What's going on? Bai Yao was a little confused. The bride came out of the bridal chamber to chase after the groom?
Shang Shuqing and Lan Ruoting, who heard the commotion and ran into the courtyard, were also stunned. Shang Chaozong who was barefooted and only wore a pair of pants ran out naked?
What made Shang Shuqing even more shocked was that Feng Ruonan, who was chasing after him like a crazy demon, ran out dressed like this? Barefooted, a pair of snow-white calves were occasionally revealed under her skirt. She didn't seem to be wearing any pants, and the half-exposed snow-white skin under her collar … Shang Shuqing couldn't believe it. To her, simply showing her arms in front of others was a matter of losing her chastity. How could a woman run out naked like this?
She couldn't imagine if her parents were still alive and saw this daughter-in-law, would they go crazy? Her father would probably give the order to shoot her dead!
Lan Ruoting was also dumbfounded. Feng Ruonan's behavior went against his concept of a woman's virtue in this era. It was hard for him to imagine that the daughter of a wealthy family like the Feng Clan could be like this. Unimaginable!
Shang Chaozong ran while looking back. He wasn't even a match for her with his bare hands, let alone with a weapon. He immediately sped up and ran!
"Shameless dog thief, don't run, hand over your life!" Feng Ruonan, who was chasing from behind, screamed.
The cultivators on the rooftops were speechless when they saw this scene.
Bai Yao, who had returned to his senses, quickly dashed out and pounced down from the sky. Feng Ruonan, who heard the sound of the wind, turned her head and swung her sword. She didn't even care that Bai Yao was on her side. Bai Yao shook the scabbard in his hand, and with a swoosh, the empty scabbard sheathed the sword that was slashing at him. He reached out and grabbed Feng Ruonan's shoulder, forcibly locking Feng Ruonan on the spot. He said in a deep voice, "Ruonan, stop messing around!" He then removed the scabbard and snatched the sword from Feng Ruonan's hand.
"Let me go! Let me go! I want to kill him, I want to kill him … "Feng Ruonan struggled hysterically. Her eyes were red, and her gaze towards Shang Chaozong was filled with tears as she stared at Shang Chaozong.
Bai Yao frowned. "Ruonan, what's wrong?"
Feng Ruo Nan gritted her teeth, "Despicable and shameless person!"
Seeing that she did not say what had happened, Bai Yao roughly guessed something. It was probably something that she did not want to do. He did not know whether to laugh or cry. You are already married to him. It is normal for that kind of thing to happen. Why would you kill him for that? It wouldn't be justified anywhere in the world!
However, he also felt that it was strange. When they fought last night, didn't they have the upper hand and didn't let others intervene no matter what? If you are unwilling, what can they do to you? Could it be that he fell asleep at the back and was … He didn't have to underestimate his opponent, right?
If she didn't say it out loud, Bai Yao wouldn't be able to ask about what happened in the bridal room. He turned around and signaled to Wen Xin and Wen Li who had lost their heads out of fear. It was inappropriate to let Feng Ruonan stand outside like this. He cast a technique to forcefully drag Feng Ruo Nan back.
Rushing to the door, Shang Chaozong, who was covered by Lan Ruoting, Shang Shuqing and a few guards at the door, heaved a sigh of relief. He had never been so embarrassed in his entire life.
Seeing that Feng Ruo Nan was restrained, Lan Ruoting turned around. Seeing that Shang Chaozong's image was a little unsightly, he immediately asked the guards on night duty to remove their cloaks and draped them over Shang Chaozong. One of the guards even took off his boots and lent them to Shang Chaozong to cover his disgraceful appearance.
Lan Ruoting and Shang Shuqing quickly escorted Shang Chaozong back to their own courtyard.
On the way, Lan Ruoting tried to ask, "Prince, could it be that you succeeded?" He had obviously noticed something.
This matter made it a little hard for Shang Chaozong to talk about, so he nodded his head and admitted it. However, seeing that his sister was by his side, he couldn't say anything. After all, his sister was still an unmarried girl.
He nodded his head. Shang Shuqing's face had already turned red, but he was also puzzled in his heart. Feng Ruo Nan was obviously unwilling, how could she let her brother succeed?
Returning to their own courtyard, Lan Ruoting asked Shang Chaozong to enter the house and change his clothes first.
Shang Chaozong coughed dryly, "Mister, come in for a moment."
Lan Ruoting subconsciously glanced at Shang Shuqing. He could hear the meaning of avoiding Shang Shuqing in his words. He didn't know what else he needed to hide from Shang Shuqing, but he still nodded his head and followed them in.
Seeing that the door was closed, Shang Shuqing also felt his brother's intention to avoid him, so he took the initiative to leave.
Inside the house, Shang Chaozong found his clothes and slowly put them on. His brows were constantly furrowed, and it was obvious that he had something on his mind. Lan Ruoting waited by the side.
After changing, Shang Chaozong placed both his hands on the table, lowered his head, and remained silent for a long time before saying in a muffled voice, "Mister, this matter is a little strange."
Lan Ruoting slowly walked to his side and asked, "What do you mean?"
Shang Chaozong: "Last night, I was actually restrained by Feng Ruo Nan. Later, when I saw that her arm strength was gradually loosening, I thought that she had used up most of her strength, so I suddenly broke free and hit her. After that … that happened! After that, I also thought that she had accepted her fate. However, just before that, she seemed to have regained her energy and began to scold me, saying that I had drugged her … You saw what happened after that. "
"Drugged?" Lan Ruoting was bewildered, "Are you sure?"
Shang Chaozong muttered, "Last night, I was angered by that woman and didn't pay attention to it. Now that I think about her situation last night, it is indeed a little abnormal. She was lively before, but later … later on, she was at the mercy of others. There is indeed something fishy about this matter. I'm afraid what she said is most likely true." He slowly turned his head and asked tentatively, "Wasn't it done by our side?"
Lan Ruoting hurriedly waved his hand and said sternly, "How could we do such a despicable thing? Besides, all the food and drinks here are all prepared by the people sent by the governor's mansion. We are worried that they might have done something. As for the bridal chamber, we didn't do it. It's impossible that we did it."
Shang Chaozong smiled bitterly, "It can't be that the governor's mansion did such a thing to her, right?"
"That's true. If there is such a thing, then who could it be …" When Lan Ruoting said this, his eyes flickered as if he had thought of something. His face was filled with suspicion. He thought about Niu Youdao's actions last night. Everyone was worried that something would happen to Shang Chaozong, but only Niu Youdao called everyone back and said that nothing would happen.
Last night, he was still wondering why Niu Youdao was so sure that nothing would happen to Shang Chaozong when Feng Ruonan was obviously taking revenge. Now that he heard Shang Chaozong's words, he seemed to understand something and said thoughtfully, "I'm afraid it can only be that person."
Shang Chaozong straightened his body and asked doubtfully, "Who?"
Lan Ruoting sighed softly, "Let the Prince get married and supervise the Prince's sexual intercourse. With such a logical conclusion, there can't be anyone other than that person."
Shang Chaozong was stunned, "Is Mister referring to Niu Youdao?"
Lan Ruoting said, "There were some signs last night. Now that I think about it, it must be related to him."
Shang Chaozong was puzzled, "Didn't Mister say that we didn't do anything about the bridal chamber? How could he have the chance to do such a thing? Moreover, I have eaten the food in the bridal chamber. If something happened to Feng Ruonan, why am I fine? "
Lan Ruoting sighed, "I don't know how he did it. Snakes and rats have their own ways. In short, it's not a normal way. Our Daoye's way of doing things is a bit evil. From the fact that he borrowed money from Princess Feng … to buy betrothal gifts, we can see that he is a person who will do anything to achieve his goals. He doesn't seem to be a man of the right path. But he is indeed a man of means. His vision and knowledge seem to be superior to others. He can do what others can't! I've been wondering. With his age, how can that small mountain village give him such a background? He doesn't seem to be trained by the Shangqing Sect. Moreover, he has been under house arrest by the Shanghai Sect. Alas, what kind of disciple did Mr. Dongguo take in? I don't know whether it's a good thing or a bad thing to have such a person around us. But now it seems that it's not a bad thing. He is indeed helping us. "
Shang Chaozong was about to cry. His face was as bitter as a gourd. "What the hell is this? How can I face others …"
After talking for a while, Lan Ruoting left Shang Chaozong alone in the room, feeling vexed.
After finding Shang Shuqing outside, Lan Ruoting invited Shang Shuqing to a secluded place to talk.
"Brother, are you alright?" Shang Shuqing asked worriedly.
Lan Ruoting shook his head. He wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. It seemed that he didn't know whether he should say something or not.
Seeing this, Shang Shuqing said, "Sir, you can say what you want to say. I don't think we need to be in such a difficult situation."
Lan Ruoting thought for a while and said, "I just want to remind Your Highness that if it's not necessary, try not to be alone with Niu Youdao."
Shang Shuqing was surprised. "Sir, why do you say that?"
Lan Ruoting thought for a while and reminded him in a low voice, "There's something fishy about the bridal chamber. It's possible that Feng Ruonan was drugged by Niu Youdao. Otherwise, I'm afraid the Prince wouldn't be able to succeed."
"Ah …" Shang Shuqing cried out involuntarily. Realizing that he had lost his composure, he covered his mouth under the veil and said in a low voice, "How is that possible?"
Lan Ruoting said, "That should be the case. The Prince only realized it after the fact …" He roughly repeated Shang Chaozong's words.
Shang Shuqing thought about it and also thought about Niu Youdao's abnormal behavior last night. He also understood Lan Ruoting's meaning. He was worried that she would suffer the same fate as Feng Ruonan. He sighed softly, "Sir, you're thinking too much. Let's not talk about whether he did it or not. With my appearance, I'm afraid it's not possible." He was referring to his ugly appearance.
Lan Ruoting said, "I'm just reminding Your Highness to be careful. This person is a little strange." He cupped his hands and turned to leave.
Shang Shuqing watched him leave and remained silent for a long time …
In the small courtyard where the monks of Nanshan Temple were staying, Yuan Gang came again. Yuan Fang nodded and bowed in front of him with a smile on his face. He was already prepared to be beaten again. Yuan Gang wasn't in a hurry to beat him up. Instead, he sized him up in surprise. This old monk had actually shaved his signature white beard clean. He looked much younger, and he almost didn't recognize him …
The bridal chamber was a mess. Feng Ruonan, who was sitting by the side of the bed, was crying. There was really no place to sit. The chairs and table were all broken.
The scene from last night kept appearing in her mind. The situation that was under her control suddenly flipped. She felt weak all over. Every time she thought about the shameful scene of being manipulated by Shang Chaozong, she couldn't bear it and wanted to kill herself. She didn't know why she was so unlucky. Recently, humiliating things happened one after another. She really wanted to die.
