It was March, the spring was in full bloom, and the peach blossoms were scorching.

Chang'an city is decorated with lights and colorful banners, and brocade flags are flying. Both sides of Zhuque Street are brightly lit, and the people are rubbing shoulders and crowded. They are watching the excitement while whispering among each other——

"The prince's wedding was so grand!"

"Nonsense, when the prince gets married, can it be less grand? Besides, this may be the only happy event for the prince in his life, so it must be more grand."

"Alas, our prince is really pitiful. He is such a wise and gentle man, but he is so frail and sick..."

"The prince is pitiful, and the married princess is also pitiful. She is a legitimate daughter of the prince's family, but she has to celebrate a sick man who is not going to die soon. If the prince passes away, won't she become a widow at a young age?"

As you and I spoke, the gorgeous sedan entered the East Palace along with the long ceremonial procession.

The prince was too sick to welcome the bride in person. Therefore, the sedan chair had to go all the way to the gate of the East Palace, and then the prince kicked the sedan chair to pick up the bride.

Xi Po said to the sedan chair with a smile, "Princess, we have arrived at the East Palace, please get ready, His Highness is coming to pick you up!"

There was silence in the sedan chair.

Xi Po called out again, but there was still no sound. Could it be that the bride fell asleep all the way?

She felt something was wrong in her heart, so she lifted the corner of the curtain and took a look.

At this glance, Xipo's expression suddenly changed, her legs became weak, and she almost fell to the ground.

Inside the sedan chair, the bride, dressed in a bright red wedding dress, was leaning limply on the sedan chair, her eyes tightly closed, and a trace of black blood flowing from the corner of her bright red mouth.

Beside the hand that was hanging down helplessly was a small white porcelain vase.

The bride was going to marry the prince, but before the ceremony, she committed suicide by taking poison!

——

When Tao Ti opened her eyes, she was greeted by a large area of ​​warm red.

A bright red wedding ceremony, a bright red pillow and quilt, a bright red wedding dress, a bright red double happiness paper-cut... What is this situation?

As if to answer her question, the next moment, countless memories flooded into my mind.

The owner of this body, also named Tao Ti, is the legitimate daughter of Yongweihou of the Dayuan Dynasty. She is sixteen years old this year. Zhang, the wife of Yongweihou, and Queen Gu had a handkerchief relationship, and later gave birth to a young daughter Tao Ti. They are two good friends.

Sisters become the in-laws of their children.

Baby kisses were very common in ancient times. However, in the second year of the promised marriage, Queen Gu died of illness.

Not long after, the little prince, who was only five years old, also fell into the ice lake. From then on, his roots were ruined. He had a cold every three days and a high fever every five days. He had been relying on decoction to survive. Six months ago, the Qintian Supervisor calculated that the prince was destined to have a certain fate.

I'm afraid I won't survive until the age of twenty-three.

This year, the prince turns twenty-one.

The emperor loved the prince so much that he took the advice of his successor Zhou and held a wedding for the prince as soon as possible in order to avoid this fatal disaster.

He never thought that the bride had someone in mind and was unwilling to marry a sick and weak prince who was about to die, so she chose to end her life on the sedan chair.

By some strange combination of circumstances, Tao Ti, who was suffering from food poisoning and belching farts, came through.

After figuring out the situation, Tao Ti just wanted to angrily complain about her bad friend, the one whose IQ had degenerated into that of a husky——

This guy came back from a trip to Yunnan and brought her a bunch of mushrooms. After she finished eating them happily, she discovered that the mushroom's scientific name is Daqing Fructus, also known as icu mushroom, and the whole village eats mushrooms.

I miss Tao Ti. As the 99th generation cub of the Taotie clan, she had a big mouth to eat, but she fell on a plate of mushrooms!

The most ridiculous thing is that they, the gluttonous clan, are invulnerable to all kinds of poisons, but there was a malfunction in the underworld system, and they unknowingly hooked her up. Before she could complain to the King of Hell, she was knocked into the reincarnation platform by an evil ghost.

When she opened her eyes again, she became the happy princess.

Tao Ti comforted herself, "It's fate to be wearing someone with the same name. Now that it's here, let's make peace with it." She propped herself up and sat up. It was probably because the poison hadn't been completely removed yet, and there was still a slight pain in her chest.

My throat is also extremely dry.

The wedding room was empty, there was no one, and the door was closed.

Tao Ti walked to the table and wanted to pour a glass of water, but the teapot was empty. She licked her lips and called out, "Is there anyone there?"

No one answered her.

Tao Ti pursed her lips and just walked to the door when a conversation came from outside:

"She should have told me if she didn't want to get married. Who did she want to disgust by committing suicide in the sedan chair? Now that she is overjoyed, she has found a lot of bad luck."

"Well, our Highness is so kind-hearted that he even asked the imperial doctor to detoxify her. If you ask me, if such a woman dies, she will die. If she made such a fuss just after she entered the door, won't our East Palace have to do it in the future?

She made me so nervous that I couldn't feel safe anymore!"

"Who says it's not the case? The prince is really unlucky. What a joke on his big day, and now he is still holding on to socializing outside... Hey, do you think the prince will come over tonight?"

"She probably won't come. Who would want to have a bridal chamber with such a woman? Besides, she deserves to be alone in the empty room after doing such a thing!"

Listening to the words of the palace maids, Tao Ti had mixed feelings in her heart. She could be angry, but she couldn't be angry. After all, what the original owner did was really terrible. She couldn't be angry. She had to deal with such a mess as soon as she came through.

What a grievance!

Sighing, she quickly adjusted her attitude and said to the door in a dumb voice, "Can you get me a glass of water? The pot in the house is out of water."

As soon as she finished speaking, the sounds outside also stopped abruptly.

After waiting for a while, there was no response or any more words from outside.

Are they planning to just leave her alone? Or are they saying that although she has been rescued, she is no longer a princess? She has even become... a prisoner?

Just when Tao Ti was unsure of the situation, there was finally a movement at the door.

Tao Ti subconsciously took a few steps back to keep a safe distance.

The door opened, and a palace maid with triangular eyes in a blue dress came in carrying a pot of water. She placed the teapot heavily on the table, with a cold face, and her tone was not polite at all, "Drink.

"

This attitude...

Tao Ti frowned slightly, feeling unhappy. Then she thought about her confused future, but she finally held it back.

She said "thank you" in a low voice and poured a glass of water. But as soon as she took a sip of the tea, an old and sour taste filled her tongue.

This water was not drinkable at all, it was cold and not clean.

Seeing the undisguised disgust in the palace maid's eyes, Tao Ti pursed her lips and said in a deep voice, "Please give me a bottle of water."

She added emphatically, "Clean, drinkable water."

The palace maid glanced at her impatiently and muttered, "It would be nice to have water to drink, but you are still picky. It's not that you don't want to be a crown princess, why are you planning to be a crown princess now..."

Tao Ti's expression froze. Just as she was about to say something, she heard another palace man urging her from outside, "Guirong, why are you lingering in there?"

The palace attendant known as Guirong responded with a high-pitched voice outside the room, "Hey, we are not the crown princess. She is so rich and noble. People look down on us in the East Palace. They dislike this and that, and now they still dislike us.

The water in the East Palace is not clean... If you ask me, even the empresses in the palace are not as delicate as she is."

How could Tao Ti not notice such an obvious accusation? If she continues to endure this, why should she be a glutton? She can just be a tortoise.

"You said that I dislike the water from the East Palace? Well..." Tao Ti had a sullen face, poured another glass of water, took a big step forward, and raised the cup directly to the palace maid, "If you don't dislike it, just take this Drink the glass of water!"

Looking at the cup that was about to reach her lips, the palace goddess' expression changed and she subconsciously reached out to block it, "What are you doing?"

"Why don't you drink? Do you dislike Dong Gong too?" Tao Ti sneered, her red lips slightly raised, making her charming face look even brighter.

The palace maid's cheeks turned red and white, and she wanted to refute, but for a moment she didn't know what to say.

As expected, they all bully the weak and fear the strong.

With this thought in mind, Tao Ti placed the water glass heavily on the table and looked directly at the palace maid with a pair of beautiful eyes calmly, "I am the Crown Princess of the East Palace. Even if I make any mistakes, they will be dealt with by the Emperor, Empress and Prince. Why?" Is it your turn as a little palace maid to ridicule and point fingers at me?"

The door was open, and her voice was neither loud nor quiet, just enough for the palace people inside and outside the room to hear clearly.

Tao Ti didn't know the expression of the palace lady outside, but the arrogance of the palace lady in front of her was obviously wilting. She lowered her head and no longer dared to look into Tao Ti's eyes, but said calmly, "Yes, this slave has exceeded the rules." , I hope the Crown Princess can forgive me."

Even though he said this, his tone was still a bit unconvincing.

Tao Ti didn't expect that these two words would change the palace people's view of her. She didn't want to lose her temper or use her status to pressure others. From the beginning, she just wanted to drink a glass of water.

She calmed her expression and said quietly, "Go and get me a pot of clean water, and I won't argue with you."

The palace maid hurriedly lowered her head and responded, "Yes, I will go right now."

After that, he quickly picked up the kettle and turned around to leave.

Tao Ti's ears twitched, and after confirming that the person walked out of the house, the fierce momentum just now was gone in a second. She raised her little hand and patted her chest, and sighed in a low voice, "Huh, it's really not easy to put on airs..."

Just now, she acted with the tone of a vicious female supporting character in a TV series. She should be doing well, right?

She was thinking like this, looking at the wedding room, and thinking about a serious question - will her prince husband come over tonight?

The clay figurine still has three points of energy. No matter how good-tempered the prince who is rumored to be dead soon is, he will probably be very angry if the bride takes poison on the wedding day, right?

Alas, if I were the groom's official and the bride made such a fuss, I would definitely not talk to her again. In modern times, I would go directly to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce certificate.

Although there was such a talk about harmony and separation in ancient times,... have princes and princesses divorced in history? There are some conspiracy theories. In order to save face, will the royal family directly find an opportunity to "forcibly die of illness"?

Red crane crown, white silk, dagger, promoted to a higher position, cut into pieces with thousands of knives, divided into pieces by five horses...

Tao Ti was thinking about various ways of death in ancient times when a thin "squeak" sound suddenly sounded from behind her.

It was late at night, and everything was red again. This movement, which was comparable to the sound effects of a horror movie, scared her to the core.

The palace maid who fetched water must have returned? She was comforting herself like this, but her hands were nervously squeezing the red wedding dress.

When she turned around and saw the person standing at the door, Tao Ti was stunned as if she had been cast on a body-fixing spell——
Chapter completed!
