"Ranran, the Imperial Observatory has already calculated the date for our wedding," Jun Molin said.
"When?" Yun Qingran asked.
"Two months later, on June 18th."
"Ah, so fast." Yun Qingran was a little surprised. In just two months, she would be getting married.
"Is it fast? I think two months is too long. If possible, I would like to marry you right away," Jun Molin said with disdain.
"Hmph~" Yun Qingran gave a sweet, coquettish laugh.
"Ranran, I have something to tell you," Jun Molin said, his voice lacking confidence.
"Hmm?" Yun Qingran gestured for her to speak.
"Ten days from now is the day of the betrothal, but I won't be there," Jun Molin said with deep remorse.
He wasn't there on the day of the betrothal, which was really outrageous.
"Where are you going?" Yun Qingran knew that he must have something very important to do, otherwise he would definitely be there on such an important day as the betrothal.
"There's been some trouble on the frontier, I need to go there," Jun Molin said.
If Yun Qingran stood in front of him, she could see his eyes and realize that his eyes darted away when he spoke.
"Okay, you can go ahead if you're free," Yun Qingran agreed.
Although she was a little disappointed that Jun Molin wasn't there when the betrothal ceremony was held, she thought that the country came first and personal matters second, so she didn't think it was a big deal.
"Ranran, you are truly the best woman in the world." Jun Molin carried Yun Qingran and spun her around a few times.
"Giggle giggle..." Yun Qingran's cheerful laughter, like the tinkling of silver bells, echoed through the night.
The two returned to the Zhen'an Marquis's residence, and then took Jun An'an and Jun Yan'an back to the Bei Han King's residence.
The two children fell asleep on the way. After returning to the palace, the two men each carried one child back to their room.
Just as Jun Molin was about to lie down and put the child to sleep, Pei Chen arrived. Jun Molin got up, put on his clothes, and went to the study with him.
"Your Highness, we've found out that the Heavenly Demon Sect is currently located in Youlan Valley in Yuhua County." Pei Chen took out a map of Yuhua County and handed it to Jun Molin with both hands.
"Are you sure?" Jun Molin took the map and looked up to ask.
"Definitely." Pei Chen nodded.
Jun Molin looked down at the map. There was a place marked in red ink on the map, which read "Youlan Valley".
The Valley of Orchids is surrounded by three stone mountains, and a small river flows outside the mountains. To enter the valley, one must first cross the river and then ascend the mountains.
According to the map, the river is swift and the rocky mountains are steep, making it very difficult to enter the valley.
"The Valley of Orchids is easy to defend and difficult to attack, which is indeed very much in line with the style of the Heavenly Demon Sect in choosing locations." Jun Molin put down the map.
"Your Highness, you are about to get married. Why don't I go and do it myself?" Pei Chen advised.
This attack on the Heavenly Demon Sect is a decisive battle to the death; it's either you or me. It's extremely dangerous!
"No. I must go." Jun Molin refused.
The Heavenly Demon Sect is full of experts, and both the High Priest Jing Hongying and the Sect Leader are knowledgeable in military strategy. If I don't go, the outcome of this battle is uncertain.
"But what about the Princess Consort?" Since the marriage was arranged, everyone in the Northern Cold Prince's Mansion has started calling Yun Qingran the Princess Consort.
"I've already spoken to Ranran about the matter at the border, and I must go there," Jun Molin sighed softly.
He didn't want to deceive Ranran, but if she knew that their mission was to attack the Heavenly Demon Sect, she would definitely go with them. This trip was too dangerous; she couldn't go.
"When the princess finds out later, you'll probably have to kneel on two washboards until they break," Pei Chen said in a low voice.
"What did you say?" Jun Molin glared at him.
"Your subordinate said that we will definitely return victorious this time, and then you and the princess will get married and live happily ever after," Pei Chen said loudly.
Upon hearing this, Jun Molin's icy expression melted away almost entirely. "That's for sure."
Pei Chen: Luckily, I reacted quickly and had a sweet tongue~
"Your Highness, when shall we depart?" Pei Chen asked Jun Molin.
"We'll set off the day after tomorrow. The sooner we go, the sooner we'll come back," Jun Molin said.
"Yes, I will begin reorganizing the troops tonight."
The next morning, Yun Qingran slept until the sun was high in the sky before she got up.
"Your Highness, you've gotten up." As soon as she got up, a maidservant brought in water to wash her face.
"Hmm." Yun Qingran nodded, then asked them, "Your Highness, where is the Princess and her son?"
"His Highness has gone to the military camp. The young princess and the young prince are reading in the courtyard," the maidservant replied respectfully.
"Okay." Yun Qingran got out of bed, washed up, and went to the yard to find the two children.
Under the lush green grape trellis, two children, each holding a book, sat upright on a stone bench, engrossed in their reading.
"What are you two looking at?" Yun Qingran walked behind them with her hands behind her back and asked.
"Wow, Mom, you scared us!" Jun Yanyan laughed.
Since recovering from her illness and recognizing Yun Qingran, Jun Yanyan is now a carefree little girl who loves to laugh.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Yun Qingran hugged her and kissed her.
"Mother, we are reading 'The History of the Northern Yin Dynasty'." Jun An'an turned the book cover over for Yun Qingran to see.
"Can you understand it?" Yun Qingran asked them.
In the 21st century, history is only taught in junior high school. These two are only four years old. It must be too difficult for them to learn a degree.
“I can understand a little bit, but my little brother can’t. But that’s okay, we have a teacher who will explain it to us,” Jun Yanyan said with a grin.
"It would be great if there were some simple yet useful books for us to study," Jun An'an muttered.
“Indeed, your education system is terrible.” Yun Qingran nodded.
The world has a very low level of knowledge and cultural literacy, and the education system is very poor. For example, there are very few books suitable for children's early education.
"Yan Yan, An An, how about Mother compiles a few books for you?" Yun Qingran asked the two children.
"Really, Mother?" The two children clapped their hands happily when they heard that Yun Qingran was going to compile a book for them.
"Yes, Mother is going to compile a few books for you children to use." Yun Qingran nodded.
I had previously discussed with Teacher Luo about opening a private school so that children all over the world could have access to education. Now we can start doing just that.
She has already compiled 300 Tang and Song poems for her teacher, and now she can compile the "Three Character Classic," the "Hundred Family Surnames," and some short essays, such as "Spring is Coming."
Yun Qingran was torn. Should she introduce pinyin? Pinyin could allow students to try recognizing characters on their own.
Besides Chinese, there's also mathematics.
Mathematics has a wide range of applications, and learning mathematics can develop intelligence.
Math books can include addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and equation calculations. And, of course, there's the crucial multiplication table.
Without further ado, Yun Qingran asked for paper and pen and began compiling teaching materials.
