With a warehouse full of supplies, I stood alone as king in this chaotic world, gun in hand.

"Alright." Nangong Wu nodded in agreement. "From now on, you can cook in your own courtyard. Just make a list of whatever ingredients you want to eat and give it to Steward Fang; he'll have someone buy them for you." "Thank you, Princess!"

The dozen or so people were very happy.

Adlin stood up and led his men away.

"Eileen, take this vial of blood and have it tested to see what toxic components it contains." Nangong Wu handed Adeline's vial of blood to Eileen for analysis.

"Okay." Eileen took the small tube and slipped into the space.

Nangong Wu carried the child and went to the Jade Courtyard to see Huo Jing.

Her father had already undergone leg surgery, and in order to hold a wedding for Li Cheng and Li Shuang, she decided to make a trip to the Nine Nether Gate.

Two days later, Nangong Wu performed Huo Jing's first X-ray examination.

The examination results showed that the fracture was in a stable position with no displacement, and no complications had occurred in the past few days.

Tomorrow is the wedding day of Li Cheng and Li Shuang.

When Li Shuang got married at the Prince's Mansion, Steward Fang had already ordered people to hang red lanterns and red ribbons in the front yard and outside the main gate of the mansion.

Nangong Wu made a special trip to see the house she had bought for them.

When she arrived at her destination, she got off the carriage and looked up. She saw a brand-new double "囍" character pasted on the gate of the mansion, and red silk flowers tied around the necks of the stone lions on both sides.

Red silk curtains hung above the gate of the mansion, and even the threshold was painted red. On the huge plaque were the two large, gold-stamped characters "Luo Mansion".

Li Cheng's original surname was Luo, but now that he is going to establish his own household and get married, Huo Jing has asked him to revert to his original name.

After Li Feng took up his post at the border, Nangong Wu had Li Cheng take over his position as the leader of the Flying Feather Guard. Together with Li Shuang, they would manage the Flying Feather Guard, be responsible for the security of the Zhenyuan Prince's Mansion, and handle all affairs for her, including matters in the court and the martial arts world.

Although Luo Licheng was only the leader of the Flying Feather Guard, he had been on the battlefield and killed enemies. When it came time to reward his merits, he was appointed as a fourth-rank general by the court and belonged to the Zhenyuan Army. He was a proper military officer in the court.

Nangong Wu led Aiqi into the Luo residence, where they found it decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, a stark contrast to when the house was first purchased.

Luo Licheng had been busy in his own residence during the day these past few days. When he heard that Nangong Wu had arrived, he hurriedly ran out to greet her.

"Your Highness, you've arrived!"

"Come and see how the house is decorated." Nangong Wu looked him up and down, then nodded. "He's starting to look like the head of the household."

Li Cheng was a little embarrassed by her praise, "I owe everything I have today to Your Highness..."

When the mansion was purchased, many things were old. The cost of renovation, purchasing new furniture and items, and the banquet for the wedding day alone amounted to more than 200,000 taels of silver, all of which were paid for by the princess.

"I won't stand on ceremony." Nangong Wu waved her hand at him. "I've always considered Li Shuang my older sister. You two should treat her well after your wedding. If you dare to let her suffer even the slightest grievance, I won't forgive you."

Upon leaving, he immediately tensed up, "This subordinate dares not..."

"That's right, you wouldn't dare." Nangong Wu walked towards the backyard. "Let's go see your new house first."

"Princess, please come this way." Li Cheng hurriedly led the way.

Today, Nangong Wu looked around the entire Luo residence and felt that something was missing from the furnishings of each place. She asked Ai Qi to write it down so that when they returned to the Prince's Mansion, the steward could arrange for someone to buy it and deliver it to the Luo residence.

As Nangong Wu's personal bodyguard, Li Shuang lived with her in the west wing of Zuimei Courtyard.

Now that Li Shuang is about to get married, Nangong Wu asked her to stay in a secluded courtyard in the East District a few days ago, but she refused to go until tonight.

Because the bride had to get up at the hour of Yin (3-5 AM) to dress up, Li Shuang moved into that courtyard.

The next day was the day Luo Licheng married Li Shuang.

Nangong Wu passed away at the hour of Yin.

She invited two palace maids to begin dressing Li Shuang.

The ladies of the court who had connections with the Zhenyuan Prince's Mansion also came to add to Li Shuang's makeup. The Princess Consort of Li, the Princess Consort of Mu, and the Lady of Chengping Marquis also came with Wu Jingting's newlywed wife.

Starting from the hour of Yin (3-5 AM), a steady stream of court ladies and wives came to add to the dowry, making the procession no less grand than that of a high-ranking official marrying off his daughter.

"Crackling... crackling..."

A burst of firecrackers sounded outside the gate of the Prince's Mansion.

"The groom has come to pick up the bride!" someone shouted.

"The groom is here! Quickly cover the bride with the bridal veil." A palace maid picked up a red bridal veil and covered Li Shuang with it.

"Princess..." Li Shuang grabbed Nangong Wu, who was standing next to her, with both hands, looking a little nervous.

"Don't be nervous." Nangong Wu patted her hand gently and smiled, "We'll all be attending the ceremony later, so you can relax and be a good bride."

"The groom has arrived to pick up the bride!"

Outside the courtyard gate, Luo Licheng, dressed in a red wedding robe, entered the courtyard surrounded by a group of court nobles and Flying Feather Guards.

Li Shuang stood in the room, waiting, supported by two palace maids.

Li Zhan suddenly rushed in, blocking the doorway with his body, and shouted to everyone:

"Speaking of Li Shuang, she is also our sister. Li Cheng, if you want to marry our sister today, recite three love poems to express your love, otherwise don't even think about taking the bride away."

"Read it quickly, read it quickly!" the people behind Li Cheng shouted.

Li Cheng remained calm, a sly smile playing on his lips. "Since it's a love poem, I should only recite it to my wife on our wedding night. Reciting it to you now, does it still count as a love poem?"

"Hahaha..." A burst of laughter rang out from the surroundings.

"Alright, we'll read it out when we get to the bridal chamber. We'd like to hear it too."

"You just can't read it, can you?" Li Zhan knew he was very slippery. "Fine, you don't have to read a love poem, you can read something else."

"Read it quickly! Read it quickly!" The people around them started clamoring again.

"Alright!" Nangong Wu rushed over to defuse the situation. "Let's take the bride away first, so as not to miss the auspicious time."

Li Zhan's eyes darted around, and he walked into the house, smiling at Li Shuang, "Sister Shuang, let your brother carry you to the bridal sedan chair!"

"Go away." Li Cheng shoved Li Zhan aside. "I'll carry my bride myself."

"Hahaha……"

Another burst of laughter erupted from the surrounding area.

"Li Cheng, aren't you being a little too jealous? Li Shuang is our sister too! Li Zhan can carry her to the bridal sedan chair without any problem!" A Flying Feather Guard joked with him.

"If you want to carry her, go find your own wives." Li Cheng smiled and pushed the person away, then cupped his hands in a respectful gesture to Nangong Wu, "Princess."

"No need for formalities!" Nangong Wu raised her hand slightly. "Now that you're here, carry your bride on your back! Don't miss the auspicious time."

Li Cheng looked at Li Shuang, who was covered with a red veil, and smiled. He picked her up and strode out of the room.

"Let's go and watch the ceremony together!" Nangong Wu said to the group of princesses and ladies in the room.

"Okay, let's go together."
