After Ye Fan heard this, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and muttered, "I … Was I that useless in the past? There's no need to even carry on the family line?
Ye Danqing couldn't help but fall into silence, as if it was hard for her to speak. In the end, she could only sigh and pat Ye Fan's shoulder.
"Big brother, it's not like that. Actually, I know that it's because your cultivation can't keep up that you've given up on yourself.
"You have a good heart, you're not the playboy in the eyes of others." Ye Shuangqing seriously grabbed Ye Fan's hand. leaf
Fan Xian helplessly smiled. He already understood what kind of person Ye Fan was in the past.
However, even if he was indeed useless in the past, there was no need for the royal family to choose him to be the Grand Princess' son-in-law, right?
"No need to persuade me, I'm not sad either. It's not like it's a big deal, no one is perfect." Ye Fan smiled and asked, "Then have I met the princess before? Why would the Grand Princess marry me? "
Speaking of this, Ye Xianqing and Ye Danqing looked at him speechlessly.
"I really have to talk to you about this. We brothers have seen quite a few beauties in the Rainbow Cloud Workshop, so why are we still so unrestrained towards women?
"Half of this marriage was really caused by you." Ye Danqing shook her head and sighed as she slowly explained the ins and outs of the matter.
It turned out that during a celebration before the new year, the Residence of the Northern Marquis was invited to the Imperial Garden to attend a banquet held by the royal family.
When Ye Fan followed his father to toast the members of the royal family, he saw the Grand Princess up close for the first time.
At the banquet with many people, when this fellow saw the Grand Princess' appearance, he was stunned with his wine cup in his hand. When he remembered that he wanted to toast, he was so excited that he spilled the wine on the Grand Princess' clothes!
Fortunately, at that time, the wife of the Northern Marquis, who was also Ye Fan's mother, defended her son, saying that the Grand Princess was too beautiful and shocking. It was truly an unintentional mistake, so she didn't make a big deal out of it. leaf
Fan Xian's face turned red on the spot, and he was so scared that he almost peed his pants. He continuously praised the Grand Princess for her good looks, and only then did he get over the matter.
However, this matter still spread out and became the laughing stock of the entire city. Not only did they feel that Ye Fan was indeed trash, but they also confirmed that Su Qingxue was the number one beauty of the royal family.
After all, although Ye Fan was useless, he had been in and out of the Rainbow Cloud Workshop for a long time, so ordinary beauties wouldn't be able to shock him.
The Emperor of the Underworld was already worried that the Grand Princess might not have much time left. If she couldn't get married until she died, it would be even more pitiful.
Moreover, the Eldest Princess was the eldest daughter. It was too inauspicious for her to die before she was even married.
But how could an ordinary person be worthy of the Eldest Princess? Who would be willing to marry a short-lived vase who could not bear children?
This problem, which made the Emperor of the Underworld frown, continued until the appearance of Ye Fan, which made everything clear …
Although the Young Marquis of the Residence of Northern Marquis might not be able to inherit the title of Marquis in the future based on his strength, he was still the first successor for the time being.
In addition, as a direct descendant of the Divine Dragon Clan, it just so happened that he was married to the heaven's chosen one, which could be considered as further bonding the relationship between the two families.
The key point was, Ye Fan himself, in front of everyone's eyes, praised the Grand Princess like this, causing him to be dumbfounded. The marriage bestowed by the royal family also seemed to be justified!
You were the one who took a fancy to him, and the king was kind enough to grant you a marriage. You can't just turn around and turn your back on him!
... Do you understand now? You took a fancy to the Grand Princess yourself, and even let the entire Great War Dynasty know about it!
His Majesty bestowed the princess to you, or to follow your wishes, you have to be grateful!
In this kind of situation, even if the Marquis was prepared to be punished and resisted the edict for you, there was no reason at all!
"My son has taken a fancy to me, and I admit it, but I go back on my word. That would be too disrespectful to His Majesty." Ye Danqing bitterly smiled. leaf
Fan Xian drank a mouthful of wine and nodded. If that was the case, then this princess' wife would definitely belong to him.
I don't really want to marry her, I just want to confirm my identity... Ye Fan muttered in his heart. Although thinking like this seemed to be a bit unfair to the Grand Princess, Ye Fan had no other choice. He couldn't possibly treat her as the same person just because he had the same name.
"But then again, although this marriage of yours might not last long, it's still worth it to be able to marry such a beautiful princess in this life. Don't think too much about it."
"But then again, although this marriage of yours might not last long, it's worth it to be able to marry such a beautiful princess in this life. Don't think too much about it." Ye Danqing advised.
"That's right, brother. Who knows, if we take good care of the princess, she might be able to get healthy and live a few more years?
Even if... "Even if the princess really left, Qing'er would at most not get married and would accompany big brother for the rest of her life. We siblings would also be able to be happy." Ye Xianqing said with a serious face. leaf
Fan Xian didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He thought to himself, how could it be so exaggerated? However, he really felt that this little sister was obedient and cute. He reached out his hand and caressed the girl's hair, "Don't say such depressing words. Aren't we going to have a happy event tomorrow?
"En!" Ye Xianqing smiled sweetly and started to pick up more food for Ye Fan, "Big brother, eat more. You'll be the groom tomorrow, but you won't have time to eat for the whole day …" leaf
After eating and drinking to their heart's content, the three of them returned home in the afternoon.
It wasn't that Ye Fan didn't want to see more and stroll around, it was just that he had to prepare for tomorrow's wedding.
Returning to the mansion, he discovered that compared to yesterday, the decorations were even more festive. The red carpet had already been laid out for a mile!
There were red lanterns made of prehistoric stones everywhere. If this were to be placed on Earth, it would be an extreme waste.
Of course, this kind of financial power was something that only great nobles could do. Ordinary commoners would not be able to handle.
"Young duke, you're back?" The officials of the Ministry of Rites have been waiting for you for a long time! "Uncle Shui came out to welcome him with a smile.
"Ministry of Rites? What are you here for? "Ye Fan was puzzled.
"Isn't there a need to explain some etiquette steps for tomorrow's wedding? They specially came over to demonstrate it to you!" Uncle Shui explained.
Ye Fan was helpless. It seemed that he still had a lot of rules to learn about marrying a princess. However, for Su Qingxue, he could only endure it patiently …
The officials, a man and a woman, were all genteel in speech and makeup, and they were all specially dressed in red festive clothes.
After a round of pleasantries, the middle-aged man and woman began to demonstrate the specific steps and details of the wedding ceremony to Ye Fan.
Ye Xianqing and Ye Danqing, who were at the side, didn't leave either. They watched curiously.
Originally, he thought that Ye Fan would need to spend more than half a day to remember all of these complicated royal etiquette. However, he didn't expect that after they finished demonstrating, Ye Fan would do everything according to them, without a single mistake!
The official from the Ministry of Rites revealed a surprised expression, "Young duke, could it be that you have learned it before?" leaf
Fan Xian thought to himself, with his memory, he could just casually memorize such a simple thing. What's so difficult about it? However, it was better to keep a low profile and not attract attention. Thus, he politely smiled and said, "It's still the two of you who have taught me well."
The two etiquette officials' faces immediately flushed red. They felt that this young duke of Zhenbei Marquis wasn't as bad as he had said.
Uncle Shui, Ye Xianqing, and the others, who were at the side, were all very surprised. How did Ye Fan become so eloquent after losing his memories? This really made them look at him in a new light.
Ye Fan thought that the two etiquette officials would immediately leave, but he didn't expect that the two of them wouldn't be able to move. The speed at which they turned around and left was as fast as a slow-motion replay.
You two! "Please wait a moment, my lords!" Ye Shui was very "cooperative". He took out two red packets that he had prepared a long time ago and stuffed them into the hands of the two officials.
"This..." That's not too appropriate, right? "The female official squinted her eyes and smiled, but the red packet had already been kept into the storage bracelet like a magic trick.
Ye Shui hurriedly shook her head, "A small token, a happy occasion..." Oh right, did the two of you forget a small matter? "
The two etiquette officials looked at each other and shook their heads. The male official said, "It seems …" There's nothing else. "leaf
Without saying a word, Ye Shui took out two gold ingots of high quality and stuffed them into their hands.
"You two …" This is the first time you've come to visit. This is a greeting gift, so you must accept it … "
The two etiquette officials immediately performed another magic trick, and the gold ingot disappeared.
"Hiss …" "Oh right, there's a little thing that I forgot to give to the young duke. It's here …" The male official took out a small piece of paper and gave it to Ye Shui.
After they were done, the two of them turned around and cupped their hands towards Ye Fan with a smile, then walked out like the wind.
