Chapter 974 Yun Che Does Not Plan to Observe Mourning
How could she tell him that her dignified mother and two sisters-in-law had just said something to her that made her blush?
"Nothing, just feeling a little hot."
"It's a refreshing autumn day, why do you feel hot? Are you feeling unwell?" Lan Feng asked with concern.
"I'm really fine."
Jiang Xiaowei quickly explained: "Brother was just looking for you, you should go there soon."
Seeing that she didn't seem to be lying, Lan Feng nodded and left.
Watching him leave, the blush on Jiang Xiaowei's face gradually faded. She understood that her family's concern was for her own good, but sometimes it was really hard to bear.
As night fell, Lan Feng planned to see what Jiang Xiaoan had given him. At this time, Jiang Xiaowei came over and asked, "Husband, what is this?"
"It's the treasure that my third brother gave me today." Lan Feng replied.
"It's not some medicine, is it?"
"It shouldn't be. It's more like a book." Lan Feng opened the package and said, "We'll know if we open it and take a look."
When they opened it, they found it was indeed a book. When they saw the contents, they were both stunned...
Jiang Xiaowei was the first to react and immediately covered her eyes with her hands: "Why is Third Brother like this? He actually gave you something like this."
Lan Feng came back to his senses and said softly, "Food and sex are human nature. This is human nature. Besides, I think there must be a deep meaning behind this gift from Third Brother. Let's think about it carefully."
What other explanation could there be? Her family must have been so eager for her to give birth to a child for Lan Feng that they came up with this idea.
In fact, she also hoped to give birth to a child of their love, but there was no need to be so anxious.
Looking at his wife who was covering her face with her hands, Lan Feng couldn't help but laugh: "Xiao Wei, look at me."
After hearing her husband's words, Jiang Xiaowei slowly put down her hand and looked up at him.
I saw that pair of beautiful eyes full of shyness, which was intoxicating.
"Husband!"
Jiang Xiaowei gritted her teeth and mustered up the courage to say, "No matter what Third Brother's true intention is, please don't take it to heart."
"But what if I want to care?" Lan Feng asked back.
At this moment, Lan Feng's eyes sparkled: "Third brother gave us these gifts just to remind us that it's time to have children, right?"
Jiang Xiaowei felt a little embarrassed by his gaze and lowered her head: "He has never been a serious person."
“I’m actually very grateful to him.”
Lan Feng gently lifted her chin and made her look directly at him: “After I realized my feelings, I have always wanted to get you.
Because of past debts, I have not been able to express my feelings. Today he gave us such a reminder, which gave me the courage to speak out. "
"Xiao Wei, can you trust me and give yourself to me?"
Jiang Xiaowei did not answer immediately, but just stared at Lan Feng quietly, which made him feel a little uneasy.
After a long time, she suddenly smiled brightly, stood on tiptoe, kissed him gently on the cheek, and whispered in his ear: "Husband, I have been waiting for this day to come."
Since the day of their wedding, she had dreamed of becoming his real wife.
Lan Feng stopped talking and lowered his head to kiss Jiang Xiaowei.
She put her arms around his neck and responded to his affection passionately.
He carried her to the bed, gently unbuttoned her clothes with his fingers, and leaned down...
The night is long, and the house is filled with the sweet atmosphere that belongs only to the couple!
There haven't been many court affairs recently, so Jiang Xue would rush back to the princess's mansion after retiring from court every day to accompany Xiao Zhan wholeheartedly.
Half a month passed quickly. One day, Xiao Zhan suddenly said to her, "Xiaoxue, I still remember that you did not observe mourning for three years after the queen passed away."
Jiang Xue nodded and responded: "At that time, my father intended to make me the crown princess and inherit the throne, so he specially issued an order to exempt me from the three-year mourning period and sent me directly to the frontier for training.
He hopes that I can quickly establish military merits to silence those opponents. Yun Che, could it be that you are…"
Xiao Zhan nodded in confirmation: "Your guess is correct, my aunt treats me like her own son, I should have observed mourning for her for three years;
But I don't want you to face the affairs of the court alone. Since there is a precedent, I think I don't have to mourn for my aunt now."
In fact, Jiang Xue had had this idea before, but she didn't know Xiao Zhan's true intention, so she never mentioned it.
Now that he has taken the initiative to propose it, we naturally need to discuss it carefully.
“Yun Che, are you really not going to observe mourning for your aunt for three years? You should know that this decision may bring you a lot of criticism in the future.”
"As long as you truly miss your aunt in your heart, what does formality matter?"
Xiao Zhan said: "I don't care about what others say, I just know that I must take good care of you and protect you in the future."
"In that case, let me handle this matter."
Jiang Xue snuggled into his arms: "Yun Che, thank you."
He has never been a person who pursues power. If it were not for the purpose of supporting her in the court, he would never choose to stay in the court without observing the three-year mourning period.
Jiang Xue decided that after the 100-day memorial for Madam Feng, she would find a way to get Xiao Zhan back to the court to jointly protect Jiang Heng's kingdom.
A few days later, news came from the Tianshui Kingdom that it would soon send envoys to the capital to discuss the cession of the Western Xia city and hoped to sign more treaties of mutual exchange.
Upon hearing the news, Fu Dong immediately expressed his concern: "I hope it's not that bastard Huangfu Shang."
Xiao Zhan, who was reading a book nearby, also raised his head and said, "I hope so too."
This time, their opinions were surprisingly unanimous.
Jiang Xue put down the letter in her hand and said, "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint everyone."
Considering Huangfu Shang's performance during his last diplomatic mission, he had a certain understanding of the Gan Kingdom. In addition, he was also the commander-in-chief of the Western Xia army this time. For the Emperor of Tianshui, he was the most suitable candidate.
Fu Dong frowned and said, "It's still this scumbag. Princess, if he dares to say something outrageous or do something out of line this time, please don't stop me from teaching him a lesson."
In contrast, Xiao Zhan seemed calmer. He picked up the book he had just put down and continued reading, but his deep eyes became even darker.
Since Huangfu Shang was destined to be the envoy, it was necessary to ask Jiang Xiaoan for new poison powder and poison to settle both new and old grudges.
About eight or nine days after sending out the album, Jiang Xiaoan came to the Lan residence on the pretext of taking Jiang Xiaowei's pulse.
When Jiang Xiaowei saw her third brother, she wanted to mention the matter of him giving away gifts indiscriminately, but she gave up because of shyness and let him take her pulse.
Jiang Xiaoan smiled with satisfaction after taking Lan Feng's pulse. It seemed that the album he gave to Lan Feng had worked. The young couple finally consummated their marriage. He believed that the good news of pregnancy would come soon, and his parents would be relieved.
"Third brother, what are you laughing at?" Jiang Xiaowei asked curiously.
Jiang Xiaoan came back to his senses: "Xiaowei, you are in such good health, I am so happy."
