Pei Wuji's expression changed drastically, and he rushed into the bridal chamber to lift the bride's veil.

The palace maid sent to supervise the wedding ceremony changed her expression drastically and hurriedly tried to dissuade him: "Your Highness, you mustn't! This has to wait until tonight, on your wedding night..."

Before she could finish speaking, Pei Wuji pushed her away.

"Get out of my way. Anyone who blocks my path will be killed without mercy."

At this moment, he had shed his former image as a humble and gentle gentleman.

The old woman was startled and quickly stepped aside.

Pei Wuji suddenly ripped off the bride's veil and saw a face that was both unfamiliar and somewhat familiar.

This person is neither Yu Ningyao nor his original fourth prince's wife, Shen Qingyun.

"Who are you?!" Pei Wuji drew his sword and pointed it at the bride in front of him.

The bride, Feng Ting, calmly replied, "I am Feng Ting, the female official of the Cloud Dragon."

"You plotted against me?" Pei Wuji's chest heaved with anger, and he drew his sword to stab her.

Feng Ting was not a weak woman who could not even kill a chicken.

Besides being able to control beasts, she was also quite skilled with her legs.

She dodged Pei Wuji's attack with a quick movement and kicked the sword in his hand.

Pei Wuji felt a numbness in his wrist and looked at the woman in shock.

She's incredibly strong!

If he hadn't just grabbed the sword, it probably would have been kicked away.

“!@%……¥%*&” A melodious tune rang out from Feng Ting’s mouth.

"What do you want to do?" Pei Wuji's expression changed.

He knew the woman was summoning animals, but he didn't know which animals she would bring.

Feng Ting didn't answer, but instead leaped from the table onto the crossbeam.

The melody in her mouth never stopped.

The crowd was a mix of panic and anticipation, wondering what kind of animal would appear.

Before long, a huge flock of bats flew down from the sky.

Everyone was immediately horrified. The sky was almost completely covered by this huge swarm of bats, and the Fourth Prince's residence had become pitch black. The people who came to attend the wedding banquet were almost driven crazy with fright.

Such strange phenomena suggest that the Fourth Prince may have committed some evil deed, thus incurring divine punishment.

Pei Wuji looked at the pavilion on the crossbeam with a livid face.

"Stop! Make them leave immediately!!!"

“No problem.” Feng Ting agreed and then chased the bats away.

The Fourth Prince's residence saw the light of day again.

Pei Wuyang pursed his lips and looked her over, not expecting her to be so obedient.

He told her to remove the bats, and she actually did as he said.

Feng Ting saw the doubt in his eyes and smiled slightly: "We have already bowed to heaven and earth, and from now on I will be the Fourth Prince's Consort. Doesn't your Xiang Kingdom value the husband and wife following each other? Isn't it normal for me to listen to you?"

"What exactly is your purpose?" Pei Wuyang gradually calmed down and chased all the servants out of the room.

"I just want to be a good Fourth Prince's consort," Feng Ting replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Do you think I would believe that?" Pei Wuyang sneered.

It seems he went astray at some point, letting Yun Chubai know about his plan to switch the bride ahead of time.

Yun Chubai played along, going along with his wishes and letting him switch the two brides.

No wonder he always felt that the previous personnel change on the bridge went exceptionally smoothly.

It turns out that someone else was secretly stirring things up.

"If the Fourth Prince doesn't believe me, there's nothing I can do. After all, we've already paid our respects to heaven and earth and are now husband and wife." Feng Ting remained calm and composed.

Pei Wuyang was so angry he was about to vomit blood, but he still couldn't lay a hand on her.

She can summon bats; who knows if she has any other tricks up her sleeve?

"I am going to the palace. You will come with me," he commanded coldly.

"Okay." Feng Ting looked obedient.

The two of them, still dressed in their wedding attire and without changing their clothes, headed straight for the palace.

The prince's wedding caused such a huge misunderstanding that he must admit his guilt.

Even if he orchestrated this whole thing, he has to quickly distance himself from it.

He must be innocent in this matter.

……

Shen Qingyun was sent back to the Shen family.

When Minister of Rites Shen Qiong and his wife saw their daughter being returned in her wedding dress, completely intact, they were so shocked they almost fainted.

Didn't they say the Fourth Prince had already completed the wedding ceremony? What's going on? Why send his daughter back?

"Pei Wuyang is going too far! What does he mean by sending Qingyun home?!" Shen Qiong cursed angrily.

"Waaah, my poor Qingyun!" Madam Shen cried anxiously, wiping away her tears.

The people who brought her back left so quickly that they didn't give them a chance to question her.

"Send someone to the Fourth Prince's residence to find out what exactly happened," Shen Qiong said angrily, but he still made arrangements in an orderly manner.

Then, he sent someone to fetch a doctor.

Upon learning that Shen Qingyun was unharmed and had simply been knocked unconscious, they breathed a sigh of relief.

Fearing that something bad had happened to her, Madam Shen specially invited an experienced nanny to examine her body.

Upon learning that Shen Qingyun was still a virgin, the couple breathed a sigh of relief.

At least things haven't gotten to the worst point yet.

Not long after, the servant that Minister Shen had sent returned.

"It's terrible, sir! The Fourth Prince and his consort have gone to the palace to apologize. Apparently, there was a commotion when they were crossing the Qing Shi Bridge, and the two brides got into the wrong sedan chairs, which caused this misunderstanding."

"What?" Shen Qiong and his wife exclaimed in surprise at the same time.

"Then the current Fourth Prince's consort is Princess Ning'an?" Shen Qiong pressed.

The servant shook his head: "I heard it's not her, she looks very unfamiliar. Besides, didn't Princess Ning'an ride a tiger out of the city?"

When he said that, the Shen couple remembered.

Yu Ningyao had just married while riding a tiger not long ago, so it couldn't have been her who entered the palace with Pei Wuji.

"Who exactly is it?" Shen Qiong pondered.

"So after the mistake, Qingyun was sent to Crown Prince Yunchi. But Crown Prince Yunchi noticed something was wrong and sent her back to us?" Madam Shen guessed the truth.

“Very likely.” Shen Qiong nodded.

Mrs. Shen felt both heartbroken and relieved.

The sad thing is that Prince Yunchi didn't like his daughter and sent her back like that. In the future, when it comes to marriage, it will be difficult for anyone to be willing to marry a girl who has been in a bridal sedan chair.

Fortunately, my daughter doesn't have to marry far away to Yunchi, nor does she have to become someone's concubine.

"I want to go to the palace too." Shen Qiong immediately ordered someone to change him into official robes.

The Shen family is also the aggrieved party in this matter, and their grievances must be made known to the Emperor.

Moreover, now that the Fourth Prince's wife has become someone else, what will happen to their daughter?

……

Emperor Xiangwu never expected that Pei Wuji could make a mistake on such an important day.

"You can even get a bride wrong?" Emperor Xiangwu was furious.
