Chapter 117 Chapter 117 Zhang Cheng Lunian raised his eyes angrily, but...
Chapter 117
Looking at Lin Zhiqi's determined and unrestrained demeanor, Jing Zhuoyue felt a pity, yet was also happy for her. "Congratulations. I'll be looking forward to the day I meet 'General Lin'."
Lin Zhiqi: "Great! I will work hard! I also look forward to His Royal Highness Prince Jing becoming famous in the Western Regions!"
Jing Zhuoyue raised an eyebrow, his expression familiar from their time together: "I'm making peace with someone, not going to war. Why would I want to show off my power?"
Lin Zhiqi chuckled, "Being able to make the Western Regions more submissive to our Dayan is also a manifestation of our prestige! Does His Highness, just because he married Princess Amina, mean that the Western Regions will no longer harbor rebellious thoughts?"
Jing Zhuoyue glared at her: "Be careful with your words."
Lin Zhiqi looked around. "I was just speaking to Your Highness, what are you afraid of?" Then she suddenly realized, "Oh, I understand. After Your Highness married Amina, you showed compassion for her and naturally didn't want further conflict. And that's right. If peace could continue, it would be a blessing for the people." Jing Zhuoyue was silent for a moment, then whispered, "Although I'm married to Amina, I'm first and foremost the Prince of Dayan, shouldering the heavy responsibility of protecting the country. If the nations of the Western Regions truly disregard the alliance and marriage and cause unrest, I will not show any mercy."
Lin Zhiqi smiled and patted his shoulder: "I believe you."
Jing Zhuoyue and she stood on the bridge for a while before he said, "Before the Dragon Boat Festival, we can arrange a few more drinks when we have time."
Lin Zhiqi agreed cheerfully: "No problem!"
…
Lin Zhiyi and Jing Yue are still busy these days.
I am busy with official business and busy with personal matters.
——Lin Zhiqin and Zhou Bokai’s wedding is scheduled for March 6th. There is less than a month left, and they will take time to help with the preparations.
Lin Zhiyi had to go to the Imperial College and was also busy at the Ministry of Revenue, so Jingyue would go to the Duke's Mansion whenever she had time.
He is a married man and has experience. With him around, the people in the mansion are busy but not in chaos.
The old man and the old lady of the Mu family watched Lin Zhiqin grow up from a baby, so their feelings towards her are naturally different. They are closer to her and love her more.
Mu's uncle, aunt, cousins and sisters also couldn't bear to part with Lin Zhiqin.
Therefore, Lin Shuo and Mu Hanyan, the father and mother, could not do anything.
The dowry provided by the Mu family alone was even more generous than what the Lin family prepared.
The Zhou family's financial resources were not impressive, and no matter how generous the betrothal gift they prepared, it could not be as generous as that of the Mu family, the richest family in Beijing.
Fortunately, Zhou Bokai had made great contributions in suppressing the rebellion in Yuzhou this time, and was awarded a title and a house. The two things added together made his fortune not shabby at all.
During the more than half a month of waiting for the wedding, Zhou Bokai was grinning from ear to ear. Not only him, but everyone in the Zhou family was looking forward to the arrival of the eldest daughter-in-law.
Their wedding was scheduled for the sixth day of March, and it was not the biggest happy event in the capital.
Because on the third day of March, the palace held a full moon banquet for the two newly added little grandsons of the emperor.
Because there was only one day difference, strictly speaking, it was less than a day, so Emperor Longshun ordered that the two little grandsons celebrate their full moon on the same day, and in the palace.
As for whether the Crown Prince's Mansion and the Rui Wang Mansion wanted to celebrate their children separately, that was up to them. Emperor Longshun and the Empress had to hold a celebration in the palace anyway.
This is the best thing to happen after the snowstorm.
Several princesses and their princes-in-law, other princes and princesses, as well as several major families that are related to the royal family by marriage, will all go to the palace for the banquet.
Of course Lin Zhiyi and Jingyue had to go too.
Duke Lin and his wife also entered the palace with Lin's books and paintings.
Lin Zhiqi was originally a captain of the Jinwu Guard and was on duty in the palace. She performed her duties conscientiously and did not attend palace banquets.
Lin Zhihua and Xie Junxing had already gone through the formalities of accepting the marriage proposal, asking for the name, accepting the marriage proposal, and accepting the betrothal gifts, and the Xie family was among the invited guests. So, upon seeing Xie Junxing, she smiled and waved. Xie Junxing smiled at her and quickly came over to greet Duke Lin and his wife, then chatted with Lin Zhihua for a few moments.
Lin Zhishu was finally able to meet the fifth prince in person.
Both of them were gentle and reserved people. They just looked at each other and smiled, and then there was no other action.
Jing Yue and Lin Zhiyi were both at the banquet hosted by the prince and princess. Seeing Jing Zhuoran's shy look, they couldn't help but exchange glances.
——They recalled all the times they had teased each other.
It really feels like a lifetime ago.
As Jing Yue was laughing, his expression suddenly turned cold. He sensed a hot and uncomfortable gaze, and looked up - it was Cheng Lunian who was staring at him!
Cheng Lunian's eyes were blazing with heat, yet shone with a hint of darkness, like a poisonous snake in the dark night. He knew Jing Yue had spotted him, and his smile grew even more excited.
"Lu Nian." The prime minister had been paying attention to his son. When he noticed that he had lost his composure, he reminded him in a low voice.
Cheng Lunian said indifferently: "I'm just taking a look. Dad, go and socialize well. Don't worry. I won't cause any trouble."
"I don't think you'd dare. This is in the palace! This is your nephew's full moon celebration! Wake up!"
"I know, Dad."
After Cheng Lunian coaxed Cheng Miao away, he looked at Jing Yue calmly.
This time, he was not only looking at Jing Yue, but also at Lin Zhiyi, who was not killed by him and was lucky enough to successfully marry Princess Liyang!
His vision was suddenly blocked. Cheng Lunian looked up angrily, but was met with a cold Shura face.
