The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Chapter 815: Ji Chen Grants Marriage to Jiang Ziyi and Jiang Weiyan

Ji Chenyu thought of the handsome young man and felt that he would be a good match for Jiang Ziyi.

"I still need to ask the Queen and Princess Heshun about this matter, and I will give you a reply tomorrow."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Ji Chenyu looked at Luo Cheng and ordered: "Send someone to ask Princess Heshun to go to the Queen."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After leaving court, Ji Chenyu immediately came to Fengyi Palace, where he met the leisurely and elegant Shen Jiarou playing the piano.

Seeing her, Shen Jiarou stopped playing the piano, and Ji Chenyu felt a little sorry.

"Brother, why are you here at this hour?"

"Empress, today, Lord Jiang asked for Princess Heshun on behalf of his eldest son in the court, hoping that I would grant the marriage. I need to ask you and Ziyi what you think about this matter. What do you think?"

Shen Jiarou thought about the two of them who had grown up together and could be considered childhood sweethearts. However, although she was satisfied with Jiang Weiyan, she still valued her daughter's opinion more. After all, she didn't need to look at anyone's face now. If her daughter didn't like him, it would be useless no matter how outstanding the person was.

"Is your royal brother Ziyi?"

"I guess he's on his way."

As soon as Shen Jiarou nodded, the announcement started outside.

"Princess Heshun has arrived!"

"Rou'er, look, he's here."

Jiang Ziyi didn't know why her uncle the emperor suddenly asked her to come to her mother's palace. She walked into the main hall gracefully and dignifiedly, and saluted to the two people sitting in the main seats.

"Ziyi has met Uncle Emperor and Mother Empress."

Ji Chenyu raised his hand: "No need to be polite, please sit down."

"Thank you, Uncle Emperor." After she sat down, Ji Chenyu glanced at Shen Jiarou, and when he saw her nod, he spoke to Jiang Ziyi.

"Ziyi, Lord Jiang, today your second cousin asked me to marry you on behalf of his eldest son Jiang Weiyan, and asked me to issue an edict to grant the marriage. What do you think about this?"

Jiang Ziyi was shocked when she heard this: he finally took action.

She looked up at Shen Jiarou, wanting to hear her mother's opinion.

"Ziyi, your mother has watched you grow up since you were young. Although she is very satisfied with Wei Yan in every aspect, it is you who has to live your life. Your mother and your uncle the emperor still want to hear your thoughts."

Jiang Ziyi was still very moved when she heard this. The marriages of the royal family and the children of the aristocratic families were not decided by themselves, but her mother had to listen to her and give her enough dignity and respect.

Lin Shuhua watched his master stirring his handkerchief nervously and felt a little anxious for him.

It is not easy to meet someone who shares the same thoughts with you in this vast sea of ​​people, not to mention that there are very few people whose family backgrounds match and whose parents do not object. Her princess should not be foolish enough to refuse.

"My son..."

"It's okay, everything is up to you. Mother wants you to be happy." Although she has been through two marriages, she was actually very happy in both.

Seeing that her mother cared so much about her, Jiang Ziyi thought of Jiang Weiyan who had taken good care of her since she was a child, and decided to fight for her own happiness.

"Your son is willing." After saying this, she felt a lot more relaxed.

The emperor and empress looked at each other and smiled when they heard this.

When the eldest princess learned that the second son had proposed to the emperor to Princess Heshun on behalf of her eldest son, she felt a little worried for him.

"If I had known this, I should not have troubled the Queen, who is still Princess Yongkang, for no reason." Her grandson's happiness must not be ruined by her unreliable grandmother.

At the morning court again, Jiang Shijie looked at Ji Chenyu expectantly, only to see Ji Chenyu give Luo Cheng a look, and he walked to the front of the stage with the imperial edict.

"Lord Jiang Shijie, the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, has received the order."

Jiang Shijie knelt down quickly, and everyone followed suit.

"The Emperor, by the Mandate of Heaven, proclaims: The Empress's eldest daughter, Jiang Ziyi, is gentle and dignified, well-educated, considerate, and talented; Jiang Shijie's eldest son, Jiang Weiyan, is gentle as jade, restrained and polite, and is both civil and military, with a mild character; the two of them are a perfect match, and with the approval of both their parents, I hereby grant them marriage, a good match, and choose an auspicious day for the wedding. I decree this!"

When Jiang Shijie heard the imperial decree granting the marriage, he felt relieved. The long-cherished wish of his eldest son had come true, and as a father, he was finally relieved about his marriage.

"Accept my order, Lord Jiang."

"I accept your order and thank you for your grace."

On this day, Jiang Shengping and Old Madam Jiang were summoned to the imperial study at the same time. Ji Chenyu went straight back to the imperial study after court, and Shen Jiarou and Jiang Ziyi were waiting together.

"Queen, you are here."

"Meet Uncle Emperor."

"Ziyi, please don't be polite. Where are Mr. Jiang and the others?"

Ruan Qingling said, "Your Majesty, the secret guards said they have arrived at the palace gate, so they must be almost there by now."

Jiang Shengping and Old Madam Jiang, the biological grandparents, came to the imperial study under the guidance of Nami.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, and Your Highness Princess Heshun."

Ji Chenyu raised his hand: "No need to be polite, please take a seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the seat."

With Shen Jiarou's agreement, Jiang Ziyi stepped forward and helped Jiang Shengping and Old Madam Jiang up.

"Grandpa and grandma, be careful."

"Thank you, Princess Heshun." Their granddaughter has grown up and knows how to feel sorry for them.

Jiang Ziyi helped Madam Jiang sit down at the bottom, then looked at the emperor and empress sitting in the main seat with a respectful look.

"You two are Ziyi's grandparents. Ziyi's father is no longer around, and her mother is now remarrying a royal family member. As for the betrothal gift, I, as the emperor's uncle, would like to ask whether it should be given to Princess Heshun's mansion or the Jiang's mansion."

Jiang Shengping said, "Your Majesty, let's go to Princess Heshun's mansion and let the princess keep it. Originally, the betrothal gift should be given to her parents, but the princess's biological father is no longer alive, and the Queen is now marrying into the royal family. As her grandparents, it is not appropriate for us to accept it. After all, Princess Heshun has always been taken care of by the Queen. I just don't know if the Queen thinks this is appropriate."

Madam Jiang also immediately expressed her opinion: "Your Majesty, I also think that we should go directly to Princess Heshun's mansion and let the princess take care of it herself. We two old people will go and help look after it when the time comes."

Ji Chenyu looked at Shen Jiarou: "What does the Queen think?"

"Okay, mother, please come with me and Princess Heshun to Fengyi Palace to have a private talk." From the beginning, the royal brother asked her to always address her as Old Madam Jiang. After all, she was a widower who remarried, and Old Madam Jiang was still her mother-in-law. However, due to the difference in their identities, they had to treat each other with courtesy.

Madam Jiang was delighted when she heard this: "Yes."

Fengyi Palace

Old Madam Jiang looked at her granddaughter who had grown into a graceful young lady, feeling both gratified and reluctant to let her go.

"That's great. Our Ziyi is also old enough to get married. We have watched Wei Yan grow up. Grandmother is also very satisfied that you have a good husband who truly loves you. You must be happy in the future, just like your mother." Their Jiang family felt sorry for the eldest daughter-in-law, but fortunately, she was doted on by the emperor after remarrying, so it was a good match, and they could give an explanation to their son in heaven.

"Grandma, why are you being so sentimental? It's not like Ziyi is marrying someone else."

After her reminder, Old Madam Jiang couldn't help but smile.

"That's right, look at Grandma's brain."
