Chapter 257: Farewell
Su Chenyu's words were righteous, but Emperor Jing of Wei could hear the mockery in them. He wanted to say something but couldn't. In the end, he could only say, "You know it."
Su Chenyu sat down on the chair next to him and said, "Your Majesty, let's get back to the point. I can go, but you can't let me worry about the birthday gift, right?"
Emperor Wei Jing's expression froze. How did Su Chenyu know what he was thinking?
When Su Chenyu got married, she took away a lot of her belongings, and Emperor Wei Jing was still interested in those things. After all, the national treasury was not well-off, and if Su Chenyu was not allowed to take out the things, he could only use his own private treasury, and Emperor Wei Jing was of course reluctant to do so.
But now Su Chenyu blocked his way out with just one sentence. She was already in trouble, so he couldn't ask her to give a gift, right?
"I'm not asking you to give them all. You have a lot of stuff, just pick one..."
Before Emperor Jing of Wei could finish his words, Su Chenyu interrupted him directly: "Your Majesty, aren't all the things in the world here with you? Could it be that you, as the Son of Heaven, are still thinking about your daughter's things?"
Emperor Jing of Wei's face turned pale and blue: "Okay, you don't need to worry about the birthday gift, I will prepare it."
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid there are many dangers in Xixia. I want to personally select the people to accompany me."
Emperor Jing of Wei did not agree immediately, but asked: "Who do you want to choose?"
"Yan Qing will naturally come with me, as well as the two cousins from the Li family. I hope they will be responsible for the protection this time."
The request made by Su Chenyu was within the expectations of Emperor Jing of Wei: "Since you trust the people of the Li family, then let them go. But I plan to let Lian Yuzhao go with you. One more person means more strength."
Emperor Jing of Wei was sending someone to monitor Su Chenyu. Su Chenyu just said calmly, "Your Majesty can make the decision on this matter. But we are going to Xixia now. We don't know what we will encounter along the way. If something happens on the way to Lianzhao, I can't do anything about it."
"Don't worry, you don't have to be responsible for Lian Zhao's safety. He can take care of himself."
Hearing what Emperor Wei Jing said, Su Chenyu stood up and bowed: "If there is nothing else, I will take my leave first."
"You should leave now."
After Su Chenyu left, Emperor Jing of Wei couldn't help feeling happy. The Western Xia had always regarded the Li family as a thorn in their side. Now that Li Mucheng and Li Mu were far away, how could they not fail in Western Xia?
It is enough for the glory of the Li family to continue to this generation of Li Qian!
Thinking of this, Emperor Jing of Wei was no longer so sad about the birthday gifts he was about to give out. He readily opened his private warehouse and asked Cai Quan and his men to move a lot of things out of it, compiling a total of ten loads of birthday gifts, which just corresponded to the Xixia King's tenth birthday.
After leaving the palace, Su Chenyu asked Aunt Xu to start packing her things in preparation to leave Beijing.
Baili Yanqing asked, "Are we leaving so early?"
Su Chenyu nodded: "This Xixia will definitely pass by the border. Ning County is close to the border, so we can go there to pay respect to our ancestors. Isn't this the wish of the old guardian? As the younger generation, we can do more."
Baili Yanqing didn't expect that Su Chenyu still remembered this matter: "Well, let's leave early then."
With Su Chenyu's consent, Emperor Jing of Wei acted quickly and directly issued an imperial decree to send the Li family away. Li Mucheng and Li Muyuan felt relieved when they knew they could go with them.
