Ji Yin finally changed into the wedding dress at the last minute, because he was worried that if he didn't change, Ji Mingyue would have to take off his clothes and "help" him change, which would be even worse... Instead of wearing the yellow robe he wanted, he wore a red robe.

Just after midnight, a man in a red robe appeared at the door of the princess' bedroom. Only one palace maid was waiting at the door. It was Hongyu who delivered the wedding dress in the afternoon.

The woman had an expression of inexperience, and she looked at him as if he were a monster. Ji Yin endured that look - the women in the palace should not have seen many weddings and funerals among the common people. It would be strange if no one looked at him when he appeared in a formal manner, dressed in red. It was a pity that the person who looked at him was not Qiao Wan'er.

"Cough cough." Ji Yin deliberately coughed twice, interrupting the woman opposite him who was staring intently.

Hongyu withdrew her gaze somewhat embarrassedly and bowed slightly towards Ji Yin: "Eunuch, you are here, His Highness is waiting inside!"

Ji Ying didn't know what to say, so he just bowed slightly in silence.

Just as he was about to push the door open, he suddenly heard Hongyu speak again: "Eunuch, don't be too reserved. Although the princess is a little crazy, she is not as bad as the rumors outside. She is just sad. Eunuch, please talk to her more and help her get over it."

Ji Yin nodded and agreed silently, but what he was thinking was: She is suffering, so how could I not be suffering too? Being teased by a little tyrant.

Inside the bedroom, a few red candles were glowing with flickering lights, there was a carved lacquered wooden bed, carved lacquered wooden furniture, and curtains around the bed, which were simply covered with a thin layer of red gauze. This was the bridal chamber.

Although Ji Ping had never entered a bridal chamber, he had seen wedding rooms decorated by country folk, and they were not as sloppily decorated as the one in the princess's palace.

Well, since it was just a joke played by a crazy princess, the people below would naturally not be very careful in arranging it. They would consider the mission accomplished if they could fool the crazy woman.

Ji Yin glanced around and saw that there was no one in the room. Just as he was wondering, he suddenly felt someone hugging him from behind.

"Husband, you are finally here!"

Ji Mingyue actually hid behind the door through which he came in and launched a sneak attack.

Ji Yin didn't know how many times this crazy princess had approached him in this way in the past two days. He was dodging at first and wanted to keep a distance from the princess, but he was powerless and could not resist the robbery and plunder, so he had to bow to this peach blossom fate... In this world, some people and some things may be destined to be inevitable, just like Qiao Wan'er's assassination of Xu Shixin. No matter how he warned himself not to stand out and to hide behind the scenes, he was eventually forced to take the lead. If this is not fate, what is it?
Before Ji Yin turned around, the woman behind him had already moved to his side. The two hands that were originally around his waist were wrapped around one of his arms again: "Husband, you look really good in this dress!"

Ji Yin had to admit that although Ji Mingyue was crazy, her vision in judging men was still normal.

When he turned around, he saw the girl was also dressed in red. It was said that the princess looked like an immortal when she was young, and it was true. And her makeup today was very delicate, not at all like the hasty decoration of the new house. Ji Yin's eyes could not help but stay on her face for a moment. He was so busy avoiding her in the past two days that he didn't realize that the person he was desperately trying to get rid of was actually a great beauty. Although she was already in her thirties, she still had her charm. It was said that crazy people don't grow white hair. Sure enough, her figure and appearance were still like a girl.

Ji Yin suddenly felt that the grievances he had suffered in the past two days didn’t seem so unfair.

"My dear, do you know why the red veil on my head is gone?"

"Well, I don't know. Please enlighten me, Your Highness."

"That's because I took it off myself, hahaha." When the princess laughed, her face was full of silliness.

Ji Ying thought she looked better without smiling.

Ji Mingyue laughed contentedly for a long time, then pulled Ji Ying towards the bed.

Ji Ying sensed her "intention" and was suddenly a little panicked. He used the Kung Fu of standing still on his legs, hanging himself in place like a weight, and tried to keep a distance from the bed - he was not a real eunuch, otherwise he would be exposed.

"Princess, I have something to tell you, but I don't know if I should tell you or not."

"If there is anything else we should talk about, my husband, please tell me."

"The princess kept calling me husband, and I was a little confused. I felt like the princess had recognized the wrong person."

"How could that be? Aren't you my husband Qing Shuang?"

"The husband Qingshuang that the princess is talking about, could it be the former Youcheng Lord's eldest son, Mr. Lu Qingshuang?"

"Ah? That's right, it must be you, my husband!" When Ji Mingyue heard Ji Ying's question, she looked confused and silly.

"Your Highness, you have mistaken me for someone else. My name is Fuzhi, and I am a eunuch in the palace. I am not your husband. Your husband, Lord Lu, is actually in this room!"

"What did you say? You said Qing Shuang is here too? Then where is he?" Upon hearing this, the princess immediately released her hands from around Ji Wei's arms, stepped back a few feet, and looked around, "Where is Qing Shuang? Why can't I see him?"

"He is standing beside us two, and is looking at Her Royal Highness the Princess. It is normal that the Princess cannot see him, because only the Yin-Yang eyes of mine can see him, except for those who are not from the Yang world."

"What? You said you saw a ghost!" The princess looked around again with empty eyes.

"To be honest, I had some superhuman abilities when I was a child. I don't know when I suddenly gained a third eye that could connect yin and yang, see people who are not from the mortal world, and communicate with them in a special way. But it has never opened since I grew up. When I walked into the princess's room just now, it suddenly opened for some reason. I saw a man who did not look like a mortal standing next to the princess. After speaking with him in secret, I realized that it was the princess' husband, Lord Lu Qingshuang." "You... can really see my Qingshuang?" The princess seemed unconvinced and continued to ask for confirmation.

"Princess, I did have this ability before, and it was activated again today for some reason. I think it's because Lord Lu missed me too much."

"So... my Qingshuang... he really turned into a ghost?" The princess' voice trembled a little, and not only her voice, her whole body seemed to be trembling.

At this time, the princess in Ji Yin's eyes was not crazy at all, but a normal person who was suffering from great pain.

Without waiting for Ji Ying to reply, the princess suddenly stepped forward excitedly and grabbed his hand. When their skin touched, she seemed to have thought of something again, so she quickly let go again and took two steps back: "Then tell me where he is?"

"It's three feet in front of your Highness."

Ji Yin breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, feeling that his deception had worked, because from the princess's actions, it could be seen that she must have believed his lies and had begun to separate herself from her husband Lu Qingshuang in her mind.

Ever since he was thrown into the "tiger's mouth" by the young tyrant, Ji Yin has been thinking of ways to save himself all the time. The first thing he had to solve was a problem. He couldn't let the princess hang on him all day, sometimes around his waist, sometimes around his arm. So he thought of such a "sinister" trick to make this silly sister (she was indeed Ji Yin's eldest sister in name) realize with a broken heart that she was not his husband, and that his husband had turned into a ghost.

Ji Ying felt that this method was quite cruel. Ji Mingyue called every man "husband" when she saw him, but in fact she just didn't want to admit that Lu Qingshuang was no longer alive. But there was nothing she could do. He was now regarded as Lu Qingshuang's substitute. If he wanted to escape and stop being a substitute, he could only resort to this last resort... Anyway, he had done more than one cruel thing, so he was not afraid of one more.

"You lied to me, you must be lying to me, my Qingshuang will not die! He will definitely not die." Ji Mingyue suddenly yelled at Ji Ying as if he was crazy.

Ji Ying's heart trembled at the roar, and he felt that he could no longer pretend. But the lie had already been told, so what else could he do?

"Your Highness, I really didn't lie. This young man told me in person that he is Lu Qingshuang, the eldest son of the Youcheng family, and your husband."

"What else did he say?" Ji Mingyue still had a look of doubt on her face.

"He also said that because he saw the princess's life was so hard, he had been wandering around for more than ten years and couldn't feel at ease to reincarnate."

"Then tell me what he looks like?" Ji Mingyue continued to verify the authenticity.

"A tall, handsome man who looks like a fallen immortal."

"What was he wearing?"

"A white stand-up collar, a navy blue riding suit, and a leopard print embroidered on the coat."

Ji Yin was so nervous that he clenched his fists... This crazy woman Ji Mingyue is really hard to fool!

Right Prime Minister Lu Yu was the most handsome man among the six loyal ministers, with a tall figure and delicate features. Ji Yin thought his son would not be bad either. As for the white stand-up collar and navy blue riding suit, it was a popular outfit among the young masters of the aristocratic families in Lin'an Prefecture more than ten years ago. The Pillar State Lord Wang Zhifei had one, and Lu Qingshuang was a good rider and archer, so Ji Yin guessed that he must have worn it.

"So Qingshuang is really no longer alive." Ji Mingyue seemed to completely believe what Ji Ying said. She stared blankly at the void in front of her, as if she had traveled through several periods of time and saw the man she had been thinking about day and night at the end of her heart. Tears silently flowed down her cheeks.

At this moment, Ji Yin just wanted to close his eyes. He couldn't stand seeing women cry since he was a child.

"Then when I speak, can Qing Shuang hear me?"

"I can help the princess convey what she wants to say to Mr. Lu in secret messages." Ji Yin felt that he was already extremely evil, but why not do some good deeds to make up for it.

"Qing Shuang, you shouldn't have protected me in front of your family that day. It would have been better if you let them kill me. This way they would be relieved of their hatred, and I could meet you in the underworld."

"Qing Shuang, when I returned to the palace, I found out that I was pregnant with your child, but I couldn't keep him. Can you forgive me?"

It is said that after the Taiping Gate Rebellion, the Lu Mansion was besieged by soldiers and officers. Lu Yu's other family members wanted to kill Ji Mingyue to vent their hatred, but were eventually stopped by Lu Qingshuang, who escorted them out of the mansion. During the process, one of their arms was chopped off by his furious brother.

Although, in the eyes of the people in the Lu Mansion, Lu Qingshuang's act of marrying a thief was disobedient and unrighteous, the words he said when rescuing Princess Fenyang somehow spread throughout the streets and alleys of Lin'an Mansion, moving countless ladies from wealthy families and ordinary girls - "I don't care what kind of princess Ji Mingyue is or whose daughter she is, I only know that she is my wife and has never done anything to let our Lu family down. I will protect her until my death!"

Ji Yin suddenly felt something sliding down the corner of his eye, and he unconsciously reached out to wipe it away. This... He had heard such stories between infatuated men and resentful women before, but he had always just laughed it off!

"Your Highness, the young master also has something to say to you."

"Lian'er, be happy. You must be happy. Eat your favorite sweet and sour pork ribs, play with your favorite hydrangea, play with your favorite flowers and plants, read your favorite book, and live a good life even if you are alone."

When Hongyu brought the wedding dress, Ji Yin specifically asked her about the princess's nickname and her usual preferences. Hongyu said that the princess didn't have many preferences (not counting men and children) after moving back to Xunfang Palace, but she still had many many years ago.
