Chapter 302: Chapter 302. He had never thought of marrying Jing Hua

Young Master Fu Yue said softly, “General Yue, you know the Princess’s temper. How can we persuade her?” Yue Zhan frowned and said, “I’ll go find Lin Mo. .” The new emperor had ascended the throne and the imperial court was busy. Lin Mo was not free. West Liang had to submit to the laws of the Western countries. The Lin family was busy marrying Qin Miaomiao again. Red silk was hung in front of the Lin residence. Yue Zhan ignored the guards of the Lin family and rudely barged into the Lin residence. When Lin Xiang saw him, he said unhappily, “Envoy Yue Jiedu barged into the residence of an important official. Is he trying to rebel?” Yue Zhan frowned and said, “Tell Lin Mo to get out.” Lin Mo came out from the study and said, “General Yue is so impressive. However, the Lin family can not be bullied by General Yue at will. General Yue barged into our Lin residence without an invitation. What does that mean?” Yue Zhan said, “The eldest princess of Jinghua drank too much for you and got drunk all day long. Yet, your Lin residence is hung high up with red silk. How can you be at ease as your bridegroom?” Lin Xiang said, “Envoy Yue Jiedu, what does the eldest princess’drinking have to do with my son?” Lin Mo clenched his hands, blue veins popping out on his pale hands. He sighed at Yue Zhan and said, “I hope envoy Yue Jiedu can take good care of the eldest princess.” Yue Zhan stepped forward and raised a fist to hit the side of Lin Mo’s face. “Lin Mo, what kind of man are you!” After Lin Mo was slapped, the guards of the Lin family rushed forward one after another. The Lin Mansion was suddenly in a mess. In the Tai Chi Palace. Lu Chen glanced at Yue Zhan and Lin Mo below and said in a deep voice, “One is the famous ambassador of the Long Xi Jiedu, and the other is the right prime minister, the new high official of the dynasty. “But they are fighting and causing trouble together. Do you want the people of Chang ‘an to laugh at the officials of the imperial court for acting like two or three-year-old children?” Lin Mo knelt down and said, “I know I’m wrong.” Yue Zhan had to kneel down and said, “I shouldn’t have damaged my status, but I think I’m innocent in hitting Lin Mo! Since he can’t respect the princess, why should he provoke the Princess?” Lin Mo pursed his lips tightly and didn’t say anything. Lu Chen punished the two of them for half a year’s salary, and then punished them to write down the etiquette once again. This could be considered a minor punishment and a major admonition. In the Changle Palace, when Qiao Jinniang saw that Lu Chen had returned, she heard about this matter and said, “I don’t think you should punish Yue Zhan. What he said isn’t wrong. “Also, Lin Mo is your brother who grew up together with you, and Jing Hua is your biological sister. Now that you’re the Emperor, can’t you bestow a marriage upon the two of them?” Lu Chen said helplessly, “Just by not taking in concubines, the memorials keep coming like snowflakes, not to mention giving the princess a marriage gift.” Qiao jinniang said, “Can you really turn a blind eye?” “Lin Mo didn’t even beg me.”Lu Chen took the tonic handed over by a palace maid and said to the jinniang, “If Lin Mo asks, I may not ignore it. It’s just that he has never thought of marrying the royal sister.” Lady Qiao Jin frowned and did not quite understand. “As I said before, if you don’t want to marry him, why do you have to provoke him…” She could not persuade young master Lu Chen to favor Lin Mo, but in her heart, she deeply despised Lin Mo. . The days of confinement were difficult to endure. As soon as Ang ‘er was full, Lady Qiao Jin went to the soup pond to wash off the filth on her body. The second prince was full, and the palace hosted a banquet to invite the relatives to attend. Among the relatives, only King Su and his child, Lu Zhen, did not come. Lu Chen granted Lu ang the title of King Pingliang, and gave Yunzhou and Xiliang as Lu Ang’s fiefdoms. It was clear that he was at ease with the Qiao family. When Marquis an Yuan heard that the fiefdoms were Yunzhou and Xiliang, he felt that it did not matter even if he was targeted by all the officials in the court. It would be great if his son-in-law doted on the Qiao family so much. It was a pity that his reputation as a loyal and brave man for the rest of his life might bear the name of a treacherous official who wouldn’t allow His Majesty to take in concubines in the future. When Qiao Jinniang appeared at the Palace Banquet with Ang’er in her arms. Consort Qi and consort Chu both complimented, “The empress is still so slim even after giving birth to two children. She looks like the elder sister of the Prince!” “That’s right. I don’t know how the Empress takes care of herself. Teach us.” Lady Qiao Jin knew that they were complimenting her and said, “It’s all thanks to Xi’er and Ang’er that I don’t have to worry so much.” Jing hua retracted her gaze from Lu Ang and sat down on her seat to drink a glass of wine. The wine was getting less and less intoxicating these days.. Perhaps it was during the palace banquet, so it was impossible to serve any strong wine. Among the relatives, an old princess said, “The Empress has given birth to two sons in succession. Congratulations! I think the next child will definitely be a princess. She has both sons and daughters.” There were very few princesses in the royal family nowadays. The old imperial consort’s words could be considered a good fortune. Lady Qiao Jin said, “Thank you for your kind words, great aunt. I also want to have both children.” On the other hand, some of the clan members who did not have the foresight said, “The empress has just given birth. Why Bother? Why Don’t we persuade His Majesty to accept the harem? The Empress is the head of the six palaces. As long as His Majesty has a princess, the Empress will have both children.” Qiao Jin couldn’t recognize that relative. It must be a princess who was newly accepted by some county king. None of them were worthy of her attention. Qiao Jin gave a light laugh. “Why Bother? If you really think I’m tired, why don’t you call me ‘mother’first? I’ve also accepted you as my goddaughter. It’s considered having both sons and daughters.” That County Princess kept silent. She didn’t think it was a good thing to be the Empress’s goddaughter. When Qiao Jinniang withdrew her gaze, she saw Jing Hua drinking hard. It was very uncomfortable. Perhaps it was because she was not drunk, but the more she drank, the more worried she became. .. After the full moon, it was the mid-autumn Festival soon. This was the first mid-autumn Festival since the new Emperor ascended the throne. It was also the first time Qiao Jinniang, as the Empress, hosted all the officials and their families in Chang ‘an. Before the mid-autumn Festival, many wives had come to see the Jinniang. They were all here to persuade her, as the empress, to be virtuous, to persuade the emperor to take in concubines, and so on.. Qiao Jinniang was annoyed. After punishing a few wives, she could be considered to have had some peace of mind for a while. Until Mrs. Prime Minister Lin came to see her. Qiao Jinniang had met Mrs. Prime Minister Lin once before. She was a demure and well-mannered civil servant’s wife, and some of them respected men more or less. What impressed Qiao Jinniang the most was that Mrs. Prime Minister Lin walked as if she was floating.., the steps on her head were really able to remain motionless. Prime Minister Lin’s wife was here to send an invitation card to the Empress for Lin Mo’s wedding. The Lin family naturally did not expect the empress to be able to come out of the palace to attend the wedding banquet. Even the Empress’s younger brother might not be able to get the empress to attend the ceremony. Lady Qiao Jin ordered the Palace Maids to take out a lot of good things from the storeroom and gave them to Prime Minister Lin’s wife. She said, “This is a small token of my appreciation. I wish Lin Mo and Qin Miaomiao a long and loving life together.” Lady Lin Xiang said awkwardly, “Your Highness, I have another unkind request. Mo’er’s marriage is imminent, but on eldest princess Jing Hua’s side…” Lady Qiao Jin asked, “What happened on Jing Hua’s side?”
