Their wedding is in a month, and the schedule is a bit tight. Everyone is very busy this month.

On the wedding day of Li Tong and Xue Yueniang, the Li family was crowded with guests. Li Jin felt that all the officials, big and small, in the capital should have come.

Thanks to Tianbao's reminder, he prepared an extra place to entertain the guests.

otherwise…

It would be a joke with so many people around.

After Xue Yueniang returned home after three days, Li Tong officially began to attend court. This was his first time attending court, and he was a little nervous.

After the court session, he went home with his nephew Li Shubai. Li Tong had never dared to dream of such a life before.

But now it really exists.

"Li Shubai..."

The uncle and nephew had just left the palace and before they had time to get on the carriage, they stopped the third princess Xue Manxue.

"Greetings, Third Princess." The two of them bowed to her together.

"I have something to say to Li Shubai, General Li..." Xue Manxue looked at Li Tong.

Li Tong looked at Li Shubai in confusion. When did he become so close to the third princess?

You don’t want Princess Shang, do you?

I haven't heard of it in the book.

Li Shubai looked at Xue Manxue and said, "Princess, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly. My uncle is not an outsider."

Li Tong chuckled a few times, pretending not to notice the look Xue Manxue gave him, and stood calmly in front of Li Shubai.

"This princess is asking you...what do you think of me?"

"This is not something I can say casually. The princess's actions are decided by the emperor and the queen." Li Shubai answered seriously.

"You... you idiot, I'm asking you..."

"Shubai, brother..." Tianbao and Li Xiaoning walked over and interrupted Xue Manxue's next words.

This made Xue Manxue very unhappy. She wanted to glare at Tianbao, but then she remembered that Tianbao was Li Shubai's aunt, and maybe she would be hers in the future...

"Tianbao, did you just come out of the palace? Why didn't I see you? Did you go to see Fourth Sister again? You didn't even talk to me. Let's get together more often when we have time."

Xue Manxue acted like she had a very good relationship with Tianbao and almost hugged her arm.

Li Xiaoning felt a chill, and she pulled Tianbao forward, "Let's go back, uncle, brother, let's go, it's getting late."

Li Shubai nodded repeatedly. As soon as they came over, Li Shubai breathed a sigh of relief.

"Go, go, go..." Li Shubai turned over and got into the carriage, and Li Tong quickly followed and climbed onto the carriage.

Soon the coachman drove away, and Tianbao and Li Xiaoning also got on their own carriages. They waved to Xue Manxue before leaving.

"Aunt, could it be that the third princess really has a crush on our eldest brother?" Li Xiaoning asked in disbelief.

Tianbao shook his head, "She and Shubai are not suitable."

"It's definitely not suitable. She's a princess with a bad temper. If she becomes our sister-in-law...won't uncle and aunt have to look at her face...No, I can't stand the thought. I have to talk to my brother about it later."

After returning home and getting off the carriage, Li Xiaoning quickly pulled Li Shubai aside and started talking.

"Brother, you must hold on. Although Princess Shang is very tempting, it may not be all good. She is the monarch and you are the minister. You are not two equals when you are together in the future, right?"

Li Shubai knocked her head and said, "What are you thinking about all day? When did I say I wanted to marry the princess? Don't talk nonsense."

Li Xiaoning patted his chest and said, "No, that's good. No, that's good."

The next day

Li Xiaoning and Mei Jing'an hurried back. Li Shubai and Li Tong had just finished their court session. The family was chatting in the courtyard while basking in the sun.

"Oh no." Li Xiaoning panted.

Mei Jing'an was not much better off, both of them were gasping for breath.

Tianbao and the others were very confused.

Li Tong asked, "What's wrong?"

Li Dachen: "The sky is falling?"

"Just now, the third princess threatened to marry my eldest brother in front of many people, and said that only my eldest brother is worthy of her as a consort."

Li Xiaoning looked at Li Shubai sympathetically after he finished speaking, "Brother...it seems like you can't escape this time, how pitiful."

Li Shubai looked at Tianbao with an "ah" sound, "Aunt, I really don't have any feelings for the Third Princess. You see...why don't you talk to the Emperor about it?"

Li Jin nodded quickly. He also didn't want his son to marry the princess.

Although the princess is the emperor's daughter, he still doesn't want to become the emperor's relative.

What if the princess gets angry one day, and the emperor makes things difficult for Shubai and the third brother in order to support his own daughter?

Tian Bao comforted everyone, "This is just the Third Princess' wishful thinking. The Emperor will not really issue an order. At least he will ask Shu Bai."

Li Shubai: "Aunt, if the emperor also wants me to marry the third princess, and I refuse...will it make the emperor lose face..."

"No, the emperor is not that kind of person. He will naturally not have any grudge against you for not marrying the third princess."

"The emperor is not the kind of person who forces others to do things. Besides, the third princess may not really like Shu Bai. Maybe... she is just in a spur of the moment situation." Xue Yue Niang said.

Liu clasped her hands together and said, "That's good, that's good."

She also didn't want her granddaughter-in-law to be a princess, as they would feel uncomfortable with a position that was too high.

I also heard that the third princess had a bad temper and was very spoiled.

Royal Palace

Xue Manxue was scolded by the emperor and told not to talk nonsense outside.

"Father, is it not okay for me to like Li Shubai? I am a princess, am I not worthy of him, a third-rank prefect?"

The emperor rubbed his forehead and said, "This is not a question of whether you are worthy or not. If you want to marry him, he must also want to marry you. Isn't it good for both of you to be in love? Why do you have to do this?"

"He doesn't like anyone else now, he just hasn't figured it out yet..."

"Have you come to your senses? You are still the same. You don't know what love is. You are a princess, the princess of Dayan, not an ordinary girl.

Your every move represents the reputation of our Dayan Dynasty. You have other sisters, so give them some face."

The emperor didn't say anything more to her after he finished speaking, but waved his hand and asked her to leave.

Tianbao bought some things and went to Ji's house to see the teacher.

Ji Chengzhi was also at home, and Ji Zhinan now didn't dare to call him Tianbao's teacher.

The current Tianbao is no longer someone he can teach, and he has never taught Tianbao anything. Tianbao still respects him as always, which makes Ji Zhinan very pleased.

After dinner, Ji Zhinan gave Tianbao some medical books and miscellaneous talks, which he had collected in recent years.

Knowing that Tianbao likes this kind of books, he will collect them whenever he sees them.

Ji Chengzhi sent Tianbao back to Li's house. As soon as he got off the carriage, he ran into Xue Jue who came to look for Tianbao.

"Xiaowu." Tianbao waved to him with a smile.

Xue Jue glanced at Ji Chengzhi, then smiled at Tian Bao and asked, "Did you go to see Master Ji?"

"Yeah, why are you here?"

"I haven't seen you for a few days. I came to see you. The Huo family just happened to send some crabs. I'll give you some."

After Xue Jue finished speaking, Yan Yi and Yan Er pointed at the guards carrying baskets behind them with a smile.
