In her previous life, Shen Wan was drugged and deceived by her cousin, believing she had lost her purity to Prince Xiao Yun. She married him with a grand procession, helping him ascend to the thron...
Chapter 564 Worry
After Princess Shouzhen's marriage was decided, Concubine Zhao was afraid that something might happen, so she quickly asked the Imperial Observatory to set an auspicious date for Princess Shouzhen and the eldest son of General Zhongwu's mansion, prepare the dowry, and marry Princess Shouzhen to Canaan Pass.
Chen Wan didn't know whether the wedding banquet at General Zhongwu's mansion was lively or not, but the palace was quite deserted, incomparable to Princess Xuanning's wedding.
The weather was getting hotter and hotter, and since she was pregnant, Chen Wan basically didn't go out of the Lin Mansion unless she went to the palace to pay her respects to the emperor.
That day, she was lying on the couch eating fruit when a maid brought in an ice basin. Qiu'er came in from outside and said happily, "Crown Princess, your cousin, the County Master Yunhe, is engaged..."
Shen Wan, “…???”
My cousin is finally engaged.
Cousin Yun Miao is one month older than her. She is about to give birth to two sets of children, but Yun Miao's marriage has not been decided yet. Although Chen Wan thinks that marriage should be done carefully and good things are worth waiting for, she is still a little anxious in her heart.
Shen Wan quickly asked, "Who is it promised to?"
Qiu'er said, "The nephew of the Right Prime Minister's wife, the cousin of Young Lady Zhao..."
Shen Wan, “…???”
Ling Xue’s cousin?
I have no impression at all.
Qiu'er said, "The Right Prime Minister's wife went to the Yun family personally to help arrange a matchmaking."
The son of the Right Prime Minister's wife's half-sister must be good. Both the Right Prime Minister and his wife knew that she had set her sights on the Yun family, and if their nephew had a bad character, they would definitely not dare to propose marriage.
However, Chen Wan still found it strange that the nephew of the Right Prime Minister's wife wanted to marry Yun Miao, so she asked Shanhu to send some imperial cakes to the Yun family and inquire about it.
Shanhu went to the Yun family when a little maid came in and said, "Crown Princess, the Princess of Yuzhang County is here."
Why is Wei Mingzhu here?
She and Wei Mingzhu haven't seen each other for a long time.
She was pregnant, and Wei Mingzhu was also pregnant. Plus, the weather was hot, so they didn't go out unless it was necessary.
Shen Wan stood up to greet him, and when he walked out of the hospital gate, he saw Wei Mingzhu coming from a distance.
The babies in their bellies are about the same month old, but Chen Wan is pregnant with her second child, so she became pregnant earlier and her belly looks much bigger than Wei Mingzhu's.
Wei Mingzhu came over, eyes full of surprise and envy, "Your belly is so big, are you pregnant with twins?"
Shen Wan laughed, "Just one."
It is a blessing to be able to conceive a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, so how could I dare to hope for another pair.
Besides, giving birth to twins is much harder than having only one. She gave birth to them one after another, so if she really had two in her belly, she would definitely not be able to handle it.
But even if there is only one, it is enough for Wei Mingzhu to envy.
They are about the same age, and Chen Wan already has a son and a daughter. How can people not envy her? However, no one can envy Chen Wan. They are close to her, and any bit of blessing they can get from her is enough for a lifetime.
Shen Wan asked, "It's so hot, and you're pregnant, why are you here?"
Wei Mingzhu looked at Chen Wan and said, "I came here to ask, do you know where the Prince of the County and the Prince of Linjiang have gone?"
Shen Wan, “…???”
This question confused Shen Wan, "Aren't they at the border?"
Wei Mingzhu came here full of hope, but when he heard these words, it was like someone poured a bucket of cold water over his head.
Wei Mingzhu shook her head. "The prince went to the border and only sent me two letters home. After that, there was no news. I felt something was wrong, so I sent people to inquire. I found out that he and the Linjiang Marquis's son had been at the border for half a month. He left a letter to find the Jingbei Prince, and then there was no news from them..."
Prince Yuzhang and Chu Yang went to find Xie Jingyu?
Shen Wan really didn't know about this.
Xie Jingyu did not mention this matter in his letter home, and the princess did not mention it either.
Well, Xie Jingyu felt that his writing was limited, and there was no need to write down what the princess knew. If the letter fell into the hands of others, it might cause unnecessary trouble.
The princess thought Xie Jingyu had told Shen Wan, but Shen Wan didn't ask and she didn't say anything.
Wei Mingzhu was very anxious. "If the Prince and his men really go to look for the Prince of Jingbei, we're not worried. We're just afraid that they'll be unreliable and not only fail to find him, but also get themselves lost..."
Shen Wan didn't think so.
Although Prince Yuzhang and Chu Yang seem unreliable, they will be more cautious and shrewd than anyone else when it comes to matters that endanger their lives.
It would not be possible to not find Xie Jingyu and lose yourself.
Shen Wan comforted her, “Don’t worry, I’ll send someone to ask.”
Chen Wan gestured to Yin Chuan and whispered a few instructions.
Yinchuan went to find the princess.
Shen Wan invited Wei Mingzhu to the flower hall for tea. Yinchuan ran there and back again. When she came back, she was exhausted, sweating and panting. "Princess, the Prince of Yuzhang and the others went to look for the Prince."
Shen Wan said, “Prince Yuzhang is with my husband, nothing will happen.”
Wei Mingzhu was finally able to let go of the worry that had been hanging in the balance for so long.
Wei Mingzhu cursed, "When he left, he said he would write me a letter every two weeks. It's not like he can't write a letter after he went to find the Prince of Jingbei. What a liar!"
Chen Wan felt that the scolding from Prince Yuzhang was unfair.
She explained on behalf of Prince Yuzhang, "It's not that they don't send letters home, it's that they can't. My husband has been away from Beijing for so long, and he only wrote me one letter home, and it was brought back by my mother."
Wei Mingzhu was extremely surprised. "Where did they go?"
Shen Wan looked at Wei Mingzhu and said, "I'd better not tell you. If Prince Teng and his wife know about this, Prince Yuzhang will definitely be beaten when he returns to the capital."
But the more Shen Wan said this, the more curious Wei Mingzhu became.
Wei Mingzhu raised her hand and swore, "I promise not to let Prince Teng and Princess Teng know."
Shen Wan hesitated.
Wei Mingzhu shook her hand and said, "Just tell me, I promise to keep it a secret."
Chen Wan had no choice but to tell her, "They are in Dongliang."
Wei Mingzhu frowned, unable to believe his ears.
Dongliang?
"What are they doing in Dongliang?"
I can still talk about what the Prince of Yuzhang and his men did in Dongliang, but I cannot talk about this part.
Shen Wan shook his head, "It's definitely not for fun, it's also for the war."
Wei Mingzhu believes this.
Prince Yuzhang and Chu Yang are not serious about their work, but the Prince of Jingbei is a serious person. He did not stay in Kyoto to accompany Chen Wan, nor did he fight at the border, but ran to Dongliang. There must be a reason why he had to go.
Wei Mingzhu said, "We feel relieved knowing that the Prince and the others are with the Prince of Jingbei."
Besides her, Shen Ling and Ling Xue were also very worried.
We have to tell them the news that Chu Yang, Zhao Ang and the Prince of Jingbei are working together.
Pregnant women should avoid worrying, especially since Chen Ling is about to give birth in the next two days.
Just as I thought of this, Chun'er came in and said, "Crown Princess, the wife of the Marquis of Linjiang has given birth to a son..."
Wei Mingzhu, "..."
Is it possible to give birth so quickly?
Chen Ling is in confinement and she is pregnant. Can I still go to see her?
Although Shen Wan has a good relationship with Shen Ling and the others, he will not tell them as soon as he goes into labor. He will only announce the good news after the child is born. In fact, Shen Ling went into labor yesterday afternoon.
The delivery went smoothly, mother and child were safe, and Shen Wan and Wei Mingzhu were both happy for Shen Ling.
