Chapter 457: Lively Wedding Scene
Time flies, autumn turns to winter, the first light snow of early winter falls, and the sound of gongs and drums deafens in the Princess's Mansion and Lord Fan's Mansion.

"Have you heard? Today is the day when the youngest fifth-rank official gets married."

"I've heard about it a long time ago. She's a woman who has been with Lord Fan for many years. She's gentle and virtuous, and is deeply loved by Mother Fan."

"Does she have a son? Lord Fan is an official appointed by the court, why would he marry a woman with a child?"

"Maybe the child was Master Fan's, but Master Fan didn't want to marry her at the time, so she used the child to make Master Fan change his mind."

"Hush! You can't say that! Lord Fan is innocent, and this girl must be innocent too. Haven't you heard? Lord Fan asked the princess to marry her off in person!"

"Oh my god, I've never heard of this. This princess is a favorite of the emperor. To be personally sent to marry by her, this girl must be an extraordinary person!"

"Not really. I heard that the princess treats this girl very well. Not only does she provide her with good food and drink, she also calls her sister!"

"Ah? Doesn't that mean this girl is old?"

"You don't know this, do you? That's because our eldest princess is young and hasn't reached the age of marriage yet."

"Hey, hurry to the gate of the Princess's mansion. The Princess is giving out wedding money! She said that today is the day my sister is getting married and she wants to celebrate with the people!"

"Go, go, go!"

The gate of the Princess's mansion was filled with people from the capital who were waiting to pick up the wedding money. Yang Jinfan asked the servants and maids to carry out the prepared copper coins, twenty baskets in total.

OMG!

The eldest princess is so generous. There is no powerful family in the whole of Beijing who is willing to spend so much money on a wedding. The girl who is getting married today must be of great background to be valued so much by the eldest princess.

The aristocratic families also got the news soon. The eldest princess spent a huge amount of money to marry her sister, and the people scrambled for money.

"Humph, Fan Zizheng is really good at climbing up the social ladder!"

"You have to admire him for being able to climb such a high branch! His wife has been with him for more than two years without any status or position. Who among the powerful people in Beijing doesn't know about this? He is an outsider official with no foundation, so he can't climb up to the eldest princess who has no foundation either."

"Don't you call yourself a clean person? You actually managed to get close to the emperor's favorite person. Even if she has no background, she is still the real princess. She has the skills to cure diseases and save lives. To be honest, who in our family doesn't have a headache or fever? If you encounter a terminal illness, you can't guarantee that you won't ask the princess for help!"

"She can cure terminal illnesses? I don't believe it. She's just a country girl. Maybe it's just a coincidence that she can write a prescription to cure the plague. Maybe her skills are not as good as those of the doctors in the capital!"

"The plague prescription is a coincidence? How come no one in the entire Imperial Hospital could come up with it by coincidence? What about the flood in Jizhou? Who in the court can solve it?"

"Well, after all, there are geniuses who are rare in a century. It's just that Lord Fan is lucky. He happened to meet this young genius when he was about to die."

"Yeah, how could he be so lucky!"

Everyone gnashed their teeth, wishing that they were the only one to catch the eldest princess's eye. All the noble families in the capital were not as good as a fifth-rank official with no foundation.

Who wouldn’t be jealous?!
Yang Jinfan was all smiles as he watched the maids and servants throwing money around. He ordered everyone in the mansion to put on festive new clothes. Even the horses in the stables were given new hooves, and red silk was hung on the carriages for travel. The whole mansion was filled with joy.

"Happy wedding!"

"Congratulations to the eldest princess on her marriage. I wish you a long and happy marriage and a son soon!" Yang Jinfan responded politely, "Thank you for your blessings. There are guests in front of the eldest princess's mansion today, but there is a long banquet in the backyard. You can all come and enjoy the food. Don't have any conflicts. Eat and drink well!"

"Good! Long live the Princess!"

The children on the street shouted even louder, especially the half-grown beggars. Since the princess didn't mind their background, no one dared to make trouble and they could go in and have a full meal.

Many people have already walked towards the backyard under the guidance of the servants. They have heard that the meals in the Princess's Mansion are the most delicious and nutritious. Every meal is the top standard of Zuixianju. Today they are lucky enough to have a taste of it.

It's strange to say, the owner of Zuixianju is unwilling to give face to the emperor, but is surprisingly fond of the eldest princess, so that even those who usually can't eat at Zuixianju can have a taste of it.

However, although most of them were not prominent, they were respectable families with enough food and clothing. They could not eat the eldest princess's food for free, so they spontaneously went to the front yard of the princess's mansion to give gifts, and then went around to the back yard for the buffet.

There is a big wedding happening in the Princess' Mansion today. The Emperor is worried that no one is in charge of the affairs of the Princess' Mansion, so he specially sent several of the most famous wives of the Dukes in the capital to assist the Princess. There will be a large flow of people at the banquet, so it is General Gu, who has just returned to the court recently and is in the limelight, who is here to maintain order.

Many people did not dare to go in because of the scene, but thinking that the powerful people in the Princess's Mansion would not dare to do anything to them, they still went in bravely.

"Junior sister, the whole capital knows that the eldest princess is marrying my sister, and everyone is rushing to share in the joy."

Feng Yiyao was still wearing the orchid mask and sitting in a wheelchair, appearing in front of everyone with confidence.

No one dared to look at him any longer. They were not surprised to see the Sixth Prince there. This was a good opportunity to get close to the Eldest Princess. Who knows, the Eldest Princess might be so happy that she would agree to treat his leg.

Yang Jinfan raised his lips. This was exactly the effect he wanted. Let's see who would dare to look at the girl clearly from now on.

Miss Chu was being helped to dress up in her room. When she heard about the lively scenes in the front and back yards, she was surprised and moved.

"My beautiful mother, my sister is so amazing! She knows a lot of dignitaries and has prepared a lot of delicious food, hiccups~"

Little Fuyou was enjoying the snacks that had just been delivered to him.

Since coming here, he has different delicious food every day and has gained weight. His sister and other little sisters are super, super nice to him and mom, and he wants to follow his sisters forever!

Chu Yuwei is gentle and charming, and she looks even more dazzling in red makeup. She looks around with her beautiful eyes and touches the little guy's head lovingly.

"Fuyou, you must remember how good your sister is to us. When you grow up, you must repay your sister! You must also repay your mother. She is our benefactor."

"Yes, mother, I know. It was my sister who saved us, gave us delicious food, and gave me many fun things. She made sure we were not bullied in the capital. My sister is the best person in the world!"

"Correct!"

'The best man' Yang Jinfan was holding a glass of wine in the front yard to toast the guests from all directions. His refreshing and lively laughter infected the people around him. Regardless of whether they had any grudges with them, they clinked their glasses and laughed away all grudges.

Everyone sighed that there had not been such a pure and lively banquet in the capital for a long time.

How long has it been? It almost never appears.

The aristocratic families have strict rules and regulations, and no girl in the boudoir would come out to toast without being stage-frightened.
