Kick out the general as soon as you are reborn

Duke Liu walked into the room holding two imperial edicts, sat on the bed and said with sobs, "Nannan, his majesty has appointed you as a princess, with a fief of 5000. He has also issued an imperial decree to grant you a marriage, and you will marry the Regent Zhou Yanze as his legal wife. From now on, you will be the Regent's Consort. Are you happy?" After saying that, he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Liu Yanyan murmured in her heart, "Daddy, what should I do? The imperial decree has been issued. If my daughter wakes up, can she still disobey it?" She wanted to cry in despair, but she couldn't. Why are they getting married? She is not familiar with the Regent.

Duke Liu said, "The regent is also good, he is in a high position and has great power, and you will be the princess in the future."

Liu Yanyan resisted and muttered in her heart, "Daddy, Nannan doesn't want to get married and doesn't want to be a princess."

Duke Liu didn't hear it, and said to Yuzhu beside him, "You take good care of Miss, I'll go outside to keep an eye on her. The wedding is definitely coming, and you can't let Nannan down. Nannan loves to be beautiful, so remember to dress her up nicely tomorrow."

Yuzhu said, "Okay, Master, I will take good care of the young lady, don't worry."

Duke Liu walked out of the house and came to the gate of the Duke's Mansion. He saw the housekeeper Zhou from the Regent's Mansion coming over with a list of betrothal gifts. "Greetings to the Duke, congratulations to the Duke."

Duke Liu smiled bitterly and said, "You're welcome. We'll be a family from now on. Why are you rushing here?" Could it be that the Regent doesn't want to get married?

Steward Zhou smiled flatteringly and said, "Our prince asked me to deliver this betrothal gift. We cannot neglect the princess. The prince is now personally preparing for the wedding banquet tomorrow in the palace." As he said that, he handed the betrothal gift list to Duke Liu with both hands.

Duke Liu took the list of betrothal gifts, glanced at it and said, "No need for that. It's too polite. The betrothal gifts are too much." Although the Regent looked cold, he did not treat Yanyan badly.

Housekeeper Zhou smiled brightly, holding another list at the gate of the Duke's Mansion, and read out "3 small courtyards in the capital, 20 shops, 5 villas in the suburbs of Beijing..."

When the servants in the Prince Regent's Palace heard what was said, they began to carry the body into the palace.

Butler Zhou's mouth was dry from reading. He took Butler Liu's tea and drank it before he started to read again, "10 sets of pure gold head ornaments, 10 sets of pearl head ornaments, 10 sets of ruby ​​head ornaments, etc."

Duke Liu looked at the piles of betrothal gifts and became even more satisfied with the Regent. The Regent's Mansion was indeed wealthy and generous, and was not stingy with his daughter.

A total of 88 betrothal gifts were carried into the Duke's Mansion, filling up the front yard and all the way to the entrance of the Mansion.

The people outside were amazed. "Didn't they say that the Regent was forced to marry the princess? Giving 88 a betrothal gift doesn't seem like he was forced."

"What princess? Isn't it the county princess?"

"The Emperor has already bestowed upon Lady Liu the title of Princess."

"That was too late for me to know."

"The Prince Regent and the Princess must be in love with each other, otherwise how could he be willing to marry the Princess when she was unconscious?"

"Your Majesty has granted the marriage, and even if you don't like the Regent, you can't neglect it."

"I think the Prince Regent just likes the princess, otherwise he could have simply refused the marriage."

"No, it's not..."

Duke Liu ignored these voices. After sending Steward Zhou away, he said to Steward Liu behind him, "Standard Liu, please count these betrothal gifts and add them to Nannan's dowry tomorrow."

Housekeeper Liu nodded and said, "Master, isn't it too much? This adds up to 188 pieces of dowry, which exceeds the standard for a princess."

Duke Liu rubbed his forehead and said, "Fill it up and stack it up. Don't lift more than 160 pieces. Yanyan is a princess after all. It won't look good if her dowry is too small." After saying that, he returned to the room, drank a bowl of porridge, fell on the bed, and fell asleep in a daze.

When I woke up, it was already the next afternoon. "Butler Liu, why didn't you call me? It's so late, and there are still so many things to do. What should I do?"

Butler Liu stopped the master and said, "Master, you have been too tired recently, so I didn't wake you up. Go wash up, the bride-receiving team from the Regent's Palace will be here soon."

Duke Liu then remembered, patted his forehead in annoyance, went into the house to change into a maroon suit, put on official boots, carefully groomed his hair, and shaved his beard. "Butler Liu, see if this works. We can't embarrass our daughter."

Butler Liu looked at the haggard master and said, "Master, you are very handsome."

"That's good, that's good"

At this time, festive knocking sounds and cheers from the people were heard outside the palace.

Duke Liu then looked up at the sunset in the sky and said, "It's evening now. It's time. Is the young lady dressed up? She needs to look beautiful for her wedding."

Butler Liu said, "Miss is dressed up, don't worry, everything has been arranged."

In the House of Cuizhuxuan

Liu Yanyan was wearing an elaborate red wedding gown, a ruby ​​headpiece, festive makeup, and a red peony veil. She was supported by Yuzhu and Yuzhen as she sat on the bed, muttering to herself, "It's so noisy outside, could it be that the Regent Zhou Yanze has brought people to pick up the bride? What should I do if I'm so nervous? Would the Regent, who is so cold, come to pick up the bride? If he doesn't come, will people outside talk about it?"

At this time, the door was pushed open, and Zhou Yanze, dressed in an elaborate red wedding dress, strode in. "Where's Yanyan? Where's my bride?"

Liu Yanyan was carried out by Yuzhu and Yuzhen. She was extremely nervous and muttered to herself, "This guy's voice is so cold. Isn't he the regent? Why did he come to pick up the bride in person? This is a great respect for myself." The next moment she was picked up and she screamed in fear.

Regent Zhou Yanze carried Liu Yanyan and walked out. When he walked through the corridor and arrived at the entrance of the Duke's Mansion, he bowed to Duke Liu next to him and said, "Father-in-law, I am here to pay my respects to you with Yanyan. I will definitely treat Yanyan well, please rest assured."

Duke Liu choked up and said, "My dear son-in-law, please stand up. Be good to your daughter. Bring her back more often to sit with me and let her see this old man."

Liu Yanyan felt extremely upset when she heard this. She couldn't help but shed tears, which dripped onto Zhou Yanze's hands.

Zhou Yanze was stunned, his heart seemed to be burning, and he said to Duke Liu, "Don't worry, father-in-law, I will treat Yanyan well. She is my princess, and no one dares to disrespect her."

Duke Liu looked at Nannan for a long time before nodding.

Zhou Yanze held Liu Yanyan in his arms and walked out of the gate of the Duke's Mansion, stepping on the red carpet. The matchmaker outside shouted, "Please get into the sedan chair, and live happily ever after."

As the joyful sound rang out, Zhou Yanze smiled as he walked towards the bridal sedan step by step while holding Liu Yanyan. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on his face, making him look even more festive.

After Liu Yanyan sat in the sedan chair, she lay softly on it, and couldn't stop muttering in her heart, "Why, why did she get married?" Thinking of the regent's sharp face, a blush slowly crept up on her face.

32 sedan bearers lifted the bright red wedding sedan and slowly walked towards the Regent's Palace. Behind them, a group of people carried the dowry out of the Duke's Palace.

Zhou Yanze had a rare smile on his face. He rode a snow-white horse, with a red silk flower on his chest, and walked beside the sedan chair.

Liu Yanyan was very nervous, and her heart beat faster when she heard the cheers of the people outside.

"Wow, what a grand ceremony! This is worthy of the regent marrying a wife."

The proprietress of the tavern took the wedding cake and said with a smile, "Isn't it a grand event for the regent to marry Princess Liu? Look at all the dowry being carried up, it's dazzling."
