The steps are full of green osmanthus flowers, the setting sun is warm, and it is a good time for the maple leaves to dye the ground red.

As October approached, the harem and the Imperial Household Department began to get busy.

First, they had to prepare the betrothal gifts and wedding ceremony for Prince Lu Yongsheng, and then they had to prepare the dowry and return home for Princess Heshuo Heshu.

This was the first time in Jin Yuyan's two lives that she was arranging her son's marriage, and she was afraid that something might go wrong.

Therefore, although the Ministry of Internal Affairs had drawn up a process, she still pulled the Empress and Concubine Hui to review it again from beginning to end.

While Jin Yuyan was busy and exhausted, Ruyi in Yikun Palace heard the news that Yongsheng was about to get married.

She believed that, for the sake of dignity, she should remain decent even if Concubine Jia was a bad person and always plotted against her.

So Ruyi prepared another gift based on the season and her expectations for Mrs. Yongsheng and delivered it personally.

When Ruyi came, Jin Yuyan had just received a South China Sea white jade fertility-delivering Guanyin statue given by the Empress. She knew that this was a gift from the Empress Dowager to the Empress and was said to be a treasure passed down from generation to generation.

Concubine Hui sent a pure gold money tree, which was made of gold from leaves to stems to roots, expressing wealth and luxury.

The gift given by Concubine Ling Yanwan was a complete set of red gold and ruby ​​headpieces, which were dazzling, luxurious and elegant.

……

The one who surprised Jin Yuyan the most was Concubine Qing. In addition to a pair of clear and precious jade bracelets, she also gave her a complete set of her own recipes.

Jin Yuyan secretly decided to let the chef in Yongsheng's mansion learn how to cook it, because Yuntong looked like a delicate little girl and she couldn't bear to let her go.

Jin Yuyan put away the gifts one by one, thinking about what gifts to give to her sisters in return.

It was at this time that Ruyi arrived late. She held up her skirt and looked left and right at the gate of Qixiang Palace, fearing that Fugui'er's family would attack her again.

Qiuwen followed behind Ruyi and saw her master, hunched over and hunched over, approaching the entrance of the main hall as if she was here to steal something.

When Zhenshu saw Ruyi coming, she went in to ask Jin Yuyan for her opinion. Jin Yuyan said quickly, "No!"

Ruyi insisted on waiting. She felt that if Jin Yuyan did not accept her gift, her dignity would be lost.

An hour later, Jin Yuyan took a nap and let Ruyi in.

Ruyi smiled faintly at Jin Yuyan who was sitting in the upper seat, and saluted with a shaken face:

"Empress Jia, I watched Yongsheng grow up. How can I ignore his wedding? So I personally prepared a perfect gift to bless him."

As she spoke, under Jin Yuyan's disdainful gaze, Ruyi slowly opened the box in Qiuwen's hand and saw:

In the brown box, there was a bright yellow autumn chrysanthemum.

Facing Jin Yuyan's gaze, Ruyi explained:

"I know Yongsheng is impatient and competitive. This chrysanthemum is a perfect reminder for the couple to be as calm as a chrysanthemum and not to fight or compete."

As he said that, he motioned Qiuwen to bring it forward.

Qiu Wen slid to her knees and fell directly in front of Concubine Jia. Damn master, didn’t you see that Concubine Jia was about to take action!

Qiu Wen hurriedly explained:

"Please forgive me, Concubine Jia. I have already reminded you that it is not customary to give chrysanthemums to a newlywed. Isn't this causing trouble for you?"

Jin Yuyan's hands trembled slightly. She threw the box to the ground and scolded Ruyi:

"You are such an unlucky and blind person. You can't do anything else but annoy people, right?"

Ruyi looked down on Concubine Jia, saying that she was a tribute girl from the Yu family and had no understanding of the profound Chinese culture at all.

She was reminding Yongsheng and his wife to have the integrity of a chrysanthemum.

Ruyi's eyes widened, and she said innocently, "Jia Fei, how can you say that? It's autumn now, and my gift of chrysanthemums is the most unique and most in line with the season."

Jin Yuyan pointed at the chrysanthemums on the ground and said:

"Who would send chrysanthemums as a wedding gift? Besides, I remember that there are no flowers in Yikun Palace. You agreed to the share, and the flower room will not send you flowers. Where did you get these chrysanthemums? Did you steal them from the Imperial Garden again?"

Ruyi blushed. If she wanted the flower house to send it to her, how could they refuse? She just wanted to pick the freshest ones herself.

Jin Yuyan added: "You are always trying to be different and unique. You are so old and still stealing things here. You steal this and that. You are so greedy and petty. Don't bother me here. Get out!"

Ruyi was so ashamed and angry that she wanted to find a hole to crawl into. How could Concubine Jia not give her any face at all?

What did she steal? Why did Concubine Jia accuse her like that?

Zhenshu has brought Fuguier, Jixiang, and little Fuguier's whole family. At this time, several dogs protecting their master are staring at Ruyi with bared teeth.

Qiuwen, who was standing by, shrank back in fear. Zhenshu winked at her, signaling her not to move.

Sure enough, Fuguier rushed forward and chased Ruyi to bite her.

Perhaps it was because Ruyi was old, and for the sake of her dignity, she didn't want to run, and she couldn't run, so she was caught up by three dogs.

In the chaos, she half crawled and half rolled out of Qixiang Palace.

Qiuwen secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After Ruyi left, she thanked Zhenshu and followed her back to Yikun Palace.

The closer it got to Yongsheng's wedding, the more restless Jin Yuyan became.

Until the early morning of the wedding day, Yongsheng entered the palace as usual to pay his respects to the Empress Dowager, the Emperor, the Empress and Jin Yuyan, and then went to marry his wife in person.

Jin Yuyan sat upright on the main seat holding a handkerchief, Yongxuan and Yongji stood on both sides, and Yongyan leaned in her arms.

In the dim morning light, Yongsheng, dressed in a dragon robe and a flower feather on his head, walked in with high spirits.

Jin Yuyan's eyes were filled with tears. It turned out that her Yongsheng had grown so big.

When he got married in his previous life, he had already been deposed as a commoner. He had to endure so much cold stares alone. I wonder how lonely he must have felt.

Fortunately, in this life, everything is in time and everything is just right.

Yongcheng lifted his python robe and performed the ceremony of two bows and six kowtows in an upright manner. Yongxuan, Yongji and Yongyan also went down the hall and knelt behind Yongcheng, and kowtowed together.

After Yongcheng finished his greetings, he raised his angular face. His usually cheerful face now looked serious.

"Mother, today is my son's wedding day. I would like to thank you for giving birth to and raising him."

Yongxuan, Yongji and Yongyan also followed suit and thanked him solemnly:

"Thank you for your hard work, mother. When I grow up, I will definitely be filial to you."

Jin Yuyan couldn't stop her tears from falling. She smiled and said:

"On such a happy day, you just know how to make me cry."

But even as she was crying, she couldn't hide the smile on her face.

"Good boys, wake up."

Jin Yuyan pulled Yongcheng to her side, touched Yongcheng's hand, and looked at him tenderly, as if she was admiring the treasure in her heart.

"Yongcheng, are you happy? You should be happy these years, right?"

Yongcheng nodded heavily: "My son has the wholehearted love of my mother, the filial piety of my father, the friendship of my brothers and the respect of my younger brothers. There is nothing wrong with my life."

Jin Yuyan patted Yongsheng's hand, her heart suddenly filled with joy, and she said:

"That's good, my son. When you have a wife in the future, you must treat her well. Mother hopes that you will have many children and grandchildren, and live a long and happy life."

Yongcheng held Jin Yuyan's hand and leaned over to listen to her words.

Although he always quarreled with his mother over the years, he knew that his mother was the one who loved him and cared about him the most.

The sun shone in from the door and hit Yongcheng's forehead. He said very gently and seriously:

"Mother, you know that in my son's heart, you have always been like a kind old hen, protecting your sons behind you. I will be a big rooster in the future, and I will also protect you and your brothers."

Jin Yuyan's tears stopped in an instant. She waved her handkerchief and glared:

"You are the old hen. My mother is a charming and graceful beauty. You have inherited one tenth of her beauty, so the princess is willing to marry you."

Yongxuan, Yongji and Yongyan looked at each other. Wasn't their mother crying just now? How could her expression change so suddenly?

Yongyan whispered, "Eighth Brother, Ninth Brother, Mother said that beauties are always moody."

After Yongcheng bid farewell to Jin Yuyan, he went to Taiji Hall to hold the wedding ceremony, and then returned to the palace to get married.
