Because of her status and the rules in the palace, Princess Wannian rarely comes into contact with outstanding talents of her generation.
In the past few months, Yan Xing, as one of the main generals guarding the palace, has often been able to see Princess Wannian.
Yes, we met more times and spent more time together, In addition, Yan Xing himself is a very heroic young man, so it is normal for Princess Wannian to fall in love with him.
As for family differences, Liu Cheng does not care about family differences, nor does he think Yan Xing is not worthy of Princess Wannian.
The key is the rest of the royal family.
People's opinions and whether Yan Xing also likes Princess Wannian?
"Why, I like Yan Xing, can't I?"
Princess Wannian's question awakened Liu Bian and Liu Cheng.
Liu Bian said: "Sister Huang, you can like anyone, you can marry anyone you want, I agree, it's just what the Emperor uncle thinks."
Liu Cheng thought for a while and asked Princess Wannian: "The princess likes Yan Xing.
We already know this.
We don't know if Yan Xing likes the princess."
Princess Wannian lowered her head and twisted her body and whispered: "He must also like me, we have expressed our feelings to each other."
"You are not ashamed at all."
Liu Cheng muttered in his heart and said to Liu Bian: "Your Majesty, if you must follow the rules of a well-matched husband for a woman, I'm afraid no one in our Han Dynasty can be worthy of her.
Princess, no matter how prominent the family is, it is just an aristocratic family.
It is still one level below the royal family.
If you want to find a suitable match for the princess, you can only find the princess.
The Lord is marrying in another country.
This is probably not realistic.
Since ancient times, princesses have always married down.
In other words, finding a husband for the princess does not follow the rules of being well-matched.
Yan Xing's family background is not considered good and he is not a noble family. , There is nothing wrong with his character.
He is a military commander, so it is useless to ask for talent.
If there is no problem with Yan Xing, I will not object to it."
When Princess Wannian heard this, she immediately felt happy.
In fact, what she was most afraid of was that Liu Cheng objected to her marrying Yan Xing.
Liu Bian himself was not a rigid and pedantic person.
On the contrary, he hated and ignored many rules.
This is why Emperor Ling said that Liu Bian was frivolous in his words and deeds during his lifetime.
Liu Bian also thought it was troublesome.
After hearing that Liu Cheng had no objection, he immediately said: "Then call Yan Sima and ask him to see what he thinks.
If he is willing, that's fine.
I will issue an edict to marry him immediately."
A eunuch went to call for help.
Liu Cheng observed Princess Wannian and found that she was still very intelligent and politically intelligent.
A woman who chose to marry a general when such troubled times were approaching cannot be said to have a certain kind of talent.
Long term perspective.
In troubled times, only those with soldiers have power.
Marrying into a noble family is not necessarily a good thing, because troubled times themselves mean the destruction of the old order.
As the mainstay of the old order, the noble families will definitely be brutally impacted.
Yan Xing was quickly called.
When he saw that Princess Wannian was there, he seemed to understand something.
He stepped forward and saluted: "Meet your majesty, general."
Liu Bian raised his hand and said: "Yan Sima doesn't need to be polite."

Liu Cheng asked: "Yan Ming, just now the princess said that she and you are in love, and you want to get married, is that true?"
Princess Wannian has a bit of a shrewd temperament, but Yan Xing is a bit rigid and unsmiling by nature.
When Liu Cheng asked him about marriage in person, he was a little embarrassed and turned red, "The princess and I are indeed in love."
Yue, but the elders still have to make the final decision on marriage matters."
This is not wrong.
In this era, men and women cannot decide on their own marriages.
They must be presided over by elders, otherwise they will be privately married for life.
Liu Cheng said: "Your Majesty has no objection to the marriage between you two.
As your brother, I will make the decision for your parents.
If you agree to this marriage, please ask your Majesty to grant the marriage and get it done as soon as possible.
So as not to give Dong Zhuo a chance to cause trouble, we are in an extraordinary period now, so we must act carefully and thoughtfully, and we must not let Dong Zhuo reach into the palace."
Liu Biandao: "What the emperor said is true, just follow the emperor's words.
I have come and issued a decree to marry Princess Wannian and Sima Yanxing of the Huben Army."
Liu Cheng said quickly: "Your Majesty, wait a moment, the official position of this Tiger and Guard Army Sima is too low.
After all, he is about to marry the princess.
The official status of the princess's future husband is too low for the royal family, which is not good-looking."
Liu Bian thought it made sense when he heard it.
After all, he was his future brother-in-law.
A military commander was indeed too cheap.
He said: "Nowadays, there seems to be only one military commander in the palace.
I think it's better to just call him a general.
What's his name?"
Where is the general?"
Yan Xing hurriedly bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, please take back your order.
Yan Xing was made a general without any merit.
It is really difficult to convince the public."
At this time, the military generals in the Han Dynasty were not so big as to block the streets.
Take the military generals under Dong Zhuo as an example.
After Dong Zhuo came to power, he was relatively restrained in the appointment of military generals and officials.
The military generals under Dong Zhuo had the highest rank.
That is to say, the generals of Zhonglang.
Lu Bu, Niu Fu, Li Su, and Hu Zhen are all generals of Zhonglang.
Dong Min is the captain of Fengche.
In addition, Li Jue, Guo Si and others stationed in Xiliang are also the captains of the school. , Zhang Ji and Duan Xuan were also school captains.
Liu Cheng also said: "Your Majesty, it is better to be cautious in the promotion of generals.
Between ministers, let him be a prince consort."
In fact, at the end of the Han Dynasty, there was no saying that the official position of Prince Consort Duwei was exclusively for the husband of a princess.
It was not until the Wei and Jin Dynasties that because several emperors' sons-in-law were appointed as Prince Consort Commandery one after another, this official position gradually became exclusive to the emperor's son-in-law.
Because of his official position, the princess's husband was also called the consort by officials and people.
The Fengche Captain and the Prince Consort Captain were actually the captain and deputy captain of the emperor's chariot team.
They were not very high-ranking officials, but because they were relatively close to the emperor and could always be with the emperor, their status was extraordinary.
Since the official position of Prince Consort became the exclusive official position for the emperor's son-in-law, Prince Consort was no longer responsible for the safety of the emperor's imperial convoy.
It was just a false position that was meant to wait until death.
Seeing what Liu Cheng said, Liu Bian issued an edict: "Come here, I will ennoble Yan Xing to the Prince Consort Commandery, grant the marriage to Princess Wannian and Prince Consort Yan Xing, and order the Zong Zhengfu to choose a good and auspicious day for the marriage of the two."
"According to the decree," a minister agreed and immediately drafted an edict.

Because the Prince Consort was a military officer in the palace, he did not need to go through the minister's desk.
The emperor could directly appoint him.
Marriage was a family matter, and the edict did not need to go through the minister's desk. , Palace affairs and the appointment and removal of official generals were beyond Dong Zhuo's control.
This was one of the details of the original agreement between Liu Cheng and Dong Zhuo.
After talking about this matter, Liu Bian said again: "Uncle Huang, I haven't seen my brother for a month, and I don't know how he is doing lately."
Princess Wannian was also quite worried: "Yes, my brother-in-law is only nine years old.
He is too young.
I don't know if there is anyone to serve me when I am alone outside."
Liu Cheng comforted: "I heard that Dong Zhuo is building a mansion for King Chenliu recently.
It seems that Dong Zhuo is quite polite to King Chenliu.
Your Majesty and Princess don't have to worry.
If Your Majesty and Princess really miss King Chenliu, you can send someone If I go to declare an order to King Chenliu to enter the palace to see him, Dong Zhuo will probably not make things difficult for me.
At best, he will send someone to escort him here, and then escort him back."
"This is the only way, Emperor, please hurry up and order your brother to come to the palace."
Princess Wannian said to Liu Bian impatiently.
"Okay, I will order him to come to the palace tomorrow."
Liu Cheng knew Dong Zhuo's thoughts very well.
Dong Zhuo took away Chenliu King Liu Xie because he wanted to use Liu Xie to remind him all the time, so that he would always remember that even though the emperor was in his hands, Dong Zhuo There is also King Chenliu.
If the two sides break up, Dong Zhuo can still depose him.
It was already past noon when Liu Cheng returned to the general's mansion.
After dinner, he sent people to summon his counselors and general officials to go to the general's mansion to discuss matters at night.
In the evening, Zhang Ji, who went to collect money from the houses of ministers and officials, came back.
Following him, there were several carriages that were bumping slowly.
The carriages contained large wooden boxes stacked one after another.
The box contained all five baht coins.
The big box filled with five baht coins was quickly unloaded by the soldiers and moved to the mansion.
After dinner, the staff, generals and officials all arrived one after another, and the lobby of the general's mansion seemed a bit crowded.
After Liu Cheng arrived, everyone clasped their fists and saluted: "Greetings, my lord."
"You are all exempt from the courtesy, please sit down."
Liu Cheng pressed his hands and asked everyone to sit down and said: "Today at the court meeting, the court decided to suppress the bandits in Hedong.
I, the general, will lead the army to go out.
I believe some of you have already received it.
There's a little bit of news, and the matter has been settled."
Wu Fu stood up and clasped his fists and said: "General, I heard that Dong Zhuo is responsible for this.
He is trying to consume our strength."
"Yes."
Some people agreed with Wu Fu's point of view.
Liu Cheng said: "Dong Zhuo must have the idea of consuming our army's strength.
At the same time, he also wants to get my general and the Northern Army out of Luoyang so that we will not get in the way.
This general only agreed to this matter after careful consideration.
Mainly How many Reasons: First, although the banditry problem is not as serious as Dong Zhuo said, it has indeed reached a level that cannot be ignored.
If the banditry problem is not solved, Hedong will rot, which will threaten the safety of Luoyang.
Dong Zhuo is cruel and unkind.
We are responsible for the life and death of the people, but we cannot sit idly by, otherwise we will be different from Dong Zhuo.
Secondly, it has been more than two months since the Beijun Army was restructured and trained, and it is time to test the training results during this period with actual combat.

Thirdly, it has always been.
It was me, Liu Cheng, who was fighting Dong Zhuo in the beginning.
Now it is time for us to make way for Dong Zhuo so that he can have the energy to fight with all the forces in the DPRK and China.
We cannot let the forces in the DPRK and China hide behind and watch the fun.
Let them contribute.”
Xun Yu stood up and cupped his hands and said: "What my lord is doing is really wonderful.
If my lord leads his troops to leave Luoyang, Dong Zhuo will have no opponent, so he will naturally have to fight against others."
