Chapter 2758 I did this, is your Majesty happy?
"Is this true?"
Upon hearing the news that Li Bushang was getting married, Nan Yan was initially overjoyed. But then, she seemed a little hesitant to believe it. She looked at Tingfu, who had come to report the news, with doubt and asked, "Where did you hear this from?"
Tingfu said with a smile: "Why doesn't your Majesty believe me?"
“…”
"This is not something I made up, nor is it hearsay. Instead, the Ministry of Personnel received a report today that Lord Li is getting married and has requested three days of leave."
“…”
"Originally, these matters were directly approved by the Ministry of Personnel, but Your Majesty also knows who Lord Li is. He is not an ordinary person. The Minister of Personnel did not dare to make arbitrary decisions, so he asked the Emperor for instructions during the morning court session."
“…”
"The Emperor was also shocked and repeatedly asked if there was a mistake, whether Commander Fang's documents had been mistaken for Lord Li's. Later, someone summoned Lord Li to the court, and after a three-party confrontation, they confirmed that this was true."
“…”
"Master Li, we are really getting married!"
Nan Yan listened and felt happy and excited.
He couldn't help but stand up from his chair, but after standing up, he didn't know what to do. He just kept rubbing his hands together and walked around the Yonghe Palace. After a long while, he turned back to look at Tingfu and said, "So, did the emperor approve it?"
Tingfu smiled and said, "Of course it was approved."
“…”
"This is the first time in this dynasty that a minister has been married and the Emperor has personally granted marriage leave. I heard that after the morning court session, Lord Li was surrounded by people in the main hall and could hardly move. Even the old scholars from the Ministry of Rites came over to congratulate him, and everyone said they wanted to go to his house for the wedding banquet."
Nan Yan nodded as she listened, her face and eyes filled with uncontrollable joy, and she smiled repeatedly, "Good! Good!"
Ruoshui, who was standing by, couldn't help but laugh when she saw her like this: "Your Highness is just like marrying your own daughter-in-law."
After hearing this, Nan Yan glared at her at first, but she couldn't help laughing.
She said, "It's not that I'm marrying my daughter-in-law, but this child was brought back from Yongzhou by me. Although I didn't watch him grow up, I have the same affection for him as my own brother."
“…”
"Over the years, I've only seen him go through life and death, but never seen him enjoy happiness."
“…”
"Now, it's time to start a family and build a career."
As she was speaking, the eunuch guarding the gate walked over to the door and kowtowed to her, saying, "Your Majesty, Lord Li requests an audience."
"Oh? He's here?"
Nan Yan was stunned for a moment.
Normally, unless she summoned him, an outsider like Li Bushang would not be able to enter the harem or her Yonghe Palace. But now he came directly, obviously to report the happy event, and it must have been approved by Zhu Fengen.
Nan Yan immediately smiled and said, "Let him in."
"yes."
The young eunuch retreated, and after a while, he saw Li Bushang walking in from outside.
As soon as he entered the room, although no one spoke yet, he saw Aunt Tongyun, Ruoshui and Tingfu standing next to Nan Yan, all of them had happy expressions on their faces, especially Nan Yan, who even looked at him with her eyes curved with smiles. He knew that the news must have been passed on.
He stepped forward, kowtowed to Nan Yan and said, "Your humble servant greets the Imperial Concubine."
Nan Yan looked at him with a smile: "Get up quickly."
"Thank you, Madam."
Li Bushang stood up and met Nan Yan's smiling eyes. He smiled and said, "The weather is so nice today. Are you coming here to tell me some good news?"
Li Bushang nodded and said, "Yes."
“…”
"My humble servant is getting married."
As soon as she heard these words coming out of his mouth, it was as if it was set in stone, without any doubt or uncertainty, and the smile on Nan Yan's face deepened a little.
He nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, okay."
Li Bushang looked up at her, said nothing, and lowered his head again.
Nan Yan asked again, "When is the wedding date set?"
Li Bushang said, "The third day of next month."
"The third day of next month?"
Nan Yan was stunned when she heard this. After calculating in her mind, she immediately said, "It's not even twenty days yet."
"yes."
"Why are you in such a hurry? We need to organize a wedding properly. How can this little time be enough?"
Li Bushang said, "She decided it."
"Ah? Miss Xie ordered it."
"yes."
"Why did she choose this date?"
"She said that in recent days, that was the only auspicious day. Besides, she didn't want to delay it too long, as it might cause trouble."
Hearing the last four words, Nan Yan couldn't help laughing.
She somewhat understood what Xie Jiaojiao meant by that. Although Xie Jiaojiao was a girl, she was naturally outgoing, perhaps due to her frequent interactions with wolves, and her directness was undeniable. Li Bushan had been pursued by her own side, and Nan Yan, of course, didn't see anything wrong with that. Actively pursuing someone you liked was a good thing, as long as it involved no excessive tactics. Nan Yan greatly appreciated this direct and unpretentious nature.
Speaking of which, Zhu Feng, half of it was also due to my own pursuit.
However, Zhu Feng knew what he was thinking; and compared to the mature and steady Zhu Feng, Li Bushan was more taciturn, making it even more difficult to determine his thoughts.
Therefore, it is understandable that Xie Jiaojiao wants to get married quickly.
She thought for a moment and then said, "However, since it's a marriage, then you—let's not talk about your side for now, the elders of her family should come forward, right? I remember that she has a foster father, right?"
Li Bushang nodded and said, "Yes."
"Will her godfather come?"
"She happened to deliver a letter to her adoptive father a few days ago, saying that he had received the news and was preparing to rush to the capital. After calculating his schedule, he should be able to arrive within the next two days."
"That's good. After all, getting married is a big event, and it can't happen without the elders present."
Li Bushang looked up at her and said softly, "Yes."
Nan Yan said gently: "I know what you are thinking."
“…”
"Anyway, you can rest assured."
"……yes."
Feeling that Li Bushan's words sounded heavier than his usual cold tone, Nan Yan thought for a moment and asked Aunt Tongyun and the others to leave, leaving only herself and him sitting in the main hall. Of course, the door was open.
Nan Yan looked at the child in front of her - of course, he could no longer be called a child.
Now, no one could connect him with the dark and skinny little boy he once was. Witnessing this almost complete transformation, Nan Yan felt both relieved and happy.
She said softly, "It's not hurt. Do you have anything else to say to me?"
“…”
Li Bushang stood quietly in front of her.
After a long silence, he raised his head and looked at Nan Yan, and said softly, "I did this, is the queen happy?"
