Answer: He plans to execute his new bride.
Explanation:
In "Harun al-Rashid & One Thousand and One Nights", King Shahrayar of Persia was betrayed by his wife who had been unfaithful and in response he losses trust in all women such that he marries a woman every night and kills her in the morning so that she does not get a chance to kill him.
He does this for 3,000 nights until he meets the daughter of the Vizier, Scheherazade. She, being very knowledgeable, told him a different story every night but never finishes it so that he may keep her alive till the next night to hear the end. This was the only thing that kept her alive as he made plans to execute her every day.
