Chapter 373: Don't Be a Substitute for the Twins 15
The emperor personally issued an edict to grant the marriage. One of them was the eldest son of Marquis Yong'an, and the other was the eldest princess of the State of Xiao. Both were people of noble status.
The wedding was extremely grand, with loud gongs and drums and a long line of red wedding gowns.
The entire Yong'an Marquis Mansion was extremely lively, and the voices of congratulations, whether sincere or false, were heard everywhere.
As night fell, the excitement faded a little.
After the guests left, the originally bustling Yong'an Marquis Mansion suddenly became silent. The red silk lanterns decorated with lights were still bright and colorful, but they could not illuminate the increasingly dark hearts.
Inside the bridal chamber, without waiting for Lu Changze to come back, Xiao Keyan took off her red veil, removed her makeup, took a shower, and changed into comfortable clothes.
Glancing at the phoenix coronet and bridal robe beside him, Xiao Keyan sneered.
She also didn't expect that there would actually be a day when she would wear a wedding dress and get married.
"Consort."
The maid's voice sounded outside the house. Lu Changze, who was about to come in, paused and scolded in a cold voice: "You are now in Wen Kingdom, not Xiao Kingdom. This is Yong'an Marquis Mansion, not your princess's mansion. I am not your prince consort. Don't call me like that."
"General Lu is so powerful." Xiao Keyan leaned against the window, glanced at Lu Changze's cold face in the corridor and sneered.
"Fuer, give the order to call General Lu instead of Prince Consort in the future. After all, we are now living under someone else's roof and have to bow our heads."
Xiao Keyan said with a melancholy look on his face, his voice was desolate, as if it was filled with endless pain.
The maid agreed, bowed and left.
Lu Changze pushed the door open and walked in. He was hit in the face by the hot steam because he had just taken a shower.
"No matter what you, the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion, want to do, I tell you, since you have come to my place, you must obey me, otherwise there will definitely be a bad result waiting for you."
Lu Changze's words were harsh and his face was cold.
Xiao Keyan tilted his head and chuckled, "Okay, I will be obedient."
He just agreed to it without any objection?
Looking at the woman who slowly walked into the inner room, Lu Changze frowned.
He did not forget that day in Xiao Keyan's bedroom, when she pinched his chin and told him to go die.
She didn't know why he didn't recover his memory at that time. Now she thought about it, she was probably afraid that he would take revenge on her after recovering his memory.
Although Lu Changze didn't know what happened, his final answer was correct.
In the next few days, Lu Changze cooperated with the doctor to detoxify, and Xiao Keyan was quietly taking care of the baby, as if she was really a woman in seclusion, without any other unnecessary actions.
But even so, Lu Changze still couldn't feel at ease.
That was Xiao Keyan, the eldest princess of the Xiao Kingdom. The number of lovers in the princess's mansion was no less than that of the emperor's concubines. How could she suddenly become a good wife and mother?
Her current obedience is just a disguise.
-
"I was just pretending, and he knew I was pretending, but he didn't know what I wanted to do, so he didn't dare to act rashly."
If the eldest princess of Xiao State was killed in Wen State for no reason, it would provoke a war between the two countries.
If Wenguo wants to calm down, he must hand over the culprit, so the Yong'an Marquisate will not take action against her now.
"Giving birth is a life-threatening situation for women. What if they attack you during childbirth?"
It is not uncommon for women to die in childbirth, and it is a very normal way to die.
Xiao Keyan smiled and spread her wrist in front of Yun Yi, "I never plan to have children in my life."
Yun Yi's fingertips hit Xiao Keyan's wrist, and it was indeed a pulse of happiness.
But under the pulse of joy, it seems a little different.
Is this pulse created by medicine?
"You can make a fake pregnant belly, but how do you conjure up a baby when the time comes?" Yun Yi asked with interest.
Xiao Keyan chuckled, retracted her wrist, and slowly adjusted her cuffs, "If I still can't get rid of Lu Changze in ten months, I'd rather not be the eldest princess."
As everyone knows, the little emperor of Xiao State is just a mascot, and the ones who really hold power are the Queen Mother and the eldest princess of Xiao State.
Xiao Keyan came to Wen Kingdom with them. Although it was not as safe as in Xiao Kingdom, as the eldest princess of Xiao Kingdom, no one could target her openly.
As for the means behind the scenes, it depends on who is more powerful.
During this period before the child is born, she will try her best to make Lu Changze disappear from this world naturally.
It is important to get rid of Lu Changze, but it is also important not to cause any loss to the Xiao State because of him.
"I don't mind you sneaking into the princess's mansion disguised as a servant. Now that we have the same goal, can we work together?"
Xiao Keyan finally revealed her ultimate purpose of coming to find Yun Yi.
Yun Yi raised his eyebrows and said, "We can cooperate, but I won't play the role of Lu Changze."
In this life, he will never pretend to be someone else like the original owner. He is himself, just Yun Yi.
Xiao Keyan nodded. No one would willingly forget themselves and pretend to be someone else.
"I'd like to ask you to do me a favor and find someone to bring some things back." She is now living in the Yong'an Marquis Mansion and cannot go in and out freely. If those people in the dark move too frequently, the royal family of Wen Kingdom will notice it, so she can only ask Yun Yi for help.
"it is good."
Yun Yi agreed after a little thought.
After watching Yun Yi leave, Xiao Keyan sat for a while before getting up and leaving, returning to the Yong'an Marquis Mansion.
Lu Changze soon found out that she went to the restaurant for tea.
"Who did she go to see?"
"I don't know. The princess's men are guarding outside, so I can't get close."
"Waste." Lu Changze picked up the teacup next to him and threw it over.
Suddenly the teacup shattered to the ground and he felt a sharp pain in his chest.
"General, you'd better not get angry. The most taboo thing when detoxifying is emotional fluctuations, which may cause the toxins to flow back into the body."
The doctor who had been standing behind Lu Changze and giving him acupuncture on his back advised him.
Lu Changze closed his eyes and tried hard to suppress his anger.
But emotions are something that are never independent of personal will.
The more I want to calm down, the angrier I get.
After the doctor gave him another injection, Lu Changze finally couldn't bear it anymore and spat out a mouthful of blood.
'puff……'
The blood was spit out to the side of the bed, mixed with black, clearly a sign of poisoning.
Suddenly the house was filled with a bloody smell.
"General, be careful."
The doctor reached out to hold Lu Changze's violently heaving chest, but as soon as he put his hand on it, Lu Changze spat out another mouthful of blood.
Seeing this, the doctor was afraid to continue acupuncture and quickly pulled out the silver needle from his back.
Marquis Yong'an and Madam Lu rushed over after hearing the news, only to see the ground covered with black blood. Lu Changze's face was blue and purple, and he was lying on the bed unconscious.
