Seeing that Dongfang Shan's attitude towards her and Mu Qianxue was completely different, Shen Xijun couldn't help but feel infuriated. She ignored Zhao Pingqing's obstruction and shouted, "You're not allowed to leave!"

Dongfang Bing stopped and said in disgust, "What else do you want?"

Shen Xijun raised her delicate chin and arrogantly said, "Accompany me to Mei Shan!"

"Not interested!" This time, Dongfang Shan didn't even bother to find an excuse and directly refused.

"You!" Shen Xijun clenched her fist in anger. Zhao Pingqing was afraid that things would get out of hand again. She quickly came to her side and said in a low voice, "Sister, forget it. If you really want to go to Mei Shan, I'll go with you."

"Go away!" Shen Xijun didn't appreciate her kindness and pushed her away. Zhao Pingqing lost her balance and fell backwards. The maid screamed and tried to pull him, but she was too late.

Zhao Pingqing closed her eyes in fear. She was waiting for the pain to come, but it didn't hurt as much as she thought. To be exact, it only hurt her waist a little.

Zhao Pingqing opened his eyes curiously. His eyes were as black as jade. When she clearly saw who those eyes belonged to, her face immediately turned red. She quickly got away from Dongfang Gu's arms and shyly said, "Thank you, my lord."

From start to finish, he did not even glance at Shen Xijun once. Such neglect caused the latter to be even more furious and he rushed in front of Dongfang Zhi, shouting with a face full of frost, "Stand still!"

Dongfang Shou was forced to stop and knit his brows tightly. "Are you done yet?"

"I want you to accompany me to Mei Shan!" At this moment, rather than saying that she wanted to see a mountain full of plum blossoms, it would be better to say that she wanted to choke on something. She did not allow herself to lose to Mu Qianxue.

"Impossible!"

Although she already knew that Dongfang Yan didn't love her, Shen Xijun still felt a stinging sensation from those three words. Tears uncontrollably welled up in her eyes, wetting her long and thin eyelashes.

Just as Dongfang Gu was about to circle around her, Shen Xijun suddenly said, "Do you think you can avoid me for the rest of my life? "You're wrong, the empress dowager has already …"

Dongfang Shou indifferently took over her words. "You agreed to give us a marriage, right?"

"You … How do you know? " Shen Xijun's cherry lips slightly opened as she looked at Dongfang Zhi with a face full of astonishment. This matter was only settled yesterday, she had only told those close to her before, how would Dongfang Zhi know? What about my aunt?

She quickly rejected the idea, and it was clear to her that Dongfang's aunt would not tell him until the wedding was set.

"Even if the empress dowager were to grant us a marriage, I wouldn't marry you. Shen Xijun, just give up on this thought!"

After throwing down those words, he did not stay any longer. After helping Mu Qianxue onto the carriage, he got back on the horse and slowly headed towards King Rui's Mansion.

Shen Xijun stood there in a daze until Dongfang Shimeng and his men disappeared from sight. She then realized that she was not listening to the passersby, but rather crouched down with her head in her hands and let out a shriek. Every scream was accompanied by a tear that fell into the snow.

All of the frustration, pain, and sadness in her life had been caused by Dongfang Yan. And yet … It was as if she was possessed, unable to shake off his shadow no matter how hard she tried.

Zhao Pingqing couldn't bear to see her like this. She comforted her, "Sister, calm down. The king …" I think what he said was just words of anger, so don't take it to heart. "

A'Zi also followed to persuade her. "That's right. The empress dowager is the one in charge of this marriage. How could King Rui not agree? Unless he doesn't want to die."

Her words caused Zhao Pingqing's expression to slightly change. However, she quickly returned to her original appearance and she continuously advised Shen Xijun. Under their consolation, Shen Xijun's emotions gradually calmed down.

Zhao Pingqing wiped the tears from her face and said gently, "It's cold outside. I will help my sister back to the house. Don't think about anything else. Just get some good sleep and you'll be fine."

Zhao Pingqing wanted to retract her hand, but Shen Xijun fiercely grabbed her wrist. Shen Xijun's grip was very strong, and even though they were separated by a thick layer of winter clothes, Zhao Pingqing could feel the sharp nails.

Shen Xijun stared at her, and the coldness in her eyes intensified. She then said, "Speak, did you tell Big Brother Yang?" Thinking back and forth, only a few people knew about the wedding ceremony. Empress Dowager Wei, father, mother, brothers, Ah Zi, none of them had any reason to tell Dongfang Shou. Besides them, only Zhao Pingqing knew that the empress dowager was about to be married off.

Zhao Pingqing turned her face away and said uncomfortably, "I …" I don't know what my sister is talking about. "

Shen Xijun was even more sure about it now. She clenched the former's hand tightly and said while gnashing her teeth, "It really is you! Zhao Pingqing, how dare you!"

"I... I didn't. " Zhao Pingqing's face was deathly pale as beads of sweat appeared on her forehead. Her wrist that was being gripped by Shen Xijun looked as if it was about to break. It was unknown where she got this much strength from.

"You don't admit it?" Shen Xijun sneered and suddenly released her hand. She didn't wait for Zhao Ping to calm down. Her gloomy and cold voice sounded next to her ear, "Cut her hair. I'll see if she'll say it!"

Zhao Pingqing turned pale with fright. He knew that Shen Xijun was a proud and arrogant person, but she didn't expect her to cut her hair. No matter what, she was still a noble son of the Marquis.

A'Zi's face changed. Although it wouldn't hurt to cut his hair, his hair would still be a woman's life in this Zhou, so unless his hair was cut off, it definitely wouldn't be cut off. If he really did cut off Zhao Pingqing's hair in such a large crowd, he wouldn't need to see anyone else, not to mention getting married.

A'Zi summoned up the courage to persuade her, "Zong Ji, this … This might not be a good idea, maybe... It really has nothing to do with Miss Zhao! "

Shen Xijun glared at her and indifferently said, "After following me for a few years, your eyesight hasn't grown that much. You seem to have quite the guts. Do you want me to cut off your hair as well?"

"This servant doesn't dare!" Ah Zi hurriedly bowed her head in apology. "This servant will go find the scissors right now!"

"No!" Elder sister doesn't want it! " Zhao Pingqing was so scared that her face turned pale and she was about to cry.

Shen Xijun remained unmoved and urged Ah Zi and the others to look for the scissors. A short while later, Ah Zi came over with a handful of copper scissors.

Shen Xijun didn't take the scissors from Ah Zi. She immediately ordered, "Go, cut all of them for me. Not a single one is left!"

"Sectmaster has shown mercy!" "Sectmaster, please be merciful!" The two maids kneeled on the ground and begged for mercy as they faced Ah Zi, who was walking slowly towards them.
