Seeing the Prime Minister move, Lou Mengyun was worried that the Prime Minister would wake up and give her a hard time. She was frightened and stood there, not daring to move rashly. She only dared to sneak onto the bed after the person on the bed fell asleep.
Now the Prime Minister was sleeping alone on the bed, drunk and sound asleep. Lou Mengyun did not expect to really be able to perform the Zhougong ceremony with Yin Yichen. She had already prepared a backup plan.
She pulled out a pair of scissors from her sleeve and stabbed her thigh, causing some blood to flow onto the bed. Seeing this, she dared to secretly hide the scissors under the bed.
Seeing that Yin Yichen was still sleeping soundly, Lou Mengyun finally breathed a sigh of relief after doing all this.
Although this matter was not very respectable, she changed her mind and thought that if she could marry the Prime Minister because of this matter, even if she was a concubine, it would be much more respectable than being someone else's wife. Besides, the Prime Minister was a man of heaven and earth, and he was indeed the best husband.
With this thought in mind, Lou Mengyun stripped herself naked and lay down beside Yin Yichen, slowly closing her eyes.
The Prime Minister's Mansion is not peaceful now, but the Mansion of Marquis Zhongping is extremely lively.
On Wen Tingbai's wedding day, he was able to show some toughness for once. He felt that he had gained some face among the nobles and colleagues in the capital, and even held his head higher than usual.
He drank cup after cup of wine handed to him by these nobles.
Song Wanshi was waiting for Wen Tingbai to spend her wedding night with her in the Lan Courtyard of Wen Tingbai's house in the Marquis Zhongping's mansion.
The courtyard was bustling with activity. Besides Wen Tingbai's former lover, Cui Xiaoxiao, there were also two other concubines. Song Wanshi was brought in with a shaky heart, waiting for Wen Tingbai to return from drinking. How could she expect Wen Tingbai to actually spend his wedding night with her now? Everything was just a formality.
Now that the matter was settled, Song Wanshi still felt a little unwilling. Looking at the courtyard where Song Wanning once lived, which now became hers, Song Wanshi felt very unfair. She could only live as a widow for the rest of her life.
As she was thinking this, Song Wanshi felt her face itch. She raised her hand and scratched it again and again. It took a long time for her to feel better. Song Wanshi felt hot all over and dozed off at the head of the bed. Not long after, Wen Tingbo came in from outside the yard, looking drunk.
Wen Tingbai was very proud of marrying Song Wanshi. Seeing her rosy face, he said, "Wanshi... from now on, you will be my wife, Wen Tingbai, and the Second Wife of the Marquis of Zhongping's Mansion. I will rely on you to take care of everything in this courtyard. I also hope that Shi'er will put aside the grudge and live a good life with me in the future."
Although Song Wanshi felt disgusted in her heart, she still clenched her fists and endured it silently.
Seeing Song Wanshi remained silent, Wen Tingbai grew even more elated, feeling that Song Wanshi was the wife sent to him by the General's Mansion. If he hadn't taken control of Song Wanshi's bellyband, this marriage might not have happened to him.
Wen Tingbai thought about this, a smile on his face. He remembered that he had met Song Wanshi. Although she was a far cry from Song Wanning, she was still acceptable. With her status, he could bring her along to any important banquets in the future.
With this in mind, Wen Tingbai took a pole beside him and lifted up Song Wanshi's red veil.
Who would have thought that the moment Wen Tingbai saw Song Wanshi's face, he froze in place and asked coldly, "Who are you? How dare you pretend to be the second daughter of the general's mansion and marry here?"
Song Wanshi's drug effects were now more severe, and her face looked very strange. The bridal makeup on her face was even more terrifying. Wen Tingbai's drunkenness was scared away.
Song Wanshi felt strange after hearing this and cleared her throat. "Second Master, I'm afraid you've forgotten what I look like. I'm the second daughter of the General's Mansion. Second Master Bai specifically requested me to come here. Could it be that Second Master is drunk?"
"I don't believe it, I don't believe it. The General's Mansion must not want their daughter to marry here, so they found such an ugly woman to fool me." Wen Tingbai threw the pole aside and strode out. "I'm going to the General's Mansion now. I want to get an explanation."
Seeing this, Song Wanshi couldn't stand such humiliation. She chased after Wen Tingbai and yelled at him, "Wen Tingbai, who the hell do you think you are? How dare you look down on me? I'm the second daughter of the general's mansion, and I married a man like you who is so inhumane, and yet you find fault with me?"
Wen Tingbai had already run out the door, but his concubine Guan E came up to greet him in a pretentious manner.
Since she was a concubine, she would have to live under the mistress's control. Guan E wanted to comfort Song Wanshi so that she would be nicer to her in the future.
"Second Madam Bai, don't be angry. Second Master Bai must have something urgent to deal with, so he ran out. Second Madam, please take a rest first. When Second Master has finished dealing with it, he will come back naturally..." Guan E, who was walking upstairs, was shocked when she saw Song Wanshi's face.
She didn't expect that the second girl in the general's mansion was so ugly. It was really disgusting. Guan E swallowed twice, turned around and ran out.
Seeing the strange reactions of the two people, Song Wanshi touched her face in shock.
She turned and went back into the house, picked up a bronze mirror beside her and looked at herself. But when she saw her own face in the mirror, she threw the mirror away in shock, "My face, how did my face become like this..."
Song Wanshi squatted on the ground, holding her face with both hands, trembling as she thought about how she had become like this.
"Why...why..." Song Wanshi thought so, and instantly thought of the jealous beauty. She watched Song Wanning drink the poison with her own eyes, but why was she the one who was disfigured now?
Song Wanshi really couldn't figure it out. She knelt in the corner, holding her face in her hands, and was dazed. "What should I do... What should I do now..."
At this moment, there was movement again in Fuyun Courtyard.
The old lady of the Marquis of Zhongping's mansion and Wen Tingbai's mother, Madam Wang, appeared outside. The old lady's voice was very harsh, "They say the bride is not pretty, but is there anyone in the world prettier than Song Wanning? You didn't cherish her when you married her, and now you even think of going to the general's mansion to make trouble? He should have settled down after marrying this second girl."
Mrs. Wang, who was standing next to the old lady, kept trying to make amends for Wen Tingbo, saying in a low voice, "Mother-in-law is right. I'll scold Tingbo and make him behave himself in a moment. He really can't be picky in his current situation."
"I want to see how much he dislikes me." The old lady said, pushing open the bedroom door with one hand.
