Chapter 88

Xie Wan Ning was shocked that someone would talk about the position of crown prince so bluntly.

"Don't worry," Concubine Shu smiled and said, "If you have to be careful of eavesdropping in your own bedroom, it's better for you not to be a concubine of this rank."

When the emperor was still the crown prince, she was already the Consort of the Eastern Palace. She had been fighting with the women in the harem for most of her life. If she hadn't had some tricks up her sleeve, she would have been swallowed up by the deep palace without leaving a bone behind.

In fact, Xie Wan Ning was not very close to this aunt. She seldom came to the palace. She was invited to live with her for a period of time when she was young.

At that time, Shufei was only a concubine. Although the eldest prince was born, he was still far from becoming the crown prince. She planned to let her niece from her natal family marry the eldest son. However, Xie Shu and Zheng only had one daughter, and they loved her like a treasure. They were not willing to let her marry into the royal family.

Later, Xie Wan Ning and Lu Ziyan got engaged. This marriage was also helped by the eldest prince, so Concubine Shu gave up the idea of ​​strengthening the relationship.

But after that, in order to avoid suspicion, Xie Wan Ning rarely went to the palace.

Now that she thought about it, Lu Ziyan might also know about these past events. In the dream, he was extremely reluctant to invite her into the palace, and even had a sullen face and told her to stay away from Concubine Shu and the eldest prince.

But by then she had already begun to feel cold towards him, and there was only annoyance between them as they sat together, and they only argued with each other whenever they sat together.

Hearing his rude request, she certainly refused to comply.

Later on, Lu Ziyan even confined her to her home and wouldn't even let her go out.

Everything in the dream was vivid in Xie Wan Ning's mind. He smiled bitterly in his heart. They were really a pair of resentful lovers.

…………

The aunt and nephew were chatting in harmony in Yanxiang Palace, but at Wuyuan Marquis Mansion, there had been chaos since last night.

Lu Ziyan was lying on the bed with his upper body naked and covered with a thin blanket, his eyes closed, his lips pale, and sweat on his forehead.

He has been unconscious since he came back last night, mumbling nonsense. He only calls out "Wanwan" from time to time, letting people know that he is calling Xie Wanning.

The ex-fiancée who is now someone else’s wife.

Looking at her grandson who was covered in wounds and in such a miserable state, Mrs. Lu felt distressed.

The old man, leaning on a crutch and supported by his two daughters-in-law, stood tremblingly beside the bed, shedding tears, "What an injustice, what an injustice."

I felt a little resentful towards Xie Wan Ning who got married in a hurry.

How could there be such a cruel girl? She seemed so affectionate and loyal before, but she broke up so decisively and got married in the blink of an eye without giving anyone a chance to redeem the relationship.

Madam Lu complained about Xie Wan Ning just as much as her mother-in-law did, but the most important thing at the moment was her son's injury.

She looked at several imperial doctors and asked anxiously, "How is it? Is my son in serious trouble?"

Several doctors discussed the matter for a while, and one of them said, "The prince's injuries are not serious. They are just minor skin injuries. They have been bandaged. With his physical condition, he will be able to recover in a few days."

Madam Lu asked, "Why hasn't he woken up yet?"

"...This," the imperial physician hesitated, "maybe his mind has been hit hard, and he has the thought of escaping, so he is unwilling to wake up for a while."

"When the prince figures it out, he will naturally wake up."

Several imperial doctors wrote out the prescription and started to boil the medicine. They had received the imperial decree last night. As long as Lu Ziyan was unconscious, they could not leave the Lu family for the time being.

And Lu Ziyan is having a nightmare at this moment.

A dream in which he couldn't see the scenes, but could feel the tragedy for no reason.

It's like merging into another person's senses and being disturbed by their emotions.

He frowned, and felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, so cold that his heart shivered continuously.

Desolation, dead silence, and dense fear...

Hazy, many scenes flashed before his eyes, some he had experienced and some unfamiliar.

These images flashed by and he could hardly distinguish them, but his chaotic thoughts gradually became clear.

He calmed himself down and watched despite the heavy pain in his heart. He felt as if he saw another world.

The story begins with an eyeful of red; it's a wedding.

The girl holding an apple in the wedding sedan was his Wanwan.

The man in wedding clothes sitting on the tall horse was himself.

Lu Ziyan was stunned, and the inexplicable sadness in his heart suddenly dissipated, and he was ecstatic.

It turns out that in this world, he married Wanwan as he wished.

Red candles are lit on the wedding night.

In the bridal chamber, the pretty and bright little girl rubbed her belly and complained to the two maids, "Why hasn't Brother Zi Yan come back yet? I'm so hungry."

Although she complained, her eyes were sparkling, showing how happy she was in her heart.

She was very happy to marry herself.

Lu Ziyan's heart was burning with desire and he wanted to go over and hug her, but he couldn't touch her. He could only stay with her in the new house and wait for the other self to come back.

He waited until the red candle was half burned and his girl fell on the bed frame under the weight of the phoenix crown before his other self finally arrived.

Lu Ziyan looked a little cold. When he heard that she didn't have dinner, he asked the servants to bring wine and food, but other than that, he didn't show any extra leniency or kindness.

Lu Ziyan looked at her in a daze. Was this how he looked in front of her before?

Obviously like, obviously care about, but reluctant to show the affection in the heart.

He was certain that she liked him and would always like him, and he just needed to accept that she was by his side.

But the girl was obviously very aggrieved. Her husband, who had waited for a long time on her wedding night, still had a cold look on his face.

She had her meal alone, then washed up slowly. By the time she had wrung her hair dry, the red candle had burned halfway. The man on the couch was getting a little impatient, and as soon as she approached, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her onto the bed.

The lips dropped instantly.

How does it feel to see another self being intimate with the one you love?
Lu Ziyan frowned and wanted to try to return to his body, but finally gave up in anger.

The girl on the couch seemed to be in pain and pushed him away desperately.

Lu Ziyan's eyes turned red with anger, and she wished she could stab the man on her to death.

Fortunately, he still had some humanity and finally slowed down his actions.

Their first night together ended abruptly.

He didn't continue, but Lu Ziyan knew himself and knew that it was actually very hard for him to endure.

Although his actions showed that he was concerned about others, his face was still stern.

The little girl shed tears, but he didn't try to comfort her or hug her. He even frowned and stood away from her.

She felt even more aggrieved, and her temper flared up. She reached out and pinched his arm, "Why are you so fierce!"

Lu Ziyan pursed his lips and pressed her into his arms, telling her in a hoarse voice to behave herself.

She didn't know and he had no experience.

It was all thanks to my self-control that I managed to hold back from wanting her just once on my wedding night.

He didn't dare hold her for too long. In order to divert attention, the man on the couch actually mentioned other women on his wedding night.

He said that in a few days, he would bring Liu Manrou home as his concubine.

Lu Ziyan has already experienced how much the little girl cares about this, he really wants to rush up and slap himself twice and tell him to shut up!
