On the fifth day of the tenth month, the Duke of Jin's mansion in the capital was brightly decorated and filled with guests, creating a lively atmosphere.
The entire capital knows that Bei Yan, the youngest daughter of the Duke of Jin, who holds an extraordinary position in the capital, has come of age today!
The entire Duke of Jin's mansion was bustling with activity, even the head of the household, Bei Xiao, was busy greeting guests among the crowd.
Meanwhile, Bei Yan, the person in question, was leisurely lying on a tree in his yard, chewing on a blade of grass and dozing off with his eyes half-closed.
Since she didn't have to show her face today, she was happy to have some peace and quiet.
The familiar, crisp scent of mint wafted into my nostrils, and a deep, magnetic voice sounded in my ear, "Madam, I'm going to prepare to propose marriage."
Bei Yan waved his hand without even opening his eyes: "Go, go."
She raised her hand to brush away a strand of hair that was covering Bei Yan's face, and said gently, "Wait for me."
Bei Yan waved his hand, "Go, go."
She wants to sleep.
Jun Lin chuckled softly. This carefree little fellow raised his hand and set up a barrier around Bei Yan to prevent mosquitoes from biting him.
After doing all this, he flew off towards the outside of the Duke of Jin's mansion.
Inside the Duke of Jin's mansion, Bei Xiao was exchanging polite greetings with each guest when Bei Yifeng entered from outside the gate, walked up to Bei Xiao, and whispered a few words in his ear.
Bei Xiao's eyes lit up, and he was overjoyed: They've arrived!
Those around him were puzzled when they heard a loud commotion of gongs and drums coming from the doorway. Bei Hong, who had been drinking and chatting with some old friends, stood up and rushed towards the door.
Bei Xiao followed closely behind, leaving behind a group of guests who were unaware of the situation and began to discuss it amongst themselves.
"What happened to the old Duke of Jin and the Duke of Jin?"
"I don't know."
"Everyone, please be patient and come with me." Bei Yifeng is twenty-three years old this year and graduated from the academy three years ago.
In the past three years, he has helped Bei Xiao handle many matters, big and small, and now he has the demeanor of a future head of the family.
Everyone clasped their hands in response and followed Bei Yifeng to the front hall.
Outside the gate of the Duke of Jin's mansion.
Junlin was still dressed in a silver-white robe, his figure standing tall like a god.
Behind Junlin were rows of people and boxes that almost filled the area around the entrance of the Duke of Jin's mansion.
Upon seeing Junlin, Bei Hong's old face instantly blossomed into a smile, and he held Junlin's hand, showering him with concern.
Bei Xiao was also happy to see Jun Lin, but due to the inappropriate occasion, he couldn't stand with his back turned in front of the door like his father.
Jun Lin clasped his hands in a fist salute and bowed slightly to Bei Xiao: "Uncle"
Bei Xiao nodded, and a group of people led by Bei Yifeng followed closely behind.
"Duke of Jin, what is this...?" one person couldn't help but ask curiously.
Jun Lin calmly took out a letter from his sleeve, and bowed to Bei Xiao again.
"I, Junlin, have long admired the Duke's daughter and have come today to propose marriage. I hope the Duke will accept my proposal."
The crowd gasped in disbelief.
"Who is this guy? He actually came to propose marriage in such a grand manner on the day the princess came of age. He really has commendable courage."
"Who knows? But judging from the old Duke of Jin's attitude towards him, they must know each other."
"Hey, I know, I know! This guy is Junlin, that rich businessman who's recently risen to prominence!"
"What?! It's him! I heard he's from the Immortal Realm!"
"you do not say!"
The crowd chattered amongst themselves, but Bei Xiao ignored them, walked down the steps, took the invitation from Jun Lin, and then helped Jun Lin up.
This meant that Bei Xiao had agreed to the marriage. Everyone gasped in shock. This...this...it's done?!
