Time seemed to pass quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was the day of the wedding. Shangguan Qian still looked neither happy nor sad, it was as if she was not the one who had married, his gaze was indifferent as he looked at the red wedding dress Shen Ruoqi sent him.

The embroidery work was really good. It was extremely meticulous. She gently slid her hand across the bridal dress and felt a stabbing pain.

She calmly flipped her hand to take a look. Her middle finger had been pierced. The pain from earlier must have been caused by the needle. Thinking of this, the smile on her face deepened.

He had thought that Shen Ruoqi had learned to be obedient, but she had put her mind into her wedding dress. Was she sure that once she left the palace, she, Shangguan Qian, would be at the mercy of the Shen mother and daughter?

"Ruoqi, the embroidery of the wedding dress is very detailed. It looks like you've put in a lot of effort."

"Ruoqi is my younger sister, this is all I can do. I hope elder sister Qian likes it." Shen Ruoqi lowered her eyebrows and whispered in her ear, but she didn't forget to build a relationship with her.

What a deep sisterly love. What a pity, no matter how she felt disgusted, she pretended to be.

"No way, I did it according to elder sister Qian's size." Shen Ruoqi's expression changed and she anxiously tried to defend herself. She didn't want any trouble to arise at this critical juncture, it wasn't easy to get the wedding dress embroidered, if she found a fault and asked Shen Ruoqi to do it, she wouldn't be able to do it.

"This size seems to be yours. Try it on."

Shen Ruqi's expression froze, and she hurriedly refused, "No way, last time Ruoxi was too mischievous and got into big trouble, this time she won't wear anything."

"What's there to be afraid of? I just want you to try it on for me." Shangguan Qian Bei smiled as he draped the wedding dress over her, saying without a doubt: "Put it on!"

Shen Ruqi sucked in a breath of cold air, her hands trembling slightly, yet she did not dare disobey Shangguan Qian, and the thought of how she had hidden a needle under the bridal veil made her feel guilty.

Originally, if Shangguan Qian had discovered it, she would have used forgetting as a pretext. However, she had never thought that Shangguan Qian would actually ask his to try on a bridal dress.

Shen Ruqi carefully put on her bridal dress, and forced out a smile, "Sister Qian, what do you think?"

Looking at Shen Ruqi's stiff and stiff body, he didn't dare to move. There was a mocking smile on her face. This was what you called getting what you deserved.

"Seems quite appropriate." She pretended not to care, and lightly patted the place where her finger was previously pierced, and felt a hard object under her hand, and with a slap, it was obviously Shen Ruqi.

Shen Ruoqi let out a muffled groan. Tears could be seen in her beautiful eyes, but she forced herself not to spill them.

Shangguan Qian'er touched the bridal veil carefully, she could tell that there was more than one needle inside. Indeed, he had touched another one at the waist.

"The waist area is clearly thinner." Shangguan Qian once again pressed his hand down, Shen Ruoqi screamed, and tears immediately flowed from his eyes.

Shangguan Qian pretended to be surprised and looked at her, "What happened to you? What are you crying for? "

"No …" "It's fine." Shen Ruoqi quickly dried her eyes and endured the pain.

She smiled mockingly, if Shen Ruoqi didn't keep thinking about it herself, how could she have been injured by her own needles? She would kill himself if he acted unjustly.

Smiling lightly, she felt another needle from the other side of her waist and fiercely pressed it down. Shen Ruqi immediately dodged in pain and looked at her in terror.

"Ruqi, what's wrong with you? Could it be that there's something hidden inside the wedding dress? "

Although it seemed like a casual inquiry, Shen Ruoqi was so scared that she broke out in sweat, and quickly wiped away her tears, "No, I just thought that elder sister Qian is going to be married off, and I felt reluctant to part with her. "Afraid."

"What's there to be reluctant about? Shen mama is following me to the Great Yan Mountain. Naturally, she won't abandon you." She smiled and pressed the needle again.

Shen Ruoqi's body … Her body trembled, and her delicate face turned pale from the pain.

"When I find a good house in Great Yan, I'll grant you my wish. I can't possibly stay by my side and serve you forever, right?" Shangguan Qian Bei smiled as he lifted the teacup and took a sip.

Shen Ruqi's expression changed, and she hurriedly shook her head, "Ruqi is willing to stay by elder sister Qian's side for her entire life."

Willing to stay by her side? He was probably willing to stay by Li Fengyi's side? With a mocking smile, he said indifferently, "I can't wear this wedding dress, so I'll give it to you. Embroidered by yourself, there's always some meaning to it."

Shen Ruqi furrowed her brow, her expression a little stiff. She had worked so hard to weave the clothes for an entire month, yet Shangguan Qian had actually said no?

She clenched her fists tightly. The humiliation and pain she had suffered today, she would pay them back double in the future!

"Alright, you can go and prepare. We'll set off tomorrow."

Shen Ruqi was in so much pain that she couldn't speak, and she couldn't even bend her waist. She stiffly took off her wedding dress and hugged it before retreating.

"It's a good thing that we prepared the wedding dress in advance, otherwise we would have been delayed by Shen Ruoqi!" Hong Ying snorted coldly, her tone filled with dissatisfaction towards Shen Ruoqi.

On the other side, Cui Zhu seemed to have noticed something as she softly said, "What is inside the bridal robe?"

Shangguan Qian'er lifted his head, glancing deeply at Cui Zhu. She had always been intelligent, how could she not have noticed what had happened just now? She opened his hand and showed her where the needle had been.

Cui Zhu had a look of understanding, but she did not say it out loud.

What a clever little girl, Shangguan Qian really liked her more and more.

The whole palace was filled with excitement. Everyone was busy with their work, Shen Ruoqi was there as well. She walked back to her residence stiffly. Her body was covered in cold sweat.

"Why do you look so ugly?" Shen mama asked, a little worried.

Shen Ruoqi was in so much pain that she couldn't speak. She could only cry, making Shen mama cry until she froze for a moment, before asking, "Didn't you deliver the bridal dress to the princess? Why did you bring it back? "

"Needle …"

She … He stiffly lifted up his clothes. Half of his needles were stuck into his waist. Even Senior Servant Shen, who was standing at the side, sucked in a breath of cold air.

"How did you do it?"

"Shangguan Qian …" Shen Ruqi cried in pain as he held tightly onto Senior Servant Shen's hand, "Mother, quickly help me remove the needle. It's so painful that it's killing me."

"Damn you, Shangguan Qian!" This is going too far! " Shen mama's expression was unsightly to the extreme. He carefully pinched the needle and used all his strength to pull it out. Blood gushed out from the place where the needle had pierced his, causing Shen Ruqi to cry even louder.

Shen mama pulled out the remaining two needles in one go, wiped them clean with a handkerchief, and said, "Ruoxi, this mother will definitely help you get your revenge!"

Shen Ruqi cried loudly, forcefully holding Shen mama's hand and heavily nodding her head.

On the other side, Shangguan Qian was curled up on the soft couch, reading a book. He was going to be married tomorrow, and there was no tension at all, not even a hint of happiness.

Cui Zhu and the others were constantly busy, repeatedly confirming the matters of the next day, only finishing in the evening.

"Princess, we're getting married tomorrow, why don't you feel a little nervous?" Hong Ying answered straightforwardly, "Don't you want to see Young Master?"

Shangguan Qian's face froze, a cold light flashed in his eyes as he said: "I did, how could I not?"

Every night, she would wake up from her sleep with Li Fengyi in her dreams. She hated him to the bones, and she really wanted to appear in front of him and stab him a few times.

Cui Zhu could see that her expression was not good. She tugged on her red tassel clothes, "Girl, you still have a lot of work to do. Hurry and come out."

The red tassel followed her out, feeling very surprised. She didn't know why, but the princess had clearly said that she wanted Young Master, but there wasn't the slightest bit of happiness on her face. Instead … It was a very strange expression.

After the red tassel had inadvertently mentioned Li Fengyi just now, she lost all spirit in his cooking, and he didn't eat his dinner. Instead, he stood quietly in front of the window, looking at the bright moon in the distance.

Today's moon was very big and round, but everywhere it shone with desolation.

Shangguan Qian'er clasped his hands behind his back and closed his eyes. A year of his own torture, the news of her family being destroyed, the scene of the young child dying, all these scenes … how could she let them go?

Li Fengyi, what you owe me, you must always repay me!

Suddenly, a strange sound of a flute rang out. It sounded like the sound of a bird, but it didn't sound like it. She followed the sound out of the palace.

Just at that moment, a black shadow quickly passed by in front of her. She quickly hid to the side and carefully examined her surroundings. After confirming that there was no one there, she unhurriedly followed him.

It was an abandoned palace, and there were very few people who would come here. She walked into the courtyard quietly, and a gust of cold wind blew across the courtyard, causing the atmosphere to become even weirder.

Ye Zichen smiled mockingly. At this moment, he saw that a candlestick had lit up in the room, while two shadows were shining on the window. They seemed to be discussing something.

Because she was too far away, she could not hear him clearly. She bit her lips and walked to the door, not giving up. She listened attentively.

"Tomorrow in the wedding procession …"

"Who's outside!"

Before they could say anything, they were discovered. Shangguan Qian felt that he was really unlucky, so he stood up wanting to run away, but he felt a strong gust of wind coming from behind him.

"Princess?" A rough voice sounded, carrying a trace of doubt. "Did she discover us? Shouldn't we have killed her? "

"No need, you can go." A deep voice came from within the room. The voice was pleasant to the ears, but the tone was too cold. It made people feel as if it was winter and October.

"Yes sir!" The boorish man clasped his hands and quickly left.

The shadow in the room slowly walked to the door and looked at the person who had fainted. As he walked out, the candlelight in the room instantly went out. In the darkness, only a corner of the room was faintly visible.
