Before he could say anything, Ruyi had quickly run over and explained in a low voice, “This maid didn’t order this. It seems to be the Crown Prince’s work.”

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

She just finished when a guard walked over and said respectfully, “Your Highness wants this guard to send you a message.”

Xian Sheng felt like this didn’t look good. “What?” 39eluO

“Your Highness said that he knows that the princess feels wronged, having to abandon your family. You were bound to play tricks and hurt yourself in order to test your husband’s feelings for you. Princess, don’t worry. Your Highness really pampers you. See, he even ordered people to bring over top-quality coal to warm your room up and prevent you from getting a cold. Someone is guarding the window, so even a huge gust of wind can’t blow the window open in the middle of the night. Princess just needs to be at ease and wait for the day of the wedding. You just need to eat and drink to your heart’s content.”

Xian Sheng’s body swayed. Ruyi hurriedly helped him up only to see him breathing with difficulty as if trying to suppress something. “And?”

The guard’s gaze landed on his feet. He hesitated before continuing, “And Your Highness said that the princess is mischievous and definitely won’t listen to his words and stay in bed. He said that you might even purposely play in the mud. However, you don’t need to worry about breaking the customs and not becoming the Crown Prince’s beloved because that custom is just a lie…”

He suddenly paused. Seeing that the noble princess pursed her lips and clenched her teeth, seemingly angry and was breathing heavily, he changed his words from “in order to hug you” into “no matter what, after the wedding, Your Highness will love the princess dearly.”
Xian Sheng was speechless.

The guard was dumbstruck.

Damnit. The princess seemed to be angrier than before.

Xian Sheng coughed anxiously and his face slightly flushed. He went back into his room without looking back.

He sat on the bed and his eyelashes blinked. He pursed his lips but he still couldn’t stop coughing. His eyes became gradually teary. h6ETxj

She said the last sentence softly and carefully.

Xian Sheng’s gaze landed on the embroidered flowers on the bed for a while. After a moment, he reminded, “This is Jin Country. Be careful of your words.”

Ruyi immediately realized that she addressed him by his nickname. She hurriedly nodded and said, “The medicine should be ready in a bit. Princess can drink to relieve your throat.” wvU JM

“You can leave. I’m fine.”

Ruyi was speechless.

If your eyes aren’t teary, this maid will believe you.

She had been serving Xian Sheng since he was young. Like maid like sister. She knew that although he appeared gentle on the surface, he was delicate and spoiled. As a child, he had never been denied anything before. In the past, whenever his eyes became teary, his elder brothers and father would give him whatever he wanted. He had never suffered a grievance like this. fiHVyc

If it weren’t that Crown Prince Zhan Lue insisted on having him and that the Liang Country had no other choice, they wouldn’t bear to send him over.

Originally, several princes were going to follow along to the journey to the North Jin. However, the Liang Country was in chaos and in trouble. Xian Sheng also stopped them so they only walked him to the border. Thinking of this now, it must be because Xian Sheng was worried that his elder brothers may protect him and end up stirring trouble in the capital.

The room gradually became warmer. Besides the occasional coughing, one could hear a pin drop in the room.

Xian Sheng ate dinner and then took the medicine. It didn’t taste like anything and the taste was faint in his mouth. He ate a pickled plum and strolled around in the room for a while, walking to the window, unresigned. zuVedH

The moment the window was opened, a plain face appeared in front of him. “Does the princess have any orders?”

Xian Sheng closed the window.

He walked to another window and he saw another simple face talking in a simple tone, “It’s cold outside. Princess, take care.”

He went to another window and it was the same result. Before the person could say anything, Xian Sheng knitted his eyebrows and closed the window. 91Z7fz

After a few bangs, Xian Sheng sat back on the bed angrily. He was sure that Zhan Lue had seen through his motive of delaying the wedding and at the same time, he knew that the man was determined to have their wedding in three days.

Everything that happened before was the man trying to tell him that he couldn’t escape.

Since he thought about Zhan Lue in the day, Xian Sheng ended up dreaming about him at night.

In his dream, he got sick as he wished, and it was very serious. He couldn’t even stand up still. But on the day of their wedding, Zhan Lue still had the wedding as planned. He carried Xian Sheng onto the sedan chair and then carried him over to do the ceremony. When they were done, Zhan Lue carried him into the bedroom. z3mPDI

The sick Xian Sheng allowed Zhan Lue to torture him as if he was a doll. When he figured out the truth, he was furious and killed him on the mandarin duck blanket. Then, Zhan Lue beheaded Xian Sheng and grabbed his head, starting a war and tossing his head in front of the Royal Family of the capital. Because Xian Sheng’s identity was exposed, countless people of the Liang Country were killed and injured.

Xian Sheng was startled awake from the nightmare and he was sweating hard.

He breathed anxious and then Ruyi quickly came in, saying, “Princess.”

There were too many furnaces in the room and this made him feel irritated and warm. He pointed at the teapot on the table. Ruyi helped him drink water and wiped the sweat off his head. Xian Sheng then weakly said, “What’s the time?” 5lk8xq

“It’s sometime between one and three in the morning.”

She caressed Xian Sheng’s back, looking worried. The latter gradually calmed down and as if to confirm something, he dragged his heavy body off the bed and lightly walked to the window. He carefully pushed a corner of the window.

A face immediately peeked over from the crack and enthusiastically said, “Princess…”

Bang. EOw1Yv

Xian Sheng directly closed the window.

He noticed that the people outside the window changed.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

It was really cold today and it was one thing for Zhan Lue to order guards to look over each window, but he even had them take shifts.

He’s sick. nurpFJ

Xian Sheng was forced back on the bed. He realized that no one seemed to be able to change this man’s decision.

He also thought of his dream and gave up delaying the wedding by trying to be sick in the end. After all, compared to being carried into the bedroom by Zhan Lue like a doll, it was better if he walked in.

At least, he had the strength to struggle then.

The three days passed much quicker than expected. It seemed to be in the blink of an eye and the post station suddenly got busy. The Chinese characters symbolizing happiness were pasted everywhere. Xian Sheng was woken up when it was barely morning. The mamas of the palace were elegant and uptight. They carried the wedding clothes over, smiling kindly. They said happily, “Princess, you’re finally awake. Quick. Change into the wedding dress and quickly dress up. The sedan chair is about to be here.” lCod0L

Xian Sheng glanced at the eye-piercing red and his fingertips were trembling. However, his mind already flew to the procedures at night.

There was probably going to be a conversation amongst the people tomorrow.

Blood splashed during the wedding night and the Crown Prince’s delicate wife died.
