Xiao Sheng had not expected Li Xingran to be so generous.
[This gold was earned from the common people, so I must return it. In my current space, placing one ingot of gold can conjure countless more, so I have no use for gold anymore.]
Xiao Sheng then suddenly realized what was going on.
The Li family was utterly astonished when they heard this.
Xiao Sheng announced that Nan Chen Kingdom would be exempt from taxes for thirty years.
The whole country rejoiced!
After meeting with the people, Li Xingran and Xiao Sheng returned to the palace by carriage.
The wedding ceremony was not complicated.
After returning to the palace, Xiao Sheng and Li Xingran worshipped Heaven and Earth, then went to the Imperial Ancestral Temple to offer incense and pray to the ancestors of the Xiao family. The bride of the Xiao family was named Li. Then the couple bowed to each other, and the ceremony was considered complete.
Subsequently, Xiao Ling, the Minister of the Court of Imperial Clan Affairs, handed two marriage certificates bearing the imperial seal to Xiao Sheng and Li Xingran respectively.
"Xingran, this is the marriage certificate you mentioned. If any of our Xiao family's sons ever wrong you, you can bring this marriage certificate to me, and I'll help you get a divorce!"
"Thank you, great-grandfather!" Li Xingran accepted the marriage certificate with a smile.
She glanced at Xiao Sheng smugly.
Xiao Sheng felt a chill run down his spine.
So, the reason Li Xingran said she wanted to meet the Xiao family elders was to get this marriage certificate!
“How could I possibly betray you? I’ve always remained chaste,” Xiao Sheng whispered to Li Xingran.
Xiao Ling said, "Sheng'er, save your sweet talk for your wedding night. If you dare to let Xingran down, I won't give you any face."
"Sheng'er cherishes Xingran too much to do anything disgraceful. Great-grandfather, please rest assured!"
Xiao Sheng swore an oath to the heavens.
"By the way, once you're married, work hard and have children as soon as possible. Otherwise, the palace will be too quiet these past few years since you've been away. Having more children will make it more lively."
"Xingran, you have to work hard too! Have more babies!"
Xiao Ling repeatedly gave instructions.
Li Xingran smiled and nodded in agreement.
After the emperor and empress were escorted into their bridal chamber, everyone told them that they didn't need to come out again, as they would eat the banquet on their own.
Meanwhile, the people of the capital city were enjoying the emperor and empress's wedding banquet.
All the restaurants, big and small, in the capital city are hosting the Emperor and Empress's wedding banquet today.
The lively scene had the people drunk even before they had a chance to drink.
This is such a wonderful life, and it was created for them by the newlyweds who got married today. How exciting!
