Chapter 465 The Eve of the Wedding
However, in the end, she ended up like this, with her own son choosing to hold a wedding while she was seriously ill. It sounds really tragic.

However, he was already heartbroken and didn't care about these things at all. At the same time, the princess of the Khmer Empire also received a gift from the emperor of the Khmer Empire.

The letter urged her to marry Zhu Xiong Ying no matter what.

Only by marrying such a person could one bring sufficient benefits to the Khmer Empire.

If she had married Zhu Yunwen, it wouldn't have made much difference to the Khmer Empire.

Upon hearing these words, the princess of the Khmer Empire's eyes were filled with sorrow.

You should know that her father and mother have always doted on her and given her whatever she wanted. This is the first time something like this has happened.

He knew Zhu Xiong Ying's personality and didn't like it because it was too domineering. On the contrary, although Zhu Yun Wen's personality was a bit weak, he could control him better.

This is a great start.

Thinking about this matter and what follows makes me feel very restless.

The key point is that his father was very stern in the letter, stating that if he married Zhu Yunwen...

I severed all ties with him.

In a foreign land, if he were to lose the support of his family and completely cut off contact with his maternal family, his life would probably be very difficult. Thinking of this, she felt very angry.

"In the beginning, couldn't they have considered my feelings more? Zhu Xiong Ying has such a violent and bloodthirsty personality, how could I possibly want to marry him!"

"Anyway, this matter is already decided, and there's absolutely no possibility of it changing!"

Thinking of this, the princess of the Khmer Empire was furious.

She thought that this might just be her father's angry words, and that once she really married Zhu Yunwen, the deed would be done and he would naturally not blame her anymore.

Thinking of this place filled her with excitement, and her eyes shone with undisguised joy.

In order to enhance his reputation, Zhu Yunwen gritted his teeth and used all the money he had accumulated over the years to hold this wedding.

Regardless, Zhu Yunwen was a prince and grandson of the emperor, so all the proper etiquette and protocol would naturally apply.

Therefore, such a set appears extremely luxurious.

The princess of the Khmer Empire was overjoyed upon hearing this news.

After all, she didn't want a grand marriage. Although she couldn't marry Zhu Xiong Ying, marrying Zhu Yun Wen was still a good choice.

On the day of the wedding, Zhu Yuanzhang, Crown Prince Zhu Biao, and Zhu Xiong Ying had already arrived at this place.

Zhu Yunwen hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, his eyes filled with provocation as he looked at Zhu Xiong Ying, seemingly very proud of what he had just done.

Zhu Xiong Ying ignored those looks and just smiled as she spoke.

"Now that you've settled down and started a family, you should focus on building your career and contribute to the prosperity of our Great Ming Empire!"

Zhu Yunwen frowned upon hearing this, then smiled and said, "But of course, the Ming Dynasty belongs to my Zhu family, and we will naturally strive for it!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Xiong Ying smiled and nodded.

"Good, it's good that you have this awareness. Now that several adult princes have been stationed in various places, it means you've grown up. My father, my grandfather, and I have already discussed it. After you get married, we will send you to your fiefdom. You must guard the borders for our Great Ming!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yunwen's smile instantly turned gloomy, and he stared at Zhu Xiong Ying in disbelief.

This is going to throw it to the ground, which is not good. If he really gets to the ground, it won't be easy to come back. At this moment, he was very flustered and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and Crown Prince Zhu Biao beside him.

However, before he could speak, Zhu Yuanzhang patted him on the shoulder and said something.

"Our Yunwen has grown up and can defend the borders of the Ming Dynasty. Don't worry, this time your grandfather will definitely choose a suitable fief for you!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yiwen's eyes were filled with struggle. He truly did not want to go there. Yingtian Prefecture was extremely prosperous, and he had grown up in this place since childhood. Could there be a better place in the world than Yingtian Prefecture? He looked at the place in front of him.

Crown Prince Zhu Biao hurriedly said.

"Father, I don't want to leave Yingtian Prefecture yet, otherwise I won't get married!"

Crown Prince Zhu Biao frowned upon hearing this.

"How can you do this? This was all agreed upon. How can you go back on your word? If people find out about this, they'll say that our Ming Dynasty is ignorant of manners!"

"You are my son, and you will inevitably go to your fiefdom in the future, sooner or later. Not to mention you, aren't my brothers and uncles also in various places?"

Zhu Yunwen was in a great inner struggle.

Can he be compared to his uncles? Those uncles were princes themselves, and their fathers' positions were very secure, with no possibility of any wavering. But Zhu Xiong Ying was different.

Zhu Xiong Ying was at most a grandson of the crown prince, and moreover, the civil officials in the court mostly supported him, not Zhu Xiong Ying. Why would they send him to the countryside when there was such a good opportunity? This made him extremely anxious, and he immediately glanced at Huang Zicheng, Lian Zining, Qi Tai and others behind him.

The men's faces also looked very grim.

Their current status is all thanks to Zhu Yunwen. If Zhu Yunwen were to leave for another region, the chances of them staying in Yingtian Prefecture would be slim.

This had a huge impact on them. Thinking about this place made them very anxious. At this moment, Qi Tai stepped forward and said something.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince, Prince Yunwen is still too young to be sent to his fiefdom. Moreover, many officials in the court hold Prince Yunwen in high regard. Why not let him handle government affairs in Yingtian Prefecture, just like the Twelfth Prince?"

The others nodded frantically upon hearing this. Nowadays, most of the adult princes have already left Yingtian Prefecture, except for some who are indeed unsuitable for war or who do not have much ability.

One of the special individuals is the twelfth prince, Zhu Bai.

The twelfth prince, Zhu Bai, is now an important member of the cabinet.

It is precisely for this reason that he has not yet established his own private life, but no one in the entire court dares to underestimate him if Zhu Yunwen also becomes a member of the cabinet.
