Xie Jingchen heard that Lin Jinxiao was talking about his affairs with little Zhizhi, and his calm face finally lost its composure, and argued with reason: "If you are really doing it for her, you shouldn't let Princess Yuanxi enter the palace.
, don’t you know that Nan Zhi’s mother’s family is weak in power, and now that she is exempted from taking the position of princess, many people are jealous and want to take her place immediately.”
After a moment of silence, Xie Jingchen's handsome face became even more sullen, and he shouted angrily: "She is pregnant now, and you even let her enter the capital alone. Don't you know that Jingling City is a place where kings are fighting each other?"
, you have already become a thorn in everyone’s side, how do you ensure her return safe and sound.”
Mentioning this matter, Lin Jinxiao also closed his eyes with some sadness: "This is a matter between me and her. I won't thank the prince for taking the trouble to do anything between us husband and wife. Since I have married her, I will love her."
I cherish her and will protect her. I don’t need Prince Xie to teach me about my responsibilities as a husband. However, Prince Xie never forgets to deliberately approach my princess. What is his motive?
After all, the Xie family is a noble family with a well-educated family. Do you think I need to teach you even the most basic gentlemanly behavior, such as not missing other people’s wives?”
Xie Jingchen was always wrong about this matter, but he really didn't want little Zhizhi to live in fear with this guy. After thinking about it, he said: "Prince Pingning came to see me today. He just wanted me to enter the capital as soon as possible. I can agree to it."
You will set off tomorrow, and all the rumors will be dispelled."
After a pause, he turned to a solemn voice and said: "She saved my life, and she is the most unique woman I have ever seen in my life. Even if she is your wife, if I know that she has suffered any injustice, even though Bai Yuguo is
It’s a small country, but I’m not afraid to compete with King Pingning.”
After saying that, he stood up resolutely and prepared to leave.
"I will not give Prince Xie any chance."
Lin Jinxiao said sternly: "Since Prince Xie knows that she is in a difficult situation, he should firmly remember his mission when he arrives in the capital and put away those thoughts that he shouldn't have."
Xie Jingchen paused slightly, secretly clenched his fists, and then walked away with heavy steps.
Watching that tall figure disappear before his eyes, Lin Jinxiao shook his head with disdain: "It's such an out-and-out love affair."
After receiving Xie Jingchen's promise, he finally felt more at ease and began to drink wine comfortably.
At the Captain's Mansion, Lin Jinqian was in great spirits today, thinking that the day after tomorrow would be the ceremony for the conferment of King Pingning, she led Tang Yuanxi to once again count the dowry prepared for her recently.
Tang Yuanxi's mother Tian Yumo was the Queen Mother who forcibly broke up her childhood sweetheart's relationship in order to win over the Tang family and forced her to renew her relationship with General Tang Yao. In recent years, the Queen Mother remembered what happened in the past and she was particularly fond of the little princess, so Lin Jinqian also
The little princess was more partial to this cousin and sister-in-law.
Examining the dowry list carefully, Lin Jinqian murmured to himself: "Although I am just a concubine, I can bring more dowry into the house. I will have a rich foundation. Sooner or later, the jealous woman will not be able to compare with you. I also took advantage of the jealous woman."
This time when you enter the capital, you must seduce Prince Pingning's heart and try to conceive my brother Wang's child before the jealous woman comes back. In this way, even if you cannot become the head of the palace immediately, you can still be on equal footing with her."
"I understand, sister-in-law, I will try my best."
Tang Yuanxi's mind was now filled with Lin Jinxiao's charming face, and she just wished she could move into the palace immediately.
Encouraged by the princess's sister-in-law, her morale doubled and she was almost sure of winning over Lin Jinxiao.
"Hey, our little girl is going to get married after all."
Lin Jinqian held the dowry list, glanced at Tang Ru who was watching coldly, and then thought about the sister-in-law who was loved by thousands of people going to be a concubine, she couldn't help but feel sad for a while, and then ordered:
"I asked Yuan Xi to pick out some of the treasures sent by the county officials yesterday and put them on the dowry list. This married girl relies solely on the dowry to have a stable life in her husband's family."
Tang Ru frowned when he heard this and said angrily: "Is the princess really going to provoke Prince Pingning and his wife to draw swords against each other before she gives up? The incident yesterday was not big enough?"
Lin Jinqian thought that it seemed to be wrong. It was originally given to the couple. If he came halfway and then gave it as a dowry, wouldn't he deliberately embarrass others?
After thinking about it for a while, I had to give up.
Staring blankly at the dowry list in her hand, she always felt that something was wrong, and suddenly frowned and said: "Husband-in-law, why did I find that the money in the treasury of the house has been inexplicably less recently? I asked the housekeeper, and he said it was from our Gaosheng Restaurant.
I spent a lot of money when I bought the shop."
Tang Ru panicked for a moment and immediately excused himself: "That's right, the princess doesn't know how expensive firewood and rice are when she's not a householder. The shops in Qinghefang are not cheap. Since Princess Pingning revitalized the place, the prices of shops have gone up even more. Princess is very...
If you want to open a restaurant there, you will naturally have to spend more money."
"That jealous woman is just relying on good luck. After my princess Gaosheng Restaurant opens, sooner or later she will be squeezed out of business."
Lin Jinqian curled her lips disapprovingly, and when she looked at Tang Yuanxi, she felt a little guilty: "It's all because of my sister-in-law's lack of consideration. No matter how you run a restaurant at this time, I will have to worry about buying a dowry for you."
"Sister-in-law, there is no need to blame yourself. Such a dowry is rich enough. Besides, I still have food."
Tang Yuanxi smiled and said: "Princess Pingning didn't have much dowry when she married His Highness, just a few hundred taels of silver. Now she has established a firm foothold in the palace."
"What should we compete with her on?"
Lin Jinqian pursed her lips angrily: "She just gave birth to two sets of children for Prince Pingning. The mother is more valuable than the son."
A few people were talking when they saw servants running in in a hurry.
Lin Jinqian handed the dowry list to the maid next to her and glared at the young boy: "How can you be so flustered? What's the matter? Could it be that someone is coming to give gifts again?"
The young man looked at Tang Ru first, and then cautiously replied: "Princess Qi, young master Qi, Mr. Kang, the captain of Sili School, would like to see you."
"Kang Xiu?"
Tang Ru looked at Lin Jinqian suspiciously: "What is he doing in Luyan Port at this time?"
"Could it be that his father-in-law and mother-in-law sent him here?"
Lin Jinqian was also a little unsure, and shook his head carelessly: "My father-in-law is really worrying too much. King Pingning is a hemiplegic and sickly body. His old illness relapses at every turn. There is no need for Mr. Sili to come here. Instead, it is Jingzhong
Those veterans need to pay attention."
"Please come in and ask."
Tang Ru waved to the boy, and accompanied the princess to sit on the main seat above, waiting quietly for Kang Xiu's arrival.
Not long after, Kang Xiu was brought in by his servants. After several people greeted each other, Kang Xiu went straight to the point: "I only came here for one thing. I heard that Her Royal Highness the Princess accepted the gifts of officials from various counties.
