Marry Pluto
Looking at the name Cha Suxun signed at the end of the letter, Yuanli couldn't help but wonder to herself, "What on earth do you want me to see..."
In the middle of the night, lying on an unfamiliar bed, Yuanli was troubled by a lot of doubts, and the biggest doubt was: why did the past of Li Wan and Cha Suxun appear in her dream.
The soul will not feel sleepy. Once it leaves the body, it will no longer be burdened by the sleepiness and fatigue of grains and cereals. However, in the second half of the night, Yuanli gradually became so sleepy that she could not open her eyes until she fell asleep.
The next morning, Yuanli was awakened by the maid's anxious and fearful voice.
"Demon Lord, please wake up. It's too late to go to court."
Yuanli struggled to sit up, sleepily awake, and forced her eyes open, only to see the dim light outside. When she came to her senses, she saw several serving maids kneeling before the couch, none of them daring to look up.
"Demon Lord, please spare me. You told me last night that today's matter is very important and must be prepared early. That's why I dared to wake you up."
The woman who was speaking pretended to be calm, but her voice couldn't stop trembling, which showed their fear of Li Wan. Yuanli had no choice but to put on the airs of the Demon Lord she imagined, and said coldly, "Well, change your clothes."
However, when she opened her eyes and lowered her gaze to lift the quilt, she discovered that she had obviously grown a lot taller than when she went to sleep last night. Now her figure was well-proportioned, just like an ordinary girl who had reached marriage age.
Placed in Li Wan's room is a water prism unique to the East China Sea. The mirror is suspended and has no frame, like the purest water surface, clearly presenting Li Wan's beauty before one's eyes.
I don’t know if it’s because the Li Wan at this moment is her transformation, or if it’s just as Xue Gu said, her eyebrows and eyes are really similar to Li Wan’s.
However, Xue Gu was wrong in one respect. While it was true that she and the statue of Li Wan carved by the Xue Gu people resembled twin sisters, they were merely stiff, soulless stone statues. The beauty of Li Wan before her was even more captivating, impossible to ignore. Her sharp, deep features gave her an air of heroism.
In the water prism, the black silk held in the maid's hand was soft and shiny, hanging down to her slender waist, making her skin look even whiter.
What is most eye-catching is her pair of fox eyes under her eyebrows as dark as distant mountains. The corners of her eyes are slightly upturned, and her lower eyelashes are dotted with a small red mole. Her eyes are like glass and seem to be filled with aged wine.
She seemed to suddenly understand Cha Suxun and Heng Jin. If she were a man and met Li Wan, she would definitely not forget her.
In the court, Yuanli was worshipped by hundreds and thousands of demon kings and devils of all races and domains inside and outside the hall. She appeared calm on the surface, but was actually very panicked inside.
Listening to the report of the request, Yuanli was even more confused. She said nothing and waited until the other party finished speaking before responding with a faint glance. The atmosphere was frozen to the freezing point.
"Demon Lord, I dare to risk my life to advise you that your engagement with Hades has long passed the marriage year set by the previous Demon Lord, and has been repeatedly delayed. However, now that the demon and demon realms have been unified and at peace, you should consider putting it on the agenda."
Seeing the old man lying on his knees, begging with a fearless look on his face, it seemed Li Wan had already postponed this marriage several times. In the past, she would have refused as usual, but this was Cha Suxun's dream, so she should follow the path that would make him happy. After all, when she woke up tomorrow, she didn't know what year or date it would be.
"Well, go and negotiate a wedding date with Hades."
The old man stood there in shock, reacting for a moment before he replied with a smile, "Yes, yes, I will personally write a letter and send an envoy to discuss this matter immediately."
"Well, let's prepare immediately. If there's nothing else, we can leave the court."
"Farewell, Demon Lord."
After quickly escaping from the court and returning to the palace, she was forced to sit in the study to review the piles of memorials. Yuanli now fully experienced the life of an emperor, but there was no pleasure, instead she felt exhausted.
Only after sending the servants away did Yuanli dare to put down her airs. Just as she was about to lazily lie down on the table to rest, Cha Suxun suddenly appeared in front of her.
His eyes were filled with joy, unable to conceal his excitement, "Ali! Was what you said in the court true?"
"Of course. I've been sent to your place so soon. You can just pick an auspicious day." Yuanli couldn't help but secretly sigh in her heart that the old man was really quick in his actions. If the ministers in the world could be so efficient, there would be fewer wars in the world.
"No, I was waiting outside the court for you to leave, but you went straight back inside. I heard about this from the demon kings who were passing by after the court was over."
"That's good too. If you know in advance, you can choose an auspicious date in advance."
Cha Suxun walked over to her, squatted down, looked up at her, and asked seriously, "Ah Li, are you...really determined to marry me? If the ministers continue to advise you and force you to make a decision, I will postpone the wedding and let them advise me. You don't have to compromise."
When he said the second half of the sentence with a little hesitation, Cha Suxun felt obviously more lost.
Yuanli pulled him up and sat with her. "I've made up my mind. No one can force me. This is my own decision. Cha Suxun, marry me."
Hearing this, he, who was always gentle, polite and modest, and always paid attention to the proper distance between men and women, excitedly took her into his arms, repeating in his mouth: "Great... Great... Great..."
But as soon as he hugged her, he immediately let go and subconsciously kept his distance. "Sorry, I was too excited..."
"No need to apologize, you and I are already an engaged couple."
"Yes, what A'li said is correct." Cha Suxun immediately twirled his fingers and divined. "The day after tomorrow is an auspicious date that cannot be missed. I have prepared everything necessary for the wedding since you came of age. I will add new betrothal gifts every once in a while. However, if A'li feels it's too late, sixteen days later, thirty-four days later, and sixty-two days later would also be good auspicious dates. It's up to you."
"Then the day after tomorrow. I don't think it's too hasty."
"Okay, then I'll go back to the Netherworld immediately to start preparing." After saying that, Cha Suxun couldn't wait to return to the Netherworld.
As soon as he left, there was a knock on the study door. The servant outside reported, "Demon Lord, Heqi Palace has come down and said he has something important to discuss with you."
"allow."
"Hello, sister." The young Heqi in front of her looked like a five or six-year-old child in the human world. When he saw her, he bowed to her politely.
After the servant behind him quickly closed the door and only two people were left in the room, Heqi got up from the ground, bent down, and patted his knees with his hands.
"Humph, sister doesn't like Heqi as much as she used to."
"Why do you say that for no reason?"
"Ever since Father passed away, we've been dependent on each other. My sister always consults with me first, and even if she doesn't accept my suggestions, she always informs me. As her younger brother, I only found out about such a big event as my sister's wedding because Brother A-Cha sent me an invitation! You two don't love me anymore."
"No, I hadn't considered this matter before going to court. It was only when the minister mentioned it that I remembered that this marriage had indeed been delayed for a long time and should be put on the agenda, so I ordered them to start preparing. Before I had the chance to explain it to you in detail, you and Ah Cha came back and asked me about it. How could I not love you? If He Qi doesn't like my sister marrying Ah Cha, I will withdraw."
He Qi waved his hands quickly, "No, no, no! I'm so happy! I can't back out. Sister knows that among all the men pursuing you, I like Brother A Cha the most. I just think this is too unbelievable. I thought Brother A Cha would have to wait for who knows how long, and I'm not the first to know about Sister's marriage."
Just when Heqi was coaxed, suddenly, several memorials appeared on the table at the same time, neatly stacked on the left.
I picked up a book at random and flipped through it. It was filled with auspicious words of congratulations, and said that a wedding gift was attached and I hoped she would like it.
Yuanli flipped through the memorial with suspicion, tentatively shaking it. Since she had returned to the Void Mirror, the gift must be in it, but she didn't know how to retrieve it. This happened to several other books in a row.
Curiously, he clung to the perch in front of her desk and exclaimed, "Sister, there's a gift. Come and have a look."
Yuanli took the opportunity to push the pile of memorials over to Heqi and said, "Well, I still have a lot of memorials to review. Come and take a look at them for me and count the gifts."
Upon hearing this, Heqi excitedly picked up a book, put two fingers of his right hand together and stroked the word "gifts" on the memorial, then pointed casually at the empty space in front of the desk, and a dazzling array of gifts appeared neatly in front of him.
After releasing all the gifts mentioned in the memorials that suddenly appeared, Heqi picked up paper and pen and plunged into the pile of gifts.
"Guixu Mirror, the Lovebirds tribe, gifted two Luanming Feathered Robes..."
Afterwards, every time a memorial appeared on the table, any one containing a gift would be handed over to Heqi after reading it. By the end of the day, the gifts had piled up, needing no removal to the warehouse more than ten times.
But the most important and breathtaking thing was the betrothal gift sent by Cha Suxun. The wedding procession stretched from the entrance of the Demon Realm to her palace, filling up six palaces.
After receiving gifts all day, Yuanli felt sore and exhausted all over, so she fell asleep immediately.
When she regained consciousness and opened her eyes, Yuanli was already sitting in front of the water prism, wearing her wedding dress. Three maids were putting on makeup and combing her hair, making her look like a bride getting married.
The bedroom was hung with red silk and the word "囍" could be seen everywhere.
Yuanli was instantly awakened from her sleep. Could it be that she was really going to marry Cha Suxun in person today?
She originally thought that dreams were false, and she would not know what year it was when she woke up from a good dream. However, she never expected that this dream would not change according to the previous rules, but directly sent her to the dressing mirror.
If I really marry Cha Suxun, not to mention the wedding night, even if I wake up from the dream, I don’t know how to face Cha Suxun.
"The auspicious day has arrived, and the bride is leaving!"
Now she was regretting it so much, but there was nothing she could do. She had to pretend and take things one step at a time.
He Qi walked in and saw her in a daze, not wanting to get up. He leaned over and jokingly said, "Sister, if you keep dawdling, I'm afraid your brother-in-law will be waiting for you in the underworld."
Reminded by this, Yuanli's mind replayed yesterday. Cha Suxun told her that he knew she was reluctant to leave the Demon Realm and Guixu Realm, and was concerned about Heqi. She was born free, liked to explore exotic beasts and spirits, and was attached to this land. He didn't want to bind her in the underworld, so he was willing to marry into the Demon Realm, even if he had to travel back and forth between the two realms every day.
