Chapter 117 The Young Master of the Marquisate’s Bad Ways 9
Yiang couldn't help but smile as he looked at the two little kids who were eager to go out and play.
"Okay! As long as your parents agree, your uncle will definitely take you out to play next time."
"Great! Daddy, Mommy, and my uncle agreed.
You guys said before that as long as your uncle agrees, you must agree, and you absolutely can't cheat! "
The two children excitedly confirmed whether their parents would cheat.
Duanmu Moyun shook his head helplessly and said with a wry smile, "You two little brats, in your eyes, do you think your father is the kind of person who goes back on his word?
Your uncle doesn't mind the trouble, so why should I not agree?
Now that you're gone, the mansion will be quiet for a few days."
"Okay, Daddy hates us for being noisy.
"Grandpa, look at Daddy!" The two children pouted and complained to Duanmu Lingyue with a look of grievance.
“Hahahaha…Grandfather doesn’t care about the affairs of you kids.
Jin'er, Chen'er, you must eat well, study hard, practice martial arts diligently, and grow up healthily.
In the future, I will be more powerful than my grandfather, and even more powerful than your grandfather and father."
Duanmu Lingyue looked at the two children with a kind and gentle look on his face.
"Okay..." The two children answered loudly in unison, with innocent smiles on their faces.
Yi'ang looked at such a cute child. In his previous life, he had just grown into a teenager and was full of vigor and vitality, but he was forever stuck in the best age.
Duanmu Xijin had even just gotten engaged.
When I think of these things, I feel like there is a stone pressing on my heart.
I wanted to deal with Xia Jinshu right now.
But the wisher required that Xiahou Zexi would never have the chance to be emperor in his lifetime, so first he had to be born!
There is no news yet that Xia Jinshu is pregnant.
At least we have to wait until he is in Xia Jinshu's belly.
It’s really troublesome!
As for ensuring that the Marquis' Mansion remains standing for a hundred years, that's easy.
The next emperor should choose a reliable and wise ruler, who will at least not doubt his loyal ministers.
Just make do with this emperor now!
Although he was wary of the Marquis' Mansion, he didn't really want to do anything to it.
I just wanted to take back the military power, although I have never been very successful.
……
A few days later, I heard that Xia Jinshu had returned to the palace.
Soon, the day of the Queen Mother's birthday banquet arrived.
Yi'ang went to the palace with his grandfather, parents, elder brother and sister-in-law to celebrate the empress dowager's birthday.
As a subject, it is natural to arrive early.
When Yiang arrived, almost all the ministers in the court and their families were already there.
Familiar young ladies, gentlemen, and ladies were chatting in low voices in groups of three or four.
When everyone saw Marquis Duanmu Lingyue come in, they all stood up and greeted him.
Yi'ang walked to his seat and sat down. As a family member of the Marquis of Zhenguo, his seat could not be too far back.
But as a family member without rank, it is impossible for them to be in the first row.
Therefore, many family members' positions are after their fathers.
But Yiang didn't want to sit in the front row, so he specifically asked the palace maid to move his seat to the back row.
As soon as he sat down, he saw Xiao Mufeng sitting behind his father, Minister Xiao, with a coquettish smile on his face.
They raised their glasses, gestured to each other, and clinked glasses.
"The royal concubine has arrived."
Suddenly, the eunuch's loud shouts were heard.
In an instant, the banquet hall fell silent.
"Greetings to the Imperial Concubine, may the Imperial Concubine be well and safe."
The moment they saw Xia Jinshu coming in, they all knelt down and saluted.
Of course Yi'ang couldn't kneel down, so he used a little magic to make it look like he was bowing to others.
In fact, he was sitting lazily, watching Xia Jinshu walk in from outside.
This was the first time I saw the object of my mission since arriving in this world.
Although he had the memory of the wisher, he knew what Xia Jinshu looked like.
But now that I see her with my own eyes, she is indeed a beauty, and has some talent.
No wonder Duanmu Moyu has a hard time resisting beautiful women.
However, in Yi'ang's opinion, the deep calculation in his eyes destroyed this beauty.
It is beautiful, but it has no spirit or soul.
Xia Jinshu walked up to the high seat and sat on the left side of the emperor's seat.
The maid stepped forward and carefully adjusted the oversized hem of her skirt.
Xia Jinshu slowly sat down and said, "Everyone, please stand up. Today is the Queen Mother's birthday. Everyone, please relax and feel at ease."
"Thank you, noble concubine."
After Xia Jinshu finished speaking, everyone thanked him and then stood up.
The feudal system does not necessarily harm people, but it does torture them.
After everyone stood up, they sat in their seats. No one ran around, and no one made loud noises.
In the palace, no one would challenge the emperor's authority and bottom line.
Even if she is just a small concubine, no matter if you are the prime minister or the minister, you still have to respect her and salute her on the surface.
Because she is the emperor's woman, if you disrespect her, you are disrespecting the emperor.
At the very least, you are arrogant and ignorant of etiquette. At the most, you may be said to have the intention of rebellion.
Xia Jinshu stared at Yiang, sitting there lazily, looking in every direction except his own.
I feel depressed!
Xia Jinshu was very angry that Yiang did not reply to the letter or show up for the appointment.
He had even already thought about how he wanted Yi'ang to die miserably.
While Xia Jinshu was staring at Yiang, Yiang was also thinking in his mind how to make her live a miserable life.
In order not to attract attention, Xia Jinshu looked away for a while.
At this banquet, I don’t know how many people are the emperor’s spies.
To be more precise, they are all the emperor's spies.
I don't know how many more people were bribed to become spies for others.
About half an hour later, there was noise outside the hall again.
"The Emperor has arrived, the Empress has arrived." the eunuch shouted.
"Long live the Emperor, long live the Queen, and live the Queen a thousand lives."
Everyone was kneeling with their heads lowered, so they could only see the emperor and empress's feet as they moved step by step.
When they reached the highest seat, the emperor said, "My dear ministers, please stand."
After everyone stood up, the emperor said again, "Everyone, sit down.
Today is the day to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday, so please don't be shy."
After everyone sat down, they were all silent and didn't dare to speak.
When the emperor saw this, he also understood everyone's restraint.
He just glanced at the eunuch behind him, and the eunuch understood and winked at those who were playing the piano and music.
Hearing the music continue, everyone slowly relaxed.
The emperor looked down at the ministers and their families, all talking in low voices, and found it somewhat boring.
He knew that these ministers could not be honest with him.
I can't trust them 100%.
Even at a banquet, they are very cautious. They are so cautious that they feel bored.
The Queen Mother didn't come, so the banquet never really started.
Yiang was getting a little impatient.
Such a boring banquet, if I didn’t want to cause trouble to the Marquis of Zhenguo’s Mansion.
I definitely won't come.
The ministers dug a hole for the emperor, and the emperor suspected that the ministers had ulterior motives.
