She planned it very well. Song Ningyan had already cured her strange disease. As long as she married Li Qingqian as the seventh prince, she could take her away.

Anyway, my father never liked my seventh brother, and he didn’t even know that he was dead, so naturally he wouldn’t care about his marriage.

It seemed like it was about to succeed, but Li Zhengkang hesitated about the marriage.

A year later, Shen Changyun found her, directly revealed her identity, and warned himself not to have any bad intentions towards his wife who was not yet married.

Not long after that, she heard from Jiang Huaijing that Beiyuan tried to exchange a hostage with Dawei. She thought to herself that this was not good and that her father would definitely want her seventh brother to be the unlucky one.

Seeing that his other identity was about to be revealed, Jiang Huairong wanted to spread rumors about Li Qingqian and the Seventh Prince in the capital in order to achieve his goal of taking Li Qingqian away.

However, Shen Changyun took the lead and not only asked the Duke of Zhenguo to discuss the wedding date with Li Zhengkang, but also asked the emperor for an imperial edict.

When her first plan failed, she came up with another one. She thought about taking Li Qingqian away during the Lantern Festival last night. However, she didn't know that the other party had already seen through her trick and she was tricked by him instead.

Her plan failed, and Li Qingqian married Shen Changyun today.

Jiang Huairong held the letter in his hand and said to Canyu, "Have someone deliver these things to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion tomorrow. Since these things are the dowry I gave to the Crown Prince's wife, there is absolutely no reason for them to be taken back. As for what the Crown Prince's wife said..."

She pondered for a moment, curled her lips and smiled: "Since she promised, if I have any needs in the future, I will not be polite to her."

The house in the western suburbs was originally bought by Liu for her daughter, but the Liu family was in a critical situation now, so after Jiang Lin returned the house, Liu sold it and gave it to the Liu family.

Their newlywed house was rented by Jiang Lin with the money Cui'er gave him. It was a very small house with two courtyards in a noisy alley. There were not even any servants, so Li Shuyue brought a dozen people from the Li Mansion to serve them.

These people were not among the group that Li Qingqian replaced in the Li Mansion, but were bought for her with reluctance after Liu privately sold all her gold and silver jewelry.

However, Li Shuyue had been waiting since she was welcomed back to this house until now late at night. Only a few people came to watch the ceremony today, all of whom were friends who were going to take part in the March Spring Examination with Jiang Lin.

If the groom needs to entertain guests with toasts, he will have to come back no matter what.

Li Shuyue waited and waited but Jiang Lin never showed up. In addition, she was severely beaten when the sedan chair was shaken and the door was kicked today, so her patience was now exhausted.

So he shouted out the door: "Cui'er, Cui'er!"

Cui'er was the maid she brought from home as a dowry. She also helped her to gather information when she was in the Li Mansion, so Li Shuyue trusted her very much.

After shouting several times, Cui'er didn't come into the room, and Li Shuyue's anger was completely ignited.

She simply lifted her veil, lifted the hem of her wedding dress and walked out, but found that there was no one in the house.

Li Shuyue came to the center of the house and was about to shout into the air when Cui'er walked towards her in a hurry.

To be honest, it was already the late night, and Li Shuyue was still wearing a bright red wedding dress with obvious anger on her face. In such a silent environment where only the sound of the wind could be heard, she looked a little scary.

Cui Er came to her with a trembling body, "Miss, what do you want me to do?"

Li Shuyue glanced at her suspiciously and asked, "What's wrong with you? Why are you like this? Are you cold?"

Cui Er felt a little guilty and explained in a false voice, "I had a stomachache and went to the bathroom just now."

Li Shuyue was too lazy to talk to her about this at this time, "Let me ask you, where did the son-in-law go?"

Cui Er's eyes wandered, and she stammered, "Aunt, where is Uncle? How would I know?"

"We can't find him. Why don't you take people to look for him? Do you want me to become a laughing stock in the whole capital on my wedding night?"

Cui'er looked somewhat reluctant, but she didn't want to offend Li Shuyue, so she asked someone to search the mansion for Jiang Lin.

Half an hour later, a little maid from the mansion came forward and said in a trembling voice: "Fourth Miss, Fourth Miss, the uncle-in-law..."

"What's up with him?"

"He went out with his friends to drink and have fun!"

"What?" Li Shuyue jumped up from the seat in the main hall.

Today is his and my wedding night, but he goes out to drink and have fun?

Li Shuyue felt humiliated and scared at the same time. Jiang Lin was about to take the imperial examination, so how could he drink and party outside?

Isn't this just destroying your future?

No, I am now married to him, and we will prosper and suffer together. I cannot let Jiang Lin's career and the path to the throne in the future be ruined by him.

"Hurry up, tell all the servants in the mansion to bring my son-in-law back to me. Remember, don't let this matter spread!"

All the servants in the mansion had left, and Li Shuyue paced back and forth in the main hall in an anxious mood.

Cui Er looked outside the door, then took a few steps forward and asked, "Miss, if something really happened to my son-in-law, what should we do?"

"What can I do?" Li Shuyue widened her eyes and grabbed her shoulders. "He is not doing well. What can I do?"

Cui Er endured the pain in her shoulder and said, "Then we still have to think of a way to check and balance him."

She whispered something into Li Shuyue's ear, and Li Shuyue was so angry that she slapped her to the ground.

"Are you crazy? Today is my wedding day, and you dare to make such a request!"

Cui Er had long been annoyed by her actions, but she still suppressed her dissatisfaction and explained to her: "It is because I think that since you are married, there is someone you have to be on guard against."

Listening to her words, a person flashed through Li Shuyue's mind - Ling Ling.

Seeing that she had taken the bait, Cui Er raised her lips and got up from the ground and continued, "Now that you are married to the uncle, he has a reason to take Ling Ling into the mansion. But if you don't have a capable person to help you and restrain the uncle, then the mansion will become her world, right?"

Li Shuyue frowned. In fact, what Cui'er said made sense.

Now that I'm married, I have to make decisions on all matters, big and small, myself, so I have to think carefully about it.

Li Qingqian slept until noon. When the morning light slowly shone outside the bed curtains, she suddenly woke up.

Shen Changyun beside her also opened his eyes because of her action, "Are you awake now? Sleep a little longer."

"Why are you still sleeping?" Li Qingqian immediately wanted to get up and dress. "It's almost noon, isn't it? Hurry up, we have to get up and pay our respects to your father and mother!"

But when she moved, she pulled her sore muscles all over her body and almost blurted out a swear word.

Furious, she slapped Shen Changyun, who was looking at her with a smile, and said, "Why are you laughing? It's all your fault."

"Well, it was indeed my fault." Instead of being angry, Shen Changyun was even more proud.

Seeing that he had no chance of taking advantage of this guy, Li Qingqian was too lazy to bother with it. "Alright, stop joking. Hurry up and go pay your respects."

On the second day after marriage, the bride has to pay a visit to her parents-in-law, which is the custom.

Since the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo likes her, she cannot break this rule.

Shen Changyun pulled her back to the couch and said lazily with a nasal voice, "Don't I know my mother? She got up early yesterday and worked hard all day. I guess she is sleeping soundly now. Let's not disturb her sweet dreams."

Li Qingqian was firmly restrained, unable to move on the couch. She sighed helplessly and said, "But you should have remembered that I married from the palace, right?"

According to the rules, I have to go to the palace to pay my respects to His Majesty and His Majesty and express my gratitude.

Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, Shen Changyun simply got up as she wished.

"Okay, I will help you bathe and change clothes right away."

"Ah, what did you say?" Li Qingqian was a little panicked.

Shen Changyun blinked and said as a matter of course: "You must bathe and change clothes before entering the palace to see the emperor."

"That's not what I'm talking about," Li Qingqian tucked the corner of the quilt shyly, "Will you give me a bath?"

Shen Changyun came closer to her with a wicked smile on his face, "Of course... your husband and your wife will be together."

White, day, xuan, lewd?

This is ridiculous. Maybe this guy is using the excuse of taking a shower to relive what happened last night?

Li Qingqian shook her head and refused.

Seeing that his plan had failed, Shen Changyun pouted a little aggrievedly, "What's the big deal? Didn't we do everything we should have done last night?"

This is strange. Shen Changyun uses all his skills to tease her, right?

"Shen Changyun, what did you promise me before we got married? You said you would listen to me..." Li Qingqian looked as if she was about to cry.

Shen Changyun was a little confused. He just teased her a few times, so why did it look like he bullied her?

"Okay, okay, stop crying. Let's take a shower separately, okay?"

The next moment, Li Qingqian's expression, which was about to cry, suddenly brightened up again, and she waved at him: "Okay, go ahead, and call Yun Yi and Yun Shang in for me."

Shen Changyun pulled the corner of his mouth speechlessly. It turned out that he was just pretending.
