Qin Luan and his brother Qin Ruo came to attend the full moon banquet of the little princess.
The advancement of women's education was not very smooth. At first, the students were all children of nobles and common people. Firstly, they had no money to study, and secondly, their parents were uncivilized. They either kept their daughters at home in exchange for betrothal gifts, or they left their daughters to work at home. , believes that studying is a matter for nobles and has nothing to do with the daughters of ordinary people.
Qin Luan did not hesitate to work hard, running around and implementing policies, so that some people realized that ordinary girls' daughters could shine brightly by studying at home, so they sent their daughters to a girls' school.
In last year's scientific examination, there were more than 20 female students. The results of this year's scientific examination have not been released yet, but conservative estimates suggest that the number will double or triple.
Although this number is small compared to men, it is still a big improvement.
Su Rong rewarded Qin Luan with many good things, and also promoted her to one level. You know, in the officialdom, it takes two or three years to get half a level. Now, she has given birth to one level in one and a half years. It's very good.
She was a little thinner, but her eyes and eyebrows were smiling, and she looked very bright and bright. Many men in the capital invited matchmakers and stepped onto the threshold of the Qin Mansion to propose marriage, but they were all rejected by Qin Luan, and none of them agreed.
Nowadays, Qin Luan is quite old based on the age of a woman getting married, but she still has no plans to get married.
As for Qin Ruo, she had met Su Rong since Mrs. Qin came, and she asked Su Rong to provide her son with a marriage. After Su Rong asked Qin Ruo, Qin Ruo said that the concubine should make the decision, so she took some time off. After careful selection, he was given the title of Chu Guanlan, a lively and clever young county head of a county prince in the clan.
Both Mrs. Qin and Qin Ruo were very satisfied with the marriage, and so were the prince's family and the little county head. Now that we have passed the wedding ceremony, we will get married next year.
Because of this marriage, Ning Ze, Jiang Zhu and others all said why the princess didn't miss them. Su Rong had people draw up a list and was going to select them carefully and grant them marriages one by one. But before she could choose her respective candidates, she got pregnant. Zhou Gu naturally didn't let her worry about it, and just let them take care of it themselves, so as not to burden his daughter-in-law.
In this way, everyone has settled down, but everyone is still a bachelor now.
The clan members entered the palace early today. Chu Guanlan entered the palace early with her parents and had already seen the little princess. Now seeing the Qin family brothers and sisters coming together, she twisted her handkerchief and waited for Qin Ruo to see the little princess. After giving the gift, talk to her.
Sure enough, Qin Ruo completed the process quickly and came over. She instantly smiled and looked at Qin Ruo happily.
Qin Luan naturally did not stay with her brother, so she stayed for a while longer.
Zhou Gu had already stuffed Chu An into Su Rong's arms when the Qin brothers and sisters arrived. Ever since he knew Qin Luan's thoughts, he had not spoken to Qin Luan all year round. Even if they met face to face, it was just Nod and leave directly.
Qin Luan was sensitive, so he naturally felt it, but he didn't show any signs of being unhappy. He focused all his attention on studying for girls. Even Xie Yuan praised her twice for her hard work.
At this time, Qin Luan looked at Chu An in Su Rong's arms, looked at it for a while, and whispered to Su Rong: "My lady, the little princess is so beautiful."
Su Ronxiao, "Then take a closer look."
Qin Luan also smiled.
She and Su Rong both said a few words with smiles on their faces. When they looked up again, Zhou Gu had gone to the other side to find someone else to talk to. I don't know what she said to Ye Guixue, but Ye Guixue laughed, and Zhou Gu was also happy. She glanced at the two of them and looked away.
Su Rong didn't feel tired during the one-day full moon banquet. After all, she didn't hold the baby much. Most of the time it was Zhou Gu who held the baby. The rest of the time, the eldest princess Sheng'an and others took turns to hold the baby, even the old Duke. I looked at Chu An and chatted with him for half an hour.
After the full moon banquet, Su Rong and Zhou Gu spent a night after the ban was lifted.
On a warm spring night, Zhou Gu tirelessly pressed Su Rong on the bed and let him do whatever he wanted to relieve himself of the hard work of the past year.
Su Rong reached out and hit him, panting and laughing, "Are you a hungry wolf?"
It’s not like she didn’t help him with her hands during her pregnancy. Is she so hungry?
Zhou Gu lowered his head and kissed her, "It's just a hungry wolf that will eat you."
Su Rong wanted to say something more, but he swallowed it into his mouth. That night, she was tossed and turned and stayed awake all night.
After Zhou Gu was satisfied, he hugged her, who was so exhausted that she couldn't even lift her fingers, to fall asleep, and enjoyed the early morning after the full moon banquet.
After the full moon banquet, there will be a ceremony for the crown princess to be enthroned, and it will also be a ceremony for the crown prince's husband to be named the king's husband. The Etiquette Department has repeatedly sorted out the process and checked it again and again to ensure that everything goes smoothly.
Half a month later, the King of Southern Chu announced to the world that he would abdicate and his concubine ascended the throne.
On this day, Su Rong was wearing a royal robe, and Zhou Gu was also wearing a royal robe. They joined hands and went up to the Wentian Terrace to worship the heaven and earth and the ancestral temple. The civil and military officials of the dynasty paid homage to the new king and his husband.
The ceremony lasted for a full day and was completed smoothly in a tense and orderly manner. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
When Su Rong returned to the Feng Palace, she was so tired that she felt like she had shed a layer of skin. She lay on the bed and moaned, "Tired. Fortunately, this kind of thing, just like a wedding, only happens once in a lifetime."
Zhou Gu took off his robe, sat on the edge of the bed with a smile, and stretched out his hands to loosen her muscles and bones, "From now on, you can't call her the queen, you should call her the king."
Su Rong hugged him and said, "How does it feel to be promoted to the king's wife?"
Zhou Gu smiled, "It feels pretty good."
He sighed, "I never thought that I would be so capable that I would come to Nanchu to be the king's husband."
Su Rong smiled in his arms, "I didn't expect that I would come to Nanchu to be the king and kidnap you."
The two laughed together.
After a while, Su Rong said: "Father, it is true that Chu An must not be granted the title of concubine. It hurts like eyeballs. She is still young. I don't want her to bear too much, so don't be spoiled." ”
She hummed softly, "When I was a child, Uncle Xie grabbed me to endorse me. How could she be so lucky now?"
Zhou Gu straightened her messy hair and looked at her teasingly, "Are you jealous that your daughter is more blessed than you?"
"Yes."
Zhou Gu whispered: "You are such a big person. It is not easy to clean up a small thing. I will help you. You and I will teach her behind her back. When she can speak, let her choose. She chooses to be the king." , Father can’t stop him even if he wants to.”
Su Rong smiled and punched him, "Is there a father like you? You are plotting against your daughter."
Zhou Gu smiled sullenly, "Who told her that she is the eldest daughter and her surname is Chu? If she doesn't sit in the Chu family's world, who will?"
Anyway, his surname is Zhou, who doesn’t sit down.
Su Rong nodded, "Yes."
People named Su will never sit down again.
The next day, the queen came to court, and the king of Nan Chu completely withdrew from the court to entertain his grandson. The king and his husband sat on the golden palace together and managed the court affairs together, opening a new chapter in the history of Nan Chu. (End of chapter)
