Regent, please maintain your aloof image.

The next day, before dawn, Su Qianrou was awakened, got up to bathe, change clothes, and do her hair and makeup. It took her two hours to get ready.

At this moment, she sat gracefully on the bed, wearing a phoenix crown and a wedding gown. Her red wedding dress accentuated her peach-blossom-like face, and her eyes sparkled with dazzling brilliance. Her red lips and white teeth, along with her every gesture, exuded captivating charm. Her fair skin was as radiant as moonlight, and her slender waist was like a tightly bound silk ribbon. She was beautiful and moving, truly captivating.

Yang Shanshan and Li Nanyi were amazed when they entered.

"Cousin, are you a fairy descended from heaven? You're so beautiful!"

"I never expected that you would look so beautiful in this gorgeous wedding dress."

"It's really beautiful, but it's also really heavy. My neck is about to break," Su Qianrou complained, rubbing her neck.

“A woman dresses up for the man she loves, so just bear with it,” Li Nanyi said.

"It's easy for you to say that when you're not in the situation."

"Who told you to be the Regent's Consort? You have to be glamorous, otherwise, it would be a loss of face for the royal family."

Su Qianrou gave her a resentful look.

Just then, firecrackers went off, and Chunzhu excitedly ran in, "Miss, the Prince has arrived, but he was stopped at the door by the eldest and second young masters."

"I'll go take a look."

"I'll go too."

Yang Shanshan and Li Nanyi walked out without looking back.

"These two just abandoned me because they wanted to join in the fun."

Chunzhu couldn't help but chuckle to herself.

Meanwhile, at the gate of the mansion, Su Mingxuan, Su Haoyu, Yang Lin, and the two Lin brothers, Lin Xiaoyang, were all blocking the entrance.

"Your Highness, although you are the Regent and of noble status, it won't be so easy for you to marry my sister."

“My fifth brother is both scholarly and martial, and his intelligence is extraordinary. How could he be stumped by you? Bring it on! Today, my fifth brother is determined to marry Princess Ping Le, isn’t that right, fifth brother?”

"Ok".

"In that case, Your Highness, may I ask what you believe is the proper way for a husband and wife to get along?" Su Mingxuan asked.

"Respect, understanding, trust, support, care, and...love."

"Your Highness might be able to do it."

"Whether something can be done should be proven by actions, not by words. Now, even if I say more, it is nothing but empty talk and seems pale and powerless."

"Then I hope Your Highness will not forget what you said today."

"Ok".

Then, Su Haoyu said, "As everyone knows, Your Highness is skilled in both literature and martial arts, but I have never seen Your Highness's martial arts skills. If Your Highness can defeat me today, then I will pass this test. Otherwise, I will not acknowledge you as my brother-in-law."

"please".

Upon hearing this, the crowd spontaneously made way for a small space.

Su Haoyu walked over without hesitation.

Mu Jinchen followed.

"Your Highness, I will not show any mercy. It is not too late to admit defeat now."

"Please."

"Then I won't hold back," he said, swinging his bare fist at him.

Mu Jinchen remained calm and composed, simply turning his body slightly to easily dodge the attack.

Seeing this, Su Haoyu continued, but he dodged them all.

It wasn't until the fourth round that Mu Jinchen made his move, dodging his attack while simultaneously knocking him back with a palm strike.

Su Haoyu couldn't help but take two steps back, knowing that he was no match for him. If it weren't for his intention to let him win, he would have been defeated in the first round. Therefore, he was convinced and called out, "Brother-in-law."

Afterwards, the group arrived at the main hall, where Su Jing'an and Lin Rong had been waiting for a long time. When they saw Mu Jinchen arrive, they did not get up and remained seated.

"I have met my father-in-law and mother-in-law."

"Your Highness is too kind."

Then, the master of ceremonies announced, "The bride has arrived."

Then, Su Qianrou, holding a fan, walked in and knelt before Su Jing'an and Lin Rong. "Your unfilial daughter kneels before you two elders to thank you for raising me. Today, I will be married and become a wife. I will not be able to fulfill my filial duties in the future. I hope you will take care of yourselves." After saying this, she bowed down.

Lin Rong's eyes instantly welled up with tears.

"Once you marry, you must obey your husband. In the future, you must be self-disciplined, respectful, and obedient. Always put your husband first and never act willfully. I wish you and the Prince a deep and harmonious love, and that you will spend the rest of your lives together."

"Thank you, Father."

Lin Rong said, "When you become a wife and mother, you must be filial to your parents and kind to your children. You should respect your mother-in-law, love your children, be a good wife and mother, and live in harmony with your husband. I wish you and the prince a long and happy life together, growing old together."

"Thank you, madam."

"Get up quickly," Lin Rong said, her eyes filled with tears and reluctance.

Mu Jinchen helped Su Qianrou up.

Then, the master of ceremonies called out, "The bride is leaving the house."

Su Qianrou turned to leave.

Lin Rong couldn't help but stand up and call out, "Rou'er."

Su Qianrou was initially fine, but at this moment she couldn't help but feel a little reluctant to leave, so she wanted to turn around, but was stopped by Chunzhu.

"Miss, the bride cannot turn back."

So, Mu Jinchen turned around and said, "Please rest assured, Mother-in-law, I will definitely treat the Princess Consort well. If you miss the Princess Consort in the future, you can visit her at the Prince's residence. The Princess Consort can also come back at any time."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Then, Su Qianrou and Mu Jinchen went outside.

Along the way, the wedding procession moved slowly forward, with people gathering on both sides, officials and soldiers maintaining order, and soldiers clearing the way. The ten-mile-long procession of red bridal procession was a spectacular and lively scene.

Mu Jinchen, dressed in wedding attire, sat on his horse and walked in front, a rare smile on his face, looking much gentler than usual.

Mu Xinchen, Li Zixuan, Song Rui, and Bai Qinming followed behind him, all with bright smiles on their faces.

Next came Su Qianrou's carriage. However, compared to the common people outside, the bride seemed rather unhappy. The phoenix crown was too heavy, making her uncomfortable, and she still had to endure it for at least two more hours. How could she be happy?

Half an hour later, the wedding procession finally arrived at the Regent's Palace, and the carriage stopped at the gate.

Mu Jinchen dismounted and came to the carriage, calling out, "Your Highness, please get off the carriage."

A short while later, Su Qianrou came out.

Mu Jinchen reached out his hand to her.

Without hesitation, Su Qianrou placed her hand on his and let him help her down.

Then, the two went inside.

"The peach tree is young and tender, its blossoms are bright and beautiful. This maiden is going to her husband's home, may she bring harmony to her family. The peach tree is young and tender, its fruit is plentiful. This maiden is going to her husband's home, may she bring harmony to her household. The peach tree is young and tender, its leaves are lush and green. This maiden is going to her husband's home, may she bring harmony to her family."

Under the chanting of the master of ceremonies, the two stepped over the brazier and the saddle, and made their way to the Empress Dowager.

Then, the master of ceremonies called out again: "A piece of heaven and earth... Second bow to the parents... Husband and wife bow to each other, the ceremony is complete, escort them to the bridal chamber."

With everyone present as witnesses, Su Qianrou and Mu Jinchen finally became husband and wife.
