"I have my own plans, and I am confident in my abilities."
"Tell me your plan," Ouyang Yi said, his face full of disbelief.
"This plan must be bold, direct, decisive, and efficient; it must be executed with the force of an autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves."
Song Ruier then explained the plan.
Ouyang Yi's eyes flickered as he re-examined the young man before him.
"I never expected that someone so young could come up with such a ruthless plan. No wonder Mu Tai trusts you."
"If Fifth Young Master thinks this plan is feasible, then let's implement it properly. I'm just a weak and helpless child, and I can only rely on the Ouyang family's methods."
"To be on the safe side, I'll take responsibility for coming up with this idea, and then I won't show my face again. Fifth Young Master, don't even think about looking for me."
After saying that, Song Ruier walked out of the east living room.
Ouyang Yi squinted as he left, then ordered, "Follow him and see what kind of background he has."
The hidden guards immediately followed. Song Ruier turned a few corners and entered an abandoned courtyard in a small alley. When the hidden guards followed her into the courtyard, there was no one there.
There was only a fallen human skin mask and an outer garment on the ground.
On the eighth day of the second lunar month, the weather was clear and sunny, with an endless blue sky and sunshine covering the earth.
Qiao Zhizhi and Lin Songyan got married.
The bright red brocade, from Linjiapu to Qiaojiapu, was sprinkled with gold dust and colorful stripes, shimmering in the sunlight.
At dusk, the wedding procession was very large, taking up most of the street. Firecrackers and drums were set off all the way, making it a very lively and exciting event that attracted many people to stop and watch.
The Qiao family took the betrothal gifts and dowry together as Qiao Zhizhi's private property and brought them to the Lin family.
The boxes and chests containing the gifts had been carried for a whole street and were still not finished, with a long tail following behind.
All these circumstances demonstrate how much the Lin and Qiao families valued Qiao Zhizhi.
People couldn't help but discuss: "It's been a long time since we've seen such a lively and grand wedding. This young lady, Zhizhi, is a talented young woman and a renowned painter in our capital. Perhaps she will become famous throughout the world in the future. Once she achieves something, the groom's family will pay extra attention to her."
"I heard that the Lin family followed the ceremony for a county princess. The Qiao family is also magnanimous. All these betrothal gifts went to Miss Zhizhi, and she even brought a dowry of the same standard. Miss Zhizhi is truly blessed."
Another person said, "However, it is said that Young Master Lin is infertile, so perhaps there is an element of compensatory treatment in this regard."
Others thought he was being a spoilsport: "Come on, why bring this up on their big day? Young Master Lin and Miss Zhizhi are so young, who knows when they'll be blessed with children. Besides, for a woman to receive such treatment on her wedding day is something many people can only dream of."
As they stepped onto the main wedding avenue, the wedding procession generously scattered sugar cakes on both sides, raining them down in abundance. People cheered and jumped up to grab them.
In stark contrast to the festive atmosphere, pairs of cold eyes, like snakes, lurked in the crowd and in the teahouses and restaurants on both sides, watching the bridal sedan chair.
"The sugar cakes will be scattered all the way until they have completely passed the main street, which may take about 15 minutes. We have plenty of time, but we need to be quick."
"You're in charge of rescuing people, and you're in charge of creating chaos within the honor guard, making them too busy to care about anything else," the leader assigned the tasks.
They didn't want to ruin someone's wedding, but the problem was that the people who approached them were offering too much.
