Su Qingzhi nodded. “Since Si Tianjian says so, we’ll do as Your Highness says. However, the betrothal gifts and ceremony…”
Su Qingzhi glanced at the courtyard, filled with piles of items, feeling a bit worried.
Su Dingheng’s hands, tucked into his sleeves, fidgeted uneasily. “Your Highness’s betrothal gifts are quite generous. When the emperor appointed the empress, he only gave a hundred and twenty betrothal gifts.”
Today, Chu Yihan had sent 360 boxes, three times the number the emperor had sent to the empress!
Where would they store all of these if the Marquis’s Manor wasn’t spacious enough?
Chu Yihan, unconcerned, remarked, “Everything I have belongs to the Princess Consort. It’s not excessive.”
Su Dingheng instantly fell silent.
When it came to Su Dingwei and Qin Wan, although Qin Wan was shocked, she didn’t intend to speak up.
However, her husband was an honest man. He said, “Your Highness, there are customary procedures for your wedding ceremony. On the day of your wedding, you have to worship your ancestors and open an imperial ancestral temple. Is this… too extravagant?”
For an ordinary family to open an ancestral hall, all their relatives had to be present to discuss matters.
Opening an imperial ancestral hall required the presence of all imperial family members, bowing and kowtowing. When they proceeded to the ancestral hall, commoners would kneel and greet them.
This kind of grandeur was unprecedented, even for the emperor.
Chu Yihan remained calm. “As a member of the imperial family, I naturally have to inform my ancestors of my marriage. I won’t make it public.”
All their concerns and feelings of impropriety were brushed aside by Chu Yihan.
As Su Yingxue’s elders, they had nothing to say.
Chu Yihan’s gaze softened as it landed on Su Yingxue. “Is there anything else you’re unhappy with? Do you want anything else?”
Lin Qin and Si Tianjian were so shocked they could barely speak!
When they replied to Chu Yihan, they were drenched in cold sweat. When had they ever seen Chu Yihan smile?
But the smile he directed at Su Yingxue was beyond words!
How many lifetimes would one need to cultivate to see such a divine visage?
Lin Qin was dumbfounded.
Su Yingxue pursed her lips and shook her head. “It’s nothing.”
Chu Yihan could sense her indifference, and the tension around him eased. “You don’t have any objections? Is there something you’re dissatisfied with, or are you dissatisfied with everything?”
His piercing gaze shifted to Lin Qin and Si Tianjian.
The two immediately knelt. “Please instruct us, Miss Su. If there are any shortcomings, we will rectify them immediately!”
Although Lin Qin had been treated by Su Yingxue before, he felt a sense of camaraderie, but now, in front of Chu Yihan, he had no choice but to kneel!
Si Tianjian, adept at reading expressions, tried to say something to please Chu Yihan. “Perhaps Miss Su feels that the wedding date is too distant?”
Chu Yihan’s expression instantly softened. “Is that what you think? I can arrange for a closer date.”
“No need! The eighth of next month… is already quite soon.”
Discussing marriage made Su Yingxue nervous.
Su Han stepped in to ease her sister’s tension. “Your Highness, she’s just shy. Your wedding is much more complicated than that of an ordinary noble. She’s never experienced it before, so she’s a bit overwhelmed. Please forgive her.”
Su Yingxue glanced gratefully at Su Han. What a wonderful sister!
She didn’t knowwhat else to say!
