Parents are busy farming

Ye Zifen frowned and asked, "Did something happen again?"

Madam Qi sighed and said in a heavy voice, "There's news from the palace that the Queen may not be able to hold on any longer. Shouldn't we prepare in advance and pack up all those bright and beautiful things? I'm afraid your wedding will have to be delayed again."

After hearing this, Ye Zifen's mood suddenly became heavy.

Her marriage to Zhang Gaoyi was already full of twists and turns. She had finally waited for the wedding date to approach, but now it had been postponed again because of the Queen Mother.

She turned her head and looked at Zhang Gaoyi, and found that his face was a little gloomy, and there was a hint of dissatisfaction and displeasure in his eyes.

Ye Zifen then said to Madam Qi, "Then let's get started on the preparations! And let's notify the General's Mansion to start preparing as well!"

Nanny Qi agreed, then turned around and began to arrange relevant matters.

As she walked, she couldn't help but mutter to herself, "Why didn't the queen leave earlier or later, but had to die at this critical moment?"

Ye Zifen couldn't help but find it a little funny as she listened to Aunt Qi's complaints gradually fading away.

Everyone seemed to be speaking up for them.

Zhang Gaoyi, on this side, lessened his coldness a little because Ye Zifen also paid attention to the General's Mansion.

Ye Zifen looked at the scenery in the distance and said calmly, "After the Queen is gone, the Crown Prince is actually safer. After all, the Crown Prince's maternal family has been weakened by the Emperor, and it can be said that they have no real power."

Zhang Gaoyi frowned slightly and asked in confusion: "So, the one with the least power is the crown prince. Is the emperor really afraid of the monopoly of power by his relatives? Or does he really trust us so much?"

Ye Zifen nodded gently, with a hint of deep meaning in her eyes: "That should be it! In fact, the prince is old enough to be our father. What else does he not understand? If I were the prince, I should be considering training the next successor now."

Zhang Gaoyi couldn't help but sigh: "From what you said, it seems that you are dissatisfied with the emperor for doing too much."

Ye Zifen smiled slightly and retorted: "I didn't say that, I just think the emperor is too cautious. However, this is also good, at least it can ensure the stability of the court. By the way, the foreign envoys should be leaving Daxia soon!"

She suddenly changed the subject, catching Zhang Gaoyi off guard.

Zhang Gaoyi thought for a moment and replied, "Yes, it is indeed fast."

Ye Zifen asked, "Have you set a date?"

Zhang Gaoyi drank tea and thought while saying, "The Ministry of Rites reported this matter during the morning court a few days ago. The emperor asked about the situation of the foreign envoys, and the Minister of Rites said that it seemed that they did not want to leave so soon."

Ye Zifen smiled and nodded: "It's just as I imagined."

Zhang Gaoyi continued, "They should be leaving soon, otherwise the other king will think that something happened to them on the way, which will affect the relationship between the two countries."

Ye Zifen agreed and said, "I think so too. How about we go over there together tomorrow to persuade them?"

Zhang Gaoyi frowned and said, "I think it's more appropriate to go today. If we run into the Queen... the Ministry of Rites will probably be very busy if both sides meet. It's better to get them to leave as soon as possible."

Ye Zifen thought for a moment and nodded, "Then let's go today. I have almost arranged everything here. Is there nothing to do in your barracks today?"

Zhang Gaoyi shook his head: "There is always something going on in the barracks, not to mention that we have to deal with the navy's affairs at the seaside."

Ye Zifen stood up and said, "That's right. I'll have someone prepare a carriage and go to the palace right away."

This visit by foreign envoys is also an important diplomatic event. I wonder how they will report to their own countries after they return?"

Ye Zifen raised the corner of her mouth slightly, revealing a mysterious smile: "That depends on whether they get what they want. But I think they are very satisfied now."

The two fell into silence, each thinking about the future situation.

Not long after the two left, another imperial edict came from the palace.

But after the two of them left, Nanny Qi had to send someone to bring them back, and then she started asking the eunuch about things in the palace.

This time, the eunuch said directly without hiding anything: "The queen probably doesn't have many days left, probably only four or five days. The emperor is afraid that it will affect Princess Fuxia's future, so he wants Princess Fuxia and the general to get married in three days."

Hearing this, Aunt Qi opened her mouth wide and said in surprise: "Three days, this time is too tight, the princess hasn't even had time to make her wedding dress!"

The father-in-law replied cheerfully: "Madame Qi, don't worry. The imperial concubine in the palace has already started to prepare for these matters. Our princess just needs to be at ease and prepare to be a bride. Whether it is betrothal gifts or dowry, the palace will be responsible for arranging them properly. In addition, there is also the Ministry of Rites to help with wedding-related affairs! Besides, don't we have an experienced old nanny like you? This little thing is simply a piece of cake for you!"

When Aunt Qi heard this, she smiled and shook her head, "Don't tease me, I'm so old, how can I still be worthy of being called a sister. Besides, I have never experienced such a thing as a princess getting married!"

She sighed and continued, "We need to find out more about what we need to pay attention to. The main reason is that these three days are too tight and we still have a lot of things to prepare."

After all, the General's Mansion still needs to be cleaned up. We can't let the princess and General Zhang live in the Princess' Mansion on the wedding day!

Wouldn't that make Zhang Gaoyi and the Tiger Army lose face?

So, there are still many things waiting for them to deal with.

The eunuch nodded to show his understanding, and then slowly said, "In fact, this is indeed a little unfair to the princess, but there is nothing we can do about it. This morning, the emperor severely reprimanded the fourth prince, and the fourth prince's mother was demoted from a concubine to a beauty. I thought this matter was over, but unexpectedly, the queen suddenly sent this news. The emperor felt sorry for the princess, so he immediately ordered to start preparing for the wedding. Don't worry, the emperor will definitely compensate the princess well."

Madam Qi quickly responded, "Everyone has seen how much the Emperor loves our princess, and we know that he will not let the princess suffer any grievances. But... I'm afraid the Emperor himself is not feeling well!"

Some grievances only need to be mentioned once. If you say them too many times, others will not think you have been wronged.
