Chapter 152 When will the marriage be granted?
As a result, Wanyin fell into a dilemma and began to doubt her true feelings for Zhan Shijun. At the same time, Zhan Shijun gradually realized that his feelings for Wanyin had become deeper and deeper. In the end, he resolutely made up his mind to find a suitable time to tell her his heartfelt love.
On a sunny day, Zhan Shijun summoned up the greatest courage in his life and sincerely invited Wanyin to go for a walk by the lake to enjoy the scenery. The two walked slowly side by side, and the breeze gently brushed their hair and ruffled the lake water. As they walked, Zhan Shijun stopped, took a deep breath, and then stared into Wanyin's eyes, as if he wanted to see the truest thoughts in her heart through her clear eyes. Then, in a low and firm voice, he spoke out the deep love that had been buried in his heart without reservation.
After listening to Zhan Shijun's heartfelt and sincere confession, Wanyin felt her heart pounding and panicked. She had never expected to receive such deep affection and was at a loss for a moment. She didn't know how to deal with this sudden love offensive, let alone how to respond to the other party.
Wanyin's pretty face instantly flushed, as tempting as a ripe apple. She lowered her head shyly, fiddling with the corners of her clothes with her hands, her heart was a mess, chaotic and disorganized. Zhan Shijun stared at her shy and lovely appearance, and whispered softly: "Wanyin, I have admired you for a long time, not just out of a momentary impulse. I know that emotional matters are very important and must be treated with caution, so I am willing to spend time to prove my sincerity to you." After speaking, he slowly stretched out his broad palm and gently placed it on Wanyin's thin shoulders.
Wanyin raised her face timidly and met Zhan Shijun's sincere gaze. She felt her heart pounding and became more and more flustered. She bit her lips lightly, hesitated for a moment, and finally mustered up the courage to say: "Shijun, I... I still need some time to think carefully. This is a matter related to my lifelong happiness, and it is difficult to make a rash decision." Zhan Shijun nodded to show his understanding, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a doting smile, and said softly: "I know, I am willing to wait for your answer. Even if the sea dries up and the rocks crumble, I will wait by your side."
Then, the two of them continued to stroll along the lakeside, enjoying the quiet and peaceful time. Although neither of them mentioned their love affair again, their hearts had become closer.
The frequent contact between Wanyin and Zhan Shijun made Zhan Shuo and Emperor Tiansheng start to pay attention to the relationship between the two. Although Zhan Shijun was not as talented and eye-catching as his elder brother Zhan Shixuan, as the legitimate son of Zhan Shuo, he was destined to take over the family business of the Zhenguo Mansion in the future. If Wanyin could marry him, it would be a very happy marriage.
Therefore, Emperor Tiansheng decided to go to the Queen Mother's palace in person to discuss the matter with her. After hearing the news, the Queen Mother thought for a moment and then smiled: "That's great! I have always felt that Wanyin is smart and polite, and she and Shijun are a perfect match."
After hearing this, Emperor Tiansheng nodded slightly to show his agreement, and said softly: "That's great! Then, mother, when do you think it would be more appropriate to hold such a palace banquet?" His eyes were wise and deep, as if he was thinking about something.
The Queen Mother continued to stroke the smooth beads in her hand slowly, with a faint smile on her lips, and said slowly: "According to my opinion, the eighth day of next month is a good day for banqueting guests. It is also the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, and such a beautiful scene is indeed a gift from heaven. By then, the palace will be decorated with lanterns and all the ministers will be present. We can also take this opportunity to carefully examine whether the relationship between the two is sincere and deep. If everything goes well, it would be wonderful to grant them marriage on the spot. This will not only create a happy story, but also add a bit of joy to this prosperous era, filling the entire palace with laughter and a harmonious atmosphere."
