"There are many ways to give gifts." Lu Yan said: "When giving gifts, you must first consider what the other party needs, and secondly, consider what you want to accomplish. You cannot give them blindly. If you give them incorrectly, you have not given them."

"Then back to Prince Yi, I know what I want to accomplish, but I still don't know what he needs. So this gift makes me murmur in my heart."

Jian Hongling also pondered for a moment: "Prince Yi really doesn't need much, right? What can a person like him lack?"

"Impossible, people must have needs." Lu Yan said firmly: "Does Prince Yi have friends? Does he have children?"

Jian Hongling nodded: "There must be some. Although Prince Yi is a bit dandy, he is generous and generous and has many friends. As for children, he has a legitimate daughter, a legitimate son and two common children. His legitimate son is studying in the Imperial College. , the legitimate daughter married to Liaozhou two years ago."

Lu Yan was shocked: "Where to marry? Liaozhou?"

Jian Hongling nodded again: "Yes, it's the Liaozhou you know. General Yuan is currently stationed in Liaozhou. Two years ago, the Holy Emperor gave Prince Yi's daughter the title of Princess Anhe, and gave her a marriage to General Yuan. She went to Liaozhou with the army. ”

Liaozhou is a very magical place. The entire Liaozhou is probably the area of ​​Inner Mongolia in modern Northeast China. It is very large, because it was all the territory of Beidi before and not the Dali Dynasty at all.

As a result, the current emperor slaughtered the Beidi royal family, so the territory of Beidi belonged to us, and the entire territory was divided into Liaozhou. There is only one Liaoyang County in Liaozhou, which is inhabited by some Han people who have moved there and who originally lived in the cracks of the border. Beidi tribes are scattered in other places, and the languages ​​​​are not understood, so no one can control it.

There is only one Liaoyang County Magistrate in Liaozhou, and each term is ruined. The magistrate of Liaozhou remains vacant. It turns out that the Northern Xinjiang troops who fought against Beidi were directly stationed in Liaozhou to guard the various ministries in Beidi and usually open up wasteland and so on. But the effect was not good, so the court still had to send people to escort a large amount of military pay every year.

In the book, the second prince fell because he colluded with the Beidi people and wanted to harm the prince who was escorting the military pay. This hit the emperor's pain point and was directly demoted to a commoner.

Lu Yan was shocked: "What's the difference between this and getting married?"

Jian Hongling: "That's a bit different. At least she is marrying someone from our Dali Dynasty, and Yuan Xiukai, a general, still dare not be disrespectful to the princess. It would be wrong if they get married."

"That's true." Lu Yan said: "But there are still many things that are very similar to the marriage. At least she has to live in a bitter cold place and cannot return to Beijing all year round. And General Yuan is a general. How old is he?"

Jian Hongling: "General Yuan is thirty-two."

Lu Yan breathed a sigh of relief: "That's okay, okay." She was only in her early thirties.

Jian Hongling: "But Princess Anhe is only sixteen."

Lu Yan spurted out: "What the hell?"

Jian Hongling shrugged: "There's nothing we can do about it. The eldest daughter of His Majesty is only eight years old. And this marriage was requested by the General's Mansion. The Yuan family almost died in the war, and Yuan Xiukai is the only one left in this generation. Yuan Xiukai only had his soldiers in his mind. For so many years, his family tried to force him to marry a wife but couldn't catch anyone else, so his mother had no choice but to go to the Holy One, so the Holy One granted him a marriage and sent the wife directly to him."

Lu Yan was stunned when she heard this: "What do you think of Princess An and yourself? Where is Prince Yi? What do you think?"

"Prince Yi must not be happy. It is said that he had a big quarrel with the Holy Father about this matter before." Jian Hongling said: "But Princess Anhe seems to be very happy. She persuaded Prince Yi to get better. It seems that she asked for this marriage herself. .”

Lu Yan was shocked: "This Princess Anhe is really a strange person."

Jian Hongling shook her head: "The noble ladies in the capital are very strange when they mention Princess An He, and think she is crazy."

"I can probably understand it somewhat." Lu Yan said, "Although I don't know if I understand it correctly."

A sixteen-year-old girl is willing to go to the frontier. There are two possibilities, one for her lover and one for freedom.

Yuan Xiukai has not returned to Beijing for many years. In fact, Lu Yan doesn't believe how much Princess An He can love him. Lu Yan prefers freedom.

If Princess Anhe didn't go to the border, she probably wouldn't be able to become a princess, she would just be Princess Anhe. A princess has a princess palace, but as a princess, there is a high probability that she will find a well-matched nobleman as her husband, marry into the family, and become the mistress of the house for life.

For most noble ladies, there is nothing wrong with such a step-by-step life. But for the eagle that aims at the nine heavens, the chicken coop will never be its destination, even if the chicken coop is made of gold.

Does Prince Yi, who raised his daughter to be an eagle, really have no ambition at all? Is it really his wish for him to live drunkenly in the capital?

Lu Yan couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
