Chapter 957: In the Harem
After the wedding, Lu Cheng began to command the armies to march north, capturing cities and territories along the way with unstoppable force, and quickly occupied the provinces and prefectures in northern Jiangbei.
For a time, various armies started competing with each other, good news came frequently from the front lines, and various state governments followed suit, showing a trend of sweeping the country.
The Third Prince, who had just sat on the throne, had not had time to be happy for a few days before he felt that the throne under his butt was becoming increasingly unstable and his good days were about to end.
In Fengtian Hall, Lu Cheng had just finished his work when he saw Daiyu, Zijuan and Xueyan walking in with a food box in hand: "Husband, have you finished your work? I cooked you Babaoshan soup and some snacks. Do you want to eat some first?"
"My wife is really considerate. We have finished our work now, so let's eat together and then go for a walk in the garden."
Zijuan and Xueyan immediately began to prepare snacks and soup and served on the side.
"Well, not bad, not bad. Madam's cooking skills have improved a lot. You deserve praise."
"It's all thanks to you, my husband, who always made delicious food for me. I can't get used to eating food made by others anymore, so I can only study hard on my own."
"Are you used to living in the palace?"
"It's fine, but I've been too quiet lately and want to go out for a walk."
"That's easy. Let's go out for a walk tomorrow after I finish my official duties. By the way, you have been training Yingchun and Xichun in martial arts recently. How are they doing?"
"Sisters Yingchun and Xichun got started the fastest and were more diligent. The next ones were Xing Xiuyan and Miaoyu. Sister Feng was a little older and learned slowly, but she finally got started and it was enough to strengthen her body..."
"Didn't you like to hold poetry gatherings in the past? If you have nothing to do, you can also do it. You can get together every day to talk about poetry and songs, exercise your body, or plant flowers and grass, knit or do something else. It's all up to you."
"Yes, that's what I thought. Actually, I'm not good at managing these things, and I'm grateful for the help of Yuanyang, Fengjie, and Ping'er. When will my husband take Baojie and Tanchun over? Then I can have an easier time."
"Just arrange these for you and set a date."
"How about we go to the Jia Mansion tomorrow?"
"Alright, let's go see my father-in-law by the way."
After they had eaten, they walked around in the back garden and talked for a while. Daiyu stood up and said, "My husband, you have been with me these days. It's time to go see Sister Feng and Ping'er. Let's go to their place tonight. Also... let me rest for a while and have a good sleep..."
After saying that, Daiyu took Zijuan and Xueyan directly back to Kunning Palace.
Lu Cheng was not surprised by this. Since his marriage to Daiyu, he had been spending more time in Kunning Palace.
After all, Daiyu had learned martial arts and had already entered the stage of Huajin. Her physique was much stronger than that of other girls, even Qingwen and Xiangling combined. But even so, Daiyu still felt a little overwhelmed, so it was normal for her to take the initiative to speak.
At night, in Wang Xifeng's room.
"Feng'er, do you want to visit the Jia Mansion in Jinling?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Xifeng's first reaction was to refuse. After all, she was originally the daughter-in-law of the Jia family. Now that she was in this situation, it would be somewhat embarrassing to return to the Jia family.
But when she thought about the current situation, Wang Xifeng had another idea in her mind: "Master, if I return to the Jia Mansion and see the old... it will not be good after all. However, I have the closest relationship with Qin Keqing, and I haven't seen her for a long time. I would like to see her. If you allow me, I want someone to bring her over and have her talk with me..."
"Of course, it's not a big deal. I'll arrange a team of female guards for you later, and you just need to have someone pick her up."
"Sir, I heard that the northerners have already reached Nanyang Prefecture. Will they soon reach Shuntian Prefecture? When will you become the emperor?"
"Why? Are you so anxious to become a concubine?"
"No, I just... I just want to go back to Shuntian Prefecture to take a look."
"Don't worry, it won't be long. You don't have to worry too much about the outside world. In the future, you have to help Daiyu with the affairs of the palace. In addition, you have to be more restrained and not be too harsh on the people in the palace. If there is anything, listen to Ping'er's opinions."
"I'll listen to you. Master, when will Sister Lin get pregnant? When Sister Lin gets pregnant with your... can you let me get pregnant as soon as possible? I'm afraid it won't be good when I'm older..."
"If you practice standing meditation well and strengthen your body bones, it will also help with fertility. Don't worry about age or anything like that."
Since arriving at the Jinling Palace, Wang Xifeng has become much more docile. She gets along well with the other women and has won their favor.
However, among the women in Lu Cheng's harem, Daiyu, although she has the highest status and is smart enough, does not like to play tricks. Xiangling is simple-minded, and Qingwen is straightforward.
Yingchun is not interested in worldly affairs, Xichun is self-admiring, Xing Xiuyun is like a free and easy person, Miaoyu is aloof and proud, and Zhou Wan'er is gentle and virtuous.
Apart from Tanchun, Baochai and others who have not yet entered the palace, the most scheming one is Wang Xifeng.
Moreover, ever since she heard Lu Cheng occasionally say "A person well-read will naturally be elegant, and time will never defeat beauty", Wang Xifeng often asked Daiyu to teach her to read, and began to learn poetry, books and etiquette seriously.
The next morning, after finishing his official business, Lu Cheng took Daiyu to visit Lin Ruhai first, and then went to the Jia Mansion in Jinling.
When the Jia family learned that Lu Cheng was coming, they immediately gave him a grand welcome.
At this time, Tanchun was the head of the Jia family, and Yuanchun assisted her. Although they were women, they had the help of Lu Cheng, and no one dared to look down on them.
Moreover, although Tanchun was a woman, her management ability was not inferior to that of men. In just a few months, she had completely controlled the entire Jinling Jia Mansion.
This time, not only Daiyu but also sisters Yingchun and Xichun came to the Jia Mansion with Lu Cheng. When the three girls met Yuanchun and Tanchun, it was natural that there was a deep sisterly affection.
At this time, there were only a few direct descendants left in the Rong and Ning mansions, but the side branches that originally stayed in the Jinling mansion were still intact.
Strong branches and weak trunks are not a good thing. But who can blame Tanchun for having the most powerful backer behind her?
After the sisters talked for a while, Daiyu looked at her eldest cousin Yuanchun and said, "Big sister, you have been a female historian in the palace for many years, and you know the rules and etiquette of this palace very well. I wonder if you are willing to come to the palace and help me?"
Yuanchun was also stunned when she heard this, and then looked at Lu Cheng who was sitting next to her. Thinking that Lu Cheng was secretly instructing her, she couldn't help but feel a little shy and happy: "Since my cousin needs it, I... I am willing to do it."
Lu Cheng was also a little surprised. Although he had a good impression of Yuanchun, who was graceful, elegant, and dignified, he had never mentioned it to Daiyu.
In fact, Yuanchun entered the palace when she was young, so she was already quite old at this time, not much different from Wang Xifeng. In this era, she was definitely an old maid.
Moreover, given the relationship between Jia Yingchun, Tanchun, Xichun and Lu Cheng, it would be difficult for Yuanchun to find a suitable partner if she really wanted to get married. How many people could be brothers-in-law to the future emperor? Moreover, Yuanchun's age did not allow her to wait any longer.
Yuanchun was already grateful to Lu Cheng for helping her family escape from suffering. In addition, given Lu Cheng's appearance, temperament, and status, she was naturally willing to enter the palace.
Nowadays, not many people fall in love before getting married. Most of the time, the marriage is blind and the wife only knows what her husband looks like after entering the bridal chamber.
It’s great to have the opportunity to see each other’s eyes.
