"Thank you, Your Majesty, but Your Majesty, look, in terms of seniority, you are my uncle, right?"
When Li Xiaochen heard that the emperor agreed, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then spoke tentatively again.
"What do you want to say?"
The emperor looked at Li Xiaochen warily and asked.
"What I mean is, since you are my uncle, shouldn't you show some appreciation for your nephew's marriage? Moreover, my fiancée went to Jibei City this time and worked hard to help you handle the affairs of Beicheng so perfectly. You should give her some reward, otherwise those meritorious officials will be disappointed!"
Li Xiaochen said a lot of things, which hit the emperor directly in the heart. His chest hurt. Was this the feeling of being stabbed in the back?
"Wow, you've been waiting for me here, little brat?"
Why did this brat suddenly come back? I was looking at the wedding date, and it was really for the lawless fiancée to give a reward.
"Your Majesty, look at what you said. This reward to Pingning is not what she deserves. She has made so much contribution to the drought relief this time. Not only did she help you deal with the North City very well, she also helped to stop the conspiracy in the North Border and helped you catch the spy in the capital. Such a contribution, shouldn't she be rewarded?"
Li Xiaochen argued that if he didn't help Lin Yuxin get the reward, he would not leave today.
"Alright, you little brat, I know, I didn't say I wouldn't give it to you, so what?"
The emperor was speechless. Why were the couple just looking forward to getting something from the palace?
As far as I know, Lin Yuxin has picked up a lot of gold and silver treasures. To be honest, the prefect of North City has seized a lot of gold and silver treasures.
Although money is needed to restore North City, I don't believe that Lin Yuxin, who is so greedy, would not leave some for her.
Besides, that little girl took 10% of the profits as a reward, and now she's back and wants a reward? It's totally unreasonable!
Unfortunately, this golden matter cannot be publicized. We can only keep it a secret, so we still have to bear the loss!
But…!
The emperor suddenly raised the corners of his lips and said to Li Xiaochen:
"Okay, you can go back. I understand. You have worked so hard for Pingning, and you have done so much good deeds to benefit the people. You deserve a reward. Go back and wait. I will write the imperial edict and let Eunuch Liu announce it."
The emperor started to chase people away directly. Now not only did he have a headache seeing Lin Yuxin, he also had a headache seeing that brat Li Xiaochen.
Li Xiaochen saw that the emperor agreed, and knew that he couldn't force it. He had to reward him first, and he could ask for the rest next time.
Yu 놆늀 bowed respectfully and left.
But before leaving, he asked the Queen for two days off! He said he was accompanying the princess!
It was revealed by the emperor in a memorial.
You are the princess, but you haven't even gotten married yet, and you are called the princess? Do you have any shame?
Li Xiaochen doesn't care what the emperor thinks, as long as he gets the leave, it will be real.
The footsteps out of the palace were very fast, without stopping at all.
…
Because Lin Yuxin was hungry, she went straight to the Fu Man Lou restaurant she had been longing for after leaving the palace to eat crystal buns and roast duck!
"Waiter, give me a roast duck and a crystal bun, quickly!"
Lin Yuxin went there and couldn't wait to order food.
"Okay! Sir, please come this way!"
The waiter enthusiastically led Lin Yuxin to a table near the window.
Lin Yuxin went into the palace in such a hurry that she did not bring a maid with her. She did not go home directly after leaving the palace, and there was no one to serve her.
It was a bit strange for a person to sit in a corner of the hall at this moment.
The main reason was that Lin Yuxin's dress, appearance, and temperament made her look like a lady from an official family, but she went out alone without a maid, which made some outsiders stare at her again and again.
Soon the dishes ordered by Lin Yuxin were on the table. Lin Yuxin didn't care what others thought. She picked up the chopsticks and picked up a crystal bun and stuffed it into her mouth.
Mmm! Delicious!
Lin Yuxin squinted her eyes in satisfaction and ate very quickly, one bite at a time. When she was scalded, she would stick out her tongue and blow a few times to relieve the burn.
Some people around her who were interested in her kept turning their heads to look at her.
There was a man sitting at a table not far from her. He had been watching Lin Yuxin for a long time, and now he chuckled when he saw her eating.
This woman is really interesting!
Lin Yuxin actually had no appetite, she was mainly too hungry, she didn't expect to be delayed for so long before entering the palace? The queen didn't even give her the food she picked.
Lin Yuxin ate half of the crystal bun and half of the roast duck. She was basically full and her eating speed slowed down.
After Lin Yuxin finished her meal, she paid the bill, left Fook Man Restaurant and prepared to go home.
The man at the table not far away also paid the money and walked out.
After walking for a while, Lin Yuxin heard someone calling for help.
Lin Yuxin paused, in broad daylight, how could someone be so audacious?
Is she going to watch this excitement or not?
Lin Yuxin hesitated for a moment, then turned around and headed towards the shouting sound.
If you don't watch this lively place, you are a fool!
When Lin Yuxin got closer, she saw that there were several men beating a man at the entrance of a casino. The man kept begging for mercy.
"Hey, why is this kid gambling again? He deserves to be beaten!"
"늀놆, I've seen 놛 several times."
"I heard that he even lost his wife. How abominable!"
"This kind of person deserves to be beaten to death!"
Since this place is usually busy and it is daytime now, there are quite a lot of people watching.
Lin Yuxin listened to the discussions of the people around her, looked at the man who was beaten, and raised her eyebrows.
It turns out that the gambler lost a lot and owed money, so he was beaten!
Lin Yuxin was not prepared to help in this situation. She watched the excitement for a while and prepared to turn around and leave.
But at this moment an accident happened. The man who was beaten suddenly burst out with strong strength for some reason. He got up all of a sudden, pushed away the man who beat him, and ran towards Lin Yuxin.
The people around all screamed and stepped back when they saw this, but Lin Yuxin had already turned her back and was about to leave, so she didn't see the man coming towards her and only heard the screams around her.
Lin Yuxin suddenly felt something was wrong, but it was too late. Then she felt a huge force of air behind her, pushing her out suddenly.
Lin Yuxin was caught off guard and was knocked flying, about to hit a street vendor's stall.
[It’s over, it’s over. This time I’m going to be crippled if I don’t die! What are you looking at so much? What are you looking at so much? You’re watching so much that you’re losing yourself! Wuwuwu! ]
Lin Yuxin quickly closed her eyes, ready to rush forward.
At this moment, a hand suddenly grabbed Lin Yuxin's arm and pulled her back. Lin Yuxin felt like she flew in the air and then fell into a man's arms.
Lin Yuxin opened her eyes suddenly and blinked, still a little dazed!
"How long will the girl stay in my arms?"
A man's voice came from the top of her head, and Lin Yuxin came back to her senses. She quickly stood up and walked out, apologizing repeatedly:
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, and thank you for what I said earlier!"
Lin Yuxin thanked him while looking up and saw the man's appearance clearly.
