The Mute Bride’s Wedding Night Trap

On her wedding night, the new Crown Princess finds a torn note warning her not to tell Crown Prince Xiao Yan that her healed throat can speak again.

She lost her voice testing decoctions for his poison, and only today, after a divine doctor's care, can she speak while the court still thinks her mute.

When she calls him husband, she later wakes to the same red candles and the same warning, with the burn of a strangling grip still on her neck.

Will she keep the secret the note demands, or will one sound in the bridal chamber cost her the breath in her throat?
