Early the next morning, Lu Xuan went to the Prince's Mansion.

After the prince heard about his marriage with Chu Chen, he didn't seem to be surprised, on the contrary, he was a little relieved.

"Gu knows that the sixth brother is a transparent person, and there is no need to be too persistent about these things." The prince took out a box from the drawer in the study, and while playing with it in his hand, he said to Lu Jing: "On the list that Gu gave him, I put you in the first place. The people on the list, whether it is appearance or family background, no one can match you. "

Hearing this, Lu Jing forced a smile, thinking that His Highness the Crown Prince thought he knew his sixth younger brother very well, but in fact it didn't seem to be the case.The reason why Chu Chen chose Lu Jing was very simple "to be on guard", and it had nothing to do with his family background or appearance.

If you think about it carefully, Lu Jing can be considered a very scheming person, but he is relatively indifferent to many things and doesn't like to calculate, so he naturally appears very frank.Especially Chu Chen, Lu Jing knew that he was not a weak and deceitful person, but also quite smart, so no matter whether he was hiding or using tricks in front of Chu Chen, he would be easily exposed and he would be left behind. take.

That being the case, he simply spoke out.

Unexpectedly, it was Chu Chen's reason to choose him.

"Why didn't the sixth brother come with you on such a big matter?" the prince asked.

"His Highness the Sixth Highness attaches great importance to marriage. He said that from the proposal of marriage to the ceremony of the big wedding, he has to make a fuss. He is already busy making arrangements." Lu Jing said: "He also ordered Lu, after notifying His Highness the Crown Prince, to Hurry back and help."

The prince suddenly became interested when he heard the words, and said with a smile: "Sixth brother really said that?"

"If His Royal Highness doesn't believe it, you can go and see it with Lu in a while." Lu Jing said helplessly.

"Hahaha, interesting." The crown prince smiled, handed the box in his hand to Lu Jing, and said, "I'm not going to join in this lively and lonely moment, and I will only deal with the marriage. You just need to prepare for the wedding. It's the congratulatory gift that Gu prepared for the sixth brother's wedding, you can bring it to him today."

The congratulatory gift prepared earlier was naturally not for Lu Jing and Chu Chen's marriage.

However, Lu Jing has no position to care about these things, and can only thank the prince on behalf of Chu.

After Lu Xuan left the Prince's Mansion, he rushed straight to the Sixth Prince's Mansion.

A street away, I saw lanterns and festoons at the entrance of the Wangfu, which was very lively.

After getting closer, Lu Jing discovered that there was actually a stage set up next to the palace.Although the stage has not been set up yet, it can be seen that it is very grand. It is estimated that a lot of money was spent, and there are dozens of craftsmen alone.

"Young master is here?" Chong Yang stepped forward to take Lu Jing's reins, handed it to the servant and told him to tie it up.

Lu Jing stared at the construction site dumbfounded, and asked, "What is this for?"

Chong Yang smiled, and said: "My lord said that happy events must be held happily, so I plan to set up a stage at the gate of the palace and sing for three days and three nights, so that the people around me will also enjoy themselves."

Lu Guan: ...

As expected of Chu Chen, who dared to speak and act, he would act as soon as he said it.

"Young Master, hurry up and go in, there is a lot of dust here, don't stain your clothes." Chongyang said.

Hearing this, Lu Jing stepped into the palace, and even a maid took him to Chu Chen's residence.

When he walked to the door of the main house, he saw Chu Chen in a red robe standing inside the door and looking at him when the door opened.Chu Chen's complexion was already fair, but when he was taken advantage of by the red robe today, his handsome face looked even more breathtaking. Lu Jing was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously swallowed.

"His Royal Highness is wearing a red robe, isn't he going to visit the church today to get married?" Lu Jing hurriedly put on a smile and joked.

"It's a happy event, and a little flamboyance will be effective." Chu Chen beckoned Lu Jing to enter the room, then took out another red robe and handed it to him, and said, "I asked Chongyang to buy two sets, this is yours." of."

"Ah?" Lu Xuan frowned and said, "I want to wear it too?"

"Of course." Chu Chen said: "We are the ones who get married, and I am not alone. Of course you have to wear it. And you bought everything. Wouldn't it be a waste if you don't wear it?"

Lu Jing grew up in the army since she was a child, and the clothes she wears all day are mainly black and gray, and the most colorful ones are white and blue.It was the first time in his life that he was wearing a red robe, and he felt somewhat awkward.But the matter has come to this point, Chu Chen doesn't care about the bells and whistles, if he refuses, it will inevitably appear hypocritical.

So Lu Jing took the red robe and went behind the screen to change.

"What is this?" Chu Chen asked while holding the box that Lu Jing brought over.

"A congratulatory gift from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Lu Jing said, and then changed his words: "A congratulatory gift from us."

Chu Chen opened the box and took a look, and saw that there were two jade pens inside. The jade pens were of excellent quality, and they were worth a lot of money.However, Chu Chen didn't have much desire for money, so he put the box back and said, "Take it all, I don't write very much, so I don't need it."

After a while, Lu Jing came out wearing a red robe. Chu Chen looked up and said with a smile, "Master Lu should wear more bright clothes in the future. I promise you will go out like this. I don't know how many young ladies and gentlemen will meet you along the way." You are tempted."

"Even if Lu doesn't wear clothes, there are still many girls and boys who will be tempted. The prince doesn't think that Lu is not wanted?" Lu Jing said.

"Hahahahahahahaha." Chu Chen laughed loudly and said, "If the young master is not wearing clothes, I dare not say if anyone is tempted, but it is estimated that many people will be scared away."

It was only then that Lu Jing realized that she was bald, so she smiled helplessly, letting Chu Chen tease her and didn't reply.

"Third brother only gave you this thing, and didn't say anything else?" Chu Chen asked.

"His Royal Highness said that if you really want to set up a water table, he is willing to pay for it." Lu Jing said.

Chu Chen scratched his nose when he heard the words, and said with a sneer, "I just said it casually. Doesn't this make Chongyang change to a stage? The running water seats are too extravagant and wasteful, and the things at the entrance are easy to be poisoned. It’s not cost-effective if someone eats up this king and has to be responsible. It’s better that this opera comes at the right time, and when the time comes, I’ll sing for three days and three nights, and everyone in the capital should know about it.”

Lu Guan: ...

It's silly, but there's nothing wrong with it.

"You can go to the third brother for the troupe's money later, there is not much surplus in the palace, so don't take advantage of the bastard." Chu Chen said.Lu Jing said with a helpless face: "The money, Mr. Lu, come out."

"How can I spend your money when I marry you in? Doesn't this mean that I have to eat soft food?" Chu Chen said.

"What's yours and mine? A family doesn't talk about two different things." Lu Jing laughed.

The two walked out of the palace side by side, attracting the attention of others a lot along the way.

As soon as Chongyang, the supervisor at the gate of the mansion, saw the two, he hurriedly greeted them and said with a smile, "Congratulations to Your Highness and Young Master."

"What's the rush?" Chu Chen stretched out his hand and patted Chongyang's body, and said with a smile, "You'll be congratulating me later."

Chongyang smiled naively when he heard the words, walked to the side and took out the gong that had been prepared long ago and held it in his hand.

"What's the situation?" Lu Jing suddenly had an ominous premonition.

Chu Chen raised his eyebrows and smiled at him, and said, "Show off!"

After he finished speaking, Chong Yang cooperated with him and knocked on a gong, and said in a loud voice: "Congratulations to Your Highness the Sixth Highness and Lord Lu Xiaohou, they have been together for a hundred years and have a precious son soon." Congratulations.

"The king has someone prepare a guard of honor, and we will circle around Changning Lake twice in a while." Chu Chen said: "At that time, we will all go for a stroll in the most famous shops and restaurants in the capital. Everyone knows."

As soon as he finished speaking, some servants came out carrying the guard of honor with red happy characters on them, and stood behind Chu Chen and Lu Jing on one left and one on the right.In addition, Chu Chen also arranged for the servant to carry a bamboo basket with dried fruits and the like in it.

"What is this?" Lu Yuan asked.

"Happy fruit." Chu Chen said: "It will be distributed to the people along the way at that time, so that everyone can be happy together."

Lu Guan: ...

It's a bit embarrassing for me to grow so big, but I haven't seen this eye before.

"Young Master is not willing?" Seeing Lu Jing frowning, Chu Chen asked.

"Happy." Lu Jing smiled and said, "Lu Mou is really happy."

Chu Chen smiled and said, "That's good, let's go."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chongyang rang a gong, and then a group of people set off behind Chu Chen and Lu Jing.

"Will this be too ostentatious?" Lu Jing asked in a low voice.

"Chongyang originally wanted to set up a gong and drum team, followed by carriages of honor and firecrackers." Chu Chen said: "This king thinks it is too disturbing to the people and affects the traffic, so I chose to keep everything simple."

Lu Guan: ...

It's really simple, it couldn't be more simple.

A group of people started from the Liuwang Mansion, and followed a group of spectators before reaching the bank of Changning Lake.Lu Jing felt a little embarrassed at the beginning, but she was shameless halfway through, snatched the bamboo basket from the servant's hand, and began to distribute happy fruits to passers-by herself, saying "We are happy, we are happy together."

The passers-by probably had never seen such a scene, and congratulated the two of them one after another.

There were even vendors along the way who gave them all kinds of small items, saying they wanted to be happy.

Just like that, when everyone arrived at the bank of Changning Lake, the busiest place in the capital, the servants behind them already had a bag full of gifts.

In the painted boat near the lake, the shopkeeper heard the sound of the gong and came out to check it out in person. When he heard that His Highness the Sixth Highness and the Young Master were getting married, he immediately went up to show his hospitality and invited everyone to have a drink in the painted boat.

Chu Chen glanced at the painting boat in the lake, recalled many past events inappropriately, and felt a sudden soreness in his heart.

He smiled faintly and waved his hands and said: "I will stop eating the wine, the king and the young master are busy. But today the king is happy, and I have invited all the guests on your boat to pay for the wine. Tomorrow, you will ask the waiter from the shop to come to the palace to collect money. .”

"Thank you, Your Highness!" The shopkeeper smiled and said a long string of auspicious words.

Lu Jing glanced at the two familiar guards standing on the deck of the painting boat, and couldn't help sweating in her heart.

Inside the painting boat, private room.

The crown prince and His Royal Highness Yao are drinking tea.

The sound of gongs from outside came in faintly, mixed with congratulations from others.

His Highness the Ninth Prince looked at the two figures in red robes beside the desk, and remained silent, but there was an undisguised chill all over his body.

"Did you blame Gu for not stopping them?" the prince asked.

"It has nothing to do with you to accept the bet." His Highness Ninth Prince said coldly.

The prince said helplessly: "Sixth brother is really scared this time, otherwise he wouldn't have come up with this trick, I'm afraid you don't know that he is going to get married and then go to trouble him. If you feel unjust, you can go to him and explain clearly. Can."

"He won't trust me anymore." His Royal Highness said sadly, "I don't dare to take any more risks, unless one day, I am sure that I can protect him."

The prince nodded and said, "It's best if you think about it, and Gu can rest assured."

His Highness Nine narrowed his gaze, turned his face away and stopped looking out of the window.

At this time, the shop waiter came in with a happy face, and said, "Congratulations to the two guests, His Highness the Sixth Highness has a happy event and invited all our tea money. After a while, you can open your mouth about what to eat and drink, and the account will be returned to the Sixth Highness." It's over."

His Highness Ninth Prince's eyes were full of hostility when he heard this, then he took a deep breath and took out a piece of silver.

Xiao Er didn't know his intention, so he hurriedly said: "Guest officer doesn't need to pay money, today's bill..."

"Crack!" His Royal Highness put the ingot of silver in front of Xiao Er.

Then he simply took out the money bag from his pocket, and threw the money bag to Xiao Er.

Xiao Er: ...

"Do you still have any silver on you?" His Highness Jiu looked at the prince.

The prince looked helpless and gave him his purse as well.

His Royal Highness Ninth Prince and the Prince's money bag were thrown to Xiao Er and walked away.

Xiaoer held the money bag in a daze, looked innocently at the prince and asked, "Did you say something wrong?"

"No." The crown prince patted Xiaoer on the shoulder, and said in a low voice, "My brother was cuckolded. He's in a bad mood, and it's none of your business."

The waiter in the shop weighed the two purses and sighed sympathetically.
