The Emperor was somewhat disappointed in him, but Prince Yi was, after all, his younger brother, so he could only try his best to make amends and comfort him.
As the wedding day drew near, Prince Yi and Prince De went to fetch the bride at the same time. When the veil was lifted, Prince Yi discovered that the bride he had brought back was not Fu Zige, the bride he had imagined, but Fu Ziwu.
Prince Yi was furious and ordered Fu Ziwu to be taken to Prince De's residence to exchange for Fu Zige, only to learn that Fu Zige and Prince De had already consummated their marriage.
This whole affair was orchestrated by Fu Zige. Unwilling to marry the crippled Prince Yi, she pushed her younger sister forward. However, being extremely concerned with her reputation, she shifted all the blame onto Fu Ziwu to save face.
Everyone assumed that Fu Ziwu was responsible for this, because she was jealous of Fu Zige and had stolen her marriage.
Lu Qingyan pursed her lips. Fu Ziwu wasn't blind; why would she be jealous because her sister married a disabled man? That reason was too far-fetched.
However, everyone involved believed Fu Zige's scheme, thinking it was Fu Ziwu's trick. Shangguan Li harbored hatred for Fu Ziwu and humiliated her in every way, but he couldn't forget Fu Zige. He even secretly cleared all obstacles for her, making her a smooth and successful Princess Consort of Deqin.
Human emotions are inherently complex. Shangguan Li hated Fu Ziwu for making him lose his beloved, but as he tormented her time and time again, he developed different feelings for her.
By this time, Shangguan Li's health had improved, and he believed he now had a chance to pursue Fu Zige again. He was still deceiving himself, hypnotizing himself into thinking that Fu Zige was the person he loved.
But the truth will never be buried. No matter how well Fu Zige does, she will always be discovered one day. It was because of Shangguan Li’s constant concern for her that he accidentally discovered her true colors.
So he took his anger out on Fu Ziwu, believing that she, as his younger sister, must be in the know, and started bullying her again, shattering the relationship the two had worked so hard to build.
Fu Zige quickly noticed Shangguan Li's strange behavior and led him to suspect Fu Ziwu's intentions. But this time, she wasn't so lucky. She caused Fu Ziwu to lose Shangguan Li's child, she caused Shangguan Li to take a new wife and become estranged from Fu Ziwu, and she caused Prince De, Shangguan Ren, to lose his life... This time, no one could help her.
Shangguan Li saw through her and gave her a quick death. From then on, there was no one named Fu Zige in this world.
He spent another four or five years clearing up the misunderstanding with Fu Ziwu, dismissing all his concubines and doting on her alone.
In the end, Fu Ziwu and Shangguan Li had twins, a boy and a girl, and lived happily ever after.
Lu Qingyan: "..."
Lu Qingyan clicked her tongue in admiration: "[They can be together like this, it must be true love! So what did you send me here for?]"
Getting back together with Shangguan Li was the female lead's own choice. If this is what she considers happiness, then what is there to be dissatisfied about when she has already achieved it? If she is satisfied, why is she now being told not to marry Shangguan Li?
Lu Qingyan was completely confused.
"No, I'm not reconciled!" A wisp of black mist swayed on the sedan chair, finally transforming into a woman in a fiery red wedding dress who appeared before Lu Qingyan. She smiled wistfully, "Being with that person, I've never been reconciled."
Lu Qingyan listened quietly to what she had to say.
“My sister Fu Zige and I are full sisters, and we were very close until today.”
