The army returned triumphantly, and Chu Fengyuan rewarded the three armies, and the meritorious generals awarded them one by one, and it did not end until the afternoon.

Although the two brothers were together, they had no chance to speak well. When they left, Chu Fengyuan had time to pat Chu Xiangtian on the shoulder and instructed: "My mother is very worried about you. After the army outside the city has been resettled, remember to go to the palace."

Chu Xiangtian nodded and temporarily stationed outside the city with his army. These soldiers were drawn from various places. Now that the war is over, the rewards are also received, so it is time for them to return to their garrison one after another.

In order to prevent chaos, he had to sit in the camp outside the city for a few days. After the troops returned to their respective places, he could completely feel at ease to throw the things in his hands to the people below to do.

Fu Tian was not convenient to follow the army, so he went back to the Marquis' Mansion first. Zhou Chuanqing was eager to go back with Fu Tian, ​​but was forced to stay by his jealous brother-in-law to deal with the subsequent matters.

Two men who had no home looked at each other, their eyes full of disgust for each other.

***

Kanglehou Mansion.

After hearing the news of the triumphant success of the army, Fu Ji sent someone to guard the situation outside at any time so that they could immediately drive out to greet Fu Tian when he came back.

Fu Tian came back on a horse. Before he could reach the door, he saw Fu Ji and a group of servants greeted him, respectfully arranged two teams to welcome him back.

Fu Tian looked behind Fu Ji, but didn't see Fu Youqin's figure. He felt guilty and handed the reins to his servants. He pretended to be casual and asked, "Isn't my mother at home?"

Fu Ji looked a little embarrassed and hesitated for a moment, "Mrs. I seem to be... angry in the backyard."

Fu Tian's eyelids twitched and he coughed. He thought he knew what Fu Youqin was angry about.

Before going to the border, he hesitated and did not tell her the matter. In order to conceal, he even tricked the people to Sifang Town. Now the army has been in triumph, and the news of his going to the border to find people has spread, and it has even been spread so amazingly. When his mother heard the news, she must be angry.

"Mom...is she very angry?" Fu Tian asked for the news with guilt.

Fu Ji nodded and couldn't help but say a few words, "For such a big thing, the Marquis didn't tell his wife first. After the wife learned the news, she would be worried that she would not be able to eat for several days."

"But no matter what, the wife still loves you. If you admit your mistake, your wife will lose her vibe."

"I understand." Fu Tian lowered his head and strode towards Fu Youqin's yard.

Fu Youqin sat under the eaves, holding a middle garment in her hand, and heard the footsteps of the yard, looked up and turned back without hesitation, "The Marquis is back."

Fu Tian's expression became more and more distressed. His mother always called him his nickname. Now that he even called "Marquis" and he was probably very angry.

"Mom, I'm back."

Fu Tian hurried over and half-squatted beside her, "Uncle Ji said you're angry."

After taking the needle, Fu Youqin said lightly: "What's there to be angry about me? The child has grown up and has his own ideas."

Fu Tian held her arm in a coquettish way and waved her mistake obediently, "Mom, I know I was wrong, I shouldn't hide it from you."

Fu Youqin sighed a long time, looking at his cheeks that had been thinner, no matter how much he was, he couldn't get angry, "You are an adult, you can't control you whatever you want, but at least you should let me know and run to the border quietly, if..."

"Nothing happens," Fu Tian interrupted her and said with a smile: "Aren't I back now? I'll bring my daughter-in-law back intact."

Fu Youqin couldn't help but think of his big and thick "daughter-in-law" and said, "Why didn't Feng Zhang come back with you?"

Fu Tian held his chin, "I am still in the camp outside the city. I have to handle the military affairs before I can come back, and my brother-in-law is still there."

Fu Youqin compared the middle robe in front of him, and put the needle and thread into the sewing bag with satisfaction. "I asked someone to send a message to your sister. She is also worried these days."

Fu Tian nodded, "I'm done with my work, let my brother-in-law and sister come for a meal. I want to discuss something with you."

"What's the matter?" Fu Youqin was surprised.

Fu Tian pursed her lips and smiled, "I want to get married this year."

Fu Youqin looked a little hesitant, "Inside the palace..."

Fu Tian looked unworried and still smiled, "There is no problem with the empress dowager and the emperor. The difficult one is the royal family, but Xiang Tian said he will solve it."

Compared to the shyness of talking about marriage in the past, he seemed much more generous and calm, "We don't want to delay any more after so long in getting engaged."

Fu Youqin looked at him with a gentle expression. The young man who used to snuggle in her arms had grown up completely, and there was no childishness between his eyebrows and eyes, but he had already had the calmness that only adults could have.

She smiled with relief, "Then let's choose a good day and I'll have someone go see it."

"Thank you, mom."

“…”

The mother and son talked and laughed, and they gathered together intimately to discuss the details of the marriage. By the time Chu Xiangtian came back from the camp, Fu Tian had even chosen the days.

The auspicious day of the first half of the year is only one, on June 18th. It won’t be too hurrying, and there is no need to wait for a long time. Fu Tian was very satisfied. After Chu Xiangtian came back, he was also very satisfied.

"We will enter the palace together tomorrow." Chu Xiangtian hugged him lightly, with a smile between his eyebrows and eyes, "First say to the emperor's brother, and then let me know the stubborn family members."

It was just nonsense to ask for what his ancestors agreed to. It was just that the stubborn group of old men couldn't stand him getting married with a man, but they didn't dare to say anything and obstruct him, so they just found an excuse to drag him down. It happened to be the first time that Fu Shuyue's wedding was just right, but Chu Xiangtiancai didn't care. Now everything is ready. If there were anyone who dared to obstruct him, he wouldn't be polite.

The next day, the two entered the palace together and went to Changshou Palace to pay homage to the queen mother. It happened that Chu Fengyuan was there, but the atmosphere between the mother and son was a bit subtle.

After Chu Xiangtian went to the battlefield, the Empress Dowager recited scriptures and prayed for blessings every day, and never slept peacefully. Later, when he heard that Chu Xiangtian was missing, he had not had time to feel sad, he heard Chu Fengyuan say that Fu Tian had taken people to the border.

The empress dowager, who has always had a good temper, rarely got angry at the emperor and scolded him for not letting Fu Tian go to the border. If Fu Tian also had something wrong, how should she explain to her younger son?

Feng Yuan couldn't say anything about his suffering, and he had to take care of the emperor's face, so he could only bear the anger of the empress dowager. After that, the empress dowager went to the temple to recitate and fasted, chanting scriptures and praying for his two children.

It was not until Fu Tian and the others returned to Qingyang that the Empress Dowager received the news that she was willing to come back from the temple.

Seeing the two neat children, the empress dowager couldn't help but cry. She wiped the corners of her eyes with a veil. The two brothers looked at each other and were rarely at a loss. In the end, Fu Tian stepped forward and pulled the empress dowager to say a lot of good words before coaxing the man.

The queen mother pulled Fu Tian to look carefully, pinching his cheeks with some distress, "I've lost weight, have I suffered from the border?"

As she said that, she remembered the good things her eldest son did, and said with a little dissatisfaction: "The emperor shouldn't agree to you to go to the border."

Chu Fengyuan: “…”

He coughed and frequently winked at Fu Tian. He didn't want to let someone go, but one reason was that Fu Tian couldn't stop him if he ran away secretly. The other was that Fu Tian's attitude was too firm at that time. He really believed that he could find Chu Xiangtian.

It turns out that Fu Tian was right, but the empress dowager would not accept such an explanation.

When Fu Tian received his gaze, he couldn't help but smile, and repeatedly explained that he insisted on going there at that time. It was not that Chu Fengyuan didn't want to stop him, but that he couldn't stop him.

The Empress Dowager looked at her two serious-looking sons, then looked at Fu Tian, ​​who was smiling particularly likable beside her, and sighed, and she didn't feel angry with her eldest son anymore.

Fu Tian stayed in the palace for lunch. After the meal, Chu Xiangtian mentioned that he wanted to prepare for the wedding. The queen mother agreed as expected. If she said that she just didn't object, then she would not feel much different from Chu Xiangtian now.

Although Fu Tian is a man, except for this, he really can't make mistakes everywhere. He looks and family background, has a good personality and is able to live and die with his partner in critical moments. If he hadn't made a marriage with Chu Xiangtian, the threshold of Kangle Hou's Mansion would have been broken by a matchmaker.

The Empress Dowager looked at her youngest son who was happy, shook her head, and said to Chu Fengyuan: "The two men get married, and if they don't want to marry whoever they want, I'm afraid there will be people going to gossip in which house to hold the ceremony in the future..."

Chu Fengyuan and the Empress Dowager had the same idea, and immediately understood her meaning and continued: "It is better to give me a marriage ceremony to hold the ceremony in the palace."

The empress dowager nodded with satisfaction, and the marriage between them was settled.

The two stayed in the palace for two days. After leaving the palace, Chu Xiangtian went to the royal family first. His face was gloomy when he went, but when he came back, he was full of spring breeze.

The next day, the imperial edict for the marriage was at Kanglehou's mansion.

The eunuch in charge finished reading the imperial edict with a sharp voice and bowed to the two of them to express their joy.

Chu Xiangtian was in a happy mood when he was happy, and his smile never faded. He heard this and immediately stuffed him a red envelope of considerable weight. His expression was unprecedentedly kind, which scared the eunuch who was used to seeing the cold face.

After the marriage was given, news came from the royal family a few days later that it was said that the auspicious day had been calculated. When the red paper with the auspicious day was opened, it was the eighteenth of June that Fu Tian and the others wanted.

Chu Xiangtian put away the red paper and smiled proudly.

The auspicious day has been settled, and the rest is to prepare for the marriage.

The emperor gave the wedding, and the wedding ceremony was held in the palace. All trivial matters at the wedding were handed over to the palace to prepare, and the two prospective grooms were idle.

The two of them who were idle did not go out, and they were always in the house. In the end, the people outside couldn't wait and came to the door trembled.

The person who came was the manager of the Zhuangzi. In November last year, Fu Tian reclaimed a piece of land on the Zhuangzi and planted seedlings that he said were bred with new rice seedlings. This batch of seedlings was planted in the cold winter and was taken care of by the manager of the Zhuangzi.

Manager Zhuangzi originally thought it was absurd, but the seedlings planted actually survived most of the time in the cold winter. After that, the war was fierce, and Fu Tian rushed to the frontier and did not pay attention to the news on Zhuangzi.
