He simply and roughly resolved a verbal dispute, but Zhang Shou had no choice but to ignore the various looks and discussions around him. When he finally arrived at the Duke of Zhao's mansion and dismounted under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he saw a rather unfamiliar, sturdy man standing tall outside the Duke of Zhao's mansion. He was not afraid to see the matchmaker, the eldest son of the King of Jiangdu, approach him.
The big man was Yang Xiong, a former general of Zhu Jing, who was acting as the sponsor today. Of course, if he was still a military officer, he might be impeached if he took on such a role in the wedding of the Duke of Zhao's mansion. However, his majestic posture at this moment was just an appearance. In fact, he had to retire from the military after the previous battle due to a serious shoulder injury, and now he has long been an idle person.
Even so, even though the man who was acting as the matchmaker for the man was the eldest son of the King of Jiangdu, who might be one of the candidates for the position of Grand Master of the Imperial Clan in the future, he remained neither humble nor overbearing. After some negotiation, he let the man in and came to Zhang Shou who had dismounted from his horse: "The presiding judge of the wedding, the Earl of Weinan, will come out to greet us in a moment. Please wait a little longer, son-in-law."
Zhang Shou, who had heard Zhu Ying introduce this man before but met him for the first time, couldn't help but smile when he was called "son-in-law". However, he knew very well that if he cared about whether this old general with scars all over his body was tired, Yang Xiong, who had just snatched the position of the sponsor with a tough attitude, might think it was a shame, so he smiled and said, "I don't want to wait any longer on such a good day."
Yang Xiong called him son-in-law, but he was actually not familiar with the new son-in-law of the Duke of Zhao's Mansion. He had only heard of his great reputation. When he saw his face, which was indeed a perfect match for his own eldest daughter Zhu Ying, he admired him in his heart, but he couldn't help but wonder if he looked too thin. He was also a little worried that this son-in-law would have the pretentious problems of those civil servants.
But when he heard Zhang Shou's straightforward statement that he didn't want to wait even a moment, he suddenly felt that this new son-in-law, who looked like a banished immortal from heaven, had become closer to him. He even forgot all the etiquette that he had learned so hard to remember when he took on the role of the sponsor, and said frankly, "That's right, no matter who it is, if they want to marry a peerless beauty like the eldest lady, they definitely don't want to wait even a moment!"
Zhang Chen, who was following behind Zhang Shou, had long forgotten his previous entanglement and stared in amazement as Zhang Shou smiled and chatted happily with the praiser in front of the door. Even Lu Sanlang, who had also experienced the wedding scene before, couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
So willful... Is it really okay
The bride's host who hurried out to welcome Zhang Shou, the new son-in-law, was none other than Zhang Chen's father, Zhang Chuan, Duke of Qin, who had the same title as Duke Zhu Jing of Zhao and a decent personal relationship with him. He had already noticed Zhang Shou chatting and laughing with the sponsor Yang Xiong in the doorway, and although this was completely against etiquette, he just pretended not to see it.
When he coughed loudly, he saw that Yang Xiong had finally woken up as if from a dream, and quickly brought Zhang Shou to him. He couldn't help but stepped forward and bowed with a smile, then welcomed Zhang Shou in.
After going through all the formalities of paying respects, paying respects, and paying respects again, Zhang Shou finally arrived at the main hall. At this moment, Zhu Ying, who was dressed up, appeared in front of him, escorted by several mothers and maids.
