One month later.
The Marquis's mansion was decorated with lanterns and colorful streamers, and people came in an endless stream to offer their congratulations.
To almost everyone's surprise, the heir of the Marquis of Wanning's mansion would marry a woman of ordinary status.
Surprisingly, Princess Fu'an and Marquis Wanning also agreed.
However, no matter what they thought in their hearts, no one dared to show it on their face.
No one present was a fool; on the day of the prince's wedding, no one dared to invite trouble.
Qiao Xuanwen was dressed in a red robe today, his handsome face radiant with an otherworldly charm, and his joy was undisguised.
In fact, the Marquis's Mansion had originally sent an invitation to the General's Mansion, but Qiao Xuanwen stopped them.
His men reported that Gu Li was still ordering people to search for Liu Yin.
It's been almost a month, why hasn't he given up yet? Qiao Xuanwen was somewhat displeased.
He can't let someone like that come to his big day.
Qiao Xuanwen did not want Liu Yin to see Gu Li again.
Although Liuyin was now willing to marry him, he couldn't help but feel uneasy.
Gu Li was an invincible general, a great hero in the eyes of many. But in the capital, he was just a mediocre playboy.
Having finally married the woman he loved, Qiao Xuanwen was determined not to allow anyone to ruin his wedding.
After repeatedly declining the wine cups offered by his friends, Qiao Xuanwen couldn't wait to return to the bridal chamber to see Liuyin.
Many people also noticed the urgency on his face.
Wei Chengyu found Qiao Xuanwen's appearance quite rare; who would have thought he would be the first among their group to get married?
In just one month, the previously arrogant and flamboyant heir of the Marquis of Wanning seemed to have vanished.
During this month, he kept asking Qiao Xuanwen to come out and play, but Qiao Xuanwen only agreed once or twice out of ten times.
Judging from Qiao Xuanwen's words, he only came out after obtaining the consent of the prospective heir apparent.
He even stopped going to the casino.
They said that losing once would cost several thousand taels of silver, so it would be better to buy jewelry for the future princess consort.
During the wedding ceremony, many people saw the bride. Even if they couldn't see her face clearly, they could tell she was a beauty just by looking at her back.
Wei Chengyu raised an eyebrow, her eyes curving slightly, and said to Qiao Xuanwen, "Are you in such a hurry to see your bride?"
Qiao Xuanwen retorted, "Today is my big day, so naturally I should go back early."
And he can't go back drunk.
Qiao Xuanwen thought to himself that if he went back reeking of alcohol, Liu Yin probably wouldn't let him sleep in the bed.
This won't do! It would be fine on any other day, but tonight is their wedding night.
"Once you get married in the future, you will naturally understand how I feel right now."
Qiao Xuanwen's tone was full of smugness as he said this.
"Alright, alright, you should go home now!"
"May you and your Crown Princess be forever united in heart and grow old together."
Wei Chengyu couldn't help but roll her eyes; it seemed she really liked it.
That's true. If he didn't like her, why would he marry a commoner?
The prince's marriage was a major event this month, and the marriage was even arranged by Marquis Wanning who went to the palace to make the request.
However, no one knows what this Crown Princess looks like, or even what her name is.
The only thing we know is that she's of ordinary status and definitely not a noblewoman from the capital.
For people of their status, it was one thing for a commoner woman to be a concubine, but no one was willing to marry her like Qiao Xuanwen.
It seems that Qiao Xuanwen is truly in love with that woman.
Wei Chengyu couldn't help but wonder what kind of woman could have the proud Crown Prince so completely under her thumb.
Putting everything else aside, just look at Qiao Xuanwen's personality. They've been playing around together all these years, so they know each other much better than just a little bit.
That the Crown Princess managed to "trap" him in the Marquis's mansion is truly remarkable!
*
In the newlywed room, where red candles flickered, a faint fragrance of cosmetics wafted through the air.
The embroidered silk quilt cover was already covered with red dates, peanuts, longans, and lotus seeds, a beautiful blessing for the newlyweds.
As soon as Qiao Xuanwen stepped into the room, he saw Liuyin sitting quietly by the bed, her beauty enhanced by the flickering candlelight.
Thinking that tonight was their wedding night, Qiao Xuanwen's heart pounded uncontrollably, like a turbulent lake, unable to calm down for a long time.
In fact, they had already done what they needed to do, and Qiao Xuanwen should have been used to it by now.
But today is different.
After tonight, she will be his rightful wife.
The man had been inside for a while, but hadn't yet lifted the veil.
Liu Yin frowned. Why was he taking so long? What was he doing?
Why aren't you coming over yet?
Hearing the woman's coquettish voice, Qiao Xuanwen finally came to his senses, "Coming."
When he reached Liu Yin, Qiao Xuanwen slowly lifted the veil.
What caught my eye was Liu Yin's beautiful, reproachful eyes and her stunningly beautiful face, which surpassed all others in beauty.
Red really suits her.
Qiao Xuanwen tucked a stray hair behind Liu Yin's ear, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly, his eyes darkening.
"It's all my fault, I shouldn't have kept you waiting for so long."
Qiao Xuanwen spoke in a hoarse voice, his eyes fixed on Liu Yin's lips.
Liu Yin was already used to the man's direct gaze. She tugged at his sleeve and said coquettishly, "I'm tired. I want to take a bath."
I got up way too early today.
Liuyin was dragged out of bed early in the morning to change clothes and put on makeup.
Since it was the Crown Prince's wedding, there were many rituals involved, and Liu Yin was already feeling a bit impatient.
"Okay, I'll take you there." Qiao Xuanwen lowered his head and kissed Liu Yin's lips, speaking softly.
