Perhaps because they were worried about the long nights and many dreams, the wedding was held in a hurry after the parade.
But it¡¯s not bad, Leo thought to himself, anyway, the whole castle and the whole city are now listening to her orders. Every word she spoke was like a golden rule, every word she spoke was like an oracle.
Leo was wearing a Varian robe, with a long strip of cloth hanging from his neck hanging down to his buttocks, and a white cloth wrapped around his head. He looked nondescript, neither like a black monkey nor a white devil.
"Clown." Rosie sneered from the side.
Yes, he is really a clown. Who is he trying to perform for in this outfit? He remembered the last time he wore such a ridiculous costume, when he was just a kid. It was a masquerade party, and he dressed up as a vampire ghost and played around in the party, hiding behind doors and in the bushes to scare girls. Thinking about it now, that was almost a century ago, and he couldn't even remember who the little girl was who was so frightened that he cried and attracted the guards. If his mother were alive, she would never want to see him dress up like this clumsy ghost to welcome her wedding.
Leo tugged at his clothes. The clothes were almost airtight, and the suffocating sweat made the whole body wet and uncomfortable, as if being put into a steamer. The wedding in his imagination should not be like this. It was as if he was shackled from head to toe, and the spider silk was entangled again and again, tighter and tighter, making him feel like he was suffocating. He never thought that his wife would be a mysterious woman he had only known for a dozen days. He knows nothing about the other party, and the two are full of overt and covert fighting, dangerous, and deadly. They are like two praying mantises about to marry. And he knew that it was usually the males who were eaten alive.
He took a sip of ice water to relieve the anxiety and uneasiness in his heart. There were only him and a few girls in the room,
"Why don't you speak?" Rosie leaned against the window and sneered coldly.
Flags were fluttering outside the window, and the sun had not yet reached the top of the city wall, but the cheers and the stench of sweat were already scattered in all directions. Guests will soon be filling the Throne Room, and there is no doubt that it will be a day of song and splendor, representing the union of the Shires and the Riverlands, showcasing the vastness of the Grand Alliance - enough to make the Lord claim The king¡¯s vast territory. If the Qianhu City-State has not yet been destroyed, this will be even more deserved. It's a pityforget it, the bargaining chip is in the hands of the female magician. He could only watch how she flipped the cards.
"Are you so happy that you are so happy?" Rosie spoke again, "Are you so happy that you couldn't help but selectively turn a blind eye to us?"
"That's not it." He opened his mouth and finally could only sigh. He really didn't know how to speak, what else to say? He knew that not only him, but also the girls in the room were not happy to see what they saw today. They would rather see one of them marry him than see a woman who intervenes unexpectedly and get there first. He presumed arrogantly. However, they were also helpless. Even himself. The only option is to make a desperate move.
Rosie came over reluctantly and stood in front of him. Her short ear-length hair shone with sunlight, piercing his eyes so much that he dared not look directly at her. "What is that?" she said coldly.
If he had known, nothing like this would have happened today. "You and I both know that this is impossible to do." He could only respond perfunctorily.
"Who knows what you are thinking in your heart¡ª¡ª"
Fortunately, before Rosie could press her again, salutes were fired in the square outside, and the maid knocked on the door, urging them that the wedding was about to begin and they should all take their places.

The new crown brought by the waiter was made of gold wire and crystal. It was half an arm high. It reflected colorful lights with a slight movement. Leo was curious how the thin temple bishop could support its weight. The other party was presiding over their wedding vows ceremony. Prince Barton and his fianc¨¦e stood in front of the tall gilded statue of the Desert Mother. They did not look like a union between people.
The bride wears an ivory silk dress and a gray and black lace skirt. There are countless small pearls on the skirt forming various flowers, which looks very cute. As the only daughter of Lord Goldship and the last heir of the Riverlands, she should have adopted the gold and black of the Oberyn family, but instead chose the colors of the temple to show her piety. The bride's cloak is made of green velvet and embroidered with a hundred gold roses. Leo didn't know what these symbolic meanings were for. Anyway, it must have come from Aurora's instruction.
The prince looked equally majestic, wearing a dark rose coat and a dark crimson velvet cloakbut that was all. He was like a manipulated puppet, with a silly smile on his face, a smile that looked like a complete fool. Just barely shed disgusting saliva.
"Today you should only have eyes for me, not anyone else." Aurora said, "What's more?Other men. "
Leo pretended not to hear his teasing. "I'm worried that the guy will swallow the rose in his hand as pig food." He said, "Look, his saliva is almost flowing out."
"You don't need to worry about this."
"Yes, yes, he is your puppet." He still didn't understand why she always insisted on letting Nianta marry the stupid pig prince? Do it for others to see? Or is it part of Prince Barton's deal with the devil?
"I'll tell you if you apologize," she said.
He shrugged decisively and said no more.
After the prince put on the gorgeous crown, the purple-robed bishop came to them. If it weren't for the other exquisite and luxurious jeweled crown in the opponent's hand, Leo almost forgot that he was one of them.
With two newlyweds, Leo couldn't help but maliciously wonder if the old man with the goatee in front of him would faint in the hall. He was officiating the wedding for his angel lady. The guy's hand holding the crown was already trembling, and his face turned red and white. Die quickly, die quickly. Leo was afraid that the world would be in chaos and he would curse the other party.
But how can everything go as he wants.
Although the bishop was excited, he did not fall down and die. He successfully handed the crown to Leo, who then put it on Aurora. In just a moment, he felt countless eyes focused on him, including envy, jealousy, hatred, and even madness. His eyes were like knives, making him feel like he was about to be chopped into pieces by these lives.
"What should you do next?" Aurora, who was wearing a silver crown, blinked.
He hesitated.
"Don't turn around and look at your girlfriends." Aurora dug her nails into his arms. "I am your wife now." She said softly, "Not them."
what is this? Did she make the lie come true? Orher eyes were smiling and she couldn't see anything, which made him even more confused. Leo suddenly felt a violent impulse in his heart. I just want to take off all her masks and disguises and see what kind of expression she will show after throwing away these things.
¡°You should know how to do this,¡± she urged again and again. ¡°Without it, the ceremony is not complete.¡±
He would rather be incomplete, then it would not count as a couple.
¡°Through this kiss, I offer my love.¡± Prince Patton next to him declared crisply, but his expression was stiff and there was no trace of joy. Nianta stiffened her neck, tears flashing in her eyes, and her uneasiness made her forget to reply.
She wanted to refuse. Leo could see it clearly. It's embarrassing for her, he thought apologetically, but there was nothing he could do about it. If possible, who would let a defenseless woman be the victim to save them? I wonder if since ancient times, when emperors sacrificed their daughters for marriage, would they have been so entangled in their hearts? I wanted to refuse and run to the battlefield like a man or a warrior, but I was also afraid of starting an uncontrollable war. Fortunately, they have one last option.
She delayed it for too long.
The prince repeated it again, and after waiting for a moment, Leo noticed an extremely weak wind of magic blowing by. What is she going to do? Nyanta wears a keystone that negates her spiritual overtones. Leo's heart suddenly rose, fearing that Aurora would discover something strange about her: disobeying her orders.
"Are you that impatient?" He tried to divert her attention.
Thank God, jealous Rosie is stopping her. I love you so much! He cheered inwardly. Aurora glared at the female mage in the crowd, gave up her indifferent behavior, and turned back to look at Leo. "Because if I don't force you, you can delay it again and again." She sneered coldly, "I have no doubt that if there is such a possibility, you will not kiss me until you die of old age."
"We have no feelings at all."
"You can't do it even if you're fake?" Her words sounded a little melancholy.
He didn¡¯t know how to respond, so he could only say dryly, ¡°I haven¡¯t tried it yet.¡±
"Then give it a try, alchemist." She stretched out her hand, fingers touching, and her white fingertips lightly touched his wrist. "You won't regret it. I swear, you'll be glad you met me. You're my lover, not my enemy."
It¡¯s hard to say. He didn't believe it at all. As for the lover, please, they are not children anymore, will he believe the nonsense of love at first sight? There is only confrontation and fighting between them, not intimacy and tenderness.
"What you did makes it impossible for me to see that."
"Time will tell everything." She lowered her eyes, like a sad little daughter-in-law. "Have I ever lied to you?"
The surroundings were so noisy that they had to lean in close to hear each other's soft words. BinThe guests booed. Did they think they were going to kiss like this? But the whistles and claps were drowned out by the drums and flutes. He raised his eyes and saw the pudgy prince standing on tiptoes and kissing Nianta on the lips. The crown once again emitted the rainbow light, and the bishop solemnly announced that Prince Barton of Siris County and Princess Nyanta, the heir of the Riverlands, would be one body, one mind, and one soul.
"It's our turn," she said. "Don't look at your girlfriend."
Leo raised his head and glanced at the statue of the Desert Mother. He had nowhere to hide. But the other party is not an ugly old woman, she is young, beautiful, and charming. You've earned it, he said to himself. So he lifted up her veil, aimed at her lips, and kissed her hard.
