The three-day period passed quickly as scheduled. The couple wore crimson clothes together. They were both talented and beautiful, and looked a perfect match.
Tang Qingyue's health has not yet fully recovered, but as the mistress, she still has to come out to take charge of the situation for the sake of face.
So she could only limp out and wait for the ladies at the women's table.
When others asked her what was wrong, she didn't dare tell the truth, otherwise she would be beaten even more severely when the guests left at night.
Such a brutal beating could make a person lose the desire to live, which shows how cruel it is.
She had also thought about going back to her parents' home to complain and tell them about her suffering.
Maybe He Yi pretends to be too nice, or maybe since he is not a biological child, he doesn't care that much.
After returning home, her parents advised her to be patient, saying that Prince He was so handsome and gentle, and it might have been just a momentary impulse and it was definitely not intentional.
As a wife, she should be more tolerant. After all, he has no concubines and is a good husband in the eyes of ordinary people. They just think that their daughter is hysterical and has wild imaginations.
Tang Qingyue felt miserable, but no one could understand her. They all thought she was really sick. She was not satisfied with having such a good husband, and she was picky and looking for flaws in everything.
He Yi usually disguises herself too well and is too much of a gentleman, so no one will easily believe what she says.
She just thought she was spreading rumors maliciously because she didn't want her husband to get close to other women and was jealous.
No one took her words seriously, even her younger brother, who had always liked her the most, sided with He Yi.
The young boy puffed up his chest and said, "My brother-in-law is so kind. He even gave me his old notebooks and many precious calligraphy works. Sister, don't be ungrateful for the blessings you have. If I were a girl, I would also marry a man like my brother-in-law."
She could only fall into complete despair and fall deeply into the quagmire.
No one helped her, so she could only endure the pain silently until she fell into a deeper abyss.
So when others asked her about it, she just smiled and said nothing, lowering her head shyly.
Anyone with a discerning eye will know what is going on.
There is also an advantage to behaving this way, which is that when He Yi beats her at night, he will be gentler and will not kill her.
She would also give her some beautiful jewelry, although it was not as good as Tang Wan's.
But she has gotten used to it. It is better to have something than nothing.
If you have to choose between getting compensation after being beaten and getting nothing, you would naturally choose the former.
When she saw Tang Wan and her husband coming, her eyes suddenly lit up: "Oh, my dear sister, you are finally here. I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you a little bit."
Tang Wan calmly pulled her hand away, smiled slightly, and did not answer.
Anyone with a little bit of discernment would know that this meant he disliked her.
Tang Qingyue was not a fool, and naturally knew how much this nominal sister hated her, but she had a mission to accomplish.
If I fail to complete it, I will probably be beaten again tonight and won’t be able to go out for a month or two.
The pain of having limbs broken off and then reattached is so unbearable that it makes one's life worse than death.
Although she was not well received, Tang Qingyue still smiled without any sign of displeasure.
In the past, he would have turned his back on her.
Tang Wan knew that there might be some conspiracy behind this.
In her previous life, she died because of Tang Qingyue, so she naturally knew what she was really like. She was not as pure and harmless as she appeared to be.
She is a seemingly harmless but actually poisonous snake full of fangs. She will lie down at your feet obediently and rub your ankles from time to time.
But you never know if she will bite you back at some point and poison you to death.
Tang Wan felt that something was wrong, so she immediately sent someone to tell Mo Tingzhu.
The couple decided to fight against the enemy with their own weapons and block the water with earth.
The palace's shadow guards will also provide close protection at all times, hiding in places that are not easily discovered.
As expected, not long after the banquet began, Tang Qingyue kept toasting her attentively.
Tang Wan knew that although doing that thing would not have much impact on the child, drinking would.
If you drink too much and have a miscarriage, it is considered a good thing. In serious cases, the life of the pregnant woman may be in danger.
So, you should never touch alcohol.
Outside, Tang Wan didn't want to make things too awkward, so she smiled and refused, "I'm afraid that won't work, sister. I just took some tonic before I came here, and the doctor said I can't drink alcohol, otherwise it will damage my body."
After hearing this, Tang Qingyue had no choice but to give up and turned away.
Tang Wan thought she was finally going to give up her mischief, so she breathed a sigh of relief and continued to savor her favorite dishes.
At such a large banquet, she was not afraid at all that Tang Qingyuan would poison the food. All the guests were from prominent families. If he really dared to poison the food, she would probably lose the title of Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery.
However, Tang Qingyue was not so easy to give up. After a while, she brought another cup of tea to her and said, "Sister, this is the best pre-rain Longjing tea. I heard that you are not suitable for drinking alcohol, so you can use tea instead of wine. Let's have a drink together, okay?"
"Okay." Tang Wan took the teacup, covered her sleeves, and swallowed the antidote.
Whatever drug she had administered, this antidote could undo it.
After all, it can cure all kinds of poisons. Even if she accidentally ate something else today, it would not have any effect on her. Therefore, she was not worried at all that she would take action.
Because this was part of her plan. If she took action, those shadow guards would teach her a lesson.
Seeing her drink the tea, Tang Qingyue could hardly hide the excitement on her face. Her whole face turned red, but she still forced herself to suppress her excitement: "Sister, are you drinking this tea okay?"
"Sister, the things here are of course good, but I don't know if I'll have the chance to drink them next time."
Hearing her tone, Tang Qingyue thought she had discovered something. Her heart beat rapidly twice. She looked at her face carefully, as if trying to find some clues from it.
But there was no flaw in it, it seemed like he was just saying it casually.
She breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and nodded: "Of course, you can come anytime you want to drink in the future."
If you want to drink something from now on, of course you can only drink this lady's foot washing water. The Longjing tea before the rain is not something a lowly servant like you can enjoy.
"Really? Thank you so much, sister."
She played with her fingers, inadvertently revealing the emerald green ring on her finger. The color was extremely transparent and looked priceless.
Tang Qingyue was filled with envy and her belief became even stronger.
As long as she can nail this little bitch to the pillar of shame, all these good things will be hers.
When the time comes, let’s see how she can still show off in front of me.
