C3 Substitute Marriage

"If you want to follow my woman, you have to be unafraid of death." With a slight smile on his lips, he looked down at the woman's pale face and spoke word by word, "Are you afraid of death?"

A cold sweat broke out on her back – a man had grabbed her by the throat and asked if she was afraid of death. This was something she had never encountered before!

She stood there in a daze, completely forgetting to reply. However, Xuanyuan Luo's fingers tightened bit by bit, and just as she was about to beg for her life, he suddenly exerted force and — "Ka-cha!" The bones in his neck broke on the spot.

"Ah!" Hong'er screamed as she watched the corpse of Lu Yi slip from Nangong Jin's hands. Suddenly, her legs gave out and she fell onto the ground.

She had never seen such a cruel scene.

"Do you still want to follow?" Xuanyuan Luo wiped his hands and sneered at Hong'er, who was in the corner, before stepping out of the room …

Third Marquis Mansion.

A luxurious carriage stopped at the door. Chi Feng stood there and carefully helped the pale man in purple off the carriage before sending him into the palace.

Xuanyuan Xun acted like he was powerless and entered the hall with the help of Chi Feng. He saw that the butler was already standing at the entrance of the hall, waiting for him.

"Your Highness!" The butler respectfully called out and then dismissed the maidservants and attendants beside him.

"Right." Xuanyuan Xun nodded and let go of Chi Feng's arm, his gait regaining its steadiness as he walked over and sat down.

Since the manor had other people's eyes and ears, it naturally had its own confidant. In front of the eyes and ears of others, he had to pretend to be sick, but now in front of his trusted aides, he could do whatever he wanted!

"The princesses of the neighboring kingdoms have already arrived at the borders of the Xuanyuan Empire." The steward frowned, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Your Royal Highness, do you really want to marry her?"

"The princesses of the neighboring kingdoms have already arrived at the borders of the Xuanyuan Empire." The steward frowned, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Your Royal Highness, do you really want to marry her?"

"Royal father, you mean, how can this king not marry?" Xuanyuan Luo gave a wry smile before stepping forward and patting the butler on the shoulder. "Don't worry, I can handle it."

He understood the meaning behind the steward's words — if the princesses of the neighboring countries were spies and people of Xuanyuan Luo's side, then his own situation would be even more difficult. Then, things would be even more difficult …

"But …" The steward couldn't bear it. The prince had been pretending to be sick for so many years, but how could those people still be so vicious?

"Regardless of what the neighboring countries think, by marrying the princess to This King, it is equivalent to handing over half of the military authority to This King." Pursing his lips, Xuanyuan Luo's eyes flashed with a cold light. "This king is also not a person who will sit still and wait for death."

There were always two sides to it.

As for him, he was someone who was adept at using both sides of his personality.

The grand wedding was held as scheduled.

Since the princess came from a neighbouring country, her home could only be used as a post house. Early in the morning, the Wang Mansion's big red bridal sedan was waiting at the entrance of the inn. Such a large display of grandeur caused the commoners along the way to be secretly speechless.

It was just that — Marrying the Third Marquis would only make the princess of a neighbouring country suffer!

The Third Marquis' health was not good, but he had a weird personality. He wanted to know if this princess of a neighboring country could live on.

Su Yun sat in the bridal sedan, listening to the discussions of the commoners, the smile on her face became wider and wider — It seems like in the eyes of the commoners, her husband could be considered a monster!

She was looking forward to this … What level could he blame?

Huo'Er jumped up from under the chair, and nudged Su Yun's arms. She stretched out her furry claws, wanting to pick up her red hair.

"Little Flame, this is for your highness, and your husband!" Su Yun laughed and rubbed the tip of the wolf fox's nose, keeping its claws. Hearing its dissatisfied whimpering, she rubbed its head a few times, then calmed it down.

"Descending palanquin!" When the wangfei arrives, please kick the door of the sedan! " The nanny's sharp voice came out from outside the palanquin, causing it to land steadily on the ground. Su Yun quickly hid Little Flame and sat down obediently.

As she waited, she became curious – was the sickly King Crake able to kick open the door of the sedan and carry her inside?

One second, two seconds …

Su Yun quietly waited. He slightly lifted a corner of the red veil and looked at the door that did not budge an inch.

But hearing the voices outside, it seemed to be very harmonious … There was no hubbub of discussion about the future of the groom...

"Cough, cough, cough …" After a long while, Su Yun finally heard a burst of cough, and someone at the side said considerately, "Your Royal Highness, slow down …"

"Cough, cough, cough …"

Su Yun couldn't help but roll his eyes. He was really slow when people told him to slow down!

"This King can..." "Cough, cough, cough …" There was another intense cough, but the sound was getting closer and closer to Su Yun.

Su Yun immediately put down the red veil, placed her small hands on her knees and sat down obediently.

After a long while, the door of the sedan opened with a "dong" sound! Judging from this voice, it was probably kicked by the sickly King. The others pushed it away hastily …

According to the procedure, the next step should be for the prince to carry the new wangfei into the palace. However, taking into account the prince's health, the nanny had a difficult expression on her face.

It would be unlucky if he didn't take it with his back, but this really made the prince take it with him …
