Song Qingshu had only said it in anger. Of course, he knew that was impossible. Having two princesses marry the same man was already unprecedented; if they were made to wait together in the bridal chamber like ordinary women awaiting their husband, what kind of propriety would that be? Where would the imperial family's dignity go?
Even in an ordinary family marrying off daughters, there was no reason for two brides to stay in the same room at the same time.
As Song Qingshu was racking his brains, a graceful yellow figure suddenly emerged from the corridor. It was the Yellow-robed Woman, whom he had not seen for several days.
"Long time no see..." Song Qingshu said, inexplicably feeling a little guilty. But on second thought, he found his reaction strange. Why did it feel like he had been caught cheating by his wife?
"Only a few days." The Yellow-robed Woman was still as radiant as ever, though there was a trace of desolation between her brows. "By the way, I haven't had the chance to congratulate you yet."
Hearing the lack of sincerity in her tone, Song Qingshu felt awkward as well and could not help changing the subject. "I haven't seen you these past few days. What have you been busy with?"
"Sorting through some belongings my master left behind, and reminiscing over old things." The Yellow-robed Woman sighed softly, clearly unwilling to continue that topic. Pointing toward the room inside, she said, "I just went in and had a private talk with Yuan Yuan and Hu'er. I didn't disturb you, did I?"
"You didn't, you didn't. You're their elder sister, and you put in so much effort to save them. You're already the people closest to them in this world," Song Qingshu said sheepishly. *What is this?
