CHAPTER 671: CHAPTER 673, DANYAN’S MARRIAGE MATTER (2 UPDATES)

"The Grandmother is fine, then!" Yun Jinnian breathed a sigh of relief.

Entering the room together with Dai Hanmi, upon seeing Dai Hanbo, Yun Jinnian also hurriedly performed a curtsy and greeted, "I see Third Brother!"

Her voice was clear and faint, devoid of the joy and pleasure evident upon meeting Dai Hanmi.

There was only respect and distance.

Dai Hanbo stood up, smiling as he looked at Yun Jinnian.

She seemed to have been doing well in the past days, having grown taller and fuller in the face.

The coolness in his heart had warmed up again at the sight of her.

It seemed unrelated to romantic affection, but simply because he saw her.

"Sister Jinnian!"

"Third Brother, please sit down!" Yun Jinnian said, pulling Dai Hanmi to the side to sit down, and asked softly, "Has Sister Hanmi been well recently?"

"Yes, I have been eating and sleeping well. What about you? You are now Princess Yijia, do you feel any different?"

"There’s no different feeling, it’s the same as before!" Yun Jinnian replied.

Dai Hanmi laughed, "But why doesn’t your family hold a feast?"

"I will invite you over to play once my Princess Residence is ready!" Yun Jinnian said.

She was indifferent to whether the Yun Family hosted a feast or not.

She also did not care whether they gave rewards to the servants.

They did not treat her as a family member, and although it pained her, she could not ask for it.

When the opportunity arose in the future, she planned to leave the Yun Family.

"Great, that’ll be fun! By then, everyone will belong to you, and nobody will supervise our play. It’ll be more enjoyable," Dai Hanmi said, casting a glance at Dai Hanbo, who quickly stood up.

"I’ll go for a walk outside!"

"Third Brother, you can go back. I’ll stay with Sister Jinnian tonight!"

Yun Jinnian was genuinely welcoming, "Good!"

Dai Hanbo chuckled, "Then I will head back first."

He left Yun Jinnian’s Zen Court, shaking his head with a smile, his heart feeling less gloomy.

He pondered whether he should let go or continue his persistence.

Inside the Zen Room

After watching Dai Hanbo walk away, Dai Hanmi quietly said to Yun Jinnian, "Danyan has her betrothal arranged, did you know?"

"Ah, she hasn’t even had her coming-of-age ceremony..."

"That’s right, I was quite curious too. But you might have heard of the man!"

Yun Jinnian raised her eyebrows slightly, "Who?"

"The Princely Heir of Hong, the only legitimate son of Prince Kang, the nephew of the current Emperor and Prince Rui, Chu Renzhi!"

Yun Jinnian was utterly surprised.

"He..."

She had seen the Princely Heir of the Kang Prince Residence.

A carefree man, known as a libertine.

She just didn’t know whether he, like Chu Yu, was a libertine only in appearance, actually using it as a means to protect himself.

"Sigh, it is said that the Princely Heir took a fancy to Danyan first, sent a matchmaker to formally propose, and the occasion was grand and lively. It seems that the Princely Heir is genuinely fond of Danyan!"

"That so? Then that truly is a cause for congratulations for Sister Chen!" Yun Jinnian congratulated sincerely.

Dai Hanmi also smiled, "So once your Princess Residence is ready, hurry up and set it up, and let’s go there to play. If you’re short of servants for the tidying, just send a message to the Marquis Residence and I’ll send someone to help you!"

"Okay!"

The Emperor was likely to bestow a few palace maids, senior maids, and eunuchs, but Yun Jinnian did not intend to rely on them.

Nevertheless, once she returned, she would need to confer with her wet nurse about going to the slave market to buy some people and have Nanny Rong train them. These people would be the ones she could trust to use in the future.

Dai Hanmi thought back to the conversation between her mother and father the other day and hesitated before saying to Yun Jinnian, "Because you saved Prince Yanjun, I heard that the Grand Commandery Princess has prepared a generous gift for you. Guess what it is?"
