"What did the General consider?"
The old general sighed softly, as if he had made a big decision. "Su'er, I'll leave it to the prince from now on."
The Ninth Prince had long anticipated that the old general would agree. The last time he came to the general's mansion, he had proposed marriage to him. Although Jin Suting was already engaged, couldn't that be broken off?
"I will take good care of Miss Jin. On the day of the wedding banquet..."
"No rush," the old general interrupted the Ninth Prince. "Su'er just broke off her engagement, so it's not appropriate to arrange a wedding right now. I know my health isn't going to last much longer, so I want to settle this matter first. That way, Su'er will have someone to look after when I'm gone."
"I'll obey the general in everything. As long as Miss Jin marries me in the future, time is not a problem." The Ninth Prince's eyes were full of sincerity.
"Okay, I knew I wasn't wrong about him." The old general laughed heartily.
Next, the old general called Jin Suting over and, using the Ninth Prince's plan to open a restaurant as an excuse, asked the two to get along well first and discuss marriage later. Then, Jin Suting would not be so resistant.
The old general had already paved the way for Jin Suting's future, waiting for her to pursue what she wanted.

Funing West Street.
As dusk approached, the streets began to become lively. West Street was the most crowded street in Chang'an City, and it was mainly occupied by restaurants, wine shops, and entertainment venues.
Zuixianlou is right at the entrance of West Street. People who come to West Street must visit Zuixianlou. This is a habit developed by the people of Funing City.
Zuixianlou has stood firm for more than ten years, and it has its own unique characteristics, which is why it is popular among all classes.
It is also the main source of tax revenue for the imperial court. A large amount of silver flows into the national treasury every year. This includes the place where foreign envoys choose to live, or the place where the royal family needs to hold banquets outside the palace. It is not the first inn on Funing East Street, Longyuan Inn, but Zuixianlou on West Street, which provides a one-stop service for eating, drinking and having fun.
The new restaurant that the Ninth Prince wants to build has a fixed customer base of the nobles. It will take more than one day to surpass the achievements of Zuixianlou!
Jin Suting and the Ninth Prince sat in the royal carriage of the palace. The cushions were soft and the interior of the carriage was warm. Jin Suting didn't want to get off until they reached their destination.
The Ninth Prince helped Jin Suting open the curtain in a gentlemanly manner, his smile as warm as the sun in March, "It's slippery in the rain, be careful when you get off the car."
Jin Suting glanced at the Ninth Prince. He was nine years older than her and a member of the royal family. He was worshipped by thousands of people and was high and mighty. He was praised by thousands of girls in Funing like a flower on the mountain. She didn't expect that he was so considerate.
Jin Suting admitted that she felt very anxious.
Outside the carriage was a cacophony of voices: the cries of vendors, the neighing of carriages, the curses of drunken wretches in the tavern, and the music from the brothel...
West Street is really lively. Jin Suting landed steadily on the snow. It is worthy of being Funing at night, prosperous and lively.
The nightlife has just begun! Jin Suting came to West Street so close to night for the first time, and it was quite novel.
The Ninth Prince followed from behind, looking at Jin Ting with smiling eyes, "There are so many people here, hold my hand, be careful not to get separated."
"Ah?" Jin Ting didn't react immediately. "No need. I'll just follow the prince closely."
The Ninth Prince reached out and wrapped Jin Suting's small hand in his big hand. "I told you not to be so reserved. It's cold, I'll hold your hand to keep you warm."
"Okay, okay." She let him hold her hand and walked forward.
