It's a dark and windy night, a good time to escape from marriage.
…
Li Shushu was originally the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Jin'an. Three years ago, she met the third prince Xia Muyu by chance at a Lantern Festival. She caught his eye and they fell in love with each other.
Not long after, Xia Muyu asked the emperor in front of the palace to grant them a marriage.
We were planning to get married tomorrow.
But unexpectedly...
After being reborn, Li Shushu was unwilling to marry Xia Muyu no matter what.
In her previous life, she naively thought that Xia Muyu really fell in love with her at first sight and was attracted to her, so he asked to marry her.
So she happily put on her wedding dress, and under the gaze of her whole family, she got on the wedding sedan and became the consort of the third prince.
Who would have thought that after a night of passion, while Xia Muyu was attending court, the bedroom door was kicked open by a beautiful and somewhat arrogant woman.
The woman said her name was Bai Bingjing, and she was the granddaughter of the general who defended the country. She was originally the prince's fiancée, but she did not like the prince. She had been married to Xia Muyu for a long time, but had not made it public.
The woman said that the Third Prince did not like her, but only valued her clean family background, which could reassure the person in power.
Tell Li Shushu not to have the idea of monopolizing the Third Prince. The only person the Third Prince truly loves is herself, and only the national defender General Bai Fu can truly help the Third Prince.
Crown Prince Xia Muyan was twenty-three years old. He went out hunting three years ago and has been missing ever since.
Three years later, people all over the country, from court officials to ordinary people, suspected that the prince had met with an accident. They wrote to the emperor one after another to appoint another prince, but the emperor still refused to give in.
No one is found alive, and no one has found the body after death. As a result, Bai Bingjing is now stuck in the position of the future Crown Princess.
The third prince first secretly climbed up the powerful Bai Mansion with the help of his mother, the Imperial Noble Consort, and then openly and openly asked the emperor to marry Li Shushu.
I naturally thought that I had both the money and the reputation, and was enjoying the best of both worlds.
Little did he know that by doing this, he was actually roasting the two women, especially Li Shushu, on the fire.
A heart that was full of joy just a moment ago suddenly sank to the bottom.
From then on, Li Shushu was angry and completely disappointed in her husband. Even though Xia Muyu occasionally came to her room later, she didn't like him very much.
She had proposed divorce to Xia Muyu, but Xia Muyu disagreed. As a prince, how could he save face if he asked for divorce just a few days after his wedding?
Besides, theirs was a marriage granted by the Emperor.
The Li family has been noble for generations and has a good reputation in the court and the country. They neither take sides nor have real power.
As a prince who seems to have no ambition, it is natural for him to marry such a good girl, which will win the emperor's favor.
Therefore, even if he and Bai Bingjing had been secretly in love for a long time, it was absolutely impossible for him to propose to Bai Bingjing now.
After all, the Bai family has been practicing martial arts for generations. When General Bai was young, he expanded the territory for the Great Xia Dynasty and was named a first-rank general, holding military power. If he, an ordinary prince, goes to ask for marriage, he will probably arouse the emperor's suspicion and doubt.
Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, Bai Bingjing's best destination is the current crown prince Xia Muyan.
Unfortunately, the matchmaker might have been drunk when he was tying the red threads, and he managed to mess up these two marriages that should have been smooth and well-matched.
In her previous life, Li Shushu was brought up in the etiquette of a wealthy and aristocratic family. Although she was unwilling to share her husband with others, she was not so resolute in doing things.
She was angry that the Third Prince had deceived her and had an affair with someone else before she got married. But after she proposed a divorce and the other party refused, she could only endure it temporarily for the sake of her family.
It was not until later that she was found to be pregnant - she only had one chance, on the wedding night, but she was able to get pregnant, which shows her fertility.
Since I'm pregnant, I have no choice but to endure it.
However, she never expected that Bai Bingjing would take action just when she was about to give birth.
She bribed the midwife and herself to be in the delivery room together. When she was not prepared for delivery, she was forced to force a bowl of unknown medicine into her mouth, killing her and two others on the spot.
The Third Prince, who rushed over in a hurry, just shook his head at Bai Bingjing after seeing the tragic scene, but did not blame her too much.
Li Shushu remembered that expression vividly: it was as if just a little animal in his yard had unfortunately died in childbirth. It was a bit of a pity, but not much...
Li Shushu was reborn three days before her wedding.
Now that she remembered everything about her past life, she would definitely not get married.
But it was too late to cancel the engagement. The Marquis's Mansion was very strict and he also had to save face.
Besides, the marriage bestowed by the emperor was not something she could just choose not to go.
She didn't want to burden her family.
After her rebirth, for some reason, no one told her, but she just knew that she was different.
She raised her wrist, and a watch appeared out of thin air on her wrist. She casually swiped it and found a lot of good things inside.
She calmed herself down and quickly tapped the "Koi Talisman".
With her good luck, she felt more confident about what she was going to do next.
At the same time, a small note that did not belong to this era fell from the air. She picked it up and took a look: "Find the prince, and give birth to a son to ascend to the throne."
After reading it, she threw it into her mouth and chewed it.
Swallowed it.
She decided to run away from the marriage.
Since the Third Prince was unkind to her in her previous life, she should not blame her for being unjust this time.
Not only did she want to escape the marriage, but she also wanted to escape on the eve of the wedding because she needed time to prepare.
If one wants to escape the marriage without bringing trouble to the Marquis's Mansion, then there is only one way: pretend to be kidnapped.
Lian'er is her personal maid, they grew up together and she is smart and loyal.
