On the wedding day, my wife was abnormal

Soon Chu Xiling fell unconscious again, making Lin Zhen think that the strange smile just now was an illusion.

Inside the Prince Regent's Palace, the atmosphere was so heavy that it seemed as if water could drip out.

Lin Zhen strode into the mansion with the unconscious Chu Xiling in his arms.

Behind them, Murong Yan, Sima Chunlei and Gu Zhen looked at each other and returned to the palace silently.

After all, no one in the mansion knew that Chu Xiling had put a curse on Lin Zhen, so it was suspicious for them to go in rashly.

As soon as he entered the palace, Lin Zhen ran straight to the bedroom.

In the room, Huanbi was sleeping on Lin Zhen's original bed. She woke up immediately when she heard the noise.

Seeing that it was Lin Zhen, she said, "Husband, why are you back? Who is this?"

Huanbi stood up and buttoned her clothes.

Lin Zhen put Chu Xiling on the bed and said to Huanbi, "Bi'er, find a few careful maids to help her bathe and take good care of her. I have something urgent to tell you later."

"Yes! Don't worry, my husband!" Huanbi nodded heavily, turned around and walked out to several clever maids and hurriedly ordered: "Quick, tell someone to boil water for bathing and prepare some new clothes."

"Yes!"

The maids agreed hurriedly and quickly prepared hot water, scented soap and other things.

Lin Zhen looked at Chu Xiling's face, which was as pale as paper, and a trace of pity and determination flashed in his eyes.

Then, he turned around abruptly and rushed towards Shangguan Wan'er's courtyard.

He had to make sure whether everything now was just a dream.

At this moment, the night was like a thick piece of black silk, wrapping up the entire palace. Everything was silent, and only Lin Zhen's hurried footsteps echoed on the stone road.

The courtyard where Shangguan Wan'er lived exuded a sense of tranquility and elegance in the night. The red lanterns at the gate of the courtyard swayed gently in the wind, casting a hazy glow.

Just as Lin Zhen was about to step forward, he saw two servants quickly step forward and block him with a bow: "My Lord, it's so late, what are you doing..."

"I want to see your young lady."

"Young Master, my lady said that you two cannot meet before the marriage. Moreover, it is already midnight, so I hope Young Master will respect himself." Although the servant's voice was somewhat respectful, it also revealed an unquestionable determination.

Lin Zhen was extremely anxious and had no time to worry about these red tape.

His brows were furrowed, his eyes so cold they looked as if frost could condense. "How dare you! Go tell Shangguan Wan'er to get dressed quickly. I must go in and see her today. This matter is of great importance. If anything goes wrong, I will kill all of you!"

The servants looked embarrassed and exchanged glances with each other.

After hesitating for a moment, he responded and turned around and walked quickly into the yard.

Inside the courtyard, Shangguan Wan'er was already fast asleep, lying on her side, her inky black hair loosely tied up, a few strands playfully draping around her jade-white neck. One arm rested gently on the quilt beside her, fingers slightly curled, as if even in her sleep she exuded a sense of laziness and tenderness.

Occasionally, the quilt would slide down to her waist, revealing her exquisite curves. She was wearing only a white undergarment as thin as a cicada's wing. The delicate dark patterns embroidered on the undergarment were faintly visible in the dim moonlight that filtered through the window, as if hiding countless affectionate thoughts.

The maid outside suddenly shouted loudly, shattering her sweet dream.

"Miss, wake up quickly!"

Shangguan Wan'er suddenly woke up, her eyes still a little sleepy: "What's wrong? You look so irritable."

"Miss, the prince is here. He said he has something urgent to discuss with you and he will kill us all if anything goes wrong!"

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Wan'er was horrified. She covered her lips with her bare hand and said in disbelief, "The prince has always been a polite man. How could he be so rude today? Have you heard what happened recently?"

"No, everything is normal. It was just that Master Lu was attacked when he was picking up his bride two days ago."

"That's strange. Stop crying and go get my hat."

"Ok!"

Shangguan Wan'er was influenced by etiquette since childhood and attached great importance to the traditional rules that couples cannot meet before marriage.

The maid brought a bamboo hat and Shangguan Wan'er tied it on her head. Before she could put on her clothes, there was a noise outside.

Immediately afterwards, the door was pushed open with a loud bang.

Shangguan Wan'er looked up in astonishment, only to see Lin Zhen striding in, with the servants following anxiously behind him, but not daring to actually stop him.

Lin Zhen's eyes were like burning flames, searching the room anxiously, and finally fixed on the woman standing beside the bed.

When Shangguan Wan'er saw Lin Zhen breaking in, she first raised her hands to cover herself in panic, and her hat swayed slightly.

She forced herself to calm down, bowed gracefully, and said in a voice filled with a hint of anger and grievance: "My Lord, it's so late, why did you disregard the rules and barge in?"

Lin Zhen seemed not to hear, his eyes were fixed on the bamboo hat, and his anxiety grew.

It seems that I am still dreaming, otherwise why would she wear a bamboo hat in the middle of the night?

"Take off your hat."

"Prince, you can tell me if you have something to say, but we cannot meet before marriage. Now we have broken the rules. Please..."

Lin Zhen wanted to break free from the dream now, and didn't care about any rules or etiquette.

Before Shangguan Wan'er could finish her words, he took a quick step forward, stretched out his arm swiftly, grabbed the tie of the hat and pulled it hard.

slam-la-

With his sudden movement, the white hat drew an arc in the air and landed gracefully on the ground.

In an instant, Shangguan Wan'er's stunningly beautiful face was revealed to Lin Zhen without reservation.

I saw that her eyebrows were as dark as distant black, like willow leaves stretching in the wind in spring; her eyes were like autumn water, clear and bright with agility and intelligence; her skin was as white as snow, and under the hazy light, it seemed to emit a warm luster, just as delicate and moving as mutton-fat jade.

This kind of appearance is exactly like Liu Shishi's cool, ethereal, gentle and charming charm.

Even though Lin Zhen was extremely anxious, he couldn't help but be stunned at this moment, and sighed in his heart: She is really as beautiful as a fairy.

He collected himself.

Could it be that I really woke up?

He was a little unsure, but Shangguan Wan'er's peerless beauty was clearly before his eyes.

For some reason, he let out a long sigh, then strode up to her and said, "Wan'er, I didn't mean to offend you in what happened today. It was an urgent matter...a matter of life and death."

Shangguan Wan'er nodded, and it was hard to tell whether it was a faint smile or relief, but in any case, she felt much better.

"The Crown Prince has always been steady and respectful to Wan'er. Wan'er knows that you didn't do anything intentional about what happened today, so she naturally won't blame the Crown Prince."

it is good.

A good and sensible girl.

She is worthy of being my, Lin Zhen’s, legal wife.

"Wan'er, thank you."

"You and I are about to be married, husband and wife are one, so why should we thank you? However, it is late tonight, and since the prince has already made certain decisions, Wan'er cannot keep you any longer."

Lin Zhen was a little puzzled: "Aren't you curious about something?"

"The prince is the pillar of the family. If you don't want to say more, Wan'er naturally shouldn't ask too much."

"Okay, then I'll tell you when the prince comes back."
