Princess Yan was so amused that she burst into laughter.
Yes, the scene of meeting King Yan for the first time has always been engraved in my heart and vivid in my mind.
That year, she was only fourteen years old. She was frail and carefully raised, and rarely went out to see people. That day, she was admiring flowers in the garden as usual, and happened to meet a young man in brocade clothes.
The young man's sharp eyebrows and shining eyes looked at her intently.
She had never been in contact with a boy other than her brothers and was not shy, so she boldly looked back: "Who are you? Why are you in our Yuan family's garden?"
The young man said softly: "My surname is Zhu, and I am the second in the family. You must be Yuan Hai's sister, General Yuan's only beloved daughter!"
She opened her clear eyes, smiled and nodded: "Yes! My name is Yuan Xiang."
The young man stared at her and smiled slightly: "What a good name."
In just a few words, his brother Yuan Hai quickly rushed over, saluted the young man in gilded clothes with clasped fists, and opened his mouth to call His Highness the Second Prince. It turned out that he was His Highness the Prince of Yan, who was rumored to be both civil and military.
Her brother didn't want her to show up in front of King Yan, so he motioned her to step back with his eyes. She didn't think much and left quickly. After walking far away, she couldn't help but look back and smiled brightly at him.
This smile formed a happy marriage.
"When you came to propose marriage, my father was unwilling in every possible way." Princess Yan chuckled softly: "I have been sick since I was a child and have a delicate body. My father is not willing to let me get married at all, let alone me to be the prince's concubine."
Marrying a prince is indeed extremely honorable, but it also carries extremely high risks. Either you will rise up the ladder with your husband-in-law, but if you fail to win the heirloom, life will be very difficult.
Thinking of the days when his father-in-law made things difficult for him, King Yan also smiled and actually felt nostalgic: "When I went to Yuan's house, it was very difficult to see you. General Yuan was not happy, and your brothers and brothers also stopped me.
Don’t let me see you.”
Princess Yan answered the question smoothly: "Thanks to my sworn sister, I secretly sent the message from her."
As soon as the word "sworn sister" was spoken, King Yan's expression suddenly changed.
On normal days, King Yan would never have shown any clues and expressed the hatred in his heart so obviously. But tonight, he was drunk, and his thoughts were far less clear than usual, and his face suddenly showed signs of it.
Princess Yan looked up and saw that King Yan's expression was different, and she was a little surprised: "Why are you unhappy?"
King Yan suddenly said: "I hate this person. Don't mention her in front of me in the future."
This she is talking about, Princess Yan's adopted sister Jiang Xue.
Princess Yan was startled, a strange feeling came over her heart, and she subconsciously said something: "After I got married, my adopted sister often came to Prince Yan's Mansion to stay with me. At that time, you praised her for being smart and careful. Later she got married.
She lost her husband and remarried, and almost never comes to the house anymore."
"Since when did you hate her so much?"
King Yan snorted: "There is no reason, I just hate this person."
It was obvious that King Yan was really drunk.
However, even though his consciousness was chaotic, King Yan did not reveal the secret deep in his heart. After saying this, King Yan fell on the bed and fell asleep quickly.
Princess Yan sat blankly by the bed for a moment, unable to figure it out. For some reason, there was a hint of panic and confusion in her heart.
Forget it, if you don’t understand it, don’t think about it.
Princess Yan didn't change her clothes, she just lay next to King Yan, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
That night, Princess Yan, who always slept well, had many strange and bizarre dreams. When she woke up, she forgot everything and her head ached a little.
After a night, King Yan sobered up and forgot what he said last night. He asked Princess Yan with concern: "My dear, did you not sleep well last night? Why don't you look good?"
Princess Yan calmed down and said with a smile: "When my daughter-in-law comes in, I become a mother-in-law. It's quite strange to think about it like this. I think so much that I don't sleep well."
King Yan laughed dumbly: "What's wrong with being a mother-in-law? Wouldn't it be better to have a daughter-in-law, and to honor and serve you together with my son?"
The daughter-in-law is also the niece of her mother's family. She has watched Yuan Min grow up since she was a child, and she is the most familiar and close to her. Is there anything else to find fault with?
Princess Yan thought about it and smiled: "That's right. I'm going to change clothes and make up now."
"I smell of alcohol, so I'm going to take a shower and change clothes first."
King Yan said something casually, turned around and left.
Princess Yan looked at her husband's upright back and was silent for a moment before calling Hongyu to come over and dress up.
Hongyu's ingenuity gave Princess Yan a complicated and beautiful hairstyle. Princess Yan usually doesn't like makeup, so today she took the initiative and ordered: "Put on some makeup to look better."
…
The freshly dressed King Yan and Princess Yan were sitting at the top.
A newly married couple came to serve tea together.
Zhu Yun's face was filled with spring breeze, and he bowed his hands in salute. Next to him, his newlywed wife Yuan Min, with a slightly blushing face, served tea to her parents-in-law.
In terms of appearance, Yuan Min and Princess Yan are not similar. Princess Yan is charming and charming. She is over thirty years old, and her eyes are as clear as those of a girl who is not familiar with the world.
Yuan Min was born beautiful and bright, and behaved generously. It was obvious at first glance that she was a lady who had been carefully raised.
"My daughter-in-law serves tea to my mother-in-law." Yuan Min held the tea cup respectfully.
It is common for the mother-in-law to make things difficult when the daughter-in-law is serving tea.
Princess Yan immediately took the tea, took a sip, and repeatedly praised the tea. She was also given a generous greeting gift.
Yuan Min pursed her lips and smiled, feeling warm in her heart.
She and Zhu Yun were cousins and childhood sweethearts. When they first fell in love, they only had each other in their hearts. Engagement and marriage came naturally.
Her mother-in-law is her biological aunt. She has watched her grow up since she was a child and has always loved her. The first hurdle that a new bride has to pass is easily passed.
King Yan was in a good mood, and his majestic face was much gentler than usual: "Your great-grandmother and imperial grandfather are waiting in the palace. Come into the palace now to serve tea and recognize your relatives!"
Zhu Yun and Yuan Min responded in unison.
King Yan and Princess Yan took the first carriage, and Zhu Yun and Yuan Min took the second carriage.
A group of personal guards of King Yan were clearing the way forward and backward. However, the rules in the palace were strict. Even if the prince entered the palace, he could not bring more than ten personal guards with him.
As one of them, Shen You is closest to His Highness King Yan, which also symbolizes King Yan's trust and respect.
When they arrived outside the palace gate, King Yan got off the carriage first, and then reached out to help Princess Yan get off the carriage: "Be careful, don't touch her."
Princess Yan smiled at King Yan.
We have been an old married couple for nearly twenty years, and they are still so loving, which is really enviable to others.
Shen You glanced at it subconsciously.
Princess Yan's eyes also drifted to Shen You's face.
Shen You's extremely handsome appearance is very similar to Jiang Xue when he was young.
Princess Yan couldn't help but feel dazed for a moment, and the scene from last night suddenly flashed through her mind.
King Yan said that he hated Jiang Xue.
What had Jiang Xue done to make King Yan so angry and disgusted?
