After conveying the news to the Queen, An Xishui also informed An Jingcheng of the news, but Yu did not say anything about it.
Considering how much the Yu family loves An Xibi, if she knew that An Xibi was pregnant, she would definitely go to the Prince's Mansion as soon as possible. At the same time, she would inevitably worry about An Xibi, so An Xibi planned to wait for some time before telling her.
she.
An Jingcheng has not made any move, and An Xishui is not in a hurry. She told An Jingcheng the news. With An Jingcheng's mind, he must have guessed what she meant. But this is not a very good news.
An easy decision requires risking the entire Jingguo House. An Jingcheng needs to carefully consider such a major matter.
Soon, it was the Dragon Boat Festival.
Every year during the Dragon Boat Festival, a palace banquet is held in the palace. Like other important festivals, it is also a good opportunity for the emperor to connect with his subordinates, and this year is certainly no exception.
But the emperor was worried about another thing.
The envoys from Northern Mongolia submitted a request to marry the second princess of the imperial kingdom on behalf of their newly succeeded Great Khan Agula. They expected the two countries to reconcile and requested the emperor's consent.
On the surface it is a marriage, but in fact it is a threat. If you marry your princess, the two countries will be in peace. Otherwise, they will fight.
As for the second princess, there is only one unmarried princess of the right age in the empire. So the other party also made it clear that she wants to marry your second princess.
No matter how willful the second princess is, she has been favored by the emperor for so many years. After all, she is his beloved child, so the emperor is somewhat reluctant to part with her.
But now, his health is getting worse day by day. Although the imperial doctor does not tell the truth, he knows clearly that he is afraid that he really won't be able to survive for too long. The crown prince has not yet been decided, and at this time, the empire cannot withstand the war at all.
The emperor is not a fool. He knows that the four countries will fight sooner or later, but not now.
Now, there must be no war.
The only person who can take up the challenge is An Jingcheng, but An Jingcheng's identity is too sensitive. The fifth prince's uncle and the crown prince's biological father, even though he has always been loyal to him, the emperor does not dare to completely trust him.
After much thought, the emperor decided to let the second princess get married.
But this news somehow fell into the ears of Concubine Xian, who immediately came to the emperor crying.
"Your Majesty, I have doted on Xue'er like an eyeball since I was a child. Aren't you the one who loves her the most? How can you be willing to let her marry in a place like that? Your Majesty, I beg you, I beg you.
Don't let Xue'er marry, Your Majesty..." Concubine Xian cried so hard that she knelt down in front of the emperor. No matter how willful Xue'er is, she is still her daughter. She also plans to find a good match for her.
How could a consort, a princess of an imperial kingdom, the emperor's favorite daughter, live a happy life? However, how could her Xueer endure the marriage in a barbaric land like Northern Mongolia?
Although the Emperor did not love the Concubine Xian as much as he did the Concubine Liang, the Concubine Xian also gave birth to children for him and was very popular with him. He rarely wronged her on weekdays. But today was different. There was a palace banquet in the evening.
, the envoy from Northern Mongolia is about to come to ask him for an answer, and he can no longer hesitate. At this time, if there is a border war, the people will be in dire straits!
Therefore, the emperor finally hardened his heart: "Xianfei, I also feel sorry for Xue'er, but the border cannot be messed up!"
