The harmonious appearance of this family fell into the eyes of the emperor, and there was more and more an indescribable taste in his heart.

If he had made a different choice at the beginning, would such a simple and warm happiness belong to him?

But there are not so many ifs in this world.

His choice has become a given fact.

Nothing can be changed, he can only put away the faint loneliness in his eyes, stepped forward and smiled: "Haha, okay, Ruowei, the fourth brother and Changfeng have just come back, and they want to catch up on the old days, you still have a lot of time." At this moment, a banquet has been set up in the palace, so let's go back first. ”

Yongning Hall –

Because of the victory of King Rong's army and the signing of a peace agreement with Beixuan, Emperor Longyan Dayue set up a banquet in the palace.

Lu Changfeng thought that he would be able to go back to rest after eating a meal of wine in the palace, but who knew that after three rounds of drinking, the emperor suddenly looked at him and Ge Qingqiu, and smiled: "This time, the two of you not only defeated Beixuan, but also rectified the local government affairs in Suzhou, and took care of the corrupt Zhou Xianzong, I am very relieved." Have you two figured out what you want?"

After hearing this, Lu Changfeng's heart then chuckled, and he threw a puzzled look at the prince opposite.

That expression was obviously asking him what was going on, didn't he say that he would help him hide it?

Lu Moyan's face froze, and he turned aside unnaturally, looking at the emperor: "Suzhou is too corrupt and perverts the law, and it should be severely punished." Father, Changfeng is already an incomparably noble county king, and it is not uncommon to reward him with gold, silver and jewelry.

This is a very subtle statement.

It means to tell King Rong Jun that the emperor does already know, and it is useless to deny it now.

Lu Changfeng weighed it, and also stepped forward and said: "The minister really shouldn't go to Suzhou without permission, I don't dare to ask Your Majesty for reward, I just ask Your Majesty to forgive the minister's sins for the sake of the minister's cause." ”

After saying that, I saw the emperor smile slightly.

"Eh, what sin is not sinful? I am not such a pedantic king, this girl is affectionate and righteous to you, she was injured and poisoned, and you delayed the trip back to Beijing in order to save her, which is understandable. Suzhou is too corrupt and perverts the law, and he deserves it. You two took care of him for me, and I deserve to be rewarded. ”

These words are very subtle.

did not punish King Rong Jun for leaving without permission during the march, and even praised him for his handling of Suzhou Taishou, which means that he does not intend to pursue it.

But he didn't directly agree, gave him and Ge Qingqiu a marriage, and even tactfully told Lu Changfeng that he knew everything that happened in the army, and even Ge Qingqiu's poisoning, he was also clear.

This kind of demeanor that seemed to see through everything made King Rong Jun's heart more and more worried.

His expression was a little unnatural for a while, he twisted his eyebrows, thought for a while, and then kowtowed again.

"Your Majesty Shengming, but this matter is mainly due to His Royal Highness the Prince, the minister and Qingqiu, but they are just doing their best, and they really don't dare to take credit. ”

The emperor laughed and raised his hand to point at him: "You kid, this is not honest. Yan'er is my son, what will he do, can I not know? I have never heard of him calling for wind and rain!"

This posture is clear, and he just said: he knows everything, so it's best not to do anything to hide it.

After that, he looked at Ge Qingqiu, who had been silent on the side: "Okay, the main credit for this matter is not yours, girl, this credit is yours, and the reward should naturally belong to you." Whatever you want, just ask for it now. ”

Ge Qingqiu's heart was not very stable.

She knows very well what it means to be a companion to a king like a companion, and the emperor's current smiling appearance does not mean that he really appreciates what he does.

Especially before she also led troops out of Beijing privately, if she was the emperor, and now she is trying to find an excuse to kill herself, it is not so difficult to understand.

Thinking of this, she didn't dare to speak more and more, and was hesitating to herself, Princess Yanyi on the side opened her mouth with a smile at this time.

"Sister Qingqiu, what are you still thinking? Now that you and your cousin are great heroes praised by everyone in the country, don't you take this opportunity to mention the conditions to your father? Everything is the best, and your father will definitely not refuse you!"

Ge Qingqiu was stunned for a moment, and instantly understood the meaning of the princess's words.

This is telling herself that now that she and King Rongjun are winning the hearts of the people, no matter how much dissatisfaction the emperor has, he will not explode at this moment.

At this moment, her heart calmed down slightly, raised her head, and said very obediently and obediently: "Your Majesty has praised it falsely, Qingqiu is a female streamer, and what she does is just some things, how dare you ask for a reward? Your Majesty does not restrict what jewelry to reward, Qingqiu does not choose." ”

"Hahaha, what a clever girl. If you say so, if I am a bad reward, it will be a joke. The emperor immediately laughed, pondered for a moment, and said loudly, "Well, you have contributed to the victory of Changfeng in Beixuan, and you have begged for rain to resolve the drought for the people of Suzhou, so I will make you a national teacher, and give you a mansion and a thousand acres of fertile land." From now on, Wang'er will be diligent and will continue to benefit the people of my Heavenly Dynasty!"

The surrounding civil and military officials immediately got up and congratulated her.

For a while, the voice of "Congratulations to the National Teacher" resounded throughout the Yongning Palace.

Everyone was congratulating Ge Qingqiu on being awarded the title of National Teacher, and King Rongjun knelt there lonely as if he had been forgotten.

Fortunately, Princess Yanyi hadn't forgotten him, smiled again, and leaned over to the emperor: "Father, you are so partial." Why did Sister Qingqiu get a reward, what about my cousin? My cousin almost lost his life on the battlefield this time, how can you give him less reward than Sister Qingqiu?"

The emperor nodded her forehead with a half-smile on his face: "You girl, I see that you are not as attentive to your imperial brothers as this cousin, I look at you coldly, you are like his own sister." ”

Yan Yi raised her eyebrows and said with a smug expression: "Who asked my father to let me follow my cousin when I was a child, then I will naturally be closer to my cousin." ”

said, hugged the emperor's neck, and kept coquettishly: "Oh, father, tell me quickly, what do you want to reward your cousin? ”

In fact, Lu Changfeng could see that the princess was hooking the emperor and asking him to remember the stubble of marriage.

But he always had a premonition in his heart that whatever the emperor said today, he would not make a decision on his marriage with Ge Yatou.
