When dusk arrives, Ninghou Mansion is brightly lit, creating a festive scene.

As a burst of ear-splitting firecrackers sounded, there was a bustle of people outside the house, and the sky was filled with gongs and drums.

The welcoming team was like a long dragon, slowly arriving in front of the house under the attention of everyone.

Red makeup, gorgeous clothes, full of joy, and the bride’s trousseau is countless.

When the auspicious moment arrived, the wedding sedan landed steadily. Ning Zijun dismounted his horse, stepped forward lightly, and carefully helped Lin Wanqiao get off the sedan.

The two people's eyes met, their eyes full of sweetness and anticipation.

Amid the loud and auspicious lyrics of the master of ceremonies, the two held red silk hands and accompanied by the blessings of the guests, step by step on the red felt mat spread in front of the mansion, slowly entered the door of the mansion.

When the newlyweds walked into the house, they saw the servants holding dustpans filled with grains, beans and other items, scattering them all the way to the newlyweds.

Huo Yunjue introduced to Prince Sola in the crowd: "This is the wedding custom of our Nanyao Kingdom. Throwing beans to avoid three evil spirits means to ward off evil spirits and bless the newlyweds with peace and good fortune."

Prince Sora listened with great interest, his eyes filled with curiosity.

"Your wedding in Nanyao Kingdom is really exquisite, it's really interesting!"

Jiang Quhan took the opportunity to tease him: "Sora, if you like it, why not marry a beautiful girl here and go back."

Prince Sola firmly refused: "I already have my heart set on someone. When I ascend the throne, I will marry her as my queen. I only want to spend this life with her, and I will not change my mind."

He glanced at Jiang Quhan jokingly, "Unlike some people, they are still alone!"

Jiang Quhan was stunned by what he said, and retorted not to be outdone: "What's there to show off? Let's see what you can do. I'll marry a lot of you then, and I'll be so jealous of you!"

Prince Sola pursed his lips and smiled, disapprovingly, and continued to watch the fun.

After the bean-throwing ceremony, the crowd gathered around the newlyweds and went to the main hall to worship.

Ning Ziqing was sitting next to Mr. Fu. When she saw Ning Zijun and Lin Wanqiao step into the main hall, her eyes suddenly turned red, and endless emotions surged in her heart.

The master of ceremonies read the congratulatory message loudly, praying to God to bless the newlyweds with a happy marriage and good health.

Afterwards, the newlyweds faced the heaven and earth, ancestors and parents, and performed the etiquette of three prostrations and nine kowtows in turn while the master of ceremonies sang loudly.

After each prayer, the guests responded with warm applause and blessings.

Then, Jiang Quhan stepped forward to witness the marriage of the two, said a lot of blessings, and gave them a thick wedding package.

After the ceremony, the newlyweds respectfully served tea to the elders present, acknowledged their marriage, accepted the wedding packages from them, and accepted congratulations from everyone.

Looking at this scene, Ning Ziqing couldn't help but shed tears.

In this life, she finally witnessed her brother leading a happy and complete life, which was both touching and gratifying.

Various emotions were intertwined, and Ning Ziqing had mixed feelings. She tried hard to smile, but she couldn't help but sob.

Mr. Fu noticed something strange about her and asked with concern: "Manman, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying when you're fine?"

Everyone turned to Ning Ziqing with doubtful eyes, not understanding why she was crying so much.

Jiang Quhan walked to Ning Ziqing, gently wiped away her tears, and softly comforted her.

"Ning Manman, stop crying. The bride hasn't cried yet. Why are you crying?"

Ning Zijun and others also gathered around to comfort her.

Ning Zilan stood next to Song and looked on coldly, muttering in a low voice.

"Hypocritical!"

Mrs. Song immediately gave her a warning look.

Huo Yunjue, who was sitting opposite, deeply understood Ning Ziqing's mood at the moment, but could not come forward to comfort him in front of everyone.

The pain and suffering she experienced in her previous life are now gone, and the people she cherishes will be safe and smooth.

Looking at the energetic Ning Zijun, Huo Yunjue felt a sense of pride.

After a while, Ning Ziqing's mood gradually calmed down, and she explained to everyone with choked sobs: "I... was just so happy that I cried with joy. Don't worry, I'm fine."

Mr. Fu and the others were relieved now.

Su Yanqi comforted him softly from the side: "Qingqing, you and your brother have finally come to the end of their hardships. Today is a happy event in his life. You should smile and bless him."

Hearing this, Ning Ziqing nodded repeatedly: "Qi Langjun is right, I will do it."

She urged Ning Zijun: "Brother, the auspicious time cannot be delayed. You and your sister-in-law should enter the bridal chamber quickly!"

Ning Zijun responded well, raised his hand and touched Ning Ziqing's head, then turned around and led Lin Wanqiao back to the new house.

Before the dinner, the newlyweds need to hold a tent-throwing ceremony and receive blessings in the bridal chamber.

The two of them sat on the edge of the bed.

The happy mother called the boy to roll on the wedding bed, and both families also invited ladies from aristocratic families with good fortune, longevity, and many children to sing eulogies for the newlyweds.

There was constant laughter in the room, and everyone was clamoring to see the bride’s true appearance.

Lin Wanqiao couldn't resist their enthusiasm and removed the fan that covered her face, revealing her beautiful face.

There was a sound of praise all around.

Xi Niang smiled and handed over the scissors.

Ning Zijun took off the red tassel, then each took his own strand of green silk, tied them together, and put them in his purse, completing the hair-tying ceremony.

Finally, Nantong offered a delicate little gourd, and the two of them took it, drank the Nantong wine together, and ate four glutinous rice balls together, which symbolized "perfection."

Wait for Xi Niang to finish singing the ceremony again.

There was only a token fuss in the new house for a while, and then everyone left.

Only the four maids around Lin Wanqiao and the wives who were accompanying her were left in the house.

Ning Zijun ordered his servants to pass the table around.

He held Lin Wanqiao's hand tightly and stared at her delicately made-up face, with love in his eyes.

"Ah Qiao, are you tired? I have to go out to entertain guests. If you feel tired, just take a nap."

Lin Wanqiao lowered her eyes shyly and replied softly: "Husband, I'm not tired. You can go and do your work first."

Ning Zijun didn't want to let go for a long time, and he reluctantly let go of Lin Wanqiao until Ah Hu came outside the door to urge him.

"Then you eat something to cushion your stomach first. I'll be back soon."

Lin Wanqiao nodded and watched him leave.

At the evening banquet, Emperor Yao heard that Prince Sola from a great country was visiting, and specially gave him a table of royal dishes as a treat.

A group of internal officials were even sent out of the palace to serve him specially.

When the officials attending the wedding banquet in Lin Mansion learned of the news, they also followed Lin Xitang and came to Ninghou Mansion to meet Prince Sola.

People came and went at the main table for a while, and there was an endless stream of people coming to toast and chat, which was extremely lively.

After Ning Zijun arrived, a group of booing people immediately gathered around and began to toast him in turns.

Ning Ziqing was worried and bumped Jiang Quhan's arm to remind him to help.

"Go and help my brother withstand it. They are making my brother drink like this. He will have to be carried back to the bridal chamber later."

Jiang Quhan understood and immediately called Su Yanqi and others to help Ning Zijun with the wine.

Prince Sola watched them fight over wine with great interest, but did not participate in it himself.
