A few days later, the auspicious date for the crown prince's wedding was announced by the ministry of rites. The wedding was set to hold in a week and the preparation had begun.
As Nie Shaoqing predicted, the news of the Crown Prince's upcoming wedding took everyone's attention away from the First Prince's issues.
The wedding was all everyone talked about including the commoners.
It was all everyone could talk of, tales of the future Crown Princess's kindness began to spread. Grand Chancellor Zhao was satisfied with the result. His impression of Nie Shaoqing improved.
Prince Rong on the other hand was displeased with how things turned out. He had put in so much effort to spread the tales of the former Crown Prince's escapades.
However, the prospect of finally achieving his dreams made him stay still. He had been in Lianxi for two weeks and in that short time was gradually pulling his resources together to make one final move.
