Chapter 143: Canonization of Generals
The emperor was stunned, and King Ning, who was sitting opposite, was even more excited. Li Jinyan, this is his son!
The recital he handed over before said everything, and now that he saw him with his own eyes, King Ning was even more sure that this was Yun'er and his child.
"Li Jinyan, who else in your family has ever married a wife?"
The emperor glanced meaningfully in Murong Xue's direction, and King Ning was startled, this can't be done!
Li Jinyan knelt on one knee on the ground and replied generously: "Your Majesty, there is a mother and a newlywed wife in the minister's family, and the relationship is very good. ”
His words made the emperor happy, this child, he was afraid that he would marry him.
"Liu Qing, it's really interesting to look at this kid, hahaha!"
The emperor laughed out loud, General Liu glanced at Li Jinyan, and said with a smile: "He, he went to the battlefield not long after he got married, but this kid is bold and careful and resourceful, and he took off the head of the enemy general this time." ”
"What a good general!"
The emperor looked at Li Jinyan and then at King Ning, and deliberately asked, "Brother Huang, what do you think of this child?" How am I going to reward it? ”
Suddenly pulled King Ning in, King Ning pondered for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, you will be rewarded for meritorious deeds." Although he has made military achievements, he is still young in the end, and the march and battle are not embroidered at home, and a success does not mean anything. In the future, it needs to be honed, and the meaning is done. ”
His words surprised General Liu very much, and this tone did not seem to be talking about a rising star, but like talking about his own child. He looked at King Ning, saw that King Ning's gaze was fixed on Li Jinyan, and then looked at Li Jinyan's side face, and General Liu's brain buzzed!
Ay! My eyes are so old and dizzy! This, these two people are so similar, and the emperor deliberately asked King Ning's opinion, which ......
General Liu immediately arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, what King Ning said is extremely true. This battle also relied on the concerted efforts of the whole army, and Jin Yan should also be tempered a lot. ”
The words of several people made several ministers around them puzzled, and Li Jinyan didn't know what it meant. Now he just wants to quickly receive the credit and go back to reunite with his family, and he doesn't know what happened to Sihan and them.
The emperor smiled, waved his big hand and said: "Li Jinyan, I will reward you with 10,000 taels of silver and make you a ...... Hussar lieutenant, is the fourth grade, how? ”
"Thank you, Emperor Longen."
Li Jinyan thanked the emperor, and General Liu breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, this position is not too high, but it is not low.
"Liu Qing listens to the order, today you are the general who protects the country, you are a good product, you will be given a yellow coat, a thousand taels of gold, and the soldiers under your command will be rewarded for their meritorious deeds!"
"Minister, thank you, long live my emperor, long live long live!"
As soon as General Liu's words fell, the ministers all stood up and shouted in unison. Li Jinyan knelt on the ground, shocked by this scene. I didn't expect that I could be named a fourth-grade official just after I came back, so Sihan didn't have to work so hard.
Li Jinyan got up with the ministers and returned to his position, and suddenly noticed two eyes coming.
One is Lord Ning's, although I heard Sihan say that he had conjectures about King Ning before, but it has never been confirmed. Now that he has seen King Ning, he is just toasting and celebrating.
The corners of King Ning's mouth rose, with a loving expression, and Princess Ning beside him couldn't help but clench her fists. The slut from that slut has become a hussar captain! In this way, wouldn't Sun Yun be even more proud? No wonder he was reluctant to return to the palace, so that the prince felt guilty and pity for her. Now that she has been rewarded, in time, their mother and son will climb on top of her!
Princess Ning was unhappy in her heart, and bowed her head slightly to hide the cruelty in her eyes.
Li Jinyan squinted to meet another gaze, the man was wearing a golden palace dress, sitting next to the queen, with a noble temperament.
He couldn't help but ask softly, "General, who is that person?" ”
General Liu looked in the direction of the eldest princess and said in a low voice: "That's the younger sister of the saint, the eldest princess Xiuning, don't you want to provoke her." ”
For some reason, Li Jinyan only felt that the eldest princess looked at him very unfriendly. He nodded, ignoring these high-ranking nobles. In his heart, these people are not as noble as his daughter-in-law.
He looked at the delicate pastries in front of him, and thought of Xia Sihan's smiling face, and suddenly felt good. It's good to be able to see Sihan when the palace banquet is over.
Li Jinyan couldn't help but smile on his face, and Murong Xue was stunned when he saw it. There are so many people in the palace today, she snuggles up to her mother, and on her right hand is the eldest princess.
"Queen Mother, that Li Jinyan looks very good, I don't know what his wife looks like to be worthy of him."
It was the first time for Murong Xue to be so shy, the queen's eyes were glazed, she had heard the emperor mention Li Jinyan's identity, this person was just a lowly commoner, how could he be worthy of her princess?
"Xue'er, you have seen his wife, it is Xia Sihan of Sijin Clothing."
The eldest princess reminded her on the side, and when she saw Xia Sihan from the beginning, she turned out her bottom details. Now seeing that Murong Xue is interested in him, the eldest princess of Xiuning is unwilling.
Murong Xue's eyes widened, and when she thought of Xia Sihan's beautiful face, a touch of sourness appeared in her heart. Xia Sihan is beautiful and talented, but he is a good match for Li Jinyan. But I'm still a princess, how can I not meet such a man? Most of the companions in the palace are white-faced scholars, how can they compare to his might?
Knowing the daughter Mo Ruomu, the queen saw her thoughts at a glance, nodded her forehead and said: "Just look at it, this person is not your good match." It's getting late, you go back to the palace to rest, and the queen mother will look for you later. ”
Murong Xue still wanted to refute, but seeing the queen's serious and irrefutable look, she had to get up and leave.
The eldest princess thought that the queen looked down on Li Jinyan, but she didn't know his true identity.
At the moment, the sound of silk and bamboo was endless, and everyone sitting in the audience had their own thoughts. The court and the central government were not peaceful, the Guogong Mansion and the General's Mansion had always been at odds, and King Ning and the eldest princess stayed out of the matter. But now, with General Liu's return to the dynasty, everything has changed.
This Li Jinyan seems to have no background but was taken out and sealed alone, and King Ning's attitude is really unpredictable. People who are far away can't see Li Jinyan's face clearly, but Grandpa Guo can see it clearly. Seeing that his eyebrows were similar to King Ning, he had already guessed seven or eight points in his heart.
I heard that King Ning sent people to search for people before, but I don't know if this young man is the person he is looking for. If it is, then it's not good. He married Yanran to King Ning's mansion, but he was thinking that the son would inherit the position of King Ning in the future. But Li Jinyan, looking at the princess's face, is afraid that this is another romantic debt of King Ning, so the prince may not be able to inherit the title smoothly.
Grandpa Guo had a good calculation, but Li Jinyan didn't know it, he just felt that the eyes of this group of people were strange, and at the same time, that familiar feeling hit again.
