The mistress is not a cannon fodder, the cold prince falls in love with her every night

Yes, marrying Pei Heng was the corresponding strategy that Su Li came up with after thinking for a long time.

Pei Heng——Pei Yan’s elder brother, the prince of Jinyuanhou Mansion.

The book says:

"Pei Heng is a man of brilliance and talent, a man of both civil and military abilities, a peerless young man envied by everyone in the capital.

Unfortunately, three years ago, he was severely injured in a battle and became a quadriplegic, so he was a cripple from the start."

If she was destined to stay in the Jinyuan Marquis Mansion, she would rather marry this paralytic who was once famous all over the world to win a better future for herself.

It is better than wasting your life in the future by staying with a man who doesn't love you and schemes against you all the time for the sake of fame and face.

The key point is that Pei Heng left behind a pair of children, and children were a blessing that she could never have asked for in her previous life!

"Can't!"

Su Li's wet nurse, Madam Li, was so anxious that she cried out.

She knelt down beside Su Li, hugged her arms and shook her vigorously, hoping to wake her up.

"Miss, do you know what you are saying? Prince Pei...he..."

Nanny Li had a thousand words to say in her heart, but after all, she was on someone else's territory, in front of someone else's parents, so she swallowed her words back, squeezed her hands hard, gritted her teeth and said,

“In any case, no!

Since the young lady is unwilling to marry Pei Yan, let's go back and ask the master and the mistress to make the decision for her.

"The Marquis of Jinyuan's Mansion is too much of a bully. We won't stay here any longer! Let's go!"

As he said that, he called on the maids Songzhi and Songtao to help Su Li.

Su Li, however, held Li Ma's hand and said softly:

"Mammy, I have made up my mind. No need to say more."

Nanny Li was extremely distressed.

Although she said that she would go back to ask Marquis Yong'an and his wife to make the decision, what would happen after she returned?

For the sake of face, Marquis Yong'an will probably never have anything to do with Marquis Jinyuan's Mansion again, and the young lady will probably have to grow old alone from now on, never get married, and even never see anyone again!

Why is Miss's life so miserable!

Nanny Li was really unwilling to give in.

When Marquis Jinyuan heard this, he was first shocked, then disbelief, and then ecstasy.

Pei Heng is his sweetheart.

For three years, he has been wanting to find a wife for his son, but which good girl would be willing to come into the mansion to serve a paralytic and be someone's stepmother?

Now that Su Li proposed to marry Pei Heng, he was so happy that he couldn't contain himself!

But he was also worried that Su Li was just acting on impulse.

"Li'er, are you... serious?"

"Of course I take it seriously!

Three years ago, Prince Pei fought for his country, single-handedly resisting foreign enemies and bringing peace and prosperity to the country today. His heroic deeds should be remembered by the world!

It is my honor for me, Su Li, to marry a hero of Daqi!

My Lord, I volunteer to be the Crown Prince's bride and to be the hero who takes care of the people of Daqi. I will do this for the rest of my life, without complaint!

Su Li spoke these words sincerely and did not forget to flatter herself.

Once this compliment is given, the marriage has to happen!

After she marries into the Marquis' Mansion, no one will dare to bully her!

Marquis Jin Yuan was also overwhelmed with emotion and tears streaming down his face when he heard this.

Yes, Pei Heng has ended up in this situation because of his dedication to his country and the people.

Su Li's words really touched his heart.

What's more, he has a talented eldest son. Which girl in Shengjing doesn't like him?

However, he still had concerns...

An elderly but cheerful voice came from the door, shouting:

"Okay! Well said!"

As soon as he finished speaking, all the maids and servants in the wedding hall knelt down, and even Marquis Jinyuan and his wife stood up to greet him in person.

"Mother, why are you here?"

"Humph! If I don't come soon, this mansion will be in chaos."

After saying that, an old lady with gray hair but bright spirit walked into the main hall with a dragon-headed cane and swift steps.

She sat down in the first seat and started cursing at the Marquis's wife:

"A loving mother often spoils her child! Look at the wonderful son you have raised!"

The Marquis's wife looked embarrassed and hesitated to speak.

The old lady looked at Su Li intently, then asked her personal attendant, Madam Zhao, to help her up. She took her hand and said,

“Good boy, you’ve suffered.

I, an old woman, am deeply touched by your kindness towards Heng'er.

But I must also tell you the truth about Heng'er's situation.

The doctor said that Heng'er...he...doesn't have much time left..."

The old lady choked up.

The doctor said that her most beloved grandson Pei Heng could only live for another three months at most, and the mansion had already prepared for his funeral.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be so anxious to advance Pei Yan's marriage, for fear that something unexpected would happen and the two major events would collide with each other.

"I know!"

Su Li said lightly,

"Don't worry, old lady. As long as the prince is alive, I will serve him. If he passes away one day, I will quietly live with him as a widow."

"Are you willing?" The old lady looked at her in surprise.

Su Li just smiled slightly, looked at her with sparkling eyes, and said softly:

"Old Madam, perhaps with this joyous occasion today, the Crown Prince will be better."

……

The book says that although Pei Heng is weak, he can at least live for another year.

A year later, Pei Hengcai starved himself to death because he had completely lost hope in life.

Shortly after Pei Heng's death, the Jinyuan Marquisate was involved in a struggle for the throne. They were framed, their property was ransacked, their titles were stripped away, and eventually the family was destroyed.

And it was from that time that the playboy Pei Yan began to grow up.

He used Su Li to trade power for sex and climbed up step by step.

And the concubine Liu Xu also began to shine.

Su Li thought, since she was here, she would never let poor Pei Heng starve to death!

A year or even longer!

She wants Pei Heng to live forever!

……

After hearing this, the old lady was stunned for a moment, then she sighed deeply, pinched her handkerchief and pressed the corners of her eyes.

"Good boy, I know you are trying to comfort me.

But I am glad that you have this heart.

You are worthy of being the good daughter trained by the Marquis of Yong'an. You are well-educated, sensible, and considerate of the overall situation. It is his blessing that Heng'er married you.

I hope that your good words will allow me to see him get better one day."

After the old lady said this, the marriage between Su Li and Pei Heng was settled.

Soon, the person sent from Yong'an Marquis' Mansion to deliver the message came back.

As Su Li expected, the steward of Yong'an Marquis's mansion came to the door in person and said that Yong'an Marquis not only agreed to his daughter's marriage to the prince, but also added an additional 20 loads of dowry and a farm as a dowry.

……

Soon, the wedding hall was redecorated.

Su Li dressed up again and put on a big red veil.

The wedding continues.

A huge rooster was brought up.

In an extremely strange atmosphere, witnessed by all the guests, Su Li and a big rooster that kept crowing "cluck, cluck, cluck" worshipped heaven and earth.

This farce finally came to an end.

……

Qingshan Courtyard, which was deserted during the day, began to be decorated with lights and colorful decorations at noon, and was filled with joy everywhere.

After paying homage to heaven and earth, Su Li, supported by the matchmaker, entered the bridal chamber of Qingshan Courtyard.

Servants came in and out, and finally when the red candles were lit, everything quieted down.

Su Li lifted the veil herself.

The room was low-key and elegant, with red candles with dragon and phoenix patterns crackling and bursting.

There was a thick smell of sandalwood burning in the room, and there was an indescribable strange smell beneath the sandalwood.

Su Li frowned, feeling an inexplicable pain in her heart.

There is always a strange smell in the room of a person who has been ill for a long time.

Looking at all the joyous things in the bridal chamber and feeling the man lying behind the red curtain, Su Li finally woke up from the unreality of today.

From today on, she is the wife of the Crown Prince of Jinyuan Marquis's Mansion, and the Crown Prince Pei Heng lying motionless on the bed behind her is her husband.

Nanny Li, Songzhi and Songtao wiped their tears silently.

"Miss……"

Before Nanny Li could finish her words, Su Li interrupted her with a wave of her hand.

"Mammy, there's no need to say more. I'm tired. You can go down first."

"But……"

Songzhi glanced at the large carved bed that was tightly covered and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Pei Yan is so hateful!

The lady is so pitiful!

The master is so cruel!

But now that things have come to this, there is no turning back. The three of them sighed and quietly left the bridal chamber.

Only then did Su Li have time to turn around.

The exquisitely carved bed had thick red curtains that covered the person inside tightly.

Pei Heng on the bed had been motionless since she came in, as if dead silent.

Su Li held her breath and whispered:

"Hello, Prince. I'm Su Li. Nice to meet you."

No sound, no response.

Dead silence.

Su Li suddenly felt a little scared.

No!

Doesn’t the book say that although Pei Heng’s limbs are all disabled, he is conscious?

what happened?

Did everything change because of her arrival?

She's just too unlucky then.

"Prince?"

Thinking of this, Su Li's voice trembled a little. She took a deep breath, bit her lip, and shouted tentatively again.

Still no response.

Su Li made up her mind and pulled open the red curtain.

Even though she had prepared herself mentally countless times, she was still shocked when she saw Pei Heng's appearance on the bed.

Oh my God, is this still a human being?
