Those around Li Chengqian immediately bowed in greeting.

"Greetings, Your Highness!"

"Okay! Get up, everyone!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Li Chengqian slowly walked up to Su Wan, extended a hand, and softly said:

"Wan'er! Come back to the East Palace with me!"

Upon hearing this, Su Wan's heart raced, and she gave a soft "hmm" before slowly placing her delicate hand on Li Chengqian's palm.

Feeling the warmth in his palm, Li Chengqian couldn't help but smile slightly.

Li Chengqian didn't stand on ceremony. He stepped forward and swept Su Wan into his arms in a princess carry.

This sudden scene startled Su Wan.

Her face flushed red, and she gently punched Li Chengqian's chest as she spoke:

"Your Highness, this is not right."

Seeing Su Wan's shy expression, Li Chengqian couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Hahaha! What's wrong with that? I'm embracing my wife, who dares to say a bad word about you?"

Feeling the masculine aura emanating from Li Chengqian, Su Wan couldn't help but feel her body go limp.

Her little head was buried directly in Li Chengqian's chest, and her earlobes were bright red.

Li Chengqian then carried her directly towards the door.

Outside the boudoir.

Everyone was slightly surprised to see Li Chengqian carrying the Crown Princess out.

Li Tai couldn't help but move closer to Li Chengqian and say:

"Li Chengqian! This is improper; the censors will impeach you!"

However, as soon as Li Tai said this, Li Chengqian glared at him fiercely.

"You've got some nerve, haven't you? Daring to call me by my name? Call me Big Brother! Or I'll beat you up later!"

Faced with Li Chengqian's threatening words, Li Tai subconsciously touched his eye socket.

"Big...Big Brother!"

Seeing Li Tai's forced submission, Li Chengqian couldn't help but smile.

"No problem! I'll send Master Wei two baskets of spinach and a jar of fine wine. I'll see who dares to impeach me then!"

Li Tai couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly when he saw Li Chengqian's arrogant expression.

Could two baskets of spinach and a jar of fine wine really persuade Wei Zheng to serve?

Is this for real?

For a moment, Li Tai began to get restless.

This king is sending ten baskets... no... a hundred baskets of spinach!

Little did he know that Wei Zheng was willing to help Li Chengqian solely because Li Chengqian was the crown prince, and that Wei Zheng was nominally Li Chengqian's teacher.

Only spinach... well... Wei Zheng did love spinach to death, but that was a gift from Li Chengqian, who was born as his disciple.

If Li Tai really tried to bribe Wei Zheng with several baskets of spinach, he would surely be scolded to death by Wei Zheng.

Putting aside the fact that Wei Zheng was honest and upright and would never accept bribes, even if he were to accept them, what kind of good person would offer him spinach as a bribe?

Which official can't withstand a test like yours?

……

After sending Su Wan onto the bridal sedan chair, Li Chengqian rode his black horse directly towards the East Palace.

Along the way, as they passed the residences of the Duke of Wei, the Duke of Lu, and the Duke of Ying, a bridal sedan chair would join the procession.

The Eastern Palace!

Li Yuan, Li Shimin, and Empress Zhangsun had been waiting there for a long time.

"Father! Father! Is my crown crooked?"

"Guanyinbi! Look at my clothes, are they decent enough?"

Seeing her husband's nervous expression, Empress Zhangsun couldn't help but laugh.

"Your Majesty! You are perfectly fine, and why are you so nervous about Gao Ming's wedding?"

"Who said I was nervous? Am I nervous? How could I be? Absolutely not!"

Seeing his rebellious son's stubbornness, Li Yuan immediately glared at him, while Empress Zhangsun gently comforted him:

"Erlang, you weren't like this at Qingque's wedding, what's wrong with you today...?"

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin's face became somewhat unnatural.

"How can that be the same? This rebellious son is already so old! Qingque's eldest son is already a year old, and this rebellious son still doesn't have an heir. Moreover, he is the crown prince; the future of the Tang Dynasty depends on him!"

Upon hearing Li Shimin's words, Li Yuan, who was standing to the side, also nodded in agreement, a rare occurrence for him.

"You unfilial son, it's rare for you to speak like a human being. Gaoming should have given birth to a legitimate eldest son by now. I'm still waiting to hold my great-grandson."

"No! I'll go to Sun Simiao another day and ask for some medicine to properly nourish Gao Ming and the Su family girl!"

Just then, Canyue rushed in.

"Your Majesty! Your Highness! They're here! They're here! His Highness's entourage has arrived!"

Upon hearing this, the group immediately became flustered.

When Li Chengqian carried Su Wan in, he saw his old man and the others sitting upright with serious expressions.

The others were slightly taken aback when they saw their son carrying Su Wan in.

"You unfilial son! What are you doing? Put it down! You haven't even paid your respects to heaven and earth yet! What kind of behavior is this?!"

Seeing his old man's exasperated expression, Li Chengqian said nonchalantly:

"My wife, I can hold her however I want! Hehehe!"

Although he said it, Li Chengqian still carefully put Su Wan down.

Upon seeing this, Su Wan quickly covered her face with a fan, her little face flushed as she bowed to Li Shimin and the others!

"Your daughter-in-law greets Your Majesty, Father, and Mother!"

Li Shimin, who was originally looking at Li Chengqian with uncontrollable rage, instantly revealed a kind smile upon hearing Su Wan's voice.

"Oh! No need for formalities, we're all family from now on!"

"Exactly! No need for formalities! We're all buddies!"

Li Chengqian chimed in, but Li Shimin frowned and glared at him fiercely.

"Shut up! Who gave you the right to speak here?"

Then he turned to look at Su Wan and gave her a kind smile.

Li Chengqian was dumbfounded when he saw his old man suddenly looking kind and gentle.

No?

What does that mean?

Are they biological children?

Looking at Li Shimin's face, which was almost beaming with joy, Li Chengqian thought to himself that he had never seen his old man smile at him so kindly in his life!

Double standards, huh?!

……

"I bow to Heaven and Earth!"

As the voice of the crescent moon rang out, Li Chengqian and Su Wan bowed deeply towards the door!

"Bowing to the parents a second time!"

Seeing his unfilial son and daughter-in-law bowing to him, Li Shimin couldn't help but feel a sense of relief.

My rebellious son has finally grown up!

Empress Zhangsun, standing to the side, was so moved that tears almost streamed down her face.

For a long time, she believed that her eldest son liked men.

After all, what good person isn't married by the time they're eighteen?

Other people's sons are already 15 or 16 years old and have kids!

However, seeing her own brat get married, a huge weight was finally lifted from Empress Zhangsun's heart.

"Husband and wife bow to each other!!!"

Li Chengqian and Su Wan bowed to each other.

From then on, he was the husband and she was the wife, living in harmony and growing old together.

"Send them to the bridal chamber!!!"

As the last sound of the crescent moon faded, Chang Le, Yu Zhang, Gao Yang, and the others who had been waiting for a long time hurriedly stepped forward with smiles.
