For the next three days, the emperor was busy cleaning up the remnants of the rebellion, and Li Jingchen stayed at home to recuperate. During these days, Jiang Tuantuan could be said to be very dedicated. She stayed up late, fed him, changed his medicine, and was much gentler than usual.
At that time, he was thinking in his heart that he really hoped that he could stay sick forever, but he didn't dare say this out loud, otherwise he would be beaten.
Every day after Yubao finished reading with his grandfather, he would run to the room to see his father. He would touch his father's face with his chubby little hands and mutter, "The pain is gone. Daddy will be well soon."
He was so moved that tears were about to flow. Looking at his wife and children who were busy running around for him, his heart was filled with warmth.
Only after truly experiencing death do you realize how wonderful it is to be alive.
When his injuries were almost healed and he was able to walk, the emperor immediately held a grand ceremony to announce Li Jingchen's identity to the world.
At this moment, Li Jingchen officially became a prince, and the emperor directly conferred upon him the title of prince, the highest status among the princes. In addition, he was allowed to inherit the title for three generations, and his mansion was rebuilt in the capital.
Jiang Tuantuan was also named a princess. In addition, because she made great contributions in the fight for the throne, she was also named a county lady.
On the day of the coronation ceremony, Jiang Tuantuan got up early in the morning to prepare clothes for him to wear today. Seeing that his wife was so diligent, Li Jingchen hurried out of bed.
"It's okay, Tuantuan. I can do it myself. Don't tire you out."
"Today is a good day for you. Take some rest. You have finally found your family. Congratulations."
"Thank you, Tuantuan."
After changing clothes and having breakfast, the two of them carried Yubao, Feng Xiaoli and Jiang Dafeng, and took a carriage to the palace. The guards at the palace gate became more courteous when they saw them.
While waiting in the back hall, Mingman ran over happily, gave her a gift, and said happily: "That's great, we will be family from now on, and you will be my sister-in-law."
"Oh, please don't call me sister-in-law. It sounds weird. It's better to call me Tuan Tuan. It sounds more intimate."
"Well, Tuantuan! You look really good today."
Mingman looked at the chubby-faced child beside her and said, "That must be Yubao, come and hug him, he's so cute."
Yubao was not shy at all and reached out to let her hug him. At this time, the emperor came in and saw how happy they were. He smiled and asked, "How is your injury?"
"Much better, it's scabbed over."
Feng Xiaoli and Jiang Dafeng saw the emperor coming and were about to salute, but the emperor immediately supported them and said, "From now on, we are family. There is no need to worry about these trivial etiquette. I also want to thank you two for saving my brother. Otherwise, I would not be able to recognize him today."
Jiang Dafeng: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
The emperor said, "Come quickly and let me see my nephew."
Yubao looked at the majestic man in front of him, and immediately straightened his body. His face became serious, and everyone who saw him laughed.
The time has come and the coronation ceremony officially begins. Li Jingchen takes Jiang Tuantuan's hand and walks to the center of the hall and begins to salute.
From today on, they are the prince and princess, and their identities are completely different.
The day after the ceremony, Li Jingchen submitted a letter of resignation, citing the fact that the prince's salary was too high, and he also had many fiefs. In addition, the emperor had rewarded him and Jiang Tuantuan with many things, so he was not short of money at all and just wanted to stay at home with his wife and son.
Moreover, he did not want to hold too much power. In addition, his status was high. Over time, people would always think that he was a threatening existence, which was not good for the relationship between him and the emperor.
The emperor rejected his request, so he wrote again, and the emperor called him in to give him a lecture.
"Why did you resign from your post when all was well? You are still young, you shouldn't indulge in pleasure and ruin your talent."
Li Jingchen said: "When the country needs me, I will definitely serve, but now I just want to spend more time with my wife and children and live the rest of my life in peace and stability."
The emperor finally compromised, but did not agree to his resignation. Instead, he gave him a nominal position, assisting other generals in training soldiers in the military camp. It was equivalent to just taking a walk every day, and it didn't matter whether he worked or not. However, other generals did not dare to let him work. Li Jingchen received a pitifully small salary every month, but he was quite satisfied with this position.
He agreed immediately, and from then on he could let himself go.
The prince's mansion was officially completed, and the whole family packed up their things and prepared to move, leaving the small courtyard where they had lived for more than a year.
Arriving at the gate of the mansion, servants immediately came to greet them and help with things. "Prince and Princess, please come this way. The yard has been cleaned."
There were a hundred palace maids, guards and eunuchs standing in front, all of whom were selected by the emperor to serve them. Seeing so many people, I really wasn't used to it. I still liked the quiet feeling of having fewer people at home.
So many people were dismissed immediately.
Only two cooks, four maids to clean the yard, and two gatekeepers and guards were left.
With so many people leaving at once, it looks much more comfortable.
The emperor looked at the people who were sent back and couldn't help but hold his forehead!
Those who were sent back were very nervous. They thought they would be punished and were all very scared, but the emperor simply let them return to their original positions.
The emperor was somewhat happy about his brother's behavior. He did not change his temperament just because he became a prince. It was really good.
The prince's mansion is really big. In addition to the front yard, there is also a very large garden in the middle. There are six separate small courtyards on both sides of the garden. Four of the small courtyards are binary and two are unary. It can be said to be very large. When the door is closed, it becomes an independent home.
The main courtyard where the two of them lived was even bigger, with its own yard inside, and the main house was twice the size of the original one. Looking at such a big house, Jiang Tuantuan was very happy and immediately prepared to go to the street to buy things to decorate it, because this courtyard was really too spacious, with almost nothing except beds, tables, chairs and so on.
Jiang Li and Jiang An excitedly ran around the entire mansion and began to choose the courtyard they liked.
Jiang An chose a place with a good view, and Jiang Li chose a very quiet yard. After so many years, they finally don’t have to sleep in the same room anymore!
Jiang Tuantuan plans to spend three days renovating the mansion, and then invite his good friends to visit.
Just thinking about it makes me excited. I can open my own little treasury, take out some money, and go shopping with my family.
