Chapter 78 Ridiculous Banquet
To welcome the Empress Dowager back to the palace, Junlin brought some trusted ministers, including the Left Prime Minister, the Right Prime Minister and Yan Yu.
When the famine did not come, she threw him into the military camp to train and prepare the troops.
The local soldiers of Dajing did not show any dissatisfaction towards this powerful Manhuang who was appointed by the king himself. Firstly, the king's orders could not be disobeyed, and secondly, it was simple that the strong were respected.
Coupled with the complete outbreak of public opinion about Emperor Jing being framed by Southern Xinjiang, and the public execution of corrupt officials and treacherous ministers, Junlin's prestige in the country has once again reached a small climax, and the majority of people still support her.
The Empress Dowager turned her head to look at her grandson. He was elegant and dignified, but she had no idea what kind of person he was.
After all, Junlin had been learning skills outside since she was young, and when she returned to the palace, she did her own things, either staying with her uncle or spending little time with the Empress Dowager. She didn't even know what the other person's personality was like.
Not sure how strong she is?
How much prestige do you have now?
Her mind was up and down all the way.
During the years of Emperor Jing's tyranny, she had thought about returning to seize power, but was stopped in every possible way.
The power she controlled at that time was totally insufficient to compete with the opponent, as Bingwen was a man of great power.
Jun Lin was also thinking about what value he had that was worth Nanjiang's efforts to set up such a plan?
A group of people came into the palace and sat down. Music played and dancers danced seductively.
The workaholic stopped to enjoy herself now. She finally understood why the ancient emperors loved to listen to songs and watch dancers. Now, she would like it too. The scene was truly pleasing to the eyes.
The beauty has seductive eyes, her shoulders are bent, her waist is tilted, and her sleeves are gently swung. The classical charm is so attractive that people can't take their eyes off her.
When Manchuan saw that she was fascinated, he was extremely happy. He thought that she was interested in women, and there was hope for the Jing Kingdom to have an heir.
Many people were staring at her.
Minghe, jade.
There is also Xing Zhi, who is very romantic with his head supported by one hand and his collar open, and Jun Shen, who is as quiet and elegant as an orchid and holding a teacup.
"Hmm? Oh, by the way, Grandmother, there are two more concubines of my grandson that you haven't met yet. I'll send someone to call them now."
She clapped her hands, and the guards immediately understood and left.
Manchuan: “…”
I thought you had come to your senses, but it turns out you're still thinking about those two men of yours?
Mr. Man was very disappointed.
Man is old and unhappy.
Man Lao drank a cup of wine in sorrow for his misfortune.
The Empress Dowager froze and angrily said, "Why don't you change this bad habit quickly? Otherwise, how will others view our Jing Kingdom in the future?"
Jun Lin smiled and said, "Don't be angry, Grandmother. I can listen to you in anything, but not this. I won't be able to sleep at night without this man."
"You have really been spoiled by your uncle. How can you be an emperor if you are so dissolute?"
"Huh?"
She turned her eyes to the elegant man sitting below, tilted her head and said with a wicked expression: "Uncle, tell me, have you spoiled me?"
Jun Xian paused while drinking his tea, raised his eyelids and looked at her, his tone helpless and doting: "You, I spoiled you and I admit it."
Jun Lin chuckled, suppressed the dark light in his eyes and looked at the Empress Dowager again, but continued to say to Jun Xian: "So, little uncle thinks that I am unqualified to be the Emperor Jing because of my unruly behavior?"
The man sighed: "You are the king of Dajing, and you will always be."
The Empress Dowager's face froze, and she was extremely disgusted. She gave all her favor to the person in front of her.
Jun Lin comforted her, "Don't worry, Grandmother. I am Emperor Jing, and no one else dares to say anything."
Even though he knew she was acting, Manchuan was still very angry. Look at what she said, is it an injustice to you to take a woman as your concubine?
The Empress Dowager was surprised when she saw the right prime minister's heartbroken expression. Manchuan, who had always loved Junlin, was like this. It seemed that she was indeed unpopular in the court.
If he is so unrestrained, then he will have one more reason to seize power.
Xingzhi, who was standing below, smiled and said, "Then I wonder if Your Majesty is satisfied with my appearance?"
Jun Lin was speechless for a moment.
What are you, an outsider, doing here to interfere? Moreover, you have brought disgrace upon Taoism.
He is a Buddhist gentleman, but he has a rebellious nature.
She still pretended to raise her eyes, her sight sweeping over the man's eyebrows, his thin lips, and then down over his delicate collarbone and half of his fair and tight chest, then she nodded with satisfaction: "I am very satisfied, I wonder if Xingzhi is interested in entering the palace as a concubine?"
The young man, who was originally just teasing, never thought that she would actually raise her eyes and look at him. He was used to many storms and waves, so he was calm and composed. However, when he was looked at by her, his skin felt like it was burning, and he even wanted to close his collar.
The young man's Adam's apple slid, and he sat up straight involuntarily, his tone still frivolous: "Common people..."
After much thought, I decided to give up.
Before he finished speaking, someone shouted, "I don't want to."
Everyone: "..."
That was really a tempting sight. Jin Ge even put on some light makeup, put her hands in her sleeves and walked to the center of the hall leisurely, smiling and saying, "Isn't it enough for my husband to have us?"
Following behind was Ye Du, a well-mannered man.
Jun Lin felt relieved. This little troublemaker could usually get her out of trouble. She waved her hand happily, "That's enough. Come and pay your respects to the Empress Dowager."
The Empress Dowager: “…”
After all, you are the crown prince of Yue State, a prosperous country. Are you too bold?
Is there really something wrong with this person's brain? She doesn't even look unhappy about being a male concubine.
Just as she was thinking about this, Jin Ge had already arrived in front of her. As usual, she covered her lips with her sleeves, revealing only her charming eyes. "Look, you didn't even tell me that the Empress Dowager was coming back. Otherwise, I would have bought you a few cities as a gift."
The Empress Dowager: “…”
Jun Lin: “???”
Do you think the city is a building block that you can buy whenever you want?
The Empress Dowager's mouth twitched and her eyelids twitched, but she didn't want to speak.
After holding it in for a long time, he said, "I have a heart."
He was like a favored peacock in the limelight, sitting in the arms of the king and showing off his status without restraint.
Imperial Noble Consort, the first in Jing Kingdom, did you see that? I spent one hundred thousand taels of gold and today I can finally show off my power.
Jun Lin put one hand on his waist and pinched it hard secretly, causing Jin Ge to gasp slightly in pain.
She looked at the Grand Empress Dowager without changing her expression: "Grandmother, there is another one."
Ye Du placed his right hand on his chest and bent his waist to perform the etiquette of Ze State. The handsome man said indifferently: "We don't have cities, but we do have grasslands and horses. I originally wanted to give them to Ze State, but I am not the one in charge."
Those big, sincere eyes made the Empress Dowager feel numb all over.
You also know that you are not the one in charge, right?
What are you talking about if you can't make the decision?
They are really birds of a feather. Look at those two people and her good-for-nothing grandson, they are exactly like cut from the same mold.
The young uncle held his forehead, the Empress Dowager had a heart attack, and she walked leisurely and smiled.
Minghe sighed, filled with anger, while Yanyu smiled helplessly.
Didn’t we agree to pretend to be scared?
You look so proud that you almost have the expression "I am Long Yangzhi and I am obsessed with male beauty. If you have the guts, get me out of office" written all over your face.
