Chapter 2 Rebirth

The wedding dress was bright red, with a pair of ugly mandarin ducks embroidered on it with gold thread.

Suddenly, a tear of blood fell from the ugly mandarin duck's eyes, and the eyes instantly turned camellia red.

"Your Highness, be careful!" Seeing that the embroidery needle was about to pierce the flesh again, the maid Haitang had to speak out to remind him.

Suddenly, the spring breeze blew on my face, condensing the fragrance of camellia with a faint smell of blood.

"Haitang, you are still alive..." The girl picked up the embroidery needle, her eyes full of confusion.

"Your Highness, don't scare me. Am I possessed?" Haitang exclaimed.

After hearing this, the girl came to her senses, looked down at the bright red wedding dress, and a sad smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

She, Princess Ronghua Zhu Huaizhen, was reborn, but she was reborn three days ago.

Yes, she spent three days embroidering this bright red wedding dress, hoping that she and Chen Mingan would have a perfect wedding.

Looking at it now, it is really glaring and ridiculous.

She took up her silver scissors and cut the Gordian knot into rags.

Haitang was screaming and crying, full of heartache.

Everyone knows that Chen Ming'an loves Princess Ronghua terribly.

Princess Ronghua also loves Chen Mingan deeply.

Chen Ming'an just casually said that he liked the crab roe soup dumplings sold at the entrance of Xuanmiao Temple. Princess Ronghua would get up early every day, rain or shine, and deliver the steaming hot crab roe soup dumplings to Chen Ming'an when he got out of the morning court, and then go back to take a nap.

Chen Ming'an had only caught a minor cold, but Princess Ronghua was more worried than anyone else. She not only summoned the imperial physician but also studied medicine with him herself. Her bright eyes, now bloodshot from the intense heat of the day, looked like rotten grapes.

Chen Ming'an simply complained that he wasn't good at socializing. Princess Ronghua then spent all her family wealth to manage his relationships with superiors and subordinates, without letting the emperor know. As a result, the princess's vast mansion only had two maids: Tu Mi and Hai Tang. The rest couldn't be supported and were dismissed.

"Silly boy, I'm wasting my time here. I shouldn't be cutting wedding dresses. I should go and tell Aye that Nanchu betrayed Nanwu, allied with Nanyan, and invaded Nanwu." Zhu Huaizhen muttered to himself.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Huaizhen was hit on the head and fainted.

After an incense stick of time, Zhu Huaizhen found himself with his hands and feet tied, his mouth covered, and placed in a narrow wardrobe with a small gap.

Through the gap, Zhu Huaizhen saw that Chen Mingan was repairing the broken string of Zhao Lianer's zither.

"Brother Ming'an, I remember that cousin Ronghua had an ancient zither called Luqi. One of its strings was broken, and she looked for craftsmen everywhere to help repair it, but unfortunately, nothing happened. Why don't you help her try?" Zhao Lian'er held up her rosy cheeks, her eyes moving and her dimples smiling.

"She doesn't deserve it." Chen Mingan said coldly.

After he finished speaking, Zhu Huaizhen burst into tears.

Although the memories of her past life came flooding back, and she and Chen Ming'an were separated by national hatred and family feuds, making it impossible for them to be together again, five years of habits could not be changed easily. She still habitually loved Chen Ming'an, and was deeply hurt by his cold-bloodedness and ruthlessness.

"Brother Ming'an, in three days, you have to open the city gate to welcome the Southern Yan army. At that time, there will be chaos and confusion. Can you give me a guard so that I can hide?" Zhao Lian'er said cautiously.

"Lian'er, don't move Zhenzhen." Chen Ming'an said in a deep voice, and finally took out the token.

After Chen Ming'an left, Zhao Lian'er opened the cabinet door, used the token directly, and ordered the guards to drag Zhu Huaizhen out.

"Zhu Huaizhen, I originally wanted to leave this surprise for three days later, but I'm in a bad mood now and I just want to see you suffer a fate worse than death." Zhao Lian'er clasped her arms, her bright eyes flashing with a more sinister look than in her previous life.

"Zhao Lian'er, you haven't been reborn too, have you?" Zhu Huaizhen blurted out.
