Jiang Pengji briefly nodded her head and took a deep breath. She said with a heavy heart, “My sister is pampered at home, and is inevitably willful. After Zhengzhe marries her, please be patient with her. The auspicious hour is approaching. I do not want to create trouble. Please just promise me this one thing: For the rest of your lives, treat her as when you first met. In wealth or in poverty, don’t forget your love for her. If you give me your word, as her older brother, I will be comforted.”

Wuma Jun solemnly bowed with respect and said, “Please rest assured, Lanting. I will not let her down for the rest of my life.”

“That is good.” Jiang Pengji turned around. Her eyes were filled with a sadness, as if she were reluctant to part with her sister. Wuma Jun was secretly happy––he had made it through that hurdle.

Even though she did not ask difficult questions or make things hard for Wuma Jun, the sense of concern for her sister’s marriage touched the hearts of many. One could not help but gasp discreetly. A lot of sincerity was given to the thought.

It was perfectly normal for someone to dislike his brother-in-law. However, to deliberately make things difficult for his brother-in-law would not bring his sister any happiness.

Her brother-in-law was magnanimous, and naturally would not bother Jiang Pengji with his antics. If her brother-in-law was narrow-minded, it could indirectly affect his sister.

The marriage ceremony was already conducted thus far. There was no room to go back on his vows. Despite how demanding his brother-in-law was, his sister already belonged to him, her husband.

Rather than racking her brain to create trouble, it was better to advise her brother-in-law sincerely. In such a tricky scenario, Jiang Pengji’s caring brother image stood out.

The audience in the live streaming room saw the scene and could not help but feel a wave of internal disgust.

Laosiji Lianmeng: “Hahaha. If I didn’t know any inside information, I may have been fooled by the streamer’s acting.”

Since when was he a good brother? The fellow was heartless, all right!

Wodemai Youshengyinma: “Even though I know it is fake, I give 82 points for the streamer’s acting just now. The remaining will be given a ‘666’ manner. Despite knowing that she was dramatizing it, I feel she is still a good ‘brother,’ wanting the best for her sister. She cannot bear for her sister to marry, but has to deal with her heartache and wish only the best for her. She sees how, before her very eyes, an outsider is taking her intelligent and pampered sister away.”

Tingdedao Shengyinbu: “Pei, your imagination is too much. The streamer clearly wears an innocent skin, but is truthfully a hypocrite. With your imagination, she appears to have a deep, affectionate love for her sister. It is shameless... I actually believe in what was said.”

Jiang Pengji ignored the massive outcry on the bullet screen. Her pupils were in a daze, and she was unwilling to let go upon seeing the bride, Liu Huan, being led out.

The marriage gown in Dongqing was different from the ones the audience in the live streaming room knew of. Even though the color theme was an auspicious red color, the groom wore black-colored attire. The bridal gown was mainly green and dark purple. There were many layers to the gown, and the colors went from within to without, and from light to dark.

The marriage gowns were strictly categorized according to one’s status––thus the stark difference in the two’s attire.

The empress was the most honorable, and her gown had eighteen layers. The color and design of each layer were strictly regulated.

Liu Huan was the legal wife of the prince. Her marriage gown was only one rung below the empress and crown princess. It was comparable to ones that royalty and nobles wore, and had twelve layers.

At present, the phoenix coronet and robes of rank that the audience in the live streaming room were familiar with were absent. They also did without the red veil for the bride. However, as Liu Huan carefully walked out, Jiang Pengji clearly saw the bullet screen in the live streaming room become a large exclamation mark.

Hairpins, dangling accessories worn by women, hair ornaments of gold... There were twelve of each item. Her hair was as dark as ink and was tied up high, held in place by an exquisite jade crown. The jade was carved as a beautiful flower, and was placed amid her hair. It looked like it came to life and was like a real flower just picked from the tree. Her entire head accessory was made of jade and could dazzle anyone.

Some fashionable audience members could not resist taking a screenshot of the design. They zoomed in on Liu Huan’s head accessory.

Every piece they identified sparked a nostalgic feeling in their hearts.

Finally, an audience member spoke up with emotion. “How is this a marriage? This is simply a matter of putting the most expensive objects on one’s head. Only––it looks so good!”

Yingyang Kuaixian: “I feel like replicating this wedding ceremony. I wonder if Taoniang will push for a luxurious wedding package after today. If so, it is mandatory to bring one’s boyfriend along, and these items are of more value than a westernized wedding.”

Tingdedao Shengyinbu: “En, Taoniang is all powerful. After young Xu Ke’s wedding, a wedding shop owned by Taoniang immediately advertised a similar wedding package. On average, there were 40,000 to 50,000 packages sold. Such is its demand...”

Jiang Pengji’s saw the content on the bullet screen from the corner of her eye. Her brows were raised for a moment.

Businessmen were indeed particular. Their business acumen was so accurate.

Laosiji Lianmeng: “That wedding company? The basic package demands 9,999 yuan. I saw the customer’s screenshot, and it was hilarious. A customer commented on their product satisfaction... Look at Xu Ke and Xunmei, who look so compatible, and who enjoy every moment together. This is for couples to pit themselves against each other.”

At that, the audience started in with their insults.

Putaojiazi Daole: “I agree with what Laosiji said above. Do you know how expensive the accessory on the streamer’s sister’s head is? I am in the field, and considering the market price now. It goes by the billions––at least three carats and above. How can Taoniang’s counterfeit goods, which cost a few dollars, be compared to the effect of wearing one that costs billions? This is only a head accessory, and is not considered part of the tailor-made wedding gown...”

Even so, there were still audience members with itchy hands who went to search Taoniang. After the input of keywords, many pages of information surfaced.

Unbeknownst to Jiang Pengji, the mysterious live streaming room, in their own dimensions, also experienced a big crisis, which thereby gave rise to various start-ups... Of course, when people became rich, they did not forget to give back to Jiang Pengji as a token of appreciation.

The live streaming room was full of noise. Jiang Pengji saw the bullet screens too often. She decided to block it for a while and held on to Liu Huan, who reached her hands out to her.

“You are henceforth going to marry into the royal family. You must live well. If you face any grievances, you must tell me, your brother...” Jiang Pengji said sentimentally. She sounded like she was choking up with emotions, and was very reluctant to part with her sister. Others listened and were deeply moved.

Liu Huan was wary, but also knew that it was not a good time to burn bridges. She just bowed respectfully to Jiang Pengji. Her eyes were filled with tears. “Brother... Take care...”

Compared to Jiang Pengji, the king of actors at the Oscar awards, Wuma Jun and Liu Huan would, at most, only win the new actor and actress award. Their acting ability was weak and could be seen through. Moreover, Jiang Pengji was, at present, at the height of her acting. Liu Huan was not focused, and so the contrast of acting skills between them was stark.

The marriage ceremony in the royal family was different from that amongst commoners. If it was between average people, the proceedings would have been lengthened. Since Wuma Jun was a prince, he had all the advantages and easily invited the bride, Liu Huan, up into his luxurious carriage, which eight people carried. He then got up on the horse in high spirits.

Even though the marriage ceremony was not as extensive as Princess An Yina’s wedding, the dowries were the hot topic of the people in Shangjing. Ten miles of red dowries... It lived up to its name.

There was a banquet of hundreds of tables at the fourth prince’s mansion. They served fresh seafood, many delicacies, and there was a dazzling line up of expensive and unique dishes.

Although the culinary scene in ancient times was not as advanced as the era where the live streaming room was, their ingredients were more than enough.

In the more advanced era, wild animals were protected. There were animals protected by the country, and animals that were protected worldwide... But in the current era, as long as it was edible, all food could be served and complemented with the chef’s careful cooking. He beautified the food with many carvings, which made them come to life. It was extravagance at its maximum.

A hundred tables of celebration overflowed with delicacies.

Jiang Pengji was representative of the bride’s family, and was a respected guest.

However, from the start of the wedding banquet until sunset, throughout the customs the newlyweds had to observe, her expression was never calm nor relaxed.
