The wedding date has been set, so Fang Zhengyi naturally made preparations.

I went to the Ministry of Rites and asked about the relevant matters in detail.

In his previous life, he didn't know much about the marriage process, let alone the extremely complicated royal etiquette.

He studied very attentively and listened for half an incense stick of time before running away.

It makes my head hurt just listening to this, but I'll just have to make whatever arrangements are made when the time comes and just follow their instructions.

......

After finishing his shift, Fang Zhengyi was not in a hurry to go home.

It was already dark, but he was still strolling alone on the streets of the city, with carriages and horses following closely behind him.

Feel this unique silence.

There's an indescribable feeling in my heart...it's definitely not joy.

I thought getting married would be a happy thing, but when the day really came, I had too much to think about.

The relatives and friends from the previous life were not seen at the banquet.

All the gifts I gave in my previous life were wasted...tui!

Fang Zheng looked up at the sky and saw the bright moon rising quietly.

Looking at the bright moon, my eyes suddenly became moist.

Fang Zheng raised his hand to wipe it, and sighed inwardly.

After so many years, I still can't forget my hometown. I don't know how so many protagonists of online novels I read in my previous life did it.

Now I have a new home, many family members, and I am about to get married.

It's time to call it a day.

After another sigh, Fang Zheng was inspired to write a poem, and he shouted to the moon: "The bright moon in front of my bed..."

"Who the hell is crying? Can't I sleep?"

"Fuck! Do you have any morals? It's already dark, bro!"

"If you don't get out of here, I'll report it to the police!"

Hearing two or three scoldings from the street, Fang Zheng's face darkened, his poetic inspiration completely gone, and he left in disgrace.

Return home by carriage.

Fang Zheng lay down in the yard as usual.

Tonight felt a little weird. Usually Xiaotao would come out to pick me up and then call everyone else to eat.

It must be because I came back late and everyone else had already eaten.

He didn't think much about it and just rested with his eyes half closed.

Suddenly, a figure approached silently and placed a plate of snacks gently on the stone table next to Fang Zheng.

"Have you eaten dinner yet?"

From the voice, it’s Xiaotao.

Fang Zheng smiled without even looking up: "How did you know I was going to marry the princess?"

"......"

No one answered for about ten seconds. Fang Zheng felt something was wrong and quickly opened his eyes.

Under the light, Xiao Tao was standing right in front of him, staring at him.

Seeing that he had opened his eyes, Xiao Tao said expressionlessly, "How do you know that I know you're going to marry the princess?"

“???” Fang Zheng was completely confused.

I was just kidding...I just wanted to show off, what's wrong with that?

"Then how did you know?" Fang Zheng asked hurriedly.

Xiao Tao still had no expression on her face: "This afternoon, the Ministry of Rites sent someone to our house and asked us to prepare some things. They also mentioned this matter. Congratulations, Master, you are going to be a royal consort."

"Ah...hahaha! Young Master, isn't it my due as the consort of the emperor? It's all a small matter, calm down!"

Fang Zhengyi laughed heartlessly, but it soon turned into a dry laugh.

Xiao Tao in front of me didn't look happy at all.

The atmosphere is becoming increasingly wrong, even Brother Biao can spot the problem here!

Fang Zhengyi coughed twice awkwardly and asked cautiously, "What's wrong, Xiaotao? What happened at home?"

Xiao Tao pursed her lips: "It's okay."

Fang Zheng felt relieved and was about to say a few words to lighten the atmosphere when he vaguely seemed to see Xiao Tao's eyes turn red.

He quickly shut his mouth.

Then Xiao Tao said in a trembling voice: "Listen, I heard... the prince consort has a lot of rules. If you go to the princess's mansion, I will not be able to follow you in the future."

"What are you thinking about! The rules are for outsiders to see, why do you take them seriously? Just live your life as usual. With the young master here, no one can bully you!"

Little girl, you think a lot.

So what if I marry a princess? Can I still be bound by rules?

It turns out that Xiaotao was lawless in Taoyuan County, but it seems that she is afraid now.

Fang Zhengyi laughed secretly in his heart.

"What are you still doing here? Go back and have some rest."

Xiao Tao didn't move when she heard that and just stood there blankly.

Fang Zheng was annoyed by being stared at: "What's wrong with you? Why are you staring at me?"

"I...I..." Xiao Tao said "I" several times, wanting to say something but stopping herself, and finally made up her mind.

She walked closer to Fang Zheng and looked at him with burning eyes: "Have you ever treated me as a woman?"

"This...what are you saying? If I don't treat you as a woman, how can I treat you as a man?"

Xiao Tao's condition today, coupled with the weirdness of the conversation, made Fang Zhengyi feel creepy.

He sat upright and looked at Xiaotao.

When Xiao Tao heard Fang Zheng say this, she burst into tears: "Of course I'm happy that there is a mistress at home. I'm happier than anyone else that you're getting married..."

"But if you marry a princess, you can't take a concubine. Can I still follow you in the future?"

"You treat me like a woman, why don't you look at me straight in the eye!"

"You always treat me like a little girl, making me learn needlework, mathematics, and read the Four Books and Five Classics. Xiaotao's life was given by you, and I want to serve you all my life. I have never expected anything else, but I hope to be with you forever in the future. But now you are a prince consort, how can I serve you in the future?"

"Do you understand my feelings? Are you pretending to be stupid or do you really not understand? I am also a woman, and I like you. But you have brought two women home, and you don't even look at me."
