"A hundred years of love and affection bind two hearts together, a thousand miles of fate binds them together. Miss Han and Yue'er are truly a match made in heaven."
Fengying rolled his eyes inwardly.
It's not God's will, it's all because of your nonsense.
Master Han believed it without a doubt and was overjoyed to hear that his daughter's marriage fortune was very good.
"I don't like that customary ceremony, but Yue'er is pushing me to go through with it. Although fortune-telling is my specialty, this is my second time trying to calculate a marriage."
"oh?"
"The first one was for the current emperor's younger sister, Princess Jinglan."
Fengying: So it was you who tricked Princess Jinglan into coming to the Ye family.
"It's really like this. I am very honored!" Master Han bowed. His daughter could be compared with the princess, although at a strange angle.
Situ Wang waved his hand: "Yue'er is my disciple, so this is the way it should be."
"Thank you very much, sir."
"Then, Master Han, when do you think this marriage would be best arranged?"
"My daughter won't be sixteen for another three months, so it would be better to get married after that. Please, sir, find an auspicious date for Master Situ and my daughter's marriage."
"I'm sorry to trouble you. It's understandable." Situ Wang began to count the days until Miss Han's birthday with his fingers again.
"How about May 22nd? It's a good day."
"I'll listen to Mr. Situ." Master Han had no objection. After all, the person in front of him was an "expert".
"Then it's settled." Situ Wang breathed a sigh of relief.
OK, the eldest disciple has been found.
"There's one more thing I'd like to discuss with Master Han," Situ Wang said. "There aren't many people in the Situ family, so we won't be able to gather enough people for the wedding. Sister Yue'er is willing to clear out the new branch for a day to host the wedding banquet for the two of you, open the door to welcome guests, and share the joy."
"Isn't that a bit too noisy?" Master Han frowned, seeming to disagree.
Situ Wang continued, "We are not welcoming all guests. Our families are both scholarly, so we should make friends through literature."
Master Han felt deeply honored to be addressed as "the two masters of literature" by Situ Wang.
Who among the scholars in the world does not want to have this honor?
"Making friends through literature? That's quite novel."
"You and I will set the questions, and anyone who can answer them will be allowed to sit down and watch the banquet. What do you think, Master Han?"
“Excellent!”
Master Han's eyes sparkled with excitement.
Whose daughter's wedding banquet is so extraordinary? Only his Han family's daughter!
Master Han is also quite famous in the Yuncheng literary world. This wedding banquet will certainly make him more famous, and he doesn't have to worry about which literati to invite.
After all, he also knew that Situ Yue didn't have many relatives. If the woman had too many relatives at that time, it would be a slap in the face of Nan Fang.
Now, no invitations are sent to anyone in the literary world, and they have to enter based on their own abilities.
"Then let's make a deal: you and I will each give five questions, and anyone who can answer at least half of them will be admitted. How do you say that?"
"Very good." Master Han knew that Situ Wang had given him enough respect. Otherwise, how could he have the right to put the topic on the same level with Situ Wang?
"I discussed with Yue'er that I will set one question this time, and Yue'er will set the rest. He will set the difficulty level, so Master Han won't be too stressed."
Master Han was very grateful. This was not because Situ Wang was being arrogant. Since Mr. Situ asked a question, there were probably very few people who could answer it.
"Thank you, Mr. Situ."
"Then I'll take my leave today."
After Situ Wang had negotiated the marriage, he politely took his leave. Only after Situ Wang had left did Master Han examine the betrothal gifts he had brought.
