On the wedding day, my wife was abnormal

Zhang Li's gaze swept across the half-naked shoulders of Liu Shuyao and Xiao Cui, and the remaining reluctance in her heart finally disappeared at this moment.

Her face was stern, and she held a porcelain plate in her hand. She neither bowed humbly nor raised it respectfully, but just stood there quietly.

Liu Shuyao was instantly confused, her eyes full of astonishment. She retreated in panic, her arm accidentally sweeping across the teacups and wine utensils on the table as she staggered.

"Bang!"

The crisp sound of shattering echoed in the house, just like Liu Shuyao's fragmented mood at the moment, echoing endlessly.

She shook her head, her eyes full of disbelief, and said in a trembling voice: "Who are you? What kind of wine is this!?"

Xiao Cui reacted and felt relieved immediately because there was only one glass of wine on Zhang Li's tray, which meant that the glass of wine was for Liu Shuyao, not for herself.

She stood aside timidly, her lips and teeth tightly pursed, afraid of disturbing this delicate balance.

Zhang Li took a step forward and said, "I, Zhang Li, am here on the orders of the Crown Prince to invite Madam Lin to drink."

The simple words were like a cold wind blowing through the room, making Liu Shuyao's heart sink into the abyss in an instant, cold to the bone.

Liu Shuyao's reaction was almost hysterical. She screamed in denial, "No! Impossible! Lin Zhen loves me! He would never do this to me! Who are you? Why did you pretend to be Lin Zhen's order and poison me?"

"Come here, please give the lady a drink."

"Yes."

Ergou and Hou Chun responded and stepped forward. Although there was reluctance on their faces, their steps were extremely firm.

Liu Shuyao was terrified and retreated involuntarily, but ultimately failed to escape the capture of the two men.

She struggled, "No! Ergou! I am the young lady of the palace. How dare you be so rude? What is your punishment?"

Ergou's face, which usually wore a playful expression, was now unusually serious. He whispered, "Madam, I'm sorry."

Seeing Ergou's rough hand slowly reaching towards her lips, Liu Shuyao shook her head in horror and screamed, "No! No! Please let me see Lin Zhen again, just once!"

There was endless pleading in her voice, as if this was the last ray of hope she could grasp.

"Xiao Cui! Xiao Cui! Come and save me!" Liu Shuyao called out with some urgency and expectation, but Xiao Cui just stood there quietly, like a cold statue.

She stared at Liu Shuyao, her face dark and unclear, her eyes flashing with resentment and sinister light, and her tone was gloomy: "Miss, it turns out that there are times when you also beg me for help~"

Xiao Cui's face twisted, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. That smile contained endless chill and the pleasure of revenge: "Heh, why didn't you save me when Lin Zhen insulted me?"

When Liu Shuyao heard this, her eyes widened instantly, full of disbelief and shock: "You...you actually..."

"You'd better get on your way. I'll take care of Gu...Shi..." Xiao Cui's eyes swept over Ergou and the other man beside her. She paused briefly before changing her words and saying, "...Prince, you can rest assured."

"You bitch! Beichen doesn't like a vicious woman like you!" Liu Shuyao yelled angrily, her words filled with anger and resentment at Xiao Cui's betrayal.

"I'm vicious? Haha, Liu Shuyao, don't think I don't know what you and your father are planning. Didn't you just want to take advantage of Lin Zhen's double-flirting to poison me as well? Didn't expect it? Things have changed, and now you're the one being poisoned!"

"Hehehe." Xiao Cui smiled and walked towards the door. She turned her head and said to Liu Shuyao, "I'll go see what the prince is doing. Miss, just enjoy your 'special brew' in peace."

After she finished speaking, she brushed past Zhang Li with a subtle triumphant gesture, and at the end she didn't forget to add to her: "Thank you for your help, sister."

After saying that, he walked out of the room.

As she crossed the familiar threshold, a fresh and cool evening breeze blew towards her, gently ruffling her hair and seeming to gently brush away the dust and burdens in her heart.

At this moment, Xiao Cui seemed to be reborn.

Liu Shuyao's figure, along with the days when she was forced to compete for favor and serve Lin Zhen, all disappeared with the closed door behind her, becoming an old dream that could never be returned to.

I want to find Beichen and tell him everything about the turmoil in my heart and the entanglements of the past.

I want to tell him that from now on, I am willing to fill the gap left by Liu Shuyao with a complete and sincere heart, and love the man who was once out of her reach.

I believe there is a place for me in Beichen's heart.

After all, sincere emotions can always penetrate the barriers of people's hearts inadvertently and make two hearts depend on each other closely.

And I will eventually become an indispensable part of Beichen's life and be treated tenderly by him.

A soft laugh rose with the wind, like a ghost whispering in the night. Xiao Cui was feeling the coolness of the evening breeze and was startled by the sudden sound.

"Hehehehe."

"Sister Xiao Cui, I haven't seen you for a few days."

Xiao Cui looked in the direction of the voice and saw Qingwen holding a plate with a crystal glass of wine lying quietly on the plate. Her posture was very different from her usual liveliness and playfulness, and revealed an inexplicable coldness.

Behind Qingwen were Han Zhong and Huang Shu, their figures adding an unspeakable threat in the darkness.

Xiao Cui's heart suddenly tightened, her face instantly turned pale as paper, and she asked in a trembling voice, expressing her deep fear: "You...what are you going to do?!"

The corners of Qingwen's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a deep and complex smile. That smile, her signature charm, now seemed to Xiaocui like a cold winter wind, piercing through the bones and chilling the heart. She shuddered involuntarily, "What are you doing? Hahaha, the prince is treating you to a drink."

Xiao Cui's voice was filled with resentment and despair. She shouted hysterically: "No... I haven't done anything wrong, why do you want to poison me too!"

"Stop talking nonsense. Do you want to drink it yourself or should I feed you?" Qingwen was not as good-tempered as Zhang Li, and allowed Liu Shuyao to say a few words.

Now she only wanted to poison this woman to death quickly, and then go to Lin Zhen to take credit for it.

The prince said that as long as things are done well, he will give me an important task!

"No...no!!" Xiao Cui's voice was trembling. She shook her head desperately and rushed into the house.

Huang Shu was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He flashed to Xiao Cui's side. He grabbed her messy hair roughly and pulled her back without mercy.

"No! Please, let me go!" Xiao Cui cried out in despair. She struggled and tried to escape from the iron-like hands, but it was in vain.

Qingwen's face instantly darkened, her voice as cold as frost: "Don't refuse a toast and then drink a penalty!"

This sentence is very appropriate here.

Xiao Cui's tears fell like beads from a broken string. The excruciating pain in her scalp intertwined with the fear deep within her heart, nearly suffocating her. She burst into tears, her voice filled with pleading, "Wow, wow, wow... I beg you, please let me go... I won't dare to do it again... wow, wow..."

"Drink it down."

"Yes."

Huang Shu grabbed Xiao Cui's hair and pried open her mouth. Han Zhong didn't even look at her and just drank a glass of wine.

He didn't hesitate at all because she heard everything that was said in the room just now.

This woman and Liu Shuyao conspired to murder the prince of the palace, they really deserve to be killed!
