Chapter 200 The Two Kings Support Each Other

Gongqing had something to ask Junlin, so he had to treat her well with delicious food and drinks in the days ahead. Even if she sent him to the kitchen to pick up the pots and spatulas to cook a meal, Gongqing had to accept it with a smile.

The people from the kitchen were sent away by him with a look of panic. They also saw Jun Lin guessing the identity of this person with a gossipy eye. He must be an important person, otherwise why did he pinch his own Majesty's arm in annoyance, while his Majesty still worked hard to clean his hands and cut vegetables without complaint.

"How long have you not cooked?"

She tapped the table with her bent index finger, supported her chin with one hand, and looked at the busy figures of the officials with boredom.

"Didn't I cook in your Jingguo Imperial City last time?"

Gongqing was born a nobleman, his fingers were untouched by women, he seldom held a sword, he always sat around studying with a book in his arms, his fingers were slender and well-proportioned, like a piece of art, but this man had mastered the cooking skills, he condescended to feed Guigu's two hungry mouths.

Not only the one who has money is a father, but also the one who can feed you is a father.

But Jun Lin and Wen Suili would usually just wipe their lips after eating and then turn their faces away from them.

Therefore, the ministers understood a truth: if you want to capture a man's heart, you have to capture his stomach.

Only when she was feeding Jun Lin did she become particularly talkative.

"Do you really think I'm a chef and I cook for everyone?"

The sound of the kitchen knife hitting the chopping board was neat and crisp, but it was nothing like the slightly raised ending tone that made people's hearts itch.

Jun Lin stared at the man's soft profile. His long eyelashes were like beautiful butterfly wings half covering his face. He was tall and slender, and looked noble and elegant.

The meat strips he cuts are neatly shredded, like a gentle and virtuous husband cooking for his wife...

etc!

She suddenly stroked her chin and thought, what on earth was this feeling of being a married woman that was blowing over her face from her senior brother?

The official was stunned for not getting a response for a long time, and had a bad feeling in his heart. He turned around and saw her with an old-fashioned look on her face, thinking about the philosophy of life.

Jun Lin: "Senior brother, tell me, are you doing something..."

What is the potential of a husband?

Gongqing interrupted her with a blank expression: "Put away your dangerous thoughts."

"It's not dangerous, I haven't even finished what I'm saying..."

"Can I expect you to finish? Have you forgotten how many times you humiliated me when you were a child?"

Jun Lin: “…”

You actually used a word that is so humiliating that it would instantly turn me into a bad person?

Gong Qing turned around to fry the shredded pork in oil. A "bang" brought Jun Lin back to her senses. She recounted everything in detail: "You basically took care of all the housework in Guigu, so I praised you at the time. Whoever marries you is blessed by eight lifetimes of cultivation. How can it be called humiliating you?"

Gong Qing's eyelids twitched: "Why, you want me to get married?"

This was an ancient feudal society where men were superior to women, and for a man to get married was indeed a great stimulus to the self-esteem of a duke or minister, who was still a bit arrogant in his nature.

Jun Lin was stunned. Then it was not her fault. She was Emperor Jing. In her life, she only had the concept of marrying but not the concept of marrying. In her subconscious, she must want the man to marry her!

She kindly comforted him, "No, no, I will never marry in my lifetime."

The minister asked, "Are you willing to marry?"

Jun Lin immediately retorted: "How is that possible? I am the ruler of a country and I can only marry. When life settles down, I will have to choose a concubine. You think there must be some talented young men in Jing country who want to marry me?"

Duke: “…”

You are the ruler of a country and you cannot marry, but I can?

He picked up the cherries on the porcelain plate and stuffed them into her mouth. He then tapped her head with his index finger, saying, half coldly and half mockingly, "Yeah, I'm afraid a bunch of people in Jingguo want to have an affair with you."

Jun Lin looked like he had seen through the world: "Men, they just don't like what they love. I understand."

You ignored me before, but now you can’t afford me.

That's right, now that Emperor Jing has power, influence and looks, he can just do it with the Broken Sleeve.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense and go wash your hands and eat."

Gongqing consciously changed the topic that made him uncomfortable, and served food to Junlin at the table without holding a grudge. He said, "According to investigation, most of the children who were donated to Southern Xinjiang are still alive. Now that Yue State has just changed its leader and the political situation is turbulent, I can't leave, so I would like to ask you to rescue them if you have the chance."

Jun Lin lowered his head and ate without saying a word.

"Once the task is accomplished, I will naturally announce your achievements to the people of Yue, and your reward will not be reduced by a cent."

Jun Lin suddenly put down his bowl and chopsticks and looked at him stubbornly, the atmosphere suddenly became serious: "I have always wanted to ask you, you became the King of Yue, and then what?"

Gongqing's face was calm, he lowered his eyelids and picked up a dish, his tone was steady and calm: "Then I will go and get it."

“Strive for every opportunity to enable the people to live and work in peace and contentment.”

"Heaven created the people, not for the sake of the king, but established the king for the sake of the people. Now that I have taken the throne of the King of Yue, I will naturally dedicate everything to the people."

In the past, the nobles had small hearts, only big enough to accommodate Jun Lin and Wen Suili. Now, the nobles have big hearts, big enough to accommodate tens of millions of people, and every corner is occupied by his subjects without leaving any space.

Once a person becomes a king, he must have corresponding awareness and shoulder the necessary responsibilities, and dukes and ministers are no exception.

Hearing his words, Jun Lin suddenly opened her mouth to reveal a faint smile. She sat upright, with her hands on her knees calmly and generously, and promised: "Okay."

Once Junlin accomplishes this, the two countries of Jing and Yue will be as close as sisters, with the two kings supporting each other and being so kind as to treat each other's people as their own. Even if the day comes when Junlin conquers Yue, I'm afraid the people of Yue will not be able to hate her.

If Emperor Jing had not secretly stopped it, the economy of Yue State would have been destroyed by Jin Ge and would never have recovered.

If Emperor Jing had not gone to southern Xinjiang to rescue them, the tragic deaths of the children of Yue State would have been heartbreaking.

Emperor Jing even established a certain prestige in the State of Yue, although this was not without the help of the ministers.

Seeing that she agreed, the official smiled slowly in a low voice.

"By the way, after the peace period ends, I will be the first to declare war on Southern Xinjiang. This is also what the people of Yue want."

Jun Lin smiled and said, "What a coincidence! I want to take Ze State with my troops."

"In your opinion, is there a chance that the five countries will become three countries in a year?"

Jun Lin smiled cheerfully: "The waters in Southern Xinjiang are very deep. I'm afraid you won't be able to conquer it all at once, Senior Brother."

The ministers sighed, "Yes, but we must whip the southern border and give an explanation to the people of Yue."
