Three months later, Li Xiao, who had won the battle, led his troops back to Beijing.

Li Xiao was brave and ruthless in the suppression of bandits in Taiyuan County, which made him famous. It also made him quickly gain prestige in the Tiger Battalion.

Feng Yuan, Gao Wang and other generals came to greet him on the emperor's orders, and their attitude towards Li Xiao was less contemptuous and more respectful.

This is the respect gained with blood and military exploits, and only in this way can we truly gain a foothold among the military generals in the capital.

At this moment, Li Xiao was full of gratitude to the new emperor in his heart. It was Xu Jing's strong advocacy that allowed him to lead the troops to the expedition and make great achievements. Otherwise, with his humble qualifications, a hairy boy who has just arrived, where did he win Feng Yuan, Gao Wang and others?

The generals who returned from great victories have infinite scenery and glory. Li Xiao wore armor, rode into the city on a tall horse, entered the palace amid the welcome and cheers of the people, and entered the Jinluan Hall to meet him.

"The last general, Li Xiao, lived up to the emperor's high expectations, exterminated the bandits in Taiyuan County, and returned to Beijing today to meet him." Li Xiao didn't remove his armor, he could neither kneel nor bend down, he just stood up straight and clenched his fists, his voice was high-pitched and loud, echoing inside and outside the Jinluan Hall for a long time.

The Son of Heaven, who was sitting on the dragon chair, did not hide his joy at all, got up and walked over, and patted Li Xiao on the shoulder in the eyes of all the generals and generals: "General Li is really good! I didn't misread you!"

Xu Jing's strength has been amazing since he was a child, and he usually collects five points of strength, but he is excited at this moment, and he doesn't control his strength much.

Li Xiao only felt that his shoulder was pressed by a boulder a few times, and he was almost slapped down on the spot. Fortunately, he was wearing hard armor and barely held on, and others couldn't see his legs trembling slightly in the armor: "Thank you for the emperor's praise!"

Xu Jing realized that something was wrong at this time, and quickly changed the shot to catch it, and quietly stabilized his figure for Li Xiao. also saved Li Xiao from being embarrassed.

The two monarchs and ministers glanced at each other, and they were each happy in their hearts.

The courtiers, of course, didn't know what was going on. In their eyes, the emperor loves Li Xiao very much. It's just a matter of patting the shoulder, and now he is still holding Li Xiao's shoulder intimately.

That's too much of a favor!

The courtiers were secretly envious. At the celebration banquet afterwards, take turns to toast and persuade toasts. Li Xiao is refreshing, not so many twists and turns. Someone came to toast and it was done immediately.

The toasters are endless. Before the time of the incense, Li Xiao got drunk and fell on the table with a thud.

Ministers: "......"

Xu Jing: "......"

Looking at Li Xiao's heroism that he didn't refuse, I thought he was drinking so much! It turns out that it is not Erer, and the main hit is a silly boldness.

Xu Jing coughed and ordered Xu Shiyi and Xu Qiliu to help Li Xiao go to the apse to rest. He smiled at the ministers again: "It doesn't hurt if General Li is drunk, Zhong Aiqing continues to drink, and he will have fun today."

The ministers saw that Li Xiao was half-helped and half-carried out like a dead pig, and their hearts calmed down a lot. One by one, they happily pushed the cups and changed the lamps.

More than half a year has passed since the palace change, and it has been a few months since Xu Jing officially ascended the throne.

The new emperor did not understand government affairs, but he was broad-minded and did not doubt the use of people, listened to admonitions, relied on civil servants in the political affairs of the country, and did not interfere in the drills of the military camps. Food and clothing were simple, and the money saved in the Ministry of Internal Affairs was continuously invested in the army.

The old ministers who served the first emperor and the first emperor were secretly moved to tears.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of that year was indeed like a torch and chose the most suitable heir for the Great Jin.

If you insist on finding some fault with the emperor, you are too fond of praising and boasting about the queen's mother...... The queen is indeed smart and virtuous, but she doesn't have to talk about it all day! They often follow the hype, and the cheekiness and discipline are almost gone.

The palace banquet is over, and Li Xiao hasn't woken up yet.

Xu Jing sent someone to guard Li Xiao and drove to the Jiaofang Hall by himself.

The Son of Heaven has his own place to live. According to the practice in the palace, on the fifteenth day of the first month, he went to the Jiaofang Palace to stay overnight, and the rest of the time, the Son of Heaven could be free to visit the harem beauties. When Emperor Yongming was still alive, he liked to summon beauties into the Fuyou Hall and completely indulge in pleasure.

When I arrived at Xu Jing, there was only Queen Zhao in the harem. He went to court in the Jinluan Hall during the day, and in the afternoon and evening in the Fuyou Hall to review and deal with political affairs

When it's time to rest, raise your feet and go back to the Jiaofang Palace.

It is the freedom of the Son of Heaven to sleep where he wants. Moreover, not long after the Son of Heaven ascended the throne, he was still guarding filial piety for the first emperor and the late crown prince, and no matter how long-sighted the courtiers were, they would not suggest opening a harem Na'vi at this time. Therefore, Xu Jing's ears are pure, and he happily returns to the Jiaofang Hall every night to accompany his wife and children.

The nine-month-old little fruit and little flower can already climb. Zhao Xiyan deliberately spread a thick blanket in the bedroom. Two children crawl happily around on the blankets.

Zhao Xiyan accompanied a pair of children with a smile: "Little fruit and little flower, come here, my mother is here."

The two children twisted their fat little buttocks, and the two little fat legs moved and crawled over neatly, competing to throw themselves into their mother's arms.

Xiao Guo'er took the first step, and her little hand wrapped her arms around Zhao Xiyan's neck. Xiaohua'er took a step slower, and was separated by Xiaoguo'er's fat buttocks, so anxious that she babbled and yelled, and cried with a pout.

Xu Jing happened to be back, came over quickly, scooped up his daughter with a big hand, and scooped his daughter into his arms: "Little flower, don't cry, Dad is here."

Xiaohua'er sobbed a few times, leaned her head on her father's chest, and her aggrieved little appearance made people laugh and feel distressed.

In order to make her daughter happy, Xu Jing threw her high, reached out to catch it, and continued to throw it again. Xiao Hua'er really stopped crying, dancing in mid-air, giggling before the tears in her eyes dried.

Xiao Guo'er was anxious, grabbed her mother's arm and stood up, babbling at her father.

Xu Jing grinned: "Don't worry, it'll be your turn later."

Where can a nine-month-old child understand. Even if you understand, you don't have the patience to wait. Xiaoguo'er babbled a few times, and when she saw that her father ignored her, she cried with a pout.

Zhao Xiyan was angry and funny, and hated Xu Jing: "The child originally crawled well, but you want to play such a dangerous one." Be careful, don't hurt the kids."

Xu Jing's eyes kept staring at her daughter, and she smiled casually, "Don't worry, I know it in my heart."

Xiaoguo'er was so noisy that Xu Jing had to take Xiaohua'er over and throw it away after changing his son.

Xiaohua'er hasn't had enough fun yet, where is she willing to let it, she will make trouble in Zhao Xiyan's arms. Zhao Xiyan reached out and slapped her little buttocks, glaring at her warningly: "Don't mess around."

The child is still young and can't even speak, but he already knows who is the real boss in the family. As soon as Zhao Xiyan stiffened her face, Xiaohua'er didn't dare to make trouble, and obediently lay in her mother's arms.

Xu Jing took his son to play for a while, then hugged Xiaoguo'er over and let the brother and sister continue to crawl and play in one place.

Zhao Xiyan smelled the smell of wine on Xu Jing's body, and glanced at him with a smile: "Full of wine, go take a bath and change clothes."
