Traveling through ancient times: living a different life

Time passed quickly and it was the end of the month. The auction house had been renovated and decorated. Bi Yue was very satisfied after inspection. She paid the workers and asked three masters to lead the construction team to the suburbs of Beijing to build a winery for her second uncle.

The reclaimed store has been renovated and will open in a few days.

Originally, Bi Yue wanted to wait until the weather was cooler before getting engaged. After all, she was only 14 years old. Even if she got engaged, she would have to wait until she was 18 to get married. But Luo Chen always felt insecure until she was engaged.

So the two of them discussed and decided to let him invite a matchmaker to come to their house to propose marriage on August 8st.

Two days ago, Luo Chen took his brother to the mountains near the capital to hunt two wild geese. Bi Yue told him that if he couldn't guess the answer, he could just go to the market and buy two geese instead. Fortunately, he was lucky and actually caught two.

Luo Chen happily went home and told his parents and grandparents. The whole family prepared gifts for the proposal, including gold, silver, jade, and fine cloth. They invited a famous official matchmaker in the capital, and the couple, together with the matchmaker, went to the man's house to propose marriage in person. This showed that the man's parents valued this daughter-in-law, so they sent two hundred people to carry the proposal, a total of one hundred carriages.

On the morning of the 1st, the Han family arrived at the princess's mansion. Chen Qingyun brought the entire family, young and old, to personally greet them at the gate and welcomed them into the mansion.

Someone outside the door announced that the eldest princess and her husband had come to congratulate them.

A beautiful woman in gorgeous clothes walked in from outside, followed by her handsome prince consort.

She greeted Chen Qingyun and his wife, and held Biyue's hand and was very affectionate.

At this time, a eunuch read out loudly, "The Emperor, the Empress, the Crown Prince, the Crown Princess, the Fourth Prince and the Fourth Prince's Consort, and the Fifth Princess, have arrived."

After hearing the eunuch's loud announcement, Han Shaoqing and his wife, Chen Qingyun and his wife, and their entire family rushed to the gate from behind.

After welcoming the Emperor and Empress, the Crown Prince and Crown Princess, the Fourth Prince and his Princess, and the Fifth Princess, they entered the Princess's Mansion and arranged them in the hall, which was filled with several ice basins, four fans, cold drinks, ice bean paste, ice watermelon, and popsicles (with more than a dozen flavors). There was a refrigerator next to the living room, just like the freezer in the previous life.

After the Chen family and the Han family came in, they knelt on the ground according to their rank. Han Shaoqing and Jiang Zhenzhu kowtowed to the emperor and the empress first, "Your humble servants pay their respects to the emperor and the empress. Long live the emperor, a thousand years to the empress, and may you live in peace and happiness!"

Chen Qingyun and Wang Taozhi, the couple, knelt in the front, with Biyue, second uncle, second aunt, all the Chen family, and grandma and grandpa's family all kneeling on the ground behind them. He said loudly, "I, your humble servant and my whole family, pay homage to the Emperor and Empress. I wish the Emperor long live long! The Empress a thousand years and a thousand years!"

"Lord Han and cousin, please stand up. Lord Chen and his wife, and everyone in the Chen family, please stand up. The Queen and I are here today to attend Rong An's engagement party. As her adoptive father and adoptive mother, I came here suddenly today, which may seem a bit abrupt to everyone.

In the past few days, I have received the battle report from Zhu Jingtang's front. The situation is not very good. I am a little worried about this matter, so I forgot to send someone to inform you. "

This morning, the Queen Mother heard the Crown Princess come to tell her that her parents had asked the official matchmaker to go to Rong An's house to propose marriage, so they sent the personal eunuch to the palace to inform Jiang Yuchuan.

When the Emperor heard the news, he quickly dismissed the morning court and rushed over with the Empress, the Crown Prince and his Consort, the Fourth Prince and his Consort, and the Fifth Princess.

The Fifth Prince is busy with the affairs of four factories and has no time at all. Moreover, his father and mother know about Bi Yue's feelings for her, so it would be better for him not to go to avoid embarrassment and discomfort.

Everyone stood up, and the emperor asked them to sit aside. Wang and the second aunt asked the maid to serve the best tea to the emperor, empress, prince, princess, and princes and princesses.

The Queen asked the accompanying eunuchs and palace maids to rest for a while on the chairs beside them. The weather was hot and they could feel the heat coming off their bodies just by standing next to her. So the maids and servants in the mansion brought them ice bean paste. The eunuchs and palace maids felt particularly warm in their hearts and admired Princess Rong'an even more.

The other relatives in the family all quietly withdrew to prepare for the lunch banquet. Originally, they wanted to set up a few small tables and have the two families have a meal together. Now that the emperor, empress, prince, princess, and princes and princesses are all here, they must set up a few tables for the banquet.

Bi Yue saw a bit of worry on the emperor's face, and knew that the battle report from the front must not be going well, so she stepped forward, bowed to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, what's the situation with General Zhu? Can you tell me about it?"

"The soldiers in the front are anxious, and we have also suffered many casualties. Wulan Kingdom has vowed to never surrender and is stubborn to the end. There are still five cities that have not been conquered. They wrote to ask me to send them a general of rank five or above. I also have selfish motives for coming here today. First, I want to congratulate you on your engagement, and second, I want to discuss with you how many generals you want to send to support Zhu Jingtang so that we can take down Wulan Kingdom as soon as possible. So I came to ask your opinion."

Jiang Yuchuan of Biyuejue, as the king of a country, came to ask her opinion in person. He must have something to ask for, which is why he is so courteous. If he wants someone above the fifth rank to go, Chen Chen will definitely go. We have to ask the person involved.

Bi Yue said to the servant next to her, "Go and call General Chen Chen and tell him that His Majesty wants to see him."

When the servant heard the princess' order, he quickly responded, "Okay, Princess, I'll go get General Chen right away."

After saying that, he ran out in a flash. Not long after, Chen Chen came over, walked in, and kowtowed to the emperor and the queen, saying, "Your humble servant greets the emperor and the queen."

The emperor saw the tall and mighty Chen Chen and said to him with a smile, "My dear minister, please stand up."

When Chen Chen stood up, the emperor said to him, "Zhu Jingtang has been unable to conquer Wulan for a long time, and has lost several generals. I would like to send a general of the fifth rank or above. Are you willing to go?"

"Your Majesty, I am willing to obey your orders. I would like to take Dongnanxibei, Hua Qiuyue, and several brothers from Wuming Island with me."

"Okay, I'm sure."

After a while, the housekeeper came over and quietly reported that lunch was ready and everyone was invited to eat.

Bi Yue said respectfully to the Emperor and the Empress, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, lunch is ready. Let's eat first. I will personally escort them to the border tomorrow."

When Jiang Yuchuan heard that Bi Yue was personally sending the generals to the border, he was very grateful. He knew that she had a flying magic weapon and would arrive in a few days, so he sent more generals over to take over the Ulan Kingdom as soon as possible.

These generals arrived at the front earlier and could solve many problems. They were very happy and praised, "My Rong'an is so considerate. I feel much more at ease with you."

Wang ordered her servants to arrange a luxurious house for the emperor, empress, crown prince and crown princess, the fourth prince and his princess, the eldest princess and his husband, the fifth princess and others to have dinner. The room was not only equipped with an ice basin, but also an electric fan. When they walked in, the room was very cool. After everyone sat down, they saw that the dishes on the table were very rich.

Biyue and Luocheng accompanied the elders in the family to another room with an ice basin to eat.
