Using such a high-sounding reason to request a title for his granddaughter made Lin Jinxiao dumbfounded.
He played with the cup in his hand nonchalantly, feeling funny and angry, and thought to himself: The person who apologized is really a good person. This is not making up for anything, it is clearly torturing himself.
Lin Jinshu was even more angry when he heard that. He didn't care about the presence of his father-in-law and mother-in-law. He said bluntly and coldly: "Second uncle, as a minister, it is our unshirkable responsibility to be loyal to the country. I think whether it is my late uncle or I
The uncles and brothers of the Ji family have never thought of using their loyalty to His Majesty as a bargaining chip to claim credit."
The flattering words of the clan members present today, whether they were heartfelt words or had ulterior motives, already seemed to her to be counterproductive.
It is said that the master is superior to the master. If you don't restrain yourself at this time, you will undoubtedly get burned.
Indirectly asking for a seal by pleading guilty, this idea is simply unthinkable.
Ji Muzhuo knew that no one in the entire Ji family, old or young, dared to disobey Princess Shu, so he had no choice but to turn his attention to Yin Enci and begged again:
"Old ancestor, I don't want to take credit for the Ji family. The eldest princess's body is still cold. Although I know that she made some mistakes, she has been respectful and polite in our Ji family all these years. She is filial to her parents-in-law and elders, and treats her uncles, brothers and sisters with courtesy. Now that she has passed away,
I can't help but feel sad and sad, and today I just want to risk my life to seek some grace for her, an orphan."
These words directly touched Yin Enci's sore spot.
Even though this damn girl Yan Jun had committed a huge crime, it was the flesh that fell from her body. Because of this, she made an exception and released her granddaughter from Youting Palace. She wanted the Ji family to make the decision on their own to find a marriage for this child, but she didn't.
I once thought that they had finally decided to go to the palace.
If it hadn't been for those things before, it would have been okay for me to ask for grace for her in front of my grandson, but now, how could I have the face to make the decision?
Ji Muzhou, the old patriarch of the Ji family, came to the banquet happily today, not expecting that his brothers would show up like this.
It is indeed a good thing for the Ji family to let their grandniece enter the palace, but it is really difficult to do so at such an inopportune time.
After thinking about it in his mind, he could only help the grandfather and grandson to speak:
"Ancestor, Your Majesty, although what Shu'er said is very reasonable, it is also unsatisfactory. It is his duty to sacrifice his life for the country with courtesy, and he should not take credit for it. But now, your Majesty has just ascended to the throne.
, it is the time when the world should be blessed, and the enfeoffment of the Sixth Palace of Jin is not only a major event to protect the prosperity of the royal family, but also a major plan to appease the ministers and stabilize the government."
"I have heard very clearly what my grandfather and I were saying today. After all, I just feel that now that I am in power, I should be generously rewarded."
Lin Jinxiao sneered and shook his head: "Since the words have come to this point, I would like to ask, if I can't give you a reward, can the ministers not be loyal to the country and not serve the court?"
The explicit accusation made everyone look shocked and looked at each other, but no one dared to speak.
Looking at the sudden silence in the palace, Lin Jinxiao said decisively: "I will also say what I said before today. Now I am only more than 20 years old, and I have already given birth to three pairs of children. It can be considered a blessing for the royal family. I spent my days in the countryside wandering around with clouds and wild cranes.
I'm used to it, and I just want to live a pure life. I swear here today that I will never have a sixth house in my life."
"this"
Ji Muzhou was stunned when he heard this.
Although he is his grandson, he has never seen such a strange emperor.
Which emperor would guard one woman for the rest of his life?
Furthermore, this would not only destroy the thoughts of the ministers, but also make it difficult to balance the forces between the DPRK and China, and there will only be a phenomenon of one dominant family.
He looked at Yin Enci with a bitter look on his face, but Yin Enci just remained silent.
Ji Muzhuo had no choice but to look at Chu Nanzhi and persuaded her earnestly: "They say that the queen has a broad mind. I believe that the queen will never allow your majesty to act like a pamperer and treat the ministers coldly.
"
Hearing this, Chu Nanzhi just smiled indifferently.
Logically speaking, the emperor's establishment of three palaces and six courtyards, in addition to satisfying his selfish desires, also played a role in balancing the government.
It's just that the elder of the Ji family used so many high-sounding reasons just to make Ji Wanying the imperial concubine. This is really a bit well-intentioned.
"I really don't dare to say that I am broad-minded. As for His Majesty's private affairs, I don't dare to make my own decisions."
As he said that, Chu Nanzhi looked at Ji Wanying with sharp eyes: "But there is one thing I still want to make clear. If I can tolerate even one person who murders my child, then I am indeed not a qualified mother."
These words instantly reminded Yin Enci that she still vividly remembers the incident when Wanying poisoned Erbao Lin Ruixi.
What the elders of the Ji family did today made her even more disappointed. She had already seen that Yin and Ji were proud of their family achievements and were proud of their favor.
This is not a good thing.
We had just brought down the Tang and Yang families and put an end to the chaos. We should all work together to help the emperor revitalize the government. But we forgot these original intentions and started asking for rewards and consolidating our family status. She could no longer watch this happen.
.
She originally wanted to entertain the Chu family who came from afar, but when the Ji family made such a scene, she lost interest in staying any longer.
After coughing a few times, Yin Enci was too lazy to pay attention to these troublesome things. He left Ji Wanying who was still kneeling, stood up and signaled to Chu Nanzhi: "The Ai family is a little tired, Queen, you and Ruiwen and the others
Accompany the Ai family back to Zhaochun Palace."
After finishing speaking, he immediately turned to Hai Da, and Tang Weiming ordered: "Hai Changshi, you and your son must serve the emperor and the family of Prince Xiaopingning well. The Ai family heard that the emperor wanted to serve the three sons of Liu Xuan and Ting Shujia.
Mother has granted me a marriage, and the queen has just returned to the palace, so you guys can help with the arrangements."
Then, he glanced at Lin Jinyun and Lin Jinhui, who were sitting upright below, and waved kindly: "You two girls, please follow your royal sister-in-law's family to Zhaochun Palace.
Now that you are at the age of discussing marriage, Aijia is very happy today and wants to personally prepare some dowry for you."
When the clan members in the palace heard this, they immediately sensed some bad omens.
The marriage between Lin Jinyun and Zhang Yu, who was born into a poor family, was already criticized by others, and Lin Jinhui was from an unpopular clan in Luyan Port. Now that they were invited by their ancestors for their marriage, I am afraid that even the ancestors will start to favor these children from a poor family.
For a time, the dignitaries of the Ji family and the Yin family fell into panic.
After Yin Enci led Chu Nanzhi, Lin Jinhui, Lin Jinyun and the others to leave, Lin Jinxiao told Haida and Tang Weiming to escort his father-in-law and his family back home.
Just when the Yin and Ji families were at a loss what to do, Lin Jinshu walked directly to the palace, bowed his body respectfully and said: "Brother, I have an unkind invitation for you to enter the palace today. I hope you will grant me your permission.
"
"Jin Shu has something to do, but it doesn't matter."
Seeing how serious she was, Lin Jinxiao guessed that it must not be a simple matter.
"Now that peace has been restored to the empire, my sister wants to resign from all positions in the military, and from now on she can live with her husband and raise children at home with peace of mind."
After Lin Jinshu finished speaking, not only the elders of the Ji family looked stunned, but even Ji Huaishu couldn't help but frown.
