Chapter 686: Big Chapter. Zhao Yan married Yan Wu

In the following days, Zhou Qinglian and Zhou Handan had a good contact with Wensi and Wennian and talked with them for a long time.

Of course, everything was done openly and there was no private affair.

Every time they went out, the Queen, the Emperor, Jiang Zhao, Chen Zhining and the others knew about it.

This way, a lot of trouble can be saved.

Besides, since the girl is going on a blind date with Wensi and Wennian, she can't do anything sneaky.

They are all led by the elders. The elders chat in the main hall, while the younger ones chat in the backyard. This is in accordance with the rules.

Wensi likes Qinglian very much, and Wennian also likes Handan very much.

Not long after, Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining helped them arrange their marriage.

When the emperor and the empress found out, they helped them get promoted to higher titles. They were previously Prince Wei and Prince Wu, but now they are Prince Wei and Prince Wu.

He also granted a prince's palace and asked Wensi and Wennian to go to the palace and choose a date to get married.

The emperor and empress also bestowed a lot of gold, silver and jewelry.

Since Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining had so many children, it cost a lot of money to set up each child's own family, so the emperor and empress often contributed to them from their own private treasury.

The retired emperor and the empress dowager also contributed a lot and took out a lot of silver from their own private treasuries. Of course, they also left a portion for Wenle and Wenyi respectively.

The Empress Dowager took a lot of silver. She felt that her private treasury was almost emptied by the two children, Wensi and Wennian.

In the end, Wensi and Wennian married the two sisters from the Zhou family in the winter of the following year.

Because Wensi was older, he got married first, followed by Wennian.

In fact, Chen Zhining had thought about letting the two of them get married together before, but since their identities were so noble, it might be inappropriate to let them get married together.

Moreover, if they get married together, both parties will have to work hard together, and their energy will be very scarce, so let them get married one after another.

Wensi got married a month ago, and Wennian got married a month later, which is pretty much the same.

This year's New Year was pretty good.

After that, Xiao Zhaoyan was the only one left at home.

Wensi and Wennian both moved to the newly granted prince's palace, and the other sons except Wenqing all moved out. Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining felt that the house suddenly became empty and deserted.

In the past, when the children were at home, it was very lively with all the chattering, not like it is now.

But now, my children have their own happiness, so I am very relieved.

Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining stayed alone at home for a few days. During the festival, when Wensi and Wennian returned home, they saw someone they had never expected.

It was Yan Wu, the national teacher of Loulan.

Yan Wu hurried over, bowed to Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining and said, "Your Highness the Ninth Prince, Your Majesty the Ninth Prince's Consort, please don't blame me. Our Queen of Loulan is pregnant again, and she is suffering from severe morning sickness, so she can't stand the bumps on the way. She had already set out to deliver the gifts, but she didn't expect to turn back."

"The King of Loulan had no choice. He couldn't let it go, so he followed him back."

"When the queen's pregnancy becomes more stable in a few days, we will let her come to visit."

"..."

Yan Wu stood tall and slender, speaking to Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining in the main hall.

It was only at this time that Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining realized that their Princess Chang'an was pregnant at this moment, which made Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining's eyes full of surprise.

Before, Princess Chang'an was pregnant with the Crown Prince of Loulan, which was already a great blessing. Unexpectedly, not long after her marriage, she became pregnant again.

Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining nodded with great satisfaction. Chen Zhining then said with some distress: "This child...she got pregnant too quickly."

"If I give birth, I'm afraid it will be hard."

Hearing this, Yan Wu immediately smiled and said to Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining: "Your Highness the Ninth Prince and His Majesty the Ninth Prince's Consort, don't worry. Our Chang'an Grand Princess has her own doctor from Loulan to take care of her."

"The prescription of our Loulan royal family is truly miraculous. It can help Princess Chang'an give birth naturally without causing any harm to her body."

After hearing this, Chen Zhining felt relieved. He thought, if it really doesn't work, he will give her a few pieces of Hongfu Qitian Pills and let her take them. I believe her body will be much healthier.

Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining were both very worried about Princess Chang'an.

Chen Zhining smiled and said to Yan Wu: "Master Loulan, you don't know that there are many happy events in our family."

"You knew Wenqing's wife, our eldest daughter-in-law, before. She is also pregnant. The doctor said it's a girl, which is really good."

"I believe that the other children will also bring good news one after another."

Hearing this, Yan Wu smiled and said to Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining: "Your Highness the Ninth Prince and His Majesty the Ninth Prince's Consort are truly blessed!"

"You two are blessed with longevity and good fortune, and have many descendants. I'm sure your grandchildren will surround you."

"..."

Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining smiled at each other.

Yan Wu said again: "Alas, I wonder where Princess Taiping is at this moment?"

"Princess Taiping should be in the house, feeling bored, right? After all, Princess Taiping and her brother Wenqing are the only ones left in the Ninth Prince's mansion."

Hearing this, Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining's faces suddenly darkened.

Jiang Zhao said, "Okay, okay, you came here just to mention Princess Taiping, right?"

Yan Wu heard this but did not refute it. She said to Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining, "Your Highness the Ninth Prince and His Majesty the Ninth Prince's Consort, it's not just that."

"However, this time I came here mainly to find Princess Taiping and have some fun with her."

"Also, Yan Wu has a letter that he wants to show to His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince and His Royal Highness's Consort. This letter is written to you two, and the King of Loulan has also sent you a lot of gifts."

Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining nodded and glanced outside the main hall. There were indeed quite a few gifts outside the main hall.

They were somewhat surprised. They did not expect that the King of Loulan would bring them so many gifts. It did not look like a gift, but rather a request.

Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining didn't think much about it at this time. They glanced at Yan Wu and saw that he was becoming more and more handsome. He looked like a young man in his twenties, and was extremely handsome.

They nodded slightly and looked quite pleasing to the eye.

Chen Zhining smiled at him and said, "Go down and play with Princess Taiping. She is in the back garden right now."

She was optimistic about this boy, so she let Yan Wu go.

Yan Wu was stunned when she heard this, and then she laughed: "Thank you, Ninth Prince's Consort."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining studied his back, and Jiang Zhao shook his head and said, "The more I look at him, the less I like him."

Chen Zhining smiled and said, "Such a little boy, he looks handsome and has noble character. I heard from the King of Loulan that he has never slept with anyone before, and there has never been a woman around him."

"If in the end, our Zhaoyan has some feelings for him, that would be good."

"And you see, this Yan Wu should also have some affection for our Zhao Yan."

"If he didn't have a good impression, why would he come here again and again?"

"There are thousands of mountains and rivers between Loulan and Zhou and Song. It's such a long distance. You say... He is a national teacher. Isn't it good for him to stay in Loulan? How can he come here every time to run around for the King of Loulan? After all, he likes our Zhaoyan very much."

Hearing this, Jiang Zhao pondered for a while, then nodded: "What you said does make sense."

"This kid is pretty good."

"But I'm thinking, why not wait until Zhaoyan is a little older before marrying her off."

"Our Zhaoyan is only 16 years old this year."

Chen Zhining said, "...Oh, 16 is not young. Let's tell the two children to get engaged or married first, and then have children when they are adults. That's it."

Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining had their own considerations.

Chen Zhining turned his head slightly and took the letter from Jiang Zhao's hand: "Let me see what the King of Loulan wrote in the letter. Does it mention anything about Chang'an?"

They looked through it and found that the King of Loulan had sent a thick letter with many things written on it, a total of twenty-six pages.

The first twenty-four cards all record the Grand Princess's recent situation and talk about their grandchildren's recent situation.

Jiang Zhao looked at the 25th one, and was surprised by the small footprints and handprints on it: "????"

"Hey, are these our grandson's footprints and handprints?!"

It's tiny, and looks really magical.

Chen Zhining looked at them for a long time, then smiled. They looked at Jiang Zhao and tears flowed from their eyes: "These kids, oh, they are really considerate."

"This is our grandson Hehebao...hahaha."

Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining had gone to Loulan before and met He He Bao. But at that time, he could not speak much and only knew how to drink milk in his mother's arms. It was unknown whether he could see him and call them grandpa and grandma if he returned to Loulan at this time.

Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining were both full of love.

When he saw the 26th letter, Chen Zhining was suddenly stunned.

She looked at the contents of the letter carefully and was completely stunned.

The letter read: "Yan Wu is in love with my younger sister Zhao Yan, so I am begging the Ninth Prince to propose marriage for her. I also hope that my father-in-law and mother-in-law can agree."

"!!!"

Jiang Zhao's face suddenly turned dark, and Chen Zhining was also confused.

The two of them looked at the letter carefully and finally found a gift list on the back of the letter. The gift list was densely written, and the total price was about 20 taels of silver.

Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining were both stunned when they saw such a heavy gift list. It was a little different from the one given to the eldest princess of Chang'an when she got married, but it was not much different. It was more than Zhaoyang's.

This is normal, because Zhaoyang got married in Kyoto. If Zhaoyan married to Loulan, a place so far away, and the gift list was not more than Zhaoyang's, how could Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining agree?

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining looked at each other and found that the gift list was impeccable. Now they had actually proposed marriage for Yan Wu.

Jiang Zhao was a little angry and said to Chen Zhining, "Look at you! This brat is so abrupt and makes a surprise attack."

"If you want to propose marriage, why don't you come and say it in person?"

Chen Zhining smiled: "I guess they were planning to come and say it in person this time, but they didn't expect that our eldest princess Chang'an suddenly felt unwell, so she didn't come and say it in person, but wrote a letter instead."

"It must be a little abrupt, but I think the sincerity is good."

"With full sincerity, I gave Zhaoyan a betrothal gift of 20 silver coins."

"In order to marry Zhaoyan, I really spent a lot of money."

Chen Zhining was still happy in his heart, and said to Jiang Zhao: "In fact, I think Zhao Yan and Yan Wu are not bad, and there may really be some fate between them. I still remember that when Yan Wu first saw us, he said that there was some fate between them and Yan Wu."

Chen Zhining pondered for a while, then smiled at Jiang Zhao and said, "What do you think? Do you plan to marry your child to him?"

Jiang Zhao thought about it and hesitated for a while: "Actually, I really don't want to marry Zhaoyan to Loulan, but since our Chang'an Grand Princess has married far away, then I think if the two of them go there, the two sisters will take care of each other."

"How about this, let's ask Zhaoyan tonight what she really thinks."

Chen Zhining nodded.

In the evening, Yan Wu and Zhao Yan came over to eat together.

At the dinner table, Zhaoyan was fed so much by Yan Wu that he ate two bowls of rice.

Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining looked at Yan Wu's affectionate look and couldn't help but feel a pang of pain in their teeth. Tsk tsk tsk, this kid hasn't agreed to it yet, why is he being so intimate in front of them?

Zhao Yan was also a little shy at this time. She didn't expect Yan Wu to treat her like this in front of Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining. Oh my god, she was really embarrassed.

Chen Zhining said to Zhaoyan, "Ahem, Zhaoyan, after dinner, come to my mother's room. I have something to tell you."

Zhaoyan was stunned for a moment, then nodded, quickly left the table, and followed Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining into the house.

In the room, Chen Zhining asked Zhao Yan nervously: "By the way, little Zhao Yan, do you like Yan Wu?"

"Your brother-in-law specially sent us a letter, saying that he was seeking marriage for Yan Wu and wanted to marry you to Loulan."

"If you like it, we will agree. If you don't like it, then forget it and we will find another family for you."

"Now, you are the only one left to my mother and father. We will always have to worry about your marriage."

Jiang Zhao and Chen Zhining both looked at Zhaoyan lovingly and touched her little head. Her hair was very soft.

"Zhao Yan, are you willing? Father and mother both hope that you can be happy."

Hearing this, Zhaoyan smiled.

She had a nice smile.

Under the flickering candlelight, Zhao Yan opened her red lips and said, "I do."

In the sixth year of the Xin Dynasty, Princess Taiping married Yan Wu, the national teacher of Loulan.

The whole country of Zhou, Song and Loulan celebrated.
