Matchmaker Qian asked people to take some candies, silk flowers, etc. and scattered them out. Everyone got something to like and something to talk about. After a while, they all left happily.

Seeing the crowd gradually dispersed, Han Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

She is not used to being scrutinized by so many people.

Han Xuan and Xiao Yihan talked in a friendly manner. This time was different from the last time. They were formally accepted as the prince. Although he was about to become the new son-in-law, the prince's identity still came first, so Han Xuan's The attitude is very respectful.

Matchmaker Qian interjected from time to time, and occasionally looked at Han Yi with envy and regret, and Han Yi didn't know what she was thinking.

Qin'er left, and soon came over with tea.

Han Xuan and Xiao Yihan took both, Qin'er sent it to Matchmaker Qian, bowed and said, "Ma'am drink tea."

Matchmaker Qian said with a smile, "Girl, I can't drink this tea."

Qin'er glanced at Han Yi with some puzzlement.

Han Yi didn't know either.

Matchmaker Qian explained with a smile: "Matchmakers are not allowed to drink tea when they enter the house for the first time. There is a special point here. Drinking tea will 'dilute the marriage', which is unlucky."

Qin'er's complexion changed, and she quickly took a few steps back: "Eldest young master, lord, young lady, this servant doesn't know the rules, it's my servant's fault."

Han Xuan said: "Those who don't know don't blame, pay more attention before doing things next time."

Qin'er nodded quickly and took the tea away.

Xiao Qi'er was wearing an extremely luxurious formal attire, and was standing in front of the altar with a serious and solemn expression.

Gong Lixi stood not far behind him, looking around.

Only King Qi was missing.

She shook her head lightly, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Qi Wang is not here, there must be some delay."

Gong Lixi frowned: "Why didn't he come to such an important occasion? Wouldn't it be another promise?"

Luo Xing didn't answer.

Minister of Rites Zhu Xiu took a step forward and said loudly: "The auspicious time has come, please ask the prince to worship the heavens and ask the ancestors!"
