The wedding was on day, and at midnight, all the lanterns in the Moon Restaurant's pavilions were completely lit up. The night wind that filled the sky was mixed with flower petals that covered the entire pavilion. The red carpet covered a distance of a thousand miles. Apart from the delicate falling flowers, there was also the coolness of the unfaded shadow of the moon. It was like a layer of gauze wrapped around it, pure white and chilly.
He did not invite any guests, but Leng Mufei had given her a large quantity, he had considered everything thoroughly, from the very beginning, this man had already meticulously planned out this wedding. Every single piece of music was arranged according to the style that Luo Shang liked, even the dancers and Moon Slaughter Devil Sovereign had once been a part of the palace.
He knew that she loved cherry blossoms and had not brought any warm wind to her house that night. Almost all of the peach trees in the garden had been replaced with cherry trees.
In the top-most room, in front of the window with the curtain fluttering, a simple yet elegant and pretty woman looked at the wind, at the endless night sky in the distance.
She half lifted her head. It was just a movement, a silhouette, but it was graceful and proud. It was like a tall, cold, tree-lined, snow-white plum blossom standing against the wind, beautiful and enchanting, yet wild and unruly.
His eyes were indifferent, just like the coldest moon in the sky. Other than the cold, there was no other emotion he could find. With her long hair fluttering in the wind like a floating cloud, she slowly took out a sharp blade from her sleeve. Under the moonlight, the blade's edge was extremely cold, and its light was as sharp as ice.
From the day Leng Mufei had forcefully given her the medicine, she had always kept the dagger on his. If he could leave today, then his actions would have been useless. If he was unlucky, she could at least retain his last bit of innocence and self-esteem. If she could not escape, then the only thing left behind would be her corpse.
"Madam, it's time. This servant will help you change." The maidservants' bowing voices sounded from outside the door.
Luo Shang slowly withdrew her sharp and exquisite dagger and hid her original position. She walked from the window to the dressing table and sat down gracefully with the veil behind her, her face contorted with emotion, until a group of female servants holding onto beautiful bridal dresses, the noble phoenix coronet hundred rose hairpin and other accessories came to her side. Her expression was still as calm as ever.
Her heavy hair was tied up in a high bun, but her glittering steps and phoenix coronet was as heavy as her heart. With her thick makeup, her domineering moth eyebrows, deep red lips, and a few streaks of red from her two nightmares, she was extremely charming.
When the two maidservants began to undress her, they heard her coldly speak out. "Wait a moment."
The Maidservant stopped and looked up at her.
With a shallow smile, she said, "I'll do it myself."
The servants took a look and knew what she was thinking. They respectfully replied, leaving only two people behind. The rest all left the room and stood guard outside the door.
After everyone had left, Luo Shang stopped her movements and sat down by the side of the table.
A servant girl carefully prodded, "Madam, this servant will help you undress."
Luo Shang gave a light smile, caressed her sleeves and poured two cups of tea, looking at them in the blink of an eye, she said softly: "From today onwards, I will be your wife, and I will have to trouble you to take care of me in the future."
The two servants quickly kneeled down in fear. "We servants do not dare, it is your duty to serve the madam well."
"Get up." Luo Shang stood up and extended her hands to support them, but the servants kept their distance and retreated respectfully. Seeing this, she could only smile, turn around, pick up the tea from the table and pass it to them.
and said, "You know, I... Being able to receive your master's care and affection today is naturally a blessing from the heavens. Even if you are to be married off, you should not have any more requests, but can I implore the two of you to be the person who delivers your marriage? It would not be in vain for me to be alone without my family. "
The maidservants were all hesitant. If it were anyone else, they would definitely refuse him. However, the woman before them had a pair of beautiful eyes that made it hard for them to refuse her.
Knowing that they had good intentions and were able to see through their thoughts, Luo Shang pretended to be bitter: "It's just that my consideration was not thorough enough, since you all are so unwilling, then forget it." With a faint smile and a sigh, she slowly stroked the corner of the table with her soft fingers under her long sleeves. With half a soft look in her eyes, she sighed and said, "The wind owes the candle a ray of incense."
I heard that their wife was once the princess of the Prince Jin Palace. Then, for some reason, she suffered the grief of her family being destroyed by the Luo Family. The maids' hearts grew stronger and stronger, but they still felt a lingering fear.
They looked at the two golden cups and the jade cups on the table that were half full of tea. They looked at each other, hesitating.
Seeing that, Luo Shang pursed his lips and laughed, elegantly reaching out her hand to pour half a cup, facing them, she rolled up her sleeves and drank, then wiped the remaining drops off the corner of her lips.
Seeing that Luo Shang was alright, the two servant girls finally took the tea cup and drank it without worry.
"Madam, the two of us will escort you to your marriage. May you and master share the same heart and soul, we … "I …" As she spoke, the servant girl's voice became softer and softer. She shook her head and her vision gradually became blurry. Soon after, both of them fell to the ground unconscious.
The room was still empty and quiet, but it was different. Luo Shang looked at the two of them, creased her eyebrows, and stooped down to speak softly: "Sorry …"
She knew that Leng Mufei wouldn't hurt them no matter what, because he knew that no one could stop Luo Shang if she wanted to leave her heart. That was why she broke her word and did such an unrighteous action, but Luo Shang had no choice, because this was her last chance.
Seeing that she had not come out for a long time, the maidservants outside the door called out to her. No one answered, so the maidservants had no choice but to push open the door. When they saw the scene in front of them, their mouths gaped wide open.
At the same time, the man in the lobby was sitting quietly in the master seat. He was dressed in a seductive and beautiful wedding dress, with sharp corners and graceful bearing. He slowly turned the thumb ring as if he was thinking of something, and his eyes were filled with worry.
Suddenly, the old butler brought the two girls to report. When they arrived in front of him, the butler sternly and reproachfully opened his mouth and shouted to the two maidservants kneeling on the ground, "Why are you crying? Why aren't you telling me what happened?"
The two kneeling on the ground shrunk their bodies as tears streamed down their faces. They wiped their tears away and sobbed weakly, "Lord …" Master, Madam, she … "She …"
Leng Mufei had always been a kind person. If one were to say that Leng Shaoyu was a block of ice that could give people cold pressure at any time, then the man in front of his was water. No matter what, he would always be able to warm and melt you.
Now, however, he was unusually serious. With a dark expression, he asked, "What's wrong with Madame?"
The two maidservants looked and did not dare to say anything. After hearing the angry "Speak — —" above their heads, they bit their lips in fear and nervousness. Their faces turned red and they had no choice but to speak, "Madam, she is missing …"
"Master, have mercy! Master, have mercy!" The servant kept kowtowing until her head was smashed open.
The butler specially instructed them to not let anything happen today. If they knew earlier, they would have kept a close eye on Luo Shang, but they called for the two soft-hearted girls to guard him.
When they broke into the room, there was no sign of him except the two unconscious men on the floor and their clothes. Only now did they remember that just now, one of the maidservants had taken the teacup out of the room. Because that person had left in a hurry and lowered his head, they did not pay close attention to her appearance, but because she was wearing the maid's clothes and had combed her hair into a bun just like theirs, Luo Shang took the opportunity to escape.
Leng Mufei pursed his lips, his pair of warm eyes gradually grew cold, and his palms slowly closed. After a long while, his face ashened and could only say one thing. Get out. "
The maidservants raised their heads in tears. After crying, they quickly retreated, not daring to stay a moment longer.
The man raised his long and narrow eyes as he revealed an infatuated smile from the corner of his mouth. His black starry eyes were so deep that no one could tell what he was thinking.
"Trying to escape …" He chuckled to himself, and turned around to instruct the Miyagi behind him: "Even if you have to turn this Moon Pavilion Workshop upside down, you have to find her for me. But remember, you need to be completely unharmed. "
No matter what, he would never want to hurt Luo Shang, and was afraid that she would suffer even the tiniest bit of harm. Even when she deliberately tried to compromise and escape, other than his anger and disappointment, he also felt pity for her.
As the guard left, the hand that was clenching his fist landed heavily on the table. The shaking of the wine cup caused it to shake, and the water inside also splashed out.
A servant's voice came from outside the main hall. Prince Jin, please hold on, please hold on … "
Prince Jin. He still came. He still found this place.
Leng Shaoyu...
