Chapter 230: Obvious Disgust
The one who came in with Emperor Qingren was naturally Xia Jianchang, who made great achievements this time. As soon as he came in, Xia Qingtong saw him.
smiled sweetly at her grandfather, only to find that Xia Jianchang looked at her with a little guilt.
Uh, what's going on?
Why does Grandpa look at her like this?
After Xia Jianchang glanced at her, he withdrew his gaze.
Xia Qingtong didn't know why. Behind Xia Jianchang were the Yin family's father and son, the two fathers and sons looked calm, but after entering the hall, they looked at the direction of Ming Yue without a trace.
Ming Yue didn't seem to be aware of it.
He didn't look at Xia Qingtong anymore, but picked up the wine glass in front of him and sipped it slowly.
After Empress Yin sat down, she saw Ming Yue's actions. His eyes narrowed slightly, flashing with obvious disgust.
After tonight, she wanted to see how Ming Yue, who was rejected by Emperor Qingren, could stay in Beijing.
β¦β¦
Emperor Qingren is here, and the palace banquet can naturally begin.
Before the feast, Emperor Qingren raised his glass and raised it in the direction of Xia Jianchang.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this time Beidi signed a war-free agreement with my Dongzhao, all because of a loyal and good general like Xiahou. Let's toast Xiahou. β
Xia Jianchang hurriedly knelt down in the direction of Emperor Qingren: "Thanks to the love of the saint, the old minister is ashamed." β
"If I say you can afford it, you can afford it. Ladies and gentlemen, respect Xiahouβ"
Xia Jianchang could only raise a glass.
"To Xiahou." The ministers followed and raised their glasses and signaled to Xia Jianchang.
There was a moment of excitement.
Emperor Qingren toasted and looked at Xia Jianchang: "Xiahou has made great contributions." In recent years, it has been very hard to garrison the border gates. This battle was really beautiful. With such a credit, I don't know what to reward Xia Qing. β
"The old minister is terrified." Xia Jianchang could only kneel down again: "Loyalty to the country is the duty of a courtier, and the old minister does not dare to take credit." β
"Xiahou doesn't have to be polite." As Emperor Qingren spoke, he waved his hand behind him.
The eunuch behind him took out a holy decree and read it on the spot.
Xia Qingtong listened to the content of the holy decree, and said in his heart that this time Emperor Qingren's reward is very powerful.
The title of the Marquis of Jianping was previously reduced by three generations. It will be the next generation of Xia Ruixuan, and the Hou Mansion will become the Bo Mansion.
However, when Xia Zhongyuan's Emperor Qingren issued a holy decree this time, the title of the Marquis of Jianping was hereditary.
What an honor?
The other ministers present looked at Xia Jianchang with a little wrong look. Xia Jianchang still looked calm.
Xia Qingtong was not much happy because of this reward in his heart. After reading a lot of historical stories, she knows that cooking oil with fire is not necessarily a good thing.
After today, I am afraid that the Jianping Marquis Mansion will no longer have the tranquility of the past.
Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the opposite side and found that several princes on the opposite side, except for Ming Yue, were all looking at this side as if they were nothing.
Thinking of the 200,000 army in Xia Jianchang's hands, Xia Qingtong's heart chuckled.
Does Ming Yue think the same way?
Before Xia Qingtong had time to think of that answer, someone stood up in the audience.
"Your Majesty, the minister has his own music."
Xia Qingtong glanced at the person, I heard someone introduce it just now, this person is the imperial historian Zhuang Xinyuan.
"Why does Aiqing have to play on this day?" Emperor Qingren's eyes flashed with obvious displeasure.
"Your Majesty, it's not that the ministers are disappointed, but this matter is very important, and the ministers have to play."
That Zhuang Xinyuan seemed to have made up his mind to play, but Emperor Qingren couldn't, so he had to let him speak.
After Zhuang Xinyuan got permission, he glanced in the direction of Ming Yue, and his expression suddenly became very sharp.
"Your Majesty, the minister wants to participate in the sixth prince Ming Yue."
