away from the heart

Chapter 188 The Big Day 1
The auspicious time is approaching, and there are lights and festoons everywhere in the palace, full of joy.It's been a long time since there was such a big happy event. Everyone was smiling and chattering: "I heard that Princess Naxi is very beautiful, and she is the number one beauty in Xizhao."

"Exactly, General Xue is truly blessed! It's just... I see General Xue, why doesn't he look very happy?"

Xue Yao stood straight under the stage without saying a word, the indifference in his eyes made people almost forget that he was wearing a bright red wedding dress at the moment.There was a lot of excitement all around, but it had nothing to do with him.He is just a pawn in this farce, and he only hopes that this big drama will end as soon as possible, and he will have a moment of peace.

The sound of joy began to play, it was time for the master of ceremonies to speak to welcome the newcomers.

"The auspicious time has come—the welcome person—"

Everyone stretched their necks, looking at the sedan chair coming from the other end.Only Xue Yao, as if struck by lightning, turned his head suddenly, in disbelief: Why is it Chuyue, why did she become today's escort lady? !
The sedan chair landed slowly, seeing Xue Yao still standing there, Duo Ertu stepped forward: "General! The newcomer has arrived."

Xue Yao glared and wanted to tear off the red silk on her body: "Why is it Chuyue? You promise me that you will not hurt her again, don't go too far."

Dortu shrugged, "Tsk tsk tsk - this is Princess Chuyue who volunteered to be the bridesmaid, and there is nothing we can do about it."

The horn blew, and the sound of ritual and music gradually sounded.Chuyue came out from the inner hall and looked deeply at Xue Yao.

"Why did you come! Why did you promise them?" Xue Yao was filled with resentment. How could he allow his beloved woman to officiate the wedding ceremony for him and another woman?
"I... I still don't believe that even if you hate me, you wouldn't marry another woman so hastily. Do you have any difficulties?" Chuyue murmured, and met Xue Yao's eyes as soon as she raised her head.

Xue Yao sighed deeply, and restrained himself intentionally: "Marriage is a big deal, how can I play games, you go back quickly, you are not needed here."

"It's because you don't need me." Chuyue was heartbroken, and there seemed to be a thin layer of tears in her eyes.

Xue Yao opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but at this time Eunuch Gao shouted in a hoarse voice: "Please get the bride off the sedan chair!" After speaking, he winked at Chuyue, "Princess, hurry up and help the bride get off the sedan chair!" !"

Na Xi came in wearing a red wedding dress and a red hijab, with a red belt tied around her waist, and the other end of the red belt was held in Chuyue's hand.

Chuyue choked with sobs, "I invite... I invite the groom."

Xue Yao tried his best to endure it, his teeth seemed to be bitten to pieces: "You don't understand if I let you go?"

Chuyue smiled wryly, her voice trembling, "I also want to let go like you, but I can't do it, maybe I saw you get married with my own eyes, and I completely gave up."

"It's better to give up than die in the sky prison!" Xue Yao's tone was cold.

"Could it be! Did you marry her because you wanted to save me?" Chuyue's eyes widened, and for a moment they seemed to be radiant again.

Under the red hijab, Na Xi coughed impatiently.

"Of course not. Look around. This is the marriage between Xizhao and Nansang. It can't be explained by the relationship between children. Can you be more sensible and go away." Xue Yao waved his hand, signaling Chuyue to leave quickly.

When the three were at a stalemate, Dortu walked out with the emperor.

The emperor blushed from drinking, and frowning urged: "What's the matter? What's the matter if the auspicious time is missed? It's just slow!"

"It's nothing, it's windy outside, the emperor please go and sit on it." Eunuch Gao smiled obsequiously at the emperor.

Chuyue turned her back to wipe away her tears, and made a jerky smile: "The general, please pick up the bride." After speaking, she handed the red belt in her hand to Xue Yao.

Xue Yao's hand stopped in mid-air for a moment, and finally took it.

"I wish the bride and groom a happy marriage for a hundred years and have a baby early." Chuyue said softly, as if she was raving about a beautiful and fragile dream.

After finishing speaking, Chuyue looked at Eunuch Gao, "Eunuch, I'm not feeling well, and I'll rely on you from now on."

When Chu Yue just took a step, Xue Yao immediately chased him out, but was stopped by the stream.

"Xue Yao, the emperor is watching, don't ruin everything with your own hands." Na Xi was confident.

Xue Yao tightly closed his eyes, pulled up the red belt again, and led Na Xi into the inner hall.

Chuyue stood outside the door, looking at the joy and festivities inside and outside the inner hall from a distance, and the excitement belonged to them.

"Worship heaven and earth!"

"Two thanks to the high hall!"

"Bye husband and wife!"

"Licheng! Send to the bridal chamber!"

Eunuch Gao's voice was sharp and ear-piercing, and involuntarily entered Chuyue's ears, making her cry from pain.

Xue Yao's face kept flashing in front of Chuyue's eyes, getting closer and closer, he was wearing a bright red wedding dress, very handsome, just like the day she and Xue Yao got married.She just woke up from a coma that day, nestled in his arms, and saw this face for the first time through the gap in the hijab.At that time she thought: This is the husband in my dream?
He is.Although he always put on a dirty face, he is a very gentle person.He was her hero, the one she had so sincerely wanted to spend the rest of her life with.It's a pity that God failed to fulfill people's wishes. Their destinies only crossed briefly, and now they seem to be staggered, and they will never meet again.
