September 15, 100th year of the New Calendar, August 8, the Little Princess' Mansion.

Because it was a secret wedding, I only invited my close relatives, and after getting married in the church, I simply set up a banquet.

Not solemn, it even seems shabby.

However, for the two newcomers, it is extremely happy.

According to customs, after worshiping the heaven and earth, they became husband and wife. Although there was a royal pardon, according to folk customs, Zhang Xiaoqing should be called Bai Zhang in the future.

Don’t forget that the little princess has not given up her civil status.

As for the wedding night, everything is simple.

If you want to say, what is uncomfortable in your heart is Bai Zhizhan.

"After this battle is over, I will wait for me to come back from the front and hold another battle." Bai Zhizhan really didn't know what to say, after all, what the bridal chamber should do was done a few months ago.

"Second wedding?"

"Of course not the second time, it's a reissue, it's..."

"I'm very satisfied that I can marry you."

"Xiaoqing..."

"In a few months, you will be a father."

"What?"

Bai Zhizhan didn't react at once and felt that he had heard it wrong.

"I only know, I'm..."

"That time...you mean, you're pregnant!?"

Zhang Xiaoqing nodded, looking very shy.

Only then did Bai Zhizhan get excited.

It was the time half a month ago that he just flew back from that ball port.

As the saying goes, a small separation is like a newlywed.

That night, I was excited to send a shot, but I didn't expect it to hit it.

Although excited, Bai Zhizhan did not forget himself.

However, the bridal chamber can only be done.

After they got engaged, they lived together. The so-called bridal chamber is just a traditional saying, and young people nowadays don’t eat this at all.

Even Bai Zhizhan and Zhang Xiaoqing are not considered young people.

That night, Bai Zhizhan did not fall asleep at all.

However, it was not just a matter of being asleep.

The imperial capital, Haikun Mansion.

After Liu Changhe finished speaking, the old man sitting upright on the Grand Master's chair nodded slightly.

He is Liu Chongcheng, the legitimate grandson of Haikun Gong Liu Zhentang, the current patriarch of the Liu family, and one of the most powerful figures in the empire.

At the beginning of the year, he went to find the emperor and proposed marriage to the emperor.

Although he was blocked by the emperor with the imperial edict from the empress dowager, Liu Chongcheng did not give up and stayed in Haikun Mansion in the imperial capital and did not return to his hometown in the south.

The little princess is just engaged, not a big wedding.

Even though young people are very unrestrained and live together after getting engaged and do things between men and women, what the Liu family wants is not a virginity, but the title of the royal relative.

But now, this dream has been shattered.

This is what Liu Changhe started talking about. The little princess had secretly held a wedding with Bai Zhizhan.

According to the information Liu Changhe found out, the emperor issued a secret edict, conferring Bai Zhizhan as Prince Yu, and giving all the titles corresponding to the son-in-law.

However, it has not been announced yet.

The wedding originally scheduled to be held before the Double Ninth Festival is still under preparation and it is not said that it will be cancelled.

The key point is that the royal family has not announced that the little princess has been married.

As for the reason, Liu Changhe also mentioned it.

"What do you say about Changxun?"

"This is the arrangement made by the Lord and the Prime Minister, or to deal with possible changes. According to the current situation, we must be worried that the Newland Federation will launch a sudden attack when the wedding was held by the Baizhi Zhan, so we will hold the wedding secretly in advance and then we can quickly rush to the front line."

"Where is Xiang Zhen?"

"He only said that the current situation is very tense, and Newland Federation may participate in the war at any time. The prime minister is putting pressure on him to force him to reconcile with Bai Zhizhan."

"So, the battle has been decided."

Liu Changhe hesitated for a moment before saying, "Although the wedding has been held, it has not been announced to the public and will not be announced in advance. If the war breaks out at that time, he will have to hurry to the front line and may not be able to complete the wedding. The secretly held wedding may not be taken seriously."

"You mean..."

"No matter how powerful the prince-in-law is, he will be just a corpse after his death. What's more, he will die in the naval battle and die, and he may not even be left with a bone."

Liu Chongcheng did not speak, but closed his eyes instead.

"Father……"

That’s right, Liu Changhe is Liu Chongcheng’s son!

This is also the key to Liu Changhe's always being valued. He is the chief of the Liu family and the first heir to the Duke of Haikun.

Where is Liu Changxun?

His grandfather was Liu Zhentang's youngest son, Liu Chongcheng's younger uncle, and this "youngest son" Liu Nengrui was brought back from outside by Liu Zhentang. Therefore, in terms of blood relationship, he can only be regarded as a distant relative. According to the order of inheritance of titles, he was sent to one hundred people.

Liu Changxun’s identity as his grandfather has always been questioned.

Although Liu Zhentang solved the identity problem for Liu Nengrui when he was alive, people in the Liu family still think that Liu Nengrui is not Liu Zhentang's blood at all. The key is that Liu Nengrui's appearance and figure are nothing similar to Liu Zhentang.

Even if the son looks like a mother, it is impossible that he doesn't look like his father at all.

This incident also involves a rumor related to Chen Bingxun.

Chen Bingxun has a son!

However, it was not born to the Imperial Princess, but an illegitimate child.

It is said that he died shortly after his birth.

Because all the insiders have passed away, no one knows the truth or falsehood of this rumor. Moreover, because it involves the reputation of the royal family and the reputation of the God of War, no one dares to investigate.

The key point is that Liu Zhentang is Chen Bingxun’s most trusted subordinate. He is known for his coldness and arrogance, not like a person who has an extramarital affair.

The most important evidence is that when Liu Zhentang brought Liu Nengrui back to the empire, the imperial navy was besieging Jibu Fortress in Fan Yanyang. Soon after, Chen Bingxun was injured in the battle and died on his way back to China for medical treatment. If Liu Zhentang had not left, Chen Bingxun would not have been the one who commanded the battle on the front line.

It is precisely this that some people believe that Chen Bingxun’s son was not dead, but was taken away by Liu Zhentang.

Although Liu Zhentang left behind a legacy and allowed Liu Nengrui to enter his ancestral home, he still regarded his lineage as an outsider a hundred years later.

If it weren't for its outstanding ability and was appreciated by Zhu Shijian, Liu Changxun would not have been able to climb up at all.

"Do you think this is appropriate?"

"But……"

"Where will the hair be attached to it? The country is gone, is there any family?" Liu Chongcheng breathed a long sigh before opening his eyes and said, "The most urgent task is to win the next battle, seize the initiative on the battlefield, and lay the foundation for victory. If you win, then everything is easy to say."

"this……"

"Do you really think that Xiang Zhen can win a battle? This is a hard battle, and there must be sacrifices, so I can only hope that the sacrifice is not Liu."

Liu Changhe was stunned at first, and then he suddenly understood.

"Remember, the country comes first. Our Liu family has been loyal and kind for generations and devoted themselves to the empire. No matter who, it cannot ruin the reputation of the Liu family and cannot shame our ancestors. However, we will never allow treacherous and slanderous people to enter the center of the empire's power and defile the imperial family."

"clear."

"You understand what a bullshit!"

"Father……"

"Do you really understand that the one sitting in the position of Commander-in-Chief of the Navy is the bastard!?"

"But……"

"It's useless to say more. Remember my advice and go."

"yes!"

After Liu Chongcheng's instructions, Liu Changhe did not dare to talk too much, so he immediately took the initiative to leave.
Chapter completed!
