Chapter 23: A Real Wedding
The Hall of Pines had never held a wedding like it.
Three hundred disciples stood along the pillars again, but this time nobody stared at the bride's fingers.
They stared at the bride's belt, because she had refused to take it off.
"The vials stay," Wanqing had said at the mirror. "I wore them the first time. They're the only dowry I have."
Her robe was red, plain cotton dyed with madder, with no gold on it anywhere.
Yuhang waited at the far end in his pine chair.
His hair was tied back with a white cord that Bao had cut from the old wedding silk.
The scar on his cheekbone caught the lantern light.
When she reached him, he looked her up and down with open, shameless pleasure.
"You came a long way for the free lunch," he said.
"This time I want the cake."
The Sect Master stood on the dais behind them, in plain grey, with the jade seal on a cord at his waist.
The six Elders sat in a row.
Hou's chair at the end was empty and had been swept clean.
They bowed to Heaven and Earth.
They bowed to the Sect Master, who nodded and looked away fast.
At the second bow, Wanqing slid two fingers under Yuhang's sleeve and laid them on his wrist.
