"The sun is shining brightly! Didn't you see that the princess's phoenix coronet and wedding gown are woven with gold thread? Of course they'd shine when the sun shines on them!"
"Heavens! The people around the princess are so handsome! To have one as my husband would be a dream come true!"
"And Miss Nanxing and Doctor Xie look so beautiful today too!"
The occasional whispers of passersby reached Xie Yushu's ears, and she generously bowed and thanked them.
When they arrived at the gate of the Han residence, it was just in time for the auspicious hour.
Han Zhongyu's residence was already under heavy guard.
Xie Yushu thought that she could pick up the person by throwing out a few red envelopes, but she was intercepted by several people outside, both civil and military.
Upon seeing Xie Yushu arrive, Yi Shuihan spoke first.
"Princess, our Eryu is not so easy to marry. Our Eryu is skilled in both literature and martial arts. If you don't have some ability, you won't be able to take her away!"
Xie Yushu smiled
"You guys are fast! You flew all the way from over a hundred miles away!"
"Tch! Eryu hasn't even left the capital yet and she's already sending us a letter! We're all here today to make a special effort to support her. Don't think that just because you're trying to trick Eryu into marrying into your family, she's easy to marry!"
If you don't have the skills and sincerity, you can't take them away!
"How could that be? Putting aside my abilities, I've prepared my sincerity to the fullest extent. No one is more sincere than me!"
"A gentle breeze blows through the Orchid Pavilion; sincere intentions are offered!"
Upon hearing this, one of the Qingfeng Lanting members stepped forward carrying a small flower basket. The baskets weren't filled with flowers, but with glittering golden peanuts. Without hesitation, Qingfeng Lanting grabbed the peanuts and started throwing them at them.
"Brothers, today is a day of great fortune! Gold is falling from the sky, a once-in-a-century event! Don't be shy!"
"Oh my god, guys, what are we supposed to do if you guys play like this?!"
Most of the scholars who joined the Jiemen Sect were government officials, while the martial artists were Lanting and his close friend Yi Shuihan, along with a few subordinates.
Although none of them were poor, who could stand it when someone threw out golden peanuts, each weighing two ounces and equivalent to one or two months' salary, and they threw out handfuls at a time?
They couldn't resist grabbing the golden peanuts immediately.
In the end, only Yi Shuihan and a few others from Lanting managed to remain unmoved by the gold, their hearts aching as they guarded the gate for Han Zhongyu.
Lanting and his companions were truly heartbroken as they intercepted the people.
"Master, we are utterly loyal to you."
Xie Yushu said happily
"Lanting, your young master is eager to jump out and come with me, so why are you stopping him?"
"You failed to stop them and now you're being blamed? You might as well have taken the opportunity to steal a few gold peanuts and used them to get married!"
Upon hearing this, Lan Ting and the others indeed wavered! Their actions to stop them halted, and Yi Shuihan angrily shouted...
"Xie Yushu, you have no martial ethics!"
Xie Yushu didn't care what he was yelling about, and simply waved her hand.
"Brothers, move that guy surnamed Yi aside! We're breaking down the door and taking him away!"
"yes!"
Upon receiving the order, Xie Yushu's Divine Eagle Guards and the manor's guards immediately swarmed forward. The group grabbed Yi Shuihan and threw him aside, then rushed into the Han residence.
