Afraid that the people will misunderstand him, Hu Yiqye waited for Ying Momo. He didn't care to hold her hands, but he walked side by side to her. Usually the emperor is always at least a step ahead of the empress. Hu Yiqye was upset about the matter before and that made him forget that he was accompany her like that. Wenchin quietly dismiss herself as she looked at the newlywed couple of the Chu country. She was very happy for her mistress. As Hu Yiqye got closer to her he can smell her scent. It was a nice earthy smell. The smell was strong, but it wasn't overwhelming. Such an exotic smell. For a second there, Hu Yiqye thought that Ying Momo was wearing some expensive cologne. No that can't be. What is he thinking? It's impossible. Hu Yiqye was in deep thoughts when his favorite eunuch reminded him that he has to return to the bed chambers. Many guests were being greeted. Eunuch Gao face lightened up as he sees Minister Wang.
"This high servant greets the Minister."
"No need for ceremony. I came to congratulate his royal highness and her royal highness." Minister Wang bashfully replies.
The two were talking in a coquettish way as if they were a couple displaying their affections towards another. Minister Wang may seem to be congratulating Hu Yiqye gleefully. His dark and long beard contours his chiseled jaw line. His eyes and nose bridge were deeply carved as if he was a statue of an art center piece. One can tell that the man was an eye candy in his youth. His handsomely facial features were hiding away his deep thoughts. Minister Wang was upset when Ying BuChu sent his granddaughter to the palace. Minister Wang had wanted his granddaughter to be the empress, but his strength wasn't as superb as Ying BuChu. Before this he didn't want to attend but he heard a rumor about Ying Momo. People had said that she was dimwitted and very plain. The only reason he had come was to see the plain Ying Momo to embarrass herself. This will make his heart content, due to his jealousy of Prime Minister Ying BuChu. Seeing the bride's appearance with the long veil covering her, he can tell she wasn't plain at all. Her hands were smooth and very fair. The girl also has a very alluring scent that he can't describe. If he was still in his youth his heart would pound.
Ying Momo became queasy again. Her hangover was really bad this time. She hasn't had liquor for who knows how long. Wait! She hasn't had liquor in this lifetime before. The alcohol that she has been drinking in this world were mainly made from fruits, so the alcohol contents were very low. You can drown yourself in them and still be sober. She wanted to celebrate a bachelorette party because she never had one herself. In her past life she only attended them, and she even hosted one before. But she was never engaged or married. That's why this time she couldn't let her chance pass her by. In this weird world that she was reborn in, it didn't have liquor or high concentrated alcohol. It's almost as if she was in medieval China. But clearly, she knew she wasn't on earth. The customs and landscapes of this world where different from earth. Now that her homemade moonshine with a very high alcohol content had finally show their side effects, it made her sick. Hu Yiqye looked at the weird lady besides him. What is she planning now? He quietly observe his bride.
The room is spinning and she was wavering. In this state, she can't stand any longer. Ying Momo starts to sway. Her dizziness causes her to be silly and her body sways around as if she was a snake.
Why is she moving like that? This snake, I let a snake into my palace. Hu Yiqye coldly walks away. What he doesn't know was that Ying Momo was standing on his long robe. His wedding gown that was half crimson and half gold was very eye catching. Too bad, Momo was to dizzy from her hang over to see that she is standing on his gown. Hu Yiqye took a huge step but was pulled back. This time he fell forward, not backwards. Seventeenth Prince grumpily storm into the wedding banquet. He wants to know what's all the fuss was about when he saw a scene that will haunt him forever. His mouth agape in horror.
"Royal brother what are you doing?! Why are you molesting a servant?!"
Hu Yiqye has fallen over but this time he fell forward. He tries to grab a hold onto something but the only thing that was in front of him was Eunuch Gao's trousers. Both of Eunuch Gao's plump white cheeks made a grand entrance at the wedding banquet. The guests couldn't help but gasp.
Someone accidently slips out, "Wow, Eunuch Gao's butt is even fairer than the number one beauty!"
"It looks like two cotton balls."
"Is Wang MeiYing's butt as fair as Eunuch Gao's?"
Minister Wang hears someone's comparison of his granddaughter's butt to Eunuch Gao and it anger him.
"Who dares to dishonor my granddaughter?!"
Before he could ask any further someone loudly says, "Oh my gosh, so it's true. I've only heard rumors. But not only his royal highness embraces his imperial guard, he even molested his own servants!"
The empress dowager fainted at the sight. She had called his younger brother to change the troublesome tide at the banquet. Instead this younger brother only dug the grave deeper by accusing his brother being a broken sleeve. Defeats the whole purpose why he was called upon. She couldn't handle it anymore and lost consciousness. Wenchin smacked her palm into her face so hard that she was hoping it was enough strength to kill herself. Ying Momo had quietly escaped the chaos that she had created. Wenchin was watching her the whole time. Her mistress can be so smart and yet so stupid at the same time. Wenchin thought that she must've committed a formidable sin in her past life to end up serving such a troublesome mistress. How is she going to be the mother of Chu country? Such disastrous things will only happen more.
