Cheng Fengyao was sitting on the bed, wearing her wedding dress, her hair combed, leaving only the hairpin and jewelry on.

She sat there with a blank look in her eyes, motionless, silent, and expressionless.

Cheng Guanghan stood on one side, and Mrs. Cheng watched at the door, secretly shedding tears - she really had no other choice but to cry.

What else could she do? Even if she loved her daughter, she still had to consider her son and the future of the Cheng family.

Cheng Shichuan frowned and looked at her: "If you want to cry, go outside and cry. Don't make trouble here."

Mrs. Cheng closed her eyes and swallowed her tears. How could she leave? She had raised this daughter from childhood and loved her till now. But she was going to get married tomorrow morning. It would be hard to see her again.

Cheng Guanghan ignored the situation here and glanced at the black-robed wizard behind him.

"Is this okay? Is she really stupid?"

The black-robed wizard, wearing a mask, said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, it won't happen. When the time comes, it will be undone and restored to its original state. By then, we have already entered the bridal chamber, and the matter is a foregone conclusion."

Cheng Guanghan thought for a moment and said, "In that case, will the man..."

What would the man think if the bride still looks like a wooden man when entering the bridal chamber?

Although the man is already an old man, the wedding night is still...

The black-robed wizard seemed to laugh, but it didn't sound real.

"It's okay, don't worry."

As to why it was okay and why there was no need to worry, he didn't say.

Cheng Guanghan didn't dare to ask any more questions.

He had seen this man's magical powers with his own eyes and did not dare to question or neglect them.

Forget it. By then I’ll have already prayed to heaven and earth and gotten married. As for the rest, I can’t care much about it.

Just bring the silver when you come to pick them up tomorrow and the Cheng family’s worries will be relieved.

As for the rest, it doesn’t matter.

After the black-robed wizard finished speaking, he turned and walked out. Madam Cheng wanted to go over to see Cheng Fengyao, but was stopped by Cheng Guanghan.

"Mother, you'd better not look at her. She doesn't know what's going on even if you look at her now. Why add to her sadness?"

"But……"

Mrs. Cheng wanted to say more, but when she saw the unhappy expressions of her husband and son, she had to stop.

The maids and servants left early, and Cheng Guanghan extinguished the candle, leaving Cheng Fengyao alone, sitting on the bed, facing the moonlight outside the window.

Everyone left, and she faced her shadow, motionless, like a wooden figure.

Just wait until tomorrow morning, with hairpins inserted in her head and a veil on her head, she will be taken away.

The next day, Jiang Tangli and Qi Dongqiang got up at daybreak. Princess Mingzhao also came. Beibei carried a small box and quickly put on some simple makeup for her and changed her clothes.

The three of them were all dressed neatly, including the things Yan Ruyu had given them yesterday.

Just as they were about to set off, Yan Ruyu arrived.

"Why are you up so early? Didn't we agree last night that you didn't have to get up early?"

"It's better to watch you go out, so I can feel more at ease."

Yan Ruyu checked their clothes and straightened Jiang Tangli's sleeves: "Especially you, don't be stubborn, you just come to watch the fun and experience something fun, don't get involved in anything else."

"come back earlier."

Jiang Tangli readily agreed: "Don't worry, sister, nothing will happen. I'll be back after watching the fun."

She patted her pockets. “I’m also carrying the snacks you gave me. I can eat when I’m bored. And no one can see my face when I’m wearing this.”

She wore her own clothes under the robe, and her pockets were filled with colorful chocolate beans, which were delicious.

Song Ping asked someone to drive the car. Yinding and the others were very familiar with each other. There was a happy event in the Cheng family today, and there were many people around. Who knew if there would be someone secretly watching and who could recognize them.

Safety first.

They left the house through a side door, got on a carriage before leaving the house, and got off when they were almost at their destination to prepare.

Yan Ruyu saw them off and watched the carriage go away.

Suddenly I felt a little regretful.

The Cheng family's pregnancy has nothing to do with the palace and should not have been involved.

Huo Changhe patted her shoulder gently: "Don't worry, nothing will happen. Although Miss Qi and the princess are not able to fight a hundred people alone, they are also good at it. Protecting Jiang Tangli is no problem."

Yan Ruyu nodded: "It should be."

"The streets will get lively later, and we can go out to see what's going on."

Although I'm not going to the Cheng family, the wedding procession is always there, and the streets are bustling for everyone to see.

It was still early, and Yan Ruyu was dragged back by Huo Changhe to take a nap. When she woke up, it was already bright.

"What's going on?" She got up immediately.

Huo Changhe had already washed up: "There's no movement on the street yet, let's have breakfast first, I'll go to the manor later, Xiang Guang and the others went there yesterday."

"Okay, I'll go too."

"If the place is almost clean, put the gold sand there."

Now the gold sand is still in her space. It needs to be smelted at the manor and will be released sooner or later.

After they had breakfast, Luhu and Linlang talked in the yard, and then they took the boss out with them.

The princess brought Luhu with her when she came, and left her behind when she went out, letting Linlang keep her company.

The eldest master drove the carriage and asked: "Princess, where are we going first?"

"Take Donghua Road, drive slowly, and look at the shops on both sides of the street."

"Yes."

Xia Miao from Liujiazhuang once mentioned that her "sister" ran a small spice shop on Donghua Road. The people sent by Huo Changhe secretly investigated twice but did not see any spice shop that met the requirements.

Yan Ruyu thought, if the spice shop was fake, then Donghua Road should be real. What she said was a mixture of truth and falsehood, and she had to try all kinds of combinations.

Although the method is stupid, it should be fruitful and will not alert the enemy.

If there is no result today, go to Qian's spice shop, find the owner and ask.

The Qian family shop is one of the best in every industry, and they know all the shops in the same industry like the back of their hands. As long as they are not too small, like a peddler pushing a cart with a load on his shoulder, they will accept it.

Walking slowly forward, Yan Ruyu lifted the curtain and looked out. Although Donghua Road was not a main road in the city, it was spacious and clean. It was also an old street with many shops on both sides. Most of them were doing good business. People were coming and going, and it was very lively.

Yan Ruyu's eyes swept across the shop.

"There is a spice shop in front, but it is not small. The secret guards went to investigate and said that the shopkeeper is a middle-aged man and there are not many women."

"The people around here haven't seen any lady boss, and the shop only has three employees."

Xia Miao once said that in her sister's shop, there were only her sister and her brother-in-law, and no clerks.

Apart from being a "spice shop," nothing else fits the description.

Yan Ruyu looked at the shop, which was indeed quite large. There was a waiter greeting customers in front of the door, another was busy, and the others were invisible.

"This shop is spacious and bright, with all doors open. The shop assistants are neatly dressed and have clear eyes. They don't look like people who are treacherous or secretive."

Huo Changhe agreed: "Indeed."

"Then it shouldn't be this one."

Some things can be faked, but others cannot, such as aura.
