Emperor Jianxing also didn't know what the girl from the Wen family looked like.

But the mother of the Wen family girl, Shao, was the most famous beauty in Jiangnan. Although the Duke of Zhenguo was a military general, he was more handsome than the civil officials. He was as beautiful as Pan An and more handsome than Wei Jie. He was the kind of person who made the enemy underestimate him when he went to the battlefield.

The two elder brothers of Miss Wen who died early were even more handsome than the other.

Logically speaking, the girls in this family shouldn't be ugly.

But who can say for sure about having children?

From what Xiao Chengji said, the girl from the Yan family was probably simple, clumsy and bookish.

However, Xiao Chengji is not a man who admires beauty. How many girls have thrown themselves at him over the years, but he has refused to touch any of them?

The emperor felt that it was not important to him whether his wife was beautiful or not. Maybe Xiao Chengji had special tastes and liked ugly ones.

It is better to marry a virtuous woman rather than a beautiful one. Marrying someone like Wei Hao's wife Liu will bring disaster to the whole family.

If Xiao Chengji really wants a beautiful one, it won’t be too late to take a concubine then.

Emperor Jianxing was in a very good mood after this incident.

Seeing the emperor so happy, the chief eunuch Gu Guangliang quickly handed over a sign: "Your Majesty, do you want to summon a concubine to sleep with you?"

Emperor Jianxing smiled and flipped one open at random.

After Yan Yu returned home, he casually put the Qin King's token in a book, took a bath, changed his clothes and went to bed early.

The maids had no intention of going to bed yet and were gathered outside doing needlework.

Rui Dong sighed and said, "Originally, the Fifth Prince was going to marry our girl, but now he has married the Wei family girl. Who knows how happy he is now. It's pitiful for our girl. She came all the way here, only to suffer such an injustice."

Ning Xia shook her head and said, "This is bullying our young lady, she is all alone and helpless, with no one to back her up. If our master and mistress were still alive, he wouldn't dare to do this even if he had a hundred guts."

"Fortunately, our girl is broad-minded and doesn't worry about these things. I don't know what His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin is like. I hope our girl won't be wronged when she marries him..."

"..."

In the fifth prince's house.

Wei Ruxuan was carried into the Fifth Prince's Palace in a sedan chair.

She felt very aggrieved. The wedding was originally planned to be held in a grand sedan chair, but now it was just hastily held.

There wasn't even a red lantern hanging in the Fifth Prince's mansion, and there wasn't a single trace of festivity.

She was carried in through a small door. Since she was not the principal wife, she could not live in the principal wife's courtyard, so she was carried into a remote courtyard.

Wei Ruxuan got off the sedan chair and saw the furnishings in the yard. She was instantly shocked: "What kind of shabby place is this? It's worse than the servants' quarters in my house."

A maid in the Fifth Prince's residence said with a fake smile: "This was arranged by the Empress Dowager. Is the concubine dissatisfied with the Empress Dowager's arrangement?"

When Wei Ruxuan heard that it was arranged by Queen Mother Zheng, she was instantly dumbfounded: "Queen Mother...Queen Mother, how could she...how could she?"

The nanny smiled coldly: "A concubine has lost her innocence before marriage. People who know think that you gave your innocence to our fifth prince, and those who don't think that you have had contact with some other man. The Queen Mother has given you a place to stay, which is already a great honor!"

Wei Ruxuan gnashed her teeth in hatred: "What nonsense are you talking about? Of course I only get along with the Fifth Prince! If you talk nonsense again, I will twist your mouth to pieces! Change a more spacious courtyard for me."

"The concubine lives here," the maid said firmly, "Only the principal concubine can live in the spacious and bright courtyard."

Seeing that this old guy was making things difficult for her in every way, Wei Ruxuan had no choice but to accept it.

Forget it, a good woman won’t suffer a loss in front of her.

Wait until she climbs back to the position of principal wife, and then step by step to the position of queen, and then see how she deals with this old thing!

Wei Ruxuan asked, "Where is the Fifth Prince? I want to see the Fifth Prince."

"His Highness the Fifth Prince has entered the palace and is still in front of the Empress Dowager. Concubine, please go to bed first."

Wei Ruxuan felt so aggrieved after being depressed for the whole day and now she didn't even see the person. She couldn't even describe how aggrieved she was.

She was also thinking about drinking a cup of wedding wine with the Fifth Prince on their wedding night.

The next day, Yan Yu woke up, changed her clothes, and sat by the window to write. She waited until noon, then she lazily rested her chin on her hand and stared at the peach tree outside.

At this time, Jiang came in from outside: "Yan'er, the emperor has adjusted the wedding date."

Yan Yu was stunned for a moment, then turned around slowly: "What?"

"The Emperor is asking the Ministry of Internal Affairs to urgently prepare for the event. He has already chosen an auspicious date and time. You and His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin will be married this month."

Yan Yu frowned slightly: "Didn't we agree to do it in the second half of winter?"

"Who knows? The Wei family caused such an ugly incident. Maybe the emperor is afraid of more trouble."

This time Jiang guessed it right.

Originally, the emperor had scheduled the marriage before the Chinese New Year, but Miss Wei had made a mess of recent events, so he finally promised the marriage to the King of Qin. The emperor was really afraid that things would get more complicated if the Queen Mother Zheng came out to interfere.

At first the emperor was worried that the King of Qin would not agree.

I don’t know whether the King of Qin wanted to piss off Queen Mother Zheng or for some other reason, but he agreed to the marriage yesterday.

The King of Qin has agreed, so why doesn't the Emperor quickly send someone to do it?

Jiang saw that Yan Yu's hair had been messed up when he lifted his chin. She raised her hand to tidy up Yan Yu's hair and said, "The palace sent a lot of things to add to your dowry, but the Prince of Qin's Mansion didn't respond at all. His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin hasn't come to visit yet..."

But it's normal, because the Prince of Qin is the most favorite son of the current emperor.

Jiang was really worried that her daughter would be bullied by the King of Qin.

"Oh, by the way, I have one more thing to tell you." Jiang smiled and said, "Your eldest cousin and third cousin met the emperor today. The emperor talked to them and thought they were good, so he wanted to keep them in the capital."

Yan Yu's eyes lit up instantly: "Really?"

Jiang smiled and nodded: "They are both well-educated, and there is a vacant position in the Hanlin Academy. If they really stay in the capital, your two sisters-in-law will come over one day, and we can take care of them together in the future."

Yan Yu, a girl, stayed in the capital all alone, and she couldn't do it without the support of her family.

Although the Shao family of Anqing Marquis' Mansion cannot be considered Yan Yu's formal family, the people of the Shao family treat Yan Yu as their own daughter. If anything really happens, they will definitely step forward.

In Jiang's eyes, Yan Yu was still a child. The scene when they first met seemed to be right in front of her eyes. In the blink of an eye, the child was about to get married.

The Qin Palace is wealthy and powerful, and the King of Qin is cold and violent. He is afraid that the child will suffer endless hardships if she marries him.

Jiang felt upset, but she managed a smile. She took Yan Yu's hand and said, "Go and have a look. Today the emperor has given you some silk. These fabrics are really good. I'll make you some new clothes someday."
