Everyone was eager to make a move, just like modern fans chasing stars.
I want to admire the charm of my dream lover all the time.
After all, Jiang Yuanyi and Jiang Yuanlang were originally a mighty and handsome young general and a brilliant ten-year-old scholar, but it was effortless to capture them.
Apart from the princes, or royal relatives like Yan Zhuo, the second son of the Jiang family was the most popular son-in-law in the entire capital. Even Jiang Yuanlang, who came later, was far behind.
Who wouldn't be confused by a man who is good-looking, has a special temperament, a good family background, and has no bad habits?
In an instant, a dozen young ladies crowded around the door, standing on tiptoe to look out.
If Yan Zhuo hadn't taken Jiang Ying to the corner earlier, he would have been squashed by now!
While squeezing, she whispered in a low voice, "How is it, how is it, have you seen it? What clothes are they wearing, are they still as good-looking as before?"
This year, not only Jiang Yuanyi stayed in the hospital, but Jiang Yuanchen also rarely left the house.
Only Jiang Yuanlang hangs out every day, but these ladies obviously don't like his cynical and frivolous character, so they don't pursue him like they do his two brothers.
"Look! You look so haggard!"
"Wuwuwuwu, this is too tragic. This is all for the royal family, but I don't know if it's worth it."
"I don't care who it's for, I just want God to give us a genius brother. This is too much. This is what the book says about God being jealous of talented people!"
Jiang Ying was watching from the side and was amazed. "My Lord, the brothers are here?" But why are they so haggard? Didn't she cure them all?
I just caught a quick glimpse of him and before I had a chance to see him clearly, he was pulled to the side by Yan Zhuo.
Fortunately, thanks to Lingquan, my hearing has improved.
Jiang Ying closed her eyes slightly and listened to the greetings between King Qin and Jiang Shang, but they were all official terms and there was nothing interesting to hear.
Yan Zhuo nodded, "Yes, my uncles, the old man, and Duke Jiang are all here."
Jiang Ying was stunned. "Jiang Yilin and Luo Shi didn't come?"
Yan Zhuo's eyes flickered, "Here... too."
"My Lord." Jiang Ying turned around and looked at him, "Are you a fool? Why don't you ask? You're not going to tell me, right?"
Yan Zhuo was very calm, "Why did you say this without asking me? I am not stupid. I knew you would be unhappy to hear the names of the mother and daughter, but I still insisted on asking you to hear it?"
Jiang Ying: "..."
It seems that what he said makes some sense.
During the argument, Jiang Ying's ears moved. He heard that Wang Qin was actually praising Jiang Yilin?
"Brother Jiang, the education in the Duke's Mansion is very good. I once thought of sending my son to your family to study. Therefore, it is a blessing for my son Yan Zhuo to marry Miss Jiang."
Among the ladies, someone whispered in an envious tone, "Jiang Yilin is so lucky to be born. She has three brothers and no sisters. The whole family dotes on her."
"Not only that, even the King Qin seems to be very satisfied with her."
"How can a girl born outside of this family get this kind of treatment? You guys even said she was the Jiang family's illegitimate daughter, but it seems like she's not even an illegitimate daughter, and no one pays attention to her."
As they were talking, the topic turned to Jiang Ying.
It seemed that he would not stop until he had trampled her into the mud.
Jiang Ying was extremely annoyed, but at this moment, his grandmother's voice suddenly rose, "Prince, my granddaughter has already brought a child to your Yan family. Don't you know?"
His eyes fell on Jiang Yilin, and he said with great satisfaction, "..."
"This... Brother Jiang, what's going on?" He really didn't understand. Wasn't this the person Jiang Shang had brought to see a few days ago?
It’s this girl, right?
He had just returned from a disaster relief mission and was quite happy to learn that his eldest son had been arranged to marry.
As for the concubine, he forgot about it after hearing it once. He was actually looking forward to having a child, and didn't think there was anything wrong with Yan Zhuo giving a concubine who had given birth to a child a title of honor.
After all, she is just a concubine, strictly speaking, only slightly better than a wife.
And since even the emperor has agreed, there is no need to be too harsh on him as a father.
But I can't understand what Mr. Jiang means...
Yan Yu's face froze. "The old man is not joking with me, right? Is it really like what people say, that the concubine..."
"My son brought Jiang, Jiang's son Yan Ji, to see King 꿵!"
Seeing that Gou Ying was about to go, Yan Zhuo coughed and reminded him all the way, and finally brought Jiang Ying to the front.
He solemnly pulled the mother and son together and asked them to kneel down.
Yan Yu was a little confused to begin with, and now she was even more confused, but when the fat baby appeared in front of her, she looked even prettier and cuter than when she was far away.
The long, curled eyelashes were like a small fan, flickering in the obsidian eyes.
You can tell at first glance that he is smart and gifted.
Especially, he stretched out his hand to her, which confused Yan Yuxiang.
As soon as she was conscious, she stretched out her body. Little Yanyi showed a wolf grandmother's sly smile and crawled into Yanyi's body. [Mother, it's okay. Let's see how my beauty can help you. ]
[Who wouldn't like this cute girl? 】
[Love the woman and the people in her. I guarantee that he will not remember the mistress in a moment. Likewise, he will not remember Jiang Yilin.]
Crawling, crawling, after Yan Zhuo let go, little Yan Zhuo crawled into Yan Zhuo's arms like a big worm in a short while.
The little guy kept his word and stretched out his chubby little hand to gently stroke the slightly rough face.
Then she giggled, not at all shy and didn't know what timidity was.
Its arms and calves, which were as white as lotus roots, were exposed outside, and looked very much like the enamel dolls sold at the Zhongyuan Festival market.
"Ahh..." The little guy opened his toothless pink gums and moved busily as if he wanted to chat with Yan Yu.
Yan Yu, who had been looking forward to having a grandson for many years, was immediately shocked when he saw him. "What's this child's name?" He is so smart!
She is pretty, and when you look closely she resembles my eldest son when he was a child. Her eyes are like those of my deceased wife.
"To be honest. Although his fate is uncertain, his remaining glory is still long-lasting. My son hopes that he will live a more straightforward life in the future, be sincere and trustworthy, be loyal to the emperor and love the country." Yan Zhuo replied.
Yan Yu then realized that the two men were still kneeling and hurriedly shouted.
His eyes finally fell on Jiang Ying, "You...you are the one..."
"Your Majesty, she is your son's biological mother and the woman he loves most." Yan Zhuoji blurted out without even thinking.
I was stunned for a moment after I finished speaking, but I couldn't take back the words I had said.
He even clearly noticed that Jiang Ying pinched him, but he didn't get embarrassed, shocked, or angry. Instead, he reminded him not to act too much...
Realizing this, Yan Zhuo couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Was it acting? He hoped so.
After hearing this, his expression suddenly turned a little cold. What is this about affection or indifference? Is this what a prince should say in such an occasion?
Just as he was about to open his mouth to scold her, the little girl in his arms kissed him hard on the face.
She held his face and laughed, her laughter was so cute and she looked so cute too, it was hard to resist.
Seeing this, Jiang Ying bravely went to answer, "My Lord, the child is ignorant and offended."
"It's okay. I like children who are brave and not afraid of strangers." Yan Yu was unmoved and continued to hold Xiao Yan's hand without giving it to Jiang Ying. He smiled and said with a gentle expression, "Everyone, stand up. It's not proper for so many people to kneel. Come on, Brother Jiang, please come in. We haven't seen each other for a long time. Let's have a good talk."
Such a sudden turn of events made those unlucky people who had been waiting for Jiang Ying so desperately that their mouths dropped to the ground and they couldn't pick them up!
Especially Jiang Yilin and Meng Weiwei, one pinched his palm, the other grabbed his handkerchief, and gnashed his teeth with hatred, "Why did the king let him go just like that?"
