The prince of love, the wealth has come to me

Chapter 198: A Lively Wedding

The waiters immediately dispelled their doubts, "Don't worry, guests, the shopkeeper will be here soon. As for why the store is arranged like this, you will know later. It will definitely make your trip worthwhile."

Soon, the store was full of people, but there was still a long line at the door. The waiters shouted, "Today [Fragrant Ten Miles] will only entertain one group of customers. Other guests, please go back first and come back tomorrow."

"Why? Didn't we always line up like this before? We can wait until they finish eating before going in."

"Yes, we have plenty of time, we can queue up."

"Everyone, please be patient. Today is a special day. The shopkeeper has specially told us that you can come here to get a small card. Tomorrow, when you dine with this card, you will get a 20% discount. You can also get a gift personally prepared by the shopkeeper."

Upon hearing this, everyone went over to get their cards. After all, they didn't have to eat today, and why not eat cheaper tomorrow? Although most of the people who came here to eat were not short of money, it was still good to save a little.

The customers who entered the restaurant looked at the waiters in confusion, wondering what was going on today. On weekdays, they were always very proactive in introducing the food, but today, they had been seated for a while and no one came to ask them to order food.

Someone couldn't sit still anymore and shouted, "Guys, order some food."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the door of [Fragrance Puffing Ten Miles Away] slowly close, and a person in very festive clothes walked onto the stage set up by Ling Yueqing.

He said loudly, "Everyone, please be patient. Today is the wedding day of the shop owners. Please have a meal with all the guests who have taken care of our shop. The shop owners have specially prepared a table for you. All the bills are free today."

Everyone was shocked and started whispering to each other, "The shopkeeper is so generous."

"This is the first time I've encountered such a good thing."

"Well, I didn't know about this in advance, and I didn't have any spare gifts. I'm so embarrassed."

"It is an honor for our shop to have you all here. Our shop is what it is today thanks to your trust and support."

"The shopkeeper has specially arranged a singing and dancing performance. I hope everyone will enjoy the meal and the show today."

Not long after, someone outside suddenly shouted, "King Zhan, the princess has arrived."

Everyone looked at each other, somewhat confused.

"Who is this shopkeeper? He can even invite the prince and princess."

"Keep your voice down. Have you forgotten when [Fragrant Ten Miles] opened?"

Someone interrupted and said, "Brother, tell me quickly, what happened during the opening? I hadn't come to Shengjing at that time."

The man quietly and vividly recounted the incident at the opening ceremony when the King of War praised the hot pot in public for its delicious taste.

"I see. It seems this hot pot restaurant is really quite famous."

As soon as Ling Yueqing and Xiao Mingchen stepped into the store, everyone knelt down and saluted, saying, "I pay my respects to the prince and princess."

"Get up."

"Thank you, my lord and princess."

Seeing that everyone was a little reserved, Ling Yueqing said, "The shopkeeper is a good friend of this princess, and also a distinguished guest of our palace. Today is the wedding, and this princess has come specially to be a witness. You don't have to be so formal, just eat and drink."

"Yes."

Ling Yueqing came today as a princess, not as the owner of the shop. After all, if [Xiang Piao Shili] were to open branches in various countries in the future, having a princess as the boss would not be a good thing.

But he can have a princess as a friend, so that if someone wants to trip him up, they will have to think twice.

Soon the auspicious time arrived, and as cheerful and festive music sounded, four couples walked slowly into the hall, hand in hand.

They were wearing gorgeous suits and exquisite accessories. The grooms all had happy faces, while the brides were covered with red veils and were led by the grooms.

Everyone exclaimed in admiration, "Did you see that? Are there four newlywed couples? Or am I dazzled?"

"No, I saw four couples, but it's unheard of for them to get married together."

"It's really lively, and I caught up with it."

Ling Yueqing said, "Everyone, please be quiet."

As expected, the identity of a princess was very useful. She didn’t have to speak loudly and everyone fell silent.

"The four newlyweds today are all good friends of this princess and the prince. They have the good fortune to gather here. Today is a great day chosen by the Imperial Astronomical Observatory. They will get married together and create a good story. I wish them to love each other, support each other, be together forever, and grow old together."

"This princess declares that the wedding officially begins."

After that, the ceremonial officers specially invited by them would go through the formalities.

"Please ask the newcomer to come forward."

Then, amid the cheers of the crowd, the four couples completed the wedding ceremony by bowing first to heaven and earth, then to their parents, and then to each other. Each bow was serious and powerful, representing their respect for each other and their beautiful expectations for their new life in the future.

After the wedding ceremony, the wedding banquet officially began. The sumptuous hot pot dishes filled every table, and all kinds of fine wines were aged, fragrant and mouth-watering.

The guests raised their glasses and gave their sincere blessings to the newlyweds.

The bride was then sent back to the bridal chamber by the matchmaker, leaving the groom to drink with the guests.

Ling Yueqing and Xiao Mingchen gave them a few days of honeymoon leave, allowing them to drink and have fun to their heart's content.

Then the two of them moved forward and left. After all, their identities were there, and others couldn't leave while they were there.

On this day, there was no shopkeeper or palace commander. Everyone drank, played finger-guessing games, listened to music and watched dance. It was quite lively.

Soon the night fell and the lights came on. Ling Yueqing was very excited but also a little confused. Which house should she go to first for the bridal chamber?

The houses they bought were not next to each other, and were not even in the same direction. Ling Yueqing pulled Xiao Mingchen and stood at the gate of the palace with a conflicted look on her face, while Xiao Mingchen looked at her lovingly.

Seeing that she was in a dilemma, he said, "There are quite a few people making a fuss in the bridal chamber today. I guess all the bridal chambers are crowded with people. It's very lively. We can go anywhere."

Ling Yueqing looked annoyed, "I was so careless. I was only thinking about making trouble in the bridal chamber, and I didn't think of giving them some problems. It was so easy for them to get the beauty."

They were about to say something when they suddenly felt dizzy and then they both lost consciousness.

Because Xiao Mingchen gave everyone in the palace a day off today, as they all went to attend the wedding and make a fuss in the bridal chamber, so no one saw how two big living people disappeared out of thin air at the gate of the palace.

As for the bridal chambers, it was not until late at night, after dealing with the embarrassment of all the guests and friends, that the grooms finally entered the bridal chamber as they wished and met their sweethearts.

The red candles flickered with enchanting light and shadows, and the new house was filled with a sweet atmosphere. This night, their happy time had just begun...
