Zhao Ji was not satisfied, and he untied the swaddling clothes to reveal the little baby.
The baby had never seen so many people since he was born, and it was so frightened that his butt was exposed.
While crying.
While peeing.
Like a fountain, it splashed all over the elders of the Zhao clan, making everyone laugh.
Zhao Ji had shown enough, then he contentedly took the child back and returned him to Zhao Ning carefully. He glanced at the "couple" and said softly, "You have been exhausted on the journey, so take a good rest when you return to Qingjiang Palace. You can just come for the clan return ceremony in two days, and I have already arranged everything else for you."
Zhao Ning smiled faintly: "Thank you, father!"
Having said that, he and Li Caimei returned to the carriage together.
Before getting on the carriage, he gave Ying Wuji a reassuring look.
Zhao Ji waved to Ying Wuji and said, "Come here, you bastard!"
"Why!"
Ying Wuji walked forward with a smile: "Greetings, father!"
It's only been three months.
Zhao Ji seemed to have aged a little.
Ever since he reached an agreement with the Wei and Han families and destroyed the Li family, the old man no longer concealed his aging.
I used to dye my hair black, but now I don’t even dye it. The ends of my hair are still black, but the roots have turned gray.
If it weren't for the king of a country, he would have to observe etiquette.
I'm afraid he's too lazy to even take care of his appearance.
Just like in the Xinli Palace, his entire image was that of a country bumpkin. Even in Jiangcheng, it was said that it was the queen who helped him dress up.
Zhao Ji nodded slightly: "You have performed well in the new land. I will send two tailors to you later. You will also be present at the Zhao clan meeting in two days!"
Hearing this.
The elders of the Zhao clan couldn't help but look at each other.
Although Ying Wuji is the son-in-law of the royal family, strictly speaking, he does not belong to the Zhao clan. Logically speaking, Ying Wuji is not qualified to attend such a ceremony of returning to the clan.
In the past, there were many princes-in-law who wanted to force their way into the Zhao clan meeting to show their status in the State of Li, but in the end, none of them succeeded.
Ying Wuji this...
It was actually Zhao Ji who proposed it.
This is enough to show how much King Li values this son-in-law.
However, no one among the elders of the Zhao clan raised any objection. Although Ying Wuji's reforms were not so beneficial to the Zhao clan, his contributions to the State of Li were obvious to all. There was no reason why such a virtuous minister should not even be qualified to participate in the Zhao clan meeting.
A few days ago, they heard that Zhao Ji sent Zhao Du to take over the defense of Xinli City in order to guard against Ying Wuji and the Bai family.
Now that seems like complete bullshit.
After Zhao Ji gave some instructions, he returned to the palace. The elders of the Zhao clan also dispersed and prepared to prepare for tonight's welcoming banquet.
Ying Wuji watched a large group of people leave in a mob, pondered for a moment, then smiled and invited everyone to get on the carriage.
"Let's go! Go home!"
…
More than half a year apart.
The Prince Consort's Mansion remains the same as before, with an elegant courtyard and spotless appearance.
After all, Ying Wuji was rich. Although he moved out of Jiangcheng, he did not lay off any of the servants and maids in the Prince Consort's Mansion.
I live a happy life where I receive my monthly salary on time every day and don’t have a boss to serve me.
certainly.
Still working seriously.
Such a huge mansion of a royal consort is still the same as it was before.
but……
Ying Wuji arrived at the inner courtyard and turned around to take a look.
I saw a guest room with its door closed.
At this time of day, unoccupied guest rooms would have their doors and windows open for ventilation.
Ying Wuji looked at the doorman, opened his mouth and was about to ask.
The doorman quickly explained, "My Lord, the day before yesterday, Taoist Qingxu arrived in Jiangcheng and said he had no money to stay in an inn, so he came to stay at our mansion. After I arranged for the Taoist to stay, I immediately prepared to write you a letter, but I thought you would be back soon, so I didn't write."
"oh!"
Ying Wuji nodded and said, "Well done. Is the Taoist priest at home now?"
When he left Jiangcheng, he had instructed that if anyone came to visit, they could be arranged to stay at the Prince Consort's Mansion.
This includes Taoist Master Qingxu.
The doorman shook his head and said, "The Taoist priest is only here at night. He should be back when it's time for dinner."
Ying Wuji hummed: "Got it, let's go down and get the reward from the butler!"
The doorman was overjoyed and retreated while thanking him.
Bai Yi seemed to be thinking: "Master Qingxu actually came here at this time."
She had never met Taoist Qingxu, but she knew that he was the spokesperson of the Taishang Temple in the secular world.
Even though the Yang Zhu lineage and the Tai Shang Guan lineage did not interact frequently, she had heard that the Tai Shang Guan lineage had extremely strong hard power.
Only when the lineage of Yang Zhu is added with those who have gone astray can we be considered to be on par with him.
"What is he doing here..."
Ying Wuji rubbed his chin. In his impression, Taoist Qingxu didn't seem to do much except cheating the rich and nobles of their money and doing a few small things to take advantage of the situation.
This time point is quite sensitive.
I don't know what he is doing here at this time.
"It doesn't matter, just take a rest first!"
Ying Wuji smiled and told everyone to go back to their rooms to rest.
The so-called fatigue from traveling by boat and train is not a big burden on the body for practitioners.
It was just too boring along the way.
Originally, he could just chop a few times or fly with a sword and be back in a few hours.
It is too tiring to organize a large convoy and visit the people along the way.
Plus, something big was about to happen, and it felt like a sword was hanging over my head.
