One day after transmigrating, Sang Li Wan became the early-dying cannon fodder in a revenge novel.
To survive, she decided to cling tightly to her villainous husband's thigh and ensure he...
Jun Mochen was stunned, as if he had not expected Chen Yan to say such a thing to him.
He looked at the veil in the bride's hand and did not speak for a while.
Then, the bridesmaid seemed a little embarrassed and said, "But, this is the rule..."
rule?
Jun Mochen thought about it carefully. Is there such a rule?
It's just a custom at best, everyone wears it, but if you don't wear it, it doesn't matter.
Seeing that the expression on Jun Mochen's face had relaxed a little, Chen Yan narrowed her eyes and struck while the iron was hot by reaching out to pull Jun Mochen's sleeve.
She said softly, "I don't really want to wear it."
Although Jun Mochen's obsession with Chen Yan is no longer the same as before, perhaps it is because he has suffered a lot of setbacks from Sang Liwan during this period and has never even seen a good face from him. But when he saw Chen Yan looking at him with a gentle face, his heart suddenly softened.
No matter what, Chen Yan has married him, and he is her husband. If he can't make the decision on such a small matter, then what's the point of having him as her husband?
Thinking of this, the originally wavering mind instantly became firm.
"If you don't want to wear it, then don't wear it. You are my princess now. No one will dare to say anything even if you don't wear the veil."
Hearing him say this, the smile on Chen Yan's face grew even wider, and she even thanked him sincerely, which was rare.
"Thanks."
Jun Mochen felt at this moment that he had fulfilled Chen Yan's wish. He became a little taller and even his chest straightened unconsciously.
He looked at the bridesmaid who still looked troubled, "This is what I want, just do as I tell you."
Hearing this, the bridesmaids breathed a sigh of relief.
They are not very conservative or inflexible people, but they mainly consider whether there is anyone supporting them.
Now that the Second Prince is willing to come forward and say that this was his order, they naturally have no objection.
What does it have to do with them whether the Second Prince’s wife wears a veil or not?
"yes."
So, when Jun Mochen appeared with Chen Yan, almost everyone's eyes fell on Chen Yan, regardless of the fact that she was not wearing a veil.
These people had similar ideas to Jun Mochen. They usually saw the elegant and graceful Ms. Shen in the court, but now seeing her dressed like a newlywed, they really couldn't recognize her.
There were even old ministers with blurry eyes who kept asking the people around them, "Hey, am I seeing correctly? Is that Ms. Shen?"
"That's right, they are a perfect match."
Apart from these court officials, the emperor was now thinking about the child he had just conceived in Yu Shu's belly, and he didn't care about Chen Yan at all.
Perhaps the only person who is truly unhappy is the Queen.
However, she and Chen Yan are now in the same boat, so even if she is unhappy about something, she dare not show it openly.
If you hadn't seen the marks on her hands caused by her own fingernails, you would have thought she was very satisfied with Chen Yan as her daughter-in-law.
Sang Liwan probably guessed Chen Yan's purpose. She lowered her head, curled her lips, and said nothing.
All she had to do now was sit here quietly, and trouble would always find itself.
Sure enough, before long, she noticed someone's gaze falling on her.
When I looked over, I found that it was none other than Jun Mochen who was getting married with Chen Yan.
Jun Mochen didn't know what was wrong with him. It was clearly the time for couples to bow to each other, but his eyes unconsciously looked for the figure in the corner.
Because she was still in mourning, Sang Liwan only wore a light blue long dress without any festive embellishments on her body, but Jun Mochen could still spot her among the crowd at a glance.
Jun Mochen paused slightly, a dazed look on his face, all of which were seen by Chen Yan.
Even if she didn't look back, she knew what Jun Mochen saw.
A chill passed through Chen Yan's heart, and she secretly warned herself in her heart, wait, wait a little longer.
When Eunuch Li, who was singing a congratulatory speech, saw this scene, his heart couldn't help but skip a beat.
This was done so obviously in public. Does the Second Prince think Princess An's reputation isn't bad enough?
He frowned slightly, then turned around inadvertently, standing between Jun Mochen and Sang Liwan.
Jun Mochen finally woke up from his dream. He withdrew his gaze and looked at Shen Yan, just missing the flash of sarcasm in Shen Yan's eyes.
When it was time to toast, Chen Yan specifically called Jun Mochen.
"Let's go and toast to the Emperor's sister-in-law."
Jun Mochen was stunned, as if he didn't hear clearly, "What did you say?"
Chen Yan maintained a proper smile and said, "You only have one brother, Prince An. According to the rules, I, the new daughter-in-law, must go and pay my respects to the emperor and his wife."
I don't know why, but Jun Mochen always felt that the words "imperial sister-in-law" spoken by Chen Yan seemed extremely harsh.
But he stared at Chen Yan for a long time and did not see any irony on her face, as if she just wanted to offer a glass of wine to the emperor's sister-in-law.
Jun Mochen didn't think about it for long before nodding and agreeing.
After all, for him, the title is not important. As long as he can show his face in front of Sang Liwan and say a few words to her, he will be very satisfied.
What's more, in such an occasion, when I talk to Sang Liwan, she won't just remain silent like she does in private, right?
Thinking of this, Jun Mochen said, "Okay, whatever you say."
However, these words sounded ironic to Shen Yan.
Apart from the word hypocritical, she really couldn't find any better adjective to describe Jun Mochen.
The two of them didn't say anything else, but just walked to Sang Liwan together.
Chen Yan was the first to speak: "Sister-in-law, the Second Prince and I would like to toast you."
Sang Liwan had long expected them to come and had even been waiting for quite a while, and now he felt like they were finally here.
She stood up, looked at Chen Yan and smiled, "Second sister-in-law is still polite. The second prince rarely calls me sister-in-law when he sees me. Second sister-in-law should teach him a lesson in the future."
These words were a bit harsh, and the expressions on Jun Mochen and Chen Yan's faces changed, but they were quickly covered up.
Chen Yan even nodded, “The emperor’s sister-in-law taught me a lesson, but I’m not listening.”
She reached out and patted Jun Mochen coquettishly.
Jun Mochen looked at her stiffly, then nodded, "Yes."
But the word "Imperial Sister-in-law" was still not called out.
Chen Yan curled her lips and snorted coldly, then looked at Sang Liwan with the wine glass in her hand and said, "Let's toast to the Emperor's sister-in-law."
Sang Liwan's gaze stayed on the wine glass in Shen Yan's hand. He suddenly raised his eyebrows and picked up the teacup that he had casually placed aside.
