Chapter Ninety-Eight: Princess Wuyang's Marriage

Princess Wuyang stopped Gu Junyan in the palace and was refused, and then Li Sheng quickly knew all about the rescue, after all, it happened in the palace, and it was unlikely that he would be able to hide it from his ears and eyes.

After Li Sheng found out, he was naturally furious, on the one hand, he was angry that Princess Wuyang didn't know how to respect herself, so she actually surrendered her identity and went to find Gu Junyan; on the other hand, it was because Gu Junyan actually didn't give the princess face so much, he simply didn't look at the royal family in his eyes; There is also a small part of the obscure thoughts, the more loyal Gu Junyan is to Su Yunlai, the more evil fire he has in his heart, which proves that Su Yunlai is not wrong.

In the dead of night, he occasionally thought that if one day, Gu Junyan didn't like Su Yun coming, he hurt her deeply, and when that time came, maybe it would be his chance, he would definitely stand up for Su Yun to make the decision, comfort her heartbroken, and even accept her who was already married, and tell her who was the man who loved her the most and could protect her the most.

But Gu Junyan has never given him this kind of opportunity, at the banquet, the eyebrows of the young couple are affectionate, it is a strong affection that can be seen at a glance, he looked at that scene, and once again stabbed his heart.

Li Sheng's mood is very conflicted, so he doesn't want Princess Wuyang to continue to indulge in it, so from this point on, Li Sheng really loves Princess Wuyang.

But the younger sister who drilled the horns of the bull was really a headache, and Li Sheng couldn't think of any way to make Princess Wuyang die for a while.

In the end, Yun Wanting saw Li Sheng's thoughts, and gently persuaded: "Your Majesty, why don't you find a happy family affair for the princess?" The concubine thinks that the princess has grown up in the border since she was a child, and only the young general is the most outstanding man she has seen, so it is inevitable that she will secretly agree, but now there are many young talents in the capital, so that the princess can see more of it, maybe she will see a good one? ”

Yun Huanting also came up with an idea out of desperation, not to mention the capital, even in the whole world, who can compare to Gu Junyan's excellence?

But Yun Huanting was helpless, on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Li Sheng was obviously a little displeased, and she couldn't wait to do something for him to ease the somewhat cold relationship between the two.

Yun Huanting continued: "In addition, the princess has already reached the marriageable age, so she can't be so wasted by the young general. ”

Li Sheng nodded when he heard this, and glanced at her approvingly: "What the queen said makes sense, this matter will be done!" You go to inquire about the candidates first, you don't necessarily have to be noble, you can also be a courtier, the most important thing is to have a good character, you can be single-minded to Wuyang, and there are no messy things in the backyard. ”

Li Sheng understands Princess Wuyang's character, and she can't stand those backyard fights.

Li Sheng is also a good brother, and he did not take advantage of Princess Wuyang's marriage, but put her happiness first.

Yun Huanting was very happy that Li Sheng could hand over this matter to her to choose, although it was thankless, but this showed that Li Sheng trusted her, and she didn't think that she could do it well, as long as she did it well, it would definitely make Li Sheng look at her even more impressively.

The emperor's decision to choose a horse for Princess Wuyang soon spread, and the entire circle of nobles was boiling, this is His Majesty's only sister! And she is also the sister of the same father and mother, and if she marries her, the prosperity and wealth of the family in the future are guaranteed.

Therefore, some of the noble families who thought they had a deep heritage began to move, and when they learned that this matter was decided by the queen's mother, Qiwu Palace and her mother's house were crowded for a while, so it was not lively.

Yun Huanting is also a little sincere to Princess Wuyang, and she is not very satisfied with the selection, she can't even get into her eyes, and Li Sheng can't look down on her.

This time, Yun Huanting couldn't wait to pick out all the school-age men in the entire capital, but how could it be so easy, the first thing she looked at was the equivalent status, but many of these people were already concubines, and more than half of them were eliminated at once; Then there are those who climb the dragon and attach the phoenix to the mind, the purpose is not pure, and there are almost few people now.

In the end, she picked and chosen, but there was no suitable candidate, Yun Huanting was worried, and then she found a person, this person was Xu Guanyi.

This matter was reminded to her by her eldest palace maid, Jingfen: "The slave maid heard that Lord Xu and the princess had been drinking all night, so they must have some friendship." ”

Yun Huanting's heart moved, she was able to drink with Princess Wuyang all night, this is more than a bit of friendship, so many young talents, Princess Wuyang is unpretentious to anyone, and she can actually drink with Xu Guanyi, this is simply the first one! And the emperor still admires him very much, this is really too good to be a good candidate.

Yun Huanting was also worried that she had chosen a candidate, but she was mercilessly rejected by Princess Wuyang, and her face was dull at that time, this Xu Guanyi was not only from a poor background, but he was talented in appearance, and he was excellent, so he was a good candidate.

"And Lord Xu is an only son, the princess married in the past, and there is no conflict between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, let alone intrigue with her concubine, of course, although the princess's identity is noble, no one dares to give her grievances, but marrying a wife is always different." Yun Wanting said softly to Li Sheng.

Li Sheng admired Xu Guanyi very much, and he was a little satisfied: "Guanyi, it's not bad, this person is smart, but humble; Bold but cautious; Smart but not arrogant, at his age, it is really not easy to have such a mind and vision. ”

Yun Huanting smiled and nodded: "It seems that Your Majesty admires Lord Xu very much, and the concubine also thinks that this is a good marriage, except that Lord Xu's background is a little lower......"

"Hey! This doesn't matter, don't bully the young man to be poor, what's more, we don't need our husband's family to be prominent to improve our status. Li Sheng said indifferently.

Who can have the dignity of a royal princess.

Yun Huanting pursed her lips and smiled, "It seems that Your Majesty is willing!" After a pause, she hesitated: "It's just the princess's side......"

"If you don't marry this time, you have to marry, and you can't allow her to mess around!" Li Sheng said categorically, "But if I decree marriage, it will seem that Wuyang has fallen into place, and if Xu Guanyi personally asks for marriage, this can save Wuyang's face." ”

The marriage of the two families, it can't be that the woman is too active, not to mention the royal face.

"This matter is easy to do, wait for the concubine to arrange it......" Before Yun Huanting's words fell, Xiao Dezi, the chief manager of the inner house, walked in.

"Your Majesty, Niangniang, Lord Xu asks to see."

Now Xu Guanyi is the only one in front of Li Sheng, and Lord Xu only represents one person.

Li Sheng smiled and said, "He can't help but say, this is coming, let him in." ”

Now Li Sheng looks at Xu Guanyi and has a feeling of looking at his brother-in-law.

As soon as Xu Guan walked in, he fell to his knees, Li Sheng has always been tolerant of Xu Guanyi and Su Zhan, and he has long been exempted from their big gifts, he is so solemn, Li Sheng is a little strange.

"Guanyi, what are you doing? What happened? Li Sheng asked cautiously.

Xu Guanyi arched his hand and said: "Back to Your Majesty, it is not a major event in the court, this time, the minister is here to propose," paused, he looked at Yun Huanting, "I heard that the queen is choosing a horse for the princess, and the minister is not talented, so she came to recommend herself." ”

After speaking, he smiled at Yun Huanting, who was a little shy and flattering.

This is really an unexpected joy, Li Sheng couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, and glanced at Yun Huanting, naturally it is difficult to say, he has long been the colt in their phase.

Li Sheng coughed lightly, with a serious face: "Bold, what is your identity, how can you ask to marry a princess?" ”

Xu Guanyi didn't panic at all, and was still frank: "The minister knows that he is from a slightly cold background, and he is not worthy of the princess's golden branches and jade leaves, however, the minister also wants to fight bravely for his own happiness, but he is not able to do it, and he does not want to regret it in the future." After a pause, he calmly met Li Sheng's eyes: "The minister is not rich, nor is he from a noble background, but the minister dares to promise that he will do his best to give the princess happiness, cherish it, and never lose it!" ”

Li Sheng's heart was shocked, for his own happiness, even if he asked to marry a princess, he had the courage to fight for it, if he didn't have so many worries about Su Yunlai at the beginning, if he could be braver, wouldn't many things be different?

Xu Guanyi smiled a little shyly and embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the minister will not let you add money just because he wants to raise a princess." ”

Li Sheng couldn't help but glare at him with a smile, what a mess this is.

Li Sheng was already very satisfied in his heart, but he didn't agree: "I have to think about this matter, you go back first." ”

Xu Guanyi also knew that it was impossible to succeed once, kowtowed, and showed his determination again, so he retreated.

As soon as Xu Guan left, Li Sheng showed a satisfied smile on his face, he had already agreed to the marriage, but he still wanted to be angry with Princess Wuyang.

In fact, when he went to tell Princess Wuyang about this, Li Sheng had already made up his mind, no matter whether Princess Wuyang agreed or not, he would let her marry.

Princess Wuyang was not surprised that he would come to her, after listening to him talk about Xu Guanyi, Princess Wuyang was stunned, and couldn't help but think of that handsome and gentle smile, as well as the clumsy heroism when drinking, if it was to marry him, it would not be a very annoying thing.

"Wuyang, you are my only sister, I want you to be happy, and I naturally want to find you a perfect husband......"

"I agreed." Princess Wuyang said quickly, which surprised Li Sheng, so she continued: "If you have to marry sooner or later, then just him." ”

The tone was light, there was no joy of getting married, and there was no shyness that a bride should have, but Li Sheng was already very satisfied.

Li Sheng soon ordered the marriage of Xu Guanyi and Princess Wuyang, and the toss was boiling, Princess Wuyang's choice of a concubine was finally settled, and the nobles in the capital were very disappointed, but there was no way, who let Xu Guanyi have the emperor as a backer.

Su Zhan was shocked when he heard the news, and chose a day to rest and went to Xu's Mansion on a special trip.

"Guanyi, there are no outsiders here, you tell me the truth, do you really want to marry Princess Wuyang voluntarily?" Su Zhan asked with a serious face.

Xu Guan smiled: "What are you talking about?" The decree has been made, how can this be faked? ”

"I didn't say this, I was asking you if you would like to, do you really want to be this colt?" Su Zhan looked at him with a little scrutiny.

Xu Guanyi chuckled in his heart, could it be that Su Zhan saw something? But he never told Su Zhan about his intentions for Su Yunlai, he shouldn't know, right?

"I'm naturally willing, Your Majesty treats us kindly, is it possible that we can still be forced to marry?" Xu Guanyi said with a smile.

Su Zhan glanced at him with a vague look in his eyes, he would ask this, in fact, because he found one thing, it turned out that in order to save Su Zhimin, Mrs. Su even wanted to marry Su Yunfei to him for wooing, Xu Guanyi did not refuse this proposal, but the object of marriage was changed to Su Yunlai, which was a request made by Xu Guanyi himself.

He would know that this matter was an accident, and now that he was the true speaker of the Su family, he naturally knew that he had much more information than before.

He didn't expect Xu Guanyi to actually like Ah Wan! He never mentioned it! Then came the news of the marriage.

Su Zhan looked at Xu Guanyi's gentle smile, without the slightest reluctance, and was a little suspicious in his heart, could it be that Xu Guanyi also wanted the respected identity of the horse?

Su Zhan was entangled in his heart, so entangled that Gu Junyan couldn't stand it.

"No, I said that you go to court one day, and look at Xu Guan every day and stop talking, what do you mean?"

On this day, Gu Junyan blocked Su Zhan and couldn't bear to ask.

Gu Junyan inevitably thought too much, the relationship between these two people has always been good, don't give birth to something else, if Ah Wan's brother breaks his sleeve, or has some bad habits, Ah Wan has to worry about it again.

Su Zhan could finally spit it out: "I'm just thinking about the marriage between Guanyi and the princess, does he really like the princess?" Will they really be happy when they get married? ”

Gu Junyan raised his eyebrows: "When Ah Wan got married, you weren't so entangled, right?" Who the hell are you brother? ”

"How can that be the same? I know that the young general has true feelings for Ah Wan, and Ah Wan is also in love with you, you are happy with each other, but he ...... crown" Su Zhan hesitated.

His married life was happy, and he became more and more disgusted with those blind marriages and dumb marriages.

Gu Junyan bowed his head very satisfied, and said meaningfully: "Sometimes, for men, if they can't marry the woman they want to marry, then it's the same for whoever they marry." ”

Su Zhan was stunned, glanced at him suspiciously, Gu Junyan patted him on the shoulder, turned around and left.

Gu Junyan returned to the General's Mansion, and Su Yunlai was also worried about Xu Guanyi's marriage, she was worried that she didn't know what gift they should give when they got married.

It is said that the number of rituals is fixed, and most of them will not be too bad, but this time it is different, Xu Guanyi's relationship with their family is extraordinary, and the Gu family is still the grandfather's family of Princess Wuyang.

However, when Su Yunlai saw Gu Junyan coming back, he put down what he was doing and ordered someone to arrange dinner.

Nothing is as important as your own husband.

Gu Junyan watched her busy for herself, and liked the feeling of her being busy around her, so she couldn't help but gently hold her hand.

Su Yunlai glanced at him with disgust: "What are you doing, there are still maids." ”

The maids in the room pursed their lips and smiled, and they all retreated in unison, Gu Junyan made a skill, and Su Yunlai sat on him.

"There's no one anymore." Gu Junyan said confidently.

Su Yunlai looked helpless, but she also enjoyed the time when the husband and wife were quietly alone, she leaned on his chest, listening to his powerful heartbeat, and never felt that time could be so quiet and beautiful.

"Just now, you were busy with the princess's wedding gift?"

Su Yunlai nodded, and said with some annoyance: "Yes, I don't know what to send, I'm afraid that it's not enough to be light, and I'm afraid of being criticized if it's heavy, after all, it's the princess's wedding, and now the whole capital is envious of Lord Xu." ”

Gu Junyan stopped talking, Gu Junyan was a little different today, even if it was just a very slight change in mood, but Su Yunlai still noticed it.

"What's wrong with you today?" Su Yunlai asked softly.

Gu Junyan raised his eyebrows and asked in a low voice, "How did you see that something was wrong with me today?" ”

Su Yunlai held his hand: "You are my husband, how can I not see your changes?" ”

A smile flashed in Gu Junyan's eyes, and he hugged her and kissed her on the cheek, letting out a happy laugh: "Ah Wan, with you, I have nothing else to ask for in my life." ”

Su Yunlai was stunned for a moment, this person was indeed a little strange today, but she still smiled and said, "With you, I have nothing to ask for in my life." ”

This wedding, which was the envy of everyone in the capital, was nothing to Gu Junyan, he thought, all he wanted was the woman he wanted to marry, this was a single choice, and he would never compromise.

Princess Wuyang and Xu Guanyi's marriage is scheduled for March of the following year, and during this time, the Ministry of Rites is in full swing to prepare for the wedding.

And Su Yunlai also spent the first year of marriage in the Gu family.

In previous years, Gu Yanshan and Gu Junyan were too lazy to worry about people, even if it was the New Year, it was a cold feeling, but this year, with Su Yun coming to Zhang Luo, the general's mansion was full of lights, and it was finally a lively year.

After eating the reunion dinner, Gu Yanshan sent the little two back.

Gu Junyan took Su Yunlai's hand, returned to the room, and took out a box, Su Yunlai took it with a smile, opened it and saw that it was a wooden statue, the girl was slim and elegant, her eyebrows were picturesque, especially the expression on her face was portrayed extremely realistic and vivid, it was Su Yunlai himself.

"I'll give you one every year in the future," Gu Junyan said: "So that when we are old, I can still show our sons and grandsons, you see, how beautiful your mother and grandmother used to be." ”

Su Yunlai couldn't put down touching the statuette, listening to his words, his eyes flashed with a little brilliance, women are afraid of getting old, afraid of becoming ugly, afraid of wrinkles, afraid of being clear, but now Su Yunlai is looking forward to it, if he can grow old with him, it must be a very happy thing.

"But I won't do this," Su Yunlai said with some grievances: "You can carve one more of yourself and give it to me?" ”

He lowered his head, his dark eyes met hers, and he murmured with a fiery breath, "But I'm already yours......" His voice disappeared into a tender kiss, and he took her lips in his mouth, and even though he had done it countless times, he could still feel the initial throbbing.

……

As Li Sheng's only sister, Princess Wuyang's wedding was grand and luxurious, even after many years, people in the capital still remember the shock of that long wedding.

Many people added makeup to Princess Wuyang, and Su Yunlai also entered the palace to visit Princess Wuyang, who was just a close friend in the past, but now they are full of embarrassment when they meet again, and they have nothing to say except greetings.

Gu Junyan didn't tell Su Yunlai about the Mid-Autumn Festival, but Su Yunlai knew Princess Wuyang's intentions, her identity was embarrassing, and everything she said was like showing off.

In the end, she only said: "May the princess be happy and happy, and she can get her wish for the rest of her life." ”

Princess Wuyang looked at Su Yunlai and hooked the corners of her lips: "Thank you...... Cousin-in-law. ”

The two of them were polite in life, and Su Yunlai also felt uncomfortable, so he quickly left the palace, and then it was the day of the wedding.

Princess Wuyang wore a delicate and luxurious wedding dress, sat in a sedan chair, her mood was very calm, even if she had been extremely looking forward to this day, she knew that as a princess, her wedding must be grand and grand, not to mention the whole country to celebrate, but also to congratulate from all directions, she will take everyone's blessings and marry the man she loves.

Now all this has been realized, except for the bridegroom.

I closed my eyes, and my heart was calm for a while, and no matter how deep the pain was, the pain would fade after a long time.

Princess Wuyang got off the sedan chair with the support of the bride, and a pair of warm hands held her, and her heart was suddenly warm, this person was chosen by her, and this marriage may not be bad.

The two saluted and were not sent into the cave room, and Princess Wuyang suddenly became a little nervous.

The hijab was lifted, revealing Xu Guanyi's warm face, the candlelight was bright and gentle, and she couldn't see the emotion in his eyes clearly.

Until everyone retreated, and only the two of them remained, Xu Guanyi poured her a glass of water, and Princess Wuyang felt his thoughtfulness and her heart warmed.

"You, but you want to marry me voluntarily?" Princess Wuyang asked in a low voice: "I know, the identity of the princess is crowded, and I naturally understand ......."

"Princess," Xu Guanyi interrupted her gently but firmly: "Before courting the emperor, I once said that I will respect and cherish the princess, and I will live up to it in my life. ”

Princess Wuyang looked at his sincere eyes, and under the candlelight, the handsome and gentle man was sincere and gentle, looking at her intently, making her heart move involuntarily and slowly holding his hand.

It wasn't until many, many years later that Princess Wuyang would still remember Xu Guanyi's eyes at this time, and at that time she suddenly remembered that he said that he cherished and respected, and promised to be good to her, but he didn't say that he would love her.

But now, she feels that the word love is too heavy, and everything is good enough now, so she doesn't care, until later, she understands that that is the most important thing in marriage.

The red tent was slowly lowered, and Princess Wuyang grabbed his arm and closed her eyes so nervously that she didn't see the deep obscurity at Xu Guan's eye.

Princess Wuyang returned to the door on the third day of marriage, but Li Sheng did not pay attention to her sister who had just married, because something happened and Yun Huanting was pregnant.
