Chapter 3

The days passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it had been three months since Zhen Mi entered Cao's house as a prisoner.During this period, the servants of Cao's mansion treated her as a guest of honor, but usually no one came to her, so she was left alone.

Cao Zhi often wrote letters to her and sent poems to her, and Zhen Mi also knew current affairs, knew what to do and what not to do, and kept a distance from Cao Zhi. In addition, she was polite to others, and Mrs. Cao liked this smart child even more.

If this life can be spent in such a smooth and stable way, it would be a good destination, Zhen Mi thought so.Unexpectedly, misfortune fell from the sky.

During these days, Mrs. Cao came to visit her, and Zhen Mi obviously felt that Mrs. Cao's attitude towards her had become better, as if treating her...

She didn't dare to think about it, but the uneasiness in her heart came out suddenly, until Mrs. Cao said that she had brought news, her heart thumped, she suppressed her mind, and squeezed out what she always showed on weekdays. Smiling impolitely, he calmed down and asked Madam what the news was.

Sure enough, it was expected, but Zhen Mi couldn't accept it as calmly as expected.In the front hall today, Cao Cao ordered to find relatives for the two sons, pointed the daughter of Qinghe Cui's family to Cao Zhi, and pointed her...to Cao Pi.

Thinking of Cao Pi, Zhen Mi is already a very vague shadow.

Except for that time in Yuan's Mansion, she has never seen him again. Although they are usually in Cao's Mansion, one is in the West Wing and the other is in the East Wing. In addition, she usually doesn't go out, so she won't meet him at all.

She didn't know why Cao Cao pointed her to Cao Pi, and she didn't have the strength to think about it.

Suddenly, a feeling of powerless sadness arose in her heart. She just wanted to stay away from the struggle and calculation, and live simply, but it was so difficult...

People are under the eaves, as captives, the power of life and death is in the hands of others, not to mention marriage.

Not to mention that Cao Cao just married her to Cao Pi, even if she was pointed out to a lowly slave, what right did she have to resist and choose?
She doesn't care about many people, but it's all in the hands of the Cao family...

The wedding ceremony was very grand, only slightly smaller than the royal standard, as if deliberately making it known to the world, Cao Cao invited countless civil and military officials.

Marrying a wife as a prisoner is naturally not a glorious thing. No matter how beautiful Zhen Mi is, it can't change the fact that she is the wife of Yuan Xi who defeated the war, let alone Cao Zhi and the daughter of a nobleman.

In other words, the bigger the wedding, the more humiliating it was for Cao Pi, and Zhen Mi also knew that she happened to be this pawn unfortunately.

It's just that she couldn't figure it out, why would a father treat his son like this?Born to the same mother, why does Cao Cao have such a different attitude towards Cao Pi and Cao Zhi?

The wedding proceeded step by step, and at the end of the hall worship, it was already evening, and Zhen Mi was helped down the hall.

When she left the lobby, she vaguely caught a glimpse of the red wedding dress that Cao Pi was wearing today from under the hipa.

Unable to see his face, Zhen Mi only saw a white round jade pendant on his waist, which seemed to be very valuable.

Suddenly remembered the last time, that time he was wearing a golden battle armor, and at his waist...was the long sword. Subconsciously, Zhen Mi looked down at the scar on her right hand.

This is what she left behind when she tried to die under that sword last time. The scar has dissipated a lot, and now it looks like a faint line...

"Bride, be careful." Noticing her movements, in the corridor, the bride next to her reminded her, and slowly lowered her arms, Zhen Mi followed the bride into the wedding room step by step.

Thinking of the wedding room with Cao Pi, she just felt strange, and the uneasiness in her heart began to throb again.

The rest of the people gradually left. The bride was sitting on the bed in the bridal house, and the two bridesmaids were standing beside her. Zhen Mi waited for a long time with seven shell fans in her hand, but the man did not come.

Thinking about it, he was not happy today, Zhen Mi didn't move, just kept the sitting posture holding the fan, without changing at all, she was still as indifferent as before, without a trace of displeasure between her brows, and there was no so-called happy expression.

Xi Niang looked at each other in dismay, very pleased with Zhen Mi's performance, it was already late, and the groom hadn't returned for a long time, if there was someone who was ignorant, there would have been trouble.No wonder Mrs. Cao likes this daughter-in-law so much.

Suddenly there was a sound at the door, Xi Niang looked over, and saw Cao Pi who was staggering and holding on to the door frame, walking unsteadily, "The bridegroom is here, the groom's official is here..."

Xi Niang immediately laughed and shouted loudly, as if deliberately telling Zhen Mi.

The hand holding the fan trembled for no reason, and did not put down the cover on his face, Zhen Mi just glanced sideways at the wedding dress and the pair of black boots on him.

If it wasn't for fear of angering the Prime Minister, he would even want to change his clothes to black, right?
Presumably, she and Cao Pi both rejected this marriage. Suddenly, Zhen Mi had a feeling of "the same people who have fallen into the world", and the corners of the woman's lips curved slightly, as if laughing at this farce .

It's just... Looking down carefully again, Zhen Mi discovered that there were gray footprints on the mud at the bottom of his boots, from the door to the bedside of the wedding room.

The prime minister's mansion is always tidy, and it is impossible for the dust to be swept away. Today is another big wedding, except for... the stables.

He went to the stables?
Sima Yi suddenly popped up in Zhen Mi's mind.I heard from people in the mansion that this person has a very high heart, and Cao Pi repeatedly asked him to help but was rejected. A few days ago, he was demoted by Cao Cao to raise horses...

Zhen Mi was still thinking wildly, the things in her hands had already been taken off, and he casually threw aside the precious seven-shell fan. Zhen Mi folded her hands on her knees, neither raised her head nor lowered her eyes.

She stared straight at the Hejin wine on the table, and never raised her head to look at Cao Pi.There are many etiquettes, and they are so perfect that they can't pick the slightest mistake.

"Head up."

However, Cao Pi couldn't understand this look. At this time, she lowered her eyebrows, but the indifference between her eyebrows was still the same as when they first met.

This woman, like that person, will always look the same, her mind is so deep that it is hard to fathom.

Thinking of the wedding ordered by Cao Cao, Cao Pi's grievances became more and more serious. Why, no matter what he did, he couldn't compare to Zijian!
Zhen Mi raised her head obediently, looking at the person she was going to spend her whole life with.

Maybe it was because of the red wedding dress, he was not as serious and cold as wearing a battle armor, but at the moment his brows were furrowed, and he was looking at Zhen Mi very unfriendly.

"It's time for the newlyweds to drink some wine." Seeing that the two hadn't spoken, Xi Niang quickly adjusted the atmosphere. The two Xi Niang looked at each other and bent down to help Zhen Mi up.

Without saying anything else, Cao Pi waved his sleeves and turned around, and sat on the jade stool. Under his gaze, Zhen Mi also sat down.

"The newlyweds drank Hebei wine together, and from then on, they will grow old together."

Hearing these words, there was a feeling of familiarity after a long time. Zhen Mi laughed at herself and raised the wine in Xi Niang's hand. Cao Pi had always had bright eyes, so he naturally saw the insincere smile on her lips.

Drinking wine together, riding a white horse in red clothes, is the youthful dream of many young girls. Perhaps, she has dreamed of it before, but it is not like it is now.

Drinking the Hebei wine, looking at each other without saying a word...

She sat back on the bed, the bride had already closed the door and went out, half of the wedding was completed, and the remaining half... Zhen Mi didn't know how to complete it.
