Dong Jiafu was carried all the way into the hall by Cui Qiyan.

The hall was packed with people, some sitting and some standing.

When the two were about to get married, a shrill voice suddenly came from outside, "The emperor's oral order--"

Cui Jun, the eldest lady and others stood up one after another, only to see Wang, the eunuch beside the emperor, coming with his men.

Wang Neiguan smiled and bowed, "Your servant greets Duke Dingguo, Princess, and the Crown Prince. Congratulations on the Crown Prince's wedding."

"Your Excellency Wang is too polite, but does Your Majesty have any instructions?" Cui Jun asked.

"Today is the prince's big day, and His Majesty has specially ordered me to deliver a gift."

Everyone knelt down hurriedly to listen to Wang Neiguan finish delivering the emperor's oral instructions, which were nothing but praising Cui Qiyan and Dong Jiafu and wishing them a happy marriage.

After everyone stood up, Wang Neiguan pointed at the things in the hands of the six people behind him and said, "These are the rewards given by His Majesty to the Crown Prince and his wife."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace." Cui Qiyan and Dong Jiafu thanked in unison.

"When Eunuch Wang comes, have a drink of wedding wine before leaving." Cui Jun ordered people to make arrangements for them.

The emperor's reward gave the wedding an extra layer of gilding.

The ceremony continued, and Cui Qiyan and Dong Jiafu got married under the guidance of the ritual attendant.

"Worship the heavens and the earth-"

"Second worship high hall-"

"Husband and wife pay homage——"

"Send it to the bridal chamber—"

Cui Qiyan sent Dong Jiafu back to the bridal chamber, but before he could say a few more words to her, he was called out for a drink.

"Afu, wait for me, I'll be back soon." Cui Qiyan held Dong Jiafu's hand and spoke to her through the red veil.

Dong Jiafu sat on the bed and nodded.

Afraid that she would be bored, Cui Qi Yan called Bi Tao and others to come and talk to her before leaving.

Bi Tao and the other three came into the room and bowed respectfully, "Your servants greet the Madam, the Crown Prince."

"Get up quickly." Dong Jiafu was not convenient to get up.

The four of them stood up, and Bi Tao said, "The Crown Prince's wife is kind to us because we once knew each other. Now that you are married to the Crown Prince, you are our master, and the etiquette cannot be abolished."

Meng Dong came forward with a plate of lotus cake, "Madam, you must be hungry. Eat something first."

"I'm really hungry." Dong Jiafu smiled and reached out to take a piece of lotus cake and started eating.

"That's great. We can see each other every day again." Meng Dong said happily.

Bi Tao also said: "Yes, the four of us have been looking forward to your wedding with the prince."

After finishing her meal, Dong Jiafu said, "I am also happy to be with you guys."

Outside, Cui Qi Yan was also dragged to drink.

Jiang Ting held up the wine glass and said, "It wasn't easy, but I finally got you to marry Miss Dong. My sister married into the Dong family, so we are relatives. I'm happy tonight, so you should drink a few more glasses."

Cui Qiyan drank the wine in the glass without saying a word.

"Okay, that's refreshing!" Jiang Ting also drank it.

After several rounds of drinking, Shen Zhiming said, "A night of love is worth a thousand gold. Sister-in-law is still waiting. Don't let brother drink too much."

Jiang Ting stood up and said, "Yongxuan is right. Let's drink wine another day. We can't delay the important matter."

Cui Qiyan's heart was no longer here, "Then I won't see you off."

"See how anxious you are, go quickly." Jiang Ting said with a smile.

Cui Qiyan returned to the bridal chamber. All he could see was Dong Jiafu, who was sitting on the bed in her wedding dress. He waved his hand and said to the others in the room, "All of you go down."

"Yes, my lord. I will take my leave."

Bitao and others filed out with smiles on their faces.

Cui Qiyan walked over and lifted the veil on Dong Jiafu's head. The moment he saw her, he couldn't hide his amazement in his eyes, "Afu, you are so beautiful..."

The red was finally gone in her sight, and Dong Jiafu looked up at him.

"Does my outfit please my wife?" Cui Qiyan asked with a smile, spreading his arms.

Dong Jiafu looked at it carefully and nodded, "Very good."

Cui Qiyan chuckled and picked up the wine glass on the table, "Please drink a glass of wedding wine with me, my lady."

Dong Jiafu reached out to take it and took a small sip.

Cui Qi Yan put the wine glass back and looked at Dong Jiafu with burning eyes.

As he approached, Dong Jiafu's heart beat faster. Knowing what to do next, she slowly closed her eyes.

Suddenly there was a noise outside the door. Dong Jiafu opened her eyes suddenly and saw Cui Qi Yan looking outside the door with a frown.

Being disturbed at this time, Cui Qi Yan wanted to hit someone.

He quickly walked to the door and opened it. There were several little heads stuck in front of the door.

Led by Cui Qiyu, along with Cui Qichen and the children of the guests who came to the wedding, six or seven people gathered there furtively.

"Who asked you to come?" Cui Qi Yan asked with a dark face.

Cui Qiyu said with a smile: "Brother, we want to see our new sister-in-law."

"Say hello to your sister-in-law tomorrow. Now get out of here immediately and don't come to Chenglin Pavilion!"

"But……"

"Fifth brother, let's go quickly and don't disturb eldest brother and sister-in-law's rest." Seeing that Cui Qiyan looked unhappy, Cui Qichen hurriedly pulled Cui Qiyu away.

Cui Qi Yan closed the door only after the group of half-grown children ran away.

Dong Jiafu also stood up from the bed and walked over here, "Is it Qi Yu and the others?"

"Don't worry about them. I sent them away. We have business to attend to."

Cui Qiyan picked her up and carried her sideways, walking towards the bed...

Dong Jiafu was awakened by a light kiss on her forehead. When she opened her eyes, she was held in Cui Qiyan's arms. This man had been tormenting her for half the night. If she hadn't begged for mercy, who knows how long it would have ended.

"Awake?" Cui Qiyan's voice had the slight hoarseness that was unique to the early morning.

Dong Jiafu glanced at the light coming in from the bed curtains and quickly got up from his arms. "It's already dawn. We should go and greet the gods. Why didn't you wake me up?"

Cui Qiyan sat up lazily, "There's still time, no need to rush."

Dong Jiafu didn't listen to him. She couldn't keep the whole family waiting on the first day of her wedding. She wanted to get up and get out of bed, but her legs went weak and she sat back down.

"What's wrong?" Cui Qi Yan quickly hugged her and asked nervously.

Dong Jiafu glared at him with a red face, "It's all because of you..."

Cui Qi Yan reacted, laughed out loud, stretched out his long legs and got off the bed, then bent down and picked her up.

"It's all my fault. I'll apologize to my lady and will personally dress you today."

It was the first time that Dong Jiafu formally met her elders, so she didn't dare to use him and called Xia Zhi to help her.

The two of them packed up and went to the hall together.

When she arrived at the hall and saw everyone there, Dong Jiafu felt even more embarrassed.

Cui Qi Yan, however, didn't care and took her in refreshed.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, elders."

The eldest lady looked at the two of them with a smile, "It's okay, you are all tired after yesterday's ceremony, it's time to have a good rest."

Then Dong Jiafu served tea to the elders one by one.

The first one was to the old lady, "Grandma, please have some tea."

The old lady took it and took a sip, then took out the jade bracelet that had been prepared long ago, took her hand and put it on her.

"We are a family from now on. If there was any unhappiness in the past, forget it. Live a good life with Qi Yan and have children for our Cui family as soon as possible."

"Yes, grandma." Dong Jiafu replied.

The second wife looked sharp and asked, "The bracelet that mother gave to Dong is the one you care about most in your dowry?"

"This was given to me by my grandmother when I got married. Now that Qi Yan has married, this bracelet will be passed down to the eldest grandson of our Cui family."

Dong Jiafu then realized the meaning of the bracelet on her wrist and said quickly, "Grandma, this thing is too valuable..."

"This is for you, keep it safe." The old lady patted her hands.

"Thank you, grandma." Dong Jiafu no longer refused.
