Li City, the 10th day of December.
Today in Li City, everywhere is adorned with bright red lanterns that signify joy. As night falls, from a distance, the sea of red lanterns winds like a river, shimmering with light in the darkness.
At the Governor's Residence, Yun Shuyan stands quietly in the pavilion of the back garden, dressed in festive attire, allowing the cold wind to whip against his face like a knife.
His pale face shows no trace of color, and paired with the bright red wedding garments, he appears strikingly eerie.
A rustle of leaves announces the arrival of a tall man who stands behind him.
He does not turn around; his gaze instantly becomes as cold as frost. "Is everything ready?"
"Ready, but... should we inform Consort Crown Prince first?" The man hesitates, seeking his opinion.
"No one can reveal a word in front of her! Otherwise, there will be no mercy!" His expression changes, and a chilling murderous intent rises on his frail face, transforming his gentle demeanor into something steely.
"Understood!" The subordinate quickly retreats upon receiving the order.
His expression gradually relaxes as he gazes toward the "Listening to Snow Pavilion" beside the back garden. There, the sea of lights gathers into one, with maids coming and going incessantly.
Thinking about her soon becoming his bride, a gentle smile involuntarily curves his lips. He does not want those scheming matters to taint her. If tonight's plan succeeds, then she will be his one and only wife.
If they lose, let this sea of dim lights compose a dirge for them!
This is the biggest gamble of his life; he absolutely cannot afford to lose!
Without a moment's hesitation, he stepped forward with determination, walking step by step toward the front courtyard.
The wedding banquet is about to begin!
Inside the Listening to Snow Pavilion, Gu Yuniang allowed a group of maids to finish dressing her up. After dismissing everyone, she quietly stayed alone in the room.
Her husband is the Crown Prince, so there are no tedious customs from the common folk to follow, and in this environment, all court etiquette is also exempted. All she needs to do is quietly wait in the bridal chamber for her husband!
She couldn't help but smile bitterly; she might be the most impoverished Consort Crown Prince in history. This winter is particularly cold, and even while holding a small heater in her hands, she still trembles from the chill.
As she was lost in thought, suddenly there was a "whoosh..." and the entire room fell into darkness.
Gu Yuniang stood up in panic and ran toward the door. After just a few steps, she fell into a hard embrace as if it were made of iron. She felt as if she had been electrocuted and froze in place.
The familiar scent made her heart ache and want to cry! Is it him?
"Who... are you?" she trembled as she leaned against him, completely forgetting to move.
The person in the darkness did not speak, but the cold, bloodthirsty aura emanating from him enveloped her. Gu Yuniang's heart sank; she quickly regained her senses and tried to break free from this unfamiliar man!
This is not him! Absolutely not!
The man seemed to have sensed her movements, quickly trapping her in his embrace. Then, he lifted her and strode toward the bed.
