Chapter 748 Who Do You Think You Are?
"Mother manages the palace better than I do. I don't have to be afraid when I go out in the future. With Mother around, the palace won't be in chaos."
Mrs. Zhou said "no, no," but she couldn't help but straighten her back a little, with a look of pride on her face.
In comparison, she does know how to manage palace affairs better than her daughter-in-law.
Li Niang came in and greeted Jiang Lianzhu. It was just past breakfast time, and Li Niang knew that they had been traveling all night on the golden eagle and should not have eaten yet, so she brought Jiang Lianzhu a bowl of fragrant white fungus and lotus seed soup.
"Princess Fu'an, please make do with your meal for now. The imperial kitchen will be hosting a banquet at noon. I've specially prepared a few dishes that you and the Regent will enjoy..."
"Thank you very much."
This is a great joyous event.
At noon, Dabao will definitely host a banquet for all the ministers in the palace.
They also need to appear and explain the war situation at the front to all the court officials. The first celebration banquet will also be a celebration banquet that will make the people of the entire capital feel at ease, and there must be a formality.
After drinking the steaming hot soup, Jiang Lianzhu sighed, "Home is still the best!"
Outside, she and Liao Jiu slept in the open air, and most of the time, they ate steamed buns or compressed biscuits with the soldiers. At home, it was warm, with food, drink, and children, and it was comfortable.
After resting for more than an hour, Jiang Lianzhu got up and went to the imperial city with Liao Jiu to meet the common people in the capital.
Normally, a triumphal parade should be held for public display, but this will be done after the army enters the city.
They first met with the common people on the walls of the imperial city.
Liao Jiu's speaking skills have always been excellent, and the people cheered one after another.
Then I accompanied the ministers to the first celebratory banquet. After the meal, I had to check the work of various departments. I was as busy as a top. It was a fulfilling and peaceful day.
In the evening, it’s time for a family dinner.
Li Niang cooked it herself, and Jiang Lianzhu and her husband, their three children, Mrs. Zhou, and Zhou Gong and his son shamelessly came to eat for free.
During the family dinner, the focus was on the incident of Liao Jiu and his wife falling off the cliff, as well as the incident with Zhou Yuan.
This is what the family cares about most.
When talking about the danger he and Jiang Lianzhu encountered when they fell off the cliff, he was afraid that his family would worry, so he didn't say much.
Duke Zhou sighed, "All the blessings you have, young man, must have been given to you by our Lotus Pearl. You must treat your wife well in the future. Do you understand? Not only are you in the seventh realm now, but even if you reach the eighth or ninth realm in the future, you must not look down on your wife. Do you understand?"
Give him a shot of prevention first!
Many people, once they feel they are strong, will become arrogant, despise their original wives, or marry ten or eight more.
In their opinion, Jiang Lianzhu is only at the fifth level of martial arts, and they are afraid that Liao Jiu may have bad intentions.
Liao Jiu laughed and said, "I heard it! Grandpa, don't worry! I'm not that kind of person. Besides, my wife is much more capable than me."
Even though he was at the seventh level of martial arts, he was no match for Jiang Lianzhu.
Jiang Lianzhu is now at the level of a great wizard. She knows martial arts, medicine, and has technological weapons. If the two of them really fight, he can't be her opponent.
He should be worried, it is his wife who dislikes him.
His seventh realm was unstable, and was obtained through a shortcut from the outside world. Silangjun had said that if he didn't find a way to stabilize it, he would most likely go astray in the future.
Once he gets obsessed, he's basically finished.
When Liao Jiu said, "My wife is much better than me," everyone thought he was joking and was praising Jiang Lianzhu, so no one took him seriously.
They all laughed and said, “That’s good!”
Only Nanbao believed it and echoed her father, "Yes, my mother is the best!"
"Yes, yes...your mother is the best."
Amidst the laughter, Prime Minister Zhou suddenly looked worried and asked, "Wuyang, our Zhou Yuan, a kid with no experience, can he manage Shangrao City well? Shangrao City is so big, and he's so young. Aren't we treating him too well?"
Liao Jiu smiled and said, "Don't worry, uncle. Zhou Yuan can do it. He is quite confident. Shangrao City will be easy to take over. He managed it well before and it is not a mess. Erlang Jun is also very optimistic about Zhou Yuan. Zhou Yuan has experienced several battles, big and small, and killed many enemies with his own hands. He is amazing."
Zhou Gong's mouth almost stretched to his ears when he heard this.
"Listen! Our Zhou Yuan is quite good. He actually dares to go into battle and kill the enemy. It's good to keep him in Shangrao City to help Erlangjun. It's a good experience. Shangrao City has no shortage of money or people. No matter how stupid he is, he won't mess up. Don't think too much. The world will be ruled by them from now on. His cousin and cousin-in-law think highly of him. This is his blessing."
Prime Minister Zhou stopped talking.
He had to go home and summon his advisers to discuss matters overnight, find a few reliable ones, and send them to Shangrao City. Zhou Yuan was his own son, and since he had taken over Shangrao City, he couldn't really let him mess it up. If he messed it up, it would bring shame to the Zhou family, and he would have no place to save his old face.
After talking about Zhou Yuan.
Jiang Lianzhu did not tell the Zhou family that Zhou Yuan wanted to marry the second princess. Zhou Yuan told her that she had to get the second princess's consent before telling anyone else.
She didn't mention it.
However, she kindly reminded him, "Zhou Yuan is currently working in Shangrao City, and it's unknown when he'll be able to return to Beijing. You don't have to rush into arranging his marriage..."
Jiang Lianzhu was mainly afraid that the Zhou family would arrange a marriage for him while Zhou Yuan was away.
You know, Zhou Yuan made great contributions in this triumphant return. By then, everyone in the capital will definitely know about it, and it is inevitable that someone will come to propose marriage to him.
We have to take some precautions first.
Unexpectedly, when Prime Minister Zhou heard from Duke Zhou and his son that the royal family was going to arrange a marriage for Zhou Yuan, his face froze.
Subconsciously, I wanted to object.
Fortunately, Duke Zhou glared at him in time and said, "Don't worry, our Zhou Yuan is still young. His cousins didn't get married until they were over 20. Zhou Yuan still has many years to go. First, establish a career and then start a family. There's no need to rush!"
Prime Minister Zhou finally reacted, "That's right, no rush."
Even if the royal family arranged the marriage, Liao Jiu would not harm Zhou Yuan with him around. The woman must be suitable for the Zhou family, so there was no need for him to make a fuss.
So, Zhou Yuan's marriage has been settled.
It also saves them from worrying.
After dinner, Liao Jiu escorted the Zhou family out of the palace.
Duke Zhou and his son, and Madam Zhou...
Before they came back, Madam Zhou had been living in Fengyi Palace. Now that they are back, Madam Zhou can go back home and live with peace of mind.
When I arrived at the palace gate, I heard noisy sounds.
"Let me into the palace. I am the upright Marquis of Qingning. My son and daughter-in-law are the left and right regents of Da'an State, and my grandson is the emperor. Who do you think you are? How dare you stop me from entering the palace? There must be a family dinner tonight, and I have to see my son..."
When they looked over, they saw Lord Liao arguing with the guards at the palace gate.
