Marry my elder sister? Fine! I'll give you the letter of annulment and marry someone else.

"I say, there's no hidden emotional connection between you and him, right?"

Song Zhi glanced over indifferently, and the word "bad luck" was clearly written in his eyes.

The girl quickly continued, "Okay, okay, don't be angry, I'll continue."

"Mu Yuanzhi actually didn't know the exact whereabouts of the master's wife. He only said that he seemed to have seen her in the capital."

"This information is unclear and not very useful. After all, we have received similar news before, which is why we came to the capital again. So after some discussion, we decided to send only me to deal with this matter. It doesn't matter whether it succeeds or not, as long as we try our best. Anyway, Mu Yuanzhi's information is of no help."

After she said this, Song Zhi immediately understood.

No wonder she didn't care about whether the task was completed at that time, and he was very dedicated to introducing their unique trading model to her.

It seems like they are just trying to be perfunctory and don't take it to heart at all.

However, this also sounded a wake-up call for Song Zhi.

If there were more people coming this time, would she still be able to handle this matter easily and quietly?

I'm afraid that even if they didn't succeed, today's wedding banquet would become a farce with chaos and loss of solemnity.

This is exactly what Mu Yuanzhi planned. He is really scheming.

Song Zhi's gloomy expression made people feel inexplicably uneasy, and the girl knelt on the ground.

"Good-hearted people, please don't kill me. I am a poor man working for others, not by my own will."

She looked pitiful and played the emotional card.

Song Zhi thought that when Jiang Li was training these people, he must have focused on teaching them how to act pitiful when they were in a weak position.

Or maybe this girl has been subdued too many times and has gained experience, so she can tell lies easily.

However, judging from how smoothly she knelt just now, the second reason was obviously more convincing.

Song Zhidao: "I won't kill you, but..."

Song Zhi took out a pill from the bedside cabinet and said, "I want you to regularly inform me of the progress of your search for your wife."

The girl immediately sensed something unusual in the words, "Do you know our wife? Otherwise, why would you be so concerned about this matter?"

Song Zhi also has a say in the lies that come out of people's mouths.

She said seriously, "I don't know your wife, but I also have a very beautiful friend. She's still unmarried and isn't anyone's wife. I personally unilaterally rated her as the most beautiful woman in the world, but after seeing the portrait you just showed me, I feel like there can't be a woman more beautiful than my friend. The person in this portrait must be your imagination, so I'd like to have a chance to see her in person and compare."

The girl was stunned, "Just for this?"

Song Zhi nodded, "Just for this."

The girl hesitated, "But we've been looking for her for years, and the only response we get here is 'I've seen her before'. We don't know when we'll be able to see her in person again."

Song Zhi waved his hand and said, "It's okay. It's not like my wife ran away and I can't find her. I'm not that anxious."

The girl still couldn't make up her mind, so Song Zhi pulled out the dagger again and made a silent threat.

The girl immediately said, "Okay, okay, I'll send you a pigeon with the progress every three months, okay?"

After saying that, she walked over, took the pill and swallowed it, and took the initiative to open her mouth wide for Song Zhi to check.

After doing all this, the girl said, "My name is Lizhi. Can I ask you for a favor? Please don't tell anyone about what happened today. It's a bit embarrassing, and I'm afraid my colleagues will laugh at me."

Song Zhi: “…”

It's her turn to say, "You're the one who shouldn't tell everyone about what happened today."

Just report the progress to her on time every three months.

The two of them didn't quite trust each other's character, and always felt that the other would tell everyone after they were done.

Lizhi sighed even more, thinking that she would feel relieved if she could also feed Song Zhi a poison.

However, as soon as she had this thought, she was instantly locked in by more than a dozen murderous intentions, which frightened her so much that she quickly smiled friendly.

Finally, after giving Lizhi a few more instructions, Song Zhi told her to leave quickly, otherwise it would be a big disappointment if Mu Nanqi came over and saw her without the veil.

Litchi left without looking back.

Every few steps, he would turn back and emphasize with his eyes: Don’t tell anyone.

Song Zhi became impatient and asked the secret guard to close the door to block the view.

Xiao Tao slowly woke up at this time. She was helped to lean against the couch. After waking up, she jumped up subconsciously.

"Oh no, Miss, run quickly, it's dangerous here."

However, when she looked around in a daze, she found Song Zhi sitting there drinking tea.

"Miss!!!"

Xiao Tao's eyes widened. "How could you lift up your veil by yourself? This is too unlucky."

Song Zhi didn't take it seriously. "It's okay. My Jili is not restricted to one side of the veil. You just fainted from exhaustion. Come and sit down and take a rest."

Xiao Tao looked puzzled. "Fainted from exhaustion? No, no, no, it was clearly the maid at the door who knocked me unconscious. She..."

Xiaotao pointed at the door, but it was closed properly, nothing was wrong, and the maid was nowhere to be seen.

Song Zhi said, "She was just offering me some blood swallow soup. I told her I didn't want it and she was about to take it away. I didn't expect you to faint right in front of her when you went over. It scared her. Xiao Tao, after today, I plan to let you rest for two days. You've been really tired these days worrying about this wedding."

After Xiao Tao was executed in his previous life, Song Zhi did not want to drag her into his own grudges in this life.

She just wants to be carefree like this forever.

Song Zhi spoke so confidently that Xiao Tao couldn't help but touch the back of her neck. Could it be that she really fainted from exhaustion?

The pain in the back of your head must be from falling and hitting the ground.

As for the fact that she saw the maid raising her hand and slashing at her with a knife, it must be that the maid saw that she was not in a good condition and was about to help her up.

Xiaotao gave herself reasonable explanations for all the problems she felt there.

When she raised her eyes again, she did not refuse and said, "Okay, maybe this servant should really take a rest, otherwise what will I do if I fail at a critical moment in the future?"

Seeing that Xiaotao believed him so easily, Song Zhi's eyes softened.

This doesn't mean that Xiaotao is stupid or easy to fool, it just means that Xiaotao trusts her too much.

She firmly believed that her lady's words would never be wrong and would never harm her.

So she trusted her unconditionally.

Song Zhi squeezed Xiao Tao's hand, his eyes warm.

The master and servant sat in the bridal chamber and smiled at each other. The breeze was already warm, and the wind blew across their faces through the window, making them feel indescribably comfortable.

In the midst of peace, a loud voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"The Emperor has arrived."
