Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Inside the Tong Residence, there was a row of tables in the courtyard that were covered with red cloth. Regardless of whether it was the walls or the trees, they were decorated with lanterns and lights. The entire atmosphere was very festive.

However, the current atmosphere in the courtyard wasn’t festive at all.

The empress sat quietly on the chair and tapped her fingers.

Boom… Boom… Boom… Every time she tapped, the table would become shorter by one centimeter, and the ground would tremble as well.

“Tong Zhenye, what else do you have to say?” the empress asked faintly.

Her tone was flat and her expression was calm, but no one was able to relax at all.

Instantly, Tong Zhenye’s pupils rotated as quickly as a carousel.

“Hmm, it’s a bachelor’s party! After all, when the grand wedding is over, Zhao Prince Consort’s identity will be different. It will be almost impossible for him to drink and visit brothels as and when he likes. I also had to warn him about certain issues as Your Majesty is the ruler of the aboriginals. If Zhao Prince Consort were to womanize again, I definitely won’t let him off! Unfortunately, drinking alcohol was a big mistake, but thankfully, nothing big happened! Hehe…”

Initially, Tong Zhenye was speaking very slowly, but toward the end, he spoke quickly and even laughed.

Ren Baqian, who was standing at the side, was dumbstruck. He knew he was in deep sh*t.

This world’s bachelor’s party was invented by Tong Zhenye just like that?

Furthermore, who was the one who dragged him to the brothel? This old b*stard, do you still have any conscience?

Who said that the aboriginals were all pure?

“Is there such a thing as a bachelor’s party?” The empress looked to the side

If it were a normal day, regardless of the reason, Tong Zhenye would have been sent flying immediately, However, it was her big day after all, so she decided to give him a chance!

“No!” Someone with a loud voice shouted from the crowd, “Your Majesty, there’s no such thing!, Old Man Tong is lying to you!”

Originally, everyone noticed that the empress’s tone was getting softer and heaved a sigh of relief. However, after hearing these words, they instantly swept their gazes across.

Qin Chuan, who was covered in dirt, smiled until his gums were showing.

“Qin Chuan, you old b*stard, what are you doing here? I didn’t invite you to my Tong Residence, and it’s Her Majesty’s grand wedding. You actually came to make a scene?” Tong Zhenye flew into a rage.

“I was just passing by…” Qin Chuan laughed mischievously. “I’ll take my leave!”

“Stop there!” The empress’s face turned cold. All the events today were prearranged. They were supposed to set off in the morning and rest temporarily at the Tong Residence. During this period of time, it was natural for only the officials from the Ministry of Rites and the people from the Tong Residence to be present.

Qin Chuan actually passed by here?

Hah!

“Pass two of those pickaxes to both of them,” the empress said without any expression.

Everyone stared at one another.

The empress continued, “Still not moving?”

“Your Majesty, I have been maligned. If I were to be punished, shouldn’t Zhao Prince Consort be punished too?” At this moment, Tong Zhenye still had evil thoughts. In any case, Her Majesty had changed long ago… He simply wanted to drag Zhao Prince Consort along to be punished.

After all, Tong Zhenye was a Cardinal Heaven expert, so getting buried was no big deal to him.

Zhao Prince Consort, however, was only a Kismet Heaven expert!

The empress glared at him coldly.

After pondering for some time, Ren Baqian curiously asked, “Your Majesty, you actually know what a pickaxe is?”

Instantly, the teacup in front of the empress flew out.

It smashed into Tong Zhenye’s head.

“Bring three pickaxes!”

“Your majesty, I have been wronged!” Ren Baqian immediately cried out his grievance.

The plate in front of the empress was sent flying as well.

Similarly, it smashed into Tong Zhenye’s head.

Tong Zhenye felt extremely wronged.

Ten minutes later, the empress pointed at a corner of the wall and ordered, “Dig!”

“Your Majesty, it’s a joyous occasion…” The Minister of Rites, Xuan Hua, spoke up out of loyalty.

“Add another pickaxe!” the empress said without even looking up.

“It’s a joyous occasion, yet they still made a scene. They should be punished!” Xuan Hua actually tweaked his words so smoothly that there wasn’t even a pause.

Ren Baqian calmed his mind and thought, Bury me then. My head will still be above ground anyway.

The three of them began to dig three holes in a well-behaved manner!

“You and you, get in!” The empress pointed at Tong Zhenye and Qin Chuan.

She then pointed at Ren Baqian and said, “You are in charge of burying them!”

On the day of his own grand wedding, Ren Baqian was wearing a new set of festive clothes and piling layers of soil which needed to be compacted one after another. It took a lot of effort, and the two who were being buried sneered while looking at him.

In any case, after burying us, it’ll be your turn to be buried! So what if you are enjoying your time now? You’ll receive the same treatment as us in no time!

After Ren Baqian buried both of them, he noticed that the empress was silent and decided to stand to one side in a well-behaved manner.

He wondered if he should take off his shirt or not when he jumped into the pit later on.

Five minutes passed…

15 minutes passed…

Everyone was waiting for the next step, but the empress closed her eyes and rested.

Only Tong Zhenye’s head was above the soil. First, he sneered. Then, he was full of anticipation. Soon after, he felt that something was amiss. Eventually, he was full of grievance.

“Your Majesty, Zhao Prince Consort is still standing there!” he complained

“Stand there in a well-behaved manner!” the empress commanded in a cold voice.

Tong Zhenye and Qin Chuan’s faces turned ghastly pale as they thought, Your Majesty, this is very unfair!

The people from the Ministry of Rites nearly burst out in laughter.

Ren Baqian looked down at both of them and was overjoyed. If only he could sing the Mandopop song, “We Are Different!”

Tong Zhenye’s goal was to drag him down, whereas Qin Chuan’s goal was to drag Tong Zhenye down. Both of them got their just desserts!

At this time, the empress was also rather depressed. Originally, even though she was a bit nervous about the grand wedding, she was somewhat anticipating it.

Yet, looking at the situation now, the grand wedding had been disrupted by these few people!

The empress wondered, Am I usually too benevolent? If it wasn’t for the wedding banquet tonight, I would definitely hang both of them from the top of the city wall!

On the contrary, those from the Ministry of Rites were well received. As for these two old good-for-nothings, they should have been taught a lesson long ago.

The people of the Tong Residence were feeling helpless.

Only the little lolita, Tong Lan, was in high spirits. In the future, she wanted to be as authoritative as the empress!

They spent the entire afternoon at the Tong Residence with Ren Baqian standing while Tong Zhenye and Qin Chuan remained buried and full of grievance.

Xuan Hua moved toward the empress and said, “Your Majesty, the time is almost ripe! Prepare to return!”

Ren Baqian, who was originally looking down, subconsciously shifted his gaze over.

The empress gave him a death stare, and the meaning was very clear: “If you dare to create any more trouble, watch out!”

In general, most males would be carrying the female in their arms after the ceremony. This was to show off their strength and to flaunt the fact that they had managed to snatch their brides.

However, what should they do now?

“Your Majesty, why not let me carry you?” Ren Baqian felt that it was time for him to perform! He felt that he had some skills at the princess carry!

The empress placed one hand on his waist, used a fraction of her strength, and Ren Baqian immediately spun 90 degrees in midair. He was now in the empress’s arms…

A woman of around 50 kilograms carried a burly man who was around 150 kilograms and walked out of the Tong Residence just like that.

Many of the onlookers outside had gone home to eat, but they rushed back and cheered loudly when they saw the empress!

The visitors from the Yun Nation were also observing from afar.

“He doesn’t have any shame!”

“Zhao Prince Consort? Hehe!”

Everyone was looking down on him.

“I’m rather envious though!” someone suddenly said.

Everyone’s gazes shifted to his face before distancing themselves three meters away.

Even though 99 percent of the guys were envious… could these words be spoken?

Many guys subconsciously placed themselves in Ren Baqian’s shoes. They then thought of the empress’s status, her power, and her gracefulness. How could they not be envious of him!
