Chapter 137 Can I Really Thank You?
Ji Yanqing spoke up to resolve the emperor's concerns, and the emperor's mood visibly improved.
Ji Yanqing took this opportunity to ask what he was worried about: "I saw that Princess Anping seemed to have a poor appetite today. What troubles did she encounter?"
Ye Jinshu, who was originally complaining about why Jiang Sisi was not arranged to sit with her, looked up suddenly when he heard this. Why were they suddenly talking about her?
The Queen was sitting at the highest seat, so she naturally knew that Ji Yanqing's eyes had been on Ye Jinshu just now, and the Emperor also knew it.
As the saying goes, one should be grateful to the one who eats the food and be soft-handed to the one who takes the food. Now that the emperor has taken over the city, he has to do things. Hearing this, he understood what was meant. He turned his head and looked at Ye Jinshu lovingly, and asked softly, "Jinshu, why do you have a poor appetite? Who made you angry? Tell me, and I will take care of it for you."
Upon hearing this, the Minister of Public Administration quickly hid behind his colleagues, muttering to himself, "You can't see me, you can't see me, you can't see me."
Some people who originally wanted to cause trouble for Ye Jinshu but ultimately did not do so for various reasons secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they did not believe the rumors outside and thought that Ye Jinshu had fallen out of favor.
It’s a good thing I didn’t get to be the first to do so.
Who would have known that the eldest prince of Dongming Kingdom was not the one who proposed to Ye Jinshu just for the sake of marriage as rumored, but was truly proposing to her.
If Ye Jinshu gets married, she might become the queen.
The Queen of Dongming Kingdom and the Queen of Chen Kingdom, if we only talk about national strength, Dongming Kingdom is more powerful.
Those who had originally planned to embarrass Ye Jinshu at the banquet gave up their plans after the emperor said this.
Although I am unwilling, there is nothing I can do.
However, more and more people were paying attention to Ye Ruoyan. Everyone said that Ye Jinshu and Ye Ruoyan didn't get along, and they didn't know whether the two would have a conflict under such circumstances.
At a banquet, everyone had evil intentions.
Some were just watching the fun, some were preparing to stir up trouble, some were trying to sow discord around Ye Ruoyan, some were worried that Ye Jinshu would make trouble, and some were afraid that something unusual might happen at the banquet and that innocent people would be affected.
Only Ye Jinshu has a relatively simple mind.
because.
She was full.
After she left with the Queen, she took her to a side hall and kept feeding her until her stomach was full before the banquet began.
It was also because of this that Ji Yanqing noticed that Ye Jinshu seemed to have a poor appetite and refused to eat.
Now that the emperor asked, Ye Jinshu hesitated and looked at the queen.
After seeing the queen nod, she honestly said, "I just had some snacks with the queen, and they tasted good. I accidentally ate too much. It's not that I have no appetite, I just can't eat anymore."
The Queen smiled and said, "Just now this child was wronged, so I took some food to comfort her, but she ate it all."
When Ye Jinshu heard this, she realized that the queen was helping her to file a complaint. After realizing this, she had a feeling that she was indeed the queen! Even her way of filing a complaint was so different from others.
The emperor and the empress had been married for a long time, and the emperor also knew what the empress meant, so he said, "Who is so blind as to dare to offend me on this day?"
The Queen looked at Ye Jinshu and motioned for him to speak. Ji Yanqing also smiled at Ye Jinshu, and the atmosphere at the scene instantly changed from a happy banquet to a scene of a child complaining.
There is no doubt that whoever says this from Ye Jinshu's mouth will inevitably be reprimanded by the emperor. It should be said that the reprimand is just a trivial matter. With Ji Yanqing watching, this matter can be a big deal or a small matter.
Ye Jinshu opened his mouth, and the hearts of those present who had a grudge against Ye Jinshu were in their throats.
Especially a certain marquis and princess, every time they saw Ye Jinshu move, their hearts moved with him.
Whenever there was a conflict between other people and Ye Jinshu, Ye Jinshu would usually be fine and they would be taught a lesson by Ye Jinshu. However, in the matter between the Marquis and the Princess, Ye Jinshu was put in solitary confinement.
The Marquis felt that his name would definitely be spoken by Ye Jinshu.
But Ye Jinshu opened his mouth and said nothing, saying, "I don't know. There have been too many people who have troubled me during this period. I can't remember them all."
Everyone:.
It cannot be said that the hanging heart is finally at ease, it can only be said that the hanging heart is still dead.
Ye Jinshu might as well have named the emperor directly instead of saying this. Wouldn't it be like letting the emperor investigate it himself?
Many of the ministers present felt guilty. It was true that many of them had received orders from the emperor to try to discredit Ye Jinshu's reputation so that she could step down from the position of Crown Princess smoothly. However, since the emperor received the news that the prince of Dongming Kingdom was coming to propose marriage, he withdrew the order.
Most of the things that Ye Jinshu encountered afterwards were spontaneous actions of the nobles who were on good terms with Ye Ruoyan.
If the emperor really wanted to investigate, even if he avoided the part he ordered, he could still arrest many people.
The emperor was about to say something when Ji Yanqing smiled and said, "Jinshu, come with me to Dongming. No one in Dongming will dare to give you a hard time."
It seems that Ji Yanqing is just trying to comfort Ye Jinshu, but in fact he is hinting to the emperor that he likes Ye Jinshu as a person, and he is good to Chen State only because Chen State is the country where Ye Jinshu grew up. If Ye Jinshu is wronged in this country, it is not certain whether she will help Chen State when she goes to Dongming in the future.
Of course the emperor also understood.
He didn't think that Ye Jinshu would really do anything to Chen State, but with Ji Yanqing's support, Ye Jinshu had to give an explanation for the grievances he had suffered.
Seeing that Ji Yanqing talked to her at the banquet without any hesitation, Ye Jinshu felt that Ji Yanqing was quite shameless. Their marriage had not been officially decided yet, but he had such an attitude, which was quite confident.
"Whether I can go to Dongming with you or not is not up to me."
With just one sentence, Ji Yanqing suppressed his flirting.
The people who were eavesdropping openly finally understood that Ye Jinshu treated everyone equally and was so disrespectful to them.
"Jinshu, why didn't you tell me about the injustice you've suffered recently? You're already being distant with your uncle before you even get married."
After hearing this, Ye Jinshu sighed and said, "I gave them a good lesson every time they came to trouble me. They basically left crying, so I didn't complain."
The emperor thought Ye Jinshu was playing tricks on him: What a good thing that he didn't complain.
"Okay, okay, okay," the emperor said three "okay" words in a row. For a moment, he didn't know what to say. After a while, he said, "Jinshu, do you want me to make the decision for you?"
Ye Jinshu glanced at Ji Yanqing, then looked at the emperor again: "Forget it, Uncle Emperor, those who provoke me are beaten and cried by Xiao Cui. Instead of punishing them again, it is better to reward Xiao Cui."
Just like that, Xiao Cui got a bunch of rewards for no apparent reason:?
Should she thank him?
Can I really thank you for the reward I received for helping the princess beat the daughter of a court official?
