Chapter 361: Unintentional Power
"If you insist on this, I won't be reluctant!" The emperor knows their personalities too well, and if he uses his power to order them to bow their heads, he is afraid that he will lose them completely.
"Thank you for your father!" They spoke in unison.
"You are the people I want to stay by my side the most, but your heart is not here, remember to come back to see me often in the future!" He was getting older, and he didn't know how many years he would live.
"Please rest assured, Erchen and Xia'er will definitely come back often!" Jun Qianchen said.
However, even if he comes back in the future, he will not stay long.
The emperor is his father, and there are some things he can't refuse all the time, otherwise he is afraid that it will cause him dissatisfaction.
After listening to Jun Qianchen's words, the emperor was in a slightly better mood.
Subsequently, Bai Linxia wanted to ask the emperor to revoke her title of county lord.
However, the emperor insisted on reservations, after all, the holy decree had been issued, and there was no possibility of taking it back.
Generally, if the emperor rewards the person, if he does not make a big mistake, the title will never be canceled.
After Bai Linxia found out, he didn't mention the matter.
Since the title of the county lord cannot be withdrawn at will, she can only accept it.
"Do you plan to stay in Qinghe Town in the future, or do you want to go to Jinzhou to live permanently?" The emperor asked suddenly.
"Erchen and Xia Er have decided to go back to Qinghe, there are officials sent by my father in Jinzhou, and it will definitely get better and better!" Jun Qianchen's implication was that they didn't plan to return to Jinzhou easily.
After all, the emperor has always been worried that their power is too great, and he is unwilling to let them hold the power of Jinzhou.
He and Bai Linxia are not greedy for power, and since the emperor has scruples, they are not willing to interfere anymore.
Anyway, they only have responsibility for Jinzhou, and Qinghe Town is their home.
"Jinzhou is the fief I gave to Xia'er, and you will need to take care of Jinzhou's affairs in the future!" After the emperor heard the meaning of his words, he sighed silently in his heart.
In the past, he was indeed afraid that Jun Qianchen and Bai Linxia would have undue ambitions, and the eldest prince and other courtiers often provoked in his ears, so that he guarded against them everywhere.
However, when the emperor saw that they did not hesitate to let go of everything in Jinzhou and leave like this, he figured it out in his heart.
In fact, it was his heart that was deceived from the beginning, if Jun Qianchen really wanted power, he would not have left Qidu with Bai Linxia in the first place.
People are sometimes easy to be blinded, even the emperor is no exception.
"Erchen and Xia Er must live up to their father's expectations!" Jun Qianchen said with no abnormality on his face, but his inner decision was not shaken in the slightest.
Although Jinzhou is Bai Linxia's fiefdom, they all plan to let it go, otherwise sooner or later there will be another trouble.
After Bai Linxia and Jun Qianchen left the imperial study, their mood was very delicate.
None of them expected that the emperor would no longer want to deprive them of their rights as before.
At that time, when they were in Jinzhou, the emperor was eager to get back all the rights in their hands.
Now they offered to live in Jinzhou.
However, Jun Qianchen and Bai Linxia's minds will not change in the slightest because of his words.
All this time, they have no intention of power, but the selfishness of those who fear them is at work.
They are so ambitious that they think that everyone else is the same for them, and they want to control the power......
The next day, Bai Linxia received a call from the queen and went to Fengyi Palace.
"Xia'er, this palace heard from the emperor, are you going to leave?" The queen took her hand and asked her to sit beside her.
"Yes!" Bai Linxia didn't want to get involved in the disputes in the palace, and it was their wish to leave.
"Why don't you want to stay, with the protection of the palace and the emperor in the future, you will definitely be able to live as you want in Qidu without any worries!" Privately, the queen wants them to stay.
Like the emperor, she was deeply favored by Aunt He.
Now, they just want to give Bai Linxia the best, but unfortunately she doesn't want to accept it......
"Thank you for your kindness, but we like to live without constraints!" It's too depressing to stay in Qidu, and you have to be on guard against the eldest prince and his henchmen at any time.
Such a day is not what Bai Linxia is looking forward to.
"Xia'er, Aunt He helped the palace and the emperor without reservation, we really want to repay her, but unfortunately Aunt He went early, if you can live well, I believe she will be deeply comforted in the spirit of heaven!" The queen had no choice, so she wanted to use Bai Linxia's biological mother to keep her.
"Niangniang's kindness, Linxia understands it, but we really don't want to stay here, and we ask Niangniang to forgive us!" After Bai Linxia saw her eyes, he felt a little helpless.
She could feel that the queen was sincere to her.
However, she didn't want to force herself to stay.
"In that case, how about you give us a chance to repay Aunt He?" The queen has been in charge of the harem for so many years, how could she not see her true heart.
The queen guessed that Bai Linxia would refuse at the beginning, so she deliberately retreated and asked her to agree to her request.
"Good!" Bai Linxia knew in his heart that if he repeatedly refused, the queen would definitely be displeased.
So, she agreed.
However, Bai Linxia had already decided that he would not stay, let alone ask for their valuables.
"Both the palace and the emperor intend to make you a princess, what do you think, Xia'er?" Queen's Road.
"Linxia is now the county lord, this identity is very good, there is no need to make me a princess!" Bai Linxia refused.
She made it clear to the emperor, she thought that the matter was over, but Bai Linxia didn't expect the queen to mention it.
"If you become a princess, the people below shouldn't despise you, Xia'er, think about it!" The queen took great pains to persuade her.
"Niangniang, I will definitely not stay in Qidu in the future, the title of princess is dispensable for me!" So she didn't want to be so troublesome.
"You're always so stubborn!" The queen sighed.
In fact, she knew that what Bai Linxia said was all the truth, since she had no intention of staying here, it really didn't matter if she was a princess or not.
However, after the queen's repeated stays, Bai Linxia and Jun Qianchen still decided to stay in Qidu for a while longer.
Bai Linxia wrote a letter to his parents, explaining the matter and asking them not to remember it.
Afterwards, they settled in Qidu with peace of mind.
During these days, Bai Linxia and Jun Qianchen lived very together, and for those who wanted to curry favor, they were gone.
They only have dealings with Cheng Yifan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and Xie Xiaohouye, and these people have a very close relationship with them and are worthy of deep friendship......
During this period, they often accompanied the emperor and queen to dine.
Since the emperor let down his guard against them, they have gotten along a lot better.
The emperor also hopes that they can always be by his side.
After not involving power, their father-son relationship eased slightly, but Jinzhou has now officially become Bai Linxia's fiefdom.
The emperor handed over all the power to Bai Linxia.
After they stayed in Qidu for a while, they decided to go back to Jinzhou to see the situation.
Bai Linxia was worried that those ambitious people would take advantage of their absence to do things in private.
Although the emperor was reluctant in his heart, he couldn't stop it, after all, Jinzhou was handed over to them by himself.
This is their responsibility, and the emperor dislikes those who shirk their responsibilities the most.
Before leaving, the emperor and the queen gave them a lot of good things.
Bai Linxia didn't want to accept it, but he couldn't refuse at all.
The emperor ordered her to accept it, and Bai Linxia had no choice but to put everything in a few boxes that he carried with him.
Originally, when they came to Qidu, there were only a few years of clothes in the box, and some jewelry that she usually likes to use, but now it is almost full.
The queen and the emperor had a lot of good things in their private vaults, and in order to make them easier on the road, they were rewarded with some precious jewelry and jade pendants of excellent quality......
When the ministers of the court learned of this, they were all a little worried, because judging from the emperor's attitude, he would not take back the power of Jinzhou.
In the past, they felt that handing over the power of Jinzhou to a woman was a distrust of the courtiers.
As a result, now they no longer dare to make any complaints.
After all, Bai Linxia and Jun Qianchen are deeply trusted by the emperor.
As a result, some ministers in the court let their wives and daughters secretly curry favor with Bai Linxia and wanted to befriend her.
In this way, they can also get some help in the previous dynasty.
Although the Seventh Prince no longer interferes in the affairs of the court, he and Bai Linxia are irreplaceable in the emperor's mind.
At present, the situation in the court is very grim, and Jun Qianchen, who does not have any power in his hands, has become the most reassuring person in the emperor.
The lack of power means that he will not fight for the throne, nor will he have ill intentions towards the emperor.
The emperor's most taboo is to fight for power and profit......
So, all the ministers wanted to be friendly with Bai Linxia and let her speak for them in front of the emperor.
After Bai Linxia and Jun Qianchen met with the wife of an official who tried to give them a gift, they closed their doors directly.
They don't want to have any dealings with the ministers of the court, and they won't accept these gifts.
Previously, they had to put a lot of effort into leaving Qidu and unloading the burden on their bodies, and these people's behavior was clearly trapping her and Jun Qianchen to a disadvantage.
Bai Linxia didn't want the emperor to be suspicious again, seeing that they were about to leave Qidu, they must not make any mistakes at this time.
For their refusal to accept gifts, all the ministers regretted in their hearts.
Their reluctance to receive those things means that their plan has failed, and how can they not be disappointed.
The people in the court are not fuel-efficient lamps, they are full of energy to climb up, in order to be able to go down to ten thousand people.
Although they cannot become emperors, they can also be extremely powerful.
However, Bai Linxia and Jun Qianchen are both masters of oil and salt, and no one wants to get into any loopholes.
Although those ministers were disappointed in their hearts, they were not angry, after all, Bai Linxia and Jun Qianchen were treated equally.
This time, no one got the slightest advantage from them.
The emperor saw their actions in his eyes and was very happy in his heart.
He rewarded Bai Linxia with so many good things, she didn't want to accept them, let alone the things sent by those ministers?
After Jun Qianchen and Bai Linxia packed up their things, they left Qidu the next day.
Before leaving, they went to bid farewell to the emperor and queen, and the queen's eyes were red.
She really took care of Bai Linxia as her daughter, but unfortunately she still couldn't keep her heart.
Bai Linxia likes freedom too much, and he doesn't like to be restrained at all.
Since this was her wish, the queen finally did not use her rights to force her......
After the carriage slowly left Qidu, Bai Linxia's whole person was relaxed.
She let out a breath of turbid air and said, "Finally left!" ”
