Hairpin Phoenix - Chapter 693

   Chapter 693 The Queen of Fanwai (2)

   That night, Jiaofang Hall.

  The large and sturdy phoenix couch is shrouded in red gauze curtains.

The    yarn tent kept shaking slightly for some reason. Occasionally, a heart-warming sound or two could be heard. After a long time, the yarn tent stopped shaking.

   Li Jing let out a sigh of satisfaction, turned sideways, and hugged Lu Mingyu into his arms.

  Lu Mingyu was short of breath and closed his eyes. There were fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

   After a while, Lu Mingyu opened his eyes and met Li Jing’s fiery black eyes.

  Long farewell to the newlyweds.

  The couple have not had the same room for nearly a year. Very intense tonight.

  Lu Mingyu was actually blushed by Li Jing, and gave him a blank look: “You are still taking care of your body, and my body is very weak. I have to be more restrained and stop making trouble.”

   Li Jing smiled lowly: “I just look at you, how can I have the strength to come back again.”

  Lu Mingyu’s cheeks became more red, and he spat at him.

  Li Jing continued to laugh lowly, put his head close, and kissed her lips.

   Husband and wife hug each other and gossip in a low voice.

“The mother is so kind to me.” Lu Mingyu said softly: “I originally thought that the New Year would be over a month away. Let the mother spend the New Year in the Jiaofang Palace before I move in. I never thought about it, but the mother insisted on it. Move out early, and vacate the Jiaofang Palace early.”

   “Today is the canonization ceremony. I, the queen, will be able to live in the Jiaofang Palace tonight. They are all magnanimous and considerate.”

  The harem is fighting for power, and it is not weaker than the court.

   In her previous life, the Queen Mother Su always made things difficult and mean, but it was impossible to see her daughter-in-law living a happy life.

   Queen Mother Qiao is always thinking of her. This affection is hard-hearted, and it is difficult to remain unmoved.

Li Jing chuckled and said: “To tell you the truth, the queen mother actually called me over in private and told me. The queen mother said that if I can successfully ascend the throne, you are the first hero. And the Yue family, who has always been unswerving. Support me. I must treat you well and the Lu family well.”

   Queen Mother Qiao said more than that.

   When mother and son are alone, there is nothing that cannot be said.

  The Queen Mother Qiao didn’t beat around the bush, she said to Li Jing bluntly: “You know Mingyu’s temperament better than anyone else. She can give her life for you.”

   “However, she can’t rub the sand in her eyes. Don’t think about accepting any more beauties, and live in peace with her. Otherwise, it’s not uncommon for her to be turned upside down by her temper.”

  Lu Mingyu himself is amazing, needless to say. There is also the king of Xingyang, who holds a heavy army and protects his daughter like his life. If he turns his face and rebels like the Marquis of Guangping, maybe the dragon chair of the Great Wei Dynasty will be replaced by someone else.

   He didn’t explain anything to his mother, but just smiled: “Don’t worry about my mother. Xiaoyu and I will always be fine.”

   These words, Li Jing did not tell Lu Mingyu.

  Lu Mingyu didn’t ask any further, resting his head on Li Jing’s chest, quietly listening to his heartbeat, and slowly fell asleep.

   A person’s sincerity does not have to be on his mouth all the time.

   As time goes by, real gold can stand the fire.

  …

   The next day, the Son of Heaven was an hour late.

  The courtiers in the Golden Throne Hall silently murmured in their hearts while they waited.

   However, the emperor and the empress have a deep affection, and it is also a good thing for the country. It’s not that they dote on some beauties whose status is unknown and miss Zaochao, so they should not talk too much.

   Li Jing hurriedly walked up to the morning, and took the initiative to self-examine: “I was lazy for a while, got up late, and missed the early morning. This is not an example!”

   is obviously greedy for fun, right!

  The ministers twitched the corners of their mouths.

  Qiao Ge coughed and said, “Occasionally late, it doesn’t matter. The emperor is very strict with self-discipline, which is the blessing of the Great Wei and the blessing of the courtiers.”

   Then, quickly start the government affairs, be sure to divert everyone’s attention in the shortest possible time.

  The ministers are also very cooperative. The Son of Heaven delayed the matter of early morning, and it passed so lightly.

   Halfway through the Xiaochao meeting, there is good news.

   “Report to the emperor,” Eunuch Xiaoyuan, who is now the chief attendant of the Funing Hall, hurried to report with a happy face: “King Xingyang won the battle in Yan, and killed more than a thousand Yan soldiers.”

  Li Jing was overjoyed and immediately said: “Where is the person who delivered the letter, Xuan entered the hall, I will personally ask to understand.”

   After a while, the person who sent the battle report entered the Golden Throne Hall.

   This is a tall and strong middle-aged man with bright eyes and a voice like a bell. It was one of Lu Lin’s most trusted personal soldiers. Li Jing used to lead troops with his father-in-law to fight in the past. He was no stranger to this personal soldier. He opened his mouth and called out his name: “Come here, give Liao Fei a seat!”

   The personal soldier Liao Fei was flattered, insisted on kneeling down, kowtowed and gave a big salute.

  Emperor Xiaoyuan brought the chair personally, but the soldiers refused to sit, insisting on standing and replying: “Young man dare not break the rules, let alone let the general fall into trouble. Please forgive me, the emperor.”

   The king of Xingyang ruled the army strictly, and the military regulations were the most important.

   Even a personal soldier was able to advance and retreat in a moderate manner, facing the courtiers and the emperor of the Wei Dynasty without any confusion.

   Everyone praised King Xingyang once in their hearts, but they listened.

   King Xingyang led the army to the land of Yanchu. He was not in a hurry to divide his troops, but concentrated his forces to clear out the Yan soldiers in Yanjing first. In these days, good news came one after another.

  The people of the capital quickly settled down, the new emperor sat firmly on the dragon chair, and the king of Xingyang made great contributions.

   In this battle, King Xingyang completely defeated the Yan army and stabilized the land of Yan. Next, we have to lead troops to pacify the land of Chu.

   In this battle, Zhao Jiajun also contributed a lot. The fourth prince accompanying the warden personally beheaded the leader of General Yan, and made a great contribution.

  Li Jing was relieved to hear the dragon’s heart, and said goodbye three times in a row.

   All the ministers were even more smiling, one praised King Xingyang’s bravery, and the other praised the bravery of Zhao’s army. However, the fourth prince didn’t say a word.

  Li Jing only pretended not to see the careful thought of the ministers, and said with a smile: “In this battle, the fourth brother has made great contributions. When the army returns, I will appreciate the merits, and I will reward the fourth brother generously.”

   It seems that the emperor is quite friendly to the fourth prince, and there is only joy in his expression, not the slightest reluctance.

   All the ministers secretly let out a sigh of relief.

   The good news of King Xingyang’s great victory was passed to Jiaofang Hall, and Lu Mingyu was overjoyed and in a good mood. Both Li Jue and Li Xuan went to study in the study, only the youngest son Li Con was by his side.

   “Mother,” Li Cong reluctantly changed his mind after being taught for several days, “Why are you so happy?”

  Lu Mingyu pursed his lips and smiled, took Li Conan into his arms, and kissed his son heavily: “Your grandfather won the battle, I’m naturally happy.”

  Li Cong doesn’t understand what fighting is. Seeing that his mother is in a good mood, he takes the opportunity to beg: “Mother, I want a real pony.”

   How can riding a bamboo horse be as majestic as riding a real horse!

   Brothers and sisters have all started to learn to ride horses. He is envious and wants to learn to ride too.

  Lu Mingyu laughed and tapped Li Cong’s nose with his finger: “You are too young. After two years, I will give you a horse and teach you how to ride myself.”
