Before he came to the capital, he had heard of Feng Yi's reputation, both good and bad, so he did not take Su Chenyu seriously. Usually, women who are too beautiful are not too smart. He did not expect that Su Chenyu not only has a stunning appearance, but also has a scheming mind that is unmatched by ordinary people.
Now it seems that Lian Yuzhao was seriously injured during his mission to Xixia, and Su Chenyu must have been behind it. He had heard about the marriage exchange at that time. Su Chenyu was so proud, how could she tolerate such humiliation from the Lian family?
To deal with a Lian Zhao, isn't it just a matter of catching him with bare hands?
Unfortunately, Su Chenyu acted so quickly and efficiently that she cut off all possibilities for Lian Zhao to tell the truth.
Su Chenyu has completely inherited the style of Emperor Jing of Wei in being ruthless and decisive.
Fan Heng's previous excitement diluted some of the joy that Concubine Yuan was pregnant with, which brought to Emperor Jing of Wei. Originally, Emperor Jing of Wei was planning to take advantage of the banquet the next day to promote Concubine Yuan's status.
But if these brothers and sisters are too complacent and arrogant in the future and cannot convince everyone, I cannot completely ignore the opinions of the ministers.
They still need to be warned so that they know how to restrain themselves.
With this in mind, Emperor Jing of Wei did not mention the matter of promoting Concubine Yuan again during the entire banquet.
Yuanzhi had been waiting for this for so long, but this matter was so lightly passed over. How could she be willing? It was not difficult to guess what Emperor Jing of Wei was thinking. It was because of what Su Chenyu said before that he changed his mind.
Thinking of this, there was a barely perceptible hatred hidden deep in Yuanzhi's eyes as she looked at Su Chenyu.
"Father, on this mission to Xixia, the people who worked the hardest along the way were the soldiers who protected our safety. I heard that Lord Tan Yanxi has been rewarded. I wonder how you plan to reward Generals Li Mucheng and Li Muyuan?"
At the end of the banquet, Su Chenyu brought up this matter.
Emperor Jing of Wei looked at Su Chenyu with a scrutinizing look in his eyes, and said in a lukewarm tone: "Then how do you think Fengyi should reward you?"
Emperor Jing of Wei did not accidentally overlook Li Mucheng and Li Muyuan, but the Li family, as they are now, already holds great power. If he were to reward them again, would he have to make room for the Li family?
Su Chenyu thought for a moment and replied, "Father, how about you fulfill one wish for each of them?"
Emperor Jing of Wei hesitated. Baili Yanqing took over Su Chenyu's words and said, "Your Majesty, there are so many people watching in this palace. I don't think the two young generals Li will make any excessive demands."
This was what Emperor Jing of Wei wanted. The two men certainly wouldn't dare to ask for official positions in front of the whole palace. "Sir, I will grant each of them one request."
Hearing that Emperor Jing of Wei agreed to this, Fan Heng felt unhappy and wanted to stop it, but it was too late.
Emperor Jing of Wei looked at Li Mucheng and Li Muyuan and said, "If you want anything, just tell me."
Li Mucheng and Li Muyuan stood up and walked slowly to the center of the hall. They first saluted to Emperor Jing of Wei and kowtowed to thank him for his great grace.
"Li Mucheng, you speak first."
Li Mucheng's eyes seemed to lightly sweep over Xiang Lan. At this moment, Xiang Lan had a faint expectation in his heart. What kind of request would Li Mucheng make to Emperor Jing of Wei?
