Jiang Baichuan thought about it and nodded again and again: "Okay, I will tell your mother about this matter and ask her to prepare it as soon as possible within a month. But this husband and wife relationship is really your own nonsense."
He was not suspicious of the third princess, but was worried that the emperor had some plan. Seeing how the eldest brother treated the third princess, it didn't seem like he had no feelings for her.
"Yes, it's all the child's fault."
When Jiang Ling thought of that night, a look of guilt appeared on his face.
Seeing this, Jiang Baichuan didn't know what to say. After all, the third princess was better than the eldest princess. It didn't matter whether the wedding was held earlier or later. If it was done hastily, it would cost more money.
"Got it, you all go back and rest."
After the two sons left, the seriousness on Jiang Baichuan's face disappeared and he grinned. The eldest son also found the person he likes. Not bad, not bad, it's rare for such a lucky charm to bloom.
It doesn't matter if they are members of the royal family. They are not favored anyway. As long as they are loyal to the Jiang family, it's fine. It doesn't matter if my mother is also a member of the royal family.

On the way back, Jiang Sheng would steal a glance at his brother from time to time, his eyes full of curiosity. How could his dignified and polite brother do such a bold thing?
Jiang Ling felt uncomfortable being stared at and glared at him: "Okay, stop looking. When are you planning on getting married?"
"Well, according to the rules, my marriage should naturally be arranged after my brother's. I'm not in a hurry. Brother, tell me the truth, do you like the third princess?"
“…”
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Jiang Sheng smiled even more happily: "Oh, it's rare that big brother has someone he likes. It's normal for him to like my sister-in-law. The emperor is not good to my sister-in-law, so I just hope she won't side with the emperor."
Jiang Ling didn't say anything. If she really became a spy, then their marriage would no longer be possible. He would just find a farm for her to live out her old age.
If An Xin stays in the Jiang family, then she will be his wife, and he will naturally protect her for the rest of her life.
All choices depend on her.
The news spread the next day. Xiao Zhu ran excitedly to the Lotus Garden and saw her master standing by the pond looking at the koi. She happily shouted, "Princess, good news! There is good news!"
Li Xue turned her head to look at her and asked in confusion: "Good news, what good news?"
"I heard from the people in the Marquis' Mansion that the mistress went to prepare the wedding things early in the morning, saying that you and the eldest son will be married within a month. Hehe, the Marquis' Mansion seems very anxious."
"He must value the princess, otherwise he would just be dragging it out."
Xiao Zhu muttered, "There could be other reasons. If a war breaks out on the border, we don't know when the wedding can take place. It's understandable that the Marquis' Mansion is anxious."
Li Xue was stunned and a little dazed: "... within a month, why are you so anxious?"
"Princess, what are you thinking about?"
"Nothing, I just feel it's too fast. I'm not ready yet. I don't know if there are any rules in the Marquis' Mansion. What if I make a mistake?"
Xiao Zhu rolled her eyes and said soothingly, "It's okay, Princess. Don't think too much. The Marquis' Mansion is a military mansion and there aren't so many rules. Look, the old lady said yesterday that there's no need to pay respects."
"Just go twice a month, in the middle and at the end of the month."
"If I were in a civil servant's house, I would have to pay my respects to the mistress and grandmother every day. It would be really tiring to be so busy. Now I can worry much less."
Li Xue also felt that the people in the Marquis' Mansion were easy to get along with. Everyone did their own thing and basically no one interfered, so it was very free. If she wanted to go out, the housekeeper was also very easy to talk to.
Well, it's nice to spend my last days here.
"Xiao Zhu, let's go out for a walk this afternoon."
"Ah, Princess, aren't you going out with the eldest son?"
Li Xue shook her head and refused: "No, Qingzhou has too many things to do. It would not be good if he were to accompany me. It would be better for us to go out for a walk on our own."
Xiao Zhu thought about it and said: "Okay, then Xiao Zhu will accompany the princess out."
As the master and servant were talking, Jiang Ling walked into the yard and coughed lightly: "I'm not busy. I can take Xue'er to the jewelry store this afternoon."
"jewelry?"
"Well, since we're getting married, we naturally need to buy jewelry. Buy whatever you like. We're getting married in a month, so it can be done if we book in advance."
Li Xue looked up at him and asked softly, "Okay, I understand."
In the afternoon, the two of them visited several jewelry stores. Li Xue chose a head ornament she liked, and when she heard the price, the corners of her mouth twitched. It was so expensive, several thousand taels of silver for one head ornament.
After being tired from shopping, I had lunch at a restaurant.
"The food at Qianweiju is really good. If the food at home doesn't suit your taste, it's okay to eat out. We only eat out together once a month on weekdays."
"The rest of the time you eat in your own courtyard. We'll go to the maids later and choose a few servants to serve you. Let the ones in the palace rest more."
Li Xue's eyes lit up. She also didn't like the maids in the palace serving her. They just kept whispering those words in her ears. She just wanted to live an easy life in her last days.
"Okay, thank you Qingzhou."
Seeing her happy look, Jiang Ling felt more at ease. After gradually replacing the maids in the palace, even if the emperor wanted to do something, he would not be able to interfere in the harem.
In the later period, whether the maids live or die depends on whether they know what is good for them.
It was not until dark that they selected the right person and had him brought back to the mansion. Then Li Xue and Jiang Ling walked towards the mansion. They felt tired and a little sleepy.
"Are you sleepy?"
Li Xue: "...Yeah, a little."
"Then let's go back."
"If you're too tired to come out tomorrow, I'll have the embroidery aunt go directly to your house. You can just choose the pattern and style, and let them make your wedding dress."
Jiang Ling has made all the arrangements, so a month is enough time.
Li Xue nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to Qingzhou."
"Well, how's your health lately?"
"Fortunately, I've been much better recently. Maybe I was too tired from traveling before."
Jiang Ling sent the person to the back house and turned to leave.
Li Xue stopped the person and said, "Wait, I, I saw that your purse is a bit old, so I embroidered one for you."
She sniffed the orchid on the light blue purse, reached out to take it, and curled her lips slightly: "Okay, thank you for your hard work."
After the people walked away, Xiao Zhu said with a smile: "Princess, the eldest master is so considerate and thoughtful to you. He even bought several servants for you. From now on, he will only listen to you."
"It's much better than the maids in the palace. We have our own people in the courtyard now. From now on, we can eat whatever we want without any restrictions. How great is that?"
Li Xue hummed, "I think it's great too, but it's a pity that days like this won't last too long. Let's go back and rest. I'm a little tired."
Xiao Zhu didn't understand and looked at her back with a confused look. The princess was sad again.
The master and servant simply washed up and went to bed early.
