Chapter 411: Reception Feast 1
Mo Lin Order, Three-edged Arrow, Marching Diagram......
And the experience of knowing each other for nine years!
Although Lin Ruo confessed all this, Murong Chong just felt unwilling and felt aggrieved!
said that it was okay to go with the flow, the closer he got and the more he understood, the more he was fascinated by her. From the fact that she could look at him unabashedly, to the occasional shyly gaze shift, to the meticulous concern, he could feel that Lin Ruo had him in his heart, and Lin Ruo liked him. However, he always found that Lin Ruo was not only so good to him, but also to all the people she cared about......
"Let's change the dressing......"
Murong Chong said sullenly, leaving Lin Ruo with a back.
Lin Ruo clenched his fists and whispered "yes", and then said no more.
Murong Chong silently lay on the bed, pinning his face inward. He could feel Lin Ruo's caution when applying the medicine, as long as she made the slightest sound or movement, she would hurriedly withdraw her hand and gently breathe at the wound.
Rulan's breath brushed through the wound, tickled, scratched on the heart.
"Lord Wang, you rest for a while, and when the medicine penetrates into the texture, I will help you bandage it."
The gentle and slow voice should have been extremely soothing, but Murong Chong felt inexplicably irritable: even the title has been changed back to the prince!
He's obviously not such a calculating person!
He obviously wanted to comfort her, don't take his injury on himself!
He obviously wanted to thank her, it was her clever calculation and arrangement that allowed him to avenge his father, defeat the Beiqi royal court in one fell swoop, kill Midu, and disintegrate the Beiqi Iron Cavalry.
But! It was because of that three-edged arrow that Meng Bin was mentioned.
reminded him of what he said when he talked to her on the second day of marriage.
"'Joan of Arc' is something that can't be eaten as food, can't be used as money, and can't be expected to live on it for the rest of your life. Why should you care? ”
"The prince doesn't mind that he has ever married a wife, but he will mind that the woman he wants to marry has been married. Most of the men in the world are like this. But the prince is too worried, such a man will probably not become my favorite person. ”
Yes, most men in the world will mind that the woman they want to marry has been married.
However, only most, not all.
And the man who likes Lin Ruo and doesn't mind that she has married someone has already appeared.
However, he was reluctant to let Lin Ruo out!
In the huge room, two people with their backs facing each other make the room even more dull.
Murong Chong couldn't help but turn his head and looked at Lin Ruo's back sitting at the table, particularly delicate and lonely. I don't know if it was because he was too focused or too absent-minded, Lin Ruo, who kept brushing the medicinal juice on the gauze, didn't notice the burning gaze behind him.
I don't know how long it took, Murong Chong changed his direction again, closed his eyes and slept lightly, until Lin Ruo whispered to wake him up.
The gauze is wrapped layer by layer from the back to the chest, and from the chest to the back, and every few turns, it is bypassed from the shoulders, flat and meticulous, just like Lin Ruo's temperament.
The open hand, in fact, as long as he gently pressed inward, he could hold the person in his arms, but Murong Chong hesitated and did not move.
"Sting-" With a sound, Lin Ruo cut a small cut at the end of the gauze, tore it hard, and divided it into two halves, half of which bypassed Murong Chong's armpit, and then tied it to the other end, and then picked up the tray and put the rest of the bottles, cans, scissors and other things on the table.
"At the reception banquet, I'm afraid that there are many people who come to toast, and the prince is injured, so it's best not to drink."
Murong Chong looked at Lin Ruo, who lowered his eyelids and silently helped him put on layers of brocade clothes, he wanted to ask her what to do if she pushed but didn't drop, but when she opened her mouth, there was only one word left: "Okay." ”
After that, there was silence again.
At the beginning of Shen Shi, the two of them set off from the palace in a carriage, and at three o'clock in Shen Shi, they arrived at the Lin De Hall and sat down, and the officials who had been in the palace came to congratulate one after another with smiling faces, among them, naturally there were also many Ye Wang Dang.
There are still many people who are close to He Yantao, and even around Xu Zhan and Gu Yannian, who live at the bottom of the seat, there are also a few officials to talk to.
The banquet has not yet begun, and although the wine has been served, no one dares to move.
It was not until the end of the Shen hour was approaching that these ministers, who were either sincere or falsely flattering, returned to the table one after another, waiting for the emperor and the crown prince to arrive surrounded by eunuchs and honor guards.
The courtiers and ladies immediately stood up and saluted, and the mountain shouted long live.
"The Beiqi tribe has been suffering in the north for many years, and now, Shaoqing and He Aiqing have led the troops to defeat their sharpness, and they have returned the peace of my northern territory, and the people are harmonious, and Qing has made great contributions! The officers and men of the three armies have made great contributions! Chen Guan, proclaim. ”
"——!"
The old eunuch Chen Guan held the holy decree in his hand and began to read out the reward.
Murong Chong has already occupied the position of the prince, holding heavy troops, and rewarding him is mostly gold and silver treasures, jewelry, and other brocade fish bags to show his honor; He was promoted to half a level, and as the general of the second-grade town army, he was awarded the edict of his wife Erpin, and there were a lot of gold and silver utensils. The rest of the meritorious ministers, according to their military merits, have a lot of rewards, including Gu Yannian, with his military merits, he was promoted to the deputy governor of Gyeonggi Land.
Gu Ting was on the side, looking at the son who led the order to thank him, and his heart couldn't be calm for a long time.
"Princess Rong takes the order!"
Everyone was stunned, including Lin Ruo. No one thought that among the meritorious heroes who rewarded the great victory in the northern realm, there was also Lin Ruo's reward.
Lin Ruo and Murong Chong glanced at each other, then left the table and knelt in the hall.
"Princess Rong Lin Ruo offered gold mines, military rations, and disaster relief grains, and gave a pair of eight-tailed phoenix hairpins, twelve pairs of Fulu Ruyi, and a set of Hetian Yujiu. In addition, his uncle Lin Qian was given as An Taibo, so that he could avoid seeing the court, enjoy wealth and wealth, and return three generations of shade! ”
Everyone's eyes were focused on Lin Ruo, who was prostrate in the middle of the main hall.
Eight-tailed phoenix hairpin, that's an ornament that can only be worn by a concubine!
That's not all, not to mention the Antaibo that Lin Qian was entitled, the imperial court has never had the title of "Antaibo", which was clearly specially added by the emperor in recognition of the Lin family. From the six words "avoid seeing the court and enjoy wealth", it sounds a bit like the "An Le Gong" with a demeaning after Liu Chan, Emperor Huai of the Shu Han Dynasty at the end of the Three Kingdoms, was captured, however, the intention is exactly the opposite.
Lin Qian, an imperial merchant who was deeply favored by the emperor, became the only rich man with a title in Donglu, and he was no longer the lowest level of business, but became the top of the scholar family.
From now on, even if the Lin family is still a family of businessmen, no one will despise Lin Ruo as a "merchant woman".
In the eyes of everyone, this is the most luxurious reward and the most magnificent imperial grace!
Surprise, envy, jealousy, and mixed feelings, no one felt this feeling more deeply than Gu Ting.
After the reward, Emperor Mingzong raised his glass and said loudly: "Today's banquet is to celebrate the great victory in the north. ”
