My hotel is full of emperors throughout history.

The courtyard fell silent.

The moonlight shone quietly.

The night breeze was blowing gently.

The lanterns under the eaves swayed gently.

Li Lizhi looked at him, at his earnest eyes, at his profile in the moonlight, at his slightly trembling eyelashes—

Her eyes suddenly felt a little sore.

It's not sadness.

It's that feeling of being completely filled with something.

"I do."

Her voice was very soft, almost inaudible.

But Chen Mo heard it.

He smiled.

He was laughing like a fool.

The emperor, who was eavesdropping behind the door, laughed so hard that he also started to chuckle foolishly.

Zhu Yuanzhang covered his mouth, tears welling up in his eyes.

"It worked! It worked! We knew it would work!"

Liu Che slapped his thigh, looking pleased:

"Good! Good! My wait was worthwhile!"

Zhu Di couldn't suppress the smile on his lips.

A faint smile appeared on Ying Zheng's face, which had remained unchanged for millennia.

Although Li Shimin's expression was complicated, he still let out a long breath.

Li Yuan patted him on the shoulder without saying a word, but the smile on his face was impossible to hide.

Empress Ma and Wei Zifu looked at each other and smiled.

Empress Zhangsun gazed at the two figures outside the door, her eyes slightly reddening.

Liu Ju and Fusu exchanged a smile and both gently shook their heads.

Zhu Biao also breathed a sigh of relief and a smile appeared on his face.

Zhu Gaochi munched on sunflower seeds with a smile, looking like he knew it all along.

Little Sizi finally broke free from Li Chengqian's grasp and shouted loudly.

"Sister is smiling! Manager Chen is smiling too! What are they smiling about?"

"Keep your voice down! Or you'll get caught!"

"It's been discovered!"

Li Lizhi suddenly turned her head.

Then, at a speed visible to the naked eye, her face changed from crimson to bright red, and from bright red to—purple red.

At the entrance of the courtyard, a row of heads were crowded together.

Each one was laughing more heartily than the other.

Only Li Shimin's expression was extremely complex.

Li Chengqian stood at the back of the crowd, holding Xiao Sizi in his arms, his expression extremely complex—a mixture of blessings for his sister, complicated feelings for Chen Mo, and a whole lot more…

Ruined!

What should I do if my browsing history is seen?

The little ox had its mouth covered, its eyes wide open, grinning foolishly.

"Hehehe! From now on, I can spend every day with Little Saccharomyces!"

Li Lizhi looked at the large group of people, at the expressions of relief, teasing, and blessings in their eyes—

Her face turned redder.

It was so red it looked like it was about to bleed.

She became so famous that she wanted to disappear into the ground.

"you……"

She opened her mouth, but her voice was so soft it was barely audible.

"When did you...?"

"From the moment you told Manager Chen to leave!"

Zhu Yuanzhang responded casually, his smile as bright as a flower.

"We've been listening here the whole time!"

Li Lizhi: ……

Chen Mo: ...

The two exchanged a glance, both seeing the same meaning in each other's eyes—

It’s over.

The society is dead.

Liu Ju walked over, smiling gently, and cupped his hands in greeting to Chen Mo.

"Congratulations, Manager Chen."

Fusu followed and said gently, "Congratulations, Manager Chen."

Zhu Biao also came over.

Congratulations!

Li Chengqian also congratulated Chen Mo while placing his hand on Chen Mo's shoulder, pressing down hard, and whispering in Chen Mo's ear.

"How did Lizhi know?"

Chen Mo turned his head. Although Li Chengqian was smiling, his smile seemed forced.

"Don't ask me. Your grandfather was in the hospital at the time, and I was worried he'd be bored, so I let him play with your phone for a while. Who would have thought..."

Li Chengqian: ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

Li Chengqian: Chen Mo, I...

At the same time, Liu Che also came over.

"Manager Chen, when are you inviting us to your wedding?"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately perked up.

Zhu Yuanzhang was the first to respond.

"Yes, yes, yes! When is the wedding? We're really looking forward to attending the wedding banquet!"

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin walked over and said with a serious expression.

"My daughter cannot be wronged. The wedding must be a grand affair!"

Li Yuan walked over with a smile and patted Chen Mo on the shoulder.

"Young man, you have good taste! My granddaughter is a fine girl!"

Li Lizhi was overwhelmed by the barrage of questions, her face turning bright red.

She lowered her head, wishing she could bury her face in her chest.

Chen Mo's face also turned red.

He looked at the emperor, the crown prince, and the princes, and at their expectant, teasing, or serious gazes.

Suddenly I realized—damn it, I should have found a secluded spot earlier!

"that……"

He opened his mouth, his voice slightly hoarse.

"I haven't thought about the wedding yet..."

Then--

Ying Zheng said with a disdainful look.

"What's the big deal! Let me see, there's no time like the present! I think it's in the next few days! Perfect timing, it's the New Year, double happiness!"

Liu Che nodded leisurely.

"I also think it's good. The first month of the lunar calendar is auspicious for weddings."

Zhu Di nodded slightly, a smile playing on his lips.

"It really is a good day."

Li Yuan looked at Li Shimin with a smile, then at Chen Mo and Li Lizhi, his face so full of wrinkles that he almost burst out laughing.

"Excellent! I can still witness my granddaughter's marriage. I will try my best to live to see my great-grandchild born!"

Li Shimin stood in the center of the crowd, his face showing a hint of drunkenness, a smile, and something else he couldn't quite put his finger on.

He looked at Chen Mo with a scrutinizing gaze, a hint of satisfaction, and a warning that said, "If you dare to betray her, I will not forgive you."

Chen Mo stiffened under that gaze.

But he held Li Lizhi's hand and did not let go.

"that……"

He spoke, his voice slightly hoarse.

"Isn't this... a bit too fast?"

"quick?"

Li Shimin raised an eyebrow.

"Not pleasant. When I married Guanyinbi, it took only three days from our first meeting to our wedding."

As he spoke, he glanced at Empress Zhangsun.

Empress Zhangsun stood to the side, a faint smile on her lips, and did not deny it.

Chen Mo: ...

Li Lizhi stood beside him, her face flushed red.

She kept her head down, not daring to look at anyone.

But the hand that Chen Mo was holding did not break free.

Empress Ma walked over with a smile and took Li Lizhi's other hand.

"Silly girl, what are you shy about? A girl will get married eventually. This is a joyous occasion!"

Wei Zifu smiled and nodded.

"Manager Chen is a good man, you have good taste."

Empress Zhangsun finally stepped forward.

She stood before her daughter, looking at her flushed face and those eyes that held such joy—

She reached out and gently brushed the stray hairs from her daughter's forehead.

"Beautiful".

Her voice was very soft and gentle.

Li Lizhi raised her head and looked at her mother.

Empress Zhangsun looked at her, her eyes filled with relief, reluctance, and something else she couldn't quite put her finger on.

"You've grown up."

She said softly.

Li Lizhi's eyes suddenly felt a little sore.

"Mother..."

Empress Zhangsun gently embraced her and whispered in her ear.

"Manager Chen is a good man. Mother, don't worry."

Li Lizhi didn't speak, but buried her head in her mother's arms and nodded gently.

Over there, a group of emperors were already engaged in a heated discussion.

"Which day in the first month of the lunar calendar is the best?" Zhu Yuanzhang counted on his fingers. "The fifth? The eighth? The fifteenth?"

Liu Che said leisurely, "The fifteenth is the Lantern Festival, a brightly lit day, a truly auspicious day."

Zhu Di nodded: "The Lantern Festival is indeed a good one."

Ying Zheng suddenly spoke, his voice calm.

"The eighteenth day of the first lunar month."

Everyone looked at him.

Ying Zheng remained expressionless and continued.

"According to my calendar, that day is an auspicious day, suitable for marriage."

Everyone: ...

Once the First Emperor spoke, who dared to object?

After all, if we're talking about seniority, this person is the oldest.
