Traveling through the ancient times

Chapter 65: The Son Grows Up Without His Father

In the carriage, Jiang Ruixue was still angry...

Seeing this, Nian Chuhua comforted her, "Okay, Ruixue, don't be angry. It's not worth getting angry at that brainless person."

Jiang Ruixue sighed, "In ancient times, these young ladies would use their power to bully others and always like to pull people down. It's none of your business if Lu Mingqian doesn't like her. He is disgusting and looking for trouble with you. Fortunately, Lu Mingqian has some vision. If he fell in love with that brainless woman, I would despise him."

"Yes, don't be angry. Don't let that kind of anger ruin your health." Nian Chuhua stroked Jiang Ruixue's back to help her calm down.

Seeing Jiang Ruixue getting angry with others because of her, Nianchuhua put her head on Jiang Ruixue's shoulder and said softly, "Ruixue, thank you for standing up for me."

Jiang Ruixue punched Nianchuhua in anger, "I brought you here, your business is my business, of course I have to step up, why are you saying thank you, don't you think of me as a sister?"

"No way! Having a sister like you in my life is enough!" Nian Chuhua exclaimed exaggeratedly. She really felt that it was worth the trip to come here and meet a good sister like Jiang Ruixue.

Phew~ Jiang Ruixue was amused by the way Nianchu painted, "That's good to know. Be nice to me in the future, and don't just care about love over friendship."

"It's unfair. When did I ever put love before friendship? I have always only kissed you." Nian Chuhua said as he slapped Jiang Ruixue on the face.

"Stop drooling."

"If you don't want to take it, then don't take it."

Hahaha……

The two of them laughed and joked, and the unpleasantness that had just occurred dissipated a lot.

Hua Ling felt relieved when she heard the young lady's laughter. She was just afraid that the young lady would be unhappy because of Princess Changning's words...

Tian Qing had already gone to the Third Prince's Mansion and reported to Lu Mingqian what had just happened.

After listening to this, Lu Mingqian was silent for a while and had some thoughts in his mind.

The Tuge Kingdom in the east recently wrote a letter saying that it would send an envoy to pay tribute, and it will arrive in Kyoto soon.

The king of Tuge also mentioned that Tuge's seventh prince Adamu would also come with the delegation, presumably with the intention of a marriage alliance.

Since Princess Changning wants to get married so much, why not let her go to marry? This will just solve the king's urgent problem. Lu Mingqian immediately went to the palace and made this suggestion to the king.

When the king received the letter from Tuge Kingdom, he was really troubled for a while. He only had one daughter, Lu Jinse, and he didn't want to let her precious pearl go to marry. He was thinking of a reason to refuse Tuge's marriage proposal.

The king looked at Lu Mingqian and asked, "Do you know that Princess Changning likes you?"

Everyone in Kyoto knows that Princess Changning likes Lu Mingqian. The king had intended to arrange a marriage for the two before, but Lu Mingqian refused to agree, and the matter was left unfinished. Now he suddenly proposes to let Princess Changning marry?

"I know, but I can't just marry every girl I like. My prince's palace can't accommodate her." Lu Mingqian was not humble at all at this moment. He knew that there were many young ladies from noble families in Kyoto who liked him, but so what? He didn't like them.

"This Changning is indeed a little bit spoiled and willful, but she is the legitimate daughter of the Mingyuan Marquisate after all, and it is okay for her to marry you as the prince's consort." The Mingyuan Marquisate is a hereditary title, and although the current Mingyuan Marquis does not have the talent of the old marquis, he is not mediocre either. He currently serves as the Minister of Rites in the Ministry of Rites.

"Your son has no interest in Princess Changning. The most urgent task now is to resolve the issue of the visiting delegation from the Tuge Kingdom." Lu Mingqian said selflessly.

"Well, since you have no intention, then let Changning marry the seventh prince of Tuge." The king had no objection to this matter. It happened that the person who received the Tuge delegation this time was Marquis Mingyuan.

Princess Changning would probably never have thought that she was just angry for a moment and wanted to find fault with Nianchu Hua, so Lu Mingqian directly asked her to marry Tu Ge far away.

However, the king looked at his tall and handsome son and remembered another thing that was giving him a headache. "You have no interest in Changning, so which lady do you like? Tell father, father has arranged a marriage for you. You are not a child anymore, it's time to choose a concubine!"

"Father, I am not in a hurry. Besides, my two elder brothers have not yet married, so I cannot rush them first."

Ouch~ It would be fine if he didn't mention this. As soon as he talked about these three sons, the king felt a throbbing pain in his head. The three sons are all in their early twenties, but none of them have married. This is really driving the old father crazy!

"Look at you guys, this one is not in a hurry, that one is not in a hurry, do you want to make me anxious to death?

Look at your imperial aunt, she is two years younger than me, and her grandson can run away. Lin Fei is the same age as you, right? Aren’t you two very close? Why don’t you learn from him?

I am an old man, I don’t know how many years I have left to live, my little grandchildren, when will the emperor see you again…”

Lu Mingqian looked at the king expressionlessly, crying and making a scene, and remained indifferent.

This drama is played out every once in a while, and his ears are callused from hearing it so much.

"Father, you are still young and strong. Why don't you have a few more children?" Lu Mingqian thought it was a good idea. If he had a few more brothers, the king wouldn't have to keep an eye on the three of them and order them around all the time.

"Asshole, listen to what you said, is this reasonable? I am doing this for your own good. I want you to get married and have children as soon as possible. How happy it would be to have children around you.

When you have your own children, you will understand my painstaking efforts. "As the king spoke, he recalled the time when Lu Mingqian and his two brothers were young.

The little kids were so cute, following him all day long and calling him “father”, which made his heart melt. But in the blink of an eye, they have grown up, with wooden faces all day long. If there is nothing to do, they may not come to see their old father for ten days, half a month, or even several months. It is so sad...

"If your Majesty has nothing else to say, I will take my leave first." Lu Mingqian didn't want to listen to the king's nagging anymore. He also wanted to go and see the New Year painting. He was wronged when he went out today, and wondered how the girl is doing now.

"Why retreat? Just accompany me to have lunch before you leave."

"Please eat by yourself. I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave now." After saying this, Lu Mingqian turned around and walked out without waiting for the king to speak.

The king looked at Lu Mingqian's departing back. He sighed helplessly at this son who made him both happy and anxious. His son had finally grown up and had his own ideas...

Looking at Li Changde standing beside him, this old friend who had been with him for decades, he smiled silently and said, "Go to Funing Palace."

If you don't eat with me, I will go find your mother to eat with me, hum~

Eunuch Changde looked at the king, and showed his childish side only after several princes had visited him. He smiled and sang as he prepared to go to Funing Palace.

He then supported the king and went to the Queen's Funing Palace.
