Chapter 334 Marriage
Chapter 334 Marriage
Yanwan glanced at her sideways and shook her head helplessly at Yihuan.
"You're getting married in a few days, so you should prepare for the wedding."
"I have come today for this very purpose. Your Majesty the Emperor and His Majesty the Empress are still in the Old Summer Palace. I am thinking of moving there to spend the winter after my marriage and returning after the autumn hunt next year. I have come to ask Your Majesty the Empress's opinion."
It's said to be a question, but in reality it's just a formality.
After all, the emperor and the empress dowager were both recuperating in the Old Summer Palace. The Qing Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety. They had moved back to Beijing to take care of the matters of enthronement and sacrifice. After getting married, it was natural for them to return to the Old Summer Palace to fulfill their filial duties.
If I don't go back, I'm afraid I'll be criticized by the whole world as unfilial.
"You are the emperor's son, so naturally you should be at his side and show filial piety. In that case, order the preparations to be made early. When the bride enters the house, she must also thank the emperor. I have important matters to discuss with the other ladies. If you have nothing else to do, you can go back and start preparing for the wedding..."
"Yes, I obey your orders."
Only after Yongyan left did Yihuan begin to sigh.
"Yongyan is becoming more and more like a crown prince. He is very serious and not as charming as he was when he was little."
"Children, they always have to grow up..."
As Yanwan was talking, she suddenly saw Ruiji staring at the door in a daze.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you staring at the door?"
After Yan Wan said this, Rui Ji immediately withdrew her gaze and said with a smile: "I am old and I just like to daydream for a while..."
She spoke nonsense, but when she smiled at Yan Wan, there was some deep meaning in her smile.
Following her gaze, Ruiji was staring at Jinzhong's figure at the door.
She was originally wondering where he had gone.
So here it is.
No wonder she easily seized the throne, it turned out there was an insider.
There was a bit more admiration in Ruiji's eyes.
Jinzhong is an old man who has served the emperor for many years, and he can be won over.
It seems that she is quite capable.
......
Within a few days, Yongyan's wedding was held in the Forbidden City.
He was the crown prince and did not have a residence outside the palace. Instead, he lived in Yuqing Palace, so the wedding was held directly in the palace.
Since the battle for the throne among the nine princes, the appointment of a crown prince has become a secret. This is a great event that the Forbidden City has welcomed after several decades.
The pavilions and towers in the palace were all covered with bright red silk, adding a touch of warmth to the originally gloomy Forbidden City.
Three days after the wedding, everyone moved to the Old Summer Palace so that Yongyan could bring his new bride to show his filial piety to the Empress Dowager, the Emperor and the Empress.
When Yongyan met the emperor, he finally understood why everyone was so anxious to appoint him as the crown prince and let him assist in the government.
The emperor was paralyzed in bed at this time. He was very thin, unable to move his body or speak, and was a complete disabled person.
"Your son pays his respects to the Emperor and to Empress Yu."
When the emperor saw Yongyan, he was so excited that he shouted incoherently.
“Uh…ah…”
Seeing him so excited, Yongyan sighed.
Although the Emperor has lost some weight, he is still in good spirits. It seems that Empress Yu is taking good care of him.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will definitely recruit famous doctors to cure your illness. These days, I am grateful to Empress Yu for taking care of you. Your Majesty is so seriously ill, and I am unable to fulfill my filial duties in front of you. I feel guilty..."
Hai Lan was watching from the side, and when she saw the emperor struggling, she immediately gave him a glare.
The emperor was already feeling a little desperate when he heard Yongyan say that. When he noticed Hailan's eyes, he shrank back and avoided her gaze. Then he calmed down and stopped making trouble.
"Yongyan, you don't have to worry too much. The Emperor has always prioritized government affairs. You helped him stabilize the government in the previous dynasty. How could the Emperor blame you? He should be proud of you. If you manage government affairs well, you will be fulfilling your filial duty to the Emperor..."
Hailan said in a soft voice of comfort.
Yongyan was immersed in sorrow and did not notice anything was wrong.
Seeing him like this, the emperor felt disheartened and stared at the ceiling of the tent, breathing heavily.
