Night of the Divorce! A Proud Lady Was Forced to Marry the Emperor's Uncle

After Old Madam Jiang spoke, no one dared to delay any longer. Xiao Nanye carefully placed Jiang Peihuan into the sedan chair

“I’ve put a lot of snacks inside. If you get bored, you can have some,” Xiao Nanye whispered into Jiang Peihuan’s ear as he settled her in.

There were sixteen sedan chairs, and they were very spacious.

“Let’s go!”

As Xiao Nanye’s command echoed, Jiang Peihuan felt the sedan chair start to move. She carefully lifted the red veil covering her head. She saw an array of cakes and snacks inside the sedan chair, and even some tea.

Seeing all this, a smile graced Jiang Peihuan’s eyes.

Xiao Nanye rode at the forefront on his horse, occasionally glancing back at the sedan chair. Behind Jiang Peihuan’s sedan chair was a seemingly endless procession, all her dowry.

Jiang Hong and Xue Yan had prepared a dowry of 120 loads for Jiang Peihuan. Previously, the gifts Xiao Nanye sent were all added to the dowry, making the procession seemingly endless, filled with red.

Sitting in the sedan chair, Jiang Peihuan’s mind was a whirlwind of thoughts. In her previous life, she had been forced into taking her own life by Xiao Junhao.

Upon reincarnation, she sought revenge and the protection of the Jiang family. She hadn’t expected to meet Xiao Nanye in this life. Thinking of him, her expression softened.

Suddenly, the sedan chair came to a halt, pulling her out of her reverie.

Jiang Peihuan leaned towards the window, calling out, “Yue Er?”

Accompanying her marriage were Yue Er, Lu Er, and Ye Xiao.

“Eldest Miss, I’m here,” Yue Er replied hastily.

“Why have we stopped?”

“Today is also the day Prince Qing is getting married. He just picked up his bride from the post station, and our processions have met.”

Guessing from the time, Jiang Peihuan presumed they were near the city’s protective river. Due to the river, the road was narrow, unable to accommodate two processions at once.

However, Jiang Peihuan believed that Xiao Nanye could handle it.

Up ahead, because of the wedding, Xiao Nanye’s eyes had a hint of gentleness that he didn’t have in the past. However, when he saw Xiao Junhao blocking his way, the gentleness in Xiao Nanye’s eyes instantly disappeared.

Xiao Junhao didn’t look pleased either.

Because all the princes had gone to the King Cheng’s mansion, so Xiao Junhao was alone for his wedding. Compared to Xiao Nanye’s procession, his looked thin.

Compared to Xiao Nanye’s team, his team was very thin.

Looking at the dowry behind Jiang Peihuan’s sedan chair, Xiao Junhao’s face darkened even more.

Although King Chujiang’s mansion was very wealthy, But afther King Chujiang died, most of the treasures were sent to the court.

Hence, Jiang Yan’s dowry seemed average. It didn’t seem significant until compared with Jiang Peihuan’s, where the difference was glaring.

“Prince Qing, as the junior, you should step back a few steps.”

Seeing that neither party had any intention of speaking up, the Eldest Princess, who was the matchmaker, stepped forward. After some thought, she turned to Xiao Junhao and said.

On any other day, Xiao Junhao would never have refused the Eldest Princess.

But today, upon hearing her words, Xiao Junhao directly responded, “Imperial Aunt, on a normal day, I would yield. They say the newlyweds are the most important. Today is not just Imperial Uncle wedding, but also mine. So, today, 1 do not wish to step back.”

“If you won’t move, you’ll have to!”

As Xiao Junhao’s words fell, Xiao Nanye immediately responded.

Before Xiao Junhao could react, he felt a pain in his shoulder, and the next moment, he was thrown off his horse.

Xiao Junhao’s reaction was swift. When Xiao Nanye kicked him off the horse, he quickly stabilized himself. But even so, he could see the mockery in everyone’s eyes.

Xiao Junhao looked at Xiao Nanye with an intense gloom in his eyes.

When their eyes met, Xiao Nanye did not flinch. After a long time, Xiao Junhao turned to the people behind him and said, “Retreat!”

The people from Prince Qing’s Mansion stepped aside, and Xiao Nanye led his group forward.

The sedan chair continued its journey. Even though she couldn’t see the expression on Xiao Junhao’s face, Jiang Peihuan could imagine how displeased he must have looked.

At that moment, Jiang Peihuan felt immensely pleased because none of these events happened in her past life.

With the previous Emperor and Xiao Nanye’s biological mother both gone, after entering King Cheng’s mansion, the two only worshipped heaven and earth. Then, Jiang Peihuan was taken to the room.

“Huan Er, I’ll step out for a moment and come back soon.”

Seeing Jiang Peihuan sitting on the bed, Xiao Nanye really didn’t want to leave to deal with the others outside. But with everyone waiting outside, Xiao Nanye had no choice.

Hearing Xiao Nanye’s voice, Jiang Peihuan nodded, “Alright.”

“Imperial Uncle, shouldn’t you remove the veil for Imperial Aunt first?”

Just as Jiang Peihuan was speaking, the room’s door was suddenly pushed open. The ones who entered were naturally Prince An and the others.

Normally, they would never dare to tease Xiao Nanye. But tonight, perhaps Xiao Nanye was in a good mood, so everyone continuously joked around.

Under their tease, Xiao Nanye gently lifted the veil from Jiang Peihuan’s head.

When the veil was lifted, Jiang Peihuan felt a brightness in front of her. The first thing she saw was Xiao Nanye in red.

This was the first time Jiang Peihuan saw Xiao Nanye in red. She was used to seeing men in black. In her eyes, Xiao Nanye looked best in black. But now, seeing Xiao Nanye in red, Jiang Peihuan changed her mind.

The red made Xiao Nanye look more enchanting, adding a hint of allure to his presence.

At this moment, Xiao Nanye’s eyes were filled with amazement.

He always knew that Jiang Peihuan was beautiful. Usually, she didn’t wear makeup, but today, she was fully dressed up.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Nanye felt a sense of unreality.

He reached out and suddenly grasped Jiang Peihuan’s hand. Only after feeling the warmth of her palm did he feel a sense of reality.

“No wonder Imperial is so smitten with the Imperial Aunt. She is indeed so beautiful.”

Not only Xiao Nanye was amazed, but the other princes were also stunned upon seeing Jiang Peihuan.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Nanye couldn’t help but frown. He instinctively shielded Jiang Peihuan and then looked at the princes, saying, “Weren’t you going out for drinks? Leave now..”
