Starting from the prison, an infinite simulation

As the figure gradually became clearer, everyone in the hall showed a look of respect.

Entering the hall was a white-haired man, holding a white-haired whisk, with three-colored stars between his eyebrows, exuding an air of otherworldly elegance.

"Oh dear, it's Doctor Liu! I'm so sorry for not greeting you sooner!"

Zhang Yuan, with his sharp eyes, recognized the person who had come and hurriedly went forward to greet them.

Liu Zhiyan comes from a renowned family of physicians in the Imperial State. His ancestral Liu family medical skills can cure all diseases and even bring people back from the dead!

As a descendant of the family, Liu Zhiyan traveled the world all year round, saving many lives and thus becoming famous throughout the imperial state.

Five years ago, Zhang Yuan asked Liu Zhiyan to treat Zhang Yuqian, but unfortunately it was unsuccessful. However, Liu Zhiyan left a message before leaving.

Reassure Zhang Yuan that he will take full responsibility for Zhang Yuqian's condition!

His sudden appearance at the wedding today, could it be that he has found a way to get rid of Zhang Yuqian?

Zhang Yuan pondered this in his heart, but his face remained expressionless. He then smiled and said, "Since Doctor Liu has come, I must express my sincere gratitude for your treatment back then."

When Zhang Yuqian's eyes met Liu Zhiyan's, a vague memory flashed through her mind, and she nodded slightly at him.

Liu Zhiyan nodded in return, then said to Zhang Yuan, "Congratulations, Patriarch Zhang! It's been several years since I last saw your daughter; she's reached marriageable age."

"Not at all, Mr. Lai, please take a seat." Zhang Yuan reached out to guide Liu Zhiyan to a seat.

Liu Zhiyan shook his head and said, "Patriarch Zhang, I have patients waiting for me, so I'm afraid I have to decline your offer today."

Zhang Yuan was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, but his smile remained unchanged: "It's alright, saving lives is the priority, sir."

Liu Zhiyan nodded in understanding, then turned his gaze to Zhang Yuqian and said with a light smile, "I've come here today to tell your family some good news: I've found a way to cure this stubborn disease."

"I hope Patriarch Zhang will allow me to give this opportunity. I wonder if the wedding banquet could be postponed for a while?"

Liu Zhiyan's gaze returned to Zhang Yuan, and she flicked her whisk.

"Give it a try? Oh, may I ask how confident you are, sir?"

Standing to one side, Jiang Xuan asked with a cold, deep gaze.

Upon hearing this, Liu Zhiyan thought for a moment and replied, "The path of medicine is fraught with danger and unpredictability. I dare not claim to be 100% certain, but I am still 90% confident."

A hint of disdain suddenly appeared on Jiang Xuan's lips. He waved his hand at Liu Zhiyan and said, "If that's the case, then please go back, sir. Patriarch Zhang already has a foolproof plan."

"Oh? Is that so?" Liu Zhiyan looked shocked and turned to look at Zhang Yuan.

Zhang Yuan's face stiffened, and his lips moved as if he was about to speak, but a piece of good news beat him to it.

"Sir, what Patriarch Jiang said is untrue. Please, sir, he will save Yuqian."

Zhang Yuqian gracefully stepped forward, clasped her hands in a gesture of respect, and said...

If Doctor Liu can cure her illness, then the reason for the Zhang family's marriage alliance with the Jiang family will be gone, and the matter of Jiang Yueming marrying into the family will be settled.

He wouldn't have lost his life in vain!

Jiang Yueming gazed at Zhang Yuqian's beautiful figure, knowing what she was thinking, and sighed inwardly.

The marriage between the Jiang and Zhang families is fundamentally a power struggle, or to put it bluntly, a contest to see who will win the Martial God Championship next year.

In Zhang Yuan's mind, preserving the Zhang family's power and status is perhaps the most important thing, and saving his daughter may be a side effect.

Even if Liu Zhiyan's method can cure Zhang Yuqian completely, the two families will still hold the wedding banquet as planned!

"This…"

Liu Zhiyan seemed to sense that something was wrong in the atmosphere of the hall, and was momentarily at a loss.

"Mr. Liu, don't you have a patient waiting for you? Please leave," Jiang Xuan said preemptively.

Zhang Yuqian's eyes turned cold and stern as she slightly parted her red lips towards Jiang Xuan: "Patriarch Jiang, this matter is probably none of your concern, is it?"

"Shut up! From today onwards, the Jiang family head will be your elder. How can you be so rude!"

Before Jiang Xuan could speak, Zhang Yuan reprimanded Zhang Yuqian.

Zhang Yuqian opened her mouth slightly, as if she wanted to say something more, but a force from her fair wrist silenced her.

Jiang Yueming gently shook his head, pulling her along, but a strange smile appeared on his face.

"What are you laughing at? You're just letting such a good opportunity slip by?" Zhang Yuqian turned her head slightly and raised her eyebrows.

Jiang Yueming released her wrist, still smiling without saying a word.

While Zhang Yuan was busy seeing Liu Zhiyan off, he took a break and instructed the master of ceremonies to continue the wedding ceremony.

Upon receiving the head of the household's instructions, the master of ceremonies cleared his throat and announced, "Second ceremony: the couple will drink the wedding banquet wine together."

Two maids in green robes handed two cups of sake to the two men. The sake in the cups was clear and bright, and its aroma immediately filled the air.

Zhang Yuqian picked up the wine glass with her slender fingers, her starry eyes fixed on Jiang Yueming as she asked again, "When will your method be available?"

According to my childhood memories, family weddings were very complicated, but if things continue to develop in this way, the ceremony will probably only consist of three rites.

It's clear that both sides want to finish quickly to avoid any unexpected problems.

And the third ceremony, if she remembered correctly, was entering the bridal chamber!

If it comes to this point, there is almost no way to salvage the situation.

"Sigh, it seems I'll have to use the dagger after I finish this drink, or I won't have another chance," Zhang Yuqian murmured to herself.

Seeing Zhang Yuqian's dazed expression, Jiang Yueming raised his wine glass and clinked it against hers: "Don't worry, the way out is right before our wedding night."

He thought about it carefully. Since Li Tianyun was able to forcibly obstruct the marriage in front of Jiang Xuan and Zhang Xuan in the simulation, it must have been in this hall.

Because if the two of them walked out of the main hall and into the bridal chamber, Jiang Xuan would definitely have gone home, which is not in line with the simulated situation at all.

"The...bridal chamber?"

Zhang Yuqian's cheeks suddenly flushed red. The wine in her glass trembled slightly as she sipped it, before she finally downed it in one gulp.

In a split second, both men drank the wine in their glasses, and the master of ceremonies spoke at the perfect moment.

"The second ceremony is complete!"

"The three gifts, including the wedding house!"

The master of ceremonies stopped speaking, then gestured for Jiang Yueming to enter the bridal chamber, saying with a smile, "The head of the family said that the son-in-law doesn't need to stay for the banquet; it's more important to take care of business with the young lady."

"Yes, my father-in-law really knows how to handle things."

Jiang Yueming took Zhang Yuqian's hand and followed behind the master of ceremonies.

"Feed? You really intend to..." Zhang Yuqian's face turned pink as she grabbed Jiang Yueming tightly, speaking angrily.

Seeing her flushed face, Jiang Yueming suddenly felt playful. He leaned closer to Zhang Yuqian and said slowly, "At worst, I'll die under the peony flower; even as a ghost, I'll be romantic~"

Zhang Yuqian suddenly felt a hot breath on her white neck, which made her heart tremble and a rare blush appear on her face.

She pushed Jiang Yueming away with her bare hand and glared at him fiercely. In that glare, there was not a trace of displeasure, but rather a hint of shyness and resentment.

"Yuqian, what happened?"

Zhang Yuan was drinking with his guests when he suddenly noticed something was wrong.

Zhang Yuqian's cold eyes narrowed slightly, and she was about to take out a dagger from her sleeve when a powerful voice boomed from outside the hall.

"Master Zhang, it would be too impolite of you not to invite this old man to your daughter's wedding."
