Chapter 294 - The chosen wedding date
The main reason is that Empress Yun has already had a premonition of her own health recently. It was only a month or so before the six-month period, and she thought that even if An Qing Ran had made a mistake in her calculations, she would not be able to live for another ten days and a half months, which would not help. By then, the Crown prince will be in mourning for as little as a year or as long as three years, and he will not be able to get married because of it. So there is no telling what kind of things will come out of that at that time.
Moreover, she still wanted to teach her something, how to be a wife, how to be a queen of a country. She liked the child, and although she was sure she could handle the situation, she didn't want her to take the wrong path.
It is night.
Emperor Yun Qi came early, Empress Yun had just finished bathing, her long hair was draped, her face was like a peach blossom, her lips were like peach pearls, she looked extraordinarily delicate, as if she was a young girl of eighteen years old. When Emperor Yun Qi saw her, his heart blossomed, and he approached, as if it was eighteen years ago, and gently took her by the waist: "Yun'er, are you waiting for me?"
He didn't say Zhen, just like many years ago.
Empress Yun's head was hanging low, and her white neck was scented with the fragrance of lilies, which Emperor Yun Qi gently touched with the tip of his nose, moving gently, his eyes full of love. Empress Yun's nose was a little sour as she clung to his embrace, the embrace that had given more than ten years of tenderness and affection, and she would soon be leaving. What was left for him was just a memory, and she wondered if he would come out of it soon after she left. She hoped that he would forget about herself soon, but she also hoped that he would always remember her, Empress Yun was conflicted.
"What's wrong? What are you worried about?" Emperor Yun Qi was sensitive enough to notice the difference in her.
"Qie just remembered that Yunze has recently experienced such a great plague, and now that the people are in need of a happy event to boost their morale ......" Empress Yun could not really find any other excuse, so she could only test the waters and then watch Emperor Yun Qi's reaction.
"So in Yun Er's words what should one do?"
"His Majesty should offer sacrifices to heaven and earth to bless the people, and at the same time the people of the world should be amnestied to stabilise their hearts."
"There has to be a reason for the amnesty too ......," Emperor Yun Qi sighed.
"How about the Crown Prince marriage and then the world being given an amnesty? This is also a great celebration, everything about the crown prince is related to the stability of the country and the people's heart, what does Your Majesty think?"
"Marriage? But the Crown Princess has not yet reached the age of maturity, and this would be against the rites of passage and would not be beneficial to the people."
"During the ancestor's years, in order to drive out the pandemic, there was a marriage to the Crown Princess, named Naxi, the Crown Princess also had not yet reached maturity, after waiting for the epidemic to disappear, only after years consummated, this has a precedent, there is also a folk saying of marrying a wife to promote happiness ......"
"It seems that the Empress has thought about it ......" Emperor Yun Qi sighed, "That's true, it has been a long time since the palace has had a happy event, not for the people to be happy, Not for the people to be happy, but the adding a new son in the palace is also a great joy, and I will consider it."
In fact, looking at his expression, Empress Yun knew that the matter was basically settled.
She originally wanted to use her own health as a reason for the wedding, but thought that If she had pretended to be weak and marry An Qingran into the house now, there would have been no rush of joy, and she would have died soon, bringing An Qingran a bad reputation instead, so she changed the wording.
Emperor Yun Qi really agreed.
The date of the wedding was determined by the people of Qin Tianjian, and finally the first day of August was selected.
When An Qing Ran heard the news, she couldn't believe her ears, she couldn't have imagined that it would be in such a hurry. Lian Jin Yu's heart was filled with joy and sorrow as she thought that her daughter would soon enter the palace and be at the top of the hierarchy. It was a blessing that could not be cultivated in several lifetimes, and it fell on Qingran. She was happy for her, but she thought that once qingran entered the palace, mother and daughter would be treated like monarchs and ministers when they saw each other. I'm afraid there won't be a possibility to meet a few times a year. How can I be willing to let go of a good person who has entered the palace and become someone else's daughter-in-law?
And the happiest of all was Dongfang Jin, thinking that he was the first obedient person in the ancient world and that he would soon be able to protect her personally, being by his side where he would never have to worry again.
He was the first to tell An Qing Ran the news.
On that night, the stars were shining brightly, and she hadn't seen the Crown Prince for many days, and An Qing Ran wondered why he had changed his nature, but when she was about to close the window, Dong Fang Jin suddenly appeared, startling her: "Why is it you?"
"Why am I not allowed?"
"The crown prince came here so late, I wonder how he will return to the palace later, the palace doors are all locked, right?" An Qing Ran was in fact still very happy about seeing him, but could not show it, and only deliberately mentioned other topics.
Dongfang Jin looked different from his usual self today, he looked at her with a smirk and a snicker under his eyes, that smile carried a smugness that could not be concealed: "Rush tomorrow and my home, see if you still rush me?"
"That will have to be a long time from now, it's still too early to say that, who knows what will happen?" An Qing Ran pursed her lips and snapped.
"After a long time? If it's a long time from now, what am I doing here today."
"What?" Hearing his words were not right, An Qing Ran could not help but feel a stirring in her heart.
"Father has already decreed that I should admit you to the palace, on the first day of August."
"That ...... doesn't make sense."
"Our marriage, which is due ......"
An Qing Ran was completely taken aback by his words, she didn't think she would be going to the palace soon, that palace was familiar to her, and the thought of going back there again made her heart ache a little.
"What? You don't want to?" Dongfang Jin could see her hesitation and could not help but frown, " Or maybe, you don't want to marry me? The previous one was just a perfunctory response to me?"
"No."
"Is that so? You can tell me whatever is in your heart, I am a more open-minded person." Dongfang Jin's handsome face now has a serious expression.
There are some things that really are not destined to be told to him.
Tension suddenly appeared on Dongfang Jin's face: "What's wrong? Are you in love with someone else? Who is that person? Tell me, I'll kill him."
"Are you still so bloody and brutal?" An Qingran smiled.
"Yeah, I won't comply until you tell me." Dongfang Jin said sincerely, "Wait, aren't you afraid of the bridal chamber?"
He said this with a hint of mischief at his lips and an arched eyebrow as he approached with each step.
An Qing Ran took two steps back, Dongfang Jin assumed more and more that he got the purpose. He lifted her chin with his hand and licked his lips with the tip of his tongue, resembling a large, fragrant grapefruit himself, which was very seductive. An Qing Ran laughed.
Dongfang Jin's face was slightly embarrassed, but she was the only woman who could still smile in front of his charm.
An Qing Ran stifled a laugh.
"It seems that you are not afraid of the bridal chamber..." Dongfang Jin's lips touched the corners of her mouth lightly, with a bit of coolness and the pleasant smell of pomelo leaves. Now An Qing Ran was sure that he must have taken a bath with the grapefruit leaves.
It was really rare.
