Chapter 1169 As long as you don't do anything to betray me

He was very happy to be able to marry Ranran.

But if Ranran is not doing this willingly, then he is unwilling to force her.

He only hoped that Ranran would always be happy, free, and unburdened by anything.

Qiao Ran looked back at him and shook her head:

"No! I have my own opinions and won't just agree to marry someone because of someone's pestering or pleading. I agreed because I want to. I want to be with you because I feel relaxed and unconstrained with you. If there's only one person in this world who is most suitable for me, it must be you."

Upon receiving affirmation from his beloved, Mo Beihan's handsome face flushed with excitement.

He gripped Qiao Ran's hand tightly, excitedly confirming:

"Ranran, is that really what you think? Are you really willing to marry me, spend your life with me, and never be apart?"

Instead of the previously mentioned marriage by agreement?

Qiao Ran's smiling face turned serious, and she nodded solemnly:

"As long as you don't do anything to betray me."

"No! I would never do what you did! I swear! You are my only wife in this life. I will never have any concubines, maids, or mistresses, and I will never touch a prostitute! As long as you don't drive me away, I am willing to stay by your side for the rest of my life and protect you with my life!"

"Okay, I understand your feelings."

This fool has confessed his feelings countless times, as if afraid she would forget, expressing his feelings again and again, each time with such eagerness and sincerity that it's as if he wants to offer his heart to her.

When the two returned to the Imperial Study, the two elders inside had already discussed the wedding date and settled some wedding arrangements.

"I had the Imperial Astronomical Bureau analyze your birth dates and choose the most auspicious day for your wedding. The wedding date is set for the eighth day of the fifth month next year. Are you willing to accept this?"

Emperor Jingwu looked at Qiao Ran with affection, mainly to seek the opinion of his future granddaughter-in-law.

As for his own grandson, there's no need to even ask; he couldn't wait for him to be born as soon as possible!

Qiao Ran nodded: "Thank you, Grandfather! I'm so grateful for your concern!"

The Emperor clapped his hands with delight:

"That's good, that's good! I'm glad you agree! We still have six months, so we can start preparing for the wedding. But don't worry, I'll have the best embroiderers in the palace prepare your wedding dress. You just need to sew the last few stitches."

Qiao Ran was very touched that the old man had been so considerate of her.

However, she still politely declined:

"Thank you, Your Majesty! But I can prepare my own wedding dress. I think my mother and aunts would love to prepare it for me themselves."

The Emperor smiled broadly:

"Alright, alright. I forgot that your Immortal Valley has a clothing workshop. Okay, you can prepare your own wedding dress. If you need any help, just tell Han'er and I will send Steward Zhou and the palace maids to help you."

"Thank you, Grandfather!"

After leaving the palace, the emperor sent a palace carriage to take the father and daughter home, along with two carriages of valuable gifts.

Back in the valley, everyone eagerly awaited the arrival of the carriage at the village entrance. As soon as the carriage entered the village, firecrackers and drums rang out.

It was a rare occasion that the entire Qiao family had been away for over a year, and the whole village had been eagerly awaiting their return.

They were delayed for half a year before returning, and everyone was very worried. Now that they have all returned safely, the whole village is naturally overjoyed.

A feast was set up in the street, with meat dishes such as beef, mutton, pork, and fish contributed by the whole village, as well as vegetables and fruits grown by themselves. The wines were homemade rice wine, fruit wine, and flower wine, and there was also fruit juice for the children.
