Chapter 144: Divide the congratulatory gifts equally

Whenever he looked into King Ning's eyes, Li Jinyan always felt that something was wrong when King Ning looked at him. That kind of love and warmth, with a look of guilt in his eyes, made him incomprehensible.

King Ning was also trembling when he looked at the young man opposite, and he could only suppress the excitement in his heart with wine.

The emperor saw all this in his eyes and sighed in his heart, not knowing when Li Jinyan would be able to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors.

Li Jinyan only felt that the atmosphere around him was weird. finally got to the end of the palace banquet, and it was past the end of the day. After the banquet was dispersed, General Liu greeted the ministers, and delayed for a few days before leaving.

On the way out of the palace, Li Jinyan suddenly found that King Ning was also among them, and he couldn't help but feel surprised.

General Liu blushed on the side, and the prince was too obvious, right? It's almost time to write on the door of my head.

He knew that Li Jinyan wanted to see his daughter-in-law, so he hurriedly pulled King Ning and said to Li Jinyan: "It's not early, you go back quickly!" ”

Li Jinyan hurriedly said goodbye, turned around and ran towards the outside of the palace.

A trace of chagrin flashed on King Ning's face, but because the princess was also by his side, he was not good at attacking.

"Lord, let's talk about it another day, it's not early today, wait for the old man to rest for a few days and then ask you for two drinks!"

General Liu didn't release anyone until he arrived at the gate of the palace, and when King Ning saw it, there was no shadow of Li Jinyan outside, so he had to give up.

It is said that as soon as Li Jinyan left the palace gate, he saw a carriage parked not far away, with two small lanterns hanging on the carriage, and by the faint light, Xia Sihan's side face was revealed.

Li Jinyan's heart tightened, and he hurriedly ran over.

Xiao Jiu turned his head when he heard the voice, and was pleasantly surprised to find that he had arrived.

"Childe!"

Xia Sihan turned around, and before he could see clearly, he was tightly hugged in his arms. Smelling the smell of wine on his body, Xia Sihan's heart twitched fiercely, and then moistened his eyes.

"Sihan, I'm back." His voice was a little hoarse, and Xia Sihan just hugged him tightly.

At this time, Li Mu's voice came from the carriage: "Jin Yan? ”

Xia Sihan reacted suddenly, came out of his arms, wiped his tears and said with a smile: "Mother, it's Jinyan!" ”

"Jinyan! Come on! Mother Li lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw clearly that it was Li Jinyan through the lantern, and immediately cried with joy.

Xia Sihan motioned for Xiao Jiu to get in the car and go back, and the family was finally reunited.

There was a choked choking of Mother Li from the carriage, and Xia Sihan and Li Jinyan comforted her. Until he arrived at the door of the house, Li Jinyan looked at the door with some astonishment, and didn't react for a while.

"Jinyan, this is our new home, I'll explain it to you later." Xia Sihan dragged him in, and a touch of guilt surged in Li Jinyan's heart. It is not easy for Sihan to be alone in the capital, and she has bought such a good house, you know how hard she worked when you think about it.

At that moment, Li Jinyan told them the news of his canonization, and Li's mother opened her mouth wide in shock. Xia Sihan was even more happy in his heart. In this way, Li Jinyan can be regarded as gaining a firm foothold in the capital. Hussar captain, is the fourth grade, Li Jinyan's title is real, and his status in the army cannot be underestimated. In this way, she was relieved.

When they arrived at the house, Li's mother was so excited that she finally calmed down and went back to the room to rest, Xia Sihan and Li Jinyan returned to the room late at night.

Looking at the wonderful woman he hadn't seen for a long time, Li Jinyan couldn't hold back anymore and hugged her tightly in his arms and kissed her......

After a beautiful night, when she got up in the morning, Xia Sihan heard a noise outside, Li Jinyan was gone, if it weren't for her sore body, she really thought she had a dream last night.

"The owner, someone has come to the palace!" Xiao Jiu ran in, Xia Sihan hurriedly put on his clothes, and a hint of urgency flashed on his face.

"Where's Jinyan?"

"Childe is meeting guests in the front hall, the owner should hurry up and freshen up!"

Xia Sihan sped up and changed into a pink dress, and then went out. When she arrived in the front hall, she saw that the courtyard was full of congratulatory gifts, and her heart was shocked! -It's just a four-grade official, there are so many rewards, if it is passed on, it will attract people with intentions to calculate without waiting for Jinyan to do something. The emperor also doesn't like to form parties for personal gain. Seeing the palace people standing in the front hall, Xia Sihan greeted him, with a smile on his face.

"My father-in-law has been waiting for a long time."

The old eunuch was stunned when he looked back and saw Xia Sihan, but he didn't expect that there were such beauties in this house. But seeing her dress, I guessed that it should be Li Jinyan's wife.

"Madame is serious, our family came to give gifts on the order of the emperor, yesterday the emperor personally awarded Li Xiaowei 10,000 taels of silver, and the queen also sent jewelry, and asked the adults and Mrs. to accept it."

When Li Jinyan's mother and son and Xia Sihan heard this, they hurriedly knelt down to thank them.

However, Xia Sihan also observed the eunuch's eyes when he looked at the congratulatory gifts in the courtyard, and she immediately smiled: "It's hard for my father-in-law to make a trip, Xiao Jiu!" ”

Xiao Jiu immediately took out a piece of silver and offered it, but the eunuch was not polite and accepted it happily.

"Our adults have always been diligent and thrifty, this time I was rewarded with the soldiers in the army, these gifts are also everyone's hard work, so the adults want to distribute these to the soldiers in the army, I don't know if my father-in-law can help?" As soon as Xia Sihan's words fell, Li Jinyan was amazed in his heart.

He was still embarrassed about how to deal with these congratulatory gifts, but Xia Sihan's words made a flash of pride in his eyes, or his daughter-in-law is smart!

That eunuch is also a personal essence, how could he not know what Xia Sihan meant? Immediately agreed.

Xia Sihan asked Xiao Jiu and Hu Bo to sort out the gift list, and after copying it, let the old eunuch take it back. In this way, these hot potatoes are solved. Li Jinyan gave her a thumbs up on the side.

"Sihan, you are still thoughtful."

Xia Sihan shook his head and said: "It's not that I'm thoughtful, I'm just afraid that someone with a heart will see that you have improved and want to calculate you, and I just take precautions, if it is not a friend of life and death in the future, we can't accept their gifts." ”

As a human being in two lives, Xia Sihan is well versed in these means. If it comes out of the mouth of the old eunuch today, tomorrow someone will say that he is greedy for merit and has formed a party for personal gain. In order to make Li Jinyan's career go smoothly, Xia Sihan must put an end to all possibilities.

Mother Li patted her chest on the side, although she was not greedy for money, she was indifferent to these congratulatory gifts. However, after hearing Xia Sihan's words, Mother Li only felt that the court was complicated, and she suddenly didn't want Li Jinyan to be an official.

It's just that the emperor's decree has been issued, and nothing can be changed.

Standing in the front hall, Xia Sihan asked Hu Bo to set off firecrackers to celebrate, and at the same time asked everyone to come over to recognize the master. Now that Li Jinyan is back, it's time for her to retreat behind the scenes.

"From today onwards, Sihan, I will protect you! I know all the grievances you have suffered, don't worry, I will help you clean up those people! ”

In the sound of crackling firecrackers, Li Jinyan put his arm around Xia Sihan's shoulder and promised that he would never let Sihan be despised again.
