What Jiang Ziwei didn't know was that someone had been there even earlier than them.
Lin Muheng barely slept all night.
They spent a long time fussing around at the Prince's Mansion early in the morning.
The Green Bamboo Residence was brightly lit by candlelight.
Early in the morning, chaos erupted.
The prince wanted to dress himself up to look dashing and spirited.
The wardrobe was open, and all the clothes were either blue or black; not a single one was satisfactory.
Clothes were scattered all over the couch.
However, without careful inspection, it is impossible to distinguish any differences between these clothes; each one looks almost the same.
"I'll have the embroiderer send a few more sets," Ye Feng said immediately when he saw that the prince was not satisfied.
Lin Muheng said, "Embroidery shops all use this kind of thing."
Seeing the prince's displeasure, Ye Feng immediately said, "Your Highness, I will go out to purchase the goods right away."
"Have Manager Tong send over a few sets," Lin Muheng instructed.
Ye Feng looked up at the sky; Huafuxuan was still not open at this hour.
But when he saw the prince's worried face, he said, "I will take care of it right away."
Shopkeeper Tong was pulled out of bed by the night wind.
She looked at him incredulously: "Does Your Highness want to buy new clothes, or ready-made ones?"
"Stop with the nonsense, quickly send all the light-colored clothes to the Prince's mansion."
Shopkeeper Tong's mouth opened into an "O" shape.
When did Your Highness become so fond of dressing up?
"But Your Highness looks better in dark colors," Manager Tong couldn't help but mutter.
Ye Feng wanted to sew her mouth shut. He knew that the prince should wear dark colors, but the prince wanted to be flamboyant today when he went to see his mother-in-law. What could he do? He could only spoil his own prince.
The embroiderers were all filled with anxiety when they heard that the prince was urgently procuring clothes.
Could it be that the prince no longer likes their cooking?
The prince has never been picky before.
A female embroiderer secretly approached Ye Feng to inquire about the news.
Night Breeze said, "It's nothing. The prince just wants to dress up like a peacock today. It has nothing to do with the embroidery workshop."
Among a dazzling array of clothes, Lin Kongque finally put on a dark blue brocade robe.
Night Breeze: ...
All that effort for nothing.
Lin Muheng stood in front of the bronze mirror, oblivious to his surroundings.
The prince in the bronze mirror is tall and upright, with a cold and stern face and distinct features, as if he were sculpted.
The collar and cuffs of the brocade robe were trimmed with white fox fur, which was soft and smooth, making it look luxurious and exquisite.
Lin Muheng's lips curled up.
Night Breeze breathed a slight sigh of relief, looking at the prince with satisfaction.
After much fuss, I finally put on the dark blue brocade robe that I had prepared yesterday.
What suits you best is the best.
Dark colors best accentuate the prince's aloof and ethereal temperament.
Those moon-white robes, though beautiful, didn't suit the prince at all.
The night wind looked at the prince and grew increasingly proud.
If we go to the General's Mansion today, his prince will definitely catch everyone's eye.
It was worth all the effort the prince put in this morning.
The time to depart had finally come, and the prince straightened his sleeves.
His steps were firm and powerful, while Ye Feng and Ye Yu followed behind the prince with solemn and respectful expressions.
As he passed by, the servants all bowed their heads and paid their respects, not daring to show the slightest disrespect.
As he rode his tall horse toward the General's Mansion, Lin Muheng, as always, attracted the attention of many passersby.
Someone in the crowd exclaimed in admiration, "Your Highness is truly a peerless being, unforgettable at first sight."
Lin Muheng used to ignore all the praise he received.
Today, I found the sound particularly pleasant.
On this special day, it's always good to dress up nicely.
The general's mansion was not far from the prince's mansion; it took less than half an hour to get there by horse.
The Jiang family had already received the news, and General Jiang was waiting at the door with his two sons.
Seeing the prince riding over, they all walked towards him.
Prince Yu dismounted swiftly and cleanly.
Jiang He was secretly surprised; it was clear that Prince Yu was a skilled martial artist.
Jiang Zhongyong nodded in agreement; military officers always tend to take a second look at those who are capable.
Lin Muheng clasped his hands in a salute: "Greetings, General Jiang!"
Jiang Zhongyong stepped aside and bowed, saying, "Greetings, Your Highness!"
Afterwards, Jiang He and Jiang Hai met with Prince Yu separately. After exchanging pleasantries, everyone followed General Jiang into the mansion.
As soon as she entered the hall, Jiang Chuwei met Lin Muheng's eyes.
Lin Muheng's deep eyes seemed to hold the stars and the sea, shining with a warm light as he looked at Jiang Chuwei.
Lady Jiang looked at Prince Yu's eyes, which were glued to her daughter, and felt very satisfied.
Having lived to such an old age, Madam Jiang understands that love cannot be hidden.
From the moment Prince Yu entered the door, his heart and eyes were filled with thoughts of her daughter.
Madam Jiang didn't feel impolite at all; it was a good thing that Prince Yu only had eyes for Wei'er.
Lady Jiang and Prince Yu had a brief encounter.
On that day, at his daughter's coming-of-age ceremony, he came to propose to Wei'er.
Madam Jiang did not agree.
The Jiang family will not marry into the prince's family, nor will they be treacherous.
After being rejected, Prince Yu did not use his imperial power to forcefully pursue the matter.
Madam Jiang thought it was just a passing fancy of Prince Yu.
Unexpectedly, after so many years, he still loves Wei'er as much as ever.
Lady Jiang carefully examined Prince Yu.
No wonder there are always rumors in the capital that some noble lady is infatuated with Prince Yu; Madam Jiang is tired of hearing them.
It turns out there really are people in the world who look like immortals.
The Prince of Yu stood tall and imposing, with striking eyebrows and bright eyes, his features sculpted as if by magic. His eyebrows were thick and long, his nose straight, and his facial lines resolute and powerful. His dark skin further accentuated his rugged, military bearing.
His dark blue robe was embroidered with python patterns in gold thread, as if they were about to leap out, exuding a chilling masculine aura. His hair was as black as ink, tied up high with a hair crown, making him appear even more noble and dignified.
Lin Muheng bowed and greeted her: "Greetings, Madam Jiang!"
Madam Jiang immediately stepped aside; she could not accept the prince's courtesy.
Jiang Chuwei stared intently at Lin Muheng and gave him a thumbs up.
Their eyes met, and they smiled at each other.
Madam Jiang subtly tugged at her daughter's sleeve.
Young ladies, be more reserved!
Lin Muheng smiled.
I'm glad I didn't embarrass you.
After the guests and hosts took their seats, Lin Muheng sat in the head seat.
Jiang Jialian and Jiang Shen also sat obediently to the side today.
This shows how important today's meeting is.
General Jiang spoke first: "May I ask what brings Your Highness here today?"
"I'm asking to marry your daughter." Lin Muheng stated his purpose directly without hesitation.
Jiang Hai, who had been silent until now, asked, "Does Your Highness know the weight of these words?"
"Don't worry, Third Brother. Now that I've said this, I will take responsibility for Wei'er's happiness for the rest of her life."
Lin Muheng appeared calm and composed, but heaven knows his palms were sweaty. In his entire life, he had never been afraid of anyone.
He felt inexplicably nervous in front of his future father-in-law, brother-in-law, and the Jiang family.
When he naturally called out "Third Brother", everyone froze on the spot: Is Prince Yu in such a hurry?
Night Wind shook his head. Why was his prince acting like a young lad in front of the Jiang family?
General Jiang spoke up: "I wonder if His Majesty is aware of the Prince of Yu's visit?"
