Quick time travel: The system wants me to save the sick girl

Lu Yan lowered his head slightly and responded modestly: "Yes, I can speak now." His voice was so soft that it seemed as if only he could hear it.

However, his father's next words exploded in his ears like a thunderbolt: "Your father has decided to send you to the palace."

Lu Yan raised his head in astonishment, looking straight at his father. He frowned, his face full of suspicion and confusion, as if he couldn't believe what he had just heard.

He couldn't help but wonder in his heart, what exactly did he want to do? Why did he suddenly make such a decision? This sudden news made Lu Yan confused and shocked, and he was at a loss for a while.

"What does he mean by this? What does he mean by sending me to the palace?" Lu Yan frowned, suddenly having a bad feeling.

Sure enough, this premonition soon came true.

"The current emperor's younger brother, Prince An, has only one male servant in his mansion."

Lu Yan finally realized that this was their plan, to send him to a marriage alliance! Telling him now was nothing more than a foregone conclusion, waiting for him to know, and he had no choice and could not resist.

"System, what will be the consequences if I dare to refuse?" Lu Yan asked silently in his heart.

"Tied up." The system gave the most concise answer without mercy, but the threat contained in it was obvious - as long as Lu Yan showed any sign of disobedience, the only thing waiting for him was to be forcibly escorted to complete the wedding.

"I'm getting married before I even have any contact with the target of the mission. What should I do..." Lu Yan couldn't help but feel amused, but there was no strange expression on his face.

Facing his father, he could only nod obediently and said, "Yes, sir."

"Go away. As long as you stay still, everyone will arrange everything for you." The prince didn't even look at Lu Yan, and waved his hand to let him leave.

"Humph, you're clearly just treating me as a chess piece to be manipulated at will." Lu Yan snorted in his heart, turned around and left without looking back, and went straight back to his own courtyard.

In the yard, Yu Rou had already ordered people to prepare food, but Lu Yan had no appetite at the moment, so he ate a few bites and went back to his room.

"I don't know when the wedding will be held? Do I have a chance during this period of time?" Lu Yan didn't want to do what his father said.

"And what the hell is this Prince An? What happened?" Lu Yan now wanted to eat this prince, blaming him for coming out to disrupt his plan.

The palace was closely planned, and people were coming to Lu Yan's courtyard more and more frequently, making it difficult for Lu Yan to go out quietly.

However, the palace kept this action secret from the outside world.

At least at this moment, the outside world is still unaware of the matter between Lu Yan and Prince An.

One day, Lu Yan suddenly heard a message from the palace, so he obeyed the order and went there.

"The imperial edict has arrived!" The voice was high-pitched and piercing, like a sword piercing the air.

"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims that the young master Lu Yan of the Shao Palace and I have a tacit understanding and are in love. I hereby decree that the marriage will be completed in March."

"Appreciate this."

"Young Master Lu, please accept the order."

Lu Yan reacted and immediately stood up to receive the order. At the same time, he put some silver in the eunuch's hand and said, "Thank you, eunuch."

Lu Yan still didn't quite react. Wasn't she supposed to marry that Prince An? How did it suddenly become marrying the Emperor? What does this mean?

Not only did Lu Yan find it strange, but his father Prince Shao also didn't react. He was clearly asking for a marriage with Prince An, so how did it suddenly become a marriage with the Emperor?

Could it be that the emperor discovered something? Prince Shao's face suddenly turned gloomy. He glared at Lu Yan fiercely and said in a deep voice: "Since the imperial decree has been issued, you should prepare well."

"You are about to marry into the palace, so please don't bring shame to our palace."

"The proper dowry will naturally be prepared for you."

After all, she was going to marry the emperor, so the generosity of the dowry could not be neglected. As a result, Lu Yan's status in the mansion rose rapidly and she became very popular.

The servants who usually changed their attitude according to the situation naturally began to curry favor with him.

However, Lu Yan was relieved. After all, his target was the emperor. Although he didn't know why the person was changed, this was what he wanted most. He was worried that he couldn't get in touch with that person.

Because of this, he lost the chance to go out.

Perhaps the prince had given instructions, and during this period of time, no one had come to his yard except to prepare the dowry.

Especially the prince’s children.

However, that younger sister Jiahe will come to see Lu Yan in the middle of the journey, and they only have these few days to have the opportunity to meet.

Lu Yan found an opportunity to leave the palace. He had to use these three months to arrange everything. After all, once he entered the palace, he was not sure when he would be able to get out.

"But my original plan was to get close to the emperor, so why not put the casino aside? The money I have now is enough for me to live on for the rest of my life."

Lu Yan paced in the room, thinking about his next plan.

Although marrying the emperor was exactly what he wanted, the development of the matter still made him feel suspicious. Seeing the prince's decisive look, he thought the matter was settled.

But she didn't expect that her marriage partner would change halfway and become the emperor.

"System, what do you think about this matter?" Lu Yan asked in his heart.

"Perhaps this is a turning point." The system analyzed, "You can use this opportunity to get close to the emperor and complete the mission, but you must be careful of the complicated situation of the royal family's struggle, and the palace may be hiding something from you."

"The prince obviously treats you as a pawn."

Lu Yan nodded slightly to show his agreement. Now he could only take one step at a time and act according to circumstances.

However, what surprised Lu Yan was that he did not meet Changshu and Yicheng when he went to the casino this time. He didn't know where they had gone and he hadn't seen them since.

He had no choice but to write down his plan to leave the casino in a letter.

Time flies, March is up, and in the blink of an eye it’s the wedding day.

He was getting married today, and the only people he took with him were the two maids Yan Feng and Yu Chen, Yu Rou. He didn't bring anyone else.

Lu Yan was wearing a gorgeous wedding dress and sitting in the bridal sedan. The grand wedding ceremony was held with loud gongs and drums and firecrackers.

Walking all the way from the prince's residence to the imperial palace, I always felt that the road was particularly long. Looking at the people on the streets outside, the emperor's marriage was a big event, so naturally there were many people coming to join in the fun.

As the sedan chair moved forward, Lu Yan arrived at the palace gate. He slowly stepped down from the sedan chair and entered the palace gate. The scene in front of him was shocking, and the magnificent palace showed the majesty of the royal family.

Under the guidance of his father-in-law, the veil covering Lu Yan's head only allowed him to see his feet clearly, and he had to be supported by others to enter.
