mistress yet.

It's totally against etiquette!

It was clearly intentional, but the prince just couldn't see through it.

Ginkgo squatted obediently aside. It was all acting anyway, so she didn't take it to heart. Her heart and eyes were only on Lin Feng.

When Lin Feng saw someone looking at him, he quickly moved away and felt a chill all over his body.

-

Concubine Su personally sent a guard of honor to the Su Mansion. She wanted to let Wanwan enter Prince Heng's Mansion in style today. As long as Xie Shang's heart was on Wanwan, Wanwan would still have a chance to become the mistress of the palace. The prerequisite was that she had to become Xie Shang's woman legitimately first.

Concubine Su dressed up and entered the Su Mansion but did not see Su Tingwan. After asking the guards, she found out that Su Tingwan had already packed her bags and headed out of the city.

In the afternoon, Xie Shang brought Su Tingwan back to the city. She was wearing a bright red wedding dress and her face was rosy. There were three horses in total, so Lin Feng rode one, Su Tingwan and Xie Shang naturally shared one, and Ginkgo rode another.

Su Tingwan's wedding dress was too eye-catching. Passers-by on the street frequently turned their heads to look at her. Some people even said, "In broad daylight, which young man has robbed whose bride?"

"Didn't you see that the bride's smile was sweeter than a flower? This doesn't look like a robbery at all. It's clearly the bride eloping with the man."

Xie Shang had very good hearing. When he heard other people's discussions, his expression turned slightly cold and his body became a little stiff and unnatural. Wanwan hugged his waist too tightly.

In order to catch up with Su Tingwan when he came out, he resolutely chose to ride a horse. The horses of the Jiang family were indeed good horses, and he found her in the land temple outside the city in a moment.

But it would be embarrassing without a carriage.

He winked at Lin Feng and asked him to find a carriage.

Lin Feng rode his horse faster because he wanted to avoid Ginkgo's gaze. Plus, the horse from the Jiang Mansion was indeed a rare good horse, which made him want to gallop. Unfortunately, he couldn't ride the horse after entering the city, otherwise he would have run away long ago. Now he just wanted to stay as far away from Ginkgo as possible to avoid being embarrassed by following beside.

Xie Shang unconsciously quickened his horse, just wanting to avoid the sight of these people as soon as possible.

Su Tingwan told Xie Shang a lot about the minds and feelings of the children of the grassland. She felt that their love was as free as the wind. If she had the chance, she would take Xie Shang to the outside world to take a walk and see it.

Finally arriving at the gate of Prince Heng's mansion, Xie Shang's face turned as green as a piece of vegetable. The more unpleasant the words spoken by the people on the street were, the worse his mood was.

He jumped off the horse and almost lost the reins. Su Tingwan's face was full of happiness. She was not as delicate as Jiang Fenghua who couldn't even get off the horse.

She just lifted her legs and jumped off the horse. She stood steadily, looking heroic and valiant. She didn't care at all why more and more people were watching from the outside. She just wanted the world to know that she was the woman that His Royal Highness Prince Heng liked, and she also wanted Jiang Fenghua to give up.
