Chapter 816 Invitation to Invite Rewards
"Compared to the emperor's wife, what I have suffered is nothing more than a drop in the bucket, not worth mentioning."
Lin Jinshu grinned back, then let go of her, and said with a playful smile, "Today, I prepared a surprise for the emperor's wife."
After finishing speaking, she took two steps back to let her gaze point to the corner of the palace gate, and said kindly: "Sister-in-law, please take a look."
Chu Nanzhi looked along, and saw a figure slowly walking out from the corner.
And this person is Sang Qi who she is thinking of.
Although she already knew that this girl had entered Beijing, she couldn't hide her joy when she actually saw her.
She hurried forward to meet her. In this snow-covered palace wall, the master and servant hugged each other tightly, and they were only willing to let go after a long time.
Looking carefully at this foreign princess, she just changed her outfit, and her whole person has become a lot more noble and elegant, like a fairytale beauty who walked out of a medieval castle.
The little ones came forward one after another, pulled Sang Qi by the hem, and kept praising: "Sister Sang Qi, you are so beautiful."
Sang Qi blushed for a while after being praised, and touched their little heads one by one in embarrassment, and replied happily: "My little masters have grown taller again."
Seeing Sang Qi appearing in the palace, Lin Jinxiao immediately thought of Lin Tingyan who had been escorted back, and asked Yin Sinian in a low voice: "Where is the king of Beibin being imprisoned now?"
"I have been imprisoned in Youting Palace."
Yin Sinian looked at the crowd cautiously, and replied in a low voice: "The Sixth Highness has been clamoring to see His Majesty and the Empress, saying that he has something important to present to His Majesty."
"It's just a prisoner, what else can he do."
Lin Jinxiao curled his lips in disdain.
This guy is just trying to find a way to survive now.
Couldn't bear to disturb the good mood of his wife's reunion with everyone at this time, he pretended nothing happened and went forward to urge everyone to enter the palace.
When we arrived at Huaqing Palace, the palace people who had been waiting here rushed forward to wait for everyone to take their seats. The strong charcoal fire made the whole hall wrapped in scorching heat, and we couldn’t feel the chill of winter at all.
Yin Enci asked people to pass dishes to set up a table. After a happy exchange of cups and glasses, all kinds of compliments from the royal family members began to ring out incessantly.
"In less than a year after entering Beijing, His Majesty has already clarified the universe. Now that the world is at peace, it is really a blessing for our empire."
Yin Sinian was also the first to speak: "The veteran believes that with His Majesty's wisdom and resourcefulness, in time, our empire will be able to return to its peak."
"I still have to rely on the support of my two uncles."
Lin Jinxiao raised his wine glass and smiled meaningfully at Yin Sinian and Ji Huaishu.
Counting, it has been several months since I left Beijing, and I don’t know if the two uncles have begun to lead the two families to return the occupied land.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the conversation of the family and nobles also turned to Yin Sinian and Ji Huaishu:
"Over the years, the Tang and Yang families have colluded with the kings to control the government. Thanks to the painstaking efforts of the Taiwei and the Shangshu, they finally ushered in His Majesty's northward journey. It can be said that they have made outstanding contributions and can be regarded as the pillars of the country."
"This is very true. Now that His Majesty is in the country, and there are Taiwei and Shangshu adults to assist His Majesty in governing the government, it will surely create the grand scene of all nations coming to court in the past."
"If we want to say that the most important contribution this time is Consort Ji and Princess Shu, at the time when the court was most in danger, Princess Shu and Concubine not only defended the capital with the few defenders in the city, but also defeated King Qinghe. And escaped, buying time for His Majesty to go north."
Listening to the endless flattering voices in the hall, Yin Enci also smiled sincerely: "This time, the younger generations of Yin and Ji have indeed performed well. The Ai family is very pleased. I hope everyone will continue to work hard for the court. Serve faithfully."
Saying that, he raised his wine glass and looked at the two elders of the Ji family, Ji Muzhou and Ji Muzhuo: "You two old brothers, we have known each other for 40 or 50 years, and the Ai family's journey is all thanks to your help." With all your help, this glass of wine mourns my family and the emperor.”
After finishing speaking, he motioned to Lin Jinxiao.
Lin Jinxiao also knew a little about the origins of the Ji family and the Yin family.
Back then, Yin Xirou, the imperial grandmother's younger sister, married Ji Muzhou, head of the famous Ji family in Qinghe land, and gave birth to her biological mother Givenyin, the old Qinghe princess Ji Fanyu, and uncle Ji Huaishu.
Ji Muzhuo is the biological father of the late Anguo Gong Ji Huaili and the grandfather of Ji Wanying.
Relying on the prestige of the Ji family, the emperor's grandmother successfully entered the palace and became the queen of the world, which also made the Yin family rise along the trend.
In recent years, it is precisely because of the struggle between the Ji family and the Tang and Yang families that the court has been able to balance.
Thinking of this, Lin Jinxiao raised his wine glass and said sincerely, "Grandson respects the two grandfathers."
Ji Muzhou was originally Yin Enci's brother-in-law, but the old ancestor called himself an old brother. He was flattered and quickly raised his wine glass, and replied in fear: "The old ancestor and His Majesty are really flattering the old, and being loyal to His Majesty is the right thing to do." I, the Ji family, have an unshirkable responsibility."
After finishing the words, he added vowedly: "Please rest assured, my ancestors and Your Majesty, as long as we, Yin and Ji, are here, we will surely protect the empire forever."
It was a heartfelt expression of loyalty, but it made Lin Jinxiao feel disgusted.
The country of the empire should rely on the protection of foreign relatives, no matter how you hear it, you feel a little panic.
Chu Nanzhi silently listened to the flattering words of the family and nobles, and she was also muttering in her heart.
Now the little boy is already wary of Yin and Ji's family, but the relatives are still flattering the two families of foreign relatives, and they are all in the meaning of asking for credit for the two families. King Qin's achievements have all gone to Yin and Ji's family, and he seems to have forgotten about those humble scholars who followed Lin Jinxiao to the north and fought to the death.
Just when she was worried about the fate of Yin and Ji, she saw a figure in black plain clothes walking in slowly from outside the hall.
Seeing the person coming, Yin Enci's stretched brows could not help but shudder, and she reprimanded displeasedly: "Wanying, why don't you stay in the mansion to keep filial piety for your mother, and meditate on your own past, what are you doing here?"
"Old ancestor, it was the old man who learned that His Majesty and Empress were returning to the palace today, and specially allowed her to come here to plead guilty to His Majesty and Empress."
Ji Mu Zhuo, an elder of the Ji family, hurriedly got up and walked into the hall, stood beside Ji Wanying, knelt down together, and said earnestly: "Wanying has offended His Majesty and Empress before, and His Majesty and Empress forgive her, but their mother and daughter However, he persisted in his obsession again and again, angering the ancestors and His Majesty, and the old man was deeply disturbed."
Under the guidance of her grandfather, Ji Wanying knelt down and kowtowed in a calm tone: "My sister is here to congratulate the royal brother and the emperor's wife on their honor, and also apologize to the emperor's brother and the emperor's wife for the previous recklessness."
Lin Jinxiao's face darkened suddenly, and he replied in a cold voice: "Since the imperial grandmother has pardoned you, you can stay at the mansion and reflect on your mistakes, and there is no need to enter the palace to plead guilty."
"Your Majesty."
Ji Muzhuo hurriedly begged: "For the sake of her dead father, and for the sake of our Ji family's loyalty to the country for several generations, please take Wanying into the palace and stay in front of your majesty to serve her. She made up for the sins she committed before."
