The people in the team were either shouldering or carrying large boxes tied with red silk. Needless to say, the contents of the boxes were the betrothal gifts.

The people in front followed Lin Chen, and the people behind were still moving things down from the boat. The entire team stretched from the dock to Moqing City, stretching for four or five miles, marching in a mighty and ostentatious manner.

Along the way, they were throwing candy and money around, attracting countless eyeballs.

The children grabbed the candies and coins, put them in their clothes, and followed the team, skipping and jumping.

"What is this for?"

"Those boxes are wrapped in red silk. I wonder if they are here to propose marriage?"

"Paying a betrothal gift? Oh, which girl is so lucky? I'm afraid a big yard can't hold this much betrothal gift."

…

The people along the way pointed at the wedding procession.

Lin Chen knew his master's intentions very well. He was probably eager to announce the marriage to the world, so he did not hide it and said openly: "I am from Prince Chen's Mansion. I came here on behalf of Prince Chen to propose to City Lord Shen of Moqing City."

As soon as he said this, within a few hours, the news that Prince Chen and the Lord of Moqing City were going to get married spread like wildfire.

Arriving outside the Shen family's house, Lin Chen walked up and knocked on the door respectfully.

It was Kun San who opened the door.

Of course she knew Lin Chen. When she saw him and the large group of people behind him, she blinked in confusion, somewhat confused about the situation.

Lin Chen pretended not to know her and bowed his hands in a serious manner: "I am Lin Chen, the chief official of Prince Chen's Mansion. I am here to propose marriage to City Lord Shen on behalf of His Royal Highness Prince Chen. Please inform her."

Kun San went in expressionlessly, came out after a while and invited Lin Chen in.

As for the others, just stay outside for the time being.

Lin Chen saw Shen Yizhi and bowed to her with a smile: "Miss Shen, how are you?"

Shen Yizhi swept her consciousness outside and took in the grand ceremony of the betrothal ceremony. She couldn't help but hold her forehead and asked, "Why did your prince do such a thing?"

Lin Chen sat down, drank a sip of the tea brought by Kun San, and smiled comfortably.

"The prince said he wanted to give you a surprise."

The corner of Shen Yizi's mouth twitched. He was surprised, but as for joy... well, he was indeed happy.

Seeing that the betrothal gifts outside were piling up more and more, and more and more people were gathering around to watch the fun, Shen Yizhi had no choice but to say to Lin Chen, "Send someone to move all those boxes in."

The boxes were moved into the warehouse. When they were almost full, she went in, waved her hand, and put all the boxes into the space.

This grand wedding ceremony did not end until the evening.

Lin Chen stayed directly at the Shen residence. As for his men, they were taken to the City Lord's Mansion by Qian Wu.

After dinner, Lin Chen went out for a walk to help digest his food, and by the way, he also took a look at the grandeur of Moqing City built by the future princess in a short period of time.

He had heard a lot of rumors about Moqing City.

The Taoist bell that can automatically ring for those who have reached perfection in their skills, the Mingyue Villa where people linger, the beer that is sold far abroad, the Mingyue Academy that students from all over the world yearn for... every single one of them makes people curious.

But that night, Lin Chen was unable to see those things, because after being taken to the snack street by Kun San, he never came out again.

The snack street is filled with delicious food, and he considers himself knowledgeable, but he doesn't recognize most of them. How could he not be surprised?

After trying it out, there were only two words left in his mind - it smells so good.

When he came out of the street, he held his stomach in a very ungraceful manner.

After staying in Moqing City for two days, Lin Chen and his subordinates were already reluctant to leave.

No wonder Moqing City has developed so fast. A city that combines eating, drinking, playing and entertainment and provides various welfare benefits makes anyone who comes here reluctant to leave.

If they had not already settled in the imperial capital, they would have wanted to transfer their household registration here.

Fortunately, the prince had said before they came out that they didn't have to rush back after delivering the betrothal gifts, and they could just go to the imperial capital with the princess' wedding team.

Speaking of getting married, Lin Chen suddenly slapped his forehead. He said that he always felt that he had forgotten something. He had not shown Miss Shen the auspicious dates selected by the prince for the wedding! "August 9, September 9, October 20..." Shen Yizhi looked at the auspicious dates on the paper that were said to be calculated by the national teacher himself, and felt amused.

These days are too close.

Lin Chen glanced at her expression and said, "Miss Shen, the prince asked for the ninth day of the eighth month. He said that it would be the right time for the Mid-Autumn Festival and the family would be reunited. As for the time, you don't have to worry. The palace has enough manpower. Not to mention that there are still nearly two months to the ninth day of the eighth month, even if there is only half a month, the palace can prepare the wedding properly. The prince said that you just need to wait and get married with peace of mind."

Shen Yizhi called Qingbao and Yuanbao and asked them to give him some advice.

"Do you want your mother to marry your father sooner or later?"

Qing Bao: "Marry daddy?"

Shen Yizhi was about to explain, but Yuanbao did it for him: "After mother marries father, we can always see father. Mother, please choose this day."

He pointed to "August 9th" written on the red paper.

Compared to Qingbao's ignorance, Yuanbao has a much better understanding of these things. After all, as an intelligent puppet, he can remember and understand as long as he receives the corresponding information.

"Okay, then let's do it on August 9th." Shen Yizi made the decision.

Lin Chen let out a long sigh. The second task assigned to him by the prince was finally completed successfully.

After the news was passed back, Gu Xueting practiced sword for several hours with surging emotions. After his emotions calmed down a little, he came to Qingsheng Tower in a corner of the palace and told his mother the good news in front of her cenotaph.

After the wedding date was set, Shen Yizi began the leisurely process of waiting to be married.

The wedding dress had been decided several months ago, so she didn't need to worry about it.

As for the dowry——

Speaking of which, she has not yet told her father and her still young mother about her upcoming marriage.

Shen Yizhi prepared a plan and took out the photo stone: "Well, Dad, Xue Ting and I have discussed it and plan to hold the wedding on August 9th. Although you and mom won't be able to attend, don't worry, I will record the entire wedding process and send it to you."

She had already anticipated what her father's expression would be when she sent this message, and she waited anxiously for his reply.

Who knew that after waiting for a long time, there was no movement from the photo stone.

Dad won’t be mad, right?

At this moment, the stone screen of the photo stone lit up, indicating that new information had come in.
