My Devil Emperor
A wedding?

Everything happened so quickly that Yuan could not get a chance to scream for help.

Those people pulled Yuan forcefully to follow them after previously covering Yuan's mouth with a cloth.

And this is where Yuan is. In a horse-drawn carriage with hands and feet bound and a veil covering his entire face.

From outside the carriage, Yuan heard the voice of a woman who asked the people who had kidnapped him.

"Have you caught him?" said the woman.

"Yes, Madam. He's inside."

And the curtain that covered the door of the horse-drawn carriage opened. Yuan could feel someone was in front of him right now.

With a single pull, the veil finally fell from Yuan's head.

Yuan could look at the woman now. He looked surprised to see Yuan and cursed, "Basic is useless!".

The woman came out of the horse carriage with a reddened face. "Who are you carrying?" said explode.

"Bu—wasn't she Princess Bingyan?" answer one of them.

"Stupid! She was not Princess Bingyan. You are useless!"

"Sorry, Madam. We mistakenly recognized him" said one of them fearfully.

"Here you go, I'll punish you when you arrive" he said, shaking his sleeves.

"So what are we going to do?"

"We have no other choice but to let her take the place of that stubborn princess," the woman replied which of course made Yuan who heard her turn a blind eye.

Although he was not sure what the people would do, but his instincts said it was not a good thing. He has to go!

Yuan tried every means to untie the ties on his hands and feet. The movement is too big to make the horse carriage also move.

The woman went back in and this time opened the cloth cover that was in her mouth.

"Auntie, you don't kidnap me, okay? My parents are very rich! If you let me go, I will definitely give you some wealth" Yuan said in negotiations.

The woman looked at Yuan's face intently. He laughed softly and said, "Not bad. You are so beautiful. Little Miss, just calm down, we won't hurt you. I don't need the money, just keep it to myself. Good girl, obey." He patted Yuan's shoulder gently.

"Auntie, my parents must be looking for me, can you let me go this time? You're looking for someone, aren't you?? I can help you find him."

The woman smiled faintly. "You can't look for him. He's very agile and we don't have much time."

Yuan looked at the upset middle-aged woman. It was very desirable for him to kick her, but judging from the appearance of the woman, it seemed like she was above Yuan. If he fights, he'll be done. Moreover, there were many people outside. How will he escape?

"Auntie, what do you really want?"

"You. Need you. Think it over and you'll be fine."

That was the last sentence Yuan heard. After that he fell asleep because of the woman's blow.

Elsewhere, Jingli confusedly searched for the whereabouts of Princess Yanli.

"Boss, did you see the woman I was with?" jingli asked the shop owner.

"Aiya, I didn't see him, he hasn't even returned the clothes he tried. Are you going to pay for it?" the shop owner looks upset.

Jingli grimaced in shame. "Well, how much is it?"

After she finished her bridal business, Jingli went back to look for Yuan.

He exited the shop and wandered around it until he saw a woman in bridal clothes hiding behind a wall. But part of his face was covered in a black veil.

"Mr Princess, What are you doing here?" jingli asked which made the woman surprised.

"Hamba's been looking for you everywhere. Why does his shirt look different?" he continued while paying attention to the clothes worn by the woman.

"Maybe you remember it wrong" he replied.

"Suddenly I'm not feeling well. Can we go home now?" ask the woman in a weak-sounding voice.

Hearing her reply made Jingli instantly look worried. "Well we'll go home, the business of the dress is done," Jingli said, holding the woman's arm.

He carefully led the Princess to return to the palace.

"Rest, Princess. I will call the palace physician." Jingli was just about to leave her, but the woman stopped him immediately.

"No need, I just need a break" he said.

"Well, Princess," Jingli replied leaving the woman alone.

After making sure Jingli had already left, the woman walked around Princess Yanli's room.

His hand took out a scroll of paper that turned out to be a painting.

The eyes were shocked and involuntarily said, "Could it be that one..."

The first sight Yuan saw was the ceiling of a room decorated with red ribbons and cloths. Just like the bridal room in the Chinese dramas he watched.

Body stiffens. Is this the purpose of the woman? Kidnap her to replace the woman who ran away from her marriage?

Yuan straightened his body. The girl's eyes squinted at every corner of the room to find a sharp object that could cut through the rope that was still firmly tied on her arms and legs.

Suddenly he saw a table on which was composed fruits, food and wedding wine.

With all the effort, Yuan finally managed to reach him and took the fruit knife from the table.

He pointed the blade at the rope that tied his hand. It didn't take five minutes, but the rope had already slipped out of there. Yuan did the same thing on the rope at his feet.

After successfully breaking away from the bond, Yuan walked towards the bedroom window and opened it carefully. He's got to get out of there.

Yuan turned his head to the right and left to ascertain the circumstances around him. After he felt everything was safe, Yuan jumped out of the window.

"Want to escape?" someone's interruption behind him. Breath choked. That voice sounds pretty familiar.

Yuan looked back and saw the woman he had met in the horse carriage was staring flatly at him.

"You've really made a big mistake! Don't you know who I am? " said Yuan. His eyes stared hard at the woman. Enough already! Let the woman beg for her forgiveness after she hears who she is.

"That's not important now," he replied indifferently.

"You! Let me go, or—" Yuan's words came to a halt as the woman drew the sword and pointed it at Yuan's neck.

"Or what?" tanyanya.

"You're bullying me?"

"No, I want to give you an honor" he replied calmly.

"How to marry me to a stranger? Isn't that the same as selling me? If my mom and dad knew, you'd be punished severely. Maybe that day will be the day of your death!"

"Oh? This sounds interesting. You don't look like an ordinary person. Little lady, try to tell me who you are? Maybe I could consider letting you go. It seems you are from a very strong family. How strong is that?"

Yuan clenched his hands. But a second later he smiled obliquely. "Zhou YanLi's. First princess of Zhou kingdom. I'm also Prince Liu's fiancee. If you force me to marry, you will face two kingdoms" he said slowly. There's a little arrogance. Now he would only wish his identity could make this woman in front of him a little afraid.

The woman was stunned. Then a wide smile was framed on his lips.

Yuan shuddered in horror at the woman. "Why are you smiling?!"

"This is so good! I'm really lucky. Not bad," he said happily.

"What do you mean?"

"Principal, you'd better get some rest now. The waiter! Take this princess back to her room!" Not yet Yuan refused, some servants had already withdrawn their hands and re-inserted him into the bridal chamber.

"Auntie, you're so cunning!"
