Chapter 199: Princess Yan Danxue of Changning (1)
Yan Jingshen’s trip was for Princess Changning.
But he also knew that nothing could be accomplished overnight. As long as the empress dowager's path was able to be thorough, he could basically achieve his goal.
What he did not expect was that the Empress Dowager actually took the initiative to mention Princess Changning and gave him a great opportunity.
"The great-grandmother of the emperor, the grandmother of Changning now..." he asked tentatively.
The Empress Dowager smiled bitterly and said, "She lives in Luoyun Palace not far from De'an Palace. The person in her thirties is still alone, and no matter who persuades him, it will be useless."
"how so?"
"These things are long, and your child's family may not understand them.
You just need to remember that you must follow Mr. Xia in the future and that Changning will find out as a comfort.”
Yan Jingshen whispered: "The emperor's great-grandmother said just now that my mother's relationship with Changning's aunt was very good.
Although she has not mentioned it deliberately over the years, she must be very concerned about her grandmother.
If the emperor's great-grandmother could trust her grandson, it would be better to ask me to ask my aunt for her, which would also help her mother reduce some of her worries."
"This..." The Queen Mother hesitated a little.
Changning has locked herself in Luoyun Palace over the years. Except for her mother, she is rarely seen even by the emperor and the queen.
After all, Brother Shen is a stranger. If he goes so rashly, he will most likely be turned away.
It’s really a pity that the child has good intentions and suffers such grievances.
The old maid next to him said, "Empress Dowager, I think I can let the second young master give it a try.
After all, he is the son of Princess Ming, and now he is a student of Mr. Xia. In addition, his personality is very likable, maybe His Royal Highness is willing to meet him?"
Yan Jingshen also said: "My grandson knows what you are worried about, but I have been a tough person since I was a child. Even if I am beaten by my grandmother a few times, it doesn't matter."
After another ideological struggle, the Empress Dowager finally spoke: "Okay, the Ai family let Ade lead you to Luoyun Palace."
Ade led Yan Jingshen and left De'an Palace after the ceremony.
Although she had only seen Yan Jingshen once or twice, she had a good impression of him.
Walking on the corridor leading to Luoyun Palace, she whispered: "If the princess is willing to see the prince later, there are a few things you must pay attention to."
Yan Jingshen said: "Thank you sister."
Ade has long passed the age of spring, and the sound of "sister" sounds like no other title to her.
"First, Your Highness likes tranquility. Don't make loud noises after you go in.
Second, Your Highness loves flowers and plants. You must be careful after entering and don’t encounter them.
Third, uh…
I couldn't think of it for a while, in short, you must not be careless, let alone show off.
Your Highness asks you whatever you ask, don't go too far.
Yan Jingshen expressed his gratitude again.
Ade stopped talking and added some force to his feet.
Soon, the two arrived at Luoyun Palace.
Ade knocked on the palace door, and soon a palace maid of seventeen or eighteen years old came to open the door.
"Sister Ade, is there anything to be told to the Queen Mother?"
Ade turned his body sideways, revealing Yan Jingshen who was following behind.
"This is the second son of Prince Bosi's Mansion. I want to come and invite His Highness to the peace."
The palace maid was a little hesitant.
Your Highness has always been rare, let alone a man.
This second young master is not a child of a few years. He looks similar to his age. Does Your Highness really want to see him?
"Please wait for the second son. I will report to His Highness the Princess first."
Yan Jingshen nodded in agreement.
The palace maid hurried into the depths of the garden and saw a slender woman watering a bush of flowers.
"Your Highness." She walked to Yan Danxue faster.
Gu Jian
"Why are you so panicked?" Yan Danxue said lightly.
"The second son of Prince Bosi's Mansion asks to see His Highness."
"Go and tell him, I'm not available." Yan Danxue's voice was still warm.
"Your Highness, Ade, who is beside the Queen Mother, comes with the second son.
In the opinion of my servant, you might as well meet him, otherwise the Empress Dowager will definitely be worried again."
In Yan Danxue's mind, her mother is her only relative.
When Xia Huaijin had an accident more than ten years ago, if she had not tried her best to stop her, she would not have lived to this day.
Moreover, my mother is already in her seventies and is not in good health, so she can no longer be stimulated.
"Okay, go and take him to the study and wait, I'll come over soon."
"Yes." The palace maid hurriedly turned back.
Yan Danxue continued to water the flowers, but her movements were still slow.
About two quarters of an hour later, she washed her hands, didn't change her dress, and didn't tidy up her hair, so she went straight to the study.
Yan Jingshen was anxious when he heard that she was coming. He quickly stood up.
"Yan Jingshen has met his grandmother."
Yan Danxue did not make any statement and walked directly to the desk and sat down.
"Are you Cheng Yu's second son?"
“That’s right.”
"Although Cheng Yu is my nephew, we have been out of contact for more than ten years. I wonder what you are doing today?"
Yan Jingshen hurriedly said: "Besides being the second son of King Bosi, I am also the son of Princess Ming."
Yan Danxue's expression was still calm: "So what?"
"After my mother returned to Beijing, she has always been very concerned about you, so today I took advantage of the time when I went to the palace to greet the emperor's great-grandmother, and asked me to visit you."
Yan Danxue said: "You have seen my situation, so you can go back and report to your mother."
Yan Jingshen grinned secretly.
Yan Danxue looked so young, which was completely beyond his expectations.
Of course, this kind of youth does not only refer to the face, but also to the state.
In this era, ladies in their thirties were well maintained, but most of them had given birth to more than one child, and some had even become grandmothers.
In this case, no matter how well a face is maintained, its temperament is completely opposite to when he was young.
The same is true for the figure. Even if you are thinner, you are no longer as slender as you were in your teenage years.
It is not the case with Yan Danxue.
Perhaps she has never been married, and her temperament and figure are not much different from those when she was in her teens.
Only a pair of eyes is no longer as pure as Girls' Generation, but is as unchanging as a pool of stagnant water.
"Grandma, please listen to me." Yan Jingshen said with a strong face.
"What else do you want to say?"
"Now I have become his student under Mr. Xia."
"What does this have to do with me?"
Yan Jingshen choked.
This was the first time he was turned away in two lives.
This kind of woman who is incompetent, even with her social skills, is helpless.
"Grandma, are you really not interested in anything?"
Yan Danxue said coldly: "I checked out other people's privacy when I first met. That's how your father taught you?"
Yan Jingshen finally found the opportunity to stay.
