Especially Gu Feirui, because when the woman lifted her hair just now, they all saw her profile.

Here, Qi Yixuan was distracted with his soft jade in his arms. The woman sitting on his lap lowered her head, and her cold hair brushed across the side of Qi Yixuan's face.

"Husband, we have already worshipped heaven and earth. Don't you want to enter the bridal chamber with me?" An icy breath blew on his face, and Qi Yixuan's body suddenly trembled involuntarily.

A gust of cold wind blew by, and all the candles in the hall were suddenly extinguished. The moonlight gloomily filtered in through the gaps in the window frames.

Gu Feirui squatted on the eaves and felt cramps in his calves. The excitement made him feel cold all over.

Only then did Qi Yixuan realize that something was wrong. He had never heard this woman's voice before.

The woman sitting on his lap lowered her head, and he immediately closed his eyes, with every muscle in his body tensed to the limit.

He finally understood why the clothes on Wen Wangshu looked so familiar. It was exactly the same clothes worn by the woman he married in his dream that day. And the woman sitting on his lap now was definitely not Wen Wangshu, and might not even be a human.

Something flowed down my hair, my body became increasingly damp, and the air was filled with a smell of blood that gradually became stronger.

The speed of the water drops was getting faster and faster, falling on Qi Yixuan's hair, shoulders, and body. Faintly, he seemed to hear bursts of wailing sounds.

Qi Yixuan was almost driven crazy by the noises and movements, especially with his eyes closed. All his senses were infinitely magnified and the air seemed to be frozen.

At this moment, the woman suddenly bit his shoulder with such force that it seemed to penetrate his bones. Qi Yixuan was so shocked and in pain that he fell backwards and fainted.

Gu Lingze and Zhao Chengmo jumped down from the beam, but Gu Feirui did not move. The two turned to look at him. Gu Feirui laughed dryly and said, "My legs are numb. I'll squat here for a while."

Gu Lingze chuckled and walked towards Qi Yixuan without exposing him.

"Red cherry."

The woman bowed and said, "I am honored to meet you, Taoist priest."

Gu Lingze nodded, "I'm sorry to have wronged you. I'll send you to reincarnate right now."

He took out three talismans from his sleeve, lit them up, then sat down cross-legged, calmed his mind and clasped his hands together.

"Gu Lingze, the 42nd generation disciple of the Guiyi Sect, appeals to the Great Lord of Rescue to open the Five Directions of the Underworld and lend me my disciple to liberate the souls of the dead."

A cold wind blew by, and Hongying's figure gradually disappeared, leaving only a sigh.

"In my next life, I want to live a different life."

After hearing her murmurs, the three of them felt mixed emotions and couldn't help but sigh.

When Qi Yixuan regained consciousness again, he felt that he was lying on the bed and could feel the bright light outside through his eyelids.

He opened his eyes and sat up suddenly. Then he began to breathe heavily, and his lungs felt sore from inhaling so much air in an instant.

"Your Highness, you are finally awake."

As soon as Qi Yixuan heard the woman's voice, he fell off the bed and rolled to the ground.

"Your Highness!" Wen Wangshu hurried over to help him, but Qi Yixuan shook her hand away.

"Don't touch me!"

Qi Yixuan's almost roaring voice startled Wen Wangshu.

"Get out! Get out now!"

Wen Wangshu turned around and looked at Cheng Jiao for help. She was now at a loss.

"Please take your people out first, Princess. Your Highness and I will stay here alone." Cheng Jiao's cold voice came from behind the mask, still without any emotion.

Wen Wangshu took out a silk handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped the tears from his face, then turned around and left with the palace maids.

Qi Yixuan was still sitting barefoot and curled up on the ground, his head buried in his chest, indifferent to what was happening in the outside world.

Cheng Jiao walked over and squatted in front of him, "Your Highness, I have long told you not to underestimate Gu Lingze, but you never took it to heart."

After he finished speaking, Qi Yixuan still didn't look up. Cheng Jiao curled the corner of his mouth sarcastically. Idiots always have to be taught a lesson before they know how to be afraid. After the fear, they start to escape again. They are simply a bunch of mud.

"She will come to see you again tonight." As soon as Cheng Jiao finished speaking, Qi Yixuan raised his head suddenly, his eyes full of bloodshot, and asked with a distorted expression: "Why did she come again!"

"Because she is the wife that Gu Lingze arranged for you in a ghost marriage." Cheng Jiao also had a hand in this matter, but he had not yet completed his worship of heaven and earth, so the biggest problem was not here.

"If the bride's body is still there, let the two of you sleep in the same coffin for one night, and then perform a ritual, and this matter will be over."

Qi Yixuan was on the verge of collapse just by hearing this method, let alone actually doing it.

“But this method doesn’t work now.”

Qi Yixuan stared at Cheng Jiao with eyes wide open, "Why?"

"Because the woman you married was Hongying." At this point, Cheng Jiao couldn't help but frowned, "She was dismembered after her death."

Qi Yixuan stood up shakily, then began to laugh out loud. The giggling sound echoed in the hall. Then the laughter gradually became lower, and a whimpering sound was heard, and then it turned into crying.

As expected, a pheasant is a pheasant and can never become a phoenix. He has always regarded Gu Lingze as a vain boy like Gu Yangjia, but he did not expect that the other party would force him to this extent.

After a period of madness, Qi Yixuan felt his mind was clearer than ever before. A hint of viciousness flashed across his eyes. No matter how powerful she was, she would still be his in the end.

In the past few days, due to the postponement of the palace examination, the entire capital has been in an uproar. There are even rumors that the emperor will choose a replacement from among the princes. So who will be the replacement has become the focus of everyone's attention.

Because of a murder in Siyi Hall, all the envoys and officials who came to pay tribute were moved to the imperial farm outside the city for their accommodation. Dai Zhengqi even dispatched more Jinwu Guards to ensure the safety of these people.

These days, the Taifu Mansion has been crowded with people, all because of the palace examination.

As Xie Xiru was the imperial tutor of the dynasty and a role model for scholars all over the world, this juncture naturally pushed him to the forefront.

Gu Tianhua and Xie Qingwan brought them to the mansion that day. Everyone in the Taifu Mansion was very busy, and even Old Lady Xie looked depressed and tired.

There are countless students coming to the capital to take part in the imperial examinations, and now is a turbulent time. Some people have already begun to incite the establishment of a crown prince. As for who it is, they all know it.

As Xie Tianhua and his companions approached the door of the study, they heard a heated debate coming from inside. The content of the debate was whether or not to write a letter to the emperor to ask him to appoint a crown prince.
