The Empress Kneels in Her Palace to Admit Her Mistakes After Slaying Her Ways in the Female-Oriented

"Lu Shuang?" Zhang Shi asked in confusion, "That name sounds familiar. Holy crap, isn't that the woman Wang Ming said he felt indebted to?"

"Yes, she had been hiding in the mountains. After she came out, she was found by our Demon Suppression Division. I personally asked her if she would like to join our Demon Suppression Division, and she readily agreed."

"Right now, she needs a moment of glory."

Zhang Shi nodded and said, "No problem. I'm not one to be stingy with credit. As long as she completes the mission well, I will give her credit."

Su Jin nodded. Lu Shuang was the person she had personally chosen. After finding her, she carefully considered her and felt that this girl was clear-headed, calm, and worth cultivating. She would surely be able to shoulder great responsibilities in the future.

So, after gaining some experience, he can be assigned to work with Zhang Shi. After all, according to the Duke, Zhang Shi is a rare military talent who was trained on the grasslands.

However, he doesn't pay much attention to the chaotic state of love-struck people in the world, which puts him at a disadvantage in every aspect.

If a suitable person can be found to advise him, it is almost certain that General Zhang Shi's future achievements will be limitless!

Su Jin knew that Ren Tianye's concerns were exactly what she was thinking, and this step also made things clear for Zhang Shixuan.

However, Zhang Shi is still very confused right now.

"Su Jin, could you repeat what you just said to Yun Wanyi to me again? I still don't quite understand."

Su Jin: "..."

……

With the clatter of iron hooves, Yun Wanyi galloped back to Huai'an City overnight.

As the daughter of a former garrison commander, she could easily leave Huai'an City, and naturally, she could also easily enter the heavily guarded city. At the same time, she was accompanied by some guards, as well as Lu Shuang, who was disguised as her personal maid.

"Miss, where have you been?"

"Your wedding is just around the corner, and Lord Xu Shang is coming to marry you. Why have you suddenly disappeared? We were so worried!"

When questioned by the housekeeper, Yun Wanyi replied calmly, "I just went out for a bit."

"We didn't miss the time, did we? There was no delay."

Yun Wanyi's cold and aloof attitude made the steward dare not ask any more questions. Mainly, he was relieved that he had not made a mistake, so he quickly took care of the maids and old women and dressed Yun Wanyi.

It was indeed just in time for Yun Wanyi to return. She had just hurriedly finished her makeup and put on her bright red wedding robes when the Xu family's wedding procession arrived.

The Yun and Xu families are the most prestigious families in Huai'an City. Their marriage was already attracting the attention of the entire city. In particular, now that everyone knows that the marriage between the Yun and Xu families means that the power in Huai'an City is consolidated, which will help them better counter Ren Tianye. As a result, the crowds of onlookers have become even larger.

Yun Wanyi did not hesitate or make a fuss. Wearing a red veil, she strode out, sat in the bridal sedan chair, and was accompanied by Lu Shuang, who was disguised as a maid. They soon arrived at the Xu family.

After the formalities were completed, the wedding ceremony began.

Under the red veil, Yun Wanyi could not see anyone, but she could clearly sense that the person standing next to her was not Xu Shang, whom she had played and grown up with since childhood.

That was a different kind of aura.

The scent emanated from Xu Shang's younger brother, Xu Xia.

Perhaps Xu Shang and Xu Feng look alike, and whether it's others or even herself, it would be difficult to tell the difference upon first seeing them. But many things cannot be seen with the eyes alone.

Intuition is often more accurate than what we see.

Yun Wanyi had anticipated this scene and had taken countermeasures, but she still couldn't help feeling a pang of pain in her heart at this moment.

Childhood sweethearts, years of companionship, can't compete with the arrival of a white moonlight!

Since that's the case, Xu Shang shouldn't blame her for being ruthless.

"I bow to Heaven and Earth!"

"Bowing to the parents a second time!"

"Husband and wife bow to each other!"

"Send them to the bridal chamber!"

After the ceremony was completed, Yun Wanyi was taken to the bridal chamber. Xu Xia, who was the groom, or rather, the fake groom, should have been accompanying the guests, but instead, he took the initiative to send Yun Wanyi there.

When their fingers inevitably touched, Yun Wanyi could clearly feel the temperature, trembling, and... the ambition that was carefully hidden but which Yun Wanyi knew very well.

Yun Wanyi, who was hiding her face behind the veil, revealed a smile.

She knew it; everything was as she had predicted.

After settling down, he summoned Lu Shuang, who had been closely following him.

"Miss Lu Shuang, did you see that person at the wedding?"

Lu Shuang nodded and said, "I saw it. It's really rare. Twins are already rare in this world, but it's even rarer for twins like Xu Shang and Xu Xia to be indistinguishable at first glance, even at their age."

"The rarest of all is..."

"One of you is getting married in the hall, while the other is whispering sweet nothings to another woman among the guests."

Yun Wanyi's hand tightened slightly, and hatred flashed in her eyes, but it quickly disappeared. Instead, she laughed and said, "What's even rarer is... the older brother making the younger brother marry on his behalf."

"The reason he is unwilling to marry me is simply because he cannot accept his 'white moonlight' (his first love).

"Oh!"

"Ten years of sincere love couldn't compare to that bitch falling from the sky."

Lu Shuang nodded, showing sympathy for Yun Wanyi, who was also a woman, and asked, "Miss, is there anything I can do for you now?"

"Keep an eye on him for me."

Yun Wanyi said, "After this wedding, under normal circumstances, Xu Shang would be able to rightfully take over the military affairs of the entire Huai'an City. Right now, he's dreaming!"

"Xu Xia, I'll handle this."

"Keep an eye on Xu Shang for me, so he doesn't cause any more trouble!"

"Yes, Miss!" Lu Shuang replied and left her room to find Xu Shang.

Lu Shuang's martial arts skills haven't been specially trained, making her somewhat difficult to track. Fortunately, she's now Yun Wanyi's maid, and with that status, no one dares to stop her even in the Xu residence, allowing her to thrive.

They quickly spotted Xu Shang and the woman next to him. The two of them, acting like thieves, wandered around and then turned and entered the kitchen.

Lu Shuang immediately climbed behind the wall.

The kitchen wasn't very secure, so she could hear what the two people inside were saying.

"Ah Yao, Ah Yao, please don't be angry, please don't be angry. I've already asked Xu Xia to marry Yun Wanyi on my behalf, and everything was done exactly as you said. Why are you angry again? Please, please don't be angry, okay?"

"Hmph! Xu Shang, don't think I can't see through you. You can't bear to part with Yun Wanyi at all. The look in your eyes when you saw her marrying your brother was full of jealousy. You haven't forgotten her at all. You... you're just fooling me!"

"No, no, Ayao, you're the only one in my heart. I'm really eager to marry Yun Wanyi. Right now, Ren Tianye's army is pressing in, and I need Yun Wanyi to control the entire Huai'an City. Besides, my father told me to marry Yun Wanyi before he died, and he didn't allow me to bring you into the family in any way. But..."

After a pause, the man's voice inside the room became incredibly firm: "Ah Yao, don't worry, although I, Xu Shang, cannot marry you in this life, I will absolutely never marry anyone else!"

My heart will always belong to you!
