In the blink of an eye, it was Xie Ying's birthday.

The servants started working early in the morning.

Special arrangements were made in Duke Xie's mansion. After all, they had received the news early on that Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess, the First Prince, and Princess Jinning would all be guests at the mansion.

Xie Ying wore a pink dress today, and her headdress was also carefully selected and decorated.

Xie Jiaojiao gave her elder sister her birthday gift early on, "a peach blossom hairpin."

She took it out like offering a treasure. It was carved from crystal clear white jade.

"It's obviously very beautiful, but my sister is dressed up so carefully today that this peach blossom hairpin doesn't match her. I'd better let her wear it on an ordinary day." Xie Jiaojiao said, and prepared to put the peach blossom hairpin away.

"No, it's a gift from my younger sister, so I must wear it." Xie Ying smiled, took the peach blossom hairpin and found a suitable place to insert it in her bun, "It looks pretty good."

"Of course, the old Taoist priest said that this peach blossom hairpin will bring the best luck in love to my sister." Xie Jiaojiao said confidently.

Still lucky in love...

After her birthday, her father and mother will choose a marriage for her.

But she——

But she didn't want to get married at all, and didn't want to marry a man she had never met a few times.

"Sister?" Xie Jiaojiao felt that it was her sister's birthday, but she seemed a little unhappy.

Xie Ying smiled, "It's okay." She looked at herself in the bronze mirror and stood up, "Let's go. Maybe big brother, His Highness, Princess Jinning and the others will be here soon."

Xie Jiaojiao said: "There is also the eldest prince. I heard that the eldest prince is like a banished immortal."

Exiled Immortal——

The people in the Imperial Observatory are as cold and aloof as banished immortals, and are not interesting at all.

But Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess wants Big Brother to bring this exiled immortal down to earth...

This is indeed a bit too difficult.

Down towards the back.

Xiao Yao walked straight towards Xie Yunchu, "My father gave me a day off today."

Xie Yunchu looked at Tang An who was following behind her, and when she saw that there was no memorial in his hand, she thought that the emperor must have taken it away.

"Then shall we go directly back to the Duke's Mansion?" After going there today, perhaps she would never go to the Duke's Mansion again.

"Brother, I don't know if Zhen'er has set off yet," he said, turning back to look at Tang An, "You go and check. We are waiting for news in Jinrong Palace."

Tang Anfu nodded, "Yes, I'll go right away."

Half an hour later.

All the talented people in the palace gathered together and headed towards the Duke's Mansion in a mighty procession.

In the carriage, Xiao Zhenzhen ate cakes while chatting with her elder sister. They talked about Xie Ying, Zhou Yiqing, and then Zhou Yiqing to the young ladies and gentlemen from other aristocratic families.

Xiao Yao said, "All the people you mentioned will be here," and after a pause, she continued, "You might as well take this opportunity to take a closer look, so that you don't end up in the future when your father and mother suddenly want to arrange a marriage for you and you don't know which family has a good son."

"Sister..."

Xiao Zhenzhen blushed and glanced at Xiao Chen, "Instead of talking about me, you might as well talk about Brother Chen."

Xiao Chen's eyes suddenly opened, "I won't get married."

Not getting married...

Xiao Yao's heart rang, and Xie Yunchu also had a bitter face. But Xiao Zhenzhen asked, "You're not getting married?"

She smiled, innocently and with a bit of clarity, "If you don't get married and have children, Cangyun Country is so big, and even a princess like me has been granted a lot of territory. The rest of the territory, without people of our own to guard it, who knows what the future will be like?"

Xiao Chen: “…”

Xiao Yao: “…”

Xie Yunchu: “…” I have to give Zhen’er a thumbs up. She is so brave to be so outspoken.

"Don't look at me," Xiao Zhenzhen frowned and looked directly into her brother's eyes, "My elder sister and I are two women. When it comes to giving birth to children, my elder sister and I are at most like our mother. At most -"

"Two at most."

After saying this, Xiao Zhenzhen's face turned red. She then stood up, opened the door of the carriage, and sat outside with Tang An and Jian Shun.

In the carriage.

Xie Yunchu laughed, "Princess Jinning is the youngest, but she sees things the most clearly."

"Yes, I didn't know that this little girl - the royal family's offspring died, I didn't expect that she still missed him. It shows how worried my father and mother must be."

Xiao Chen: “…” He was inexplicably called out.

He has followed Master Changkong and Master Ding since he was a child. In his world, there is no concept of passing on the family line.

Even though Master Ding had analyzed the situation in Cang Yun Country to him, he still felt that having children was not a must in life.

"So, my royal brother, our family may seem glorious, but it is actually very dangerous." Xiao Yao frowned and even moved towards Xiao Chen, like a little sister acting like a spoiled child to her brother, "You can't put all this pressure on me and Zhen'er."

Xiao Chen: “…”

He really had never thought about this question.

Looking back now, it’s no wonder that Master Ding and Master Rong always say things that are ambiguous.

It turns out that they all hope that he will get married and have children...

For a moment, it was really ridiculous.

Xie Yunchu watched from the side and saw Xiao Chen's reaction clearly. He was afraid that he would not be able to change Xiao Chen's opinion for a while.

He cleared his throat and said, "Ayao, you don't have to embarrass my brother."

Xiao Yao: “???”

Xie Yunchu continued, "Big Brother has been following Master Changkong and Master Ding, who are isolated from the secular world, for many years. He has long been calm. Getting married may be too sudden for Big Brother."

Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Yun Chu is right."

Xiao Yao frowned and couldn't laugh.

Xie Yunchu continued: "However, Master once said before he left that the eldest brother has a destiny in the world of mortals."

Although the master did not tell him this, judging from the care the master showed to his eldest brother, he supported his eldest brother having a Taoist partner, getting married and having children.

I hope Master won’t blame me.

Xiao Chen lowered his eyes slightly, and he also remembered what Master Changkong said after seeing him.

They all say that he still has a connection with the world.

And the peach blossom hairpin that Uncle Rong gave him that day——

Xiao Yao asked curiously, "When did Uncle Rong say that?"

Xie Yunchu said: "Before leaving the capital." The specific time was arranged by him, there is no specific time.

"Uncle Lian Rong also said so. How about my royal brother take a closer look today and then ask my father to grant you a marriage?"

Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Yao, “My dear sister, you are too impatient.”

Xiao Yao pursed her lips, feeling a little embarrassed. Fortunately, Xie Yunchu said, "Don't worry. Maybe when the emperor's fate comes, it can't be stopped."

When fate comes, can’t you stop it?

He is in the Imperial Observatory every day, how could they be destined to be together?

The Duke's Mansion is extremely lively today, to a degree that no one had expected.

Xie Ying was completely shocked. "All the young men from the capital, all the young ladies from the noble families, and all the young ladies waiting to be married are here?"

Mingzhu, the personal maid, nodded and said, "Yes, they are all here." If the Duke's Mansion wasn't big enough, it would probably not be able to accommodate so many people.
