We were going to burn incense tomorrow, so shouldn't we prepare something? So the sisters went to a jewelry store together, picked and chose, and each of them bought something they liked before leaving.

Then we went to the clothing store, the pastry shop, and the teahouse. After a long walk, we came out. It was getting dark outside, and in the distance we could hear the loud sound of gongs and drums.

It turned out that the Li family's wedding procession was circling the city.

"It seems that Li Zong still likes Yu Rou very much. Look at this grand ceremony."

"Wait a few days, ask Yurou out and ask her how she feels about getting married."

The sisters laughed at Chen Xiaoling for saying anything.

"I learned it from Youlan."

Several people returned home in their own carriages.

The Li Mansion was very lively. When the bride got out of the sedan chair, everyone watched the entire wedding process and couldn't wait for the banquet to begin.

Ye Qingchen sat with the Seventh Prince and the others. Li Chuang poured them some wine, but the Seventh Prince covered his glass and said that he had quit drinking and would drink tea instead.

Everyone looked at the Seventh Prince, wondering why he suddenly stopped drinking?

Ye Qingchen said, "This is a wedding wine, Seventh Prince, please show some appreciation!"

The Seventh Prince took another teacup from the side and asked Li Chuang to fill it up.

"How about this, when the newlyweds come to toast, I'll serve tea instead of wine, and no one will notice anything."

Li Chuang was puzzled: "Your Majesty, are you feeling unwell?"

The Seventh Prince smiled and said, "I'm fine. I just suddenly don't feel like drinking. It's not just today. I started quitting drinking a few days ago."

Chen Su smiled: "If a man doesn't drink, he has come to this world in vain."

Ye Qingchen's eyes were deep as he stared at the Seventh Prince's noble and handsome face, thinking that if this man was not a prince, if he was not so romantic, he would still be a good match for Youlan.

"Seventh Prince, I apologize to you for what I said in front of the emperor that day." Ye Qingchen raised his wine glass, and the Seventh Prince returned the toast with tea.

"General Ye didn't say anything excessive. I have a bad reputation, so it's normal for people to misunderstand me. General Ye didn't mind and even invited me to dinner at the Prime Minister's Residence. I'm very grateful. Does General Ye have any candidates for my sister-in-law?"

General Ye looked at the Seventh Prince calmly and said, "There is already a suitable candidate. I will create an opportunity for my sister to get to know him."

The Seventh Prince's eyes moved slightly, and he looked up: "I wonder who it is, do I know him?"

Li Chuang and others present also looked at General Ye curiously, wanting to know who he was.

General Ye smiled and said, "This is my family affair. When there is good news, you will know it naturally."

General Ye kept the secret, and the Seventh Prince remained calm, but his heart felt like it was cut by a stone and it hurt a lot.

Li Zong came over to toast in a bright red wedding dress. His face was flushed and he had drunk quite a bit, so his tongue was a little stiff.

"Thank you, Seventh Prince, thank you General Ye for coming, and thank you all here. Please forgive me for the poor hospitality."

Li Zong drank the whole thing in one gulp. When the servants tried to take him away, he walked over to General Ye and said, "I'm getting married today. Youlan must be very sad. She must be hiding in her room crying right now. Big brother, go back and persuade Youlan to stop putting her heart on me and look at someone else."

General Ye sneered, stretched out his hand to pinch Li Zong's arm, and whispered: "The one who will be happiest about your marriage is my sister. Let me tell you, the husband my family has chosen for Youlan is ten thousand times better than you. You will see it in a few days."

Li Zong's wrist was pinched so hard that he cried out. The servant quickly begged General Ye to let him go: "General Ye, my young master is drunk, please don't be offended."

General Ye released his hand and said contemptuously, "With your appearance, my sister must be blind to fall for you."

The servant helped Li Zong to another table to toast, but he suddenly fell to the ground with a thud, and the wine glass in his hand broke, attracting everyone to look back. Li Zong got up in a very embarrassed manner, and the servant brushed the dust off his body.

The Seventh Prince said calmly, "I'm sorry. I was just stretching my legs and didn't intend to trip you."

What could Li Zong say? He could only leave in silence.

General Ye's mouth curled up slightly. He raised his glass and gestured to the Seventh Prince, and the two of them smiled knowingly.

Ye Youlan had dinner with her mother and sister-in-law in the evening. The Prime Minister and General Ye had gone to Li's house to attend the wedding banquet and had not returned yet.

Mother and sister-in-law remained silent and observed Ye Youlan carefully.

Ye Youlan put down her bowl and chopsticks: "Mother, sister-in-law, I know what you are worried about. I will say it again that I don't like Li Zong. I don't mind who he marries."

The Prime Minister's wife added unwillingly, "But you said before that you would not marry anyone but him."

Ye Youlan really wanted to smash this head. What kind of charm did Li Zong have that made the original host say such words?

"I didn't understand before and just said it casually. If you don't believe me, then how about I become Li Zong's concubine tomorrow?"

"No, no," the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law tried to stop him, "You can't say such nonsense."

The prime minister and his son returned home, supporting each other, staggering from side to side. Ye Youlan frowned, "Dad, big brother, how much did you drink? Don't we have any wine for you?"

The prime minister held his daughter in his arms, his eyes hazy with drunkenness, and said, "Youlan, don't be sad. Dad will definitely find you a good husband in the future."

Ye Youlan came again with a look of disgust. How many times should she say this!

"Dad, are you confused? That Minister Li schemes against you everywhere. It would be better if we weren't in-laws! What a pity for you and big brother. Li Da is not a good person, and his son Li Zong is even less so."

Ye Youlan said this and turned away. The Prime Minister's wife asked someone to help the master and the young master back to their room.

Ye Youlan was originally in a good mood, but her family members made her feel as if she had been abandoned. She suddenly became irritated and asked Xiaomei, "Who is better, the Seventh Prince or Li Zong?"

Xiaomei said awkwardly, "Let's go with Master Li. He's young and not a playboy. Master Li is always thinking about how to please you. You've thought about marrying Master Li before."

Xiaomei suddenly seemed to realize something when she said this: "Miss, you didn't go to see the Seventh Prince because Master Li fell in love with Qin Yurou, did you?"

Ye Youlan's eyes were wide open like copper bells. She couldn't believe that Xiaomei would have such an idea. At the same time, her heart skipped a beat. If Xiaomei thought this way, did the Seventh Prince think the same way?

"How is the Seventh Prince inferior to Li Zong?"

Xiaomei then counted on her fingers and said to the young lady, "The Seventh Prince has impeccable looks. Apart from the eldest young master, he's the most handsome in the capital. He's a bit old, eight years older than you and two years older than the eldest young master. The worst thing is that he's a playboy. He's always in brothels and has no shortage of beauties around him. Look, he's obsessed with you now and listens to you in everything, but in the future, besides the princess, he'll have concubines, concubines, and many maids. Miss, with your temper and personality, can you stand up to those women?"

Ye Youlan listened to Xiaomei's analysis and looked worried: "What should I do? Should I dump him?"
