The Imperial Prince's Mansion, wedding.

The big, red wedding characters were dazzlingly bright, the newly-married Shen Lu Mian staggered and was dragged into the bridal chamber by someone, being forcefully laid on the ground.

The excruciating pain from her knee made the woman under the red hat's eyes fly open.

In a daze, a cold gust of wind!

Then, Shen Lu felt a splitting headache. Memories flooded her mind.

"The auspicious time has come! Bow to Heaven and Earth!"

With a high-pitched voice, Shen Lu Mian was forcefully pushed down.

Underneath the canopy, Shen Lu slept and saw a big rooster tied with a red flower.

The Xuan Tie token hanging from his neck made his pupils dilate.

God of War Command!

“Oh, poor Miss Shen. I wonder who came up with this idea of a marriage by proxy? It's just cruel!”

"Don't talk nonsense. Miss Shen married in as the Crown Princess. A mere merchant, being able to marry into the royal family is a great honor."

But the Crown Prince has been missing for three months now, and we don't know if he is dead or alive... If the Crown Prince truly doesn't return, this Prince's Manor might be in peril...

"Shhh... I heard Miss Shen didn't want to get married. She was knocked unconscious and shoved into the bridal sedan!"

Arranged marriage?

As Shen Lu Mian came to, she instinctively struggled, but found herself powerless and with a sharp pain in the back of her head. ωＷＷ.166xs.cc

Ouch!

Drugged again!

Three months ago, the "War God" of the Holy Nation, King Chu Jingchen, was injured and fell off his horse during a battle with the Northern Su nation, and has not been heard from since.

The emperor sent people to search everywhere but couldn't find anyone. Finally, the national teacher came up with the idea of a marriage by proxy.

As long as the destined one of Prince Chen marries him in a formal ceremony, maybe we could find him.

"Shen Lu Mian" was chosen.

The Shen family ignored Shen Lu Mian's resistance, drugged and knocked her unconscious, and forcibly carried her onto the flower sedan.

But they were too heavy-handed, causing the original owner to die.

Let this wisp of apocalyptic soul, possess Shen Lu Mian's body!

Oh, War God?

What a coincidence! Isn't it?

In the apocalypse, no one dares disobey orders!

The burden on my shoulders suddenly increased.

"Sister, to marry the Crown Prince is a blessing you've earned through lifetimes of good deeds. Don't make trouble anymore."

Shen Miaoan's struggle to Shen Lu Mian, in a low voice.

"Right now, the Ren family doesn't care about you. You've offended the Chen Royal Manor, and you have only one path left: death. You better just marry him obediently, for a lifetime of wealth and splendor that will never run out!"

There was a gleam of triumph and ruthlessness in Shen Miaoan's eyes.

As the emcee declared, "Second bow to the elders," Shen Miao'an pressed Shen Lu Mian down hard once more.

Shen Miaoan has already inquired about it.

The King of the Palace has been missing for three months after falling into the river with his sword. How could he possibly still be alive?

As long as Shen Lu Mian marries this "dead man", all of the Shen family's assets can be her dowry!

She will surely marry into a prominent family and become the most dazzling daughter of the Shen family!

"May the couple bow!"

Shen Miaoan happily turned Shen Lu Mian's direction, eager for him to bow to the official.

Suddenly, the joyful sounds came to an abrupt halt!

"The Crown Prince...he is His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince!"

"His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, is back!"

Gasps echoed through the hall, one louder than the last, as all eyes turned to the man who had suddenly appeared in the wedding chamber.

He wore a dark ink-colored robe embroidered with golden thread, which didn't quite match the festive red of the wedding hall.

A cold, desolate aura enveloped Zhou, mixed with a heavy scent of killing intent!

Shen Miao was startled and turned her head.

The Crown Prince has actually returned?

Does a marriage of convenience really work?!
