Three more days passed in the blink of an eye, and it was time for Yun Qi to marry Princess Qinghe.

The Yun family doted on Shen Wan. To Shen Wan, the Yun family was no different from her own home, and she felt even more at ease than when she was at the Pingyang Marquis's residence. She had to attend her cousin's wedding banquet, and Xie Jingyan couldn't stop her, nor did he intend to.

So after breakfast that day, Shen Wan dragged Xie Jingyan out the door and took a carriage to the Yun family.

As soon as the carriage entered the alley where the Yun family lived, Shen Wan felt the festive atmosphere. Red silk was hung on the trees outside the Yun family's courtyard wall, and the joy was overflowing.

The carriage stopped in front of the Yun family's gate. Shen Wan lifted the curtain and saw a familiar face she hadn't seen in a long time. She exclaimed happily, "Third Cousin..."

Yun Shan, the third young master of the Yun family.

When Yun Shan saw Shen Wan, he was all smiles. The last time the cousins ​​met was during the Chinese New Year.

Shen Wan got off the carriage and said, "I thought that since my eldest cousin got married, my third cousin wouldn't be coming back."

When she married Xie Jingyan, Yun Shan was busy with business and did not return to the capital.

Yun Mo got married, but Yun Shan didn't come back.

Yun Shan said with a sigh, "The Yun family's business is too extensive. When I received the news of your and Mo'er's marriage, I was in the northern desert. Even if I rode at full speed, I couldn't make it back to attend the wedding."

Northern Desert...

The Yun family's business has expanded to places as remote as the desert?

Shen Wan had no idea how her third cousin could complain about the Yun family's extensive business...

The Yun family's business has grown so large, and it's all thanks to them.

Shen Wan asked, "And what about this time?"

Yun Shan said, "This time, my elder brother is definitely going to be the one to marry me. My grandfather sent someone to tell me that if I don't come back to drink my elder brother's wedding wine, then he will treat me as if I don't have a grandson and kick me out of the family."

Shen Wan replied, "You didn't come back when your older cousin got married. Why did your maternal grandfather have to kick you out of the house? You clearly kicked yourself out of the house."

Yun Shan, "..."

Unable to respond.

He looked at Xie Jingyan, who was standing next to Shen Wan, and bowed to him, saying, "Greetings, Prince Ling."

Xie Jingyan nodded.

Tang Ze, Lu Cheng, Du Cheng'an, and Xu Ji walked out from there.

Tang Ze waved his folding fan and laughed, "I told you it was Prince Ling and Princess Ling who came, but you didn't believe me. I won. The three of you owe me a meal each."

The four of them came to help Yun Qi greet the guests, but it was still early and no guests had arrived yet. Bored, they found some amusement. Tang Ze thought that the guests were the Prince and Princess Ling, but the other three didn't believe him. So Tang Ze made a bet with the three of them: the loser would treat him to a meal.

Lu Cheng asked, "How can you be so sure it's them who came?"

Tang Ze smiled mysteriously. Under Lu Cheng's probing gaze, Tang Ze covered his mouth with his folding fan and slowly uttered two words, "henpecked."

Lu Cheng, "..."

Don't say it.

That makes some sense.

The Yun family is holding a wedding banquet, and Princess Ling will definitely want to arrive early, so Prince Ling has no choice but to accompany her.

Shen Wan said to Xie Jingyan, "I'm going to see my maternal grandmother."

Shen Wan took Yinshuang and Haitang to the inner courtyard.

Upon entering Liushuang Courtyard, Shen Wan saw Old Madam Yun sitting on a daybed.

Today, Madam Yun wore a dark red embroidered dress with round patterns, her hair was neatly combed, and she wore a gold and ruby ​​headdress, looking quite like an old lady from a noble family.

Shen Wan stepped forward and said with a smile, "Grandmother looks more than ten years younger than the last time I saw her."

When Madam Yun saw Shen Wan, her face lit up with a smile that seemed to burst with joy. When people are happy, they are in high spirits and look young.

However, Madam Yun knew that the Yun family's current prosperity was all thanks to Shen Wan and Prince Ling.

She beckoned Shen Wan to sit beside her, held Shen Wan's hand tightly, and after exchanging only a few words, the Fourth Madam and the Right Prime Minister's wife arrived.

Shen Wan was not surprised that the Fourth Madam arrived so early; what surprised her was that the Right Chancellor's wife had also arrived so early.

Well, today, it's not just Tang Ze and his three companions who are helping the Yun family entertain the guests. Yun Qi is marrying the Princess of Qinghe County. Today, not only will there be merchants who do business with the Yun family, but also many officials and their wives. The old lady of the Yun family was worried that the eldest and second wives of the Yun family wouldn't be able to chat with those noble ladies, so she asked the fourth wife to help take care of those officials' wives.

Lady Xuanping felt that as the future in-law of the Yun family, she should come and help. However, she was pregnant and had been vomiting badly lately, so she was too weak to do so. She wanted to find someone to go to the Yun family in her place. Just then, the Right Prime Minister's wife went to see her. When she heard about this, she immediately said that there was no need to find someone else to help. She would go to the Yun family early to help greet the guests.

With the help of the Fourth Madam and the Right Chancellor's wife, it's enough to take care of those officials' wives.

Having finished dealing with matters at the Shenjing military camp, he had some free time and came to the Yun family to help entertain the guests.

Although the Yun family was not prominent, the scale of their welcoming ceremony was so impressive that the ministers who had planned to send a gift through their stewards all changed their minds and came in person. Moreover, the Yun family's wedding banquet was only a few days after the Emperor bestowed the Yan family mansion upon Xie Jingyan.

The entire court was speculating whether there were hidden details in Consort Chen's case, and whether there was a possibility of overturning the verdict. If the speculation came true, the position of Crown Prince would most likely be out of reach for the eldest prince and the Prince of Jin.

If Prince Ling were to truly ascend to that position, given his doting affection for Princess Ling, the status of the Yun family, Princess Ling's maternal grandparents' family, would rise unimaginably. If we don't give the Yun family face now, we might not be able to reach them in the future.

Since we're just killing time anyway, there's no harm in coming to a wedding banquet. The Yun family's wedding banquet is being prepared by Imperial Chef Li and Imperial Chef Zhao.

Um.

The Yun family's wedding banquet was prepared by two imperial chefs.
