Protagonist:

Yan Qianqian

An Wangfei let out a cold hmph and said, "Otherwise? What did you think? Just what value do you think you have? Hurry up and step aside, don't delay important matters here!"

Yan Si hurriedly agreed submissively, "Mother Consort, calm your anger. The matter was originally like this. That Dongying Huangdi indeed spoke thus at the time. Your son had already begun packing his baggage, preparing to return to Dachang to discuss this matter with you all.

Who would have expected Yu'er to personally go beg Dongying Huangdi, and that Dongying Huangdi, for some reason, actually agreed to Yu'er marrying into our family. However, he only hopes that when the two of us have time, we can go to Dongying for a short stay."

Upon hearing this, Wangfei was first stunned, then reproached, "You rascal, since that's the case, why didn't you inform me earlier?"

As she finished speaking, the surrounding people only then suddenly understood, knowing the reason. Qianqian was seen cheering and leaping for joy, happy like a spirited little deer bouncing up, crying out nonstop, "Wonderful! This way, Xingyu Elder Sister will become my Second Sister-in-law! Yay yay yay!"

Yan Shuang'er at the side was also unable to contain her joy, smiling broadly as she praised Yan Si, "Second Brother truly has great ability! To actually pull this off!"

Having spoken, Yan Si smiled and gave a subtle signal to the young servant at his side. That servant understood instantly, quickly stepping forward to present a scroll of bright yellow imperial edict to Yan Si's hands.

Yan Si held the imperial edict with both hands, presenting it respectfully before Wangfei, and said slowly, "Mother Consort, this is the imperial edict personally written by Dongying Huangdi. Please examine it."

After Wangfei respectfully received the imperial edict, Yan Shuang'er and Qianqian also couldn't suppress their curiosity, quickly crowding close. The three heads pressed tightly together, together casting their gazes upon that scroll of bright yellow imperial edict, carefully reading every single character within.

After they finished reading the entire edict, Wangfei's face instantly blossomed into a radiant smile. Those beautiful eyes had already curved into fine slits from smiling, and she murmured, "I long felt this child Yu'er had destiny with us. Sure enough, it turns out she actually has the destiny to become my daughter-in-law!"

Yan Shuang'er standing at the side was likewise full of joy. She hurriedly chimed in, "Mother is absolutely right! The most important matter now is to quickly request the Emperor to issue an imperial marriage decree. Only then will it be proper and justified, and we can also quickly select an auspicious day to prepare their wedding!"

Wangfei nodded repeatedly in agreement, so excited she became somewhat flustered, muttering, "Oh my, look at how happy I am, I'm almost confused with joy! Chunxi, hurry hurry, quickly go fetch Wangye to come over!" Upon receiving the order, Chunxi hurriedly acknowledged, then rushed toward the study like a gust of wind.

Not long after, Chunxi arrived before the study door. At this moment, the study's main door was tightly shut, as if isolating the clamor and bustle of the outside world. Chunxi steadied herself, raised her hand and lightly knocked on the door, and called softly, "Wangye, Your Servant requests an audience."

A low and majestic voice soon came from inside the room: "Come in." Hearing the permission to enter, Chunxi carefully pushed the door open and walked in. After entering the study, Chunxi didn't dare be negligent, hurriedly saluting An Wang: "Your Servant pays respects to Wangye."

An Wang raised his hand slightly to signal: "Dispense with ceremony. What is the matter?" Chunxi's round and cute face was now also covered full of joy. She walked quickly before An Wang, bowed slightly in salute, and said, "Wangye, Wangfei sent this servant to invite you to the front hall. They say there is a tremendous happy event!"

An Wang raised his sword brows slightly upon hearing this, asking with great interest, "Oh? A great happy event? What good thing could make Wangfei this happy? Very well, this King will go take a look." Having spoken, he slowly stood up, his figure tall and straight like a pine, striding toward the door. Chunxi followed closely behind, step for step, not daring the slightest negligence.

Not long after, An Wang arrived at the front hall entrance. Before even entering, he heard a chorus of chattering laughter coming from inside, extremely lively. The corner of An Wang's mouth curved up slightly. He lifted his foot and entered the hall, declaring loudly, "Has Si'er returned?"

His voice hadn't fallen when a remarkably handsome young man hurriedly stood up, calling respectfully toward An Wang, "Father King!" This person was precisely Yan Si. And the two women sitting at the side — Qianqian and Yan Shuang'er — also called out in unison with tender voices, "Father!"

An Wang smiled and nodded at them, then turned his head to look at Wangfei sitting in the main seat. His eyes were full of curiosity and inquiry as he asked, "Imperial Consort, what exactly is the happy event, to make everyone this overjoyed?"

Wangfei let out a light laugh. That smile was like a flower blooming in spring, gorgeous and moving, the corners of her lips seemingly unable to contain the joy. She lightly raised her hand, passing a bright yellow imperial edict to An Wang, and said, "Wangye, you look at this first."

An Wang took the imperial edict. At a single glance he recognized this was Dongying's imperial edict; its style differed from Dachang's. He steadied his mind and carefully read the contents. After finishing reading, An Wang's face was full of gratification. His gaze fell on Yan Si, and he praised, "Haha, good lad, truly promising!"

Yan Si, hearing his father's praise, couldn't help but feel somewhat embarrassed. He scratched the back of his head, revealing a simple and honest smile.

An Wang was in high spirits and said to everyone, "Since it's so, this King will now enter the palace to request Imperial Brother's imperial marriage decree." Wangfei nodded gently in reply, "Mm, go quickly and return quickly. Your concubine will wait at home for Wangye's return." Afterward, An Wang turned and left the front hall with great strides, heading toward the Imperial Palace.

After speaking, An Wang's expression turned solemn. He carefully tucked the imperial edict into his bosom, then nimbly vaulted onto his horse. He squeezed his legs against the horse's flanks, and the steed shot off like an arrow released from a bow, galloping toward the Imperial Palace. All along the way, hoofbeats resounded through the long street, causing passersby to turn their heads one after another.

Not long after, An Wang had already reached the Imperial Palace gate. He reined in the reins, lightly leaping down in one fluid, graceful motion. Afterward, he led the horse, walking quickly along the incomparably familiar road toward Yudi. As for the layout and paths within this palace, An Wang knew them like the back of his hand, navigating with ease.

Just as An Wang reached the Yudi entrance, before he could speak, the guards on duty, quite sharp-eyed, quickly walked inside to report An Wang's arrival. An Wang stood quietly outside the door waiting. Not long after, he heard a guard shout loudly, "An Wang, enter!"

Receiving permission, An Wang stepped into Yudi. Just inside, he saw the Emperor sitting at the desk, intently reviewing memorials. The Emperor looked up and saw An Wang enter, a faint smile appearing on his face as he said, "Old Seven has come."
