Emperor Ming Yan nodded, and then saw Huo Qijing very easily grab the struggling little guy into his arms, hugged him and walked away. From a distance, he could still hear her singing: "I have also attended the Qionglin Banquet, and I have also ridden a horse in front of the Imperial Street. Everyone praised my handsomeness. It turns out that the gauze hat covers the beauty of the moon, haha..."
To be honest, the singing was quite nice...but many officials were worried and stole glances at the prince.
I thought to myself, is it possible that the Prime Minister is feeling uncomfortable seeing the Crown Prince's great achievements?
Only Emperor Mingyan and the Crown Prince understood that she really just wanted to say "I'm happy because my father is happy"!
Yan Shiyue sang all the way back to Changle Palace. Linlang and a few others were about to come forward to greet them, but when they saw the young couple like this, they hid themselves.
Yan Shiyue actually only drank three and a half cups, and felt very sober. Huo Qijing threw her on the couch, and she staggered, but she didn't forget to tease him: "Husband! Husband! Huo Daddy! I love you! Muah!"
Huo Qijing covered her mouth casually and nodded: "I love you, too."
She pulled his hand away, shook her head vigorously, reached out to pinch his chin, and kissed him on the face: "Princess Huo! Come on, smile for me! If I'm happy, I'll give you a bunch of sons! Give you an army of the Huo family!"
Puff! Huo Qijing burst into laughter, and while laughing, he quickly took off his outer robe: "Okay, that's what you said! Without having ten or eight children, there will be no army..."
As he ripped open his shirt, he leaned over to whisper in her ear, smiling, "Your Majesty's word is as good as gold. I'm waiting for it!"
...
...
After working hard all night, the cow woke up in the morning full of energy.
Tian...felt like she had been beaten up by someone, and the person didn't hold back at all. When the prince came over, she couldn't even get up and just said she had a hangover.
The prince stood outside helplessly and spoke to her: "My father asked me to go down and promote this grain. Your shadow guards gave it to me directly, and I will pay you back double."
Yan Shiyue hummed. The prince wanted to say something, but how could he say anything in this situation? He simply said nothing and smiled, "Then I'll leave."
The prince has left, and we are preparing to return to Chang'an.
Yan Shiyue did not deliberately prevent Yan Shitu from meeting Wu Fangzi, but still instructed Huo Nan and Chu Ningyuan to stay with Yan Shitu as much as possible.
It is said that the two met again once, and they didn't say anything. Yan Shitu asked the other person's name, but she didn't tell him... But he found it out afterwards, and then he came to her and told her hesitantly that he wanted to marry her.
Yan Shiyue just said: "Let's talk about it when we get back. What I say doesn't count. I still have to tell my mother."
In fact, she had already written a letter back, and Meng Min probably had already asked someone about it privately.
As September approached and the weather gradually became cooler, the emperor set out on his journey back to Chang'an. Emperor Ming Yan was in a very good mood the whole time.
Ever since the incident with the national treasury, every time she saw Emperor Ming Yan, she felt as if he was holding something in his heart. Now she felt that she was completely relieved.
Yan Shiyue was watching and thinking, Champa rice is so happy, if there are sweet potatoes and potatoes...
But this probably requires going out to sea.
She was thinking that the Ministry of Commerce’s next five-year plan would involve going out to sea and engaging in maritime trade.
In these five years, we should first settle the domestic affairs, Mobei and Karakhan, and then consider going to sea. I don't know how the shipbuilding is going over there.
When the emperor was still one day away from the capital, he saw a group of people coming from the front. It was the Fourth Prince who led people out of the city to welcome him.
The holy carriage paused, and the old men exchanged glances in a way that only they understood.
This is anxious... I heard about the Champa rice and I got anxious.
But the more times like this come, the more you have to keep your composure, otherwise, you really will... not even have the qualifications.
At this moment, Yan Shiyue was playing hopscotch with Emperor Ming Yan. The imperial carriage stopped and someone outside announced that the Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince had arrived, but Emperor Ming Yan did not look up and continued to play chess slowly.
Yan Shiyue felt a little bit embarrassed to go on. Listening to the silence outside, she felt really embarrassed for them.
Emperor Ming Yan made two moves, and seeing her like this, he couldn't help but sigh: "You!"
He raised his hand, and Gu Jiuxing called in. The Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince came in and knelt down neatly: "Son respectfully welcomes father back to the palace."
Emperor Mingyan nodded, called out, and ordered, "Let's go."
So the imperial carriage moved forward again, and Emperor Mingyan said, "Everyone sit down and play a game."
The fourth and fifth princes agreed, sat down, set up the chess pieces and started playing again.
It’s not that Yan Shiyue doesn’t care, she just really doesn’t have the ability to do multiple things at once, to look ten steps ahead before making one move, to make her own moves while also watching other people’s moves. She is just not cut out for that!
So she really didn't realize that the Fifth Prince had been very cleverly paving the way for her. Anyway, she felt that this time the game went smoothly, and she sang happily all the way. She was the first to return to the camp and said with a smile: "Please let me win this time!"
Emperor Mingyan laughed and said, "You play chess like this, you just rush forward without paying attention to your head and not your feet. If no one helps you, you will never win!"
Yan Shiyue asked: "Who helped me?"
She looked at four and five, and Emperor Mingyan smiled and pointed to the chessboard and said, "Wulang set up a ladder for you, and he won with it."
The fifth prince smiled and said, "My son is not very good at playing, and besides, he is used to following Yue'er."
The fourth prince said, "Your camps are next to each other. I am following my father all the way."
Yan Shiyue's smile gradually faded, and he felt that he might be a little silly... Then the father and son finished playing charades, and when they were about to set up another plate, Yan Shiyue stood up and left: "You guys play, I don't want to play anymore! I'm going to see the kids!"
She just left.
The next day, around noon, they entered the city gate and everyone dispersed. Yan Shiyue did not enter the palace, but returned to the Duke's Mansion.
In the evening, Meng Min came over. She asked around and found out that this girl was indeed like Yan Shiyue said, good at martial arts but not literature, but at least she didn't have any bad deeds.
Meng Min first grabbed Yan Shitu and asked him something, then got angry at his blushing and shy look and slapped him: "You little heartless bastard!"
After entering the room, he said to her, "Sanlang is already this old, and this is the first time he has fallen in love with a girl. I don't want to stop him. He is a man of immature temper, so it would be better for him to marry a stronger girl. Anyway, no matter what, it won't be the third room's housekeeper's turn. As long as the girl is not bad in appearance, it will be what Sanlang wants."
Yan Shiyue felt that Meng Min was the typical "kind mother" in the story of a loving mother who often spoils her son. When she was choosing a wife for her son, she really didn't pay much attention to family background and was more concerned about whether her son would like her.
Yan Shiyue said, "Okay, you have the final say."
Meng Min said: "However, we still have to find a reason, let's see first."
The excuse is easy to find. Prince An’s birthday is just a few days away. Although it is a casual birthday, it will definitely be a lively day.
But this excuse was too formal, so Meng Min still held it a few days in advance, found an excuse for a ** banquet, and invited a large group of people.
This is a normal operation. The talent show is about to begin, and Yan Shitu will definitely arrange a marriage for the girls. He picked out the girls before the talent show, and then went to the palace in advance to ask for grace, so that the marriage could be arranged.
Yan Shiyue was worried and went over to take a look.
There were quite a lot of people coming, all of them brought their young ladies, and all of them were dressed up pretty and charmingly.
The group was just chatting when they heard someone announce that they had arrived at the Marquis Zhongping's mansion.
