Today is destined to be an extraordinary day.

The entire Prince Yan's Mansion was very lively. The house was full of guests and friends, people were coming and going, and it was very lively.

Those who entered the mansion to congratulate were officials and dignitaries from all over Shuntian Prefecture.

Many of them came uninvited, and it was rare to have the opportunity to give gifts to King Yan on weekdays.

During the Hongwu period, the vassal kings had great power. In order to manage the vassal territory well, it was essential to have good relations with various officials. This was incomparable to the vassal kings after Yongle.

It stands to reason that when it comes to things like engagement, the main guests are your elders.

However, Zhu Di's situation is quite special. Both brothers are vassal kings and are not allowed to leave the fiefdom.

As an emperor, I have no time to spare. If my grandchildren have to travel all the time to get married, I am afraid that I will tire Zhu Yuanzhang to death even if he does nothing.

As for Xu Miaoyun's relatives, they all hold important positions in the imperial court and are not suitable to come to Peiping.

However, a few princesses, such as Princess Huaiqing, Princess Daming, and Princess Fuqing, sent their consorts all the way to the Prince Yan's Mansion in person to give small gifts.

And because of their good relationship with Zhu Di, these princesses will be able to die happily after the change of dynasties in the future. Of course, this is another story.

Zhu Di was in a very good mood today, with a smile on his face and warmly received those who came to congratulate him.

"Zhang Wu, Zhu Neng, you two go help me entertain the guests."

Zhu Di was a little overwhelmed and summoned his two generals.

The two people who were summoned were both powerful and heroic in appearance.

The vassal kings guarded the frontiers, and Zhu Yuanzhang set up three guards for each vassal king. Zhu Di's three guards were called the Yanshan Three Guards.

Zhu Neng, who has a goatee, is Qianhu, the left guard of Yanshan.

The younger Zhang Wu was Qianhu, the right guard of Yanshan.

They were obviously guests, but they were manipulated by Zhu Di at will, which shows their deep feelings.

"Your Highness, it seems that you are in a very good mood today. Congratulations."

At this time, a person raised his hand and spoke to Zhu Di.

This person's name is Zhang Yu, and he is as gentle as jade.

He was originally a member of the Privy Council of the Yuan Dynasty. Because of his outstanding abilities and strategies, he was appreciated by Zhu Di and invited to join the Yan Wei.

Because of his outstanding military exploits, he is still commanding Yanshan's left guard and is relied on by Zhu Di as his right-hand man.

Zhu Di spent his whole life in the army and controlled the Yan region, although he had many dealings with local officials.

But the ones he cares most about are his generals.

Zhu Di laughed and said: "My daughter has to meet her husband, how can I, the father, be unhappy?"

Hearing this, Zhang Yu was also happy, and she was happy for Zhu Di from the bottom of her heart.

Because he knows the situation of Princess Yongan.

If his son-in-law wasn't an excellent person, why would Zhu Di praise him so much?

"It seems that your highness, your son-in-law, must take a good look at it."

Zhang Yu also had some expectations about what kind of person could be recognized by Zhu Di like this.

"My son-in-law is an extraordinary person."

Zhu Di took out a zippo lighter from his pocket.

Open the lid and wipe the fire.

He wanted to show Zhang Yu that this was his son-in-law's masterpiece.

Zhang Yu must have thought of the wonderful use of this thing on the battlefield with his resourcefulness.

Zhang Yu was also looking forward to it and stared intently.

Rub rub rub——

Zhu Di lit the fire, but the flames did not burst out as usual.

Because Zhu Di took this thing out to play with at every turn.

By this time, the kerosene had just been used up.

Huh?

Zhu Di was confused and continued to light the fire.

Rub rub rub rub rub rub.

Friction rub.

Still no fire.

Zhang Yu is a little confused. What is your highness doing?

Rub, rub, rub. Click!

Zhu Di closed the lighter lid with a natural expression and said with a smile: "Do you understand?"

Zhang Yu shook his head.

"You're right if you don't understand. You'll understand after a while."

Zhu Di put the lighter back into his pocket.

He is not a fool and has already guessed that this thing cannot be on fire all the time.

There is a high probability that the kerosene has run out.

After a while, ask Zhu Gaochi to get some fire oil.

And this time.

Outside the gate of Prince Yan's Mansion, the sound of gongs and drums could be heard.

The sound of drums is booming and booming,

It's Li Xiao who's coming with a festive team!

"Princess, Princess, let's go to the third floor and have a look. Li Xiao is here!"

After Zhang Cuicui saw Li Xiao coming with his team, he hurried to report to Zhu Ningyun.

Zhu Ningyun didn't sleep well last night. The closer she got to her engagement, the more nervous she became.

Last night, she had a nightmare.

I dreamed that Prince Yan’s palace was full of guests and friends, all waiting with big eyes and small eyes.

After waiting for a day, Xiaolang didn't come to Prince Yan's Mansion.

Then, in the dream, she kept crying and crying

After waking up from the dream, she woke up from the bed and found that her cheeks were wet, her whole body was dripping with cold sweat, and her back was completely wet.

After waking up, she was extremely happy because this was just a dream.

There is no way, Zhu Ningyun's mind is too sensitive.

Life during this period was like a dream. She was afraid that this life, like a bubble or a dream, would suddenly disappear.

Deng Deng Deng——

Zhu Ningyun hurriedly ran towards the third floor of Yong'an Pavilion.

The third floor of Yong'an Pavilion is high and has a wide view. You can see the scene not far outside Prince Yan's Mansion.

The leader, who was wearing an embroidered python, a gauze hat, a gold belt, and court boots, walked with his head held high, and was extremely handsome and confident. He was the Xiaolang he had longed for.

When he arrived at the third floor, Li Xiao had already led his team into the threshold of Prince Yan's Mansion.

"Xiaolang, he's here."

Zhu Ningyun cried with joy, and two lines of clear tears ran down her face.

The moment Li Xiao stepped into Prince Yan's Mansion, her heart felt completely at ease.

"My beloved will come to marry me riding on the colorful auspicious clouds."

Zhu Ningyun murmured.

This is what Xiaolang once said to him, and he also said that he would love her for ten thousand years.

Although it was very disgusting, Zhu Ningyun always kept it in mind.

"This is."

Zhang Cuicui looked at Princess Yongan in confusion.

"This is what Xiaolang told me."

Zhu Ningyun blushed.

"Wow, I'm so envious of the princess."

Zhang Cuicui's mouth watered with envy.

If any man was willing to say such things to her, she would be willing too.

She turned to look at Li Xiao again and said in surprise: "Hey, Mr. Xiao obviously didn't receive any funding from you, the princess, so why does he look so grand, as if he has more than a dozen big boxes?"

Zhu Ningyun was also surprised and said: "Yes, where did Xiaolang get so much money?"

Let’s not talk about what’s in those boxes.

Just preparing this guard of honor and so many boxes.

I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money.

Zhang Cuicui said: "Princess Princess, do you still remember that time when Young Master Xiao asked your slave to bring it to you?"

'Although I, Li Xiao, have no money now, for me, getting money is like picking something out of a bag. '

Zhu Ningyun immediately recalled it.

Li Xiao's extremely confident face reappeared in Zhu Ningyun's mind.

"If the sky falls, I will hold you up!"

"I'm here, don't be afraid!"

"I will definitely give you all the best!"

These words echoed in my mind and shocked my soul.

In this way, Zhu Ningyun's eyes were full of admiration at this moment.

"Every word Xiaolang said is not a lie."

"He really did what he said."
