After the date of the prince's official marriage was selected by the Ministry of Rites, Zhu Jianshen was asked to agree, and it was set for the sixth day of the next month, which is less than 20 days away, and the East Palace, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Ceremonies are all busy.

The Zhang family received dowry gifts from the imperial court one after another, and the palace also gave many clothes, meals and supplies according to the court, and sent ceremonial palace maids to teach Zhang Yue court etiquette.

The Jin family stewed all kinds of nourishing tonics for Zhang Yue every day, and from time to time he held Zhang Yue's hand and said all kinds of "ancestors open their eyes!" Immortal apparitions! and so on. was so frightened that Zhang Yue hid when he saw Jin at home.

The two younger brothers also gave up their studies during this period of time and accompanied their parents at home every day to meet guests from all walks of life.

There have been several visiting guests who intend to accept Zhang Heling as a disciple, but Zhang Luan has not said it, so he has not yet made the trip.

Seeing that the wedding day is getting closer and closer, the people in Zhang's house are getting busier and busier. Zhang Yue has gone from the initial concern to now hoping to marry out soon and be quiet.

During this time, due to customs, couples were not allowed to meet before marriage, and Zhang Yue and the prince never met once.

Yuan Mo, this kid, hasn't appeared again since he saw him at the back door once that day.

Li Dongyang came to Zhang's house once on behalf of the Ministry of Rites because of the wedding, and met in a hurry in the living room, Zhang Luan and Jin were there, and Zhang Yue couldn't speak.

Seeing that time flies, and there will be a big wedding in two days, Zhang Zhai received a letter from the Liu family in Li Dongyang's mansion, because Zhang Yue had lived in the Li Mansion for a period of time before, and the Jin family sent the letter to Zhang Yue.

Zhang Yue opened the letter, it turned out that the letter was written by Li Dongyang, and tonight Li Dongyang invited Zhang Yue and Yuan Mo to Li Mansion as the last time they got together before their sister got married.

Zhang Yue is holding back uncomfortably these days, and lied to her mother Jin that Li Dongyang's wife Liu invited her to a banquet. Without thinking about it, Kim let her go.

Zhang Yue was dressed in women's clothes, and arrived at Li Dongyang's house before the time came, and Li Dongyang and his sister-in-law Liu were waiting for her in the pavilion in the back garden.

When Liu saw Zhang Yue, he sighed in his heart, pulled Zhang Yue to sit beside him, and said,

"I really didn't expect that our little five would become the crown princess."

Zhang Yue said a little shyly, "Sister-in-law, this matter is a long story." Don't talk about you, I didn't expect it, it's really forced by the situation, that ......"

Li Dongyang snorted, Zhang Yue immediately stopped speaking, Li Dongyang sighed slightly,

"Xiao Wu, if you marry into the East Palace in the future, you must be cautious, and you must not be as open-mouthed as before."

Zhang Yue stuck out his tongue, Liu looked at the serious senior brother and the naughty junior sister, and said with joy in his heart,

"Xianggong, when you talk to Xiao Wu in the future, you should also pay attention, Xiao Wu will soon be the crown princess, her identity and status are different, and you can't always talk to her in the tone of a senior brother's lesson."

Zhang Yue immediately puffed up his chest, "Senior brother, did you hear it, I will have a higher grade than you in the future, so I don't need to salute or anything, but you should pay attention to the tone of your voice......"

Li Dongyang glared at Zhang Yue and shook his head.

Zhang Yue secretly enjoyed continuing to chat with Liu. Youshi looked at the past, but there was still no trace of Yuan Mo, Zhang Yue couldn't help but ask, "Senior brother, what's the matter with Yuan Mo?" Why don't you come yet? ”

Li Dongyang said, "His heart ....... Well, don't wait for him, ma'am, let the kitchen serve. ”

Liu nodded, and went to the back kitchen to order. Zhang Yue recalled what Yen Mo said to him, and said sullenly, "Yuan Mo, I don't know what happened that day?" Say something inexplicable. I really don't know what he's thinking? ”

Li Dongyang glanced at her meaningfully, "Xiao Wu, Yuan Mo grew up with you, and when you suddenly got married, he inevitably felt a little uncomfortable in his heart." You have to understand. ”

Zhang Yue said, "His reaction was too big, and he said that he would take me away and fly away." I was so scared that I almost didn't bite my tongue. ”

Li Dongyang just smiled faintly, not commenting on it or not. At this time, the Liu family had already commanded the family to serve a table of dishes one after another, Zhang Yue saw that it was all his favorite dishes, Zhang Yue's index finger moved for a while, forgetting all his troubles, "Senior brother, let's eat, Yuan Mo deserves to be blessed today." ”

"Who said I didn't have a good mouth today!" A familiar voice came from the garden, and a smile flashed in Li Dongyang's eyes when he heard the sound, and everyone looked at the source of the sound.

I saw Yuan Mo holding a large jar of wine in his hand, walked in, sat next to Zhang Yue unceremoniously, and said to the family next to him,

"Go, and bring some large bowls, and we will drink this wine today."

Zhang Yue glanced at Yuan Mo with disdain, "It's really time for you to come, the dishes have just been served, and you have arrived." ”

Yuan Mo said casually, "I am also one of the invited guests today, is there anything wrong with coming to the banquet?" ”

Zhang Yue said, "Yes, yes, of course, but I thought some people wouldn't be careful." ”

Yuan Mo ignored Zhang Yue, saw that the family brought a wine bowl, slapped the sealing mud on the wine jar with one palm, and a refreshing rich aroma hit, Zhang Yue's eyes were straight, he reached out and held the wine jar in Yuan Mo's hand, and said suspiciously,

"Is it a seven-step incense?" She sniffed it and shook her head, "No, the fragrance is a little different, and something is added, it seems to be ......"

"Osmanthus!" Yuan Mo took over the conversation, "I know that you like the taste of osmanthus, and last year, I specially asked Yun Dingtian's brewing master to specially brew ten jars of seven-step incense with osmanthus flowers." Originally, I was going to give it to you every year on your birthday. Nowadays, I guess you are not uncommon. ”

Yuan Mo said as he stretched out his hand to take back the wine jar.

Zhang Yue hurriedly blocked Yuan Mo's hand and protected the wine jar in his arms,

"Don't don't, I'm rare, I'm very rare. It's still Senior Brother Yuan. ”

Zhang Yue said and picked up the wine jar and filled it up for Li Dongyang, Yuan Mo, Liu, and himself. When he was about to pour wine for Liu, Liu pushed it away and said with a smile,

"Xiao Wu, you don't have to pour it for your sister-in-law, I won't participate in the dinner of your three brothers and sisters today, I'll go to take care of the children in the back. Let's talk about it, three of you. ”

After speaking, he glanced at Li Dongyang, Zhang Yue was about to stay, but he didn't want Li Dongyang to nod at Liu, Liu led the family out of the pavilion, Zhang Yue looked at the back of his sister-in-law and had to give up.

Li Dongyang picked up the wine bowl, "There are no outsiders here today, Xiao Wu will get married the day after tomorrow, senior brother is very happy for you, this meal is a celebration for you." I'll do it first. ”

Li Dongyang, who has always been gentle, picked up the wine bowl and dried it up. Yuan Mo and Zhang Yue also drank the wine in the bowl.

After Zhang Yue finished drinking, he tasted the aroma of wine and praised, "It's delicious!" Then he said sweetly,

"Thank you, senior brother, for inviting me to dinner, in fact, this marriage has not changed much with me, others don't know, don't you two know yet? We are a fake husband and wife, Your Highness promised me, after marriage, I will still be as free as before, do what I want to do in private, and it will be easy to meet you. ”
