Ji Changying and Gongye Siheng were considered quite old among unmarried men and women, both in the Dali period and in Northern Yan.
Ji Changying was already eighteen years old, and Gongye Siheng was already twenty-one.
After getting Ji Changying's consent, their marriage was soon put on the agenda.
The Emperor Gongyeji of Northern Yan was so excited that he ordered his ministers to bring a lot of betrothal gifts from Northern Yan to Dali, so that the two could get married as soon as possible.
Jiang Qianruo also fought hard for their marriage and passed away on the fourth day after Dalicheng's wedding.
When she left, she had a smile on her face: "At least I didn't delay you, I am satisfied."
She glanced at Prince Ping and Lady Zhou with longing, holding one in each hand. "I'm an unfit mother. No matter how good or bad my life has been, I've reached the end. You two have both had a hard life. You must support each other in the future. Mother... I'm sorry... for you."
After she finished speaking, her hands slowly dropped down and her eyes gradually dimmed.
Emperor Mingde's eyes widened in horror. He pushed the two men aside and quickly took their place. "Don't leave! What will I do if you leave?"
Jiang Qianruo took her last breath, raised her eyelids with great effort, and looked at him: "In the next life...see you later."
After saying this, Jiang Qianruo's hands dropped weakly, and his chest returned to calm.
Emperor Mingde was like a piece of wood, standing there in a daze, like a wooden sculpture.
Jiang Qianruo's funeral was extremely grand and was handled personally by Emperor Mingde without any help from anyone else.
After Jiang Qianruo's funeral, Mr. Huang left the capital without any regrets. He would never set foot in this place again in his life.
King Heping of Zhou cried very sadly.
Although the two did not grow up with Jiang Qianruo, after spending these years together, Jiang Qianruo has been very considerate to them, and both of them feel the love of a mother in her.
As soon as the funeral was over, Emperor Mingde made a prompt decision to abdicate in favor of Zhongli Zhou.
"It's up to you to decide whether to kill Prince Yi and Zhongli Jinghui or not. Also, I'm planning to leave the Ji, Zhang, and other humble clans for the new emperor to show his favor. It's up to you to decide whether to reinstate them! Remember, you can't allow one family to dominate, nor can you allow them to become a secondary aristocratic family. Just be clear about how to manage this."
Emperor Mingde seemed to have aged from the inside out overnight. He explained the matter briefly with a dull look and no longer paid attention to state affairs.
After the ministers tried to persuade him to stay several times according to the rules, he accepted it calmly.
After all, they have become accustomed to Zhonglizhou handling all kinds of things in recent years.
The first thing Zhongli Zhou did after taking office was to confer titles on people.
The title "Grand Princess" was added before Zhou's name, becoming the Grand Princess.
Ji Changying was also promoted to Princess Hehua, and enjoyed the right to participate in state affairs and discuss national policies with the emperor.
As for Prince Yi, Zhonglizhou held the evidence that he had sent someone to assassinate Jiang Qianruo, but he did not deal with it and planned to wait and see what would happen.
He also withdrew the guards from Prince Duan's mansion, but did not clear Prince Duan's name. He only allowed him to live like an ordinary person for the rest of his life.
He did not immediately recruit people from the Ji family. Instead, he ordered people to secretly observe the character and talents of the Ji family members and look for useful people.
Half a year passed in a flash.
Gongye Siheng looked at Ji Changying, who was busy writing memorials, with a resentful look in his eyes: "When will I be given a legitimate status?"
Ji Changying was stunned when she heard this: "What status? Didn't we get married a long time ago?"
"I got it in Dali, but I don't have an official title in Beiyan yet. Father has urged me several times."
After the wedding in Dali, the two had not returned to Beiyan to hold the ceremony. Everyone in Beiyan only knew that the prince was married, but no one had even seen the princess.
Ji Changying felt a little apologetic when she thought of this: "I've been too busy recently and almost forgot about this. I'll sort out the things on hand and figure out when it's appropriate to go back."
Gongye Siheng's eyes flashed with surprise, and he stepped forward, hugged her and walked towards the bed: "To show your gratitude, your husband will sacrifice his beauty to serve you for once!"
Ji Changying hugged his neck and smiled: "Then I want to be on top."
Gongye Siheng's eyes sparkled: "You can pick them..."
······
When Ji Changying went to Beiyan, he took Ren Dongnan, Zhou and Ji Fengshou with him.
Lao Lu was re-used by Zhongli Zhou and transferred to the Ministry of Works, and he could not leave it.
Ji Fengyi currently holds a sinecure and cannot leave.
After Ji Mingxuan passed the imperial examination and became a scholar two years ago, he was almost forced to marry someone because someone had taken him off the list. So, Mrs. Hu immediately arranged for him to marry someone.
Unexpectedly, Zhongli Zhou personally acted as a matchmaker.
It was Captain Kou’s only daughter, Kou Yunyi.
After the two families sat down together to discuss and asked the parties involved, they decided on it.
The two have just given birth to a son, and it is the time to take care of the child, so of course they cannot be separated.
Ji Minghao was at a critical time in discussing marriage, and Hu Shi could not leave, so they were forced to stay in Dali.
Ji Changchuan was deeply resentful because of this: "How can you abandon the head of the family and go out to have fun? This is outrageous!"
Ji Changying patted his chest and said, "Keep trying, brother! This time, try to pass the imperial examination in one go. It will bring honor to your family and make them famous."
Two years ago, Ji Fengyi and his classmates took the exam together.
Ji Fengyi was lucky, after all, it was the result of years of accumulation, and he only passed the imperial examination and became a Juren.
Ji Mingxuan took steady steps and passed the examination to become a scholar.
Ji Changchuan and Ji Minghao are not doing so well.
