Fan Xian didn't remember exactly what he said. He only remembered that he drank a lot and was persuaded by many well-intentioned or greedy officials to write two poems to describe the good times and beautiful people at this moment. But no matter how much Fan Xian drank, he kept in mind his declaration of quitting the poetry world, and pushed them away with a smile.
During the banquet, people from Prince Jing's residence finally arrived, and all the officials of the courtyard stood up to greet them. Looking at the prince who looked like a flower farmer, Fan Xian smiled wryly, thinking to himself why he didn't recognize him the first time he saw him
Prince Jing had always liked Fan Xian very much. Seeing how gaudy he was dressed up today, he said in a muffled voice, "Someone who doesn't know how to dress up."
Fan Xian knew his temperament, and said with a smile, "I don't know what the prince looked like when he got married."
The eldest son Li Hongcheng said in a low voice, "It's probably not as good as you."
King Jing became furious, and scolded: "When I got married, I didn't have you, you know what the hell."
Seeing the quarrel between the prince and the prince, the officials nearby hid aside and laughed. It's just that Sinan Bo Fan Jian, who is the master, shook his head and persuaded with a wry smile: "My lord, what you said is really superfluous." Also casual.
Prince Jing waved his hand, ignored these petty things, and followed Fan Jian straight into the inner hall. Halfway through, he stopped again, turned around and said to Fan Xian sternly, "You're not bad."
Fan Xian was taken aback, and hurriedly saluted and thanked him. Prince Jing frowned again and said, "I originally thought that after two years, I would give you Rou Jia, but I didn't expect that my sister would rob me of her son-in-law." He seemed to be deeply regretful, shook his head and walked in.
Who is Prince Jing's sister? Naturally, it was Fan Xian's current mother-in-law, the eldest princess. Fortunately, the voice of these words was low, so they were not heard by everyone. But when Fan Xian heard that the prince was going to promise Princess Roujia to him, he couldn't help being frightened, thinking that if he wanted to marry Roujia, it would be a terrible thing. Suddenly, he thought that his mother-in-law looked much younger than the prince, so he couldn't help feeling a little puzzled.
While he was distracted, Li Hongcheng patted him on the shoulder and said softly: "Based on our friendship, I should have come earlier, but you also know that it is inconvenient for me to come too early on this occasion."
Fan Xian understood that although the other party had a good friendship with him, he was Prince Jing's son after all, and there was absolutely no reason to rush to help the minister's son. That would be too unruly. He smiled slightly and was about to say something when he heard Li Hongcheng say softly: "Joujia didn't come today. Let me tell you."
Fan Xian raised his eyebrows, thinking that Roujia had always been on good terms with Ruoruo, and had a good relationship with him, so why didn't she come when he got married
Seeing his expression, Li Hongcheng smiled wryly and said: "My sister is wiping tears in the palace now. What my father said earlier is true. If it weren't for you, this fiancée has a lot of background. Maybe my father will really invite the Queen Mother to come forward and let the queen mother come forward. You marry Roujia instead."
Fan Xian was taken aback for a moment, and then felt bitter again. He realized that he really didn't know what to say today, so it's better to keep his mouth shut.

Finally it was time to worship heaven and earth, Fan Xian and Lin Wan'er held the two ends of the red silk, looked at each other affectionately through a piece of red cloth, bowed down softly, Fan Ruoruo who was on the side was moved by that sourness Tears welled up, making Fan Sizhe next to her feel like going crazy.
When worshiping his parents, Uncle Sinan Fan Jian sat lightly brushing his beard, while Mrs. Liu awkwardly sat on the matron's seat. The officials and dignitaries who watched the ceremony were very puzzled, wondering when the Liu family was righted
They didn't know that this was the result of Fan Xian's secret plan for a month. Fan Xian is not a person who repays grievances with virtue, but he is not a person who remembers hatred rotely. Although her vigilance towards Liu's family cannot be eliminated, it can be seen that she is really sincere towards her father. If Liu's family is righted, it can appease Liu's family At the same time, it can make her feel more at ease.
Of course, if the Liu family did anything unfavorable to him, Fan Xian would now have enough ability to protect himself and hurt the enemy. He just didn't want to do this - after all, according to his guess, Mrs. Liu is actually just a hard-working person, not to mention that there is now Fan Sizhe between the two. Si Nan Bo Fan Jian didn't nod his head all the time, but last night, the palace finally came with a letter of approval and the Queen Mother made a statement, so he had no choice but to acquiesce to this fact.
After ten years of suffering, Mrs. Liu finally sat on the right seat. She touched the smooth armrest of the chair a little unaccustomed, took the tea handed over by the bride with some unease, took a sip without knowing the taste, and then looked to the side Fan Xian's eyes became a little uneasy.
Fan Xian didn't look at her, but smiled slightly, offering tea to his father.
A smile appeared on the corner of Liu's lips with great difficulty.
The officials in the field looked a little confused because they didn't know the inside story. And the officials of Liu's natal family in the side hall couldn't help feeling a little bit embarrassed when they saw this scene.
At this moment, there was a commotion outside the mansion. Fan Xian stood up, Xi Po also helped Wan'er up, and the whole family looked out together.
"There is an order, Fan will accept it."
The Hou Gonggong who was familiar with the Fan family in the palace opened the door with a smile on his face, and announced the palace's will. Originally, it was a big day today, both Fan Jian and Fan Xian had guessed that there would be arrangements in the palace, so it was not surprising.
However, the officials of the six ministries in the courtyard were a little surprised. The rewards in the decree of Eunuch Hou were really a bit out of order. The amount of gold and silk far exceeded the standard, and some tribute items were also included in the list. The rewards that a minister's son deserves for getting married are like marrying a princess or a prince.
Even if the prime minister married Sinan Bo, the royal family should not attach so much importance to it.
While listening to the order, Fan Xian whispered to his wife under the red hijab next to him, "Do you understand? I am in your favor, sir."
Under the red cloth, Lin Wan'er was very shy.
…
…
After Eunuch Hou retreated, all the officials breathed a sigh of relief, but they heard the loud shout from outside: "Fan Lin is married, a perfect match, and concubine Shu will reward you."
Fan Xian was startled, and saluted again with Wan'er, and what Concubine Shu was rewarding was the original set of rare books. Concubine Shu is the mother concubine of the second prince, unexpectedly she has an old relationship with Fan Zhai, all the officials couldn't help but be amazed.
Unexpectedly, after a while, they heard shouting outside again: "Fan Lin is married, the couple is born, and Ning Cairen congratulates together." The eldest prince, who has been leading the army outside, is highly regarded by His Majesty.
Ning Cairen's gift was a sword, which was in line with her personality from Dongyi. Fan Xian and the young couple had no choice but to salute again, took the sword with a wry smile, and Fan Xian whispered to his wife: "See? It's the ladies' turn to reward you. Ning Cairen, this sword is for you. If there is anything wrong Shun, you can kill me with your sword."
Lin Wan'er was shy again, but she couldn't take a bite of this goddamn gentleman under the watchful eyes of everyone.
Since Concubine Shu and Ning Cairen both sent presents, the other ladies naturally also wanted to send gifts, but those few partners who were not well-known sent them over. Only Concubine Ning Gui was originally from the Liu family, so she was very different, and she got the news last night that the Liu family was finally righted, so she was overjoyed and acted ruthlessly, and the gift list alone was two feet thick. The officials in the courtyard were shocked.
After all the empresses, it is the queen's reward. The queen is the mother of a country, so this reward is naturally unusual. It is a crystal clear jade ruyi, which is very precious and indescribable.
Today, the ministers finally opened their eyes. Since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, there is no marriage of a minister's child that can alarm so many nobles in the palace!
Of course, the senior officials who knew Lin Waner's real identity naturally knew the inside story. Lin Waner was not only the illegitimate daughter of the eldest princess, but most importantly, she had always been favored by the emperor and the queen mother. She grew up in the palace. His affection is unusual.
Gradually, the tables in the courtyard became quiet, and the officials of the six ministries finally understood what was going on. At this time, their expressions became more restrained and solemn, and the eyes they looked at the bride became a little strange.
Finally, the heaviest bomb rang. The royal letter written by His Majesty was carried into the Fan residence by the eunuchs like a treasure. A large number of people in the courtyard knelt down.
"By God's blessing, the emperor said, Fan Lin's marriage will be a perfect time, and a handwritten letter is written as a memorial."
Fan Jian and Fan Xian took it carefully, unfolded it to show everyone, only to see four large characters written on the white paper: "Hundred Years of Love".
It has a very simple meaning, but His Majesty the Emperor, who has never liked to participate in the family affairs of his courtiers, wrote it himself. The hidden meaning is not simple. Everyone in the courtyard speculated that Fan Xian married Lin Wan'er, probably as lucky as picking a big ingot.
※※※
In a room in the deep palace, His Majesty the Emperor of the Qing Kingdom was smiling at a painting, which was a meticulously drawn woman in a yellow shirt.
The emperor married Wan'er, whom he admired the most, to Fan Xian, thinking that the woman in the painting would also like this daughter-in-law. Today, Fan Lin's marriage can have such a big ostentation, others think it's because His Majesty loves Wan'er, even the ladies in the palace didn't think of going anywhere else. But the Ninth Five Lord knew that he just wanted to make up for Fan Xian's regret that he couldn't get married as a prince.
The emperor looked at the woman in the painting, and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "You used to like this lively scene very much, I hope he likes it too."
