The marriage decree was just incidental. The most important thing was that Yang Xuan wanted to ask Zhu Di to allow the Lan Yu family to go down the mountain on the day Hu Zi and Lan Xiang got married.

For Zhu Di, this was just a small matter, so he agreed.

After returning to the mansion with the imperial edict of marriage, Yang Xuan then ordered the housekeeper to find a yard outside for Lan Yu's family to stay temporarily.

When it comes time to get married, Lan Xiang will also get married from there.

In the days that followed, everyone in the Changping Hou Mansion was stirred up for Hu Zi's marriage.

Huzi was from the Changping Marquis Mansion, and Yang Xuan took care of all the trivial matters during the wedding.

Officials in the capital also received invitations sent by Yang Xuan.

Finally got the opportunity to receive the gift, how could Yang Xuan miss it.

In this way, time came to late February, the day before Huzi and Lanxiang were to get married.

Lan Yu's family all came to the capital.

Yang Xuan personally went out of the city to greet them and took them to the residence prepared in advance.

This is a large courtyard with three entrances.

Of course, it is not as good as the original Duke of Liang's Mansion.

But Lan Yu is already very satisfied with this.

After all, many officials now can't live in such a large courtyard with three entrances!

What more could you ask for?

The group of people entered the courtyard, which had been decorated for a long time. Red lanterns and curtains could be seen everywhere.

There is also a housekeeper and several servants and maids that Yang Xuan transferred from the Changping Marquis Mansion.

"Brother, you took the trouble!" Lan Yu looked at Yang Xuan with a sigh.

He could see that Yang Xuan contributed a lot to all this.

He was very happy that he and Yang Xuan were sworn brothers.

He himself is a person who values ​​love and justice, and so is Yang Xuan.

If Yang Xuan hadn't helped to plead for mercy back then, the grass on his family's graves would probably be three feet high now.

You know, in order to pave the way for his grandson, Lao Zhu never stopped holding the knife in his hand.

Yang Xuan knew very well how much risk he was taking when he begged for mercy for his family.

"Aren't you seeing someone outside?" Yang Xuan said with a smile.

"Let's see if there are any areas that are not in place and need to be modified. Now there is still time to change them."

"No need, I think this is good." Lan Yu said.

His wife also echoed.

"Oh well!"

"I'll show you where you live first."

Yang Xuan said.

After settling down Lan Yu's family, Yang Xuan stayed to have a meal with them before returning to the Changping Marquis Mansion.

The next day, Huzi and Lanxiang's wedding officially began.

Zhu Di and Xu Miaoyun did not come. One of them is the emperor and the other is the queen. They are not qualified to attend a wedding of this level.

However, people were also sent to send congratulatory gifts.

It was said that it was because Lan Yu had made great contributions to the country.

Of course, Yang Xuan also knew that this was just for others to see.

Although Zhu Di did not come, the three brothers Zhu Gaochi did.

Yang Xuan had reason to suspect that Little Lao Er and Little Lao San were just there to join in the fun, but Big Fatty was just here to eat.

As soon as the three brothers arrived, many officials who had received invitations but had not planned to come also came.

Needless to say, you know who this is for.

There were so many people coming that there was no room for tables in the courtyard of the Hou Mansion.

They can only be placed on the street, so low-level officials are not even qualified to sit in the prince's mansion.

But no one left, not even their immediate boss or the prince. Who dared?

As the head of the family, Yang Xuan could not leave easily, so Huzi had no choice but to go to the wedding in person, with no one to help him.

Fortunately, I had practiced in advance and nothing went wrong.

Lan Yu was also present when he worshiped heaven and earth.

He and Yu'er sat in the high hall on both sides, watching the newlyweds bow down with smiles on their faces.

Poor old Hu could only watch silently.

After all, his external identity is just Hu Zi's adoptive father.

Yang Xuan appeared beside Lao Hu at some point, patted his shoulder and comforted him a few words.

After worshiping heaven and earth, the bride is sent to the bridal chamber.

Yang Xuan accompanied Huzi to toast the guests.

Huzi only had a seventh-grade Jinyiwei Xiaoqi, so the officials present naturally looked down on him. Yang Xuan was with him and could support him.

After toasting, Yang Xuan returned to his seat and drank with Lan Yu.

As celebrities of the Hongwu Dynasty, officials who had experienced the Hongwu Dynasty felt sorry for the current blue jade, while young officials were full of curiosity about the blue jade.

Lan Yu ignored all these glances.

Nowadays, he has long taken these things lightly.

He and Yang Xuan drank heavily, feeling very happy.

Zhu Gaoxu also came over to toast at some point.

He expressed that he wanted to ask Lan Yu about the art of war.

Lan Yu's achievements are too high, so he is sealed as a wolf and lives in Xu!

Coupled with Yang Xuan's attitude towards Lan Yu, Zhu Gaoxu also put away the contempt in his heart.

Facing Zhu Gaoxu's eyes full of curiosity, Lan Yu turned to look at Yang Xuan with questioning eyes.

"The King of Han has some military talent. As a senior, you should give him some guidance." Yang Xuan said with a smile.

"Yes." Lan Yu nodded slightly, but did not refuse.

Although there was a conflict between him and Zhu Di, Yang Xuan spoke and he couldn't say no.

After all, he owed Yang Xuan too much.

"Thank you, uncle!" Zhu Gaoxu thanked Yang Xuan excitedly.

Then he sat down and asked Lan Yu for advice.

Yang Xuan didn't bother him anymore. After eating for a while, he ran out to toast again.

When the wedding banquet ended in the evening, the three brothers Zhu Gaochi said goodbye to Yang Xuan, and all the guests also dispersed.

The housekeeper in the mansion took the servants to clean up the mess.

The stall was a bit big today, and Yang Xuan also borrowed a lot of people from the Wei Guogong Mansion to help.

It wasn't until the sky got dark that I reluctantly finished cleaning up.

At night, after Yang Xuan finished washing, he sat on the bed with An Qing and Xiuhe, looking at the gift list and tallying up today's harvest.

Yang Xuan and An Qing read who gave what, while Xiuhe calculated the amount.

I don’t know how long it took, but all the candles were replaced before the statistics were finally completed.

Looking at the final total amount, Yang Xuan was happy.

"This time we invested a lot, but the income is huge."

"It would be nice if I could come here more often in the future."

Yang Xuan smiled.

"It was obviously the wedding of Hu Zi and Lan Xiang, but in the end it enriched your pocket." An Qing said angrily.

"Hahaha, then he has to thank me in the end." Yang Xuan said with a smile.

"Lao Hu and his family can't afford to host such a grand wedding."

"There are princes, princes, and so many officials in the dynasty. No amount of money can buy you this kind of respect."

Yang Xuan said proudly.

"Virtue!" An Qing gave Yang Xuan a roll of his eyes.

The latter chuckled, thinking about doing this again a few times.

"You said that if I do this again on my fiftieth birthday, I should be able to make another huge sum of money, right?"

"Then should I come here on my fiftieth birthday?"

"Hey, don't say it, don't say it yet?"
