"Poor Ninth Sister, get well quickly, we are almost worried about you." Yan Yan is a temperamental person, with all her worries written on her face.
"Jiu Mei, how are you feeling now? Do you want to eat mung bean cake? I tasted it at the banquet the night before yesterday and it felt good, so I ordered someone to make a few new ones for our sisters. It was originally prepared to be delivered yesterday, but I heard that You're not feeling well yet, so we didn't come." Yan Yu said with concern.
"Thank you, Fifth Sister and Sixth Sister. By the way, what kind of banquet are you talking about?" Yan Shu's focus this time was not on food.
"It's an envoy from the Yi Kingdom who is visiting, and he is accompanied by the eighth prince of the Yi Kingdom. It seems that he wants to marry our princess of the Yan Kingdom. You, you were ill, but you escaped. The two of us. I don’t know how my father would choose." Yan Yu said slowly, with a hint of sadness in her eyebrows.
"What's wrong, fifth sister, don't you like this eighth prince? Also, why do you think my father will agree to the marriage?" Yan Shu really didn't know much about Yi Kingdom.
"It's not that Sixth Sister doesn't like it, but the Yi Kingdom has become stronger in recent years, and the reason for marrying our Yan Kingdom is to get the support of the Yan Kingdom. The eighth prince is a talented man, with both civil and military skills. The Emperor of Yi Kingdom has already promised that he will be crowned prince on the day of his wedding. It is very likely that she will inherit the throne in the future. In terms of status, she can barely match the fifth sister. However, Yi Country is too far away. If you really marry there, you will probably never come back in this life." Yan Yao said. He also became sad as he spoke.
Yan Yan understood what Yan Yu and Yan Yan were thinking. As a legitimate princess, Yan Yu had been following the queen since she was a child, so she would naturally become the queen in the future. Yan Yu is now 18 years old and has reached the marriageable age. Looking at the world, the eighth prince of Yi Kingdom is naturally the most suitable choice in terms of status.
To be honest, Yan Yan didn't want to marry so far away. Even if she became the mother of a country, she would only be able to do it alone unless the eighth prince was devoted to her. But since ancient times, kings have been ruthless, and a harem of three thousand is the standard. If there is another intrigue, then Gong Dou will fight you to the death. There is a long road ahead, and you can only rely on yourself.
The three of them all felt lost instantly. As they grew older, the days they could spend together became fewer and fewer.
At this moment, Chunxi, the maid next to Yan Yao, came over, bowed to the princesses, and then whispered to Yan Yao. After hearing this, Yan Yan couldn't help but frowned and whispered: "Is this what the mother concubine actually thinks?"
"What's wrong?" Yan Yu asked.
"Concubine, she..." Yan Jian hesitated before speaking.
"What's wrong with Concubine De?" Yan Shu also asked curiously.
"Oh, my concubine..." Yan Yao was very entangled, but she didn't want to hide it from her sisters, so she simply told the truth: "My concubine asked me if I like the eighth prince of the Yi Kingdom. If she likes it, she will help me. Go and fight for it, and your father will stay at Dehua Palace for dinner tonight." Yan Jian paused and said, "But the eighth prince of Yi Kingdom is clearly here for the fifth sister, and the mother-in-law said so, how could he be willing to give in? Am I going to marry far away alone?" Yan Yan became more and more uncomfortable as she spoke.
"Sixth sister, do you like the eighth prince?" Yan Yu asked.
"Fifth sister, I don't know either. I only met him once at a banquet, so I don't know if I like him or not." Yan Yao added, "What about you, fifth sister? Do you like the eighth prince?"
"I don't know either, but it doesn't matter whether I like it or not. My marriage is definitely not up to me. It's just a matter of distance." Yan Yu said lightly.
Yan Shu was not at the banquet at the time, so she didn't know what kind of person the eighth prince of Yi Kingdom was, so it was difficult to comment.
