Chapter 42 Tonight, I'll be your bride



Zhou Yu's clothes were stained with blood, and he was unconscious. He was carried away by his guards.

Li Huan quickly said, "Governor Zhou's injuries have worsened; we must summon Hua Tuo to treat him!"

Liu Bei immediately ordered, "Zilong, ride back to Xiakou at top speed and escort Hua Tuo to the Zhou residence tonight."

Zhao Zilong obeyed the order and rushed out of the hall.

Xiao Qiao bowed to Li Huan: "Thank you, sir, for disregarding past grievances and for your concern for Zhou Lang's safety."

Li Huan almost burst out laughing.

I'm not worried about Zhou Yu's life, but I'm afraid that after he dies, I won't be able to pay for his lunch.

"Madam Zhou, please don't be so polite!" Li Huan said seriously. "Go and take care of the Grand Commander."

Xiao Qiao bowed to Wu Guotai to take her leave and hurriedly departed.

Sun Quan finished his beer and let out a burp.

"Huan Di and Xiao Mei are deeply in love. They can choose an auspicious day to get married and hold a grand wedding banquet!"

Upon hearing this, Sun Shangxiang's face was filled with both joy and shyness.

Li Huan had no time to think and bowed to Sun Quan in gratitude.

Sun Quan then said, "Brother Huan is now of noble status and should not stay at an inn. He should stay at the East Mansion. I also ask Xuande to stay for a few more days."

Liu Bei hurriedly said, "Military affairs are heavy, I will return to Xiakou tomorrow."

Sun Quan laughed and said, "My brother Huan and my sister are about to get married. Xuande will definitely attend the wedding banquet. Why bother going back to Xiakou and making the trip back and forth?"

Liu Bei could not refuse and had no choice but to agree.

Immediately afterwards, Sun Quan ordered his guards to bring one thousand taels of gold.

Li Huan reminded them: "Fifty boxed meals, totaling five hundred taels of gold."

Sun Quan said with a smile, "My mother praised the boxed lunch highly and was very happy. I will reward you with another five hundred taels of gold!"

Li Huan understood that this was Sun Quan's way of bribing him.

"Thank you, Madam." Li Huan said casually, "When I run my stall, I always adhere to the principle of only selling boxed meals and never accepting tips."

Sun Quan and Wu Guotai were stunned; they hadn't expected Li Huan to be so ungreedy.

Li Huan chuckled inwardly, thinking, "Giving me 100,000 taels of gold wouldn't help; I can't bring it back to the real world to exchange for currency."

He stepped forward, quickly counted the gold ingots, and only accepted five hundred taels.

Everyone present showed their approval.

The banquet has ended.

Li Huan rode an electric tricycle and, together with Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, and Zhang Fei, arrived at the Eastern Mansion.

This is a newly built mansion.

It occupies a huge area, is extremely luxuriously decorated, and has all kinds of facilities.

Moreover, there were many maids, all of whom were quite beautiful.

Li Huan knew that if Liu Bei married Sun Shangxiang, he would live with her in the East Mansion, enjoying himself day and night, forgetting all about Shu.

Fortunately, Zhao Zilong untied the brocade pouch given to him by Zhuge Liang, and then, following the plan, reminded Liu Bei to use the excuse of returning to his hometown to worship his ancestors, and escape from Eastern Wu with Sun Shangxiang.

Now, Li Huan has traveled through time to the Three Kingdoms period and is about to become Sun Shangxiang's husband and the master of the Eastern Mansion.

Unfortunately, Li Huan cannot stay long; he must leave at any time after completing the final task assigned by the system.

What should we do about Sun Shangxiang?

Li Huan frowned, pondering this important question.

Should we bring Sun Shangxiang back to the real world?

However, you must reach level ten...

"Brother Huan! What's the worry?" Zhuge Liang asked.

Li Huan snapped out of her daze and shook her head.

Zhang Fei put his arm around Li Huan's shoulder: "Don't be afraid. If Miss Sun dares to bully you, I'll teach her a lesson for you!"

Li Huan laughed and said, "No need for General Zhang, my family's ancestral skill, 'Eighteen Whips of the Leather Whip,' is perfect for dealing with disobedient wives!"

"Eighteen whip strikes?" Zhang Fei became interested. "I'll ask you for the instructions sometime!"

Zhuge Liang waved his feather fan: "Zhou Yu originally intended to use a beauty trap to bewitch our lord, but unexpectedly, it led to the marriage between Huan Di and Sun Shangxiang."

Liu Bei said, "I came in a hurry and only prepared a birthday gift for Lady Wu. I am unable to give a congratulatory gift on Mr. Li Huan's wedding day. I hope you will forgive me."

Li Huan laughed and said, "Uncle Liu, you still owe me fifty taels of gold."

Liu Bei was embarrassed.

Li Huan patted Liu Bei on the shoulder: "Forget it, you can keep the fifty taels of gold for when you get married."

Liu Bei exclaimed in alarm: "Absolutely not! We'll offer double the tribute next month!"

Li Huan's expression turned serious, and he instructed, "The day I marry Sun Shangxiang will be the day you leave Eastern Wu. You must not linger."

Liu Bei hurriedly asked, "Does the gentleman mean that I should take my leave and return to Xiakou after the wedding banquet?"

Li Huan nodded: "While Sun Quan's attention is on me, you still have a chance to escape. Otherwise, you will be placed under house arrest by Sun Quan!"

Zhuge Liang said, "What Huan-di said is very true. I also have this plan."

Liu Bei hurriedly bowed and said, "Thank you very much, Mr. Li Huan! I will never forget your kindness!"

...

the next day.

Zhao Zilong has brought Hua Tuo to the Zhou residence to treat Zhou Yu's arrow wound.

Subsequently, Zhao Zilong arrived at the East Mansion with five hundred taels of gold.

"Zhou Yu was half-dead and asked me to give the gold to Huan Di, claiming that the meal payment had been settled and there was no further debt!"

Li Huan took the gold and put it into the electric tricycle, feeling completely at ease.

Damn, mission accomplished!

Ding! The system emitted a long-awaited notification sound.

[Congratulations, Master! You've earned 500 taels of gold from Zhou Yu by selling boxed lunches, completing the third task!]

Three hundred taels of gold can be exchanged for real-world currency.

[Reminder to owner: You will be returning to the real world in one minute!]

Li Huan hurriedly said: "Can we postpone it for a few days? I haven't married Sun Shangxiang yet!"

[Because the master's performance in selling boxed lunches at a stall was excellent, the system can delay the time travel.]

Li Huan breathed a sigh of relief.

[Please note that after your wedding night, the system will open a portal to return you to the real world!]
