As soon as Yan Qiqi finished speaking, the Queen shouted sharply: "How brave, you dare to reject the red envelope the Emperor gave you, and you also said that the Emperor is stingy and contemptuous of the emperor's authority. This is a heinous crime."
The crime was so heinous? Yan Qiqi couldn't help but twitch the corners of her lips. However, it was too far-fetched to put such a big label on her head just because the emperor was stingy.
Then, the queen looked at Yin Xianglong beside her and said, "Your Majesty must punish this lawless stinky girl severely."
Damn stinky girl, I have long disliked her. Last time I almost shot Qi'er's baby's lifeblood. Now I finally got the chance. I can't let her go easily.
Yan Qiqi wanted to step forward to argue, but unexpectedly, Yin Tianjue beside him grabbed her hand and motioned her not to speak.
Well, since there is a man taking the lead for her, it would be better for her to take a back seat.
Yan Qiqi stood there calmly, waiting to see how Yin Tianjue would acquit her.
"Father, Ah Qi is used to being naughty. Please don't get along with her." Yin Tianjue said slightly.
Before Yin Xianglong could speak, the queen on the side scolded him sharply: "If you despise the emperor, just using the word naughty is enough. Then where will the emperor's power be from now on?"
Yin Tianjue frowned slightly, his face suddenly darkened, and he said in a cold voice: "Queen, today I and Aqi are here to serve tea. This is a matter between families. There is no need to turn this matter into a big deal.
I guess my father also hopes to enjoy family happiness."
"Well, Jue'er is right. We are the only family now who don't need to be formal." Yin Xianglong said to the eunuch standing on the side, "Please order someone to take out 10,000 taels of gold and send it to Prince Rui's Mansion."
"Yes, Your Majesty." The eunuch immediately got the order and left.
These words made Qiqi a blessing in disguise, earning ten thousand taels of gold in vain, and she immediately became happy.
This is real gold, enough for her to spend for a while.
He looked down at the thin red envelope in his hand, tore it open on the spot, and took out a piece of paper. When he saw the face value of one hundred thousand taels written on it, he felt happy again.
Unexpectedly, this emperor was quite generous. He spent one hundred thousand taels at a time.
He glanced sideways at the red envelope in Yin Tianjue's hand. Before she could ask for it, Yin Tianjue gave it to her, "Here you go, Cai Fan."
Yan Qiqi was naturally "disrespectful" about the banknotes and immediately stuffed them into her pocket.
There are benefits to coming to the palace. You can get two hundred thousand taels of silver and ten thousand taels of gold in one fell swoop.
Yin Tianjue's lips twitched, why did he marry such a money-loving woman.
Looking at the interaction between the young couple below, Yin Xianglong didn't drink tea at this time otherwise he would squirt again.
"Okay, okay." Yin Xianglong said in a deep voice, "That's it for now. It's not easy to get money. Just talk to me, but don't be too extravagant and wasteful."
Then, he said to the queen: "It's not bad to make a little joke in a cheerful manner. Don't make fun of her every day. The children will not dare to get close to you."
When Yin Xianglong said this, the queen could only swallow her dissatisfaction and replied: "Yes, I understand."
He raised his eyes and glared at Yan Qiqi calmly. He really took advantage of her this time. It doesn't matter that there will be plenty of opportunities to find fault with her in the future.
"Jue'er, your mother-in-law and the queen haven't served tea yet, please hurry up." The emperor urged.
Yin Tianjue lowered his head slightly and replied, "It's the father."
Then, he pulled Yan Qiqi and knelt in front of the queen.
Although Yan Qiqi felt a lot of reluctance in her heart, she still knelt down.
She once again changed her view on the palace. It would be better to come to this palace less often in the future, otherwise, her knees would definitely get calluses if she knelt like this every day.
Although I love money, I still like to be free.
Yin Tianjue picked up the teacup handed over by the palace maid and offered it to the queen, "Please have tea."
The queen was extremely resentful towards these two people, but the emperor couldn't say anything in front of her. He could only take it and take a sip.
He raised his hand and waved to the palace maids behind him, indicating that he would distribute the red envelopes to them.
As long as it's money, Yan Qiqi wants it no matter whose money it is, it's all the same money anyway, so if you don't want it, you don't want it for free.
He took the red envelope and opened it immediately. When he saw that there was a face value of ten thousand taels of silver inside, he frowned slightly, expressing his dissatisfaction with the Queen's pickiness.
Yin Tianjue slapped her with the red envelope angrily, and then threw the ten thousand taels in his hand to Yan Qiqi.
Then came Concubine Wan. She didn't say a few words since they came in. She just looked at them coolly.
First, Yin Tianjue handed over the tea, and Concubine Wan took it naturally, took a sip, and then handed a red envelope to Yin Tianjue's hand.
Then, there was Yan Qiqi’s tea.
Yan Qiqi handed the tea to her, but Concubine Wan did not pick it up immediately, but looked at her coolly.
Just when Yan Qiqi was waiting impatiently, Concubine Wan finally opened her mouth.
"Although I am not Jue'er's biological mother, I have always treated him as my biological son. Naturally, I hope that he can marry a woman with both political integrity and talent. You are useless, but Jue'er likes you, and I have nothing to say."
Then, his eyes narrowed, and he continued: "It's fine if you don't have talent or virtue, but you must give birth to a child for Jue'er within a year. This is the duty of a wife. If there is nothing to do after a year, then what will happen to Jue'er?"
He can divorce his wife and marry another."
Yan Qiqi suddenly seemed to have heard a big joke, raised her eyebrows and said, "How long did it take Concubine Wan to marry the emperor before she had Ming'er? I'm very curious about this."
I also learned more or less about her from Yin Tianming.
He once said that it took two years for his mother-in-law to have him in the palace, and it was not easy to conceive him.
He also said that his mother-in-law told him all this and told him to be more filial to her when he grew up.
In addition, as far as she knew, Concubine Wan was thirty-two years old and Ming'er was five. Concubine Wan entered the palace at the age of fifteen and gave birth to Ming'er at the age of seventeen.
In this case, she did not give birth to a child within a year.
"You..." Concubine Wan was speechless immediately. Her eyes were full of anger, but she could not refute.
"Okay, why can't you get along with them again?" Yin Xianglong said angrily, "Having a child is not something that happens overnight, you have to take your time, not to mention they are still young."
Concubine Wan's eyes narrowed slightly, then she looked sad and sobbed, "Isn't this the purpose of my concubine so that my sister in Quanxia can hold her grandson as soon as possible so that she can feel at ease?"
Her words immediately caused Yin Xianglong's expression to change drastically, his handsome face tightened, and after a while, he stood up from the chair.
She took a deep breath and looked at Yan Qiqi with complicated eyes, "Wan'er said it a bit urgently, but it's not unreasonable. You and Jue'er hurry up and give me a grandson as soon as possible, you know.
"
Yan Qiqi couldn't help but roll her eyes. How could it be possible to give birth to a child just by chance? It depends on chance.
What's more, she is still in perfect condition. If she can really give birth to a child, she will really become the Virgin Mary.
Then, Yin Xianglong looked at Yin Tianqi and Situ Jing, who were silent on the side, "And you, you should also hurry up, you know? Qi'er, you are thirty now and don't have a child. There are so many women, how can one
Not even pregnant."
"Yes, I will remember my father's teachings." Yin Tianqi stood up and replied respectfully.
It's not that those women can't conceive children, it's that they are not qualified to bear children for him, and his children can only be born by her.
"Okay, Jue'er and Qi'er, come here, let the women chat here, and let's go out to discuss state affairs." After saying that, Yin Xianglong walked away with his sleeves up.
Yin Tianqi didn't say anything and immediately followed. Yin Tianjue raised his eyes to look at the Queen and Concubine Wan, and said softly: "Aqi, be careful. If anything happens, come to me at the Peace Hall, you know."
Although the women in the palace are not simple, they should be able to deal with them with Ah Qi's ability. I still believe she has this ability.
However, special circumstances cannot be ruled out.
"Yeah, I get it." Yan Qiqi nodded, curled her lips and said with a smile, "I can still deal with a group of tigresses that can only bark randomly."
Her voice was neither loud nor quiet, but everyone in the hall could hear it.
Situ Jing still stared in one direction expressionlessly, occasionally glancing at Yin Tianjue, and then turned away.
However, the expressions of the empress and Concubine Wan changed dramatically, and they both became gloomy.
She wanted to yell and scold, but if she scolded him, wouldn't it mean that she was admitting that she was a tigress? Yan Qiqi didn't say it out by name.
Yin Tianjue burst out laughing, and patted her head helplessly, "You'd better be honest and avoid causing trouble, you know."
Now the Queen and Concubine Wan probably have an even worse impression of her, and they probably hate Ah Qi to death.
Yan Qiqi threw down the big hand on her head, rolled her eyes and said, "I know, you should leave quickly, be careful of your father punishing you."
"Well, let's go." Yin Tianjue said nothing more, turned around and went out.
Situ Jing looked sideways at his back, still feeling very uncomfortable.
He still didn't look at her. Now he didn't expect too much. He just hoped that he could look at her. That was enough.
After he left, Yan Qiqi sat down on a chair calmly, poured herself a cup of tea, sipped it lightly, and occasionally pinched a nut and stuffed it into her mouth.
It was so satisfying to eat that I completely ignored the other three people.
Situ Jing is the niece of Concubine Wan, so naturally she is very close to her, and she keeps chatting with her.
Moreover, she is also the queen's daughter-in-law. Although she is not pleasing to the eye, compared to Yan Qiqi, she is naturally much more pleasing to the eye.
So, he asked Situ Jing some things one after another, and also explained a lot of principles of being a daughter-in-law.
No one paid attention to Yan Qiqi and just pretended that she did not exist.
But because everything she ate was nuts, it kept making a clicking sound, and the whole hall was empty, which made her ears feel uncomfortable.
Finally, when she couldn't bear it anymore, the queen shouted: "You are a vulgar and wild woman, can you please pay attention to the situation? Didn't your parents teach you not to make noise when eating? You are an uncultured and vulgar woman."
