The next morning, Yang Mengchen sent for Yuwen Qianqian and her mother, had a talk with Yuwen Qianqian in the study for nearly two hours, and then let Long Yuyao and Yuwen Qianqian have a talk for nearly an hour. As for what the three of them discussed, nobody knew.
Three days later, the Emperor decreed that Yuwen Qianqian would marry Long Yuyao as the Official Wife of the Royal Grandson, and the wedding was scheduled for the twenty-eighth of October the following year.
As the Prospective Wife of the Crown Prince, Yuwen Qianqian naturally could not return to the Border city; Lady Yuwen followed Yang Mengchen's advice, sent a letter to her husband, and also stayed behind, firstly to prepare her daughter's dowry, and secondly to teach her daughter etiquette and propriety.
