Chapter 132 Qingqing Isn't Hungry, Let Me Go! (Subscription Requested)_3
Cheng Zhihai, standing to the side, now added with a smile.
"Guanger, that day when you brought Qianxue, the child, over to our Duke Zhen's Mansion for the marriage arrangement, the person we agreed upon was indeed this Granny Qianhua."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Guang muttered an "Oh" somewhat absentmindedly and, without being impolite, bowed to Granny Qianhua.
Granny Qianhua gazed at Cheng Guang with a smile, her eyes expressing a touch of kindness, "Princely Heir, there's no need to be so formal with an old woman like me."
As she spoke, Granny Qianhua lightly touched Cheng Guang's robe, and a gentle force dissipated the bow he had made.
Under Granny Qianhua's hands, Cheng Guang's body, despite being enhanced by the Fruits of Path to Divinity, couldn't resist in the slightest, as if he were a little chick.
Cheng Guang's eyes widened, and he looked at Granny Qianhua with surprise and uncertainty.
This Granny Qianhua.
Could she be a Sky-Man?
At this moment, Cheng Guang took a moment to sense Granny Qianhua's aura more carefully, and under his perception, he felt that her presence, though profound, gave him an unfathomable feeling.
Hiss...
He couldn't help but draw in a breath of cold air.
This feeling, it seemed even stronger than an ordinary Sky-Man, almost on par with Empress Wei of Great Wei.
The depths of the Taihao Sword Sect, one of the Four Great Hidden Sword Sects, could it be so rich??
Granny Qianhua's ancient but clear eyes gazed at Cheng Guang, and seemingly noticing the shock in his eyes, she gently said with a chuckle, "We are all old now, the future world is for young ones like the Princely Heir."
"Princely Heir's skills are impressive and your opportunities abundant. The commotion you created last night, I felt it too," Granny Qianhua added.
"Truly extraordinary."
"Be careful when you are away from home," Granny Qianhua reminded him with a smile.
Cheng Guang obediently responded, then conversed and laughed with Cheng Zhihai and Wu Yuemei, as the three of them headed towards the interior of Duke Zhen's Mansion.
They chatted casually in Cheng Zhihai's southeastern courtyard.
During that time, guests gathered in droves.
Aside from the Imperial Palace, almost every dignitary from the entire Court of Great Zhou had arrived at Duke Zhen's Mansion.
Outside of Duke Zhen's Mansion, along the streets stretching for ten miles, banquet tables were filled.
Anyone with sincerity who could offer a word or two of congratulations could dine there.
The event was extraordinarily lively, with an atmosphere filled with fervor.
As the clock struck the auspicious hour and the bells rang at sunrise.
Wu Yuemei put down her teacup, interrupting the conversation between the two families and said to Cheng Guang, "The auspicious hour has arrived, let's start the wedding ceremony."
"Guanger, go and bring Qianxue over. Even though she's already at Duke Zhen's Mansion, all the proper rituals and ceremonies must be observed without exception," Wu Yuemei's voice fell.
Cheng Guang nodded slightly, stood up, and walked towards the Million Specie Garden in the distance.
During this time, the gazes of many guests within the Million Specie Garden converged on Cheng Guang.
Cheng Guang wasn't the least bit stage-frightened. Facing the watchful eyes of the surrounding dignitaries, his complexion remained unchanged as he walked straight into the Million Specie Garden.
Upon entering the Million Specie Garden, it was clear that the place was meticulously arranged by Steward Wang's orders, with festive red paper visible everywhere, yet not gaudy—all was just right.
"Princely Heir, Miss Ning is already inside the room," said Qing Luan as she came up to guide Cheng Guang.
Cheng Guang nodded slightly, donned in red attire, approached the room's door, and pushed it open.
As Cheng Guang pushed the door, sunlight quickly filled the room, following his figure inside.
The room also had been specially arranged.
Ning Qianxue, dressed in red with a veil over her head, sat primly in front of a writing desk.
In front of her lay the red paper she had just used to tint her lips.
It looked like she had just blotted her lips, leaving behind a light impression.
As soon as Cheng Guang entered the door, Ning Qianxue sensed his presence.
Her hands nervously clasped together, her fingers fidgeting and twirling aimlessly.

Seeing this, Cheng Guang couldn't help but chuckle.
Ning Qianxue, a character that one could describe as 'socially savvy', he didn't expect to see her nervous.
Yet it was somewhat understandable, as it was her first time facing such a situation in her life.
Cheng Guang gave a smile, stepped forward, and gently took Ning Qianxue's hand.
It was slightly warm.
Like a piece of warm jade.
"Let's go," Cheng Guang said softly.
Upon hearing Cheng Guang's voice, Ning Qianxue's initial tension relaxed somewhat.
She slowly stood up.
And stood close to Cheng Guang.
Like a child lacking a sense of security, she tightly clasped Cheng Guang's hand.
Cheng Guang, leading Ning Qianxue, walked out of the room.
He then helped her into the bridal sedan chair.
Cheng Guang himself mounted the Dragon Horned Horse that Steward Wang had prepared in advance.
"Lift!"
A servant's shout commanded.
The sedan chair carrying Ning Qianxue was lifted.
Cheng Guang, riding the Dragon Horned Horse, led Ning Qianxue out of Duke Zhen's Mansion and circled within the Capital city.
Since it was the Town-Nation Duke's Heir's grand wedding, the streets of the Capital city were filled with onlookers.
Everyone used their gaze to observe the Town-Nation Duke's Heir, Cheng Guang.
Being frequently observed by others, Cheng Guang had grown accustomed to it and did not feel any discomfort.
But Ning Qianxue couldn't handle it.
She had grown up in the Sword Pond Ancient Courtyard of Taihao Sword Sect, so her sociable nature had developed due to limited contact with outsiders.
Suddenly finding herself the focus of countless people's attention made her tense instantly.
