In fact, Li Wu's family does have a house in Chang'an, which is quite large. However, there is only one old servant guarding it all year round, and it is not taken care of.

It is quite desolate now. If we want to decorate it to look passable for a wedding, we will have to put a lot of effort into repairing it.

Not to mention whether she would have enough time, the cost alone was enough to overwhelm her.

Although their family has been in charge of the Longwu Army for generations, they are not the type to withhold military pay.

Sometimes when something happens, such as a subordinate getting married, being seriously injured, or the barracks encountering a cold winter and lacking food and clothing, they have to take money from home to subsidize them.

Of course, as a member of the royal family, with a title, naturally fields and shops are indispensable.

Moreover, every generation of mistresses who married into the family brought a lot of shops with them. They were not poor to that extent, but they were not very rich either.

It's just smoothing out the daily interpersonal relationships, various expenses of the family, etc...

So when Princess Yucheng saw her like this, after a little consideration, she simply ordered people to rearrange the princess mansion and let them get married directly there.

Anyway, when she got married before, those framed materials were still piled up in the warehouse, all ready-made.

Now we just need to add a little more as appropriate. Besides, Li Wu will have to go back to Henan Province in a few days after the wedding, so it won’t be a big deal.

Moreover, as the commander-in-chief of the Longwu Army, Li Wu's father could not leave without permission. This time, Princess Yucheng had to sit in the main seat and receive the gift on his behalf.

...

April 18th, Li Wu’s wedding day

It happened that Su Qinchao had his turn to take a day off this time, so as Li Wu's few good friends in Chang'an, he and Yunniang were arranged to go to the princess's mansion to help early.

Li Wu is an only child. Not only does she have no brothers, but she also has few blood relatives on her father's side, except for two uncles from out of wedlock who are working in other places.

There was only one biological aunt left, but that aunt passed away a few years ago, and the cousins ​​didn't interact much, so this time I couldn't get together a few biological bridesmaids.

Therefore, this time, the couple not only had to serve as Li Wu's bridesmaids, but also had to serve as groomsmen to welcome the male and female guests.

Su Qinchao even had to block the wine for her during the banquet to prevent her from getting too drunk and delaying the wedding night.

"Congratulations!" Su Qin respectfully bowed to the visitor, and after receiving the gift list, he personally led the Minister of Personnel and his family into the house.

The Minister of Personnel's surname is Li, and he is in his forties or fifties. His wife looks about the same age.

Following closely behind him were two young men in their teens, a young lady in her twenties, and several servants.

"I have long heard that General Su Lang is familiar with Lieutenant Li. I always thought it was just a rumor, but today I know it is true."

After leading the people to the corridor and a little away from the crowd, Minister Li broke his initial silence and spoke.

"Yes, I became familiar with Captain Li when I went to Henan Province to work for Your Majesty." Su Qinchao replied respectfully.

Tonight he served as Li Wu's best man, which seemed to have attracted the attention of ministers in the court. Almost all the ministers who were invited by him to the table asked him this question.

Even those who were not guided by him frequently cast curious glances at him.

He was a little uncomfortable at first, but after dozens of rounds he got used to it. Whenever someone asked him a question, he would just answer subconsciously without having to think too much.

At this moment, he had just sent an old man from the Imperial Observatory into the mansion, and when he was returning to the gate of the mansion, he heard the young eunuch who was collecting wedding invitations sing along:

"The daughter of General Min from Jiangnan Dao and her husband have arrived!" Su Qin looked over in surprise.

Why did they invite this family? Aren’t they the family that King Xiang’s vicious bastard had invited?

It turns out that General Min’s daughter looks like this: a girl with masculine features, looks very heroic, and has a very tall figure.

Su Qinchao roughly estimated that he was about eight feet tall, taller than the average man.

The bastard, who looked quite handsome, was standing next to her and was almost a head shorter than her.

He looked particularly timid. At this moment, he was being dragged away by the pale-faced young lady of the Ren Min family. He looked like he had been severely punished.

Su Qinchao thought about it, then personally led people to the banquet and arranged for Prince Xiang to take action. It would be better for the whole family to be together.

When the time comes, Li Wu will bring people to this table to toast, and there might be something good to watch.

"Finally, we've almost arrived!" Su Qinchao glanced at the deserted alley outside the princess's mansion and breathed a long sigh of relief.

When there were many people before, it was so crowded that no one could get through. Not only was the alley in front of the mansion gate very congested, but I heard that the street outside was also very congested.

Now he had to take a good rest before the auspicious time came, otherwise, when Li Wu came to welcome the newlyweds, he would have to be busy again.

 …

15:15

"Here they come!" The eunuch who had gone to investigate came running over in a hurry:

"We'll be there in half a quarter of an hour! We're already at Suzaku Street!"

The Prince Xiang's Mansion is actually very close to the Princess Yucheng's Mansion, but in order to make the ceremony more solemn, the noble families in Chang'an usually let the wedding party circle around the inner city.

Naturally, Li Wu did the same this time. She led the wedding party out to pick up the bride early at 6:15 pm, and now she returned just in time for the auspicious time.

"Have the firecrackers for the wedding been arranged? And..." Su Qin asked the young eunuch to confirm the details.

"It has been arranged long ago, just listen!" As soon as the little eunuch finished speaking, Su Qinchao heard bursts of festive firecrackers coming from far away.

"Okay, okay!" Su Qinchao listened, took a step out of the mansion and looked forward to it.

It was not until the joyful sound of firecrackers and the wedding procession slowly appeared at the entrance of the alley that they went to greet them joyfully.

"The auspicious moment has arrived! The bride kicks the sedan chair!"
