The prince took it and looked at it, and found that it was actually written by Jin Heqiao.
The letter was written with deep feelings and the ink was blurred in several places, as if the son had cried several times. He wrote about how he had not understood, how he had ridiculed, and how he had forbidden his son to walk... Then he wrote in detail about the grand occasion of the Colorful Clothes Party and his various thoughts.
This letter cannot be considered disrespectful. After all, I have almost let myself go, so it seems particularly sincere.
The prince thought that she was indeed an old fox, but he smiled and said, "Even those who have a grudge against her can be convinced. Yue'er can indeed be called the Seven Thieves' Delicate Heart."
Emperor Mingyan also smiled and said, "Indeed."
He turned around and asked Gu Jiuxing: "Is Yue'er coming back?"
Gu Jiuxing bowed hurriedly and replied: "Your Majesty, it is said that on the fourth day of the New Year, the young prince packed up and headed here!"
Emperor Mingyan smiled and said, "It's so hot, it's hard for her, but this must be because of Jiaozi and the other two. If I were the only one here, she would have a lot of excuses and would be too lazy to move."
The prince smiled and said, "That's not necessarily true. My son thinks Yue'er is still young and doesn't act like a mother to a child. I'm afraid she misses her father more."
As the father and son were talking, they heard someone report that Yan Shiyue had entered the palace and then went straight back to Changle Palace.
...
...
It was normal to go back to Changle Palace, after all, he had rushed all the way here, so he had to go back to take a shower and change clothes. However, before Emperor Mingyan and the Crown Prince finished talking about one thing, they heard someone report that Yan Shiyue was coming.
The prince smiled and said, "My son said Yue Er must be missing his father."
Emperor Mingyan snorted, "There must be something wrong."
Then he was called in.
Yan Shiyue's hair was still wet, and she tied it casually with a handkerchief. When she saw Emperor Ming Yan, she ran over and hugged his arm: "Aye!"
Emperor Ming Yan nodded.
Then she choked.
What was going on? Before she left, she went to the palace to tell the queen.
Just then, the list of concubines was handed over to her, and out of curiosity, she flipped through it.
The standards for selecting concubines were actually similar throughout the dynasties. The age of the concubines in Dayan was between thirteen and seventeen years old.
She has never been a saint, and her usual principle of conduct has always been not to break the big rules, but... everything else is fine, but being thirteen years old is really too much of a sin. No wonder so many people in this era died giving birth, their bodies were not well developed and they simply couldn't bear it.
But she had just started to speak when the queen scolded her harshly.
The Queen has always been wise and insightful, not one to stick to rules. But this matter, how should I put it, is a matter of her father's harem, a private matter of her elders. As children, they absolutely cannot interfere in such matters... They shouldn't even listen to it.
This is a major rule and a matter of principle.
She understood the truth, but she couldn't get over it because she didn't want to say it. She had to give it a try anyway.
She picked at the corner of Emperor Ming Yan's clothes, not knowing what to say.
Emperor Mingyan was originally in a relaxed mood, and even gave the crown prince a look, meaning "I'll just say she has something wrong!"
As a result, seeing her like this, Emperor Ming Yan couldn't help but be surprised, and reached out to touch her face: "Yuer? What's wrong?"
Yan Shiyue still remained silent.
The prince took a look and said with a smile, "Son, go and ask if Huo Qijing bullied Yue'er?" As he said this, he bowed and went out.
Emperor Mingyan gently stroked her hair and said, "If you have something to say, just say it."
She whispered, "Aye, I don't know whether I should say it or not... I don't know how to tell Aye."
Emperor Mingyan said, "Say it, whatever you want to say."
She said, "My mother scolded me and didn't let me speak."
Emperor Mingyan nodded: "Aye asked you to speak."
She hesitated for a moment, lowered her head and picked at the embroidery on his sleeve: "I secretly looked at the list of concubines... Father, thirteen is too young, still a child, can the age of the concubines be raised, even to the age of 15... Father, they are too young, it is easy to die when giving birth, leaving their parents at such a young age, I think it is inhumane..."
She muttered to herself, but Emperor Ming Yan remained silent.
She looked up at him, and Emperor Mingyan said to her, "This matter is not your business, do you know?"
She lowered her head, "I know. But," she pulled his sleeve and begged with tears in her eyes, "Aye!"
"Well," Emperor Mingyan said, "I'll let the Queen know that I won't pick those."
Yan Shiyue was overjoyed, hugged Emperor Ming Yan, and kissed him on the face: "Aye, you are the best! I love you the most!"
She left happily.
Emperor Mingyan looked at her back, shook his head, and sighed, "If I had said something later, you would probably have been making trouble with me again. How dare you intervene in such matters! Alas!"
Gu Jiuxing laughed hastily and said, "Your Majesty, the little princess was so embarrassed when she said it, she knows the importance of it!"
"That's true." Emperor Mingyan said after a while, "But he still deserves to be beaten! Remember this first!"
Yan Shiyue returned to Changle Palace, where the prince was practicing martial arts with Huo Qijing.
Yan Shiyue went over to check on the child. He was still sleeping when she came back just now, but now he was awake and quite alert.
So I took it and chewed it for a long time.
After the prince finished a set of training, his whole body was sweaty. He came over and said with a smile: "What is this matter? Did you ask Aye to agree?"
Yan Shiyue smiled and said, "I can't say."
The prince did not ask further questions, but only said: "When we return this time, it will be time for the selection."
Although he knew it was just a coincidence, after all, these were the only major events that had happened recently, Yan Shiyue still felt a little guilty and lowered his head without answering.
The prince looked at her and said, "Prince An's Mansion is also on the list of arranged marriages. You should pay more attention to it."
What's the meaning?
Yan Shiyue waited for the prince to leave, then called someone to ask about it.
No one else knew, but Tang Xiu heard from Chu Ningyuan that Yan Shitu had met a young lady recently. But he didn't say who it was.
Yan Shiyue suddenly became nervous.
Meng Min is a polite person, Yan Chengyuan usually doesn't care about the affairs in the rear house, and Yan Shitu is stupid. If they get a powerful daughter-in-law, it will be the end of them. The family will be in turmoil!
Yan Shiyue quickly asked someone to call Yan Shitu.
Yan Shitu followed Huo Qijing in the Yulin Army, taking turns and training like Huo Qijing, and he quite enjoyed it.
As soon as she called, Yan Shitu came over, wearing the uniform of a personal soldier, and said with a smile: "Yuer, you are back?"
Yan Shiyue pulled him over, pressed him down and asked, "I heard that you've been very close to a young lady recently?"
Yan Shitu blushed: "No, no." He scratched his head embarrassedly: "It was just a coincidence, just that one time... ahem, one or two times."
When she saw his blushing face, she became even more nervous and asked, "Who is it?"
He said, "I don't know."
She said, “What?”
Yan Shitu said: "I didn't ask who it was from. Why would I ask who it was from?"
"Oh," Yan Shiyue said coldly, "Did you know that there will be a talent show this time? You are already twenty years old, do you think there will be no arranged marriage for you?"
