In the carriage, Lin Wanrong let out a long breath. She was surrounded by so many students at the entrance of the college. She felt that she had no place to put her hands and feet, and she wished she could crawl into the cracks in the ground.
Lin Jinyan patted the back of Lin Wanrong's cold hand and smiled gently:
"Sister, don't be afraid. Your life is your own, not in other people's mouths or eyes. Just live your life comfortably."
Lin Wanrong nodded, then lowered her eyes in annoyance and said:
"Yan'er, am I useless? I am my sister and should take care of you, but I let you take care of me instead."
Lin Jinyan: "How could it be useless? I haven't been in the house these years. Fortunately, my sister has been with my grandmother. If something happens to me in the future, I can rest assured that my sister is with my grandmother."
Lin Wanrong heard the words and said anxiously: "Bah, bah, bah, what are you talking about! Touch the wood, how could you be in trouble again? It will definitely not happen!"
Lin Jinyan Congshan Ruliu touched the frame of the car and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I'm just talking, sister, don't think too much."
Lin Wanrong scolded: "You can't say this casually. Even if something happens in the future, I just want it to fall on my head. You can be safe."
Two days later, a celebration banquet was held for the Northern Army and King Xiang in the palace, and all the officials of the second rank and above in the court were present.
In front of the palace, the Emperor was very happy. He not only rewarded the Dingbei Army, but also gave countless rewards to the Gu family. Gu Yichen was even personally named a fourth-grade General of the Military Guard. He gathered a lot of good stories about the four generals.
After the rewards were given to the Northern Army, the emperor held the wine glass and laughed loudly:
"People have suffered terribly from natural disasters this year, and all taxes have been exempted. In order to reduce expenses, all the palaces have kept things simple in the past few months, so the celebration banquets for King Xiang and the Dingbei Army were held together. King Xiang has made great contributions to the disaster relief this time, so he should be very generous. reward."
King Xiang: "It is the duty of a minister to share the worries of the imperial brother. I do not ask for rewards."
"Hahaha, I know your Xianyun Yehe's temperament doesn't like to get involved in the court, so I won't reward you for working as an errand. I ordered people to collect some rare objects for you to play with, and Liuyun Villa in the east of the city was also given to you. Well, I will reward you with more money so that you can be your rich prince."
When Prince Xiang heard this, he stood up and held the wine glass with a simple smile:
"Brother Huang knows my feelings. I have been coveting that Shanzhuang for a long time. Thank you very much for your willingness to part with me. I would like to give you a drink."
The emperor raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp. He waved his hand to signal Prince Xiang to sit down and looked at Chu Chengyi with a loving smile:
"Chengyi has done his best to help with the disaster this time. His contribution is indispensable, and he should be well rewarded. You are so young and promising, have you ever wanted to come to the court to help the emperor's uncle? As long as you are willing, you can choose the job you want."
Chu Chengyi looked like he was afraid of being caught as a young man, and waved his hands repeatedly:
"Uncle Huang, please don't send me errands. My eldest brother and second brother are so busy all day that their feet never touch the ground. I don't want to be like them. I'm used to being lazy. I just follow my father, the queen, my mother and my concubine to fulfill my filial piety. Can."
When the emperor heard this, although his face was serious, there was a smile in his eyes:
"Are you trying to fulfill your filial piety? You are obviously lazy! You have learned bad things from your father."
Chu Chengyi picked up the wine glass: "Uncle Huang, if you need me for temporary errands in the future, I promise to be on call and have to do errands every day. I really can't do it. I'll punish myself with a drink, so don't be angry with me. Alright."
After speaking, he raised his head and drank all the wine in the glass, drinking freely and boldly.
