Like, I don't know about ancient China so some stuff I will just make up, and everything might not be correct

Five hours had passed, and Piper was currently on her way to the wedding place in a sedan. What was she doing in the sedan you ask? Sleeping of course.
Remember that she could sleep with her eyes open and while standing or sitting? Yeah, that was what she was doing right now
She woke up early and Qiqi would not let her sleep at all. She couldn't even pretend to be awake but actually sleeping because Qiqi would always talk to her, but now Qiqi was busy with other stuff, so she finally had the time to rest.
"Miss, we're here" Qiqi lightly knocked on the sedan. She was very excited for her miss
"Mmm," Piper woke up and responded tiredly. She wanted to sleep. Piper shook her head to get rid of the drowsiness and pinched herself. She blinked a few times and slowly opened the curtain. She looked at Qiqi and took her hand before going out of the sedan
Qiqi led the way into the hall while supporting Piper's hand. Piper was quiet the whole time as she was exhausted from just waking up.
"Miss you must do well later" Qiqi squeezed Piper's hand tighter with a big smile on her face
Having her hand squeezed very hard, woke Piper up, "En."

"Bow to heaven and Earth."
Piper held the knot and bowed to Heaven and Earth. She looked at her soon-to-be husband and smirked. She was definitely going to stab him
Is this my husband, PINK? He looks quite good even though I can't see much because of this red veil
[No, this is Mo Fan's personal guard, Hu Ge]
Hu Ge? Like that actor? Wait a sec. This is not MO FAN!? He did not attend? This is so embarrassing! How dares he get a substitute!? I'll stab both of them!
Piper clenched the red cloth harder as she gritted her teeth. She was the one who did not want to get married! How dare they shame her like this?!
"Bow to your parents. Bow to each other"
Piper bowed to her "husband" with anger shooting out from her eyes like laser beams. They both slowly walked towards the bridal chamber in silence. When they were inside Piper lifted her head and looked at Hu Ge
"Get your master here, or else I'll cripple you" She threatened him. She was going to kill Mo Fan the moment she saw him
"What are you talking about?" Hu Ge acted like he was clueless. He was quite impressed that the girl knew that he was not her husband
"Hu Ge, you know very well what I'm talking about" Piper's face went darker by the second
"Hmph! My master does not want to marry you so stop acting shamelessly! Don't even think about sleeping with him!" Hu Ge dropped his act and scoffed. Who was this low-class lady to marry his awesome master? Only someone as brilliant as him could marry his master
"Hu Ge. Age 18. Loves the color pink and stuff meant for women such as embroidery. Dresses up as a girl in his free time whenever he's alone. Goes to the brothel and acts like one of the brothel ladies. In the brothel, he is also known as Meimei. In front of the public, he acts all scholarly and manly, earning him a massive fanbase. Has a huge crush on..." Piper smiled wickedly as she read the fact she got from PINK, "Has a huge crush on his childhood friend, Liu Tianyu AKA my brother."
"You-you!" Hu Ge stuttered as he backed away a few steps.
"Hu Ge, one of the most respected men in the kingdom, actually dresses up as a girl and that's not all. He. Loves. MEN!" Piper laughed out loud as she enjoyed the despair radiating out from Hu Ge's body. Who told him to mess with her?
"Don't you dare tell this to anyone" Hu Ge looked at Piper with horror. How did she know?
"Oh I will if you don't get Mo Fan's ass to come here" Piper smirked, "If you don't then I'll just scream it out loud so that everybody will know."
"Okay, okay! Don't tell anyone!" Hu Ge let out a few tears as he stared at the female demon in front of him. Yes, he loved dressing up as a woman. Yes, he loved a man. The image that everyone else had of him was totally fake! If they find out then he wouldn't know what would happen.
Maybe he would get burned on a pole for being gay? It was seen as an illness after all. And his parents would kill him. Absolutely.
He looked down at the floor before running outside. He did not want to see the female demon. He ran into Mo Fan's study room and looked at him.
Mo Fan had a dark and cold face just like usual, but Hu Ge could see that he was mad even though a mask was covering half of Mo Fan's face. Hu Ge also remembered that there was a demon worse than that female demon. Sure, he was scared of the female demon but the man in front of him, he was terrified of.
"What?" Mo Fan tapped his finger on the table as he looked at Hu Ge who had a pale face
"It's like t-t-this. She knows my secret and threatened me that she would tell..." Hu Ge stopped and looked up at Mo Fan's face. He cried internally after realizing that Mo Fan gave zero sh*ts about the situation
"Hmm" Mo Fan didn't say anything and just looked back at Hu Ge with dark eyes.
"She wants to meet... you" Hu Ge's voice was so quiet that even a mosquito was louder. He looked down at the floor again
"Then I'll go meet her" Mo Fan smiled evily as he stood up from his chair
Hu Ge just stared at him with no words to say. Did Mo Fan actually care about him? Was he (MF) going to meet her just because she threatened him (HG)? Was he finally acknowledged by him (MF)?
Hu Ge smiled happily as he celebrated in his heart. It seemed like his master did care about him after all.
But the truth was, of course, nothing like Hu Ge thought. Mo Fan wanted to see this girl who had the nerves to summon him. The situation with Hu Ge he did not care about.
###
Piper tapped her feet on the ground while sitting on the uncomfortable bed. She had waited for 10 minutes now so why weren't they coming? Did they actually plan to ignore her?
Piper grabbed the blanket on the bed with anger. They dare ignore her?
But soon she heard a few footsteps. She smiled and released the blanket before putting her hands on her knees like an obedient little girl.
The doors opened, and two men came in. The man walking in front had an icy face and a mask covering half of his face vertically while the other was a few steps behind him with his head down
Piper couldn't see her husband's face, but she guessed that it must be quite handsome from the rumors she heard about him. He was the country's number one handsome man, but that was not going to stop her from stabbing him
"Toot can get out of here" Piper looked towards Hu Ge. Things were about to get violent, and she did not want to have this innocent boy her (A/N: "Toot" is the Thai slang for "Gay" and because I'm Thai, I'm just going to call him that)
Mo Fan waved his signaling for Hu Ge to get out. Hu Ge did as he said and backed out of the room before closing the doors
"Come closer," Piper said to her husband. Mo Fan just smirked as he walked closer. He wondered what this little lady was going to do. Was she going to seduce him like every other lady?
"Closer" Piper said with annoyance. Mo Fan leaned down so that his face was only a few centimeters apart from hers. Piper smirked and reached out for one of her hairpins with lightning speed. She grabbed it and stabbed it towards Mo Fan's neck. He was so going to die for shaming her, and wouldn't she be doing a favor towards the world since he was a demon?
Mo Fan just stared at her with amusement. Only when the hairpin was about to stab him did he grab it. He gripped it harder with his fingers, and it ended up being crushed into pieces.
Piper just stared with slight shock. She had the fighting skills of a master so why couldn't she kill this man? She had also been an alien before that fought and killed countless people
[He's just stronger *Shrugs shoulders*]
Piper gritted her teeth again. How come she is always under someone even though she gets all of these skills?
"Tch, tch, tch. Can't believe they sent such a useless assassin" Mo Fan smirked again and straightened his back.
"I'm not an assassin," Piper said
"Then what are you?" Mo Fan asked with no curiosity. It seemed like he didn't want to know who she was at all
"Your wife" Piper smiled unhappily, "But I'm going to kill you so that I don't have to be your wife because I don't want to. Just like you" Piper just admitted everything. What was there to hide?
"Hm"
"So why don't we collaborate. We get a divorce. I will be happy and you too" Piper said, "Or else I'm just going to kill you."
"Do you have the ability to?" Mo Fan bent down again and grabbed Piper's chin. Piper just stared at him with anger. No, she didn't have the f*cking ability to kill him because PINK was useless and didn't give her the sufficient skills.
"How is it my fault, ah? I just took the martial arts package and transferred to your brain."
"Let go." Piper grabbed his wrist and took it away from her chin.
"I don't want to divorce you anymore, wife" Mo Fan smiled while staring at Piper. It seemed like he had found an interesting little toy. It would be a shame to not play with it for a while
"Who's your wife!"
"You. Didn't you say that a few seconds ago?" Mo Fan walked to a chair and sat down.
Piper just looked up at the sky (even though she was under a roof) with despair. She did indeed say that she was his wife. Why did she say it? And why does she have to be stuck with this man? She didn't want to!
"Wife, I'm going now. I won't touch you yet" Mo Fan stood up but paused before going, "I have to remove this before officially becoming your husband" He smiled and walked up to Piper and pointed at her crown.
He lifted it up and put it on a table. He looked at her face while silently admiring it. It looked like his toy wasn't so bad looking.
Piper also stared back at him with anger, but it soon went away when she saw his face. Even though only half was visible, she could see how handsome he was. Maybe she should accept the marriage after all? Having a husband like him wouldn't be too bad
"Looks like we have matching eyes" Mo Fan nodded with satisfaction after seeing her getting lost in his face, "Maybe we're a match made in heaven?"
"No!" Piper shook her head and got out from her trance. She refused to marry this man who she didn't even love. His looks might have charmed her for a while, but that was it!
"Goodbye now" Mo Fan walked out of the room with his cold face.
Piper looked at the doors and pointed her middle finger at the leaving figure, "F*ck you. I am not going to stay in this marriage for long, boy."

Lel, I was on a break for a few days. But I actually did useful stuff. I watched Chinese Dramas, so now I have learned more about ancient China.
Thank you guys for nearly 30k views!!! I so happy.
This husband-sama ↑. As I said before, I have no sense of beauty so I don't know what's ugly and handsome. But Mo Fan is the most handsome guy this arc so if he isn't handsome enough then imagine him for handsome.
Creds to the person who drew this picture! I only made some small edits like last time (Made eyes purple, lips, ring on his finger and made his hair darker) but otherwise, this picture belongs to the person who drew it!
Crown prince ↑
Hu Ge ↑
Creds to people who drew these! I only edited Mo Fan's picture!
Love ya'll
-Yours Truly,
