After rebirth, the scumbag prince only wants to pamper his wife every day
Chapter 158 How about postponing your wedding banquet for a few days?
late at night.
There was heavy rain with thunder and lightning.
In the courtyard of the Zhao family's main house.
A middle-aged man with a fat head, big ears and a belly as big as a gong was sleeping soundly with his mouth slightly open.
The deafening snoring occasionally mixed with the thunder outside, and was very loud and abrupt in the quiet night.
Beside him, a young woman with a pretty face and a beautiful figure, wearing a light green bellyband, clasped her hands in front of her chest, frowned, and pushed away the man's big hand that was around her waist anxiously and irritably.
The middle-aged man is Zhao Hongjun, the eldest son of the Zhao family, who is due to go to the Lin family to marry his new wife tomorrow.
The woman was the concubine he had just redeemed from a brothel.
These days, he was very interested in this woman and would spend the whole night with her almost every day to feel satisfied. Even though he was going to marry Lin Churan, the eldest daughter of the Lin family, he had no consciousness of being a husband at all.
The woman turned her head to look at Zhao Hongjun who was sleeping like a dead pig, and secretly spat at him, saying "dead face".
In the next room, there seemed to be a sound of something falling to the ground.
The woman was slightly startled.
She looked towards the side room with a dim gaze. She didn't see anything through the side door, but the window seemed not to be closed tightly.
When the wind and rain were strong, the doors and windows swayed in the dark night, making creaking sounds.
Lights flickered outside, and with the sound of thunder, it seemed to strike the woman's side. She frowned and called out to the door, "Someone come..."
There was silence outside the door.
The woman was silent for a moment, then called out again, "Who's on duty outside?"
There was still no movement outside.
The woman secretly cursed the night watchmen in her heart, guessing that they had probably gone off to hide away because the wind and rain were too strong.
She didn't think much about it, just put on her clothes, got out of bed, walked to the bedside, turned on the lamp, and slowly went to the ear room.
The wind was strong and the rain was heavy. As soon as she reached the ear room, the lamp in her hand went out.
The ear room suddenly became dark.
The only light was the occasional flashes of lightning coming in from the window. She was slightly annoyed and went forward in the wind and rain to close the window. At this moment, a bolt of lightning struck unexpectedly.
She was startled and at the same time she caught a glimpse of a wet footprint on the windowsill.
Her breathing became tight and her body trembled subconsciously.
A slender shadow was cast on the window screen from behind her. The person slowly approached her. Just as she was about to scream, she felt a pain on the back of her neck and fell to the ground in a daze, falling into darkness.
The figure in the darkness twitched his brows.
He reached out and dragged the person to the side of the ear room, then took out a bottle, opened it, took out a pill from it and stuffed it into the woman's mouth, then used skillful force to make her swallow it, then clapped his hands and walked slowly into the main room.
In the main house.
Zhao Hongjun seemed uneasy even in his sleep, as if someone was staring at him.
He muttered a few words, and in a daze reached out to grab his concubine who was sleeping beside him. His hand searched around the bed but couldn't find her. Zhao Hongjun was instinctively startled and suddenly opened his eyes.
Glancing sideways, he saw that his concubine was no longer on the bed, but rather a man in black clothes and wearing a white rabbit mask was standing about half a meter away from the bed.
His eyes suddenly widened, but before he could scream out in surprise, his mute point was pressed.
The man in black slowly leaned forward and approached. Zhao Hongjun dodged and retreated repeatedly, looking at the person in horror.
At this time.
The man in black spoke quietly, "How has Mr. Zhao been these past few days?"
His voice was low, yet somewhat shrill.
It doesn't sound like a man's voice, but it doesn't sound like a woman's voice either.
Zhao Hongjun opened his mouth, but because his acupoints were sealed, he could only shake his head in fear, as if he wanted to say something.
The man in black stared at him, slowly took out the small bottle from his arms, took out a pill with a strong medicinal aroma, stuffed it into his mouth, and forced him to swallow it.
Zhao Hongjun suddenly felt as if there were countless ants gnawing at him in his stomach.
The intense pain made him bend over.
The man in black glanced at him indifferently, then dragged him off the bed, patted his face, and said indifferently: "Master Zhao, I have something to tell you, but I am worried that I will unblock your acupoints. If you want to call for help, this is the only option. Don't worry, there is nothing important in the pill, just a rare medicine."
He didn't say what the medicine was, but Zhao Hongjun guessed it by feeling the pain in his body.
"Hey, don't look at me like that. I'm doing this for the good of both you and me, otherwise how could I do such a despicable thing as drugging you." The man in black had a fierce look on his face, and even though the other party couldn't see it, he could feel the solemnity in his eyes.
Zhao Hongjun stared at the man in black, and mist slowly filled his eyes.
The man in black curled his lips and said, "I'll untie your acupuncture points for you. Don't call for help, okay?"
Zhao Hongjun nodded in panic.
How dare he shout?
I am poisoned now.
The man in black did what he said and directly untied his acupoints. He quickly shook his head and waved his hands, asking the man in black what he wanted to do.
"Tomorrow is your wedding, right?" the man in black asked indifferently.
Zhao Hongjun paused, and a look of confusion slowly appeared in his eyes.
The man in black grabbed his collar and almost lifted him up, and said slowly: "My master has been in a bad mood these past two days, and really can't bear to see anyone happy at this time. Otherwise, how about you postpone your wedding banquet for a few days?"
Zhao Hongjun: “…”
Everyone else was dumbfounded.
He had seen arrogant people, but he had never seen someone at the foot of the imperial city who would not allow others to hold weddings just because he was in a bad mood. Did this person know who he was and whose mansion this was?
Seeing that he was dazed, the visitor kicked him.
Zhao Hongjun looked unhappy.
Considering the medicine he had just been forced to swallow, he did not dare to say more and only asked, "Then, what does your master mean?"
"It doesn't matter. Anyway, you can't get married tomorrow. Our master doesn't want to see you and Miss Lin happily get married and enter the bridal chamber. Master Zhao, you can do whatever you want."
The black-clad man's words were clear and concise, giving Zhao Hongjun enough room to think.
Whatever reason Zhao Hongjun wants to find to cancel tomorrow's wedding is up to him, and the man in black will not interfere.
"Then, then the medicine you just gave me..."
"Oh. I spent some time figuring it out. Generally, the pain will come every one or two hours. Don't worry, as long as you obey and temporarily cancel tomorrow's wedding banquet, you won't die.
My master will also arrange for someone to bring you some antidote from time to time.
But if you don’t obey, you’ll probably have a stomachache within a month.”
Zhao Hongjun: “…”
"Okay, I've finished what I need to do tonight, so I'm leaving first." The woman in black didn't care what Zhao Hongjun thought or did, she just swaggered out of the house.
When he reached the door, the man in black paused, glanced at the side room, and said in a low voice: "By the way, your concubine was about to close the window, but I knocked her out and left her in the side room. You can go and take a look. I'm leaving first..."
Zhao Hongjun: “…”
