"My dear," His Highness Prince Yan's mood instantly brightened, and he smiled and held his beloved wife's hand: "Why don't you sleep a little longer and get up early."
His Highness Prince Yan smiled, and the stagnant atmosphere in the study suddenly relaxed.
Princess Yan's concubine Yuan's maiden name is Xiang, and Jiao Niang is her nickname.
King Yan and Princess Yan have been in love as husband and wife for many years. Every time they open their mouths, they are greeted with affectionate nicknames.
Princess Yan pursed her lips and smiled, then stretched out her hand to straighten her husband's clothes: "His Highness has to get up early to go on errands and will not be in the house during the day. Naturally, I have to get up early and come over to take a look at His Highness first. Otherwise, I will have to worry about it all day long."
Mrs. Yuan gave birth to a daughter when she was forty years old. It is not easy for an old clam to give birth to pearls. Combined with the premature birth, Mrs. Yuan had some congenital deficiencies. She was raised and raised carefully, and she became beautiful and innocent, just like a delicate flower that cannot eat the fireworks of the world.
.
His Majesty the King of Yan, who was extremely heroic, took a first look at the Yuan Mansion and was captivated by Miss Yuan, whose black eyes were as innocent and penetrating as a stream.
King Yan worked hard to marry his sweetheart, and he wished he could hold his beloved wife in his hands.
Princess Yan is thirty-five years old this year. She has no wrinkles on her face and her eyes are still dark and bright. When she smiles, she is as innocent and lovely as a little girl.
When King Yan saw his beloved wife smiling like a flower, his heart softened, and he held Princess Yan's hand tightly and refused to let go: "I'll have breakfast with you before leaving."
Princess Yan nodded happily.
Eunuch Yang was so smart that he had already sent someone to pass on the meal without the master's instructions.
"If you are feeling depressed in the palace, ask your mother-in-law and sisters-in-law to accompany you." King Yan said with a low smile.
The father and son of the Yuan family are all in the border army, and there are a lot of female relatives left in the Yuan Mansion. They often come to Prince Yan's Mansion on weekdays.
Princess Yan nodded happily: "I also have this plan." After a pause, she suddenly sighed: "Unfortunately, Sister Jiang almost never goes out after marrying into the Qiu family. I haven't seen her in two years."
The sister Jiang mentioned by Princess Yan is none other than her adopted sister Jiang Xue.
Jiang Xue lost her father when she was nine years old, and was taken into the Yuan Mansion to raise her. Princess Yan was the youngest daughter in the family, and she was very happy to have a foster sister who was younger than herself. She took care of Jiang Xue in every possible way.
Unfortunately, Jiang Xue had bad luck. Within a year of marrying Shen Rong, her husband died and she became a widow.
After observing her husband's filial piety for three years, Jiang Xue remarried General Qiu.
General Qiu's full name is Qiu Mingcheng. He is the military commander of Beicheng and a fourth-grade General Xuanwei. Shen Rong was good friends with Qiu Mingcheng during his lifetime.
General Qiu is eight years older than Shen Rong, and more than ten years older than Jiang. And he has the appearance of a standard martial artist... He is dark and strong, the kind of arrogant man who is tall and thick.
The beautiful Jiang married General Qiu, and everyone said that General Qiu was blessed with beauty. Some people even secretly gossiped that General Qiu, who had been a widower for many years, suddenly proposed to marry Jiang. Did Jiang secretly marry her as early as when she was keeping her husband's filial piety?
Hooked up or something like that.
Of course, these filthy gossips would never reach Princess Yan’s ears.
Hearing Jiang's name, King Yan smiled.
A cold light flashed across his eyes.
Looking at Princess Yan again, she quickly turned into a pool of gentle spring water: "Old Mrs. Qiu has strict rules and doesn't like her daughter-in-law to go out at will. Jiang is a remarried person. If you want to establish yourself in your husband's family, you must abide by the rules of her husband's family. You just have to abide by the rules of her husband's family.
Don't force her."
This is true.
Princess Yan was easily persuaded, and smiled and said casually, "By the way, Sister Jiang and Shen Rong's son will be quite young this year, right?"
King Yan hummed.
Princess Yan didn't pay attention to Prince Yan's complex expression at all, and said with a smile: "This year's imperial robe competition, when Your Highness chooses his own soldiers, please select that child into Prince Yan's palace!"
"This child is also pitiful. He has lost his biological father and his biological mother has remarried. From now on, His Highness will take care of him for a while, which can be regarded as repaying Shen Rong's loyalty and bravery when he sacrificed his life to save His Highness."
King Yan dotes on his wife as much as she wants, and almost never refuses Princess Yan.
This time, he did not respond readily, but responded vaguely: "I'll take a look at it when the time comes."
In Princess Yan's opinion, this was her answer, she pursed her lips and smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."
King Yan twitched the corners of his mouth, but there was no smile in his eyes.
Eunuch Yang on the side lowered his head to his chest, not daring to look at his master's face.
…
King Yan took Princess Yan's hand and went to the dining room.
A young man wearing a moon-white brocade robe also came and greeted him: "My son has met his father, the king, and his mother's concubine."
This young man is sixteen years old this year. He has eyes like bright stars, a handsome face, a tall body and a noble air. He is Zhu Yun, the only son of Prince Yan and his wife.
Princess Yan was frail and had a difficult time getting pregnant, so she had to stay on the couch to raise her fetus. When she was in labor, she stayed up all day and night before giving birth to her son.
Other women did confinement for a month, but Princess Yan did it for half a year before going out to meet people.
King Yan was frightened and refused to let Princess Yan become pregnant again.
There are six legitimate sons and concubines of King Qin, and there are also a lot of grandsons and granddaughters in the palace of King Zhao. Even the young King of Han has two sons and three daughters.
Only the King of Yan, Zhu Yun, was the only one.
When his son was eight years old, King Yan asked Zhu Yun to be named the crown prince.
Emperor Long'an felt that the emperor's grandson was still young and there was no need to rush to make him the crown prince, so he suppressed the memorial to King Yan. As a result, King Yan submitted the memorial every year for four consecutive years.
Emperor Long'an had no choice but to give in to the stubborn King Yan, so he agreed. Therefore, Zhu Yun was granted the title of Crown Prince at the age of twelve, making him the first among the emperor's grandsons.
The King of Qin waited until his eldest son was sixteen years old before he asked for the title of Crown Prince for his eldest son.
Zhu Yun inherited the health of King Yan and was not as delicate as his mother. He was fat and strong since he was a child, and he had an intelligent mind and a first-class talent in reading.
There were more than a dozen imperial grandsons studying in the upper study room, and Zhu Yun got first place in every ten-day exam. Emperor Long'an liked Zhu Yun very much and once praised Zhu Yun in front of others when he was young.
There is only one son of King Yan, but he stands out for his absolute quality. It is no exaggeration to say that he is the most outstanding and outstanding grandson.
King Yan smiled broadly at his beloved wife. When he saw his son, he immediately straightened his face like a strict father: "Sit down!"
It is natural for a son to be afraid of me.
When Zhu Yun saw his father, he felt a little scared, so he agreed in a low voice and sat down in a polite manner.
Princess Yan felt sorry for her son and couldn't help but give King Yan an angry look: "Your Highness, you can show off your majesty in front of others. Even if you are so serious in front of your son, you are not afraid of scaring Yun'er."
King Yan had listened to this delicate voice for more than ten years, but he still couldn't get enough of it. He suddenly laughed: "Yes, yes, I listen to the princess."
Then, he served many dishes to Princess Yan, and every item was her favorite.
Princess Yan pursed her lips and smiled.
She has a small appetite and can only eat half a bowl at each meal. King Yan always wants her to eat more.
The couple looked at each other with endless tenderness. They completely forgot that their son was still there.
Zhu Yun was very used to being ignored and ate silently with his head down.
