Wen Chang's speech made her mouth dry, but this was just the beginning.

There is never a shortage of arrogant orcs in the Empire, not to mention that the Empire's orcs have a long-standing prejudice against half-orcs. Even if they are persuaded today, something unexpected may happen tomorrow.

But the handling of the orcs involves the development of new star fields. Not only that, Wen Chang has a guess in her mind that her great uncle has not forgotten what the Komansni Empire did to her grandmother.

Because my great uncle has dealt with all the orcs who forced my mother to go to the battlefield over the years.

For example, Zhou Yaowen was demoted further and further away, while Xu Jiayu of the White Wolf family became an abandoned son of the family and turned into a playboy who spent his days in debauchery. Even so, he was still being watched by his uncle's people.

Peter from the Duke's Mansion and Lou Sang from the Lou family were both thrown to the northern border. Wen Chang's grandfather Ji Xiaobai happened to be there too. The two of them lived a hard life. After more than 30 years, Peter finally had the opportunity to return to the imperial capital. Lou Sang finally climbed to the position of major with his military achievements in recent years.

But when Wen Chang thought about the things she had found out about the person who harmed her grandmother, she felt confused.

The Will family was caught by their uncle for hoarding forbidden items and was suppressed for a long time; the Kadis family was implicated by Tang Mo and also fell into silence.

The Zhou family was hiding quite deeply, and they were implicated when they were dealing with the radical orcs. For example, Yun Duo was sent to Prince Philip through them.

The reason they haven't fallen into complete decline is that they still have the capable Zhou Hangbai, because their uncle plans to keep him for her. Therefore, only some people in the Zhou family died, and the head of the family was replaced.

As for the others, although they cannot recover to their former glory for the time being, as long as they have not left the imperial capital, there is still hope for their revival.

……

The entire morning meeting lasted more than two hours longer than usual. When Wen Chang came out, she felt a little weak. She had overused her brain and would have to find Lan Yan and the others to replenish her energy in the evening.

Thinking of this, she said hello to her uncle and Wenbert and returned to the back garden.

The engagement party started in the afternoon, but the afternoon was used to entertain guests and see gifts from various countries. Wen Shang and Lan Yan only needed to wear formal clothes and express their gratitude everywhere.

The topic will officially begin at night.

"Dad, I've already told my uncle that when the ceremony starts, I'll let you lead me there."

When Liancheng was sitting in the living room feeling melancholy and lost, he suddenly heard his daughter's words. He looked at the graceful female in front of him in astonishment.

Wen Chang thought he didn't hear clearly, so she said it again, "My uncle said that at today's engagement party, let Dad take me to the stage. If Dad sees me, it means Mom has seen me too. I want Mom and Dad to personally accompany me to harvest this happiness, okay? Dad!"

Although her father was not with her all the time, she always knew what he did for her.

So today, she should let her father hold her hand and witness her happiness with his own eyes.

"Tangtang"

His daughter's thoughtfulness came so suddenly that Liancheng couldn't help but be speechless, and at the same time, a feeling of bitterness surged in his heart.

If Rulan were still alive, she would happily hold her daughter's hand with him, and then watch her daughter walk towards her own happiness with a gentle face.

"If Ru Lan saw today's engagement party, she would definitely be happy for you."

As he spoke, Lian Cheng gently rubbed her head.

Wen Chang took his arm, leaned her head on his shoulder, and said something she had always wanted to say, "Dad, thank you."

Thank you for loving me and Mom all these years.

Living in the world of fame and fortune, Liancheng has been able to insist on not getting married for ten years. It was he who made Wen Chang realize that love cannot be defeated by time.

This is also the reason why she has never been disappointed despite the long separation from Lan Yan, Xuan Mo and others.

Because the orcs around her, whether it was her uncle, Wenbert, or her father, they influenced Wen Chang invisibly, making Wen Chang firmly believe that it is not that difficult to remember the original intention and be consistent.

A long red carpet stretched from the back garden to the front hall.

Getting off the luxurious float, Wen Chang put her hand in her father's.

The two of them walked hand in hand to the front. At the end, their uncle was standing on the platform. On both sides of him were Lan Yan, Bai Junxi, Helix, Xuan Mo and Xiao Yu.

Today's emcee is Wenbert, who is wearing a white tuxedo and standing under the stage, waiting for Liancheng to send people to the platform in front of him.

The two of them touched each other's chests, and then Liancheng walked away. Wenbert announced the start of the engagement ceremony, and first invited the groom, the mermaid king Lan Yan, to exchange the objects of engagement with the bride and hold hands to take an oath.

Lan Yan was wearing an extremely gorgeous dress today, probably to bring out his beauty to the fullest. Apart from the crescent-shaped jewelry on his forehead, the two strands of long hair hanging in front of his ears were tied up, each with a small blue bead hanging on it, and the rest of his long hair was loosely draped behind his head.

He walked up to Wen Chang, first held her hand and kissed the back of her hand and fingertips, then he and Wen Chang looked at each other and smiled, and began to wear the matching items brought by the waiter on each other.

Finally, they kissed and swore to each other.

Wen Chang: "I wish to form a good relationship with Lan Yan, live in harmony forever, help each other sincerely, and swear an oath of good marriage."

Lan Yan: "I am willing to swear in the name of the Mermaid King that today, Dasara and I are destined to be together forever. I hereby write this promise on a piece of red paper to make a promise to be together forever."

Then it was Bai Junxi's turn. He took Wen Chang's hand and kissed it.

Unlike the twin shells brought from the deep sea that Lan Yan had decided to use as a symbol of harmony for the two of them, Bai Junxi prepared two wolf teeth. The wolf teeth were obviously carefully polished, and when the waiter presented them to them, they were strung together with a bright red rope.

Wen Shang let him put it on her hand with a smile on her face. In fact, she thought it would look better on her feet, but since it was an engagement party, everyone must be able to see what their bond was.

Helix ranked third. The order in which they came forward to exchange the objects of the contract represented his own position and the strength of his family among the five people.

However, although Xuan Mo can be ranked fourth, it is mainly because Xiao Yu's main forces are in the south. Otherwise, if the two of them really compete with each other, it is hard to say who is stronger and who is weaker.

With Xiao Yu and Wen Chang’s vows completed, the engagement ceremony only had one last step left - a toast.

Although the five grooms all married into the royal family, according to the orc customs, the younger generations from the female's natal family still toasted the grooms, which was also a process of recognizing relatives.

Of course, if the groom cannot drink, he has to ask the orcs and friends from his family to come and stop him from drinking.

"Come on, Secretary-General Bai, let me toast you!"

Wen Jiang rushed up with the younger generations of the White Tiger Family.

Here, Aiqi and John also pestered Xiao Yu, "Captain Xiao, come on, have a drink! Why are you leaving?"

"Mermaid King, come, have a drink."

"Your Excellency the Duke, we would like to toast you as well..."

The younger generations of the Lian, Fang, and Mu families also gathered around. Although the White Tiger family did not have that many younger generations, the Lian, Fang, and Mu families were more or less related to the royal family.

Well, except for Xuan Mo, who was Wen Chang's childhood sweetheart and had already taken care of everyone around him, no matter how powerful Lan Yan, Bai Junxi and others were, they would be stuck at this stage.

By the time they got away from the toast, Xuan Mo and Wen Shang had already run away and no one knew where they were.
