The Jiang family decorated the house with colorful lights and red silk fluttering in the wind, and the sound of firecrackers resounded through the sky, creating an atmosphere of joy and happiness.

In the Lanyue Pavilion, Jiang Yueyang sat in front of a bronze mirror and obediently let the female official arranged by the Ministry of Rites do her makeup.

The female official painted an exquisite peony flower on her forehead, lightly applied a layer of light blush on her cheeks and put on pearl flowers, making her look as shy and charming as the sunset.

Then, the female official used delicate brushstrokes to draw her eyebrows. The curved eyebrows made her eyes look as bright as stars.

Afterwards, her long hair was tied into a gorgeous bun, dotted with bright pearls and jade, sparkling with dazzling light.

After the makeup was completed, the female official put an exquisite phoenix crown on her and put on a gorgeous wedding dress.

The golden lines are glittering and magnificent.

Jiang Yueyang's beauty reached its peak at this moment, like a goddess descending to earth, making people unable to take their eyes off her.

At this time, Xiangling suddenly came in and said, "Miss, Master Ye sent someone to deliver a gift and a letter."

Jiang Yueyang picked up the letter on the gift and opened it. After reading the contents of the letter, she frowned slightly.

Ye Wuhen said in the letter that an urgent matter had occurred in Xuesha Pavilion and he had to deal with it personally, so he could not attend her wedding.

After he has dealt with the matter, he will definitely come to apologize.

Seeing that she looked unhappy, Xiangling asked, "Miss, did Master Ye say anything bad in the letter?"

"Something happened at his home." Jiang Yueyang put down the letter in her hand, "He can't come."

On the other side, Lu Yunting walked into the Lu family ancestral hall in a wedding dress and knelt in front of a number of tablets.

He kowtowed three times respectfully to the tablet, and then said, "Grandfather, father, mother, A Yue is going to marry his beloved girl today. She is the best girl in the world, and you will all love her. From now on, A Yue is no longer alone."

After saying this, he kowtowed three times respectfully again, then stood up and left.

Xu An, Gu Lan and Li Yan were standing outside waiting for him. The three of them were the best men today.

The wedding procession set out from the General's Mansion and headed towards the Jiang family in a mighty manner.

Lu Yunting rode a tall horse, wearing a red silk brocade robe, a jade belt around his waist, and a purple gold crown on his head, looking heroic.

The procession behind him was like a long dragon, with no end in sight. The float in the middle of the procession was decorated magnificently.

Along the way, there were loud gongs and drums and scattered flowers, attracting passers-by to stop and watch, and whisper.

"I didn't expect that the female official would actually marry General Lu."

"What's there to be surprised about? Your Majesty is a benevolent monarch with a broad mind and a heart for the world."

A chuckle.

"I heard that General Lu gave up all his military power in exchange for his marriage to that female official."

"Really? Where did you hear that?"

"It is unspeakable."

"Tsk~"

"It's fake, right? Didn't General Lu lead his troops to war not long ago?"

"It should be true. I have heard such rumors. It is said that the Lu Family Army is no longer called the Lu Family Army, but the Cangwu Army."

"Cangwu Army?"

"Handing over 300,000 troops for a mere woman... is it really worth it?"

"As one knows the temperature of water after drinking it, only General Lu knows whether it is worth it or not."

After an unknown amount of time, the wedding procession, coordinated by officials from the Ministry of Rites, arrived at the Jiang family residence at an auspicious time.

The official from the Ministry of Rites shouted, "The bridegroom is here to pick her up!"

Guling'er, Xiangling and several maids were seen guarding the door, forming a "human wall".

Gu Ling'er raised her chin towards Lu Yunting, Xu An and the other two, and said with a curled mouth: "Today, I have been ordered to stay here. As long as you answer three questions correctly, I will let you in."

"Ling'er, my brother is getting married today. For my sake, could you please show some mercy?"

Gu Linger crossed her arms and said, "Brother, this is not okay. This is the rule. If I let you in easily, I will have trouble explaining to the bride. Besides, the question was set by the bride herself."

Hearing this, Lu Yunting bowed slightly to them and said with a smile: "Since Yangyang wants to test me, you can set the questions."

"Then listen carefully." Gu Ling'er cleared her throat, "The first question is, what thing obviously belongs to you, but others use it more than you do?"

As soon as this question was asked, everyone present began to think about it.

After thinking hard for a while, Gu Lan reached out and pushed Li Yan beside him, "Great talent, do you know the answer?"

"Stop making noise." Li Yan couldn't figure it out for the time being.

Seeing this, Gu Linger reminded: "If you can't answer, you can't enter this door!"

"Miss Ling'er, my master has waited so long until today. Please be kind and give me a hint."

At this moment, Lu Yunting's eyes flashed, the corners of his mouth rose, and he said loudly: "It's a name. Although the name is yours, others often call it, and use it more than you do."

Everyone present suddenly understood.

"You're really good. The second question is, what gets dirtier the more you wash it? If you don't wash it, people will eat it, but if you wash it, no one will eat it?"

Everyone started whispering to each other again.

After understanding the characteristics of the question, Lu Yunting quickly guessed the answer and answered confidently: "It's water. The more water is used to wash things, the dirtier they become. Clean water can be drunk, but dirty water cannot be drunk."

Gu Ling'er was a little surprised, but continued, "The third question is, what has a head but no feet, but can travel all over the world?"

Lu Yunting did not think of the answer to this question immediately, but Li Yan did.

"The answer is a boat. A boat has a bow but no feet, and it can sail on water and travel all over the world."

Gu Linger curled her lips and said, "You have passed this level."

Everyone cheered, and Xu An couldn't wait to say, "Sir, we've passed the checkpoint, let's go in quickly."

Just as Lu Yunting and the others were about to step forward, unexpectedly, Xiangling and several of her maids blocked the door with their hands outstretched.

"Ling'er, you are dishonest. Didn't you say you would let us in if we answered correctly?"

Gu Ling'er grinned and argued, "What I said is, if you answer correctly, I will let you in. As for whether they will let you in or not, I don't know."

"You are cheating!"

"All's fair in war! You're a soldier!"

Xu An was choked and couldn't find words to refute for a moment.

At this time, Xiangling interrupted with a smile: "General Lu, we are easy to talk to. As long as you pay enough wedding money, you can enter through this door."

"You want wedding money? Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Xu An immediately took out the wedding money from his pocket and stuffed it into their pockets. "Is this enough?"

"Not enough."

Hearing this, Li Yan and Gu Lan also took out the wedding money they had brought with them and gave it to them, but they still got the reply that it was not enough.

In the end, Xu An and the other two emptied the wallets of Lin Ji and others (members of the Shadow Pavilion) and several officials from the Ministry of Rites who had come to help carry the betrothal gifts, and only then were they able to feed Xiangling and the others.

"Let's go pick up the bride!" When Xu An rushed in, he deliberately bumped into Gu Ling'er.

"Xu An!" Gu Ling'er chased after him and was about to beat him up.

It was such a joyous and lively scene!
