When Xu Jinyi opened his eyes, all he saw was a bright red. His head felt as if it weighed a thousand pounds, and the place where he was standing was shaking violently.
Xu Jin was so panicked that she thought she had entered a horror world. She was so scared that she tore off the red veil covering her.
When she took it off and saw the mandarin ducks on the veil and the wedding dress on her body, she realized that she was in a wedding sedan chair.
The wedding dress she was wearing was silky smooth, with delicate embroidery, and the gold threads and pearls on it were of extraordinary quality.
You can tell at first glance that this body comes from a wealthy family, but wouldn't it be too exciting to get married right away?
"Xiao Qi, quickly pass the plot to me so I can see what the original owner's situation was like and what kind of family she married into."
Xu Jinyi thought that Xiaoqi was merciful this time and gave her a super simple task, which was to get married and have children right away.
After accepting the plot, Xu Jinyi's face turned dark.
It's so ridiculous, such a ridiculous plot.
What wedding, what happy event? Today is the most tragic day for the original owner.
Bad news came one after another unexpectedly. It seemed that her house had been raided and all the more than 300 members of the Xu family were thrown into jail awaiting their fate.
Xu Jinyi had a sullen face, and before he could scold Xiaoqi, the wedding sedan stopped.
There was a festive atmosphere outside, with the sound of the band, firecrackers, and the cheers of the crowd.
In just a moment, Xu Jinyi had already thought of a way to deal with it.
It is not wise to break off the engagement now. Only a daughter who marries out will not be implicated by her parents' family.
If she breaks off the engagement now, what awaits her is the confiscation of her wedding dress and she will be thrown into jail, and then no one will come to vindicate the Xu family.
So why not follow the original trajectory now, but this time, she won’t be as stupid as the original owner.
After the veil was put back on, the matchmaker's loud voice was heard.
"The auspicious time has arrived. Please, groom, kick the sedan door and welcome the bride!"
Watching the sedan door open, the man's hand reached in.
Looking at the big wheat-colored hand, a hint of coldness flashed across Xu Jinyi's eyes, but he still put his hand on it.
When Xu Jinyi walked out, the cheers from the crowd became louder.
"Oh my god, the wedding dress she's wearing is so beautiful. It's so shiny with gold threads, it looks so expensive."
"Vulgar! You only see the gold thread. Look carefully at the material of her clothes and the uppers of her shoes. Do you know what they are?"
"I know, I know. Jiangnan's carved Shu brocade is worth a ton of gold. This wedding dress is incredible. Its value is unimaginable."
"You don't know this, right? The most precious thing is at the back. Take a look."
Everyone subconsciously looked behind the sedan, and then a sound of gasps was heard.
"Oh my god, what a huge dowry this is! Ten miles of red dowry wouldn't be too much!"
"Haven't you heard? This bride is the legitimate daughter of Princess Yong'an and General Zhennan. How can her dowry be small?"
After getting off the sedan chair, looking at the big red flower handed to him, Xu Jinyi let go of the pig's trotter without hesitation.
Xu Jinyi would feel disgusted if she could stay with a man like this for even a second longer.
Lu Haoran was stunned for a moment and looked at his clean hands, thinking that she was just shy in public.
Holding the big red flower, Xu Jinyi listened to the matchmaker's words, stepped over the fire basin, worshipped heaven and earth in the yard, and then walked into the hall.
"Bow to heaven and earth."
"Bow to your parents twice."
"Husband and wife bow to each other."
"The ceremony is over——"
Xu Jinyi completed all the steps very obediently.
Through the specially made red veil, Xu Jinyi clearly saw clues that the original owner had never discovered in the previous life.
The Marquis' wife, who was sitting in the hall, smiled with obvious triumph and even winked at somewhere behind her.
As the words "send to the bridal chamber" were spoken, a panting, anxious and panicked voice was heard outside.
"It's bad, it's bad, something terrible has happened."
"News has arrived from the capital that General Zhennan has been accused of treason and collaborating with the enemy. Evidence has been found in the palace's study. The Emperor has ordered the general's residence to be raided. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy."
"General Zhennan is currently being held in the Dali Temple, awaiting sentencing, and the princess has also been imprisoned."
Xu Jinyi lifted her veil with a look of shock: "No? Impossible, my father can't be a traitor."
"Our General's Mansion is full of loyal and honest people. We would never do anything to collaborate with the enemy or betray our country. This must be a misunderstanding."
Xu Jinyi cried like rain, her eyes were wet with tears, and I felt pity for her.
Everyone gasped, not because of the shock of what happened, but because of the bride's superb beauty.
Pingyang Hou stood up in shock. "Impossible! General Zhennan's loyalty is known to everyone in our dynasty. How could he possibly be a traitor?"
"Wu... My father would never do such a thing." Xu Jinyi cried breathlessly, and it was obvious that she was very sad.
Lu Haoran glanced at his father. In fact, they had already received the news a long time ago and were just waiting to reveal it after the wedding ceremony.
In this way, their plan is half successful.
"Don't be too sad, Xiaojin. There must be a misunderstanding. There is no conviction yet, so there is still a chance for everything." Lu Haoran said comfortingly.
No one would have thought that he had such a gentle and modest appearance, but what kind of face was hidden under this pretty good-looking appearance.
At this moment, a few discordant voices rang out from the crowd: "So, isn't that the other way around? Just now we were saying that the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion was marrying up to the daughter of the Zhennan General's Mansion in the capital."
"If the charge of treason comes down, then wouldn't the bride be the daughter of a traitor? Wouldn't it be that instead of climbing up the social ladder, they're bringing trouble to their own family?"
