She got pregnant after the swap marriage, and the scumbag's family regretted it so much they cr

The two sedan bearers couldn't help but resent Miss Lu. Why did she get out of the sedan chair? Wasn't that just asking for trouble?

The matchmaker heard the commotion behind her, turned around, and immediately screamed, "Oh dear! Good heavens! The bridal sedan chair can't be put down halfway!"

"Is this your first time carrying a sedan chair? How could you make such a mistake!"

The band in front was so startled by the sound that their playing crackled.

The onlookers, who had never seen such a farce before, burst into laughter, practically grabbing handfuls of sunflower seeds.

Hearing the commotion behind him, Li Rong's expression grew even colder.

He never wanted to marry this cousin; she wasn't gentle or considerate at all.

If it weren't for wanting to completely tie himself to the Lu family, why would his family have resorted to such a desperate measure, rushing him to marry Lu Ruyi? When the Lu family said the wedding date was moved up, they readily agreed.

He frowned, gently pulled on the reins, and turned the horse around.

At a glance, one could see a girl in wedding attire standing in front of the bridal sedan chair, her veil already removed.

Most of her face was covered by a silk handkerchief, revealing only a pair of doe-like eyes.

Li Rong had long known that his cousin was spoiled by her aunt, but he never expected her to be so audacious as to step out of the bridal sedan chair halfway through the journey.

He suppressed his impatience and advised, "Cousin, today is our joyous occasion. Don't be silly, go back to the sedan chair!"

The matchmaker chimed in, pushing Lu Huan towards the bridal sedan chair: "Yes, yes, Second Miss, whatever it is, we can talk about it when we get to the Li family."

"Don't touch me!" Lu Huan slapped the matchmaker's hand away.

Her slender, jade-like hands appeared even whiter against the backdrop of Xi Po's ochre-colored dress.

Looking at those delicate, jade-like hands, Li Rong imagined them gripping his hand tightly, and couldn't help but clench his fist.

I immediately felt the saddle digging into me and it was quite uncomfortable.

Even he himself didn't notice that his voice had become much softer and his eyes had become more urgent.

I want to take him back as soon as possible and have some fun with him.

"Cousin, don't worry, I'll make them walk faster."

Upon hearing such ambiguous words, the hooligans watching the spectacle began to jeer.

"Oh! Miss Lu can't wait any longer, she wants to consummate the marriage!"

"Hahaha, that's right! Young Master Li is so lucky!"

Noticing Li Rong's gaze, Lu Huan glared at him coldly. Just like in her previous life, he was disgusting.

"I'm not your cousin, I'm the eldest daughter of the Lu family!"

"what!"

Li Rong felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head, while the people on both sides of the road were in an uproar.

"How could the bride be mistaken!"

"That's right! But I heard that the two young ladies of the Lu family are almost a year apart in age, so how come they're getting married at the same time?"

"It seems there's a lot of something fishy going on here!"

"I knew it! That Madam Li, who was later promoted to power, was definitely no good!"

"That's right! But the Li family is clearly much better off than the Gao family. Li must be confused to marry off the eldest daughter of the Lu family to her own family!"

"Who knows! Maybe it was Miss Lu who used this trick!"

"Don't talk nonsense! Didn't you see? It's Miss Lu who's causing trouble halfway there, refusing to go to the Li family!"

"I do not know then!"

In just a few moments, the onlookers had already imagined several dramatic scenes of intrigue and power struggles within wealthy families.

Li Rong also came to his senses at this moment and repeatedly examined the half of Lu Huan's face that was exposed.

She did not resemble Lu Ruyi's face at all, but she was much prettier than Lu Ruyi.

Especially those eyes, they seem to hold a pool of spring water, making one reluctant to destroy them...

The aggressive gaze swept over Lu Huan, who frowned uncomfortably, but still slowly walked towards Li Rong.

Li Rong thought Lu Huan wanted to ask him to send her back to the Lu family, so he advised, "Since things have come to this, Miss, you should go back to the bridal sedan chair."

"By now, the wedding procession from the Gao family should have already left the city. Even if you rush over now, they will have already completed their wedding ceremony. Why bother?"

Lu Huan slowly walked to the front of the horse and said leisurely, "I will absolutely not go to the Li family with you."

The next moment, taking advantage of Li Rong's distraction, she suddenly grabbed his right trouser leg and yanked it hard.

Li Rong was caught off guard and fell off his horse, groaning in pain and unable to utter a complete sentence.

The surrounding people were stunned by this sudden change.

This Miss Lu actually dared to lay a hand on a man!

They understood what the young master Li meant earlier and decided to go along with the mistake and accept the marriage.

Li Rong was somewhat relieved at this moment.

Not long after the Prince of Yan took up his fief, he received donations from wealthy merchants in the city. The first thing he did was to pave the main roads in Yanjing with bluestone slabs.

Furthermore, every morning, servants were assigned to sweep the streets.

So although he looks disheveled now, he only has some dust on him, which can be easily shaken off and will not affect his image as a handsome young man.

But the pain in his body brought Li Rong's thoughts back to the present.

Is marrying him such an unacceptable thing? Does the Lu family's daughter look down on the Li family so much?

Li Rong's peach blossom eyes no longer held any warmth.

Lu Huan didn't want to waste a single word with Li Rong, so he grabbed the saddle and leaped off.

The bright red embroidered shoes with mandarin ducks drew a perfect arc in the air.

The eighteen panels of her wedding dress spread out beside the horse as she moved, each panel embroidered with a different pattern.

Many of the embroidery patterns were made with gold thread, and Lu Huan's whole body shimmered with gold in the sunlight.

As she rode on horseback, the way she looked at Li Rong was as if she had seen something dirty.

Even if all the men in the world died, I would not marry you.

After saying that, he spurred his horse and galloped back the way he came.

The onlookers all heard this.

"Oh my god! The bride ran away! She's not even taking her dowry!"

The people looked at Li Rong on the ground, who had now changed his posture and was sitting on the ground.

A bright red ribbon on his head covered half of his face, obscuring the sinister look in his eyes.

He clenched his fist and slammed it against his side.

This is an utter disgrace, a complete disgrace! He will absolutely not let the eldest daughter of the Lu family off the hook!

"What are you all standing there for! Get back to the Lu family now, and bring them back to me even if you have to tie them up!"

"Yes!"

The servants from the Li family who had come to fetch the bride immediately turned back, took a shortcut, and tried to get to the Lu family before Lu Huan and intercept him.

The servants of the Lu family who were following the dowry looked at each other, unsure whether they should follow the eldest young lady or the new son-in-law.

They didn't even know whether to call him the eldest son-in-law or the second son-in-law.

"The rest of you come back to the Li family with me. My dear father-in-law and mother-in-law will know what to do."

Li Rong felt that something was amiss. He needed to go back and talk to his family first, hoping he could get some more benefits from the Lu family.

He hadn't forgotten that he was in front of everyone at this moment.

He shook off the dust and bowed to the crowd, saying, "I was in a fit of anger and made a fool of myself in front of everyone."

"No no."

For a moment, everyone seemed to genuinely believe that Li Rong had made those harsh remarks because he was furious.

The Li family servants chased Lu Huan all the way to the Lu family's door, but they still couldn't find him.

The servant in front of the Lu family's gate was somewhat surprised to see the Li family members return.
