Chapter 57: Lin Xi's decision

As soon as they entered Yonghua Palace, Wang Jibao and Lin Xi first saluted Queen Qin.

Before they finished the ceremony, the two were supported by Queen Qin.

Queen Qin held Wang Xibao with one hand and Lin Xi with the other, and said distressedly: "Don't be polite, you two are still hurt." ”

After that, he grabbed Wang Jibao's left hand and didn't let go. Let go of Lin Xi's hand, pointed to the seat next to him and said, "Brother Xi'er sit." ”

After that, he took Wang Xibao's hand and walked to the high platform, and asked with concern as he walked: "Does your hand still hurt?" Poor man, this time he really suffered a great sin. Don't worry, your cousin will definitely be angry for you. ”

After sitting on the phoenix chair, Queen Qin pulled Wang Jibao into her arms and kissed her. When I saw Wang Jibao's right hand wrapped in the shape of a steamed bun, I thought of Xia Yixuan. Empress Qin frowned and said again: "Why is it that the children are so ruthless." ”

Wang Jibao smiled sweetly at Queen Qin and said, "Thank you for the Queen's cousin's concern, Sister Bao's right hand doesn't hurt much now." I knew that the queen's cousin would definitely be angry for Baomei. But I'm here today for something important. ”

The child who can scream has milk to drink. Wang Jibao is still young, and there are some things she can't do by herself, which doesn't mean that she won't seek help from others. She also never felt shameful in seeking foreign help. So he told Queen Qin what he had just overheard in the imperial garden, as well as what he had met Su Yanxia.

In the end, he didn't forget to pull the sleeve of Empress Qin's red phoenix robe with his uninjured left hand, "The queen's cousin, those women are too angry." Especially the one named Lu Caixia, you must not be cheap for her. ”

Originally, she wanted Empress Dowager Jiang to take action and give Lu Caiyun a marriage who said bad things about her. Didn't Lu Caixia want to marry the fourth prince and be the fourth princess? I just didn't let her get her wish.

But after meeting Su Yanxia, Wang Jibao came up with a better way to punish Lu Caixia.

Anyway, whether it is the crown prince or the fourth prince, they are quite good to Wang Jibao. And listening to her mother, Su Yanxia is very likely to become the prince's concubine. Therefore, when Wang Jibao encountered this matter, he immediately thought of Empress Qin.

When the crown prince got married, the current saint had not yet ascended the throne, and Emperor Yongsheng was still not a very favored prince at that time. Therefore, the crown princess's background is not high, she is only the daughter of the prefect of Guangyuan.

The crown princess's father was only crowned Cheng Enbo after the current saint ascended the throne.

Although the Dayong Dynasty attaches more importance to the concubine, the status of the crown prince is now stable. But who can say for sure what the future holds?

As a prince who has the capital to ascend to that position, everyone wants to add weight to their own aspects. And the prince's weight in this regard is simply weak.

For the sake of balance between several princes, Emperor Yongsheng will choose a side concubine with a strong background for the crown prince anyway to strengthen the power of the prince's side.

And Su Yanxia is an excellent candidate.

First, Su Yanxia's father held nearly one-fifth of Dayong's military power. Second, the prince was not born with a son-in-law, and if Su Yanxia entered the East Palace, the royal family would naturally attach importance to Su Yanxia. If he gives birth to a son, not only will his position be secure, but he may also have a greater transformation in the future.

In addition, the Pingnan Hou Mansion has declined in recent years, and even if there is a Su Zihuai, it has not been able to make their Hou Mansion go further. If Su Yanxia enters the East Palace, it will be a marriage with the royal family. Don't say that the crown prince will ascend the throne in the future, even now the saint will look up to the Pingnan Hou Mansion. In that way, the Pingnan Hou Mansion will inevitably have more opportunities to climb up, and it is possible to become a first-class family.

Therefore, no matter how you look at it, this marriage is very beneficial for both parties.

I'm afraid that the emperor will marry Su Yanxia to the four princes, which will be a great threat to the prince's side.

Now some people obviously plan to rely on the jade pendant to make a fuss and make Su Yanxia lose the opportunity to be the crown prince or the fourth princess.

Its intentions can be imagined.

Empress Qin felt that such a person was a little clever, but the East Palace didn't need such a person to stir things up. For Donggong, stability is more important than anything else.

It is unknown whether Bao Mei came to her to complain whether it was Bao Mei's own intention or Su Yanxia's meaning, but this Su Yanxia had to be protected.

In addition, there are people who slander Baomei, a five-year-old child, which is simply condemnable.

After thinking about it, Queen Qin touched the top of Wang Xibao's head and said gently: "Sister Bao will go back to Yongci Palace to recuperate her injuries first, and don't go out to play anymore, so as not to aggravate the injuries on her hands." The person who bullied our precious sister, my cousin and aunt will be angry for you. Well, you go back first. ”

"Okay, the queen's cousin is the best for Baomei." After Wang Jibao finished speaking, she crooked herself in Queen Qin's arms again, then kissed Queen Qin's cheek, and said with a smile: "Queen's cousin, then I'll go first." Don't get tired either. ”

After Lin Xi bowed deeply to Empress Qin, he took Wang Xibao's left hand and left Yonghua Palace.

When he returned to Yongci Palace, Lin Xi was called away by King Xian.

King Xian and Lin Xi said that the two families had made an oral marriage contract under the witness of Emperor Yongsheng.

Wang Jibao has become Lin Xi's fiancΓ©e, and this matter is already proper.

Lin Xi's heart blossomed after hearing the news, and he froze in place a little stupidly.

Seeing that Lin Xi, who was usually a little adult, was so stupid, Xian Wang took the opportunity to pat Lin Xi on the back of the head and said, "Silly boy!" ”

It's really heart-stopping, I've been working for their two fathers and sons all these years.

If it was usual, Lin Xi would naturally not let the idle king pat his head, this time he was too happy, so he indulged the idle king once.

also respectfully thanked King Xian: "Thank you father-in-law for your help!" ”

Xia Yanhe pouted: "Come on." It's not like you wrote to your father to force me to do this. But don't forget to remind your father of the agreement he made with the king. ”

Lin Xi replied with great certainty: "If my father doesn't fulfill it, I will definitely fulfill it myself." ”

Xia Yanhe stretched his waist without any image: "You kid can be kind to Xiao Bao'er in the future." No matter how you say it this time, Xiao Baoer suffered. It may not be a blessing to marry you in the future. ”

After listening to Xia Yanhe's words, Lin Xi said firmly: "I promise to be wholeheartedly devoted to Baomei in the future and never change my mind." I will also do my best to give Baomei the best of everything. I want everyone to know that it is the best choice for Baomei to marry me. ”

Looking at such a serious Lin Xi, Xia Yanhe was shocked. On the surface, this is to say that he is good for the little girl of the Wang family, but it faintly reveals his ambition.

He had always known that Lin Xi was not as simple as other people's eight-year-old children, and now it seemed that this kid had thought and done more than he knew.

So he put away his carelessness and said with a straight face: "Just remember it." After all, in the future, Baomei will have no family to rely on there, she can only rely on you. If there is anything that needs the help of the stepfather in the future, although it is bluntly stated, the stepfather must be duty-bound. After all, you are a child raised by this king, and your father-in-law also hopes that you will have a better future. ”

After that, he returned to the way he was just now, and said jokingly: "If you have any determination and vows, let's confess to your future Yue family." Speaking of this, King Xian remembered what he had won for Lin Xi, to please the welfare of the Marquis of Heshun.

"By the way, your father-in-law will be your master in the future, and you must learn from him in the future. He seems to be mediocre on the surface, but in fact he is a man of great talent. It is not difficult to see from the fact that he taught Xiao Baoer so well. ”

If you worship your future father-in-law as a teacher, will you have more opportunities to cultivate feelings with your sister in the future? That's what he wants.

So Lin Xi smiled at the corner of his mouth and said, "Xi understands." Thank you, Father-in-law! ”

Xia Yanhe did not forget to explain a few words as a person who came over: "Some things are better to explain clearly to Xiao Bao'er, don't look at Xiao Bao'er is only five years old, she sometimes understands more than others." Look at the Bao Gong bucket and the four treasures of the study in Bao Mo Xuan. You," Speaking of this, Xia Yanhe opened the folding fan in his hand and shook his head, "Tsk, it's so discerning." ”

"I also have to thank my father-in-law for his help."

"Forget it, don't shoot the king's ass. You choose the people. By the way, tonight, the position of your son will be given. In this way, in Yongguo, you can be regarded as the right one with Xiao Bao'er in terms of identity. In addition, it is also convenient for you to act in our Yongguo. ”

Lin Xi gave a deep salute and said, "Xi knows." Besides, thanks is to see the father-in-law. However, the father-in-law has been kind to Xi over the years, and Xi will naturally not forget it. If the stepfather needs Xi in the future, as long as it does not go against the interests of the country, Xi will do his best. ”

Xia Yanhe shook his head and said helplessly: "Hey! This king's kindness to you at the beginning is naturally because of interests. It's just that after so many years, can you have no feelings? It's best to just hope that something doesn't happen in the future that none of us want to see. ”

The general trend of the world, divided for a long time, must be united, and long-term must be divided. Yongguo is not the only country in the entire continent. No one wants war. But as long as there is an ambitious emperor, who does not want to expand the territory and achieve hegemony.

Recently, Dingguo has been in harmony across the country. It seems that Emperor Dingwu's ambition is really not small.

Forget it, even if those things happen, it will be a few years or even more than ten years, and it is too early to worry.

For now, it's up to the little guy to turn the tide of the bad form.

"Brother Xi, don't forget to write to your father often. Otherwise, after a long time, maybe one day he will completely give up on your own son. When King Xian thought of Lin Xi's father, he really felt that this person's mind was too unpredictable.

I don't know what kind of plan he has for Lin Xi, which makes Lin Xi's identity so embarrassing.

"I will, father-in-law." Lin Xi is also becoming more and more incomprehensible to his own father.

said that he gave up himself completely, but entrusted him to the care of his stepfather. In addition, he was given a lot of power and financial support.

said that he had some special thoughts, but he was sent to Yongguo, and he was given such an embarrassing identity in his country.

His forced growth is all due to his treacherous father.
