He had just been reborn when he was imprisoned by his nemesis, the Empress?

Xu Yi twisted his body uncomfortably, trying to grab that hand, but he couldn't quite reach it.

"Stop scratching, it's so itchy!"

Su Qingluan scratched even more vigorously after hearing this.

"Go ahead and scratch me. You have no right to order me around."

In a fit of anger, Xu Yi suddenly raised his hand and slammed it hard against the bed.

Su Qingluan lightly patted Xu Yi's head, her tone carrying a hint of provocation.

"If you're so capable, come and hit me. Stop taking your anger out on the bed; it hasn't done anything to you."

Xu Yi gritted his teeth, not saying a word, curled up into a ball, wrapping himself up like a rice dumpling, trying his best to prevent the other person from scratching his waist.

Su Qingluan scratched for a while longer, but seeing that Xu Yi had stopped struggling and was just silently enduring it, she suddenly felt a little bored and stopped.

He then tugged at the tuft of hair on Xu Yi's head, a smile playing on his lips.

After doing all this, Su Qingluan turned around, closed her eyes, and fell asleep.

Xu Yi breathed a sigh of relief when he sensed that Su Qingluan had stopped.

He closed his eyes, trying to calm himself down and go to sleep.

[Ding! Dream travel is about to begin. Please relax your body...]

When Xu Yi opened his eyes again, he was back in that festive wedding room.

Xu Yi first glanced out the window.

It was still early morning. It seemed that when he left this world, everything in this world would come to a standstill.

Xu Yi rubbed his somewhat heavy head.

"Should we go find Jiang Xuange first?"

"Wait."

Xu Yi suddenly remembered something and patted his head.

"On the second day of the wedding, according to the customs of this world, shouldn't you take your wife to serve tea to your parents?"

As Xu Yi muttered to himself, he reached out and pushed open the door to the bridal chamber, where he could faintly hear voices outside.

Xu Yi stood at the door of the bridal chamber, glanced outside, and saw a couple walking towards him.

The two were dressed like servants or maids.

Hearing the door open, the two looked up abruptly. Seeing it was Xu Yi, they hurriedly stopped, bowed respectfully, and spoke in a deferential tone.

"Young Master."

Looking at the two people, Xu Yi recognized them—they were his personal maids who had served him in his room for many years.

One is named Hu Tao, and the other is named A Fu.

It seems that the original owner's memories have been almost fully integrated.

Xu Yi nodded, rubbed his eyes, and asked...

"Hmm, where is Madam?"

Hu Tao straightened up, a gentle smile on her face.

"Young Master, Madam got up early this morning and is waiting for you in the flower hall on the west side."

She turned slightly to the side and pointed towards the end of the corridor.

"Madam said that once you wake up, we will go to the front hall together to serve tea to the clan leader and mistress."

Afu quickly added.

"Young Master, breakfast has been prepared and is set out in the flower hall. Madam specifically instructed that it be served."

Xu Yi nodded after hearing this.

"Okay, I understand. You guys go ahead with your work."

After the two men acknowledged and withdrew, Xu Yi walked towards the west flower hall.

After walking a few steps, I smelled a faint floral fragrance mixed with the aroma of breakfast, which made me feel comfortable.

Upon arriving at the entrance of the flower hall, Xu Yi glanced up and saw Jiang Xuange sitting in the courtyard.

She was wearing a light blue dress with a few elegant orchids embroidered on the hem.

The sunlight fell on her, outlining her soft features.

Jiang Xuange didn't have Su Qingluan's imposing aura; instead, she was like a gentle and peaceful spring stream.

Xu Yi really liked this feeling of hers, especially after being tormented by a strong and domineering woman like Su Qingluan.

According to the memories he had just merged with, his marriage to Jiang Xuange was practically arranged by their parents.

However, they had met more than ten times before getting married, so they weren't complete strangers, and they even had some affection for each other.

Xu Yi tiptoed, quietly circled behind Jiang Xuange, and suddenly stretched out his hands, gently placing them on her shoulders. He called out, deliberately trying to scare her.

"ha!"

Jiang Xuange trembled slightly, then turned her head, her eyes showing a deliberately feigned look of surprise, while a faint smile played on her lips.

She raised her hand and gently punched the back of Xu Yi's hand, her voice carrying a hint of reproach.

"My husband!"

Xu Yi took her hand in his, finding it warm and soft to the touch, and said with a smile.

"Didn't my wife say she was exhausted in the middle of the night? Why are you up so early?"

When Jiang Xuange heard him mention what happened last night, her cheeks instantly flushed red.

She gently withdrew her hand, her eyes darting away to the side, her voice barely audible.

"Today we need to serve tea to our parents, so we can't be late."

She paused, then looked up at Xu Yi, a gentle smile in her eyes.

"Husband, please sit down. The porridge is still warm. After you finish eating, we'll go to the front hall."

Xu Yi sat down and looked at the dishes on the table, all of which were his favorites.

The original owner really is me! Everything is the same: hobbies, favorite foods, personality, and so on.

Seeing that he was eating with relish, Jiang Xuange didn't say much, but silently picked up the serving chopsticks and occasionally put a piece of food on his plate.

"It's so good to have such a virtuous wife," Xu Yi couldn't help but think.

I wish Jiang Xuange could exist in the real world.

They enjoyed a warm breakfast together, and afterwards walked side by side toward the front hall, exchanging a few casual words along the way, creating a harmonious atmosphere.

The door to the front hall was open, and the interior was furnished in a simple and rustic style, with a faint sandalwood scent in the air.

Sitting on the grand chair directly above was a couple, none other than Xu Qingshan, the sect leader of Tianlan Sect, and his mistress, Madam Liu.

Xu Qingshan, dressed in a black Taoist robe, with a long beard and a gentle smile on his face, was looking intently at the two of them.

Liu was dressed in a light purple dress and wore a simple pearl hairpin. She had a gentle and quiet temperament, and her eyes and brows resembled Xu Yi's. She exuded a kind and loving aura.

Looking at the two people in front of him, Xu Yi felt a strange sense of familiarity.

It seems... even emotions were directly inherited?

This is not a good thing. What will I do when I actually leave this world?

Jiang Xuange seemed to notice his unusual behavior, gently tugged at his sleeve, and whispered...

"Husband, don't just stand there, let's go over there."

Xu Yi snapped out of his daze, suppressed the complex emotions in his heart, and nodded.

The two stepped forward together and bowed to Xu Qingshan and Madam Liu, who were seated on the grand chair.

"Your daughter-in-law has met your father and mother."

The two walked forward together and stood in the hall. Xu Qingshan spoke with a smile, his voice loud and clear.

"Yi'er, Xuange, you've arrived."

"Alright, alright, get up quickly, no need for formalities."

He waved his hand as he spoke.

Liu also quickly waved.

"Come here quickly and let your mother see. Xuan Ge is becoming more and more remarkable."

Her gaze swept over the two of them, and seeing them standing side by side, she nodded in satisfaction.

"From now on, you will be husband and wife. You must support each other and live a good life together."

Jiang Xuange's cheeks flushed slightly, and she obediently responded.

"Yes, Mother."

Upon seeing this, the maidservant quickly brought over two cups of hot tea.

Xu Yi and Jiang Xuange each picked up a cup of tea, and first went to Xu Qingshan to hand him the teacup.

"Father, please have some tea."

Xu Qingshan took the teacup, took a sip, then took out two brocade boxes from his pocket and handed them to Xu Yi and Jiang Xuange.

"Here, this is your father's wedding gift."

The two said thank you in unison, and then carried the tea to Liu Shi and offered her tea in turn.

After drinking the tea, Madam Liu gave each of them a brocade box, and her smile never faded.

"Good children, from now on you should respect and love each other, and live in harmony..."

After serving tea, Xu Qingshan asked them to sit down on the chairs next to him and began to chat with them.

The two chatted in the hall for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

Most of the time, it was Xu Qingshan and Liu Shi who were giving them instructions, talking about everyday matters, but their words were full of deep concern.

Hearing these words, Xu Yi felt a warmth in his heart, yet also a slight unease.

After chatting, the two walked out of the lobby together, the sunlight shining on them, warm and pleasant.

Jiang Xuange turned to look at Xu Yi, a gentle smile on her face, and asked softly.

"My lord, where shall we go next?"
