v1c21: Cannon Fodder Who Seeks Death [21]

The officials were overjoyed when Qin Li finally agreed to hold a grand wedding to welcome his empress. Unlike previous emperors, Qin Li had no interest in women. The concubines in his harem were mostly forced upon him by others. He accepted them all but never touched them. When he was in a bad mood, he would even have those who annoyed him dragged out and beheaded, regardless of their status.

Over time, no one dared to offer their daughters to him anymore.

But now, he had personally asked for this empress, which meant the issue of heirs was finally resolved.

Speaking of the empress, the officials were quite curious. Previously, the emperor and Prince An were inseparable, leading them to believe that the emperor would remain heirless. Unexpectedly, things took a turn, and he decided to take an empress. Although the empress's background wasn't perfect, it wasn't a big deal.

However, they were too naive. On the wedding day, when they went to pay their respects to the empress and saw her breathtaking beauty, they were all shocked.

This, this was clearly Prince An! Don't think they wouldn't recognize him just because he was dressed as a woman! However, no matter how much they roared in their hearts, no one dared to question, let alone object.

The wedding ceremony was long and complicated, with rituals, kneeling, and finally, bowing to heaven and earth. By the end, Su Tang was exhausted.

However, this wasn't the most tiring part. The most tiring part was after nightfall. Qin Li entered, bathed in moonlight. He followed the customs, elegant and composed, without a hint of urgency. First, he lifted her veil, then shared the nuptial wine with her, and finally even asked if she was hungry.

Of course, Su Tang was starving, having barely eaten all day.

Qin Li patiently removed her heavy crown and helped her freshen up. He didn't let anyone else touch her. His movements were a little clumsy, but his gentleness made up for it. Throughout the process, Su Tang was very comfortable.

Su Tang initially thought that Qin Li's dark aura had finally dissipated with the decrease in his blackening value. However, when she looked up after eating, her scalp went numb. This wasn't gentleness, but clearly the patience of a ferocious beast before it pounced!

She trembled and instinctively wanted to back away, but he beckoned her and said softly, "Yi Bao'er, come here."

Although he was smiling and his tone was extremely gentle, Su Tang was frightened and took a few steps back.

"Qin, Qin Li, how about we make a deal?"

Su Tang, who feared nothing and no one, had finally met her match. After realizing that Qin Li's feelings for her were not ordinary, she had guessed that this day would come. She had prepared for so long, but when the day arrived, she was scared.

It would be better if he just stabbed her with a knife!

The bridal chamber wasn't big. Where could Su Tang run to?

Not only that, but on their wedding night, he actually brought a pile of books. When Su Tang saw them, she felt even worse. He was smiling wickedly, studying the positions described in the books.

"Yi Bao'er, let's try these too. Look, you were the one who proclaimed that we had to follow the books, wouldn't it be a shame to disappoint you?"

Su Tang: "...Get lost."

Su Tang had no recollection of when it ended. When she woke up, there was no one beside her. She blinked, looking at the dim light outside the window, feeling as if her entire body had been crushed by a heavy object. Her stomach was also rumbling with hunger.

She didn't call for anyone immediately but asked the system, "Dog, how much blackening value is left?"

System: "2% remaining. It decreased by 3% after the wedding ceremony yesterday."

Su Tang felt even more aggrieved. She had been used and had even personally participated in a live-action cosplay, yet it only decreased by 3%!

"Men are truly pigs!"

She blurted out in anger, only then realizing how hoarse her voice was.

Her weak voice alerted the servants outside, but the next moment, Qin Li appeared and dismissed all the maids.

With Qin Li's possessive nature, how could he bear to let others see his little empress in her current state?

Not only that, but in the days to come, Su Tang's daily life was almost entirely taken care of by him. He even decided against having children, worried that pregnancy would harm her health. In the end, he adopted a child from Qin An Jian.

Speaking of which, Qin An Jian's wife was Qi Yun. Qin Li, that petty man, couldn't stand their significance in Su Tang's heart. After bestowing the marriage, he sent them away to their fiefdom, forbidding them from returning to the capital without permission. If not for the need for an heir, he probably wouldn't have wanted them back in the palace.

Human lifespans were limited. Even the male lead of the world, when his hair turned gray, would eventually face the day he departed from this world.

It was a particularly sunny day. Su Tang had transformed from a young fairy to an old woman with wrinkles. Clutching the old hand on the bed, her eyes held a hint of sorrow. "You've controlled my diet all my life. Once you're gone, I'm going to have the imperial kitchen prepare roasted meat, spicy hot pot, and all sorts of handsome young scholars."

Qin Li was old, his eyes clouded, but the way he looked at her had never changed.

He smiled at her. "It's alright. The moment I die, I'll issue an edict to have you buried with me. We'll share the same bed in life and the same tomb in death. In this lifetime, you're not allowed to go anywhere except by my side."

Su Tang clicked her tongue, scolding him for being overbearing, but her eyes welled up with tears.

She didn't truly love him, but after spending so much time together, she did have feelings for him. Qin Li knew this, but he never got greedy, or rather, he forced himself not to be too greedy. He had her person; it didn't matter if her heart wasn't fully his. After all, she couldn't go anywhere except by his side.

Qin Li eventually died in Su Tang's arms. After his death, a eunuch arrived to announce the imperial edict. Su Tang was calm, even waiting for someone to come and send her on her way. After all, with Qin Li's temperament, he was truly capable of having her buried with him.

However, after the eunuch finished reading, there was nothing about a burial companion.

"He didn't ask for me to be buried with him?"

She murmured, and finally, Qin An Jian's son rushed over, crying and saying, "Aunt, the emperor issued a decree long ago. After his death, he wouldn't be buried in the imperial mausoleum. He wanted you to keep his ashes with you until... until you pass away, and then you'll be buried together."

Over the years, Qin An Jian's son had been raised by Su Tang's side and treated her like his own mother. His tears were genuine.

Upon hearing this, Su Tang laughed.

"Ding, blackening value has decreased to 0%. Points for this world have been successfully unfrozen."
