Chapter 59 You are not a minister
Zhu Yuyan asked someone to give Zhong Ena back the gift. Zhong Ena picked a few of them and left them, and asked someone to send the rest back.
The next day, she came over again and walked around Ziyun Pavilion, her tone was envious, "It's really good to live here, it's quiet in the midst of the noise. When I saw you that day, I saw that you were different."
Yuyan could understand what she said and smiled, "I'm just a person who doesn't have much pursuit."
Zhong Ena waved his hand and told his people to go down. Yuyan also turned her head and looked at Linglong and the others. Only the two of them were left in the room. Zhong Ena smiled and said, "I like to say something directly. Your third sister is just a stupid one. I really don't know where she got such confidence?"
Yuyan didn't answer the conversation, and Zhong Ena felt more and more relieved and held her hand, "Sister, if there is one day in the future, if you encounter difficulties, tell me that I will do my best."
Yuyan did not refuse, "There will be a day. We should all be able to seek benevolence in our lives!"
"That's good!"
The army returned on the winter solstice. The first day, Xiao Jingyu came back from school and saw Zhu Yuyan, "Sister Yan, Master will be on holiday tomorrow. I will go outside the city to greet Wang Shang and brother. You go with me!"
Yuyan also wanted to go, but she couldn't, "When you see your brother, please help me ask him, okay. I heard that he won the battle, it's so great!"
"Yes, I heard that he captured the general of the Liao Dynasty alive. This time, who dares to look down on us again!"
Yuyan didn't sleep all night, and the battle report had already been heard. This time, Zhou Xuan led her 5,000 cavalry to achieve some results. Yuyan could not imagine what kind of scenery would be when Xiao Jingyong entered the city tomorrow. The young general, with a jade-like appearance, walked by the Shangjing city on a tall horse. The fiery red cloak and the sharp Fangtian painting halberd would be the dream in the hearts of countless girls.
The next day, Yuyan kept kneeling in front of the Buddha statue. Her heart seemed to be able to penetrate the thick palace walls and follow the figure like a god of war from outside the city to inside the city.
In the evening, a grand banquet was held in Tai Chi Hall. At the meeting, Xiao Dingquan took Xiao Jingyong's hand and walked up the jade stairs together. However, Xiao Jingyong did not walk to the last floor. He knelt at Xiao Dingquan's feet, "Your Majesty, I dare not!"
"You are not a minister, you are my nephew!"
"My son dare not!"
In the contemptuous eyes of Xiao Dingtai and others, Xiao Dingquan was so moved by Xiao Jingyong's words and deeds that he almost burst into tears. He personally helped Xiao Jingyong up, "Your father died early, you are my relative's son. This time you made such a great contribution. I am really sorry if you don't reward you!"
Xiao Dingquan asked Zhao Lingwen, "I want to make him the prince, what do you think?"
"I think it's perfect!"
Many old ministers in the palace had followed the old king. The former king had great expectations for Xiao Jingyong at that time. Even the former king put in a lot of effort to make Xiao Jingyong grow up as soon as possible, and how much hope he could live a few more years so that Xiao Jingyong would be more rewarded and more contributions, and would be able to convince the public in the future.
It’s a pity that the elderly can’t wait for the teenager to go first!
At this time, it was not too much for Xiao Jingyong to get the position of a prince in the hearts of the ministers. But in the eyes of Xiao Dingtai and others, it was clearly a snatch of power. Even Xiao Dingtai and Xiao Dingmin were despised, thinking that supporting an incompetent young man could compete with them?
To them, this is a huge joke.
At night, when he returned to Ganlu Palace, Xiao Dingquan did not expect that Yuwei and Yuyi were waiting for him. He looked at the girl with obsessive eyes, but waved her to go. After washing and lying down, Xiao Dingquan relieved his desires and hugged Yuwei, "I heard that the girl from Zhong's family has arrived?"
Yuwei said "Yes", "I have seen it. I am really a beauty. If I am a man, I will definitely be moved."
Xiao Dingquan was not particularly concerned about these things. For him, women were really within their reach. He weighed it, "Jingyong is already quite old and was named his prince today. I guess the girls in the capital will go crazy, and you should worry about him."
"It's my fault, I should have been worrying about him for a long time. But I don't know if the king has a suitable candidate in his heart?"
"You must be a person who is in the same heart and virtue as us, so that you can be more concerned about Jingyong in the future. You can do this!"
Those who are in the same heart and virtue as them? For a moment, Yuwei really couldn't think of a candidate.
Seeing Yuwei frowning, Xiao Dingquan coughed lightly. At this time, he could no longer remember what Yuyan was like. His mind was filled with the soft feeling of hugging the girl when Yuyi rushed towards him, and he said, "I remember you have a sister!"
"The King is talking about Yuyan?" Yuwei already understood that Xiao Dingquan was preparing to keep Yuyi by his side. Sure enough, for a man, he would get the moon first, but at this time, she had no choice. "I also think it's very good, but I'm not old enough!"
"What's this?" Xiao Dingquan said indifferently, "The concubine of the East Palace is still the niece of the concubine of the concubine of the first prince."
Yuwei thought of the rumors outside. The Eastern Palace Concubine was actually affair with Xiao Dingquan. When she learned that Xiao Dingquan wanted to seek the throne of her son, she finally stood on her son's side and turned against Xiao Dingquan. Xiao Dingquan was afraid that his bullying of his sister-in-law would be exposed, so she forced the Eastern Palace Concubine to death. Thinking of the rumors outside, Yuwei followed her and said, "The King said so!"
Xiao Dingquan thought of Zhong telling him that he wanted to take his niece over, and he told him several times how beautiful and young her niece was, and she was old now. Xiao Dingquan naturally understood what it meant here. When men have power, women are just icing on the cake, but the legitimate wife still needs to respect him. He hugged Yuwei's shoulder, "I think, bring your three sisters into the palace, and it's okay to complete the house after she is in the hairpin. No matter who has a son in the harem in the future, you will be carried to raise him. Don't be afraid of those who have nothing. No matter what, if you die in the future, you will be the queen mother, and everyone must respect you!"
Yuwei was moved for a moment and covered his mouth, "The king is not allowed to say this. If the king can take care of me, I will be satisfied."
The next day, Yuwei asked someone to invite Yuyan and told her the king's words, "It's not that the king does not trust Jingyong. He is still young and has no firm ears. He is afraid that he will not be in agreement with the king if he listens to others. This will not do him any good."
Yuyan grabbed the edge of the kang tightly. She couldn't hide her excitement, but she still tried her best to say calmly, "Sister, Yuyan dare not disobey her words. Sister, Yuyan is good, Yuyan knows!"
"Of course I know that you are just too willful. Yuyi is more calm than you. I originally wanted to keep you by my side."
But Yuyan no longer wanted to be a concubine for Xiao Dingquan. She pursed her lips, "Three sisters are younger. Before I came, my father repeatedly reminded me that if my sister can help me take good care of my third sister, I will be satisfied."
