Chapter 450: Perhaps Out of Jealousy
Fortunately, Ji Qingyu was not in the teahouse, sparing the discomfort of an encounter.
While Leng Yu Yan was thinking this, she suddenly heard someone shout, "The Beiliang Princess has arrived!"
Ye Jiu leaned out of the window and then quickly drew back. "She’s still far away."
Leng Yu Yan said indifferently, "How can one see her face when she sits inside a horse carriage?"
"You don’t know the whole story," Ye Jiu explained. "When the procession reached the city gates, the horse carriage was changed, and on Vermilion Bird Street, they put up curtains on all sides of the carriage, within which sits the Beiliang Princess, allowing her appearance to be seen."
"Why do they do such a thing?"
"A Princess of Marriage is naturally chosen for her remarkable beauty," Ye Jiu clarified. "As for why, it’s to let the common people see the beauty of the Beiliang Princess, showing their sincerity."
Leng Yu Yan nodded. "I see."
Ye Jiu lowered her voice. "I almost became a Princess of Marriage myself, so I understand these things well."
After chatting idly for a while and the noise outside growing louder, they finally stood up to look out the window.
Riding tall horses at the forefront of the procession were Ye Zhenyu and Li Yuyue, while sitting atop a carriage with hanging curtains that let the breeze through was a youthful lady.
