Chapter 531: Good boy
Chapter 531 Good boy
Early the next morning, the house was full of guests.
According to Chu Nanzhi's original intention, it was nothing more than to set up a few tables of banquets and invite the two families to come and celebrate.
It's just that under Chang Lao's order, after discussing with Liu Yun, Chu Wenbi and his wife, the two mistresses still sent invitations to many officials in the state capital and the clansmen of the two families.
Even Yue Guifei, Nandu Wang, and Beibin Wang both came with congratulatory gifts.
Lin Jinxiao's leg disease hadn't recovered yet, so since he agreed to Chu Nanzhi, he had no choice but to obediently sit in the living room with a cane on his back, and continued to pretend that his legs and feet were not flexible, so that Chu Nanzhi, Liu Yun, and Zhou could sit in the living room. Welcome guests outside the courtyard.
Knowing that Lin Jinxiao's leg disease has not yet healed, Concubine Yue was very anxious and concerned as soon as she entered the door:
"It's really a trick of luck. The concubine and sister have suffered so much with King Pingning for so many years. Now that he has finally gained wealth, he has suffered from a disability with inflexible legs and feet. He will have a seizure from time to time. It will be sealed at the end of the month Now that the grand ceremony is over, if the Dongsang and Baiyu people know about King Pingning's appearance, they will probably even covet the border states and counties even more."
Paused, her tone turned into a deep warning: "Fortunately, there is such a capable princess as you by his side, sister, you should manage Pingning Prefecture for him more in the future."
"Your concubine was joking, I'm just a woman from the village, how can I do such a master, and now I can only hope that his legs and feet will be more flexible as soon as possible, so that he can relieve His Majesty's worries."
Chu Nanzhi now knows about Little White Face's life experience, and knows that even if he speaks badly, the Empress Dowager and His Majesty will not easily remove him from the position of Governor.
Therefore, she intentionally sighed with regret: "Since he was promoted to the magistrate of Luyan Port County, His Majesty has received many rewards from His Majesty. His Majesty has been so gracious. His Highness originally wanted to go to court to thank him in person. Now his legs are sometimes good and sometimes bad. I can't travel any further, I only hope that the state capital can work together to protect the peace and stability of Ningzhou."
"The princess doesn't need to worry too much about this."
Nandu Wang Lin Tingkai said gloatingly: "With the governor of the Tang Dynasty leading an army of 100,000 troops to sit in the Duwei's mansion, no one would dare to violate the border. Besides, my nephew is only handicapped, so it's not that he can't take charge. With a nephew and daughter-in-law like you With the assistance of a virtuous housewife, nothing will go wrong in Pingning Prefecture."
"Then I will borrow the good words from Uncle Three Emperors."
Chu Nanzhi smiled gently.
Tang Ru never guessed Lin Jinxiao's life experience. He only thought that His Majesty and the Empress Dowager hurriedly promoted Lin Jinxiao and members of the Luyangang Lin clan just to guard against what happened in the past.
The Empress Dowager and His Majesty are afraid of King Qinghe. If there is a change in the capital, they will definitely not want King Qinghe to enter the capital. That's why they want to restore Lin Jinxiao as a precaution.
Now that Lin Jinxiao has such legs, let alone lead an army into the capital one day and lick blood on horseback, even letting him go to the court in a carriage to thank him would be an extremely laborious and laborious task.
Not to mention that he supervises and leads all the soldiers and horses in the whole state, he can't do anything big.
Although I thought so in my heart, I still had to be relieved and relieved.
Tang Ru solemnly assured: "Princess, please rest assured. Since the imperial court has allowed Your Highness to sit in Pingning Prefecture, even if His Highness occasionally suffers from ailments, we will be loyal and follow his lead, and obey His Highness and Wang Hao's orders."
"With the words of the Great Governor, I feel relieved."
Chu Nanzhi also pretended to be moved and agreed, signaling everyone to go to the living room to rest.
Seeing Lin Jinxiao and the quadruplets sitting upright, Concubine Yue began to warmly greet her:
"Jinxiao, just now, the concubine sister also told you about your general situation. You are working too hard and don't care about your body. Don't be too hasty now. Your loyalty to the court is obvious to everyone. Yes, from now on, you still need to keep your body tight."
Beibin Wang Lin Tingyan looked at his expression and echoed and said:
"That's right, Jinxiao, you have managed Luyan Port in an orderly manner in just a few months since you took office, and the series of decrees you have promulgated are even more beneficial to the country and the people. The implementation of the land equalization policy shows that the imperial court attaches great importance to you.
You are the pillar of the country. This is the government that governs the world. It is important to take it slow. Don’t rush it. Now that you are sick, you should take good care of your body. The affairs of the state capital will be taken care of by the governor of the Tang Dynasty. rest assured. "
Hearing the words against his will, and looking at the faces against his will, Lin Jinxiao really wanted to throw away the crutch in his hand, but after looking at the lady who was very satisfied with this, he resisted the pain that kept rising in his heart. Yi, coughed lightly, and replied with a stiff smile:
"Thanks to the sixth uncle and the noble concubine for caring, it is also my legs that are not up to date and have failed the holy grace."
I'm afraid that many people present were hoping that he would die due to leg disease, so they deliberately put on a very pessimistic attitude, and continued in a dejected manner: "To be honest, because this chronic disease almost killed me several times, If it wasn't for the concubine's wholehearted rescue, I wouldn't be where I am today, and if something bad happened to me in the future, I would ask the two emperor uncles to treat their orphans and widowed mothers kindly in the future."
"Today is your day of great joy, you are not allowed to say such depressing words."
His depressed and depressed attitude moved the Nandu Wang Lin Tingkai who hated him deeply:
"It's nothing more than a leg problem. At most, it's a lack of movement. Our Dahe Empire has always been tolerant. It's not that there are no servants with disabilities. Even female Jiao'e can be promoted." As an official, let alone such a talented and learned clan leader like you, His Majesty entrusts you with important tasks, which is the respect and trust for you."
Then he looked at the four little guys beside him, and specially told Dabao and Sanbao: "You two little guys must grow up quickly, and when you grow up, you will be able to share the worries of your father, mother and concubine. .”
Although Dabao Lin Ruiwen is small, he is very transparent about the world. Which of these uncles in Beijing is not looking forward to his father's early death, so he would not have sincere concern, deliberately cupped his hands, and solemnly replied: "Please don't worry, Uncle Huang. Ruiwen will definitely remember Uncle's teachings. In the future, he will definitely protect Pingning Prefecture for his father and Uncle Huang."
"What a good boy."
Nandu Wang Lin Tingkai didn't expect such a small brat to have such ambitions, he couldn't help feeling a little apprehensive, but on the face he pretended to be extremely kind and praised.
Chu Nanzhi saw that there were more and more guests coming in from outside, so she ordered to several people: "Please invite the imperial concubine, emperor uncle and everyone to sit inside."
After entering the hospital for a long time, he did not see Mr. Chang and Mr. Nie, and Wang Lin Tingyan of Beibin felt a little disappointed.
These two elders have retired for so many years and are still deeply relied on by the Empress Dowager and His Majesty. They must be well maintained to maintain the hearts of the people.
Looking at Chu Nanzhi with a smile, Lin Tingyan said eloquently, "I heard that Jinxiao and your niece and daughter-in-law's feast today was hosted by Mr. Chang, Mr. Nie and the two old wives. There are no signs of you."
"Oh, there are a lot of guests today, the elders and teachers' wives are talking with Zhao Taigong and the elders of the Chu family and Liu family at the Shushu."
Chu Nanzhi replied with a smile.
She is well aware of the temperament of the two elders. Zhao Taigong is now in his twilight years, and he also likes to be quiet.
Knowing that Mr. Zhao is also in the mansion, thinking of the old guy donating money to the state government, Concubine Yue still has a grudge in her heart.
This Zhao Mansion is far more than the million-dollar property. She was still thinking about being able to make another fortune from the old man, and said with a smirk: "It's been a while since I went back to my hometown to visit my relatives, and I haven't visited them all the time." Er Lao, today is also a coincidence, I happened to have a conversation with Er Lao."
Chu Nanzhi casually glanced at the yard, and saw the figures of Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Lin Jinhong's family, so she obediently ordered Mrs. Zhou: "Auntie, please take the noble concubine and the emperor to the school."
Mrs. Zhou followed the sound and left. Chu Nanzhi took a closer look in the crowd, but she didn't see Tang Yuanxi and Princess Qian, which was a bit strange.
