The man's side was miserable, but Princess Liwan's side was decorated with lanterns and colorful lights and full of joy.
The young master entered the princess's house in despair.
This forced marriage only lasted less than a year.
The young master went crazy and was locked in the backyard by Princess Liwan.
According to rumors, a servant had seen the young master. The once handsome and handsome man was now as skinny as a ghost, half-clothed, and fighting for food with dogs.
The young master's body was covered in blood, and his left leg was broken, ulcerated and smelly. He didn't seek treatment from a doctor, and his bones were exposed, which was very scary.
A month later, news of the death of the consort came from the princess mansion.
Princess Liwan became a widow again and continued to live her happy life of drinking, dancing and singing every night.
Suddenly, all the men in Longjing avoided Princess Liwan like a snake or a scorpion.
At that time, Wei Zi was also preparing for her wedding to the prince.
Her brothers were very worried about her.
"Xiao Zi, why don't you pretend to be sick and delay the marriage?" said the eldest brother.
"Let's just break up the marriage! My sister is so virtuous and my brother is so ridiculous. Wouldn't getting married be like jumping into a pit of fire?!" The second brother has a bad temper.
"Yes, even if you never marry, it is better than entering the palace." The third brother Wei Jue is about the same age as Wei Zi, and he protects her the most closely.
Wei Zi was very moved.
But these words can only be said in private. It is impossible for her not to get married.
Her brothers love her and protect her, so she should protect the Wei family even more.

What surprised Wei Zi was that Ji Qi didn't want to go to Princess Liwan's birthday party.
"Look, I haven't come to bother you lately, so I want you to have a peaceful life. Isn't it too much to ask you a small favor?" Ji Qi said with a smile.
Wei Zi couldn't help but look up at him. Haha, it turns out that the prince knew very well that she didn't want to see him.
"The prince's words are serious. Husband and wife are one, how can you help me?" Wei Zi straightened her body and gave a fake smile.
"Stop acting like the Queen Mother, let's get straight to the point and say what you have to say. I don't want to go to the eldest sister's birthday party, so you can help me cover up with the Queen Mother." Ji Qi said.
"Why doesn't the prince want to go to the eldest sister's birthday party?" Wei Zi pretended to be 50% surprised.
"It sounds like you really want to go." Ji Qi rolled his eyes mercilessly: "Why are you women so hypocritical!"
Wei Zi was tongue-tied for a moment as he complained outright.
"I don't want to go anyway, so you can think of a way to help me block it. In return, I will continue not to appear in front of you, okay?" Ji Qi's patience is really bad.
Wei Zi thought for a moment and said: "Since the Queen Mother has said that we will go together, it will definitely not work if we don't go. However, the Queen Mother has not said when the prince will return."
"Then - I'll show up and leave the rest to you." Ji Qi was still a little reluctant.
"Okay." Wei Zi nodded.
"Hey..." Ji Qi's sigh was full of resistance to going to the princess's house to see her sister.
Wei Zi became more and more puzzled.
What happened to these two siblings that made Ji Qi so abnormal?

In the blink of an eye, the third day came.
Wei Zi wore a sapphire blue dress, a decent headdress, and plain makeup. She believed that she was suitable for the status of a crown princess and would not steal Princess Liwan's limelight, so she was ready to go out.
Unexpectedly, when Ji Qi saw him, he said depressedly: "Change your clothes."
"Eh?" Wei Zi looked at herself from head to toe, "Is there any problem?"
