Then the eunuchs from the imperial kitchen served plates of delicacies, and they were very purposeful. On the side of the princess, they were for health and beauty, while on Zhu Biao's side, they were for strengthening the body and replenishing qi.
Zhu Biao had a headache looking at the soft-shell turtle and ginseng soup in the middle. He was only fifteen years old, how could he have fallen to this level? From this, we could see how anxious Zhu Yuanzhang was to have his grandson.
However, Zhu Biao didn't eat too much. He was still a little young. Although he was mature physically, the young man was wary of sex. His body was not only his own, but also the foundation of the Ming Dynasty.
Tonight, he just wanted to sleep with the princess in his arms and have regular sex. Zhu Biao was not a greedy person. It was very useful to cultivate his character over the years. If he really wanted to, he would have accepted Yun Jin and the others long ago.
After the banquet was cleared, the atmosphere in the room became a little awkward. Although the two of them already had the closest relationship, they didn't know each other too well.
Zhu Biao glanced at her and said, "Let Yun Jin accompany you to your mother's house tomorrow. It's time to meet the concubines and the ladies outside the palace."
This is the beginning of the Crown Princess's diplomacy. The Queen will introduce the Crown Princess to the ladies, and the Crown Princess will be able to take part in some matters in the future.
Chang Luohua nodded and asked, "Is there anything I should pay attention to, my concubine?"
Zhu Biao knew that this was Chang Luohua asking who he should not offend. Those people should try their best to win over them. The harem plus the important ladies in the court can be considered a small court, and the relationships among them are also complicated and tight.
Zhu Biao smiled and said: "You are the Crown Princess. In addition to honoring your mother and queen, you can take care of the rest of the women yourself. There is no need to give anyone face."
A bright smile bloomed on Chang Luohua's face after hearing this. It was difficult to be a royal wife. Her mother had warned her a lot before she came, but now that she heard her husband's words, she was really happy.
No one is willing to compromise, but reality will always make you bow your head. If her husband asks her to do everything, she has no choice but to work hard.
Zhu Biao took a sip of tea. A woman's status depends on her man's status and how favored she is. Chang Luohua is his wife and she has just been married. No one dares to offend her.
The concubines in the harem have lost their temper after being suppressed by Queen Ma for so many years, so they will naturally not make it difficult for her. Chang Luohua doesn't seem to be an idiot, so he doesn't need to worry about such a trivial matter.
Tomorrow I will meet the concubines and my wife, and the day after tomorrow I will pay homage to the ancestral temple. Then it will be time for the Crown Princess to return home. Zhu Biao will also have to go back with her, and then the wedding will be considered a ceremony.
There was nothing going on this afternoon, and Zhu Biao didn't want to waste time here, so he went back to the Wenhua Hall to make plans. Chang Luohua rested for a while and then started walking around the East Palace.
This place will be her home from now on. Sitting in the pavilion, Chang Luohua still feels a little sour in her heart, simply thinking that she is in the small courtyard of Kaiping Prince's Mansion.
Ms. Chen on the side coaxed: "You are the mistress of the East Palace. Why are you still feeling sad when it's too late for everyone here to laugh?"
The four girls on the side also hurriedly comforted her. Chang Luohua slowly recovered from his panic. After thinking about it, he told them: "Go to Yun Jin's place and let her train her for a few days. It's the rules in the palace."
It’s still different from the palace, you are all my personal people, you can’t make any mistakes.”
Mrs. Chen smiled with satisfaction. This was the girl she had given birth to. The Crown Princess had great righteousness. As long as she stood upright, the right to control the East Palace would be hers sooner or later. Rather than seize the power impatiently, it would be better to take it slowly.
Business.
The four little girls were a little dissatisfied. According to their thinking, they were married to the Crown Princess and should be the boss of the ladies in the East Palace. Why should they be disciplined by that Yun Jin?
Before they could complain, they saw the cold gaze of their princess. They were so frightened that they quickly bowed their heads and agreed, then turned around to find Yun Jin.
Mrs. Chen said: "Several little girls are suddenly in heaven. They are a little impetuous. I will teach them a lesson."
Chang Luohua nodded and said: "Yun Jin is not an ordinary person. Both His Highness and the Empress trust her very much. However, she has no conflict with me. Don't be hostile to her."
………………
Zhu Biao was in the Wenhua Hall to make up for the gaps in the relocation matters. In the evening, Liu Jin came over and reported: "Sir, Yan Shenggong came to Beijing. His request to see the Holy Lord was not successful. Now he went to the Song Mansion to meet Song Lian, Qian Tang and others.
"
After Zhu Biao heard this, he thought for a while. The Kong family had lost their trump card and now they really had no choice. Since Zhu Yuanzhang did not see him before being summoned to the capital, he had no choice but to contact those famous Confucian scholars.
Zhu Biao asked casually: "How is it in the palace?"
Liu Jin replied: "The Crown Princess asked all the maids around her to go to Yunjin to learn the rules, and then walked around the East Palace before returning to Chengqian Palace.
Zhu Biao nodded, that's good. I hope Chang Luohua can continue to be so smart. If the Crown Princess does well, Zhu Biao will naturally give her the right to control the East Palace. Yun Jin represents him, not others.
Zhu Biao looked at it for a while, then got up and returned to Chengqian Palace. After Liu Jin sent him into the house, he stopped outside and watched silently.
Walking into the house, Zhu Biao felt a little different. Most of the red decorations had been removed, but it was still different from before. There was nothing special about this place for Zhu Biao originally, but now there was an extra person in it.
It feels amazing,
Zhu Biao watched Chang Luohua come to greet him in regular clothes, standing in front of him and saluting. Zhu Biao stepped forward and took her delicate hand, asked a few words casually, and then walked back to the inner room together.
Zhu Biao stretched out his hands and Chang Luohua helped him take off his clothes. Even if Zhu Biao didn't leave the East Palace, the clothes he wore on weekdays were extremely complicated and complicated. Chang Luohua understood it very slowly, but Zhu Biao didn't care and just watched silently.
Hold her.
She slept peacefully that night. Yun Jin took Chang Luohua to Kunning Palace early the next morning, while Zhu Biao went to see Li Shanchang, and then went to see his father in the afternoon. When they came back, it was already
It's evening.
Chang Luohua said to Zhu Biao: "The concubines in the palace are very kind and have given me many things. The wives outside the palace are even more enthusiastic."
Zhu Biao was not surprised. Needless to say, the people in the palace were either sons or grandsons of the married women outside the palace who wanted to go to Shanxi with Zhu Biao. How could they not be enthusiastic? Zhu Yuanzhang had issued an order a few days ago.
I want to follow the prince out of the capital.
Chang Luohua is also slowly returning to the demeanor and demeanor that Zhu Biao had when he first met her. The young couple had a good time making love tonight.
Early the next morning, Zhu Biao led Chang Luohua out of the East Palace. The two separated first. Zhu Biao went to the morning court, and Chang Luohua went to Kunning Palace. They needed the blessing of the court before they could go to the ancestral temple.
During the ceremony, Chang Luohua's name will also be officially engraved on the Zhu family's ancestral disc, becoming the ancestral wife recognized by the ancestors and the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty.
When Zhu Biao stepped into the Fengtian Hall, he first knelt down to worship his father, and then accepted the congratulations from the courtiers. The Minister of Rites came forward and knelt down and said: "I, Minister of Rites, I sincerely wish that the crown prince's ceremony has been completed, and that it will benefit the Mian clan's prosperity."
, I can’t bear to hear this, so I would like to congratulate you.”
Zhu Yuanzhang once again gave a banquet to the ministers to celebrate the extension of the country. Chang Luohua also followed the same steps. Finally, Queen Ma announced: "The crown prince's betrothal gift is successful, which will benefit the country and the prosperity of the country."
