In front of the hall, surrounded by guests, Shangguan Ruoning, dressed in a fiery red wedding dress, stood there quietly, waiting for King Zhan to come out and marry her.
Under the veil, Shangguan Ruoning's fair face was full of smiles, and there was a hint of complacency in that smile.
However, when the noise outside the mansion was heard, the smile on Shangguan Ruoning's face disappeared instantly. She couldn't help but tighten the handkerchief in her hand, and a hint of cruelty flashed across her eyes.
Su Liyue!
Why isn't she dead yet!
…
At this time, in the study room of Li Garden, the main courtyard of Prince Zhan’s Mansion.
A man dressed in a black python robe and wearing a pure black mask that only revealed his eyes, chin and mouth stood upright in front of the window, with an imposing aura.
This person is none other than the War King Ye Cangming.
Everyone knows that the War King Ye Cangming has been wearing a mask since he was disfigured at the age of six, and it has been seventeen years now.
However, at this moment, Ye Cangming not only did not show any signs of a "relapse of old illness", but also did not have the slightest bit of the joy that a groom should have.
On the contrary, at this moment Ye Cangming exuded a bone-chilling aura, and it was obvious that he was in a very bad mood.
At this moment, he was holding a piece of blood writing that had long dried up in his hand, on which were clearly written the names of some medicinal herbs.
Without this prescription, the 'relapse of old illness' three days ago might come true, and there is a high possibility that he would die.
Can--
Three days!
Three whole days passed, but he couldn't find any news of her, as if she had never come back at all, or had come back but disappeared just like five years ago.
Thinking of the past five years, Ye Cangming's eyes turned red, with a mixture of love and hate in his eyes.
"Damn woman!" Ye Cangming gritted his teeth, his voice filled with utmost patience, like a trapped beast.
Ye Cangming's aura became even colder as he was enraged. His hands tightened slightly. If he had used a little more strength, the blood letter in his hand would have been turned into powder.
But in the end, Ye Cangming relaxed his strength.
Without this blood letter, the only evidence that she had returned and was still alive in this world would be gone.
When he thought of this, Ye Cangming's eyes were filled with bloodshot, and he was angry and hateful.
“Damn it!”
Ye Cangming punched the small table beside him, and the table shattered instantly, leaving a mess on the ground.
Just at this moment, there was a knock on the study door.
"Come in!" Ye Cangming's voice was cold, without a trace of warmth, and his movement of stuffing the blood letter into his arms was quick and cautious.
The person who came in was Linchuan, one of Ye Cangming's personal guards.
As soon as Linchuan came in, he felt the oppressive atmosphere in the study. His eyes fell on the mess on the floor. He suddenly felt his scalp tingling and felt a huge pressure.
After swallowing and calming down, Linchuan looked at his master who was dressed in black as usual. He was a little dazed and couldn't help sighing.
Everyone thought that Miss Shangguan was the master's sweetheart, and today she finally got what she wanted, but who could know the pain in the master's heart?
"What's the matter?" Seeing Linchuan didn't move and had a compassionate look on his face, Ye Cangming's voice became colder, and the coldness on his body emanated like crazy, and his cold eyes revealed a murderous aura.
Lin Chuan shuddered, then immediately came to his senses. He straightened his body and reported loudly: "Master, the auspicious time is almost over..."
Before he could finish his words, Linchuan almost bit his tongue and his body couldn't help but tremble.
That's just - that's not what he wanted to say - why did he just babble?
If the master cared about this auspicious time, why would he publicly "relapse of old illness" three days ago?
It was nothing more than to escape the Queen Mother's arranged marriage...
As expected, the next moment Linchuan felt a cold gaze falling on him, his back felt numb and cold sweat broke out.
"roll--"
Ye Cangming spat out a word coldly.
Linchuan: "...I will get out of here now——"
As he said this, he backed away and tried to leave.
But his face was full of confusion.
When he was about to close the study door, Lin Chuan couldn't help but say, "Master, I have something else to report..."
…
The lobby of Prince Zhan's mansion.
Ever since Su Liyue was invited in, the atmosphere in the hall has been strange and quiet.
However, Su Liyue, who was the center of attention at this moment and dressed in cassock, was not affected at all. She sat calmly in the seat that belonged to the princess right in front. Her posture was calm and elegant, and she inexplicably exuded a sense of neatness and elegance.
Su Liyue like this really makes people want to take a few more glances.
After all, everyone knew that Princess Zhan grew up in the countryside. Although she had a stunning appearance, she was vulgar and unworthy of being in a refined place. Moreover, on her wedding night five years ago, she did two things that were outrageous to both humans and gods.
But what I see now is seriously inconsistent with the rumors...
When everyone was looking at Su Liyue in confusion, there was a noise at the door - the War King had arrived.
Su Liyue subconsciously looked up, and her eyes fell on the tall and majestic figure at the door.
The War King was wearing a black python robe, a black mask, and a black jade hairband... In short, he was dressed in black. Although he had the air of a king, he was out of tune with the red in the room.
And that dark, deep and bone-chilling gaze made Su Liyue's heart tighten.
When their eyes met, Su Liyue felt a tingling sensation on her scalp, and inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity.
However, before Su Liyue could remember where that familiar feeling came from, she saw a hint of disgust in Ye Cangming's cold eyes.
Su Liyue: “…”
The scene when the original owner first met Ye Cangming on their wedding night five years ago suddenly came to mind.
