Pei Yuanxiu and Ao Jiayu, the etiquette is done!
I looked at the faint glowing light in the distance, and the music that would be ignored if I was not careful. The wind of the river was cold, blowing the corners of the wind flapping high, with cold limbs and numb face, but a faint smile appeared on the corners of my mouth.
Finally, the courtesy was done.
Just at this moment, Xie Feng turned his head and wanted to urge me. Seeing the smile on my face, he subconsciously frowned.
However, without asking anything, he raised his hand and made a "please" gesture and said to me: "Ms. Yan, I don't want to force Miss Yan, and I don't want to hurt Miss Yan. Miss Yan... I should also understand that even if I don't say anything today, I can still get Miss Yan to board the boat."
“…”
"But, I really don't want to get into Miss Yan."
“…”
"Miss Yan, please go up by yourself."
As he said this, the expression on his face was not even warm at all, but it gave people an extremely powerful sense of oppression. In fact, I also know how powerless my struggle is. Besides, I am not the kind of person who will die for you if you don’t, and my life is much more precious to me than forcing others to do.
I thought about it and asked, "Will I be injured?"
Xie Feng seemed to smile faintly: "Miss Yan, this time I sent you here, not a decision, but a command from Mr. Pei."
What I mean is that Pei Yuanxiu will never hurt me.
I sighed faintly, and there was no other way, so I could only bit my lower lip, turn around and walk up to the sampan between the dock and a small door on the hull.
The ship was very big. After entering the small door, I climbed three steps before I got onto the deck. The deck was also very wide. There were many boatmen and guards busy back and forth, but when I saw Xie Feng and I, they stopped to greet me and greet him, and then continued to be busy.
I walked to the bow of the boat and looked at the dark river in front of me. There were only a few scattered waves shining, as if facing a huge mouth of the abyss. I don’t know what is below, I don’t know what is about to happen, nor do I know.
The uneasiness and panic that had been shaking in my heart became deeper and deeper. Standing on the deck, I felt the hull undulate and the cold river wind kept blowing my breeze, almost blowing my fingertips coldly, and I was trembling slightly.
Xie Feng came over and said, "Miss Yan, do you want to go to the cabin to rest for a while, even if you sleep for a while."
My eyebrows frowned and looked back at him: "Do I have no time to sleep tonight?"
Xie Feng was also stunned, as if he didn't expect me to be so sensitive, so he immediately shut up.
I knew that if this person refused to say it, he would not be able to ask any questions. The increasing uneasiness in my heart made me unable to go to the cabin to sleep peacefully. I stood stubbornly on the deck, enduring the whistling of the wind at this moment. Xie Feng had no choice but to stand behind me, and Hua Zhu and Yunshan could only stand behind him. The few people did not say a word and continued to remain silent in this quiet dark night.
Time passes by little by little.
After the ritual music just now, the surroundings became quiet. Everything in Yangzhou City was quiet, like a painted black model, with no one or any sound.
But in my heart, all kinds of questions and worries turned into countless sounds and were noisy in my ears.
Now, what's going on in Jinling Mansion?
Have Pei Yuanxiu and Ao Jiayu entered the bridal chamber?
Wen Fengxi, is his people already going to take action?
And in the inner courtyard, Nangong Lizhu and Han Zitong, what is the situation between them?
When will Han Ruoshi take action?
...
Even though I realized that no matter whether it succeeds or fails tonight, it is unlikely that I can escape from Pei Yuanxiu's control, but I am still worried that the two women in the inner courtyard, Nangong Lizhu cannot die, and Han Zitong cannot die. But what I am worried about is that tonight is not an ordinary plan, and even a little bit of a mistake may cause them to fall into an abyss that will never be restored!
Can they escape?
Everything around was quiet, and there was no other sound except the whistling of the river wind. I was worried and could hardly notice the passage of time. At this moment, a little light suddenly appeared in the dark night.
I suddenly looked up and saw that in the distance, it was the location of Jinling Mansion, where a strong light flashed. Then, I could see many highlights blooming from the dark night sky.
It's fireworks!
I used to "show off" many of the outstanding features of the wedding with Ao Jiayu. In addition to wedding dresses and banquets, there is also the fireworks in Yangzhou City!
However, before I told her, I knew that her wedding could reproduce all the wonderful things of the past, but it could not replicate the splendor of the city's fireworks, because it was given to me by Liu Qinghan.
Ao Jiayu is destined to not get such a wedding.
However, with the importance that Jinling Mansion attaches to this wedding, even if there are no fireworks in Yangzhou City, a fireworks can be set up in Jinling City. This matter will definitely fall on Han Ruoshi. As for how she wants to operate, I can imagine it.
At this moment, I saw colorful and dazzling fireworks blooming in the center of the sky in the distance, which was so beautiful, but it made my heart suddenly raise my throat.
At this time, the bride had already been sent to the bridal chamber as usual. As for the groom, is he drinking with the guests outside or has he entered the bridal chamber?
Actually, I had been in the inner courtyard tonight before, and I couldn't see all the actions outside, and I could estimate the trajectory of each person; but now it's different. Pei Yuanxiu invited me out of the inner courtyard and onto this ship, completely beyond my expectations, and broke all my previous estimates. I didn't dare to judge what he would do next according to my previous plan.

Although the night wind was so cold, I was sweating all over my head, and I stood at the bow of the boat with my hands holding the fence. Gradually, my body became a little unstable with my heartbeat.
At this moment, I heard the road we came on the pier, extending in the night to the chariot and horse lane in the dark, and suddenly a sound rang out.
It's the sound of horse hooves.
Someone came towards this side.
Who is it? Is it Ao Zhi?
As soon as I thought about it this way, I immediately denied this idea. Those people just said that Prince Ao was preparing for a car and it was impossible to leave alone; not to mention that I also felt in my heart that Pei Yuanxiu brought me here because he didn't want anyone to know that anyone should include Ao Zhi.
Then the person who came is—
I opened my eyes wide and looked down. It was pitch black around me. There were only a few lights on the boat and the sporadic lights on the pier emitted a little light, illuminating the chariot and horse lane that extended to the thick night for a short distance.
Soon, the sound of horse hooves became closer and closer, and they rushed over almost at lightning speed, and also rushed into the place illuminated by the lights.
I saw the man on the horse's back at a glance, dressed in red!
That's-!
My heart suddenly jumped, and I saw the horse running directly to the dock and parked very close to the ferry. Immediately someone went up to take the reins. The person on the horse's back turned over and looked up and saw me standing at the bow of the boat.
My breathing was suffocated.
That's Pei Yuanxiu!
He is here!
It turned out that it was him who rode his horse to the pier in Jinling late at night!
Not only did I not believe my eyes for a moment, but I couldn't react at all. I just stared at the bottom with my eyes wide open. He looked up and looked at me, probably because he was riding all the way over, his face was a little pale by the cold wind, but his eyes were particularly bright. In such night, there were two lamps, and the red dress was his wedding dress. He even rushed here before he could take it off. After seeing me on the boat, he handed the reins in his hand to the servant next to him, and walked onto the sampan.
Soon, I heard the footsteps behind me, and he walked up the stairs.
I held the fence and felt my heart beating violently in my chest, and the footsteps had already walked behind me.
His voice rang in his ears: "Are you tired?"
“…”
"I know that calling you out so late will definitely disturb you to rest."
“…”
"If you're tired, go to the cabin and have a sleep."
“…”
“Tonight, it may be noisy.”
His words completely pierced the power in my heart that was trying hard to suppress myself. I bit my lower lip and did not look back. I just grabbed the fence in front of me with force: "You, what are you going to do?"
“…”
"Tonight is obviously your wedding night, why didn't you enter the bridal chamber with Ao Jiayu? Why did you call me out? Why did you want to be on this boat?"
“…”
"What do you want?"
The person behind him was silent for a while before speaking, his voice as gentle as ever, even gentle: "Little, I know what you are going to do when you come to Jinling. Would you not know what I am going to do in Jinling?"
“…!”
My shoulders trembled violently.
At this time, a big hand slowly stroked my shoulder. Perhaps because of the speed of the journey, he gasped slightly, and his palm was almost hot and placed on my shoulder for a moment. The temperature dyed my skin through layers of clothes.
But I dare not look back.
When I looked up again, I just trembled and looked at the location of Jinling Mansion in the distance.
The light of fireworks has slowly faded away in the night, and everything seems to have returned to the past. Everything is quiet, and the deep night is like a heavy hand, holding everything on the ground, even like the hand he placed on my shoulder, making people feel breathless.
