The capital city of Xiliang Kingdom——

In the early morning, Qi Wang's mansion was as cold and silent as ever.

There are no flowers in the garden.

The pond is only half stagnant with no fish.

The cobwebs in the corner of the wall can gather a person.

Those who didn't know thought it was abandoned by an official who had committed a heinous crime.

Who would have thought that it was the residence of the third prince, King Qi.

But Qi Wang Mansion was finally lively today.

Before dawn, the servants of the mansion hung two red lanterns and red flower silk and satin on the gate, and two characters of Double Happiness were pasted on the lanterns.

A look is a happy event.

After the early risers saw it, within half an hour, the news spread to the entire capital.

It's really a big girl sitting in a sedan chair-the first time.

But today I can really see the big girl sitting in the bridal sedan chair.

Everyone who passed by looked inside the gate a few more times.

It can be seen that the inside is busier than before, and the servants are busy cleaning up and down the mansion and arranging the wedding banquet.

Not to mention a lot of cleanliness, after hanging up various festive items, it is more lively than the New Year.

But today's protagonist didn't have a trace of joy on his face.

In the east wing.

The man sits with his eyes closed.

Wearing a bright red brocade gown with black border and gold embroidery, with unicorn patterns embroidered with gold silk on it, and a jade belt around the waist, it makes a man look noble and natural.

Xiao Yishu sat with his eyes closed, and a few servant girls waited for him to get dressed neatly before retreating out.

Meng Butler next to him was still discussing the many red tapes in getting married.

Hearing this, Xiao Yishu felt upset.

Butler Meng still had a lot of etiquette to say, so he saw Xiao Yishu waving at him.

"No need to talk too much, keep everything simple, let everyone stop messing around, it's almost done."

Butler Meng wanted to say something, but received a stern look from King Qi.

He has been a housekeeper in Qiwang's mansion for many years, knowing Qiwang's temper, he silenced himself.

Although King Qi always had an attitude of being indifferent to world affairs, he didn't care about the affairs of the court.

Tease the birds and play with the crickets every day.

It's not easy to meet a happy event, but I don't see him happier.

Instead of the usual dead face like a pool of stagnant water, his face was replaced by a dark face as if seeing an enemy.

The butler felt that Qi Wang was eager to have a happy event or a funeral.

Butler Meng retreated wisely.

Only Xiao Yishu was left in the room.

At this time, a black shadow flashed in from the half-open window, kneeling in front of Xiao Yishu.

On the left side of his face, there is a penetrating scar across his left eye, which prevents his left eye from opening.

Chu Yun has been Xiao Yishu's personal bodyguard for many years.

When he met the bandits, Chu Yun's left eye was cut off and he was blinded, so he failed to protect Xiao Yishu.

Feeling guilty for this, he followed him with sincerity all these years.

"Your Highness, the assassin has been arranged," Chu Yun said.

"Yeah." Xiao Yishu still closed his eyes, sat upright, playing with the jade wrench on his left thumb with his right hand, lost in thought.

Chu Yun waited for Xiao Yishu to order the next move, but saw that he had not spoken.

Chu Yun was not too happy about this assassination plan.

After all, he couldn't help persuading him: "Your Highness, do you really want to do this? The other party is the daughter of Yipin Hou Dong Shengrong, if it is pursued..."

"Then kill her on the sedan chair." Xiao Yishu said casually.

It seems as insignificant as just killing an ant.

Only Chu Yun has seen such a cold-blooded and ruthless side of his master.

Xiao Yishu took a sip of warm tea unhurriedly, holding the teacup firmly in his hand without any trembling.

He also said: "Dong Shengrong didn't dote on his only daughter as much as the outsiders said. In fact, he was very patriarchal. Otherwise, how could he give his daughter to the prince? I didn't expect that sending her to the prince would not be a princess, so she got it in my mansion. Come up, the moment the Queen Mother bestowed the marriage, he gave up on this daughter, who wants a lame man to be his son-in-law, don’t you think so?”

Xiao Yishu teased himself, and pinched the flesh of his thigh with his hand on his thigh.

unconscious.

Speaking of His Royal Highness King Qi, he is the only one among the seven princes who has a mansion outside the palace, and he lives a simple life.

The other brothers and emperors fought to the death in the palace.

He occasionally showed his face in court, and when he showed up, he didn't say a word.

Going up to court is like visiting a garden, just go for a walk.

If His Majesty doesn't say anything about him, the ministers of course dare not object.

With such no sense of existence, he became the most unfavorable prince in Xihua Kingdom, and the least likely to ascend to the throne.

There is another reason that makes him unable to touch the seat of the emperor.

That is, he is a cripple who cannot walk.

The cause was that when he was ten years old, he was plotted against by gangsters and was poisoned. He managed to save his life, but he could no longer stand up.

In the past, the emperor almost became the crown prince because the third prince possessed extraordinary intelligence.

If I hadn't thought about it before, I would be useless.

Who would choose a crippled cripple to be the king of a country?

Let him have the root of wisdom again, even if the emperor allows it, the people will not.

After all, it is his own seed, the emperor is also a mortal father, seeing his son become crippled, he will inevitably feel uncomfortable.

Whatever he wants he does his best.

The third prince had no desires and desires, he disliked the noise in the palace, there were too many rules, and wanted to live outside the palace, the emperor agreed without saying a word.

So the third prince chose a quiet mansion in the capital.

If the emperor gave him an official position in the court, he would not be left in vain.

How many people would not wish to be able to live 80 to [-] years in such peace and prosperity.

After leaving the palace, the third prince lived in seclusion.

If it wasn't for the fact that he was still in the capital, he would have thought that he had entered some deep mountain and old forest to live in seclusion.

Today's marriage was pointed out by the Queen Mother and her elders.

The old man is kind and compassionate, especially for his grandson who cannot walk.

Seeing that Xiao Yishu had reached the age of marrying a wife and was alone every day, he thought of arranging for him a daughter from a good family.

Having a pair of children, accompanied by a wife and children, and thinking about it more, will make you happier.

Just when the queen mentioned the daughter of the Dong family, the queen mother immediately pulled the red line.

Xiao Yishu just sits at home, and the marriage comes from heaven.

Only Xiao Yishu knew clearly.

The daughter of the Dong family has long been the queen's pawn.

Miss Dong's family knew that she was not valued by her father, so she always hugged one thigh.

The queen deliberately mentioned the Dong family's daughter in front of the queen mother, and asked the Dong family's daughter to marry into Qi Wang's mansion.

Sleeping next to Xiao Yishu, so as to be her informant and monitor Xiao Yishu.

Xiao Yishu is extremely intelligent and has emerged since he was a child.

Even if he is a useless person now, the queen is still wary of him and keeps an eye on his movements.

Of course Xiao Yishu couldn't do what they wanted, so he arranged for a killer to lurk and create an assassination.

Let the bride die if she can't enter King Qi's mansion, and suffer a little injury by the way, so that the marriage can fall through.

Butler Meng sent a message outside the door: "His Royal Highness, the wedding reception team is coming soon, and His Highness is going out to welcome the bride."

Xiao Yishu waved his hand.

Chu Yun walked behind Xiao Yishu and pushed Xiao Yishu out.

Xiao Yishu straightened the fabric of the brocade robe that was crumpled on his thighs, and said: "Anyway, don't let her enter the door before doing anything, so as not to dirty my place. She had an accident on the road. Turn around and tell the Queen Mother that my life is worthless." , doomed to no blessings.”

Chu Yun nodded in agreement.

Outside the palace gate.

Xiao Yi calmly sat on the wheelchair, tapping the armrest of the chair lightly with his fingers.

Suona and cymbals can be heard in the distance, getting closer and closer.

Chu Yun standing behind him was on high alert, so that the assassins lurking in the dark could attack.

The others were completely unaware of their plan, and were busy preparing for the third concubine who was about to enter the door.

At the end of the street, a procession to pick up the bride has been seen.

Although the Dong family didn't value this daughter very much, the Empress Dowager pointed out that she was married, so the show should not be sloppy.

Coupled with the sight of the surrounding people in the capital, it is so shabby that it makes people laugh.

Dong Shengrong cares about face, and spent a lot of money to create momentum for the scene.

Eight large sedan chairs are indispensable, and the long line behind is full of dowry items.

Because of this battle, Dong Shengrong's heart ached.

Xiao Yishu looked at the big red sedan chair in the procession, his eyes were always cold.

I don't look forward to what my wife who is about to marry will look like.

He doesn't care about a dying person.

When Chu Yun was about to inform the assassin in the dark.

Suddenly there was a gust of wind.

The door curtain of the sedan chair was blown up, and half of the bride's body could be seen inside.

Inside, the bride was sitting upright, wearing a red wedding dress, with many gold and jade ornaments hanging on her neck and wrists.

Normal bridal attire.

Xiao Yishu's eyes were sharp, and he saw something abnormal.

It's just that the bride's body is stronger than ordinary women.

The wind poured into the sedan chair, blowing the bride's red hijab.

Xiao Yishu happened to see this scene.

At that moment, Xiao Yishu, who had been keeping calm all this time, suddenly froze.

The light fingers on the armrest of the chair stopped suddenly, and he clenched his fist.

He saw the face under the red hijab.

There is no delicate makeup between the eyebrows, face and lips, but it is even more beautiful than a woman.

It's not like the appearance that ordinary people can have.

It is not holy to say it is a fairy, but it is much simpler to say it is a ghost.

Chu Yun behind him made a move.

Xiao Yishu immediately stopped him: "Chu Yun! Slow down."

Chu Yun took back the small stone that was about to be thrown from his fingertips in time: "Your Highness?"

Xiao Yishu said: "Let's get out, let her in."

Chu Yun was surprised: "Your Highness, why... are you planning to..."

Xiao Yishu snorted, revealing the first smile of the day: "Suddenly I feel a little funny, I can let this person in to play."

Play?Could it be that Qi Wang, who was planning to die alone forever, has taken a fancy to him?

Chu Yun was puzzled, wondering why his master suddenly changed so quickly.

So is this person to kill or not to kill?

Is it to kill people after playing?

At that time, the welcoming team had already stopped in front of the gate.

According to the custom, the groom will go to the sedan chair and lead the bride out.

But on the door steps, Xiao Yishu didn't intend to move.

Seeing Butler Meng's wink, Xi Niang understood.

Xixi said a few auspicious words, then reached into the sedan chair to sign the bride out.

From the sedan chair stretched out a hand with creamy skin, with slender knuckles and distinct phalanges.

Several bracelets on the wrists shook and jingled.

Holding the bride's hand, the bride slowly stepped out of the sedan chair.

When I took the first step, my foot suddenly sprained.

The bride supported the sedan chair just in time to hold it steady, and did not fall down in front of everyone, but it made a lot of noise.

Xiao Yishu looked at the bride's body.

A bright red wedding dress was obviously ill-fitting, and the length of the skirt only reached the ankle.

Looking down, I saw the feet of the bride's skirt.

The feet and the embroidered shoes do not fit well at first glance. The heel protrudes a lot from the outside of the shoes, and of course it is unstable to walk.

Because this almost fell, the bride became angry, so she took the sedan chair to vent her anger.

Turning around, he kicked the bridal sedan door hard, making a loud bang.

This bride is a bit grumpy.

Everyone saw the funny scene in their eyes, but saw Qi Wang's indifferent expression, and forced their smiles back into their stomachs.

Embarrassed, Xi Niang hurriedly said auspicious words: "Kick the sedan chair today, and the baby will fall to the ground next year."

bride:"……"
