By the way, aren't the people in their family too capricious?
It's clear that they want her to be a child bride!
"Grandpa, isn't this time a little too tight?"
Before Ling Wentian could say anything, Wei Jie had already answered her: "Everything that needs to be prepared has been prepared. You just need to show up at the Fengwang Mansion on that day."
Ling Yuan was even more puzzled when she heard this: "Are you ready? When did this happen?"
"After returning to Beijing."
His voice was light and clear, like calm water, but to other people's ears, it sounded like a raging storm.
Are you ready to go after returning to Beijing?
My God, how much self-confidence does this require?
Although she had known for a long time that she would inevitably get married this year, she had never thought that time would pass so quickly!
She frowned in disapproval, "No, there's only half a month left. I won't be able to sew my dowry in time. Even if you're in a hurry, you can't expect to get married in half a month, right?"
"It will take at least ten days to get from here to Siyou Country. How can this wedding procession be that fast? Do you want to torture me to death?"
Wei Jie looked at her thoughtfully: "Then tell me, when?"
The corner of Ling Yuan's mouth twitched. "Don't we need to look at the date for this? How can it be done at any time I say?"
Isn't this a bit too perfunctory?
Ling Yuan frowned unhappily. Although something unexpected might happen over time, this was her lifelong event in ancient times after all. How could she be careless about it?
What made her even more speechless was that the attitude of the Ling family was too cooperative.
"Girl, March 20th is the date that the Phoenix King has picked in advance. As for the dowry, we have already started preparing it since you and the Phoenix King decided to get married. Five days is more than enough time to prepare. Even if we set off five days later, it will not be delayed at all."
Ling Wuya's words made Ling Yuan's head explode, as if something had exploded.
My God, what an honor this is!
What was her identity at that time?
How could a little maid from Lingjiazhuang actually mobilize so much effort that the old man personally prepared her dowry?
I was so shocked that I couldn't utter a word for a long time.
No wonder, no wonder they don't care about such a tight schedule.
It's clear that everything is ready except for the east wind!
"Grandpa, Dad, Mom, are you too nice to Yuan'er?"
Ling Yuan's voice was choked with sobs and she looked at everyone with red eyes.
Mu Qing walked up to her and gently pinched her face: "Silly girl, you have been in Lingjia Village for seven years and have long been integrated with us. We naturally cannot be careless about your marriage."
"At that time, your grandfather wanted to prevent you from suffering any loss in the Phoenix Palace, so the size of the dowry was comparable to your sister's."
"That's great. Now that you are our daughter, the dowry we prepared is legitimate and no one can find fault with it."
Ling Wentian raised his eyebrows proudly at Ling Yuan, "What do you think, Yuan'er? Grandpa is still the one who has foresight, right? Look, isn't it coming in handy now? This Wei kid is right, you will get married sooner or later anyway, what difference does it make whether it's early or late?"
"It's better to go there sooner rather than later, especially since you are now a real celebrity in the Four Continents. If you marry there sooner and change your status, it will also divert people's attention, right?"
Ling Yuan looked at Ling Wentian with a helpless look. Is this possible?
Originally, she wanted to sort out her properties and pick out some that could be used as a dowry, but she didn't expect that she wouldn't need to worry about it.
The Ling family had already taken care of everything that needed to be prepared and thought of for her.
For a moment, she didn't know how to respond. She could only stare blankly at this family who gave her the warmth and affection, unable to utter a word for a long time.
The Ling family did not avoid Wei Jie in telling her about every little thing they did to her, and Wei Jie saw it all. It was unexpected yet a little bit like it was natural.
Isn't this what family love is?
You are good to me and I am good to you, there is no calculation, only warmth?
The corners of his mouth moved, but his throat felt a little dry. In comparison, the eighteen years he had lived were truly meaningless.
There is no warmth, only coldness.
There are 365 days in a year, and is there any day when we don't have to live in intrigue?
That kind of life can be described as a disaster.
He twitched the corner of his mouth, and suddenly realized that dragging Ling Yuan into this fire pit was a very immoral act.
However, he had no other choice. Even without him, with Ling Yuan's abilities, it would be impossible for her to live a peaceful life.
Rather than giving it to others for their benefit, it is better to be used by them.
"Do you have any other requests?"
When Wei Jie asked her this, Ling Yuan curled her lips and said, "What else can I say? You have prepared everything, so I will... marry you!"
But Ling Yuan looked bitter and resentful, Ling Yun chuckled, causing Ling Yi to flick her finger in annoyance, "Don't gloat over other people's misfortune, you'll be the next one."
Lingyun's eyebrows changed color, and she looked at her brother: "Me? Brother, you are wrong, right? My elder brother hasn't married yet, how can I, as a younger sister, get married first? This is inappropriate!"
Ling Yi glanced at her unhappily, "It's not that easy to choose the future wife of the owner of Lingjia Manor. We men can't compare to you women who are as young as flowers."
What this means is that a girl's most precious years are those few years. If she doesn't get married now, when will she get married?
Lingyun curled her lips in disapproval, "We'll talk about it later. What's at stake now is Yuan'er's marriage, not me. Don't miss the point."
Ling Yuan nodded, and the old man personally made the decision: "Okay, since our Yuan'er agrees, Wei boy, then you don't have to delay here, go back and prepare!"
Unexpectedly, Wei Jie smiled faintly and said, "I have brought everything I should bring. I just need to inform you of the wedding date. In order to save time, I will marry you in person."
Ling Yuan looked up in surprise and swallowed hard: "You want to marry her in person?"
"No?" Facing his question, she shook her head stiffly: "It's not that I can't, it's that it's too 'surprising'!
As he spoke, he forced a smile and pointed out the word "surprise" through gritted teeth.
Wei Jie said indifferently: "I will naturally marry my princess in person, so you should prepare well. I will come to your house in five days."
Having said this, he bid farewell to Ling Wentian, Ling Wuya and Mu Qing neatly and even nodded to the Ling brothers and sisters before leaving.
It wasn't until he left that Ling Yuan regained a little sense of reality: "Did I really get married like this?"
Ling Yun clasped her hands together, looking expectant: "This is the most important happy event in Lingjia Village in all these years. Haha, I never thought that the first one among the three of us to get married would be you, the youngest. Ha, don't say it, this feeling is really different. However, the attitude of the Phoenix King can still be rated full marks. He actually married her in person. I'm afraid this has never happened in the history of marriage alliances, right?"
Ling Yuan rolled her eyes. "You really believe it? Didn't he just say that? In order to save time, if he goes back now and sends someone over, how long will it take?"
Lingyun didn't think so. "Silly girl, he can just send a letter here and send someone to marry you there. It won't delay you at all. He did this obviously for your sake. This marriage is good. As long as he treats you well in the future, we will be relieved, right, Dad and Mom, ok?"
Ling Wuya nodded in agreement, "Yun'er is right. Another possibility is that he doesn't want any more problems to happen at the wedding, so he wants to escort you personally. He has considered almost all possible events. It seems that this Wei boy still cares about you."
Ling Yuan still waved her hands indifferently: "Dad, Mom, he did this not only for my own good, but also for his own good. Oh, I won't tell you anymore. You have all been bewitched by that guy. Forget it, you can think whatever you want. I think you should get busy, right? Then I will also prepare. I said I would get married, but I didn't prepare myself at all. There are really too many things to organize and too many letters to send."
Ling Yuan complained as he walked, his chubby face completely wrinkled, which made the Ling family members laugh.
"Our Yuan'er is really different. If it were any other little girl, she would probably be shy and timid, right? Look at her, she looks distressed. This is not the expression a girl who is about to get married should have at all!"
Although I am very proud that my daughter has grown up, I can't help but shed tears of sympathy for myself when I think that this little girl has only been my daughter for a dozen days and will soon become someone else's.
"Our daughter is only eleven years old. How big a surprise do you expect her to give you? This is fine. At least a good wedding doesn't have to be sad and sorrowful. Our Yuan'er is generous and open-minded. We can't be petty. Everyone, cheer up and devote yourself to preparing for Yuan'er's wedding. Understand?"
"Yes, ma'am."
"Yes, mother, I promise to complete the task."

Therefore, in the next five days, all the staff of Lingjiazhuang were mobilized. When there was a shortage of manpower, they even transferred people from Yaowang Valley, just to create a wedding for their second daughter that was no less than that of a royal princess.
Everyone in Fengchi Villa couldn't hold back any longer, and were ready to come out in full force, but Ling Yuan gave the order, "If you want to expose my identity, just go ahead." After this, who dared to move? They could only stay there in frustration.
But the fact that their bodies were still there did not affect their brains. After careful consideration, they decided to rely on the power of their family and try their best to add luster to Ling Yuan's marriage.
Fortunately, Ling Yuan created a miracle in the City That Never Sleeps, so it is not too abrupt to give back to her for this reason.
In addition to these relatives and friends, all the major forces in the four continents who have been deeply favored by these two in the City That Never Sleeps are also gearing up to send their most sincere blessings on the day of the Phoenix King's wedding.
However, there were also those who gave their gifts reluctantly, or even with gritted teeth, such as the Marquis of Loyalty, the royal family of Mei Kingdom, and Wei Yuchen who did not know the wedding date until right before the wedding.
Even though Wei Jie did not invite them this time, as people of Mei, on the premise of marriage with Siyou, not only them, but also other influential forces and royal families in Mei should do their best.
Therefore, even if Li Hongtao and Li Quan are unwilling, they can only keep it in their hearts and not show it openly. After all, this is a matter of peace and harmony between the two countries. As members of the royal family, they should increase their investment so as not to damage the national prestige.
Of course, their reluctance did not affect the actions of the Fengwang Mansion. In just five days, the Fengwang Mansion had changed completely from top to bottom. Not only was it decorated with joy and red silk everywhere, but even the street in front of the Fengwang Mansion was contracted by the Fengwang Mansion. Lanterns, red silk, flowers, and everything needed for the wedding were booked in advance, waiting for the 20th of March to become famous all over the world.
The people of Siyou Kingdom were also alarmed by the fact that King Feng did not care about the royal family's face at all. Privately, they were constantly experiencing friction because of various tests. They were afraid that they would accidentally stand on the wrong side and regret it in the future.
Ever since Wei Yuchen issued the imperial decree that he would no longer make decisions for Wei Jie's marriage, they had sensitively sensed that the fight between the two brothers had changed from implicit expressions in the early years to blatant provocations today. Especially since King Feng really didn't give them any face this time and really prepared his own marriage as if it was a matter of course, which shocked them even more.
This contest was really unexpected. I had gone to Lingjiazhuang with great fanfare, thinking that it was just to set a wedding date. I didn't expect that the wedding date was set, but it was set so tensely.
If the Phoenix Palace had not taken action, how could they have known that the Phoenix King’s wedding would be in half a month?
This clearly shows that you don't intend to give others time to react!
Ever since the wedding date was set, not to mention them, even the Emperor had been unable to invite the giant Buddha from the Phoenix Palace, which made him so angry that his already serious mental illness seemed to have become even worse.
Despite the chaos outside, it did not affect the male protagonist of this incident at all.
The Fengwang Mansion continued to do its usual business, as if "nothing is more important than my marriage".
It was not until five days later that they found out that the Phoenix King had never returned and that he had gone there to marry the future Phoenix Queen in person.
As soon as the news came out, the world was in an uproar again.
They speculated that the future Phoenix Princess was only eleven years old, and she was said to be dark and fat. What on earth did His Majesty the Phoenix King like about her?
He was willing to marry her even at the risk of becoming an enemy of the emperor?
Could it be that it is really related to the brilliant achievements that Ling Yuan created in the City That Never Sleeps?
Thinking about it this way, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong. Everyone wants to marry a woman who is beneficial to him, especially if it is done openly. This is completely expected and reasonable. Of course, if it weren't for the fact that the Emperor of Siyou Kingdom took the opportunity to cause chaos, this marriage would be perfect and impeccable.
At that moment, he understood why King Feng was so persistent and was determined to make this marriage happen even at the risk of offending the emperors of both countries.
Due to limited time, Lingjiazhuang prepared the dowry to the greatest extent possible. Even the 160 betrothal gifts sent by the Phoenix King were placed in Ling Yuan's dowry without any touch.
On the ninth day of March, the sky was clear and cloudless, and it was also the season of spring when flowers were in full bloom. The Phoenix King's wedding procession and the Lingjiazhuang's bride-sending procession blocked all the major transportation routes near Lingshan.
Ling Yuan, wearing a bright red wedding dress, was carried out of Lingjiazhuang by Ling Yi and personally delivered to Wei Jie.
Due to the long journey, the wedding car prepared for Ling Yuan was extra spacious, luxurious and comfortable. The moment she got in the car, she opened the curtain and looked at the Wu Ya couple standing at the door wiping their tears. Ling Wentian's throat choked unconsciously and tears fell uncontrollably.
Before she could fully experience the warmth of home, she was sent to the wedding car. She didn't know when she would see him again.
Grandpa, dad, mom, brother, sister, Yuan'er will be fine and bless you all the best. Take care, my dearest ones.
Wei Jie was also wearing a bright red suit and riding on a tall horse. He was tall and straight by nature, and under the sunlight and in the joyous atmosphere, the originally centipede-like twisted lines on his face seemed to have weakened a little. His perfect profile attracted countless people's attention.
Ling Yuan looked at his back, clenched the apple in her hand tightly, and pursed her red lips into a straight line. Wei Jie, we should be able to treat each other with respect, right?
"Oh my god, is this the legendary war king of Siyou country? God, he is so impressive. With this kind of attire, the scar doesn't look scary at all. They even say he is bloodthirsty and cruel. Just based on what he did to the future Phoenix Princess, he is worthy of learning for those men. Just look at him, how majestic and domineering he is!"
"It's hard to imagine how handsome the Phoenix King would be without his scar. Just his profile is enough to make people fall in love with him. If he had a complete face, wouldn't it be so stunning that it would move the heavens and the earth and make the ghosts weep?"
"Wow, His Highness the Phoenix King is more manly like this. Look at him, look at him quickly, the aura he exudes in his every move is unmatched by ordinary people. Ah, this future Phoenix King's Consort is really enviable!"
"That's right. Not only is she loved by everyone in Lingjia Village, but she has even won the heart of the God of War at such a young age. She should not be underestimated! And, look at that wedding procession that is so long that you can't see the end of it. My God, how many dowries does it take?"
"I heard that Lingjiazhuang even sent all the betrothal gifts that King Feng had sent before. How could the dowry team not be long? I'm afraid that even the princess of the current dynasty doesn't have this kind of treatment, right?"
"Hush, don't talk, come and count, how many dowries does the second young lady of Lingjiazhuang have? One, two, three, four, five..."
When the wedding procession gradually disappeared from everyone's sight, some people came to their senses from their shock: "Oh my God, did we count correctly just now? Three hundred and sixty sets of dowry!"
"You counted correctly, because we counted the same number. Oh my God, who on earth is this Princess Feng? Isn't this treatment too dazzling? Three hundred and sixty sets, I'm afraid that only the three princesses of the royal family can get so much dowry? This Ling Family Manor must have prepared two hundred sets, two hundred sets of dowry!"
"What a terrifying number! If the second young lady of the Ling family marries like this, I'm afraid no one will dare to look down on her. Not only is His Royal Highness the Phoenix King so valued, but even the Ling family loves her so much, how can her future status be lower? So what if she's a little ugly and fat? Isn't she still doing so well?"
"This is strength, real strength!"
…
There were 360 dowries, excluding Wei Jie's 160, the remaining 200 were of which 150 were sent by Lingjiazhuang and the royal family, and the remaining 50 were her own. However, in the end, no matter who sent them, they were all incorporated into the dowry team, and the sensation created was naturally unprecedented.
From Lingshan to Siyou Country, no matter where they went, they were the most watched place.
Not only Wei Jie himself, the dowry team, and of course the unique charm exuded by her brother Yi, the bridegroom, all blocked most of the attention focused on her.
Because time was tight, the wedding procession consisted entirely of carriages and horses, with no one walking. So they were basically rushing along the way, and by the time they arrived at the border of Siyou State, it was already March 18th, and there was only more than a day left until the wedding.
Even though Ling Yuan was a frequent traveler, he still felt miserable as the carriage swayed from side to side all the way.
Fortunately, they were safe and sound throughout the journey. Perhaps it was because their target was too big, or perhaps it was because of the presence of Wei Jie, the blatant god of killing, they actually had a safe journey and arrived at the gate of the Phoenix Palace just in time.
After entering the capital, Ling Yuan's carriage was surrounded by long red carpets, flowers, red silk, and lanterns. With music and dance all the way, it entered the Phoenix Palace in a lively and bustling manner.
