The doctor concubine who broke off the engagement was forced to rush to the wedding, but became the

Ever since the Enke incident, the Empress Dowager didn't want Xie Zhichan to have an easy time, but she restrained her tactics because Emperor Jingde needed Xie Zhichan.

Now that he finally had the chance, he wanted to vent his anger, so he issued an imperial decree to set the wedding date of Pei Yi and Qin Baiwei within a month, and gave Qin Baiwei a dowry on the wedding day. The rewards were not particularly good, but they were all large pieces of furniture, one piece of which could be used as a dowry, which made the scene look very grand.

When the common people who didn't know the truth saw this, they thought that the Prince of Yan's Mansion was getting married again?

Xie Zhichan naturally did not attend the wedding banquet, although she could have shown up to act like the legal wife and asked the concubine to offer her a cup of tea.

But this doesn't seem as interesting as staying in the back garden and watching the fish swimming freely.

"Are you sad?"

She was lying in the pavilion, watching a yellow goldfish and an orange goldfish fighting for food, when she suddenly heard a voice behind her asking.

Xie Zhichan felt the voice was familiar. He turned around and saw that it was Lu Xiuzhu. He turned back again and threw a few fish food beside him into the school of fish. He said in a nonchalant tone, "What's there to be sad about? She's just a concubine. If she's willing to come in, I'll just treat it as a moving stone lion in Prince Yan's mansion."

Hearing her indifferent attitude, Lu Xiuzhu took two steps closer, looked down at Xie Zhichan and asked, "You like him, right? Didn't you say you would divorce him after a year? Why do you like him?"

Xie Zhichan turned around, sat upright on the bench, looked up at Lu Xiuzhu, and said with a cold expression, "Because things are always changing, just like when my first fiancé was Mr. Lu, wasn't he?"

Lu Xiuzhu asked stubbornly: "You have been blaming me for breaking off the engagement, right? I did break off the engagement, but now Pei Yi has married someone else, how good is he?!"

Xie Zhichan said impatiently, "Master Lu, the past cannot be retrieved. I think you have read so many books, you should understand this principle. Even if he married a concubine, it is a matter between him and me. There is no need to explain anything to you, right?"

After saying that, she stood up and wanted to leave. There were many guests in the Prince of Yan's Mansion today. If someone saw her, there might be rumors.

But his wrist was grabbed by Lu Xiuzhu.

"Ayuan, you said that you would divorce him after one year."

Xie Zhichan glared at Lu Xiuzhu coldly: "Lord Lu! Whether I divorce Pei Yi is a matter between him and me, and has nothing to do with you. I heard that Princess Anle is pregnant, and I haven't congratulated Lord Lu yet. Lord Lu, please let go. After all, this is the Prince of Yan's mansion. If I shout, the guards in the mansion may mistake Lord Lu for an assassin and arrest him."

Lu Xiuzhu let go of Xie Zhichan's wrist, clenched his fist, and said through gritted teeth: "I won't have a child with her. She drugged me, and I didn't realize it for a moment, so -"

Xie Zhichan interrupted him in time and said, "What happened between you and Princess Anle has nothing to do with me. I don't care about what's going on in Lord Lu's backyard. I hope Lord Lu understands that he shouldn't always recall what he has lost. Otherwise, even the beautiful past will become a burden. Lord Lu, why don't you let go of the past and travel light?"

She knew that Lu Xiuzhu had paid the price for her breaking off the engagement and marrying someone else. Lu Xiuzhu was now imprisoned in a circle and put a tight ring around his neck, but she didn't want to be entangled with him anymore and passively trapped in the quagmire of the past.

After saying this, she left Lu Xiuzhu alone by the pond and went back to Tingxue Residence.

As soon as I returned to the room, I felt myself being lifted into the air and being caught in someone's arms.

Xie Zhichan called out softly, knowing it was Pei Yi, and then he looked down at the man who was holding him up, and said with a smile: "Why did you come here so quickly? Aren't you pretending over there?"

Pei Yi narrowed his eyes, looked at Xie Zhichan and asked, "Do you want me to stay there and pretend?"

Xie Zhichan felt the dangerous aura enveloping him instantly, and quickly covered his mouth, shook his head, and said in a muffled voice: "I don't want to."

Pei Yi carried her into the room, kicked the door shut, and put her down against the beam. Although he was a dangerous wolf, he pretended to be pitiful and said to Xie Zhichan, "Ayuan, this arranged marriage forced by the imperial power has caused severe trauma to my body and mind. My soul needs comfort."

After saying that, he buried his head in Xie Zhichan's neck and rubbed it back and forth. His hair scratched Xie Zhichan's neck, making her giggle.

She also found it funny in her heart that Pei Yi kept asking her about the world she came from. Now everyone knew to use the term "arranged marriage" to describe this marriage.

Pei Yi rubbed Xie Zhichan's neck for a while, raised his head, looked at Xie Zhichan and said: "Ayuan, don't push me to others next time. No matter what the reason is, it will make me feel that I am not important to you. I will be really sad, do you know?"

Xie Zhichan did not agree directly. She looked into his eyes and said, "Pei Yi, if I put you and the people of the world together and make a choice, I will still choose the people of the world. It's not because the lives of the people of the world are more important than yours, but because saving the dying and healing the wounded is my ideal. Just like putting me and Beijiang together, if you can only choose one of the two, you will definitely choose Beijiang. To love someone is to fulfill his ideals and give him a bigger world, not to let him be complacent for himself."

Pei Yi frowned and said nothing.

Xie Zhichan continued, "Besides, I know that if I really let down the world for you, you will bear a heavy psychological burden for the rest of your life. We are also one of the countless living beings. If we abandon the countless living beings, we will not be able to gain a foothold in the world anymore."

After saying that, seeing that Pei Yi was still frowning, she stood on tiptoe, kissed the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile: "Is this comfort enough?"

Pei Yi looked into her eyes, which showed a clear invitation, and kissed her on the lips.

After a long time, when the air between the two of them was very thin, he finally let go of the person in front of him and said in a hoarse voice: "Not enough. Unless it is absolutely necessary, you can't abandon me."

Xie Zhichan nodded, inserted his fingers between Pei Yi's, clasped their fingers together, and said, "You too."

She looked at Pei Yi. Although they had already discussed tonight as their wedding night, she was still a little nervous when it really came to this moment. She said, "It's getting late--"

Pei Yi smiled and whispered mysteriously in Xie Zhichan's ear: "I'll take you to a place."

Xie Zhichan was stunned. A night of spring is worth a thousand gold. Where is he going to take her so late at night?

She was inexplicably taken out of Prince Yan's Mansion by Pei Yi. The two of them rode on a horse together and headed to the suburbs in the cool night breeze.

When leaving the city wall, Pei Yi did not wake up the soldiers guarding the city. He jumped from the horse's back and took Xie Zhichan with him. He jumped onto the city wall with his lightness skills, and then jumped off the wall from the other side, and landed on Zhuiyun's horse.

After running for a while, Xie Zhichan recognized that this was the road leading to Qianyuan Villa. Thinking that Zhuiyun would be waiting outside the city wall, Pei Yi must have made some arrangements.

But I didn't expect that Pei Yi would arrange their wedding night at the hot spring villa. Was he thinking of having some fun just after getting married?

Could it be that Pei Yi still wants to play in the water like a pair of mandarin ducks?

Her cheeks were a little hot, and she asked him tentatively: "You want to take me to a hot spring in the middle of the night?"

Pei Yi laughed, and the vibration of his chest was transmitted to Xie Zhichan along his back, and even the happiness was transmitted to her.

"You'll know when it arrives."
