Chapter 134: Perfect Defense
After hearing Shu Wan's words, the faces of Yuwen Yan and his sister turned dark, especially Yuwen Zhu, who couldn't help but attack Shu Wan.
"Shu Wan, if you have the guts, tell me again!" Yu Wenyan's nose was about to spit fire, "Believe it or not, I will kill you!"
"No matter how many times you say it, it won't change the fact!" Shu Wan laughed, "Also, don't call me by my name all the time. Do you, the Yuwen family, have any manners left? Don't you have any sense of propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame? When you see me in the future, remember to respectfully call me second sister-in-law, do you hear me?" She cursed the Yuwen family again, and then really went back to the house, regardless of Yuwen Zhu who was still shouting at the door.
"I have to have a good talk with her today..." Yu Wenzhu rolled up his sleeves and was about to chase in.
"That's enough!" Yu Wenyan frowned and stopped her, "That's enough, let's go back!"
"No, I came here today because I really have something to tell her..." After hearing this, Yu Wenzhu had to turn around and walk back reluctantly, but after walking a few steps, she suddenly realized that she had not done her business yet, so she had to turn back, "This Shu Wan gets angry as soon as she sees her, and I almost missed something important!" When she thought of Shu Wan, she couldn't help but talk to herself in anger.
"What do you want to talk to her about?" Yu Wenyan didn't want her to go in.
"Oh, don't worry, second brother, I won't do anything to her!" Yu Wenzhu quickly advised him, "I really just have a few words, someone asked me to tell her in person!"
"Who?" The first person Yu Wenyan thought of was Rong Chen. He felt that Rong Chen might be plotting something.
"Definitely not the National Master!" Yuwen Zhu knew what he was thinking. "Second brother, you have to believe me on this. It is true that I don't like Shu Wan, but in this world, no one wants her to marry you more than I do. This way, no one will compete with me for the position of National Master." Her words finally won Yuwen Yan's approval, so he let her in.
"Don't say anything extreme, just get down to business and come out!" After thinking for a moment, he reminded again.
"I got it, second brother!" Yu Wenzhu thought he was troublesome and walked in without looking back.
Yuwen Yan did not leave, but stood at the door. With his hearing, he could clearly hear what the two people inside were saying.
"Shu Wan, your eldest brother... Oh no, it's the eldest prince of Beishuo. He asked me to ask you something. In the eyes of the world, you are still his sister in name. So, he asked me to ask you, is it not good for you to stay in my second brother's house like this? Do you need him to pick you up and then let my second brother go to pick you up tomorrow?" Yuwen Zhu's voice was loud and Yuwen Yan heard it clearly.
"No need!" Shu Wan's voice just rang out as she finished speaking, "This marriage is not appropriate to begin with. There is no need for that. Go back and tell him not to send Fu Shuyin's dowry over tomorrow. I don't need it. Ask him to exchange those things for silver and give it to the victims or use it for other purposes. Anyway, don't let me see any so-called dowry. Don't make it seem like that!" Shu Wan's voice was full of sarcasm. Even Yuwen Yan, who was standing outside, could feel it clearly.
"A woman like you, I really don't know what my second brother likes about you!" Yu Wenzhu snorted coldly and turned away.
"I am also very curious about the answer to this question. If you can help me find the answer, I will definitely thank you very much!" Shu Wan curled the corners of his mouth.
Yu Wenzhu didn't answer, but just walked out angrily.
After Yuwen Zhu left, Yuwen Yan thought about going in to find Shu Wan, but he paused and did not go in, and turned and left.
At this point, he really no longer had the desire to admire what Shu Wan looked like in her wedding dress.
Whatever, the wedding is tomorrow anyway, so he won't provoke her at this time! ...
The next day, before daybreak, the servants knocked on the door and filed in, ready to pull Shu Wan out of bed and dress her up.
"Get out!" Shu Wan yelled impatiently. She didn't like being disturbed when she was sleeping.
"Princess..." The leading nanny opened her mouth awkwardly and wanted to say something.
"Don't make me say it a second time!" Shu Wan closed her eyes, turned over and faced away from everyone, "I haven't slept enough. You guys either wait there quietly, or, if I don't sleep well today and don't want to wear the wedding dress, you can wear it and get married!" After she said that, she pulled the quilt to cover her head and said nothing.
The servants looked at each other, and really didn't dare to say anything. They knew Shu Wan's temper. If they really pissed her off, she would get angry and refuse to wear her wedding dress or put on makeup. How would they explain it to her? So they had no choice but to retreat to the outer room to wait, not daring to make a sound.
Shu Wan slept comfortably again. He had a tough battle to fight today, so he had to get enough sleep.
It was already daybreak. Normally, the bride should have finished putting on her makeup by this time, but when it came to Shu Wan, she was still soundly sleeping...
"What should we do? The princess can't get up yet!" The maids outside were extremely anxious. "If it's any later, we'll really miss the auspicious time. Should we go in and call her?"
"But she just said that we are not allowed to disturb her. If we rashly go up to her and make her unhappy, I'm afraid the situation will get worse!" Someone answered immediately.
"Do we have to wait for her to wake up on her own? Then I'm afraid the auspicious time has passed. What should we do?" the man who spoke just now said anxiously.
"How about we go and ask the prince for instructions?" The person who spoke was really scared. They couldn't afford to offend Shu Wan, but they also dared not neglect Yuwen Yan. Otherwise, if something went wrong and Yuwen Yan blamed them, they would not be able to chop off their heads even if they had a hundred.
"I think this method is feasible!" Someone agreed with her and felt that it would be safest to ask Yuwen Yan for advice. Let Yuwen Yan talk to Shu Wan and it would definitely make sense.
"Okay, then go and report to the prince and ask him what to do!"
"It's so noisy!" Shu Wan sat up from the bed and frowned fiercely. They were talking so loudly, were they afraid that she couldn't hear them? "Will you let me sleep well?"
"Princess!" Hearing that she woke up, the servants rushed in as if they were grabbing a life-saving straw, "Princess is finally awake, let us help you to dress up, if it's any later, we will miss the auspicious time..." The leading nanny had an embarrassment on her face, as if she was constipated.
"What time is it!" Shu Wan estimated that it was probably around ten o'clock in the morning. How could she miss the auspicious time? "Go get dressed!" These people were so noisy that she couldn't fall asleep, so she simply got out of bed.
"Yes, your servants obey your command!" The servants were overjoyed as if they had been pardoned. They hurriedly carried Shu Wan to the diamond-shaped bronze mirror and began to comb her hair and wipe her face.
Shu Wan's frown never relaxed. She had no idea what these people were rubbing on her face, but it was very pungent.
Shu Wan let these people torment his face with an unhappy look on his face, and he felt drowsy.
"Princess, Princess!" She was about to fall asleep when she was suddenly awakened by someone.
"Hmm!" Her voice was unconsciously a little lazy, "What's the matter?" She sat up straight.
"My princess, I have finished my makeup. Please take a look and see if it is okay. If you are not satisfied with anything, I will reapply it for you!"
"That's all right. Let's just leave it at that!" Shu Wan casually glanced at herself in the mirror. She didn't have high demands for these.
"Yes, Princess, let us help you change into your wedding dress!" The servants hurried to strike while the iron was hot! "Hmm!" Shu Wan paused for a long while before making an imperceptible hum.
As if they were afraid that she would suddenly change her mind, the servants were eager to put the complicated wedding dress with layers of layers on her immediately.
After struggling for a long time, she finally put on the bright red wedding dress, and then the servants quickly put the phoenix crown on her.
At this point, their mission is considered completed.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, as their heads were saved.
Now, all we have to do is wait for someone from the front hall to call us, and then we can drag Shu Wan over to get married.
At this moment, Shu Wan felt his stomach growling.
Yes, she had forgotten about it. It was already noon and she hadn't had a drop of water yet!
When she went out this time, she fainted from hunger before she could do anything.
"I'm hungry!" Shu Wan said to the servants, "Go get me some food!"
"But Princess, the auspicious time is almost here..." The leading servant was extremely embarrassed. At this moment, he was afraid that someone had already arrived from the front hall, and Shu Wan wanted to eat at this time. What should he do?
"So you're saying that because of this marriage, I can't even eat?" Shu Wan was so angry that she almost laughed. "Then let's not get married. I've never heard of anyone not being able to eat at a wedding. I'll go to the kitchen and find something to eat!" She said and was about to leave.
"No, no, no, how can the princess go in person!" The nanny quickly grabbed her and ordered the other people in the room, "Why don't you go to the kitchen and bring some cakes to the princess?" She was afraid that Shu Wan would grow wings and fly away as soon as she walked out of the door.
"Yes!" Before she finished her words, someone quickly took the order and ran out.
"No pastries, I want staple food!" Shu Wan shouted at the back in dissatisfaction.
"Staple food, staple food, bring more up quickly!" Nanny agreed quickly. Now she just wanted to serve Shu Wan well, and then send Shu Wan to the wedding hall without any mistakes, then her mission would be successfully completed. So now, in order for Shu Wan to go to the wedding hall smoothly, let alone wanting to eat, even if Shu Wan wanted to eat delicacies from land and sea, they had to be found for her!
Not long after, a table full of food was brought to Shu Wan. Shu Wan didn't hesitate and sat down and started eating.
At the same time, on Yu Wenyan's side, Qi Xiu, whom he sent to invite Shu Wan over, came back alone.
"What's going on?" he asked, thinking, could it be that Shu Wan was making trouble again? "My Lord, I went to the courtyard and the maid sent someone to wait there!" Qi Xiu answered respectfully, "She said that Your Majesty should wait a little longer. The princess..." Qi Xiu was a little speechless. He had never seen a bride who was about to get married, but was still stuffing food into her mouth. She looked as if she had been hungry for three days and three nights.
"How is she?" Yu Wenyan thought that Shu Wan must be throwing a tantrum and not wanting to wear her wedding dress again. "I'll go and take a look!" It seemed that if he didn't go and urge her personally, she wouldn't be able to wear the dress properly today.
Yu Wenyan, wearing a bright red wedding dress, walked towards Shu Wan's yard with an uneasy look on his face. The auspicious time had arrived, and the guests were still waiting in the hall. What was she still making a fuss about? He had thought of countless ways to get Shu Wan to put on her wedding dress obediently, but he didn't expect that after he stepped into the house, he would see Shu Wan eating like a whirlwind. She was wearing a wedding dress and a phoenix crown. No one would associate her with the image of a starving ghost eating like this, but on her, there was no trace of disobedience!
Therefore, Yuwen Yan, who had never imagined this scene, was stunned! He knew Shu Wan was beautiful, but she was even more beautiful in her wedding dress. The way she sat at the table eating casually was so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off her! "Greetings, Your Majesty!" The servants saw Yuwen Yan first, so they all saluted.
Shu Wan, who was concentrating on eating, put down his chopsticks and looked up after hearing this, also looking at Yu Wenyan in a daze.
What was he doing here at this time? "Princess, are you full?" Yu Wenyan's anger was extinguished in an instant, and was replaced by an indescribable joy.
From now on, this woman will be his wife and will live with him for the rest of her life!
"Yeah, almost!" Shu Wan nodded and answered truthfully, "Why, Your Majesty wants to eat something too?" She glanced at the leftovers on the table and asked with interest.
"I won't eat anymore!" Yu Wenyan's tone was full of smiles, "Princess, since you are full, let's go!"
"Okay, let's go!" Shu Wan also stood up quickly and walked towards the door.
Today's lip balm is pretty good. She doesn't need to reapply lip balm after eating.
"I didn't expect that the princess would be so cute when she was eating!" Yu Wenyan wanted to find a topic to chat with her, so he took the initiative to mention how Shu Wan was eating just now.
"If Prince Li doesn't know how to compliment others, then don't say anything!" Shu Wan frowned slightly, "Or if Prince Li really wants to compliment me, why not just compliment me on my beauty? That way I'll appreciate it more!"
"Okay!" Yuwen Yan smiled, "From now on, I will praise your beauty every day!"
"Really?" Shu Wan sneered and asked, "Let's talk about it after today, if King Li still has this opportunity!"
Yu Wenyan didn't respond, he knew what Shu Wan meant.
But how could he not be fully prepared? No matter who it is today, no one can stop him from marrying Shu Wan!
